AMERICA LEADS THE WORLD IN
RAILROAD SPEED.

In high speeds the United States
seems just now to hold the world S
record. Neither England nor any
other country in the world has any
trains as fast for the distance as the
Empire State Express, which runs
40 miles at 5O.7 miles an hour, in
Guiding four stops; or as fast for the
distance as the deiunct Exposition
Flyer of last summer, which ran 964
miles al 1872 miles an hour, includ-
ing nine stops.
Among the very fast special runs
we find the following pretty authen-
tic records of performances in the
United States, which, so far as I
know. have not been equaled in Eng
land since run made on the Great
Western, in 1913, Of So miles at 6S
miles an hour; and that was not up
to the best of those given here. Sep

ern Church, but before the ceremony
let US look at the bride and the
groom. The latter wore the red uni
form of a general of the hussars,
while the bride wore jeweled crown
and gown of white brocaded silk
with a mantle of strawberry colored
velvet trimmed with gold and a
double row of ermine. She was
dressed in the presence of the Gar
ina, the Princess of Wales and the
grand duchess. After the Gar had
been notified that she was ready she
entered the malachite hall of the
Winter Palace with four court digni-
taries bearing her train. AS the pro-
cession started for the cathedral a
salute of forty-one guns was fired.
The party was met at the entrance
of the church by the metropolitan OF
St. Petersburg, the holy synod and
the court clergy, bearing holy water,
crosses and sacred books. The met
ropolitan blessed the bride and
kissed her on the shoulder and she
kissed him.
Then the Car was conducted to a
position on the right of dais that
had been raised within the chancel
and the princess was conducted to a
place on the left of the dais. Then
Psalm 1877 was sung and the metro
politan made a little address upon
the Importance of the married state.
Then he said: Hast thou. Nicholas,
a good and unconstrained will and a
firm determinat ton to take unto thy
self this woman, Alix, whom thou
seest before thee" To this the Gar
answered: "Ihave, reverend father"
Then the metropolitan asked him if
he had vowed himself to another
bride and the Gar replied that he
had not. The same questions were
asked OF the princess and she made
similar answers. After a prayer the
priest took two crowns and placed
them upon the heads of the groom
and the bride and blessed them.
Then the couple walked three times
around the dais while the choir sang.
After this the Gar kissed his bride.
All present congratulated them and
the ceremony ended by 'Te Deum"
and a salute of 3O1 guns from the
fortress. This is the way that the
Gar of all the Russians takes unto
himself a wife. All the world wishes
that he may have a happy life and
that he may educa tie his people in such
a way that they may become more ca
pable of self governments Brooklyn

THE YOUNG If. ID. HAS MUCH TO

When a young man reports for
duty on the house staff he usually
has mind we'll stocked with the
knowledge which books and teach
ers can impart, but he has seen little
of a practical sort. Books and teach
ers can do no more than does an ar
fist who paints what seems to him
an accurate representation of liv-
ing human face. To some the work
may appear to be good and truth
full portrait; others may see little re-
semblance to the subject. One must
see disease in order to know disease.
Some of the men just entering upon
their hospital service are little too

pleasant; but month or two of ex-
perience usually convinces them that
they do not know so much as they

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
OTHER SIDE OF THE MOON.

