TeIegraphing Through Space.

The possibility OF telegraphing through
space has been turned to account in a most
effective way for maintaining communlca-
tion between the mainland and Fastnet light
house on the southwest coast OF ireland.
Formerly the difficulties OF carrying tele-
graph cable up an exposed rock, where IL
was subject to constant chahng, were al
most insuperable. The non-contnuous sys-
tenn is now used, and is said to work ad-
mirably The cable terminates in the water
sixty yards on. and the electric currents
sent from the shore find their way through
this distance to two bare wires that dip into
the sea from the rock.

COMMERCE ON THE GULF.
Southern Age.

Southern Age.
Slowly but surely the trend of
western commerce is being changed
from New York to the Gulf of Mex
ico, and by the time permanent
deep water harbor is secured on the
Texas coast the entire wes:e half
of the Mississippi valley will be
ready to export Its products through
the gulf instead of paying excessive
railroad rates TO New York. Ninety
five per cent Of the total exports of
this country come directly or indi-
rectly from the farms, and of this
percentage at least two thirds is from
the west. The problem of excessive
railroad rates has puzzled western
people for years, and how to get
their products TO tide water by a
shorter land haul is the question that
has engaged the most solicitous at
tention on the part of the trans-Miss-
issippi congress and state legislatures
The distance by rail to the gulf from
the center of the producing region
is only one-half the distance to the
Atlantic coast, and ton of freight
on tide water can be carried ten
times as far for the same cost as it
can be carried on land. Therein lies
the agitation for enlarged shipping
facilities on the gulf coast. Several
Texas and Louisiana harbors are al
ready being used for exporting raw
cotton and lumber, and it will be a
great day for the south and west
when these ports are open TO the
largest ocean vessels for receiving
the products of the entire Mississip-
pi valley.

FIRST LOCOMOTIy r
WHISTLE.

When locomotives were first
built and began to trundle
their small leads up and down
the newly and rndely construct
ed railways ef England, the
public roads were, for the
greatest part, crossed at grade,
and the engine driver had no
way Of giving warnings of his
approach except by blowing a
Tin horn. But this, as may be
imagined, was far from being Il
sufficient warning. One day. in
the year 1888, SO runs a story

regarded as a very serious mat

of the company went to Alton

BIG EAGLE, TIE CHICKEN
THIEF.

Milburn Bruce of this place, says
a Rockaway Beach special, has been
missing chickens for some time
His flock commenced to decrease in
numbers so rapidly that he spent
several nights on watch for the thief
prepared to give him the contents
of both barrels Of double barreled
shotgun.
Shortly after daylight this morn
ing he heard his hens cackling and
alarm, and hurriedly dressing, he
seized his gun and rushed into the
yard. As he emerged from the back
door of the house he was startled TO
see an immense eagle spread its
wings in the chicken yard and pre-
pare to fly. AS the big bird rose
from the ground Bruce saw one OF
his hens caught in one of the eagles
talons.
Quickly raising his gun he fired
both barrels and brought down the
;hief. The eagle measured seven
feet six inches from tip to tip OF its
wings. 1t was placed on exhibition
in local hotel, and nearly every
resident OF the beach visited the
place to get a look at the stranger
