Electricity and steam.

Ever since the successful spplica-
ton of electricity a. a motive power
The prediction that 1t would supplant
steam on the great highways OF trait
fic has been freely made
Those who think that this prophecy
is slow of fulfllment shodld remnm-
Der how brief has been the period
since even street car was propelled
by electricity, aud how vast are the
interests now involved in steam ma
chiuery,
But electricity is gradually snd
steadily making its way Several OF
the smaller railways of New Eng land
are already equipped entirely with
electric eugiues, aud another was
added to the list last week.
A prominent railroad man WAC
witnessed the fusl test III that case
remarked that he expected "to see
locomotives go iuto the scrap heap,
rs the odd stage coaches mad to co."
1t will require time, however and
much of it to make this revolution.
Money is going into steam railroads
every dar, and vast amotntOt II rs
now Invested in such property.
Take the item OF locomotives alone
There are already over $4,000 of them
III use on the railroads of ;hc Uhlled
States representing Il value Of at least
$27O000,000 while their original cost
WAS nearly twice that sum. Here is a
conservative force which win contend
mighty against the advance of cleo
tric,ty as a propelling power
Bul though the conle may be long
aud stubborn the result ls a foregone
conclusion. Economy, the greatest
element in investment and operation,
is on the side of electricity, and pro-
badly there are children now living
who will see the day when they will
look upou a steam locomotive as a
curioslt, aud wonder that their ia
theirs could be satisfied with such u
clumsy conrriVauce for transportation
and speed.-All anta Journal.

GOLDEN PHEASANTS IN VIR.
GINA

Maj F. w. Houston, of Lexington,
Va, has received four full grown Mon
golian golden pheasants, ordered by
him from Oregon some time ago. The
birds have been placed in pairs in wire
Enclosures, built on the Welsh and the
Teaford farms, near Alone Hills. These
pheasans propagate very rapidly and
are prolific layers, laying from seventy
to eighty eggs year. AS the birds will
not attempt to raise broods while in con-
fnement, or when first transported
from their native soil, the eggs will be
placed under hens and hatched. When
the young pheassnts are old enough to
care for themselves they will be turned
loose in various parts of the county.
These pheasants are very much like
the ordinary pheasants of this country
in appearance, only the male has more
brilliant plumage than the American
bird They were first introduced into
this country in the State of Oregon
from China some years ago and now
they number millions in that State. II
these birds flourish here as they did
there, there will be no complaint of a
scarcity of game birds in the county.
The total cost of the four birds was $33
and this amount will be shared by Maj.
Houston and a number OF other sports
men interested in the movement.

Railroad News from up the state.

The Ogdensburg and Champlain rail
road, the lease of which was surrendered
recently by the Central Vermont company,
had been under the control of the latter
system since 1SsG, and the connection was
of great Importance, as it furnished a
freight line to Chicago by means of the
steamers plying from Ogdensburg through
the Great Lakes. But it is claimed that the
surrender of the Ogdensburg and Lake
Champlain road is an advantage to the
Central Vermont system, as a new railroad
has been constructed westward from OF
tawa, to be operated in connection with
the Canadian Atlantic, which connects
with the Central Vermont at Rouses
Point. The Ottawa extension, called the
Ottawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound rail
road, is now in operation to Georgian Bay,
and gives the shortest connection to Lake
Huron, Lake Michigan and Lake Superior
The new railroad also opens up a lumber
region, which will furnish large traffic to
the Central Vermont for years. The Cen
troll Vermont will retain its lease of the
New London Northern division, with New
York city connection by boat from New
London. 1t is claimed that the surrender
of the Ogdensburg and Rutland railroads
will mean saving in rentals alone to the
Central Vermont of about half million
dollars annually, while the business of the
Central Vermont ought to be nearly as
large as before. The Burlington Free
Press believes that the Ogdensburg road is
destined to play an important part in con
necton with the Rutland railroad, and the
appointment of Traffic Manager Hodge of
the Rutland road to the same position on
the Ogdensburg gives color to this report.
Nothing is more natural than that the
short connecting link between the two
roads, involving possibly the revival of the
Lamoille extension from Rouses Point to
Maquam should be constructed in the near
future, thus providing for another through
line for western freight to Boston by way
of Vermont.
