MIR. Cockran's Little Paradox.

The Hon. BoURKE COCHRAN has a gift for
paradox Here Is a good one which he ex-
hibted TO the South Brooklyn Democrats:
BRYAN s,nnds for Peace and Production
BRYAN stands for a dishonorable peace
with AaUISAIDo's pack Of rebels. He also
stands for the permanent guarantee by the
United States of the independence Of the
Philippines. policy which would be sure
to involve this country in wars with foreign
Powers and to make heap OF trouble and
more miltarism.
BRYAN stands for the production Of half
dollar dollars, and consequently for the
injury of all productive enterprise and oc-
cupation. He has promised to drive out all
Trusts il he il elected that ia. TO destroy
the great corporations that are character
istic of modern business II he could carry
ont his threat he would throw millions Of
men out of work and bring about tremen-
dous financial smash. He stands for the
production of bankruptcy.
He stands for the income tax. which would
be an additional burden upon product ton
He stands likewise for the unhampered
production OF riot.
Mr.. CoCKRAN's encomiums OF Mr.. BRYAN
are rich in that surprise which IL one OF the

Off.

1Few Ycrk, February s.-The steamship
q ats City Of the Ocean Steamship CON-
pany, went on the outer bar three miles
east of Moriches life saving station,
Long Island, about 0 O'Clock tonight.
There was n dense fog at the time, and 1t
is said the steamer was driven hard into
the sand which forms the outer shoal.
At present she 10 lying easy In oompa-
ratively smooth ssA.
The Gate City had on board 40 passen-
gers, three of whom were women. when
she went aground, her whistle signalled
to the life saving station and they at
onoe launched o surf boat. They found
the vessel In no great danger, but the
captain of the life savers volunteered to
take off the passe myers. The women de-
oided to 40 ashore and they were taken to
the beach and given possession Of the
station house.
The surf boat Immediately put out
again to the stranded steamer with the
intention Of bringing any Of the male
ashors who desired to bs tax
sn Of the steamer.
The Gate City Is lying In the sand In
a sea that Is steadily rising. but she will
be In dangerous position in case OF
storm. The surf boats will probably lie
alongside the steamer during the remain
der Of the night unless she Is loated.
The Gate City has 5000 bales of cotton

THE FITCHBURG LEASE.
Injunction Against the State Oniciai'
Denied.

Boston, February s.-Judge Knowlton
In the Supreme court this afternoon, re-
fused to restrain Gov. Crane and other
state officials, including the state dirsc-
tors Of the Fitohburg railroad from vot-
ing In favor of the LEASE of the Fitch bur z
20 the Boston and Maine railroad oompa-
nv, as prayed for In the bill IN equity
brought by James II. Hilton of Cam
bridge, a Fitohburs stookholder.
"1he case came up In the Supreme
court carly this morning. Counsel for
the plaintiff contsnded that the statue of
1888 prohibits the Lease or sale Of the
Fitohburg to any competing or parallel
line, and that IL Is the duty Of the ststs
directors to vote against the lease; also
that it is an Arrangements which is not In
the interests Of the holders Of the pre-
fsrrsd stock.
The attorney general strongly urged
that the real party defendant Is the
Common wealth, (which cannot bs cited
into court In this way.
Judge KnoWlton In announcing his de-
cision, said In connection with the claim,
that the approval Of the lease BY the state
officials would be In violation of the
existing stAtnte, that all that Is proposed
TO be done is to make q provisional ar
rangement subject to the consideration
and control of the Legislature.

Biddsford, February s--The adverse
decision Of the railroad commissioners on
the petition of the Biddeford, kennebunk
and Wells Electric company, given out at
Augusta, will not stop the agitation Tor
the new road. An appeal is likely to be
taken from the decision. Tbs Atlantic
Shore Line comp psny, which is granted a
charter, Ia understood to be backed by
the Goodells of Sanford. Another an
nouncement made by the commissioners,
which oreatsd some surprise, was to the
effect that the charter of the 6aco River
Valley railroad expired last July and Is
now null and void. The decision was
passed under the law Of Maine, which
says that ~ an electric railroad In the
state is not built within two years from
the time it is chartered, said charter be-
comes void. II. A. Hobart OF Boston was
recently quoted as saying that the latter
road, which was planned to run from
Saoo to Bonnsy Eagle. would be built the

Did you ever stop to think that
when the whole system is weak the
eyes are also weskY That the mus
cles of the eyes are just as susceptible
to fatigue as any other muscles of
the bodyf This is true in every casa.
When you have q severe aickness you
have but little strength at first. You
walk few steps ami then sit down
and rest. Every muscle Is weakened.
Still how natural 1t is to try and
read by the hour. expecting the eyes
to work just as hard as when you
are strong and we'll. Almost every
day someone says ~ always had
good eye until 1 had the typhoid
fever, or measles or diphthsria." 1t
Is the practice of forcing the eyes to
do more than they can stand while
recovering from sickness, that inj ures
them permanently. If glasses would
be worn a. that time for several
months they could be laid aside and
the eyes would bs once more In per-
feet strength.
