Its nice to be popular The de-
mand for the nomination of John X.
Cowen as the ring candidate for Con-
grcss was so overwhelming that Cowen
could not possibly refuse. Cowen has
been accredited with being an indie
pendent but it appears that the indie
pendence didn't strike in deep enough
to prevent his acceptance of the nomi-
nation to Office by his alleged enemies,
the ring. There are some mighty fun

THE TEHUANTEPEC ROAD.
A Railway Which Has Been Looked
For For Years.

The Tehuantepec Railway is finish
ed. The last spike has been driven
in the steel highway that has been
looked for and hoped for through
many years. and all that remains to
complete the formal opening of the
road is the off cial acceptance by
work of the contractors.
The Tehuantepec road is not, as
many have supposed, the realization
of the Eads scheme Of ship railway
that was to carry loaded vessel
from one ocean TO another. II is
like the Panama line, an ordinary
railroad, where freight will be taken
from ships On one side of the
isthmus and loaded again into ships
on the other side. Unlike the
Panama road, however, it is not the
property of a private corporation,
and is not tied up by contracts or
discriminating agreements that
would prevent it from being an open
| highway of commerce. 1t is the
property of the Mexican Govern
ment, and if the announcements
| heretofore made are to be believed,
| it will give the same service on the
same terms to all who send their
goods over it.
The Tehuantepec Railroad is, in a
way at present disadvantage with
| the Panama line. It is longer, for
it's route is 205 miles from ocean to
ocean, against the AZ miles of the
Panama road; the height to be over
come is 700 feet, against the 300 feet
at the southern isthmus, and the
harbors at the termini of the line are
not yet in condition to admit large
vessels. On the other hand, the
Tehuantepec Railroad cuts large
slice out of the middle of the water
Journey between San Francisco and
the Gulf, the Mississippi valley and
the Atlantic cities. From San Fran
cisco to New York by Panama is an
average voyage of 6,063 miles. By
Tehuantepec it is reduced to 1890, a
clear saving of LIB miles. From
San Francisco to New Orleans by
Panama is 5,419 miles, saving of
1857 miles.
The Importance of this road to
San Francisco. if the promises made
in it's behalf are carried out, can be
seen at a glance IF San Francisco
merchants may charter their own
vessels, ship their goods across the
isthmus by a road that is not tied UP
to the American transcontinental
lines by any subsidy or traffic agree
ment, the Southern Pacific can never
again bind the commerce of the
State in the kind of shackles it has
used SO mercilessly in the past. II
can never put rates up to the point
reached when the Pacific Mail and
the clipper lines were controlled by
it's subsidies, and the merchants
were cowed by its apparently bound
less powers. f. Examiner.

New National Park.

New YORK, Aug. 26. - General
Daniel E. Sickles has a scheme for
the construction of a grand ma
tional park, which will include the
battlefield and other historic points
of interest at Gettysburg. The pur-
chase of something like 1000 acres

about $500 acres more. His plan
contemplates the establishment of
a military post at Gettysburg, as
well as a soldiers home and Indian

Coveted Coins.

There lives at Rising Fawn, Ga, ne
gro rs years of age who has under his
tongue silver quarter which he has car
ried in that place for 36 years without ever
having removed it. His name is Thomas
jackson, and he has a nephew whose name
is George Jackson. George Jackson has
under has tongue silver half dollar that
he has carried for the same length Of time
as his uncle without ever removing 1t.
These two negroes were slaves of a
wealthy holder named jackson, and 1t was
during those days that these coveted coins
were placed where they now remain. They
were given the coins one Sunday afternoon
by couple of old time sports who were
counting at the jackson family. For fear
that their master would relieve them Of
the coins they were placed where they
now are and have been kept in thhe same
place because of superstitious belief
With the exception Of being somewhat
worn and darkened around the edges they
look like any old silver piece Large sums
of money have been offered for these pieces
as souvenirs, but nothing will induce their
owners to sell them. Pittsburg Dispatch.

GEM IN VERSE;.
The Chambered Nautilus.

INC SdutluSs
This is the ship of pearl which poets feign
Sails the unshadowed main.
The venturous bark that filings
On the sweet summer wind it's purpled wings
In CULTS enchanted, where the siren sings
And coral reefs lie bare,
Where the cold sea maids rise to sun their
streaming hair.
Its webs of living gauze no more unfurl.
Wrecked is the ship Of pearl,
And every chambered cell,
Where its dim dreaming life was won't to dwell
AS the frail tenant shaped his growing shell,
Before thee lies revealed
Its irised ceiling rent, its sunless crypt I'M
sealed.
Year after year beheld the silent toll
That spread his lustrous coil.
Still as the spiral grew,
He left the last years dwelling for the new.
Stole with soft step its shining archway
through,
Built up it's idle door,
Stretched in its last found home and knew the
old no more
Thanks for the heavenly message brought by
thee,
Child of the wandering sea,
Cast from her lap, forlornl
From thy dead lips cleaner note is born
Than ever Triton blew from wreathed hornl
While on my ear it rings,
Through the deep cares Of thought hear a
voice that sings
Build thee more stately mansions, o my soul,
AS the swift seasons roll!
Leave thy low vaulted past!
Let each new temple, nobler than the last,
Shut thee from heaven with dome more vast
Till thou at length art free,
Leaving thine outgrown shell by lfe's unrest
ing sea ~.
