crash on the icebergs of cold indiffer-
ence, and some take fire of evil pas
sions, and some lose their bearings and
run into the Goodwin sands, and some
are never heard Of Surely on such n
treacherous sea as that one voyage is
enough.
Besides all this, do you know. if you
could have your wish and live life over
again, it would put you SO much fur
Their from reunion with your friends in
Heaven? If you are in the noon of life,
or the evening Of life, you are not very
far from the golden gate at which you
are to meet your transported and en-
paradised loved ones You arc now,
let us say, 20 years, or ten years,
or one year on from celestial conjunc-
ton. Now, suppose you went back in
your earthly life 30 years, or 40 years.
or 50 years, what an awful post
ponemeut of the time of reunion!
It would be - though you were
going to San Francisco to = great
banquet, and you got to Oak
land, four or i've miles this side of it,
and then came back to Baltimore to
get . better start; rs though you were
going to England to be crowned, and
having come in sight Of the mountains
Of Wales, you put back TO Sandy Hook
in order to make . better voyage.
Would you like for many years to adj

MODERN FORTS.
Vastly Different from the Old Style
of FOrtification--Subte
mean StronEhOIds.

The modern type of Notifications
contrasts strikingly with the massive
old stone works, excellent specimens
of which are Fort Monroe and Fort
Wadsworth, says Golfers Weekly. To
the eye of novice Fort Monroe, the
largest of it's type in the country, is
seemingly impregnable; up to the
close of the civil war it could be de-
Tended against feet or army of any
size, but as small gun as the eight
inch rifle could lay it in ruins in a very
short time. The old method of forti-
flying has been replaced by the en-
placement system of earth. stone and
concrete. except ut points where the
topography of the coast line permits
the use of natural formations.
This is the case at Pei. md. Me-.
where the rocky cliff has been utilized,
the batteries being at an elevation OF
~ or co feet above tide water. Here.
however. large amount of concrete
d stone work has been used to reen-
Gree the walls of rock. The walls OF

WORLDS OLDEST ENGINE.
1t Was Constructed in England in
17yT and Has Been in Service
Uhtil RecentIy.

The oldest, engine in the world is in
the possession Of the Birmingham
canal navigations, this engine having
EHen constructed by Boulton G. Watt
n the year l777. says London Engi-
"ering. The order is entered in the
firm books in that year as a single
Igi!ng beam engine. with chains at
arh end OF n wood beam. and having
he steam cylinder 80 inches in diam
;cr. with stroke of eight feet. and
rected at the canal company's pump
,ag station at Rolfe street. Smeth-
wick, During the present year (180S)
his remarkable old engine. which has
Teen regularly al work from the time
Of its erection to the current year, a
period Of. say. 100 years, was removed
10 the canal company's station at
ockcr Hill, Upton. there to be re-
erected and preserved as relic of
what can be done by good manage
ment when dealing with. machinery of
undouhtcd quality. 1t is worthy Of
note that the birmingham canal navi-
cations favored Boulton & Watt in 1777
with the order for this engine, and in
1898, or 100 years aftefward, the com
pany has intrusted the same firm,
James Watt. d Co., Soho, Sine thwiCk
with the manufacture Of two Of heir

gines, to be erected at the Walsall
pumping station, having 24O horse

in the Opera House there, and the
emissaries of the S. P. Co. tried to
side-track the issue by ignoring the
silver question and piling on top of
it a whole lot of railroad resolu-
lions. They were not successful,
however, but they made it such up
hill work that it was some time be-
fore the Carson League got into
working order. These are facts,
and will not be contradicted by
any person who knows the truth of
the matter and is inclined to be
fair in the premises.

THE boom of the great guns on
the warships has not yet been
heard in Cuba, but the boom of the
gold bugs bugle ring out as usual.
Wednesday the House passed res
olution that purported to be for the
independence of Cuba by vote of
322 to 10. Thursday the Senate
labored all day on the House reso-
luton, but did nothing. 1t is now
said that the resolution amounts to
nothing, and as fifteen Democrats
in the House voted against it, that
is probably the case. The dis
patches also state that if the reso-
luton passes the Senate Mckinley
will veto it. Take your choice.

If CONGRESS and Mckinley fail
to demand and enforce satisfaction
from Spain for the lives lost on the
Maine, about the only reason a
man will have for voting the Re-
publican ticket again will be that
that party will have such a cinch
on the voters by 1900 that it will
order those who vote against the
ticket to be hung.

STILL pKEvARlcArlNe.

Party was the conception of the S.
P. Co. The manner in which il
goes about this is as peculiar as it
is ridiculous. The News admits
that the party was started in Day
ton, probably much as the TIMES
stated last Saturday, but intimates
that, Mr.. Rae was employed by the
S. P. Co. to launch the move. This
intimation is utterly without
ground. Mr.. Rae, at that time,
was Superintendent of the Dredge
Co., at this place. He had then
lived here number of years, and
had become an enthusiastic silver
man. He was paying the S. P. Co.
a good many hundreds of dollars
for freight from the East and San
Francisco, and was anything but
pleased at the prices he had to pay,
and at the time did not have a
speaking-acquantance with G. c..
Wallace, and he utterly denies that
there was any motive for his ac-
tions except to make some party
recognize our main industry-silver
mining-as the one that was of
paramount Importance. AS to the
place of the party's birth, there
was then no contradiction as to it
having been in Dayton. Winnie
mucca was the second town in the
State to organize Silver clubs, Can
delaria came third, and Eureka
was fourth. Up to that time the
TIMES had always been Republi-
can paper, but as far back as 1888,
when Harrison failed to give us
free coinage, after being elected on
silver platform, we argued that
the Republicans were prevaricators
of the first water, and that the
proper thing for Nevadans to do
was to never again vote for Presi-
dent, no matter what party he be-
longed to, who would not openly de-
clare that he would sign a free coin
age measure. This policy was dis
cussed in Dayton long before Mr..
Rae organized silver league, but
Republicans were inclined to give
Harrison a chance. They believed
he would do as the Republican
party had so frequently promised,
give us free coinage, but their fond
hopes were blasted. In 1892 came
the organization of the silver clubs.
Then it was that Mr.. Bartine was
betrayed by his Republican friends.
Senator Stewart was a candidate
for reelection to the u. S. Senate.
and Mr.. Bartine was a candidate
for Congress. Mr. Newlands had
political aspirations but did not
know exactly what he wanted. He
was an earnest silver man, as were
Stewart and Bartine. The Repub-
licans, however, held Bartine in
line, and would not allow of his
joining a silver league, and prom
ised to help him to defeat Stewart
if he would run for the Senate and
leave the Congressional place for
Newlands. He did this, and the
Republicans gave him the double
cross and helped elect Stewart and
Newlands. Newlands was pre-
vailed upon to join the silver forces
and this gave him walkover,
while Stewart was elected by the
unanimous vote of the Legislature.
So far as the party being con-
ceived by the s. P. Co. is concerned,
it is utterly false, and everybody
with common sense and mind to
be fair will SO believe. After the
Dayton Silver League was formed