An Interesting Lesson In Astronomy For
Bright Boys and Girls.
One evening after had given my lee.
ture on ga Trip. to Starland" little
boy came to me and asked me why
had not said anything about the "othe1
side of the moon. He was very much
surprised when / told him that no one
has ever seen the other side of the moon.
Sometimes we get little glimpses of it,
round the corner, as it were, and as
tronomers call this by the long word IL
bration, which, put into simple Ian
guage, means swinging or swaying
While in the long run the moon keeps
the same face toward the earth, it is
not SO from day to day. Sometimes the
people on earth can see a little farther
round one side of the moon and some
times a little farther round the other
side. This is called ibration in longi-
tude. Sometimes we can see little
more of the south pole and then lit
tie more of the north pole. This is call
ed librati ~ iSSde. When we are
able TO look O7Sf whatever edge Of the
moon is uppermost when it is near the
horizon, that is called diurnal libra
tion, or daily swaying On account Of
these librations or swayings we see
more than one-half of the moons sur
face.
The moon has three motions: Firstly,
as it is the attendant Of the earth, it
1,oo, ,o,,,d oYd ,ornd fI,a oo,.4b. con
ondly, as it has to go wherever the earth
goes, and as the earth goes around the
sun, the moon aud the earth go round
the sun together; thirdly. the moon
turns round on its axis once month,
in exactly the same time that it takes
in going around the earth. The days
and nights on the moon are therefore
about two weeks in length.
We see today precisely the same face
of the moon which Galilei saw when
he first looked at it with his telescope.
The opposite face has never been seen
from the earth and probably never will
be. Let me show you why this is. Put
a ball upon the center of a round table
and call it the earth. Stand looking at
the ball with your back to the door
and call yourself the moon. Now move
round the table, always looking at the
ball in the middle of the table, and you
will find that when you have been once
round the table you will also have made
your body turn once round upon itself,
for your back is again toward the door,
If you had fastened a string to the han
die of the door before you started to go
round the table, and had fastened the
other end round your s>sm, You would
find that you had wound the string once
around you when you had made one
turn round the table. In the same man
ner the moon reyolves round the earth,
keeping always the same side turned
toward us.
In the olden times people believed
that on the side of the moon we cannot
see there is a beautiful land, where all
the good people go when they die, while
all those who were wicked on earth have
to dwell on the side of the moon turned
toward us, where they are forever tor
mented by the sight of the scenes OF
their former wickedness. This, howev-
er, is only legend or story, which no
one believes now.-Mary Proctor in
New York World.

THE IuDGEsHIP CONTEST.

That man Richards, we admire him
and feel great deal of warm friend
ship towards him. lie is able, bright
and credit to the bar and we shall
ever rejoice for every step higher he
rises. But he made false step, an
one, when be allowed
himself to be placed in opposition to
such judicial light as Judge Nugent.
The supreme ability of Nugent is
such that when we are forced to
choose between the two, we must,
following the true dictates of unbi-
ased judgment, turn to the Judge
Though it may cost a pang to turn
from Richards, we must do it when
an absolute muster in legal learning
and judicial ability is in the field
against him.
Another thing that is unfortunate
for Mr.. Richards is the county seat
fight that is on this year in his own
county Antagonstic forces are sure
to arise and no man can palliate them
all, and IN such cases we all know
what slashing is done when men lose
sight of everything but their one
dearest object. We want to see Mr..
Richards one of the most honored
men of Idaho, but he erred in run
ning at this time, where things are
adverse to his election. 1t is folly
for the most powerful force to hurl
itself against solid stone wall, and
Nugent's record is stone wall.

,enger service ought to be conducted

senger service ought to be conducted
as satisfactorily as our mail service.
The fact that few hundred mil
lionaires lay claim to the cars and
railways goes to show that legislative
corruption has been very rank and
i'll smelling, but no honest man has
any other use for it. In view of the
fact that the present system of rail-
roads breeds nillionaires, breeds gen
eral discomfort, and is likely to breed
a revolution, no fair, frank and equi-
table editor will ever hint that be
cause several greedy millionaires own
a lot of cars and iron rails, their
dangerous manner Of doing business
must not he interfered with.
In spite of the fact that greedy
corporations ''posess the instruments"
used in transporting the mails, the
government system of mail carriage
Is an arrangement whereby the posses
sion of instruments of carriage is
prevented from forming any conspic-
nous part of the business. Why
should it cut such a figure in the
carrying of freights and passengers?
We defy the Oregonian to give any
satisfactory reason.
