strange ob-tinacy of "A Mexican.

One evening as the express train of the
Mexican Central was approaching Mex
leo city, the engineer observed an Indian
shepherd lying on the track. The en-
gineer wihistled five or six times, but
the man would not get up. and it was
impossible to stop the engine in time.
The pilot of the locomotive struck the
head of the PROSTATE man and rolled
him down an embankment. When the
train was stopped and the conductor
and some Of the passengers nlighted to
look to the man, it was found that,
though he had suffered rather severe
scalp wound, he was not dangerously
injured. He was able TO SIT up while
his head was bound with his wife's
retozo. Some of the passengers wanted
to bring in the Indian to be ATTENDED TO
at one of the police stations OF the city,
but he absolutely refused, and getting
up he walked without difficulty with
his wife to a neighboring hacienda,
where he is employed. He would give
no explanation as to why he had re-
fused TO move off the track when he
heard the train approaching g--Mexican

HOW to Serve Potatoes.

Old potatoes boiled whole, peeled and covered with z. sauce made by cooking together half pint of milk, table spoonful of butter and one of flour, are better thus prepared than when served in any other fashion. New potatoes are waxy until late in the season, and should not be given to children or to persons of delicate digestion. The old fashioned saying that new potatoes should never be eaten before the Fourth of July contains a certain amount of common sense, although the rule ap- plies to homegrown potatoes and not to those that come to our markets from the far south. There are certain veg etables which depend little upon the variety of cooking to be palatable. Of these are green peas, string beans, as paragus and q few besides These, if boiled until tender and dressed simply with butter, salt and little pepper, are too good to be improved by any change. But there are others that can be cooked in variety of ways, and each will be found acceptable.-St. Louis Republic.

FRIEND OF THE TREES.
Honor to Robert Douglas, the Pioneer
 American Horticulturist.

American HOrticulturist.
 Few men in America have ever been more esteemed for brilliant services to. horticulture. or more beloved by his fellows for his amiable qualities, than Robert Douglas, of Waukegan, IL, who was found dead in his office chair on the lst of June. He had had a paralytic stroke a month before, but seemed to have measurably recovered, and main tained his active interest in every good work about him to the last. He was born in Yorkshire, in England, but from early life had a passion for gar dening. Even when an apprentice to tailor he closely cultivated Q 20-foot square lot of ground, and was warmly interested in matters connected with naturai history, in which love of birds was especially prominent, He first ca1ns to Canada then to Vermont, tinal- lg settling in Waukegan. He was very fond of travelling. and was one of the first to make an overland trip to the Pacific by the Humboldt River route America owes him debt of gratitude as being the first to show that ever greens could be raised as profitably in the new as in the old world. He was also the first to know the great value of the western catalpa, catalpa speciosa for timber, and the first to prove, by actual experiment, that forestry plant | ing could be made profitable in Amer ica. The superior hardness of the Col orado form of the Pacific species oi conifera, which knowledge has beer worth many thousands of dollars tt | Colorado, was the result of his close ob servation and intelligence. No ont connected with horticulture in Amer ica has ever passed away with suci widespread regret. No one will ever b. more keenly missed by wide circle O frieuds.-Meehan's Monthly.

MUNICIPAL oEvELoPMEnT.
The Democratic Government of Some
 Cities of Europe.


