The Incompatible Chicago & Alton.

In these United States of America at
least and it is highly probable that
throughout the entire world, the
official record for the safety and well
fare of It's passengers made and main
tanned by the Chicago q Alton Railroad
cannot be surpassed if indeed it can be
eQualed.
Over its completely rock ballasted,
dustless roadway between Chicago and
Kansas City, Chicago and St. Louis
Chicago and Peoria and St. Louis and
Kansas City, eighteen magnifcently
appointed express trains are run on
uniformly fast time every day. But in
spite of this heavy passenger tratfice
the official records show that from
December t, 1879, to December t, 1880,
eleven years, there was no passenger
who was in place as passenger, killed
on Chicago 4 Alton trains. Moreover
there was not passenger seriously
injured, to the extent Of losing limb,
an eye or a member of any kind during
that time.
During the entire period of the
Worlds Columbian Exposition in
Chicago, when it was not an uncommon
thing to find the usual passenger traffic
of the road increased two, three and
four-toId, and special excursion trains
aud extra sections of regular trains
were very MANY, there was not an
accident Of any kinda most remark
able record.
Besides being America s most popular
railroad, the Chicago & Alton is the
Pioueer Dining Car Line. the Pioneer
Pullman Sleeping Car Line and the
Pioneer Palace Reclining Chair Car
Line, and the best line from Chicago to
Peoria Illinois, Denver, Colorado and
Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Be sure that YOUR ticket reads over
the Chicago & Alton Railroad, when its
matchIess and direct lines can form
the whole, or even a part of your
journey.

Fifty miles of barefoot training over

IN ZANZIBAR.
British Forces to Be Reinforced in
Authorization of More Trouble

British Forces to Be Reinforced In
Anticipation of More Trouble.
London, August 2S.-A dispatch to
the Times from Zanzibar says that 200
Indian troops are expected tomorrow
from Mocha, and the British forces on
the island of Zanzibar will be strong
ly reinforced without loss of time.
London, August 2S.-The Times in
its editorial this morning apparently
regards the news from Zanzibar as
indicating that England is resolved
to preserve the status quo and that
Lord Salisbury evidently considers
that financial and political reasons
stand in the way OF the annexation of
Zanzibar.
The Times is Of the opinion that
Lord Salisbury is not certain that
France and Germany will readily con-
sent to abandon their rights and con-
sular jurisdiction on the island Of
Zanzibar
The crisis here is regarded as ended.
The new sultan, Hamoud Bin Moham-
med Bin Said, is expected to follow
the peaceful lines of his predecessor,
and it is understood Great Britain
does not intend to make any change
in the existing form Of government.
The suggestion is made that the
presence Of the suppressed usurper,
Said Khalid, at the German consul
ate, implies political intrigue is not
credited here and it is expected Kha-
lid will be handed over to the British
officials as soon as the German con-
sui receives the necessary instructions
from Berlin.

Sparrows and the Bicycle.

A curious thing about the sparrow
has often been noticed by wheelmen.
When bicycle riding first became COM
mon the birds used to hop up in the
air and fly away before the wheel was
within 20 feet of them, plainly being
very much frightened. But now, even
with the increase in the number of BIZ
cycles and the speed at which they are
ridden, the birds show little or no fear.
They wait until the very last moment
before getting out of the way, and then
they hop aside only few inches.
