A Chance for the Register Liar TO
Earn Twenty-Five Dollars.
One night last week. before the Nc
Lure had opened, an Intelllgencer re-
porter sought Senator Scott. who has
apartments on the fifth floor. Securing
an entrance after some difficulty. the
scribe was plloted through dark halls
and up many stalrways, with Night
Waterman Bowen and his lantern in
attendance. The senator was seen, Just
before he retired. and the result was
the news story appearing in the Intelll-
gencer, telling Of the EFFORT to resurrect
the old Hobbs glass house, on the South
Side. The Register Of the same morn
ing also had similar story.
The day following, remarkable to re-
late, the Register asserted that It had
published the story exclusively, and
that although the Intelllgencer claimed
to have had an interview with Mr..
Scott,.it had not. The IntellIgencer
promptly gave the lie to the Register
man, and made the very pertinent In
quIry whether the latter wasn't affllct-
ed with paresls.
Again, yesterday morning. the Regis
ter denies that the Intelllgencer inter
Viewed Mr.. Scott. A more striking ex-
ample of cussedness would be difficult
to produce. Here Is man who assumes
TO know what other people do better
than they know It. What is the public
to think of such pIgheadedness In a
journal that claims to be correct pur-
VeyOr OF news?
Suffice to say, the IhteIligencer re-
porter who interviewed Mr., Scott will
present the Register man with $25 In
the coin Of the realm II the latter will
substnntiate his wilful and premedi-
tated lIe-but he won't.

THE RAILROADS.

Some of the friends of j. B. Braden.
superintendent of motive power of the
Wheeling & Lake Erie. are telling of
a compliment that was paid him a few
days ago, says the Cleveland Leader.
But recently the Wheeling decided that
it would secure number of new loco
motives and placed an order for ten of
the consolidation engines with the
Pittsburgh Locomotive Works. 1t fell
to the lot of Mr.. Braden, as the head of
the motive power department, to make
the plans for these engines, which he
did, and submitted them to the Pitts
burgh works. 1t is said by his friends
now that he has received from the
Pittsburgh people a most flattering let
ter Of commentator for his skill at
preparing plans It is even said that
the letter was an assurance that the
Pittsburgh Locomotive Works had been
50 taken with his plans that 1t has
been decided to make them the model
after which engines Of that type shall
be built In that shop hereafter.
