GERMAN MILWAUKEE.
Ignorance of German Language as Bad
as Ignorance of English.
Ito be Continued.)

as Ignorance of English.
The theater, art and science have
found home in the German city of
America, says the Chautauquan. One
Gerrcan and three English theaters
offer to the public an abundance of
varied pleasures, and all eminent in
intellect and art are accustomed to stop
in Milwaukee on their American
travels. A public library, as we'll as
picture gallery and a museum, offer
gratuitous instruction to every one.
In the fall there is an annual indus
trial and agricultural exhibition which
with each year receives a greater
abundance Of contributions. Dozens of
German glee clubs and athletic asso-
Citations serve for social intercourse.
AS might be expected, the English
language is used in the conduct of busi-
ness, although at least from so to 60,
If not a greater, per cent of the peo-
pie have command of the German Ian
guage, which is taught in the public
schools. In almost every business, in
nearly all the commercial houses,
which are for the most part conducted
by Germans, the German language is
used along with the English, and so
ignorance of German is regarded as
great fault as ignorance of English,
II not a greater one. Recently an at
tempt was made to remove the Ger
man language from the curriculum of
the public schools, but the inquiry in
stituted for this purpose produced a
result very vexatious to the investi-
gators. The overwhelming majority
of the non-German parents decided in
favor of having their children taught
the German language. Thus Milwau-
kee, in this case also, has made good
her reputation as the German city Of
America.

Baltimore, July 1.-The receivership
Of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
terminated at IL o'clock last night and
the property was turned over to the
stockholders without celebration or
formal ceremony. John X. Cowen
and Oscar G. Murray were appointed
receivers Of the company on February
2Sth, 1895, by the United States court
for the District Of Maryland. Being
familiar with the needs OF the property
the receivers decided that the only
wise course to pursue was to practi-
cally rebuild and re-eQuip the railroad.
The physical condition was bad, It's
equipment antiquated and inadequate
to handle business and its insufhciency
was such as to seriously iniuJs the
revenues. The receivers plans were
discussed by the security holders and
as large majority agreed to the pro-
vision Of enough funds to place the
road in condition to handle It's traf-
fic. they obtained permission Of the
court to issue certificates for the pur-
chase, by means OF equipment trusts
and receivers certificates, of new cars
and locomotives and to improve the
physical condition Of the property.
The plan also provided for the payment

the entire floating debt OF the COM
pany, represented by promissory notes
and negotiable obligations and OF all
car trust obligations, enabling the COM
pany to begin the fscal year Of 1885,
1900 with all its obligations paid. For
the reason that reorganization was
possible without foreclosure, the orig
inal charter of the company remains In
force, and the next annual meeting OF
the stockholders will be the 73d. The

THE HEAVIEST B. 8 o. TRAIN.

When the receivers of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad began the now famous
series of improvements Of the physi-
cal condition Of the e..tire system,
their object was to increase both the
train load and the number of revenue
tons per mile and at the same time
reduce the cost of transportation.
Much has been done, and by the low
ering OF grades, elimination Of curves,
laying OF new steel rails and the pur-
chase of heavy motive power they have
very materially added to the number Of
cars per train. But it was not until
the 18th OF March last that a demon
stration was made of what might be
expected Of the new Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad. Enough new 50-ton capac-
ity steel cars had been delivered to
give the operating department chance
to experiment. Fifty steel ears, each
Weighing $4,000 pounds, were loaded
with an average Of $4,000 pounds Of
coal. To them was coupled a new
22x2S Inch consolidation locomotive
weighing 16S,700 pounds and having
"a inch driving wheels. The start was
made from Cumberland, Md, and the

ersl Superintendent Fitzgerald says
the train was pulled with comparative
ease and that the class Of engines used
will be able to handle so cars Of 80
tons capacity each on that division
without trouble. Hitherto the, train
load on that division has been S25 units
Of 6h tons each or about 1900 tons. a
40 per cent increase over that Of i've
years ago. The so car train was COM
puted as containing 497 units, or 6,45S,-

coal in the train was 4,75S. 100 pounds.

moist water-colors, with Chinese white

the lace and pin it down to a drawing

lace. See that the colors are thorough
ly absorbed into the lace, and remem-
Der the more broken and diversified

The traveller who visits Colorado for the
first time is surprised ana impressed with
the opportunities the state affords in agri-
cultural pursuits. The mineral wealth Of
the state, with its many famous mines,
seems to have become fixed in the minds of
strangers, crowding out all know'ed of
her wonderfully fertile soil Little thought
is ever given to the L, coo miles of irriga-
CATION canals that have been constructed,
and the q 100000 acres of land which have
thus far been made productive. Yet, out
out Of 81 exhibits from Colorado at the
worlds fair. eighty-one special premiums
were awarded, covering all kinds Of fruit
and produce. The wheat exhibit attracted
wide attention, and twenty-five awards
were given it alone, the largest number
received by any one state in the Union.
The fruit industry has reached "a, 600, 900 a
year and Is yet in its infancy. Sugar beet
culture is profitable industry. The min
oral wealth Of the state, which leads all
other states in the Union in the output of
gold and silver does not compare with her
agricultural wealth A handsome and pro-
iusely illustrated pamphlet entitled THE

to the lucky man she would choose for her spouse. The future Mrs. Will
 liam K. Vanderbilt has black eyes and
 figure. Although she is under the me-
 dium height, she weighs 13O pounds.
 Her disposition is as sunny as the skies of her own California. Few of the wealthy young women in New York are simpler in their tastes than the Cali fornia heiress. Of course she does not know how many are her gowns or what they cost, but none of them are made for pure display. Miss Fair is an eX- pert need lewoman, and some of her fancy work shows positive talent. Her efforts in this line are all directed to- ward charity. She is both sympathetic and generous, and most devout Roman Catholic. This mixed marriage" will make an interesting problem to solve. The proverbial opposition of the church to marriages between it's children and Protestants will present an obstacle. but not an insurmountable one. Dis pensations have been granted before. and there is TO obvious reason why dispensation should not be granted

 Young Vanderbilt is not very good looking, but he inherits much of the commercial genius and thrift of his grandfather and of the old ''commo- dore," who began the upbuilding of the prodigious rTaterial wealth his numer- ous descendants now enjoy and con serve. He is the first of the Vanderbilts to attend Harvard, and it is said that his progress in the special studies he is pursuing in the scientific school of the big university is rapid. He is espe- eially devoted to engineering and evinces an ambition to become pro ficient in geology. He is 21 years old, and will graduate in two years.
