All tracks will be taken up and ties drop ped and stringers put on them. This will require some little time, as it will be found necessary to do the work in such a manner that trains can continue to pass through the street.
 The city force of workmen will be un- der the supervision of City Engineer Ross, but it is highly probable that Street Commissioner Worthington will have direct charge of the workmep. This end of the work will not be begun until Wednesday or Thursday, as it is thought best to let the railroad force get about a block ahead of the city workmen so as not to create confusion.
 Chairman Mclean said last night: This work is the result of many days of work on the part of the committee At last we have got the railroad com panies. the property holders and the city together in a united effort to make one good street, and this chert paving proves a success hope to other streets paved with the same material. This work de- mands so much time and labor that It would be hard matter for me to estl- mate when it will be completed.

WHY MIR. MOODY RESIGNED
lmpeIled to the Step by Better Inducements
 Twenty-T hree Years in Service.

Mai. w. A. Moody has tendered his resigna tion to the Southern railway and it has been accepted with regret. His successor has not yet been appointed. Major Moody was impelled to this step by the offer of the position of purchas- ing agent for the Howard-Harrison Pipe works. His position is not only more lu- crative, but affords a wider field and greater opportunities. After twenty three years spent in the railroad service Major Moody makes this change with
 much regret at leaving his first love. For several years he has been connected with the freight department of the South ern railroad in this city, and his duties have thrown him in constant connection with our leading business men. They have become very much attached to him, and admire his energy, his urbanity, and his Knowledge of railroad affairs Ma jor Moody is an active and prominent member of the First Methodist church, and is one of the devoted band that erected the magnificent structure on Sixth avenue, which is the pride of the city and the admiration of strangers. his change of aVocation by Major Moody marks the advancement of this section. There was time when the rail- roads were the only large corporations in the mineral district, and they monopo- lized the best talent. Now there are cor porations able to outbid the railroads in engaging the services of the best men.

The Fall of Tammany Hall.

Tammany Hall, the Gibraltar of
the democrat party of New York,
is so shattered and demoralized that
its total collapse is looked for.
Croker and all its great leaders are
deserving it. The cause of this
sudden downfall is apparent. AS
long as the democrat party could
be handled to serve the money
power it was sustained by that
power. The transfer Of power to
the party developed its utter in
competency and showed to the peo-
pie that the party and its leaders
were wholly without a national
policy, and that the party was "a
mere Office hunting political organ
ization. Cleveland attempted to
build a party after his own crude
ideas of craftsmanship by the power
of patronage. The party in control
in both Houses, by their actions,
showed too p'ainly to the people
what a band ofpolitical adventures
the leaders were. Then came the
popular blow which laid it out
a helpless, hopeless wreck. The
money power which had upheld
Tammany and the party as a
countcrpoise, to divide and fritter
away the power of the people, saw
that the party of the North in the
large gambling centres could no
longer be depended upon, and the
rich, influential members who con-
trolled the party machinery are
going over bag and baggage to the
republican party. That party is
the real corporation, trust and
money power party. This element
is combining to make stand
against the Populist party. The
rank and file of the democrat party,
like sheep without sheppard, are
scattering and know not what to do.
They will gather to the Peoples
party, and against that party the
money power means to hurl the
republican party with all the con-
centrated power of wealth and class
Legislation they can command. If
it seems polite to nominate a Pres
idential ticket for the democrat
party in '96 they will do so ; if not
allthepOwer they can command will
be conferred in the republican party.

I and You.

Miss Frances Power Cobbe tells sto-
ry in her autobiography which we'll il
Illustrates that even to intelligent and
forceful persons l is big and you very
small: cat one of the pleasant gather,
ings at Mrs Peter Taylor's, which will
not be forgotten by those who had the
good fortune to be invited on her open
evenings at Aulney house, Miss Mary
Carpenter remarked. 1T is q thousand
pities that everybody will not join and
give the whole of their minds to the
great cause of the age, because if they
would we shonld carry it undoubtedly.
What is the great cause of the ago?' we
simultaneously exclaimed. 'Parliamen-
tary reform?' said our host, Mr.. Peter
Taylor; The abolition of slavery said
Miss Redmond, negress. Mrs. Tay-
lor's companion; 'TeetotalismY said
another; 'Woman's sufrage?' said an
other; The conversion of the world to
Theism?' said |. In the midst of the
clamor Miss Carpenter looked serenely
round. Why, the industrial school bill,
of course. No one enjoyed the joke,
when we all began to laugh, more than
the reformer herself.
