THE MosLEM WORLD.
It's Wrath Rising Against the Policies OF
Europe.

Europe.
1t almost seems as if the words of the
deceased French statesman, jules
Simon. who died in June last, had II
them the possibilities Of prophecy.
Beware! he said, in substance, of the
Mohammedans. They see Europe
overrunning Asia and Africa. The
question with them is: To be or not tc
be?' The relations between the con-
quered MoslenS peoples are being Sc
cretly revived. Everything in the east
is asleep; nothing is dead. Be on your
guard against the awakening"
These words are brought 10 mind by
the dispatch of the Herald's special
correspondent in Constan tinople, Mr..
Sidney Whitman. 1t is a remarkable
dispatch and is worthy of a serious con-
sideFation by the peoples of Europe.
The Moslem world is weary of domino
ton and interference and senseless
slaughter in the name of Christian civ
lization. Among the Softas. the lead
ers OF thought in the Turkish Moham-
metlan world. the conviction gains
ground. Mr.. Whitman says, that the
twilight of Moslem rule in CONSTANT
nople has come. Remembering their
warIike past. the Mohammedans have
in despair resolved to light the funeral
pyre. The English attacks on the
sultan have increased their determine
ton to face unfinchingly the worst
There is probably a great truth in
these words, and if the torch of fanati-
cism Is once lighted throughout tbs
Mosiem world who can tell the end:
The Italians have been defeated and
driven out of Abyssinia by the ne
gus. who is Il Christian, but who
had to make alliances with the
deryishes in order to maintain his
independence and his very existence.
Now the English are pressing on to the
sacred city of the dervishes in the
Soudan. with the intention Of wiPing
that stronghold of MosIemism out OF
existence. VIII they or can they sur
coed? Reflect" said Jules Simon
that there are behind the dark curtain
in Asia and Africa more than TWO or
three civilizations of immense az
tiquity. ready 20 recognize and revive
their ancient glories. and all the more
formidable that after long resistance
they have condescended TO use the
| weapons acquired from US"

PNEUMATIC BEDS
Latest Innovasion In Railway Travel ~
Applied To Sleeping Cars.


latest innovation In Railway Travel ~
Applied TO Sleeping Cars.
Sleeping on air is the latest innova.
ton in railway travel. The use of
compressed air for that purpose win,
in the estimation of railway men,
eventually revolutionize railway travel
and relegate the familiar and some
what clumsy Wagner and Pullman
sleeping cars TO the background.
At present the only car completely
fitted with compressed air cushions and
beds is the private car of Vice President
j. y. SHOEMAKER, of the Pittsburgh
& Lake Erie railroad. These have been
found, however, to pc not only practic-
able, but to possess so many advantages
over the accommodations of ordinary
sleeping and parlor cars that number
of roads are having similarly fitted ones
constructed, and before long they will
be in general use on many of the great
trunk lines of the country.
Co. Schoonmaker's car was built
after the plans of L. T. Ruth, the IN
ventor of the latest system Of car fur
nishing. In appearance it does not diff
fer externally from the ordinary car
chair. This is explained by the fact
that instead of the usual upholstering
the chair cushions are filed with COM
pressed air, which lessons, in great
degree. to the occupant the joiting and
Earring of the car when in motion
During the day no one would for
moment suppose that he was riding in
a sleeping car, and it is not until the
day coach is transformed into a sleep
er that the possibilities of the use OF
compressed air in this direction are
fully realized.
The transformation is effected in this
wise. First, the air in the chair cush-
ions is exhausted, the light framework
folded DIP and slipped into an open
ing in the side of the car. Thus all the
seats i'll the car are disposed of, and it is
ready for the beds.
The panels on either side of the win
dows open outward like a door. On
the inside of these panels is a metal
track over which is drawn a steel
spring-like arrangement, which sup
ports the bed. Fitting closely against
the side of the car and concealed during
the day by the closed panels is rubber
bag folded after the fashion of an ac-
Gordon.
By turning valve connected with
storage tank beneath the car COM
pressed air is admitted into the ruoDer
bag. which initiates and forces itself
outward from the sides of the car until
it rests upon the steel framework, and
the bed is ready to be made up. The
head and foot of the bed are panels,
which also fit into the side of the car.
When the berth or bed is not desired
for use another valve is turned, and the
air in the mattress expelled. The mat
tress itself assumes the appearance of
an empty rubber bag, and is drawn
back against the side closed and the
sleeping car is once more ready to be-
come the parlor car for the day trav'
eler.
One great advantage claimed for
these appliances is that they can be fit.

Autumn muses. and remembers,
Bending stern regretful eyes.
The imperious purple burning
From her cheek hath burned away,
And her bosom feels but yearning
For the golden yesterday.
Though her kingdom fall asunder
Through seditious winds and frost,
And the drums of winter thunder,
And she sees that all is lost,
Yet her royal pride ensureth
That none whisper word of scorn:
Haggard, battled, she endureth,
With a spirit upward borne.
Eyes that love her grieve serenely
At the pathos of 1t all,
In her bounty free but Queenly,
Now unbendfng in her fall.

Said the poet: This IS odd:
I'm in thorns myself
ssBrambIes, brambles everywhere.
Roses all too few;
Who so aedged me roundabout?
Love, swear twas you
s~Though unkind to me you've been.
Still my hand I'll lend:
Aid me, Love. and III aid you,
And our feUd shall end"
So inseparable they go;
Friendly as may be;
Love delights to have his darts
Tipt with minstrelsy.
Happy, too, the poet is
That his songs do rest.
Close behind some silken folds,
Deep in beauty's breast.

But, somehow, when sec it, there is music

And a rich and ringing chorus to the blue

And song of freedom echoes from the bell

I stand with head uncovered where the
guards are pacing round.
And the very sod beneath me seems the
hottest of ground:
I see the sabers flashing on the fields where
heroes fell,
And the ghosts OF all the patriots seem
thronging round the bell!
It rings, 1t rings forever! Adown the ages

It's thrilling notes OF freedom are swept
