ENGINEERS WATERLOO.
After Years Of Successful Work He De.
velops Color blindness.

After Years Of Successful Work He De-
veIops Color blindness.
There was peculiar case of color blind
ness brought to the attention Of the super
intendent of n local railway the other day
while test of the visual organs of the en-
ployees was being conducted.
Among those examined was tho engi-
neer OF an express train, who had the repu-
ttion of being one of the best men who
had ever stood in IA locomotive cab
TO the utter surprise Of the superintend-
ont, however, when the man was under
going the examination, it was found that
be was suffering from color blindness Of "a
character heretofore unknown to those
making the tests.
When the engineer was called, the su-
perintendent felt that 1t was almost a
waste of time to apply the tests in his (the
engineer's) case and after he had told off
oil tho colors accurately he was confirmed
in this belief But to make himself doubly
sure that no mistake should be made he
submitted tho man TO n second test. Hold
| ing up piece Of bright red ribbon, he said
| TO the engine man;
"What color do you soe?"
Green was tho prompt reply.
| The superintendent could hardly believe
| his ears, and the question WIS repeated.
"Green," again replied the engineer.
Then tho green ribbon was held up.
"Wbat color do you now seer" inquired
the superintendent.
"Red," was the answer.
The fact that all the colors had boon ac-
curately called at the first trial puzzled
tho superintendent greatly, and no said to
tho engineer that be wished to subject him
to II further examination later in the day.
At the third trial the superintendent
first held up piece Of blue ribbon and
asked tho engineer to name it's color
Blue" he answered, without hesita-
ton.
And this?" elevating n red strip.
Red
"Now this one:" holding up a green.
''Green.''
This result deepened the complexity of
tho examining board, and it was finally
decided to send the man to an expert ocu-
list for still further examination. 1t was
subsequently learned that the engineer had
shown the same peculiar characteristics rs
upon tho three previous tests, which were
sufficient to unfit him for service as an en-
gineer. He was therefore taken from his
engine and given lucrative position In
tho roundhouse. - Boston Herald.

The social event of each winter for the
past three or four years among Providence
Masons and their lady friends has been
the annual reception and social of What
Cheer Lodge, No. 21, A. F. and A. M. Last
evening the large and brilliant assembly
at the Trocadero, the lavish provisions for
the guests pleasure and the thorough en-
joyment of each feature by every one of
the half thousand present, proved that
Mason and society are more closely united
than ever.
There was a hearing yesterday afternoon
on the bill introduced in the State Legis-

by the r. /. S. p. c. c., and that the
violators may be punished with both fine
and imprisonment.

Summer Life In the Hub Over Half u Gen.
tury Ago.
The summer life around Boston was in
1si1 an affair so unlike anything now to
be found In the vicinity MS to seem like
something observed in another country or
period. Socially speaking, it more resem-
bled the plantation life of tho south or the
ranch life of the west Many Of the pros
porous people lived in Boston all summer,
with occasional trips TO Nahant or Sarato-
ga or Ballston or for the more adventur-
Gus journey by stage among the White
mountains, encountering rough roads and
still rougher taverns. But there existed
all around Boston, and especially in Rox-
bury, Irool,lino and Milton, n series Of
large estates with ample houses. all ocou-
pied by people connected In blood or inti-
macy, who drove about and exchanged
Calls on summer afternoons. EQuipages
were simple; people usually drove them
selves: there were no liveries, but the hos
pitality was profuse.
Ny uncle Perkins was poor man COM

September Epidemics Unknown.

The New Orleans Picayune shows by the figures of all ,he ep.demacs the Crss- cent City has experienced since 1S47, that foothold too late '5o let the process of propagation assume serious proportions. Especially is this so in view of the im- proved ard vigorous measures of sani- tation now employed. The disease is comha ted today as rs never has been in apy city, and the danger of an epidemic at the verge of frosts is small indeed. Such adisaster would, in fact, be with out precedent. We give the figures of the Flcayune, taken from the excellent work of Dr. Joseph Jones, long the pres ident of the board of health:

The Navy Getting Ready.

