RAILROAD
OUR
MARVELLOUS R
 GROWTH.

The latest issue of the Chicago Rail- way Age gives the statistics of railroad construction in the United States in 1898, with the prospects for 1899. It is a gratifying exhibit The actual amount of track laid in 1898 was 3,082 miles As the railroad construction of the preceding four years did not exceed 1900 miles, this shows a remarkable increase, especially as in some parts of the country our railroad system is now complete. Not a single mile of new track was laid last year in New Hamp- shire, Rhode Island. Massachusetts or Kansas, while Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey and Vermont report only two mileS each of additional track, with seven miles in Wyoming, eight in Tennessee and less than one mile in Nebraska. According to the estimate of the Railway Age, not less than 5000 miles of new railroad will be built dur ing the current year, nearly the whole amount representing extensions of ex- isting lines, with increased facilities for business and a resultant increase in national prosperity.-New York Worlc

NEW FIELD FOR ADVENTURE.

In the cable announcement of the discovery Of a new world in the Ant artic circle by the Belgian exploring expedition which left L'.w5rp n July. 1897, there is 3 fine stimulus to the lm- aginat.on of lovers of the adventurous and the unknown. This achievement definitely claimed by the scientists of the pal-y, will unquesLona5ly have the effect of turning all eyes from the north to the south pole in expectation of further fascinating developments There seems to be much promise of material resut,s along this line Open water to the far south was found. and it was the intention of the Belgian party, new on the way home for re- fitting to return nex. year and explore tEts mysterious sea. Herein lies the charm that will accompany these eff forts for some years. A genuine terra incognita is accessible to a jaded world, the known quarters Of which have now been visited and described to the point of monotony. Just in the nick of time the Antarctic circle opens its vague vista to daring eyes. Land hot there's something new under the sun yet!-St Louis Republic

SECRETARY OF WAR ALGER.
Denies Reports That He is About
to RESIGN From Cabinet.

WASHINGTON, July u. - Secretary
Alger to-day, in a report to the Asso-
ciated Press, made a personal state
ment concerning the reports that he
is about to resign from the Cabinet.
When asked as to the truth of the
rumors, the Secretary said:
There is nothing in these reports
but air." replied the Secretary. II
shall not retire this year. certainly,
and cannot say as to the future. My
private business and the state of my
health will govern my future course.
These constant assaults and re-
peated baseless reports are, of course,
very annoying to me and extremely
distressing to my family, but 1 have
never retired under fire yet and do
not propose to do so now. Nothing
that 1 have ever heard of and known
of has been SO cruel as the attacks
upon me. If my critics can point to
one thing in my official career that I
have done that I ought not to have
done, or that 1 have not done that I
should have done, I shall be very glad
to surrender my present official du-
ties"
Secretary and Mrs. Alger will leave
Washington next Friday to spend Sat
urday and Sunday at Long Branch
with Vice President Hobart The Sec
retary was a guest of the Vice Presi-
dent last summer for a day or two,
and was SO we'll pleased with his en-
tertainment by the Vice President
who is his intimate friend, that he will
repeat the trip.

ST. LOUIS FAIR ASSOCIATION.
Declared by Supreme Court to be
Conducting Unlawful Business.

JEFFERSON CITY (Mo), July L.
The ST. Louis Fair Association is de-
clared to be conducting an unlawful
business, in an opinion filed in Divls-
ion No. / of the Supreme Court by
Judge Valiant to-day, in the case OF
the St. Louis Fair Association VS.. +.
j. Carmody of ST. Louis. The court
refused to enforce a contract made
by the association with Carmody on
this ground.
The suit was for a balance due the
association from Carmody for the
privilege Of selling refreshments on
it's race tracks in ST. Louis. The lower
court gave judgment for the plaintiff,
which is reversed in this opinion. The
case is remanded for new trial, the
issue to be determined whether the
association got more revenue from
this privilege because it kept gambling
books and permitted gambling on its
tracks. The court intimates that II
the trial court finds that fact to be
true, then the contract cannot be en-
forced, and judgment must be rem
dered for the defendant. All the
Judges of this division concur in the
opinion.

