Citizen Trains Room

A writer in Romance called on Citizen
George Francis Train the other day
and was ta ke n by that dignitary to his room.
He says:
"Citizen Trains room is larger than a
dry-goods box, but smaller than the ordi
nary hall bedroom. In that space of 9X6
feet was GRO wded a narrow bed, small
washstand and Il big fire escape rope, an ord
mary pine chair, a bureau, n trunk, a case
of pigeonholes, Citizen Train and myself.
The Citizen sat on the chair, on the bed.
When the Citizen wanted to pass between
the bureau and the bed l had to lie full
length on the bed. And this was the sleep
ing room the home, of n man worth millions.
Everything in that room, bed, bureau,
washstand, trunk, pigeenhoies, everything.
is covered, Uttered, splashed and splattered
with innumerable newspaper clippings,
papersof allsorts and conditions. They were
on the floor. We trampled them. The
closets yawning door revealed heap as
high as the Citizens six-foot-one.
At the head of every newspaper, on each
particular clipping, on every letter and
card, OH every one OF that nultftudinous
heap OF papers and scraps was the name
George Francis Train. Every line. every
word in all that confused, crazy, chaotic
mass pertained to the Citizen"

He Explains Its Provisions and the
Object in View.
Senator Mills of Texas, speaking of the
bill introduced by him Thursday provid-
ing for the coinage Of the silver bullion in
dimes and their payment in.the ordinary ex-
peuditures OF administration, said that the
fractional coins We're provided for in prefer
euce to the dollar because they We're more
convenient in use.
1t provides, secondly, that in case Of
temporary deficiency in revenues from any
cause Trea sury notes shall be issued and
paid out instead of selling bonds for gold.
The bonds bear interest and constitute a
charge on the people. the notes do not. The
government snoIid do business on the same
principle that any man OF good common
sense traESactS his business. He never
pays interest IL he can get money without
There was 10 danger OF fnila ting the cur
rsncy, because the notes are to be destroyed
when returned TO the Treasury. Thirdly,
when the gold reserve is over one hundred
millions the Treasury is i'll easy circuin-
stances and may redeem its notes in either
gold or silver, as it may be desired by the
holder Of its notes.
When the reserve is under one hundred
millions the cautionary signal Is up and
the Secretary should protect the govern
ment by paying in standard silver coins
aud stop a run that may be made 10 en-
bdrrass the Treasury aEd compel 1t 10 sell
bonds to foreign and domestic capitalists
seeking Investment for idle millions. To
is utterly fallacious, and that is that it
would put gold at prefnium-that the
standard would be expelled ana silver would

The statement published in yesterdays

that the printing office was in hazardous

But because the floors of the building are

serious alarm.

A grand jury condemned this building in
1888; everybody seems to have forgotten
that.
II eau do nothing more than urge this

The right thing for Congress to do would
be to relieve the strain on the present
building hy removing part OF the weight
from its overburdened floors, and TO sup
ply funds for the completion of the new
building by night and day work. with an
increased force. When that is done the
recommendations of Mr.. Benedict to the
Fifty third Congress should be acted on
and new printing office erected OH the
present site. This is the right thing

WILL MISREPRESENTATION.

The most important thing TO be con-
sidered in connection with acetylene gas
is the fact that it is still an experiment and
has never been manufactured for conf
nercial purposes. The claim is made that
q certain carbide company is establishing
a plant at Niagara, Il. Y, where it is ex-
pected to convert lime and coal, by an cleo
tric process, into calcic carbide. But the
lime and coal must be shipped from dis
tance to Niagara, and as the carbide
from which it is manufactured must then
he transported from that place to be con-
verted into acetylene in different parts of
the country it is difficult TO understand how
it can be supplied at competing price
with ordinary retort gas. Especially is
this true when it Is considered that the
Manufacture of carbide by electricity is an
exceedingly expensive process.
Until acetylene has passed the expert
mental stage it should never be made SUBJ
iect for speculation. When its promoters
can show by actual, practical test that it
can be manufactured and sold in commercial
quantities at reasonable price it will
be time to ask the public to purchase stock
for the organization of companies. The
present system of selling stock in two COM
panies, one for tie manufacture of carbide
and the other for the conversion of the car
bide into acetyIenc by local organizations
looks ''fishy,'' to say the least. Perhaps
there is nothing wrong in this double
headed method of roping in the public,
but suppose the carbide company should for
any reason fail, neglect, or refuse to supply
its material to the acetylene companies,
what is to become OF their stock?
Better look into the question before in
vestng.

When Satan came to Congress the first

Under the baneful influence of these

of the best stores have moved from The