Since the discovery was made that Spanish spies have been studying our Notifications, the naval officials have been making defensive preparations. A well informed official of Washington is quoted as saying:
 The north Atlantic squadron, now cruising off the capes of Virginia, will be the fleet to meet and do battle with the modern armada of Spain. It con- sists of the battle-ships Iowa, Massachu- sets, Indiana, Maine and Texas; the armored cruisers New York and Brook lyn and the unarmed cruisers Marble head and Montgomery.
 This squadron, in point of armor, speed and weight of metal that can be thrown broadside in given time. is the strong est ever gathered under the United States flag and it compares favorably with any squadron of the worlds great powers.
 The secretary of the navy knows at every hour of the day just where it is, and the dispatch boat Dolphin lies at Washington with steam up all the time. If, for instance, war should be declared tomorrow the Dolphin would go flying out with dispatches to Admiral Sicard, sending him to Hayti, to the alternative ports (which are also coaling stations) of Samana bay. on the east coast, and of Mole St. Nicholas. on the west coast.

TELEPHONE CALLS.
Worse and Worse.

Only few weeks ago Spains premier was assassinated, and then a South American president. An attempt was made to kill Faure, and now Diaz has made a narrow escape. The activity of the anarchists causes uneasinsss in Eu- rope and America. There is a spirit of madness abroad in the world, and each day brings the news of flgghtful crimes and calamities.
 The man who reads daily newspapers now is fed upon horrors There was never anything like it In the history of she world. Perhaps there is no remedy. Tn the past many nations have risen only to fall They reached a certain point of civilization, and then fell 10 pieces.
 In this fast age everything has de- veloped rapidly. It may be that the time has come for the bonds of religion, morals and law to be loossned, and na- tions and individuals are to plunge into the deepest excesses, and be destroyed It is a pessqmistic view, but the facts sustain 1t.

Keep the quarantine in motion.

Chicago Irter-Ocean.
 The last reported lynching is the worst, and it is not southern atroci- ty," nor are its victims negroes. On Tuesday night some 400 armed men broke into the jail at Versailles, Ind, and took thence five men, charged with no crime more serious than burglary, and deliberately murdered them.
 Versailles is in the southern part or Indiana, and within fifty miles of Cin- cinnatf; it has two newspapers, several churches, and an admirable system of free schools, and about 5000 inhabitants What has civilization accomplished in Versailles? It has provided railways, telegraphs, electric lights, churches, schools, newspapers, and lynch law!
 There can be no doubt that the gov ernor of Indiana will offer aid to the officials of Ripley county, in which Yer sailles is situate, for the arrest and con- viction of the leaders of the murdering mob but until condign punishment is inflicted upon them the grand old com monwealth that has given Morton and Gresham and Harrison to the nation must stand disgraced.

On the Right Line.

Scores of The Age-Herald's bright contemporaries are praislng it for not giving up its space to politics. The truth is the people are tired of the sams old political platitudes and the same puffing of the same crowd of office seek CTS.
 The people have other interests. How to build up towns, develop resources start great enterprises, give employment to labor, make two dollars circulate where it is now hard to find on4-these are our business problems. Then, the young are to be educated intellectually and morally; the women want their field of work broadened, and thsre are dozens of other essng matters which need attention.
 Naturally, a paper which recognizes the importance of these things will make friends, and The Age-Herald is delighted to find that the press and the people are unanimous in declaring that it is on the right line.
 First, let us build up and take care of our business interests. There will be tims for politics later. The people like an honest newspaper that prints the news

Trouble Ahead.

The shooting of the negro postmaster at Hogansv.lle, Ga, was am outrage, and Its perpetrators should be punished, but it might have been expected. Why did Mr. Mckinley appoint several negroes to office in the south, where they would be brought in offensive contact with the whites? Was it not the presidents idea that trouble would follow, giving the ruling party pretext for rcviving the force bill, and perhaps placing some southern states under federal martial law?
 It looks like 1t. MT Mckinley has no,. tned to conciliate the south. He has persistcntly made appointments which he know would stir up race antagonism and place the southern whites in an at- titude of hostility or oysloyalty to the government The idea is to hold the whole south responsible for the acts of a few unknown ho. o.-headed persons, who do not represent their communities.
 There Is more trouble coming, and then the south-haters will make us feel Uncle Sam's heavy hand.

