Useful Railroad Invention.

Mr.. Mord. Roberts, master mechanic
in charge OF the Arkansas and Central
division of the Iron Mountain ro' d,
Gays the Houston Post. has perfected
and has in use on good many of the
engines on the Gould system a new
device in the shape of an air blow-off
cock, by the use of which an engineer
can clean out the boiler of locomotive
on the road without any trouble what
ever. 1t ia operated by valve in the
cab. and is as easily handled as the en-
gineer's valve to the air brake, or the
sanding device. This is especially i'm
portant in the southwestern country,
where the railroads have to contend
with so much bad water. If an engine
is foaming on the road the engineer,
by the use of the Roberts air blow off
cock, can change the water in the
boiler while running, as the blow-off
cock is automatic in its action.

TalleSt Landmark in the World.

The most important island in the Ca
nary group is Teneritfe, whose famous
mountain is known to navigators as one
of the most imposing landmarks in the
world. The mountain rises II, 1S2 feet
above the sea, the peak having the
form of q sugar loaf. Considering the
fact that the island itself is mountain,
springing almost perpendicularly from
the ocean, the bottom of which is six
miles below, Teneriffe is the Hottest
peak in the world. Beside it Mon
Blanc is q pygmy: CotopaXi, Kinchint
junga and Mount Everest dwindle by
comparison. While all the islands are
volcanic and all contain evidences of
very recent action, Teneriffe is the
only one which still continues in
eruption. The summit of the noun
tain is circular wall, inclOsing
crater a mile in diameter and over 100
feet in depth. From the offing. and
even from the seashore, the sides of
Teneriffe seem as though carved by
hand, but the immense size of the
mountain is in proportion to the crater,
although it seems incredible to the
looker-on that at the mountain top
there would be one of the largest era
tiers in the world. The great crater of
Teneriffe has been 9uiescent ever
since the island was rediscovered by
Europeans early in the fifteenth centu-
ry, but in scores of places on the noun
tain side there are similar craters
which continually emit sulphurous
streams and gases, and occasionally
throw out small quantities of lava

Sparks From The Enulne.

Foreman Savage of the r. p, had
his force busy yesterday placing new
ties and new steel in the coach sheds
Within the next few days the Hous-
ton East and West Texas railroad will
receive at Houston so new freight
cars. and next month five locomotives
will arrive for the same road.
Engineers bulletin, dated August s.,
says that on and after the above date
the rating for Brooks engines number
ed from 199 to S04, both inclusive, will
be 535 tons between Ration and Las
Vegas.
Work on the extension of the T. p.
round house commenced yesterday
There will be four stalls added to the
present number, making total of
eight. The coach sheds are completed
all but Smuggling.
There is every reason to believe that
all roads leading into El Paso will en-
Joy rushing business this fall. They
have had the heaviest summer bust
ness in years, and the fall trade is al
ready opening up.
G. NJ. Hall, superintendent of brid-
ges and buildings of the T. P who has
been looking over the improvements
on this end of the line returned to his
headquarters at Baird, Texas, yester-
day. He was we'll pleased with the
progress being made.
A railroad will be built from San
| Diego to Yuma, Arizona, the Tribune
asserts, by the owners of the sulphur
| mines on the desert. When that is
accomplished the story of the man who
| went back to Yuma after his blankets,
will become obsolete. With easy COM
munication established between San
| Diego, Yuma and the sulphur mines
his satanic majesty would undoubtedly
| removed his headquarters provided he
could make up his mind which of the
two places to select.

which is essential to true courage and
victory. That they were mistaken is
clear, for the striking feature of the
battles has been the courage and fear
lessness of the men under fire. This
is well shown by the way in which
nearly all the men of SIMPSONS fleet
volunteered to go on the Merrimac
with Hobson to almost certain death.
Constantly recurring victories have ma
turally brought about great
deal OF enthusiasm among our
fighters. Probably one of the most
picturesque examples of enthusiasm
displayed in this war is shown in the

Land of the Sky

In western North Carolina, between
the Blue Ridge on the east and the AL
leghanies on the west, in the beautiful
valley OF the French Broad, two thou
sand feet above the sea, lies Asheville,
beautiful, picturesque and world-famed
as one of the most pleasant resorts in
America. 1t is land of bright skies
and incompatible climate, whose
praises have been sung by poets, and
whose beauties OF stream, valley and
mountain height have furnished sub
ject and inspiration for the painters

Sky and there is perhaps no more
beautiful region on the continent to at
tract pleasure tourists or health seek
ers. Convenient schedules and very
low rates to Asheville via Southern

