ernment at the rate of s9o,OO0 mile for S,SS6 miles of water nayigable Tor steamboats. The average cost of equip ment of all railroads in the country IS only $54,0 900 a mile. What is still more curious is the fact tht traffic and ton- mage seem to have decreased as the eX- penditures have increased. The heaV- fest expenditures are for the develop ment of the Mississippi system, which will have cost at completion about $150, 900, 900, while the steamboat proper ty of the district is valued at only Sl5- 000,000. Only the Mississippi, Ohio and Red rivers seem to have profited by the outlay, the money spent on the Ken lucky, Cumberland and Tennessee riv- CTS having been substantially a dead loss. What is more dscouraging is the fact that the Improvements on one sec tion of the Mississippi river itself have rendered changes in other sections nec- essary, and have made improvements in still other sections worthless. There seems to be no end to the demands when once the work is begun.

THE TEL EG R1PH 7RTUMPHANT.

At first thought it would seem that telegraph for sending long messages quickly, but it isn't. A week or two ago early news from the Klondike, to the extent of ten thousand words, was sent in it's initial stage from Port Town send to Olympia, over a telephone wire, and thence to San Francisco by regular telegraph line. A newspaper eorre- spondent dictated at Port Townsend, and young lady with receiver at her ear sat at a typewriter in Olympia talk ing the message down. The time occu- pied was five hours, giving, with allow ance for stops and queries, a speed of about thirty-five words per minute. It appears that the telegraph operator had no bother in keeping his copy book clear. This telephone speed is far low CT than had been expected, for in ordi- nary cases the users of telephone speak at a rate of anywhere from one hundred to one hundred and fifty words per minute. The test comes in when an accurate registration of the matter is required, and in that case thirty-five words a minute gives a basis for seeing
 how much of a real competitor with the telegraph over long wires the tele-
 phone is likely to become. With most telephone messages, however, no record i is ever required to be made.
 | In other trials that have been made the telegraph has been the victor. From forty to sixty-five words minute can
 be handled by expert telegraph opera tors, and they have no fear that the telephone will get ahead of them.

ampRic4N TRADE fy CHINA.

Dr. Edward Bedloe, the new consul at Canton, China, believes there is a great future for American trade in China, and as he has had long experience in the consular service in that country his opinion is valuable. But American trade in China needs protection from certain swindles that are perpetrated against it. The English houses, the German companies, the Belgium and French firms leave no stone unturned to hinder or injure us and to kill or hurt American trade to the promotion of their own. When Dr. Bedloe was in China before he made it his business to expose some infamous frauds. One example was an imitation Winchester rifle made in Belgium by an English firm of the lowest grade materials, which was as liable to kill the man who fired it as the man or animal it was fired at. Another instance was the dangerous imitation of American-made cartridges for Winchesters. Colts

of dislike, But there is the dress that must Wear-the office gown, CT the one we don to look after the house in the morning or for other tasks we hate, and poplin is excellent for such uses. That isn't the advertised poplin, however; the advertised poplin is intended for dress wear. For an elderly woman the material is dignifed and uncompromis- ing, and fashion permits it for dress for the rest of us, too, in light colors. It will wear better than silk will for the same purpose, but that's the best many women can be induced to say of it.
 If dressy rig were to be prepared without recourse to the silk and satin counters, most of us would prefer the costume the artist puts here to one of poplin, though this one was made of woolen suiting in a dark graw That description hardly does the material justice, however, for it's surface was of the fine smoothness that only this years fabrics possess, and the gray was one of the new shades that are highly fashionable Black velvet rib- bon trimmed it. as indicated, which was another newly stylish touch. Be- low the velvet bands on the skirt the goods was arranged in funnel pleats, which gave a highly desirable skirt fin- ish, and the skirt was of distinctly dressy length.

A RELIEVED GOVERNOR.

Governor Atkinson of West Virginia has at least respite, and it is quite probable that he will never be called upon to pardon his wife or let her un- dergo punishment for forgery. The jury which had her case has disagreed Seven were for acquitting and five for convicting her This is not very com- fortable for her and her distinguished husband, but it is less troublesome for them than a conviction would have been.
 Perhaps Governor Atkinson will now tell what he would have done if his wife had been convicted. If she had been he would have had quite question be- fore him. He is the head man of his State, sworn to do his duty. He is the head of his household, sworn to protect his wife. If she had been convicted and he had pardoned her he would not have done his duty as the head man of the State. If he had failed to pardon her would he have done his duty as a husband? And which duty would have been the most important and the most binding? If he had pardoned her it is not probable there would have been much serious criticism of his action and if he hadn't there would have been He would have been called more of a governor than a man, and most people would have blamed him for being more of a governor than a man. If he had pardoned his wife and then resigned l his office he would have suited some, and if he had pardoned her and held onto his office he would not have troub- led many.
 l But the governor and his wife are safe for awhile, and it is not probable that he and she will ever be in the awkward situation which at one time seemed to be awaiting them. But it will be quite a while before there is peace over the matter in the newspa- pers and in disputatious homes.
