a TRIBUTE TO. ROBERT O. WIN

trustees of the Peabody educational
fund committee was appointed to
draw up Il tribute to tho memory of
tho Hon. Robert c.. Winthrop. That
committee consisted Of Chief Justice
Melville w. Fuller, the Hon. William

from Boston TO tn Now York Critic

ute, and quote ono strong paragraph.

him to each member Of tho trust rs q
warm personal friend, aud the light
which his experience and knowledge

for d"lihrrnti"p always made the task
OF his associates IN easy one. We felt
that hatcvcr Mr. Winthrop approved
af'er the study and reflection which he
insisted upon giving to every measure

TIE COST OF BAD ROADS.-The
Office Of road inquiry OF tho Depart
ment OF Agriculture has completed an
interesting investigation relating to
the use of the common roads Of the
United States. Returns have been
received from about 1000 counties,
showing tho average length Of haul
from farms to markets Or shipping
points to be II miles; the average
weight OF load for two horses, 2,OO2
pounds and the average cost per ton
per mile % cents, or 81 for the entire
haul. Estimating the farm products
at 2l0, ,S24 ,227 tons in weight and max.
ing estimates on other articles carried
over the public roads, it is calculated
that the aggregate expense of this
transportation in the United States is
$9l6,4l4 ,665 per annum. Reports have
been asked from the United States
cOnsuls abroad of the expense OF haul
ing where the roads are good, 80 as to
render possible a calculation which
will show how much of this large out
lay Is due to bad roads The estimate
is vcntured, however. upon informa-
tion in the Office Of road inquiry, count
ing tho loss of time in reaching
markets, the enforced idlcnesa and the
wear and tear to live stock and hauling
machinery caused by poor roads, that
two-th 'rds of the cost might be saved
by an Improvement Of the roads.

Burnt Factory. 1t was in operation
before 1876. At that time Weaver,

and his executor carried on the suit
and gained it. When the factory was

spinning cotton on Tiger. He quit

a DISMAL FAILURE. Ono of the
most amusing stories of tho day treats
OF mistaken philanthropy. At cer-
tain army post there was u sentry on
duty near the hospital. The surgeon
was preparing to go to bed inside,
when he was annoyed and alarmed at
the scnLry's coughing. His expo
ricnccd ear told him that tho man had
severe bronchial uf1licti0n. needing
strong remedy. ..
He debated awhile with himself, and
then going into the dispensing room,
compounded Il powerful mixture. This
he took outside to the sentry with in
structiOns to swallow it immediately.
The man refused. The surgeon in
sisted and finally commanded the man
to take the medicine; which he did,
with much grumbling. Then the
worthy surgeon went to bod, pleased
to hear no moro coughing.
Next morning to his surprise tho
commadding officer sent for him and
said that tho sentry had complained,
declaring that the surgeon had forced
him to swallow something he thought
was poison. An investigation follow
cd and revealed the fact that while
the surgeon was mixing tho medicine,
the coughing sentry had been relieved
and consequently the remedy had
oecn glvon to the wrong man.

THE RUSSIAN LOAN--The story OF
Russias prOlfered loan Of SIC, 100000
in gold to tho United States has been
confirmed with the exception that tho
details of the offer are somewhat
changed. 1t is still the sensation Of
financial and diplomatic circles and
has not only improved the tone Of
American markets, but possibly pre-
vented any further raid on the gold
reserve. 1t is not expected, however,
that the United States will accept the
offer, which was made eighteen
months ago, and declined at that time,
although the gold, it Is understood, 10
still ut the disposal Of this country. 1t
is considered more than likely the
gold will be obtained from RN5aian
bankcrs instead OF from any English
sources. This Is the raost natural con.
clusion for the. reason that, pending
the Vcneauefan trouble, President
Cleveland would not care to cnter into
now arrangement with British capi-
tai lists for Il new supply of gold. The
| attitude OF Russia toward the United
| States has always been of O most
friendly character. AS tho offer was
long before The Venezuelan trouble,
| that could not be said to have any
bearing upon the loan.

following Stay: "As passed through

Mr.. Hamilton's. This leads mo to
speak of this second Robert Collyer, u
blacksmith and preacher. Ono day
a minister Of the Methodist Episcopal
denomination came to have his horse
shod by Mr.. Hamilton. Knowing his
Baptist proclivities, he thought to
joke him. Said he, SIS this u Buptist
shop?" ct is, SIR" said Mr.. Hamil-
ton. We'll, | want Methodist shoes
put on my horse" All right, sir"
The sturdy blacksmith, with a smile,
went to work, turned, calkcd and fitted
tho shoes, then laid them down and
waited saying, "Win take some time
to cool, sir; you will have to wait q
little" "Why don't you dip them into
the tub?" said the Methodist man.
"Oh, that would make them Baptist
shoes. sir !" said Mr.. Hamilton. The
joke had gone far enough by this time,
and the Methodist brother replied,
"Oh, well, dip them anyway Pm in q
hurry" SO the Methodist horse wore
Baptist shoes one time, and was nc
worse for it.
