Atchison Globe.
An Atchison woman is writing love
story in which the cathode ray plays a
prominent part. The heroine turns the
cathode ray on young mans pocket
book, and finds it full. and his heart
empty. She at once makes advances,
and the young man follows her lead. He
takes trick after trick by his skillfu
plays in the game, and is about to ask
for her hand, when friend suggests
that the girl has another lover on the
string. He turns the cathode ray on her
heart, and finds that he occupies very
small space in it. Discouraged, he COM
mits suicide, and the girl who has
learned to love him for himself too late
spends the rest of her life in taking soli-
tary rambles TO the cemetery, where she
daily turns the cathode ray on his grave,
in order to gaze again and again upon
his features, and see how he is getting
on. 1t is expected that the story will
make great bit.

Irregularities in Land Divisions Due to
the Manner of 1Ieasurement.
1t is commonly accepted theory
that man steps three feet, and many
a tract of land has been stepped off,
instead of measured with a chain. In
the west they obviate the difficulties
of surveys by the land being divided
into sections, but in Pennsylvania
much of the property, especially in the
mountains, must still be described by
metes and bounds In one of the couI-
ties in western Pennsylvania, says the
Washington Star, are two brothers,
one of whom is tall and Iank, the other
short and fat. Many years ago they
purchased tract of mountain land
calling for mile square. They divided
the labor of measuring it, one stepping
off one side, the other the other side
Then they fenced it in and were per-
fectly satisfied until recently when suit
was brought to recover q considerable
tract of the land. Each brother swore
that they knew the measurement to be
right, and told how it had been done.
Then, as the spectators saw the short
legs of the one, scarcely long enough to
reach the floor when he sat in a chair,
and the elongated eXtremities of the
other, there was a. general laugh, in
which the judge and attorney joined
Upon surveying, it was found that one
line was mile and half long, and the
other only little over half mile.

the garrison there or TO proceed thence to
kassala or TO Berber. That the expedition
AIRY force, which has been ordered TO advance
toward Dongola. will succeed in beating the
dervishes Is admitted to be doubtful. No
body believes that those regiments in the
Khedive's service which are recruited from
the fcllaheen eau stand against the tribes
men OF the Khalifn. The Soudanese regi-
meuts, on the other hand, are composed Of
much better material. but even these can
hardly be expected to fight with the desper-
rte ardor OF the Mahdists. who believe that
death In battle against the infidel assures
to them nm immediate admission into para
disc. TIL onset Of such men cannot DE
stopped by machine guns, unless the whole
assailing force Is annihilated. 1t was this
astounding fact which drranged Gen. Lord
WOLsELEY's calculations and convinced
him, after GoRDoN's death, that the re-
covery OF Khartoum would not be worth
what IL would cost. There Is no proof that
there has been any decisive change In the
temper Of the Mahdist warriors. Undoubt-
eddy, the most g%rievous misgovernment has
existed during the last ten years through
out the Soudan, and there Is much secret
discomfort, and some open disaffection,
among the tribes which have been the vic
tins Of peculiar oppression, especially those
which nave been driven from their former
homes in the Nile Valley south Of BerDer.
But there is no evidence that the immediate
followers of the Khalifa, the western Arabs
who have migrated in mass to the vicinity of
Omdurmnn. have lost faith in the divine
mission Of the late MAHDI, or IN the claim
90 hiu ItapInpnnt AupIsITAuT m command
their fanatical devotion. Admitting, how
ever. that ~ the end the British and Indian
troops. between them, may be able, at n
great sacrifice of blood and treasure, to
overthrow the Khalifa, we must still recog-
nize that the permanent establishment
of order and civilization in the khe-
dives former possessions will he the
task of many years. For the occupa-
ton of Omdurnan will inevitably lead
to a r]econquest of Kordofan and Darfour on
the west, and of the equatorial province in
the south and the defence Of these outlying
regions will require considerable garrisons,
which must be at least Differed by Euro
peans. 1t is, in a word, the reconstruction
of IA great Egyptian empire to which Eng
land has addressed herself. The plan is too
vast to be carried out in a single generation,
and the prosecution of it will afford n pre-
text for the retention of Egypt under British
protection for n long time to come.
The ultimate result of this expedition will
be that the greatest of African rivers will
belong to England's protege, the khed!ve.
from it's source to its mouths. With the Nile
assured to her, England can afford to re-
nounce the hope of gaining the Orinoco.
She could not obtain both at once; and
therefore we may probably assume that the
Venezuela question will be settled by nego-
~tiation, now that England has determined
to support the khedive's pretensions to the
whole valley of the Nile.

When Secretary WHITNEY built our first
steel ships of the line he called one OF them Maine
and the other Texas, thus linking the extreme
northeast and the extreme southwest In the
honors. When Secretary Tracy followed with
another group of battle ships, he found names
for them In an Atlantic, n Pacific, and an inland
State, Indiana, Massachusetts, and Oregon.
The Indiana is In service, and her two mates
are now getting ready for their trial trips. The
Massachusetts has just had a preliminary run
off the Delaware capes. and her record Of 1876
knots recalls the 1891 Of the Indiana's official
trial. Good promise of the Oregon's speed comes
from the Pacific coast, so that we may expect
this fine trio to be rated as 151e-knot ships, or at
half n knot more than their contracts call for.
Three months ago, when the country was
taking n hasty account Of tho ships II could
rely on at once, should hostilities break out. the
Massachusetts and Oregon were not reckOned
in. But they are now available for future
demand. and what this retnforcemen means
is seen by their splendid armor OF Is. II. and Is
inches on sides. barbettes and turrets, and their
tremendous batteries of four l3-inch. eight
s-inch. and four 6.inch rifles each, with thirty
auxiliary pieces. This splendid pair of armor-
clads. ono for the Atlantic and the other for the
Pacific coast. has greatly augmented our float
ing defences. and the Terror and the Monadnock.
only II few days ago. added another welcome
element with their powerful lO-irch batteries.
We shall probably also not have long to wait
for the Puritan. the most powerful of our six
monitors, nor can the trial trip of the Brooklyn,
the largest and most powerful OF our armored
cruisers. be very far Off.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir. The opinion seems
TO be prevalent outside OF New England that this sec.
t!on OF the country Is most strenuously opposed to
any action by the Senate which would tend to recog.
nizc Cuba as belligerent. This conclusion is drawn.
no doubt, after regarding the attitude OF some or our
Senators. who seem TO be leagued together for the
purpose of delaying the recognition Justly due.
To those who think thus, | wish to state most de-
cidedly that the Senators who oppose this recognition
do not voice the sentiments OF their constituents.
That this statement is true "a shown by the action of,
for INSTANCE. the State OF Rhode Island. Both OF our
representatives in the Senate are among those who
ARE cnd"nvoring to defeat the helligercncy resolu.
lions, but give no reasons for their action. In direct
contravcntion to this policy we ind that among the
number OF petitions presented to Congress praying
that recognition be granted the Cubans, which ap.
pcals Senator Morgan used in his argument a few
days ago, and which he referred to as coming directly
from the people of the different sections OF the coun.
try. we fnd the state OF Rhode Island represented
by appeals from three OF her Ave ities-ProvIdencc.
Pawtucket and woonsocset.
We sympathize most sincerely with those poor SUI.
fering people, fighting so brnvely against tyranny and
oppression. Nor do we attempt to disguise our feel
ings in this respect, as is shown by our petitions, and
no acts Of our Senators can undermine them.
