The Largo Oar Movement.

The recent orders for large cars
which has been noted are indicators OF
progress in two directions, which have
frequently been mentioned % natural
courses of development. The first 10
the tendency to decrease the number of
units in trains hauling heavy traffic,
especially upon lines where tho neces-
sary restrictions of car Interchange are
less heavily felt. This is the logical
field for the initistion of the large car
movement, and while, a. has before
been stated, it is probable that it il
desirable to limit Interchange cars for
the present to $4,000 pounds capacity
on nOn-interchange lines will 20 far to
minimize the objections that now oap-
pear. The second progressive m We
ment is in the use OF steel In frame and
trucks. Large cars cannot be Q success
without the use of metal, and the belief
10 held largely that the use of metal
for frames and trucks at least affords
the solution of the problem of repairs.
even in cars of ordinary capacity. II
the experimental use of large steel cars
shall prove the latter point alone, it
will be sufficient to make an era In car
building .-RailwayA Age.

cave has been known for many years,
but none thought to make a thorough
exploration until last week when Theo-
dore Foreman was employed to blast q
way in front Of it to clear the site for a
new bath house. Suddenly one shot
broke downward into new chamber
that rivals anything in cave history.
Immense stalactites and stalagmites
adorn the floor, walls aud ceiling, as
pure Is glass; Egyptian vessels filed
y it'll relics of past and forgotten ages:
rude implements Of both peace and
war. @
Tho discovery Is too new but for
meager details but enough is learned
to know that at old man with snow
white hair lives in some Of the inner
chambers and is beginning to make
wsrlike threats at all intruders.
How to make peace with him and
gain an entrance to the secret inner
chambers, which to the public Is the
holy of holies, Is now the question.
There is nc doubt but that he is strict
descendant in direct line with the Az
toe race, and probably the last living
specimen of the ancient people who
woxe the gold of the Rio Grande into
their royal vestments when Memphis
and Thebes were the capitals OF the
world -Optic.

ANOTHER lecture recently delivered

ANOTHER lecture recently delivere
by Professor David Starr Jordan, head
OF the Leland Stanford university in
California, is likely to again stir up
some of the eastern pulpit orators. ON
the subject of the "higher heredity,' -
that is, what man makes out of him
self, he said: Each man, with the
material which he has can build temple
or a pig PEN" Referring to the mod
ern tendency to Hindoo esoterics, as
manifested by the spread of modern
spirituafism and theosophy, he uttered
this striking sentence: mo new fact
ever came through frances, clairvoy-
snce, telepathy, theosophy. christian
science or any other form of dreaming;
whatever is occult or uncanuy is un-
clean or insane, or unknown"

: CLOSE akin to''General" Coxey's
plan ''to enable the unemployed to earn
a living, to utilize industry and pro-
duce general prosperity" is the bill
introduced in the house few days
since by Congressman Ridgely, populist
of Kansas. This bill authorizes each
state, territory, county, city, town,
township, or school district to raise
money for giving employment on pub
lie works by issuing non-interest-
bearing bonds of twenty-five years,
payable only to the United States, not
to exceed half the assessed value of
the property of the state or municipali-
ty. In return for the bonds the United

withstsnding the extraordinary flood
in the Mississippi river. The lower
levels of the city were submerged by
the great food OF IS49, but this occurr-

danger has since been provided against
by the building of cross levee to keep
water out of the city proper and turn
it to the gulf by another channel.
