Washington, April 1.-THE

Santiago Morphy, the embezzling

ENC0UR4GIEG RAILROAD
NEWS.

The Express OF last Wednesday
has an account of a meeting OF
business. men In San Antonio to
consider the construction of a rail-
road to Brownsville. The article
is copied elsewhere In this even
iug's HERALD. 1t is most enc0urag-
ing to learn from it that ex-Govern-
or Hubbard gives the projectors of
thSs road assurance that capital for
the construction of,this road viii be
forthcoming, provided a bonus OF
$500, 600 be raised by the tive
cities and the intervening country
Sow. Hubbard is not the man to
give such assurance unless he
knows whereof he ssspeaks, and it
Is most encouraging to note that a
man Of his ability and prominence
Is interested IN the project. That
the stated sum can be raised there
can be no doubt. The only thing
necessary to raise it would be to.
pro lathe amount that mist be
subscribed by each county to be
traversed by the road, and the work
viii soon be done. There may be
some question as to whether San
Antonio Will raise her share, as
some of her wealthieSt business
men are inclined to be anything
liberal towards such enterprises.
Still the Alamo City should have
enough broad-gauged property
owners, who can feresee the future
benefits to accrue to their city from
the accomplishment of this impor-
tant project, to raise the required
sam.
Mr.. Billow of San Antonio, who |
has taken such a deep interest IN |
the matter, very correctly ex-l
plaiBed to the meeting the COM
parativcIy small cost that would be
involved in the construction of the
proposed road, owing to the abb
sence of great engineering Difficult {
ties on account Of the very level !
nature Of the country to be travers-
81. Several surveys of TINS road |
have been made, and all engineers
cenverssnt with the topography of |

that that there be less expense IN
bridging and grading than has
been involved in the construction |
Of almost any other road ST similar !
length. In fact, the only engineer
ing difficulty that lies in the way
ef the accomplishment of the pro-
ject is of financial nature If the
projectors can only engineer the
scheme so as to get 1t on a sound |
financial basis, the road Will soon

A Fnmoua RInnderer.

M. Calino, the popular French simpleton
who performs in the humorous literature
of French much the same function that the
traditional Paddy does in English ntera-
ture, has been made the subject of grave
study, in which his innocent stupidities
are carefully analysed says the Boston
Traveller. He is nothing more or less than
convenient personihcation of a type of
the harmless blunderer and complacent
lackwit found in all ages and countries In
France his sayings reflect, however, some
thing of the picturesqueness which is char
acteristic of the nation.
Calino's blunderings, it seems, began at
an early age. He had not craft enough to
tell lie that would hold water for a mo-
ment. One day at school he got into a fight
with a companion, and came home with a
cash on his forehead.
How did you get that cut?" asked his
father.
What cut. papa?"
why, that great cash on your forehead. I"
81 bit myself there, papa
Bit yourselfl Why, you couldn't bite
yourself on your forehead"
81 got up on chair to do 1t, papa"
Later in life Calino delivered himself of
the following bit of wisdom:
LAS for me, / don't care so much for the
sun as do for the moon. You see the sun
only comes after it gets daylight, when we
could see just as well without 1t, but the
moons some use-it shines at night"
Early one morning, when Cafino was out
with his gun, he saw a robin in the garden
of his friend Camille. He aimed at it, but
it dropped below the top of the wall Then
Calino went into the house, crept up stairs
softly, stole into Candles bedroom with
out waking Camille who was in bed point-
ed his gun out of the window at the robin
and fired-bangi
Camille leaped out of bed in wild confu-
sion and alarm.
MISUNDERSTANDING the matter?"
"Oh, did 1 wake you up?'l said CaGno. 81
pulled the trigger just as softly as
could"

MIR. CROKER,s FEAST.

Mr.. Richard Croker, the Tammany lead
er, Is anxious that the Democratic Club
of New York, of which he is president.
shall give dinner which shah excel any
thing In the way of feast that has ever
been given in this country. This seems TO
be the period of extravaganza in the mat
ter of elaborate public dinners, and II is
not surprising that Mr.. Croker should
have an ambition in that direction. There
have been several dinners recently which
nave been so costly as to excite general
comment Among them was the great
feast at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel last
January. at which one thousand covers
the principal speaker. Hundreds of ladies
were present in evening costume. Only
the other day 1t was proposed that a din
ner should be given Admiral Dewey. on
his return from Manila, that should cost
500 a plate.
Mr. Croker proposes that the dinner bv
the Democratic Club shall be given at the
Metropolitan Opera House, and that
covers shall be laid for fifteen hundred
persons. No efforts would be spared. of
course, TO make it a more elaborate affair
than was that at the Waldorf-Astoria.
The opera boxes would OFFER a better op-
portunity for a display of rich costumes
by the ladies than was afforded by the
limited accommodations of the Waldorf
Astoria Hotel. No doubt all of the boxes
would be filed by the fair sex. Ii would
be a difficult matter to serve din
ner in the great opera house. but that
could be managed. Anything can be done
where there is an abundance of money.
and there would be no lack of money for
Mr.. Cookers feast. MIR. Croker is anxious
that the Democratic Club of New York
shall be the headquarters of the national
Democracy. great and costly feast.
however. might do Mr.. Croker more harm
as a political leader than good. The tax
ridden people of the city might wonder
where ali the money came from for such
a display of extravaganza. Mr.. Croker's
proposed great feast. however. is just now
one OF the topics of conversation In Greater
New York.