About one month ago my child,
which is fifteen months old, had an
attack of diarrhoea accompanied by
vomiting. L gave it such remedies as
are usually given in cases, but as moth
ing gave relief, We sent for q physician
and it was under his care for week.
At this time the child had been sick
for about ten days and was having
about twenty-five operations of the

were convinced that unless it soon OBJ

If life were one long summer day and its
Journey through a garden of flowers, it
III ght be possible for people to be careless
OF their health without fearing evil results.
Unfortunately, since Adam and Eve were
driven FROM the Garden of Eden, life has
not been toilless journey through garden
of flowers Man must earn bread by the
sweat of his brow and woman must bring
forth children in pain and suffering.
In both cases the curse is multiplied
MANY times over because both men and
women neglect their health. Mans toll is
rendered thousand times harder by the
added burden of ill-health. The woman is
a still greater sufferer. She suffers i'll ST
lence untold agonies from weakness and
disease in a wonanly way. Motherhood
babes are born with the seeds of disease
already implanted in their little bodies.
There is but one unfailing remedy for wom-
en- who suffer i'll this way. 1t is DR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t acts directly OIL
the delicate and important organs that bear
the brunt of maternity. 1t makes them
strong, healthy, vigorous, virile and elastic.
1t allays inflammation, heals liberation,
soothes pain and tones and builds up the
tortured nerves. 1t fits for wifehood and
otherhood. II does away with the trials
of the period of apprehension and makes
baby's advent easy and almost painless.
Thousands have testified to its marvellous
merits
II was afflicted for fonr years with local weak
ness, but would not confess it for time, writes

Bill Wortholder lie a young, tender,
and handsome youth but as these gifts
will not provide board and lodging,
poor Bill must earn his bread by the
sweat of his brow. This he is doing on
the T. P. switchengine, at this end of
the line, under the wstchful eye of
Engineer Lowe. He ia we'll thought OF
by the railroad boys; his request to
have spring seat placed on
his side of the engine is re-
ceiving earnest consideration. He is
good natured and horrible tobacco
beggar and the boys frequently use
him for a subject on which to perpe-
trate their jokes. The other day dur
ing the noon hour Mr.. Wortholder
stretched himself out on the grass to
sleep and the practical jokers then be-
the hose and after attaching it to the
body of the sleeping fireman, turned
on the water. What followed is des-
cribed by the eye-witnesses as being
very entertaining. The fireman was
awakened by the roar of the water,
but as the moisture had not penetrated
his clothes and he did not discover
the hose, he again stretched himself
out for another sleep. The second
sleep Was q short one however. for
soon the water rushed through his
clothes in great quaint ties, and the
victim, in his effort to get on his feet,
got the hose up his pants leg
and received the full pressure of the
water. The eye-witnesses then view
ed mirth provoking wrestle between
the fireman and the hose. It seemed
the more he tried to get away from
the water the more he got into it,
while the crowd rosrer it's approval.
MIR. Wortholder emerged from the
fight thoroughly saturated with tank
water, and he is now offering three
American dollars for the arrest and
conviction OF the cruel perpetrators Of
| this midsummer joke.

JOHNSON HIS SUCCESSOR.
The Regin1ental Band May Again Be Chosen Entirely From Mill City
 Musicians.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO. Jan. 23.-Next month Colonel s. s. Wright of the Sixth Regi- ment, N. G. C., will leave for the Klon- dike, reSigning his colonelcy. This means that Fresno, after being the reg mental headquarters since the resig- nation of Colonel J. J. Nunan of Stock ton last winter, will again lose the military post, which will go back 10 the Mill City. William Johnson of Stockton, who was elected lieutenant colonel few weeks ago in this city, will advance to the colonelcy. John son had been captain Of Company A at Stockton for a great many years, and, after the first proximo, he will issue orders from Stockton for the Sixth Regiment instead of the orders coming from this city. c. O. Lemon, first lieutenant of Company c of this city, will accompany Colonel Wright and he will endeavor to obtain fur tough.
 Colonel Wright and Lieutenant Lem on returned from San Francis, on the midnight train last night, having made arrangements for their northern trip. They have a dog team and are all equipped for their voyage Lieutenant Lemon will return to the metropolis next Wednesday to complete the ar engagements and will be joined there by Colonel Wright next month. Colonel Wright, upon his return last night, au- thoriZed the statement in regard to his Klondike trip and his resignation as colonel of the Sixth Regiment
 The Fresno musicians are the most anxious about the change which will be caused by Colonel Wright's resigna- tion. Before his promotion to the colonelcy the regimental band was sta- tloned at Stockton, but when he as sumed charge of the regiment he di- vided it, half the band being in Stock ton and the other half being organized from Fresno musicians here under Leader Cray of this city. It is feared that when Johnson becomes colonel he will again give Stockton the full band
 It is tacitly understood that Captain Cook of Bakersfield, who was John sons chief rival for the lieutenant colonelcy at the election here a few weeks ago. will receive the support of the commissioned officers for the lieu tenant-colonelcy. In fact he received a personal assurance from Major Grant of Stockton that he would be sup ported for advancement at the very first vacancy, and it was on account of that pledge that Cooks friends sup ported Johnson toward the close of the fight. Should Lemon be unable to pro- cure the desired furlough a vacancy will occur in Company C, which will result in the advancement of Second Lieutenant Jones of that company Jones is now acting as adjutant during the absence of Adjutant O. Scribner.
 The guardsmen here are very much grieved over the fact that Fresno will lose the headquarters of the regiment, particularly as Stockton has had the post during the many years of J. J. Nunan's colonelcy, and a strong effort will be made to retain half of the regi- mental band.

