LOOKS LIKE SUCCESS.

III N0W 1OIh CtLy, III Ihlio1uOApAiAoA and in Washington there is strong Halk of using compressed air for the motive force of street cars. Capital ists of ample means have organized syndicate in New York and the adop- tion of the system is said to be only q question of a little time in New York and Washington. Under the com pressed air system the compressed air is put in storage reservoirs under the car with various capacities up to twenty miles an hour, the air being compressed to about 2,000 pounds to the square inch. For long distance running, station reservoirs are to be placed along the route, and when the reservoirs are empty they are filled in few minutes through flexible tube.
 A good deal has been said about a revolution in street car propulsion by compressed air, but nothing tangible has been presented in this country un- til recently. Now the investigation of facts accomplished seems to have re- suited in such satisfactory manner that the machinery for the New York company is under construction and millions have been subscribed on the conviction Of the practical success of the force for street railway purposes. It is, indeed, likely to prove a strong rival for electricity and steam, and the cable, now moribund, is likely to become a thing of the past.
 In the matter of comparative cost, however, compressed air is not believed to be cheaper than the trolley system for street railroads; but instead of be- ing dependent upon a distant power house, the compressed air contains within itself the motive force and the steel reservoir only has to be replen- ished at intervals and all peril from live wires is removed. Tn New York city overhead wires for traction pur- poses are under the ban, and that is the reason why attention has been turned to compressed air, as no conduit electric traction system has yet been proven practical success, although some have been put in use.
 The Chicago street railways are to be supplied with compressed air, so there is pretty good evidence that all doubts are dispelled about the system When MT Keely of Philadelphia gets his machine in working order, all ex- isting motive forces will probably have to retire. Even if the public have about given up all hope of seeing the Keely motor in operation, few faithful persons continue to supply the plucky man with cash.
 Keely is the most hopeful inventor living, but there is some doubt if he will catch up with electricity and con- pressed air and pass them before he dies. Life is hardly long enough for Keely's ambition. Still, in this age of wonders he may some day wake up and find himself famous. In the meantime let us hope much from com- pressed air.

PRESS NOTES.

The North American Review for June opens with most suggestive and practical paper by MT. Andrew Car negie entitled '"The Ship of State Adrift," in which he points out the deterioration since 1890 of the United States in National wealth and conner cial prosperity, and in plain, logical and convincing statements, shows why such state of things exists.

polls. This is the first syllable of gos- pei truth that has ever appeared in the literature of the Wall street bureau. The only impeachment to the pro- gramme is the determination of "the plain people of this country" to settle the question by defeating the goldbugs at the polls. It is the gold craze that's dying out"

It is curious to note that week or so ago when the gold men in the Dem ocratic party thought they would have majority in the Chicago convention they were denouncing the silver men of the party in the most violent terms for threatening to bolt, and now that free silver has won, the gold men say they will bolt.

On a gold platform the Republicans would have to fight Democrats, Pop ulists and the silver union party, of which Bland is the head. As very large proportion of the Republican party is for free silver, even Mckinley would not be safe against such com hination

ECHOES FROM WEST END.

Mr.. Morehouse is again adding
new improvements to his very at.
tractive home.

West End Is being surrounded by
q number of neat new residences.
Mr.. Herman Brendel has done as
much or more than any one else to
improve the good looks of our cool

been as we'll profitable as ornamen-

that the pavilion had been enga.

A gentle conflict Of amusements
occurred on the West End pavilion
last Friday night; party Of ladies
and gentlemen from San Antonio
town, accompanied by band Of
music and desire to dance, came
to the pavilion and found it in
possession of a church entertain

CORN FROM TEXAS.

Private information reached here
last Saturday that the Santa Fe road
was hauling 400 cars of corn to Gal
weston for shipment to Mexican
gulf port or ports.
1t is presumable that Tampico
will be the destination of much of
this corn. Some viii 20 to Tuxpan.
where scarcity IS reported and the
price has risen. Not little may be
sent 10 San Luis Potosi, where it has
b Gu observed that the price has
gone up considerably. There is a
rciatiTe scarcity at Guadlaaiara also.
and esen between here and Tainpico
the supply is not equal TO the de-
nfa'id at ordinary prices. The cause
of this was the local drouth which
cut short the last pin Tan. aulipas
and in few other localities.
Mexican farmers have not vet cot
into the habit of producing for a de-
n'and beyond the local requirements
of tneir respective districts, and
transportation, too, is far less COM
.pIeie than will be necessary 10 en-
able all parts of this republic to
economically supply the lack in any
particular district on pinch. Hence
is seen tie importation of corn in
such circumstances.
This goes to show that Mexico
needs more railroads and more ex.
tensive corn culture. The latter
would not be a business success in
many fertile portions of the country
without the former to get it tc
market.-Monterey Times.

of what is termed the straightlaccd

tits well known that Mrs. CIeve-

she has set the mark Of disapproval
upon the girl who smokes cigarretts.
IT seems that young lady who in
dllges in the habit, whose name is
withheld although she is well
known, was lately frowned upon
very pointedly for the ofrense. Mrs.
Cleveland, in fact, will not know

New York society is up in arms
