As she recalled the past, and tried to
penetrate the future, a smile of supreme
satisfaction passed over her honest face
as she remembered that her life's work
would be perpetuated.
The room in which she sat contained
hundreds of volumes of records; and,
turning to her daughter, she said, -
"My daughter, this room, as you well
know, contains the records of my LIES
work, in which for many years you have
so diligently assisted me.
"By earnest application you have COM
passed my methods; and it is happi-
ness to think that when / leave, the
glorious work will, through you, 60 on.
"The mission is noble one. DO as l
have done: never permit a woman's ap-
peal to go unhceded.
"These reeds tell of every case ever
submitted to me; and it is my wish that
the facts they contain shall in time prove
a much-needed education to the women
of the world"

Anent Electric Railroads.

The electrical equipment on the Nantas-
ket Beach branch of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad has been a
great Cuccess. Trains have been run more
frequently and more cheaply and the Off
cials find that this creates traffic, the in
crease over the number of passengers car
ried last season being 300 per cent. The
experiments with electric motive power in
freight traffic has also been highly satisfac-
tory. The New Haven company is further
to prove its faith in electricity by extend
ing the Nantasket lines special equipment
over on to one of the main lines of the Old
Colony system from Nantasket junction to
Braintree. This section of road will be
provided with four tracks, the two inner
ones of which will be fenced in and used
by the steam trains, while the two outer
ones will be used by the electric cars. The
company expects to have this line in work
ing order by the first of next season. Fur
thermore, it has been practically decided,
says Mr.. Kendrick, to use electricity in
conjunction with steam as far out as Read
willie and Dedham on the Providence divis
ion in the same manner as between Brain
tree and Nantasket Junction.
These results of the Nantasket expert
ment are bound to give great impetus tC
electrical tests by other railroad companies
| America is far and away ahead of EurOp,
in the application of the current to trans
portation uses. A French electrical journa
says there are only 434 miles of electric
roads in Europe, over one-half being il
Germany.
The latest statistics for the United State
show three times as much electric road il
operation in New England as in all Europe
and 10,S63 miles for the country at large.

The Cholera scourge in Japan.

The cholera epidemic in Japan has
reached the proportions of a scourge, no
less then 5000 deaths having occurred with
in month; and all efforts to check the
disease, or to confine it within narrow linn
its, have thus far proved fruitless. 1t has
been carried eastward to the Hawaiian ISL
ands, and cases are reported aboard the
United States war ship Bennington sta
toned there. This means danger to ouI
Pacific coast; and the authorities there will
probably join with the federal officials in
taking the most rigid precautions. The
way to deal with cholera in the United
States is to prevent its coming here.