 Observers of modern municipal der velopment on both sides of the. Atlantic cannot but be struck. with a curious anomaly. In some countries of Eu- rope, where the administration of city affairs is controlled only to very lim- ited extent, or not at all, by the great mass of the citizens, municipal govern ments are conducted upon broader and more popular lines than in the United States, where universal suffrage pre- vails. Tn certain sense. Berlin and Paris are actually more democratic ithzn New York and Chicago The Peo- pie of the former cities have. indeed, nothing like the direct control over their city government which those of the hitter enjoy, dn theory at least. But if we form our judgment moi by the scope of the elective franchise, but by that of services rendered, we shall have to award the palm for variety and rse- fitness of municipal activity, for bene- fits conferred upon the masses of the people, to the foreign cities. An in- tclligent observer, with no other knowl- edge than that derived from a com parison of work done and results se cured, would doubtless conclude that the people ruled more fully in Paris than in New York, in Berlin than in Chicago. In score of different direc- tions the interests of the average citi- zen are better and more fully cared for, his wants more fully met in the great city of Europe than in that of Amer ica. Municipal government in the old world seems to be for the people, if not by the people.
 The question whether such public services as lighting, by gas or cleo tricity, and passenger transportation in the streets should be intrusted to corporations or performed directly by the municipality is one which is giving rise to great deal of discussion in this country and the sentiment in favor of municipal ownership is unquestionably growing. The fact that franchises and locations in the streets have been so universally given to private corpora tions in our great cities and that an enormous amount of capital has been invested in their securities makes any attempt to inaugurate the European practice of public ownership, with operation either directly by the city or under lease from it, exceed ingly difficult. But aside from the question of dealing fairly with vested interests there seems to me to be no reason why an American city should not take up any service of this charae- ter which may be recommended by business and financial considerations. There is no principle tAat stands in the way. for instance, of the municipal ownership and operation of an electric light plant. It is. purely commercial question in each particular case. The electric-nghting business in particular, with the present improved dynamos and engines, is one which properly or ganized city ought to be able to con duct for itself with some economy and adyantaPe.-Arena.

PLAYERS SALARIES.
It Is Said the Women Earn More Than
 the Men.

the Men.
 A theatrical gossip, who has statis- tical bent, has gathered some interest ing information about the salaries of professional players in this country and Europe. Thus he tells us that in Eng land Julia Nelson receives E 100 a week and Ellen Terry a150. The high est priced stock company actress in the world at present is Ada Rehan, who, between salary and percentage of the receipts, earns about $900 week. Oscar Hammerstein on one occasion of- fered to engage Olga Nethersole for the entire season at 1000 week, but the matter fell through and the great os- culator subsequently signed contract with the Frohmans at $500 week. Georgia Cayvan received S250 week for nine years, and before that $200 8 week. The salary of Viola Allen is $50 and that of Elsie De Wolf is $75. Vir- ginia Harmed earned $100 week, but at present she need not bother about the modesty of her salary, for the in come of her Eew husband, B. H. Soth- ern, has averaged between S50,000 and s70,0O0 for some years. The highest priced actress ever employedby man ager was Sarah Bernhardt, who re- ceiyed S1,500 a week all the year round from Henry E. Abbey. Eleanor Duse plays invariably on percentage of the receipts, pays for her own company, scenery and costumes, and manages tc earn about s55, ,0O0 a year. oddly enough, good actresses are more plen- tifal than goed actors, yet they de- mand. receive and in most cases merit higher salaries than are paid their brothers on the stage. Duse's income is four times that of her leading man. Arnod; Bernhardts nearly ten tiGles that of her leading man. Darmont; Mel- ba and Calve each receive S1, 800 night, and Flames and Nordica earned all most twice as much as Pol Plancon and Edouard de Reszeke. In the Dam rosch company Lilli Lehman's salary was $1,000 night, while the most ex- pensive tenor, Kraus, received only $500. In comic opera. Lillian Russell has reached the high-water mark in salary by receiving s1,500 a week from Abbey, Schoeffel & Grau, Yvette Guil- bert earning S4,0O0 a week, while Albert Chevalier, who has an equal reputation in vaudeville, received only $500 from Charles Frohman. Loie Fuller earned $50,000 in one winter, and Anna Held carried home S30,000 at the end of last season. In the lowest as well as in the hiChest denartments of the theaters women generally receive more money than can be earned by men.-Detroit Free Press.