WORST STORM fN YEARS
 SWEEPS THROUGH THE EAST.
Railway Schedules DemoruLized Through tie Breaking Down Of Telegraph
 Wires

CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-The snowstorm of last night and this morning was the worst in this city for years. The great est damage was caused by the breaking down of telegraph and telephone wires. The police telephone system was badly crippled and there was much trouble with the city fire alarm system. The street-car service which last night was badly delayed and totally suspended on some of the lines was in better running order to-day. Snow blows and sweepers were kept going all night. All the incom> ing trains on all the roads were from one to four hours late. Station Master Clith- CTS of the Union depot said that Saturday night was one of the worst railroading nights he had ever known On account of the breaking down of the telegraph wires they were totally at sea as to the whereabouts of the trains

 Streets.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

ALGIERS, Jan. 23.-Anti-Jewish riots were renewed here to-day. The mob invaded the Jewish quarter and pillaged the shops in the Rue Baba- zoua, driving the Jewish merchants out into the streets. A squadron of the Chasseurs was ordered to the scene and charged the mob with drawn swords, but the mob reformed further on, cheering for the army.
 Revolvers and daggers were freely used. One man who was stabbed in the back and shot in the head, died on the spot, and many were seriously wounded, one, named Cayol, dying from his wounds at 4 o'clock this after noon. The crowd hearing of this be- came dangerously excited, shouting:
 They're murdering us. Death to the Jews!"
 The mob then resumed the pillaging. The fronts of six shops were destroyed. The police repeatedly charged the riot CTS, but were Stubbornly resisted and were powerless to restore order until the troops arrived. Several policemen were severely maltreated. Many ar rests for theft have been made. The Jewish authorities recommend their co-religionistS to remain in doors Both the men killed in the riots were Christians, and their companions have sworn to avenge them.
 Disturbances and the footing of Jew ish shops continued throughout the evening, despite the efforts of the troops to quell disorders
 At 10 o'clock tonight some Jewish flower stores were pillaged and their contents thrown into the streets. Zouaves then charged the crowd with fixed bayonets dispersed them, many persons being injured At the moment this dispatch is sent (11 o'clock) the rioters are reassembling on the quays and setting fire to the Jewish spirit stores. Troops are being hurried to the spot. Already there have been 15O arrests to-day. The maintenance of or der has been entrusted to the mili- tary.
 ALGIERS, Jan. 24.-By midnight the town had become more quiet and the fires on the Quays had been extin- guished. The streets are patrolled bv the troops.

HAWAIIAN VOTE
 WILL BE LATE Senate Will Not Consider the Treaty During This
 Week.
Final Action on the Measure Not Likely Until Late in
 February.
Special pigratch to The Call.


 WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The present outlook is unfavorable to the Senate's giving much attention to the Hawaiian treaty during this week. The agreement to vote on Thursday on the Teller reso- lution confirming the doctrine that United States bonds are payable in silver at the option of the Government will. in all probability, result in the SenateS giving the major portion of its time until that date to this measure, with the exception of that necessary to the consideration of appropriation bills. Senator Turpie has given notice of a speech on the Teller resolution this week, and 1t is expected speeches for 1t will be made by Senator Teller. Pettigrew, White and others, and that there will be some addresses in oppo- sition. Senator Nelson has offered an amendment declaring for the mainte- nance of the parity of the two metals but the silver men, considering this proposed modification hostile to their purposes, will not accept 1t. They say they will insist upon vote upon the resolution as it stands.
 The pension appropriation bill will be called up Monday, and as soon as 1t is disposed of the Senate will be asked to take up the legislative, executive and ju- dicial appropriation bill. Each of these will provoke some debate, but 1t Is not expected to be prolonged in either case. When the treaty next comes up Senator Teller will be recognized to speak in it's support, and he probably will be followed by Senator White in opposition. The vote on the treaty now appears at least three weeks distant.
 The House programme for this week in- cludes little of interest beyond the limits of the District of Columbia. Almost the entire week will be devoted to the District of Columbia appropriation bill. It is ex- pected the Indian appropriation bill. the consideration of which was begun yester- day, will be completed tomorrow The only item in the bill which is likely to cause much of a contest is that providing for the leasing of the gilsonite beds of the Uncompahgre reservation in Utah This provision was beaten in the last In- dian bill, and will be stubbornly contested now. The district bill will probably con sume the remainder of the week
