RAILROADS IN EUROPE.

In view of the fact that government
ownership OF railroads will be topic more
or less generally discussed in this coun-
try for a good many years. recent con-
suIar report issued by the state depart
ment at Washington City will prove OF
unusual interest. 1t contains series OF
articles on Railways in Europe" which
show the relations existing there between
the railroads and the state. and the con-
dition of affairs which has resulted from
public ownership Of transportation lines.
In Germany state ownership OF rail-
roads Is more highly developed than in
any OF the other European countries.
They are nearly all owned and operated
by the various kingdoms. with the excep-
ton OF Alsace-Lorraine, where the own
ershlp has vested in the imperial gov
eminent When Bismarck had settled
some Of his pressing foreign questions and
set about to centralize power in the en-
pire with the idea OF making it strong and
respected. one of his favorite schemes
was 70 bring ell the railroads Of Germany
under imperial ownership and manage
mcnt. He was able 10 make success of
his plan only IN Prussia. which, by the
way, contains more than half Of the roads
I'm the empire There was great opposl-
ton 10 the great imperial project, espe-
clally from the larger states OF South Ger
many. People objected 20 the empire
loading itself up with a debt which the
purchase of the state and private lines
would necessitate and besides there was
a very pronounced unwiningness 10 sell.
Bavaria WAS especially strenuous 81 OPP
position To the imperial railroad idea. in
sisting that she would never transfer over
70 the central government Il source OF
revenue so essential 70 her own financial
integrity and Independence.
Prussia has succeeded IN converting
nearly an her railroads into state lines.

The sister Of the new battleship Kear-
sarge has been named by Secretary Her
bert the Kentucky. This is an acceptable
name and. on the whole. will be more sat
isfactory than Alabama, which some peo-
pie wanted. Alabama would have been a
good name. perhaps. but no little unkind
talk would probably have followed the Sc
lection OF the old Confederate cruisers
name for the sister ship OF the kearsarge.
Inasmuch as Secretary Herbert is from
Alabama, the choice OF Kentucky Is all

ROME OF THE PRESENT DAY.

In Rome, at the Decline, we find pre-
cisely as at the present day, an I'M
ravelling of all moral bonds, f~erocity
In manners, unsparing egotism. sensual
ism and brutality; we find multitudes
whose loath.ng of life impels them to
suicide. The realistic literature OF a
Petronius is the counterpart of the novels
of q Zola, only that there is more humor
and wholesoms satire in one chapter
of the Cena Trimalchionis than IN all
the two dozen volumes of the Rougon-
Macquart combined. The luuxuriaf.ng
of the neo-Platonism reminds one OF
rhe Eeo-mystec movement of our own
times. In so far, the similarity is
striking. The divergence begins when
we consider not the immoral. but rather
the delir.um-reeking literature and art
of the present day, and do not overlook
the concomitant phenomena of the social
life. No record has been preserved to
show us that the decay OF n in
Rome increased the rate of drunkncss
insanity and impuls:ve c~rimes-for we
from those crimes which yield a palp-
able advantage to their perpetrators.
To-day this Increased ratio Is observ-
able IN all centres of civilization, at
least in Europe. Furthermore, we find
in Rome at the decline a retrogress.on
slovenly, heavy and awkward, but still.
antiquity does not furnish US with such
poets as Mallarme, Sar Peladan. Mae
terlink, sue philosophers as rSietzsche,
such artists as Harry Martin, Monet,
Pissaro. Van Gogh. or Trachsel. In
ence between our age and proceeding
aanehs which seem to bear. a resen1-
biance to it.-Dr. Max Nerdau, in North
American Review for July.

ATHLETIC ARENA.
Junior Guild Games Postponed Until

The games of the Junior Guild of st.
Johns Free Church have been postponed
until tomorrow evening at 6 o'clock.
Arrangements for the Fourth of July
carnival of the N. J. A. C. are all per-
fected, and it will certainly be the lead
ing attraction in this section of the
country, from an athletic standpoint. The
sport will begin promptly at II o'clock
with a game of football between the
Kearny Rangers of Kearny and the
Jefferson Football Club of Newark. At
L P. NJ, the all around championship
will be called. The entrles this year
are superior to any heretofore received.
Boston and Albany are represented,
and the knowing ones seem to think
that the competition will be between
Cosgrove of Albany. Long of Boston,, and
Sweeney and Sheldon of New York.
The pen handicap athletic games re-
ceived a large entry. as we'll as the
bicycle races. The trick and fancy
bicycle riding part of the programme
will have such attractions as Prof.
Ike Johnson, who will give an exhibition,
and Master Leroy See, who will also
do fancy riding on a safety. The days
sport will wind up with a game Of base
ball between the N ]. A. c.. nine and
the Puritan A. C. Club of Greenville.
Great rivalry exists between these two
teams, and a good game is expected.
