Robert Garrett,. Mistake.

An incident in the career of the late Rob-
ert Garrett illustrates the folly of mixing
business with the pleasures of the festive
board and teaches a lesson on the neces-
sity of keeping ones own counsel in
mixed company. When Mr.. Garrett gained
control of the affairs of the Baltimore &
Ohio, after the death of his father he at
once began to scheme for. the creation Of
grand through line from New England and
New York to the West. AS the first step
he looked to obtain possession of the Phil
adelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore. at that
time the only line between Baltimore &
Philadelphia. His negotiations with the
owners of the road had proceeded to that
point where he supposed he had a full OPP
ton on its purchase Being in New York
he one evening joined cOnviviaf party at
dinner, and under the stimulus of the
swlftly-circulating bottle he confided to the
Guiding the fact of his option TO purchase
the p, w. & B. Among the guests at the
table was a close friend OF Tom" Scott,
then president of the Pennsylvania, who
lost no time in communicating TO that gen.
tleman all he had heard. The Pennsyl-
vania magnate was not person to permit
a rival TO gain any advantage through de-
lay on his part, and when, short time
thereafter, Mr.. Garrett went to Boston to
close the deal for the p, w. & b., he
found to his dismay that Mr.. Scott had
for cash TO the Pennsylvania. This turn of
affairs completely disconnected Mr.. Gar
rett and changed the situation I'm railroad
affairs in the East. 1t blocked the con-
templated alliance between the Baltimore
a. Ohio. the Reading the New Jersey Cen
trail and the New England roads, making
the Pennsylvania the master of the stua-
tion, and eventually led 10 the collapse of
the Reading and the failure of the Balti-
more K Ohio. Ii was the beginning of the
end of the career of the younger Garrett
as railroad king and. together with the
struggle with Jay Gould to prevent the
absorption by the Western Union of the Il.
& o. telegraph lines no doubt was the
prime cause of the mental breakdown of

After the o'clock meeting yesterday
morning Rev. D. A Robertson preached
the morning sermon, taking for his subject.
Riches"
After speaking of the limited satisfaction
gained from the possession of earthly goods
the speaker said there was no philosophy
which could satisfy the hunger Of the soul.
but that Christ was appointed as mans
spiritual food, which came through the
channel of the gospel.
AT 2:90 o'clock Rev. E. s. Dolph preached
from the sixteenth verse of the sixth chap
ter of Jermiah
The speaker gave several interesting ex-
amples of the simple habits and strict OBJ
servances of the early Methodist Church.
of their plain dress and shouting meetings.
He said ii was true that the Methodist
Church OF to-day had forsaken many OF
the ideas and practices of the early church,
but Wesley had founded the church not
to perpetuate certain habits, but to en-
courage lives of holiness and that idea
should never be lost sight of by the church
AT o'clock the cottage prayer meetings
were again held also the childrens meet
ing. which is always well attended by the
little folks.
At o'clock the evening Epworth meet
ing was held in the pavilion. after which

Who Believe in Him.
The speaker divided the spiritual rela-
tionS of man into the Observation-Disclosures

glorification of man,
The evening services are much better at

Poor Indeed

There are degrees and kinds Of
poverty, just as there are diff

who compute and measure poverty
and riches by different standards.
Some men deem themselves poor
because they are less. rich than
others, again there are compara-
lively poor people who are satisfied
with a competence There is a
kind of poverty for which no amount
of wealth can compensate, namely,

Editor TEXARKANIAN:

ava NN@N
. Editor TEXARKANIAN:
The street paving question is an
economic question; IN some res
poets it is a sanitary question, also
a question of comfort and com
merce; but in its most important
aspect, it invites consideration of
the waste of effort and the saving
of expenditure.
The streets of our city are power
wasters 1t the sole purpose for
which paved streets are construct
ed was that locomotion be reduced
this would mean a reduction of the
amount of effort required to move
a load. All efforts cost money, so
then the smallest effort costs the
least money, and therefore the
smoothest pavements save the most
money to every person who travels
over them with a vehicle. The
amount of power required to move
a load on a certain kind of pave
ment, can be ascertained with as
much eXactness as any other fact.
1t is asserted by those who have
( tried the experiment, that the load
which can be moved on a smooth
pavement by two horses will require
about fifteen horses on mud road.
If this be true, then somewhere
about six out of every seven horses
used in this city for hauling is a
clear waste. Few persons, perhaps,
realize the amount of this loss
The street traffic of this city is
large; probably the amount of ma
terial moved doubles the amount of
freight loaded and unloaded from
our railroads, for nearly every arti-
Gle is hauled twice. The estimate
of $40, 900 for hauling said material
does not seem unreasonable. If
this be correct aud the proportion
of waste given be not exaggerated,
then we have as part OF the annual
cost to the business men of our city
for the bad streets which we per-
NIT to exist, a sum approXimating
$50, 900. In this view of the matter
it will be seen that the improve
ment of our streets is matter OF
large concern to the people.
We throw away more money ev-
cry year than would pave all our
business streets.
One obstacle in the way of paving
is the placing of so large proper
tion of the cost on the property
fronting on the street. This looks
like Justice, but the public highway
is for all the people. The system
which puts the burden on the indi.
vidual tends to block any movement
toward better things. The man
who gains the largest benefit from
good pavements is the man who
owns the vehicle and horse. If good
pavements will save him money, as
it certainly will, there would appear
to be some proprlety in requiring
him to help pay for them. A small
tax on horses and vehicles "a wheel
and hoof tax would produce a very
large sum of money annually, and
if this sum was devoted wholly to
improving our streets, there would
probably be little or no objection to
the tax. This seems to me to be a
practicable and just way of obtain
ing better streets,
