Training a r.cconntlre.

1t may not be generally known that
locomotives intea6ed for express trains
require as much training, in their way,
for fast running as do race horses. The
Pennsylvania Railroad company builds
its own engines, and those built for ex-
press trains are known as class p. They
are very large and built, with slight va
riations, after tie pattern Of the big
English engine imported into this coun-
try several years ago, and which at that
time was a curiosity in its way. When
one of these big engines is taken out of
the shops to be placed on the road, in
stead of putting it to the work it is in
tended for at once it is run for two OF
three weeks on some one Of the local
branches in order 10 train it, SO to speak,
for faster running BY this means all
the bearings and journals connected
with the running gear become settled
to their work, for should anything about
the new machine not work harmonious
" there is ample time TO adjust the de-
feet Usually the new engine proves
troublesome ON account Of its propensity
to make fast time, ard at almost every
station the train is found to be Il little
ahead Of schedule time and must wait
for from ten seconds TO a minute. Phil

Northern Colony In Georgia.

Emigrants from the northwest con-
tinue TO arrive in Americas in small
parties, bound for Wilcox county, where
go, 600 people from that region will set
tie this winter ON land purchased for
the Fitzgerald colony, Ex-Governor
Northen is now in Wilcox, where he has
options on $1,000 acres of land in addi-
ton to that already purchased through
him for the colony.
Many of the colonists are Union sol
diers As soon as the charter is granted
the land will be surveyed into lots to
suit purchasers, and IL, 600 acres will
be laid off into town lots. The streets
will be wide, and doubtless it will be
one of the best laid off towns in the
south. The site for the township has
not been selected, nor has the name been
suggested, but it is thought that one of
the most appropriate names that could
be given is Northen City. The colonists
will begin to arrive in full force about
Oct. I. 1t is claimed that many of the
colonists are worth from $4,000 to
$50, 600 The company has capital OF
$500, 900. They will expend $3.50, 600
in buying the lands, and $3.50, 900 in
improvements. Sawmills and other in
dustries will be established; schools and
churches will be established also. Those
who have come have met with warm

A New Re.trictlon on Marrlage.

A most ridiculous discussion arose the
other evening at cosmopolitan dinner
party. Conversation tagged slightly,
and wicked Yankee launched an APP
pie of discord i'll the shape of the state
ment, now well known in London, that
bill was being framed in the house Of
lords forbidding a man TO marry his
widows cousin A French lady made
cutting remarks about the established
church of England and its restrictions
A French colonel ponderously declared
that the depopulation Of France would
prevent the French government from
putting any such limitation on mar
riage, which was already difficult
enough III this fair land Sundry Amer
leans rejoiced in Phariseelile manner
over the absolute freedom Of our own
beloved country, as this was evidently
not a case of the prohibited degrees,
and finally the discussion bid fair to de-
generate into a serious dispute when
the author of this turmoil mildly sug-
gested that as yet no man had after his
death taken any interest in any Of his
widows female relatives, which put a
sudden end to the political theological
debate then raging. Philadelphia Tel

John Thomas Davidge, the colored man

Z. c. Stewart, was taken from the Jail
here late last night by Sheriff Dove and
.carried to Baltimore, to be kept there until
the circuit court -convenes here on the frs
Monday in October, when he will have his
trial.
The authorities decided here today to put
a stop to all rumors of lynching by putting
him in a place of safety. AS was stated
in yesterdays Star, there was really no
serious indications of his being lynched,
yet certain rumors kept coming in during
the morning. and to set at rest all such ex-
element it was decided that the prisoner
should be removed. Samuel Davidge, the
prisoners father, came down today in time
to see his son safely on the train for Bal
timore and seemed very much relieved, for
he was under the impression that his son
might be lynched. He told your CORE

children up in the right way, and seemed

Mr.. SOVEREIGN'S BOYCOTT
Knights Of Labor in Washington May Ap-
ply 1t Gently
Not as Good Opportunity Here ms
Neutrality-suspicious. for
Saturday Night.

Yesterday was the day appointed by
Knights of Labor for the boycotting of Ia
tional bank notes by that order. Accord
ing to Mr.. Sovereign's directions members
of the order were to decline to receive na-
tional bank notes in payment of wages or
in change at stores or banks. The boy
colt was to be general. going into effect in
all portions of the country at the same
time.
1t Is understood that members of the
order in the District will obey the spirit of
Mr.. Sovereign's advice as far as practical
BILE, but will not carry it out to the letter
if insistance upon it should jeopardize their
interests with their employers.
That is, they will request that they be
given other kinds of money and will make
1t known that they prefer silver certificates
and treasury notes to national bank notes,
but will not carry their objection to the
point of raising serious issues between
themselves and their employer over the
matter.
As the majority of the workingmen will
receive their pay next Saturday night, 1t
cannot be ascertained to what degree the
boycott has been successfuh in this city.
There is not as much opportunity here
for the reason that the bulk of the cur
rency used in Washington is composed of
silver certificates and treasury notes. This
arises from the fact that four times a
month the department employees are paid
off in new bills of this character. and this
class of money predominates In the clrcula-
ton Of the city.