Both have cable communica ton with Washington for further orders.
 Then the commerce destroyers, Colum- bia and Minneapolis, would be sent df- rectly away to the coast of Spain, and the four American liners, St. Paul, St. Louis, Paris and New York, would be summoned to the Brooklyn navy yard to have 5-inch guns placed upon the twelve platforms with which each Is equipped. These six scout" or observa- tion ships would be to1ed off to watch the ports of Cadiz or Terrol, the only places in Spain where fleets can bs utll- ized. They are not supposed to do any fighting. In fact, if any battleship came out after them they are to run out of danger, and then return to their watch. In case Spanish fleet takes five or six weeks to get ready and the "scouts" get out of coal a collier will be sent from some English port to fill them up at sea.
 When the Spanish fieet-which our naval experts expect will be made up of two battleships, five armored cruisers, several unarmored cruisers and three torpedo destroyers-gets under way, 1t cannot move as a whole faster than twelve knots.
 "Our six ships can keep up with this at half speed in front and in rear and on the Hanks. If any battle-ship leaves the Spanish squadron to engage an American vessel it will run-no ship in the Spanish fleet could possibly overtake any one of our six-and then work back to it's bulldog watch.
 It is believed that, even if the Span iards should gain the first battle. fleet from Key West would be able to cap ture Havana, and soon disperse the enemy's ships. It is encouraging to see this sudden interest in naval affairs, and 1t is time for the government to make preparations on an extensive scale for a war which may break out any year or any month. A big navy yard is needed at Mobile and an armor plate plant at Birmingham. The southern sea coast defenses also need attention.
 It is Q mistake to suppose that all the work of preparing for war can be done in one section of the country. The south will have to do her share of it or her de- fenseless condition will invite attack from foreign foe when 1t is least ex- pected. The single state of Alabama is able to do as much as any state in the union in the work of building and equip ping navy, with 1ittss aid from the government in the shape of the neces- sary plants. The raw material is all ready.

IS AN IDEAL HUSBAND.
Senator Ben Tillman Never Acts Contrary to His
 Wife's Wishes.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
 Some Chicago wives would like to see their husbands take pattern after Sem ator Ben Tillman, of South Carolina, who, in all the years of his married life, was never known to act against the ad- vice of his wife but once. This was when he accepted pass over a railroad. He had made a bitter fight against the railroads and had denounced the for mer governors who had been as he aI- legged, in league with them against the interests of the farmer. Mrs. Tillman argued that the acceptance of the light est favor would cast a suspicion of in- sincerity upon him and that he would be censured even by his strongest ad- herents. Ben Tillman used the pass, and Mrs. Tillman's predictions >~-re at once verified. He was severely criti- cised, and for the first time in his career his motives were questioned by his own party.
 Tillman's favorite hour for conference with his wife is at dusk, when he re- turns home exhausted with his own ve- hemence during the day. He overturns a chair, and throwing off his coat, filings himself ull length upon the floor. He rests his head upon his coat as a pillow and then calls Mrs. Tillman tocome and talk to him. Often she has looked up some desired information for him, the early accident to his eye necessitatng caution az tinsi overtaSing 1t. She plans with him the campaigns of the next day, while he lolls and losses on the floor. An occasional business messen- ger sometimes an intimate friend calls interrupting him. He does not observe the formality of rising and resuming his coat. but sings out in jolly rough- and-ready way to come on and talk, then and there: Mrs. Tillman reads much, devoting herself especially to pol itics and history. It is laughingly as- serted by her intimates that she has read and remembers everything. She serves as @ work of ready reference to her husband, and supplies the ideas and statistics with which his speeches abound.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
 It was on tine l o'clock car of the State Street line early Monday morning. The car which had be=n bowling along quite rapidly. was hailed by a belated female at Twsnty-ninth street. The driver stopped and the young woman, who was not by any means beautiful, jumped aboard the car. Sha took a. seat among the sleepy men inside, but the next moment she jumped up again, blushing furiously. She went out on the back platform and whispered something very confidential to the conductor. The latter began immediately to grin. The car was now at Thirtieth street and the conductor jumped off and ran ahead. .'Now's your chance" he called to the girl, and she jumped off and lodged around a corner The car waited. "Hur- ry up, there, 1adyp' called the conduc- tor. A moment later the girl came back, carefully rearranging her skirts, and carrying a $1 bill in her hand. She was blushing more furiously than ever. The conductor rang the bell Co go ahead and took the lady's fare, giving her back a handful of small coins. What was the matter?' asked an inquisitive passenger on the back platform. "Oh, nothin'." replied the blase conductor only some wimmin' uses deihr stockins fur pock- etbooks and sometimes it's inconveni- ent