of familiar mysteries, this would not
be worth noticing. Why should the
re-historic newspapers have insulted
the horse? Did the cavemen lose their
| money on horse races. and then write
abusive letters to the newspapers,
pointing out the untrustworthy charac-
ter of the horse? 1t is very doubtful if
| they did anything of the sort, chiefly
for the reason that newspapers did not
exist in prehistoric times. Newspapers
| appeared in Europe about the time of
the first visitation of the Asiatic
plague, and unlike the latter pestilence
never left us.
To come back to the horse and his
fear of newspapers. It may be said
that the newspaper terrifies him be-
cause it moves in the wind, and he
thinks it is alive. But the leaves of
trees move in the wind, and the hui
man boy moves with or without wind
under the very hoofs of the horse, yet
the horse is not afraid of these things.
Clearly, he is not afraid of a stray
newspaper simply because it may be
blown across his path. Moreover he is
as much afraid of newspaper that
does not move as he is of one which is
in motion. 1t has been suggested that
the horse mistakes a newspaper for a
deadly snake, and therefore tries to get
out of it's way. That this is not true
is shown not only by the fact that the
horse SHES at Republican as readily
as at a Socialist sheet, but also by the
fact that horses do not shy at live
snakes, whether they are deadly or
innocuous.
The true explanation of the horses
fear of a newspaper is that in the code
of equine etiquette it is considered good
form to appear to be afraid of news
papers. All animals have their ideas
as to what is good form, and cling
tenaciously to them. The dog does not
bark at very young children, because
it is contrary to canine etiquette to do
so. The cat, who is an infiexible stick
Ter for good form. plays with half
dead mouse merely because playing
with half dead mice is considered
among all cats of good breeding to be
the correct thing to do.
The horse, knowing that, if he did
not pretend to be frightened nearly out
of his life by a newspaper, he would
be regarded by all other horses as an.
ignorant and ill-bred beast, SHES
whenever newspaper fiutters into his
path.-W. L. Alden in Pearson's Maga-
zine.

STEAMSHIP PARIS.
No Longer Any Anxiety as to the
Safety Of the Vessel.


FALMOUTH (Eng.), July 12.-Super-
intendent Aisbett, who has been in
charge of the work of salving the
Paris, is greatly elated at her re-
floating. He says it was accom-
plished with remarkable ease. The
wind happened to make the tide foot
higher than expected and Immediately
after it was perceived that the steamer
was aflOat, steam winch connected
with the hawser fast to an anchor
astern was set in motion, and the
Paris was speedily clear of the rocks.
During the night her pumps materially
reduced the amount OF water IN her
holds, her fires will be lighted to-day
and the Paris herself will be able to
cope with the pumping work, though
there are still large holes in her bot
tom to be patched up. The worst OF
these is four feet square. The Super
intendent no longer has the slightest
anxiety as to the success of the opera
tions to provide for the safety of the
ship.
LONDON, July 1.-THE Salvage As
sociation says no specific sum has been
agreed upon for salvage Of the American
Line steamer Paris, but that the wreck
ing companies will receive stipulated
percentage Of the value of the steamer
when placed in dry-dock, the under
writer's. of course, paying the bill.
The Salvage Association took the
contract on the basis of the mo cure
no pay" principle. Hundreds of tons Of
rock have been removed by dynamite
until the channel made beneath the
steamer was practically the greater
part of the length of the ship.
AS the Falmouth dry-dock cannot ac-
commodate the Paris, it has been de-
cided to run her on an unexposed sand
beach in that harbor where temporary
repairs will be made before going to
Southampton. Her removal will be
made at high tide tomorrow morning.
FALMOUTH. July 12.-Owing to the
more favorable weather and the fact
that such repairs as were lent could
be rapidly effected, the salvors
changed their plans suddenly and
started towing, with five tugs sup
ported by three salvage boats, for Fall
mouth. Before midnight the worst
part of the journey had been accom-
plished, and shortly after midnight the
Paris safely entered Falmouth harbor.
Preparations are being made to beach
her in the tide harbor.

FERRYBOAT ACCIDENT.
How a Chinese Vegetable Grower
Lost His Life.

Coroner McMullen yesterday went
down the river to a point about eight
miles below Walnut Grove to inquire
into the matter of the death of a
Chinaman who was drowned there on
Tuesday.
The Coroner learned that the drown
ing was entirely accidental. The China
man started to drive onto the ferry
boat with wagon load Of potatoes.
The boat had not been securely fast
ened, and when the team was partly
aboard it left the bank, precipitating
horses, driver and wagon into the river.
The driver and horses were drowned.
The Chinaman was buried yesterday.
