a special with General Grant aboard made
the run from Indianapolis to Terre Haute,
seventy-three miles, in ninety-o1e minutes.
There has been no better run made since,

Kansas City Star.

Kansas City Star.
There appeared in the Star of Jan. s an
article reprinted from the Chicago Tribune
entitled Again the Million Stamp Craze
telling of the efforts of a young crippled
vile, ILL.,, to raise sufficient money to pay
her fees in a medical institute. This came
member of several philanthropic societies,
who sat down and figured out the posi-
bilities of the scheme detailed in the Trib-
une's article, and discovered that the sum
of $4,000 would be involved in stamps, for
which the cripple would eventually receive
a person at Gardner. Kan, signing him

Edna r. Brown lives at Kanevilie. ILL.,,
but she is not a cripple; She has a sister
in,law who is a cripple. They have re-
stamps and considerable money during the
last three months. Edna Brown has re-
ceived thousands of letters every day. Last
Monday she received $4,000 and Tuesday H.
900; most of them containing money orders,
postoffice orders, etc. They have already
received more stamps than they know what
to do with. but 1 cannot say how much
money; the amount must certainly be very
large. 1t would simply be nonsens.cal for
any one to send her any more stamps or
money!
1t was also ascertained that Kaneville is
a mere hamlet, with four or five houses. a
general store and a windmill, and the
medical institute in which Edna pro-
poses to have her physical deformities cor
rected existed wholly in her mind.
Computing modestly, Edna has received
nearly $1,000 worth of Cancelled stamps at
the current price for such. and if she re-
ceived money orders of the average value
of 20 cents each, she has received consid-
erably over 81, 900 a day for at least two
days from that source.
1t is to be presumed that very many per-
sons, charitably inclined, have gone into
the scheme of enriching Edna r. Brown
and her aecomplices, and they will probably
learn the facts in the case with pleasure
and profit.

1t can be said in the Presidents favor
that he can heartily enjoy a good joke,

several witticisms about the failure of the
currency bill. the stealing of the stove from
the White House sentry-box and dbont
other events of recent occurrence at the
capital. The President laughed and ao.
plauded with a right good will. He has ret
been resting on a bed of roses for some
time, but when a man can laugh at jokes
perpetrated at his own expense 1t is safe 10

The real question TO be settled between
the trolleys and their workmen is LARGELY
one of definition. Is a motorman a skilled
mechanic or not? If he is he is entitled TO
a skilled mechanics wages. Jack Tar itas
disappeared from the navy: the man who
handles a modern gun in a modern steam
ship must be an intelligent mechanic; SO
should be the motorman OF a trolley car. If
he is such, pay him; if he is not, discharge.
him and put a skilled mechanic in his place.