cruel deception that has brought wide spread disaster to innocent people. It has lead old men and women to ruin. inducing them to invest the little hoards Eso carefully guarded, to secure their declining years, and forced them to struggle for subsistence when they snould be enjoying the fruits of their earlier labors, and at a time when age handicaps their struggle for existence. 1t but lured hundreds of people to their undoing and held them here under a continuance of the misrepresentations until, thoroughly despoiled, their des- ] perate condition has ssbt them adrift on the world under the gloomiest con ditons. 1t has prematurely aged those gh2 have passed through the strain to which fl victims have been subjected, some of waom came seven years ago on the strength of the City Company's $, ,000, ,eO0.
 The guilty parties to this transaction shoul not be allowed to escape the re- sponsibility. Probably majority of the directors believed the statements which appeared over their names. Their president alone had personally conducted the negotiations in Balti- more. Notwithstanding that he joined in the above tribute to Mir. Cameron, the then president, who was with MT. Cameron in Baltimore in the fall of 1894 has since stated that MT. Cameron was not entitled to any credit in the matter, as he was unable to approach Mir. Brown who didn't like him ;and the only time Mir. Cameron saw Mir. Brown was when he went to the bank to say good by. The president reconsidered all the eulogies of Mr Cameron that he deliveredat the bonus meeting, and has since been posi- tive that the credit for securing the money was all his own. He was a vel come visitor at the bank, standing high in Mir. Browns estimation because of his resemblance to Mir. Browns father. He explained everything to the Balti- more people, closed the negotiations and must have been familiar with every detail of the deal. If so, as man of high and noble purposes, with the well fare of those who were lured in here by the six cash millions, and of all who followed resting heavily on his con science, it was his uDmistal<able duty to make known the exact terms of the deal, so that DO more unsortunates could be lured to destruction through false representations.
 The time is ripe for m explanation of this matter. II should be explained by this gentlemhu. whose guileless ua- ture has subjected him to so many de- captions at the hands of various officials of those companies, came to be So grossly deceived by the Baltimore peo- pie, if this was another deception. It looks like case of hypnotism. And seeing that every deception of this gentleman has caused irreparable dis aster to innocent people, he should withdraw from occupations that trans form his innocence to an engine of dis aster, and retire to the congenial cot ton field.

CRAFTS IN THE DELAWARE RIVER,
The Cruisers Minneapolis and Coz

Attcntion--Tho Secretary Declined

Philadelphia, oct. 29.-Secretary of
the Navy Long today made an inspec-
tion Of the improvements under way in
the Delaware river and visited League
Island navy yard as the guest of mem
bers of the Pennsylvania delegation In
congress. The trip of the secretary to
this city was the result of the recent re-
port of the naval board of experts who
ignored the claims Of the friends Of
League Island as a site for a big fresh
water dry dock. Mr.. Long went on
board the steamer Columbia" at 10
o'clock this morning. He was greeted
by number of business men, coun-
cimcn and members of congress inter-
ested in the deepening of the Delaware
river and the Improvement of League
Island. Under the escort of Commodore
Howell, commander of the navy yard,
and United States Senator Boies Pen
rose, Secretary Long made a thorough
inspection of the navy yard and looked
over the cruisers Minneapolis and Co.
lumbia, the ram Katahdin. and the
monitor Miantonomah. anchored in
the Delaware river, and also viewed
the seven monitors anchored in the
Schuylliiil river in the rear Of the navy

any opinion regarding what he saw
further than to say that he had an
altogether new impression of the yard
and its advantages.
Senator Penruse expressed the hope
that the secretary would recommend
the erection Of a dry dock at League
Island of sufficient size to accommO-
date the largest ships of our navy.
The secretary intimated his belief that
the yard possessed natural advantages
as a site for a great fresh water basin
in which the ships of the navy could
ride at anchor when not in active SER
vice. When Congressman Butler, of
Chester, called the attention of Secre-
tary Long to the advantages of Ches-
ter as a location of a government ar
NOR plate plant the secretary made the
significant remark that he did not ia
vOr the government manufacturing ar
ticles that could just as well be made
by private individuals Congressman

a member of the naval committee, eX-
planned to Secretary Long the great
engineering work being performed at
Diamond shoal, below Chester, Pa,
where an immense ledge of quartz is

turned TO Washington tonight.