Tho society Meets.

Mrs. Rice was member of the mission
airy society Of a fashionable South Side
church, says the Chicago Record. The
society suspended its meetings during the
summer months, but before adjournment
it adopted a list of meeting places for the
next year, and Mrs. Rice's house was Sc
lected as the first place Of meeting in the
fall
During the summer when nearly every
body was out of the city, Mr.. Rice was or
dered by his physician to stop business
for time and go to a mountain climate
Accordingly, he rented his house, com
pletely furnished, to the Sanford family
and lost no time in seeking a higher alti-
tude.

and was answered by Mrs. Sanford, who

and apron while attending to her house

Mrs. Petley brushed by her and swept into
the parlor with the cheering remark, All
I'm early, I see; but the ladies will soon
be here.
Mrs. Sanford was surprised, but her
sense of humor induced her to see what
would follow. During the next half hour
the bell rang many times, and one lady
Promptly at $3.50 o'clock the President rap
ped for order and called on the secretary
to read the minutes of the last meeting
Then followed all the business of the So
ciety including the paper on Foo Chow
the report of the Committee on Mission
airy Box and the report of the Sick Visit
ing Committee.
Toward the close Of the session some
one wanted to sign a paper, and beck
oned to Mrs. Sanford, who was delightedly
sitting in an obscure corner of the back
parlor. Tell Mrs. Rice that Mrs Sprin-
ger would like a pen and ink, please"
Mrs. Sanford promptly produced the pen
and ink, and was duly thanked and re-
tired. Adjournment was next in order
and after that had been accomplished in
due form the ladies settled back TO wait
refreshments. There were a few moments
Of silence, then a busy hum of general con-
versation for a few more minutes, then
the President said to Mrs. Springer
Have you seen Mrs. Rice?'
Il don't believe have. Have you, Mrs
Dodson?"
why, no; but I suppose she's busy

The Blacksmith and the King.

Some time ago. while holding court in
the royal palace, overlooking the Danube,
Francis Joseph received a Hungarian
blacksmith, who desired to thank his King
for the decoration conferred on him in
recognition of his having invented an ag-
ricultural machine, says the Argonaut.
During the audience the blacksmith drew
from his pocket two photographs repre-
senting the King and Queen and said.
handing them to his majesty: May ask
your majesty, and also the Queen, for YOUR
signatures?" And why?" demanded the
King, smilingly. "Well, when l die the
cross of merit which your majesty has
given me will have to be returned. and
my children will at least have your majes-
ties portraits and sigma lures in remem>
brance of this audience" 1.-THE Queen is
absent from Hungary" said the King.

the present moment. for have neither

handing it to the monarch The King
thereupon attached his signature to the
photograph, and dismissed the smith with
a smile The smith did not retire, how
ever, but stood his ground rs there any,
thing else 1 can do for you?" asked Fran
els Joseph. Yes, you majesty, am wait
ing for my pencil" The King had me-
chanically pocketed It, and he returned n
with a hearty laugh.

SPENDING OUR SURPLUS WEALTH.

A good deal of the money which Europe
owes us every year for bread and meat IS
spent there by Americans. Those who have
not studied the subject have no idea of the
amount of money which Americans spend
abroad. And the whole amount is not spent
by rich people. A very large part of it is
spent by comparatively poor people.
1t Is estimated that Americans who left
the port of New York last year for visit
to Europe spent fully $75,oOOOOO in pass
age money and incidental expenses. OF
this amount it Is thought that $20OO0,000
was spent by people who made the trip
as Storage passengers.
1t has not been many years since very
few people went TO Europe from this coun-
try in the steerage. In 1870 the North Ger
man Lloyd line carried only 5,116 steerage
passengers to Europe. Last year that
line carried 27.192. All the COM
panies combined carried to Europe last
year 10000 steerage passengers. About all
of these people went to visit friends in the
old country.
These figures show that our working
PSOPiS arc III idiriy prosperous CohuitiOu'
1t also shows that the cost of steamship
travel is very small in comparison with
what 1t used to be- The comforts provided
must also be very good or else so many
people would not make so long a trip for
the sake of seeing old friends and relatives
Millionaires therefore are not the only ones
who spend our surplus wealth in trips TO
foreign shores. The day laborer and the
servant girl help TO spend it.

WE MUST work ToGETnuR.

We publish this morning a communica-
ton from a gentleman residing at Biz
mingham, Ala. who says that he has been
approached by citizen of Savannah rela-
tive to the matter of establishing man.
ufactories in this city The communion
ton contains some good advice for our
citizens.
1t is the same advice, however. that has
often been offered through the columns of
the Morning News. In effect, it is that
in order to build up our city. our people
must get together and take the lead IN
the up-bulding. We have no doubt that
there are many kinds of manufacturing
which would pay here. We are not able,
however. to point them out, because we
have not sufficient acquaintance with man
ufacturing to do so. The writer of the
communication to which we refer appears
TO know what kinds of factories would pay
here. and his knowledge no doubt would
be valuable in aiding in the investment of
capital here in industries.
The chief thing, however is for our peo-
pie to understand that outsiders are not
likely to put their money here in enter
prises unless there is a disposition also
to invest home capital When our own
citizens manifest an interest in building
up their city IL is probable that they will
hnd but little difficulty in getting outside
help.
IL is true that several enterprises whieh
have been undertaken here have been fan
