There has been much ado about moth

States Marshal Mckay and United States
District Attorney Clark were present at

themselves as TO whether or not a viola

to grow out Of the meeting than by at

OF events II may be that the gentlemen
sympathize with the Cuban patriots. but
their attendance upon the meeting was
not necessarily an evidence Of it, nor did
it indicate that the officials would relax in
the least degree their vigilance in en-
forcing the neutrality laws. If the Cubans
or their friends in Florida were to at
tempt to break those laws they would find
Messrs. Mckay and Clark performing their
duties in a manner so vigorous as to be
quite discouraging to them.

If the county commissioners carry out
their idea Of trying to drain Tybee Island
they should make IT condition that the
cattle and hogs on the island shall be re-
moved or fenced in. There are droves of
almost worthless cattle and hogs all over
the island. and they ruin the drains and
bitches that are not filled by the drifting
sand. 1t would be a waste of money to at
tempt to keep open the bitches on Tybee,
but If the cattle and hog nuisance could
be abated through such expenditures. the
loss would not be total

Some OF the republican papers, notably
the Philadelphia Press. is endeavoring to
make it appear that the administration
after peremptorily demanding an apology
from Spain for firing upon the American
flag, is now disposed to let the matter pass
t.lthous any further effort to obtain
a satisfactory adjustment Of il. Criticism
of this sort is inexcusable. There is
nothing to indicate that the administra-
ton does not intend to insist upon its
demand for an apology. Spain has said
she will make proper and satisfactory
reparation II, on Investigation, she finds
she has committed a wrongful act.
She has made an Investigation, and it is
announced that the new Spanish minister
is now on his way to Washington and is
the bearer Of an important Communication
to our government.
We do not want an apology from Spain
unless we are entitled to it. We believe
we are entitled it, and unless that belief
is changed, by evidence produced by Spain,
we shall insist upon it, even il force has
to be used to obtain it, First, however,
We must DC SURE we are right. SPAN
asked for time in which to make reply
to our demand, and her request was
granted. Because there has been delay
it doesn't follow that the demand for
an apology has been abandoned. and the
efforts of the enemies of the administers
ton to make it appear so can have no
weight with fair-minded men of any
political party.
1t is just possible that from a legal
point of view this country is at present
engaged in war. and that the war has
been going on for years and years. Sec
rotary Hoke Smith has asked Secretary
Dan Lamont to advise him whether or
not the Seminole war is still on. There
is before the interior department a case
involving lands formerly Occupied by
Seminole Indians. 1t is claimed by one
party to the case that the war has never
been officially declared closed. hence it
remains officially open. Secretary Smith
cannot find the official winding-up of the
war, and as the proper adjudication of the
case depends on that point, he has asked
the Secretary of War to inform him on
the subject. The war secretary will prob
ably bring the war to an end at once, il
it has not been done already
Twelve or fifteen years ago the great
financial centers were always more or
less shaken by plausible rumors of the
death of the ruler of any country whose
securities were largely held in the mar
kets But the financial centers in cur
rent days are harder TO rattle" than
they We're some years ago. Only a few
days ago a neatly concocted story OF the
death of Queen Victoria was received
in the money marts. There wasn't even a
hutter in consequence, as the promoters
Of the canard hoped there would be.
Monarchs grow less and less important
as the years 30 by. and the probabilities
are that when true report Of the queens
death is sent out, the even tenor OF the
markets win not be IN the least degree
disturbed.

The fast run which was made on the

miles an hour for 1873 miles, was beat
en- the very next day, another special
train carrying newspapers having run
from Albany to Syracuse, I47. 81 miles i'll
1870 minutes equal to IS. % miles an hour.
Nothing is said in the report about the
amount of time occupied in running

The weight of the two cars of this train

ID. G. Moffatt of Denver, formerly
president of the Rio Grande, is at the
head of a new company, to build a line
from Denver to Cripple Creek. 1t will
require but 81 miles of new track, have
easier grades aud be sixty miles shorter

their track to standard guage as far as
Symes. The new organization is incor-
porated under the title of the Denver &

In the valley of the Ohio river and its
tributaries the drought still continues and
navigation, from all accounts, is practic-
ally suspended. The local papers from
tina: section contain notices of passenger
trains being pulled off on account of
the scarcity of water for locomotives. At
PittsbuTg there are 10000 tons of track
material in boats which has been loaded
and waiting since last April to be ship
ped to ST.. Louis by water. Owing to
the drought the P, c., c. & st. l.. road
is doing the largest freight business in its
history.

After an idleness of four years the
Sunbury Iron Works at Sunbury, Pa.
have resumed operation.
The Pullman Palace Car Co. owns and
controls 1855 cars. The operating ex-
penses of their entire plant was for the
year 1894, $3,5II ,92e.
The Great Northern railway of En-
| gland had an accident, some time ago,
caused by the breaking of a driving axle
which broke off inside the hub of the
wheel. The axle was 25H years old and
had made $1,000 miles.
Last week, a meeting was held in St.
Louis by the managers of all the railroads
in the central and middle states to re-
strict the issuing of passes for 1896. The
passes to employees are restricted to men
employed on actual and necessary bust
ness.
After pumping a handcar up a heavy
grade over rails covered with sand a sec
ton foreman fells like getting a club
and numbering the thick-skulled engineer
who leaves such evidence of his ignor-
ance behind. Many engineers imagine
that the more sand they use the less the
drivers will slip. The result is that the
rails are covered with sand, the engine
rumbles over it, every Car drags heavily,
and if the train gets over the hill it is
by main strength and awkwardness.
Then when the track men come along
they must get off and push or tire them
selves out pumping the car up. It seems
that not more than n engineer in ten
understands that a few grains of sand
distributed along the rail a distance
equal to the diameter Of the drivers and
at intervals of 500 to COO feet is sufficient
TO prevent slipping.-Jerry Sullivan, IN
the Road Master.

Two Twenty Five--After the Wreck
BY MRS. LILLIAN VAN BURGH.

BY MRS. LILLIAN A BURGH.
Two Twenty-Five came back again,
All fitted once more for work, "
Bounding and pulling DER valley and plain,
And never a duty she'll shirk.
There's a strangers land on the throttle now
A new fireman at his side;
Calmly along with thoughtful brow,
Der the same old track they ride.
Two twenty-five came back again;
All shining and new you come back;
Did not your iron sides throb with pain,
AS you stood on that glittering track,
Where IN the m1re, a few short weeks before,
Sobbing ike some human soul you lay;
While meath your iron weight those four,
Lay breathing their lives away?
Two Twenty-Five came back again;
Oh, the weary hearts that will ache,
AS they look upon you with eyes of pain,
Then, see the empty homes you make.
You come from the shops all clean and new,
To take up your duties once more;
The OTHERS are standing purified too,
On the other side of the shore.
Two Twenty-Five came back again,
To her duty so tried and true;
We know tho we look with eyes all stained,
She only did as her Master babe her do;
And there on the other side, we know,
Are the loved ones We laid to rest;
For our Master repays what is lone below,
"Ah, truly, We murmur, God knows best.
