Thirty years ago the Morning News Gel
ebrated in big type the fact that the trip
from New York to Savannah could be
made in nlnetyefour hours. To-day the
trip is made in twenty-four hours and it
has been made in less time than that II
is not improbable that thirty years hence
a person will be able to eat breakfast in
Savannah and supper in New York. The
tendency in transportation is towards
shortened routes and faster time Railway
lines are Instantly being stra lghtened, and
heavier rails and faster locomotives are
being employed. Within three decades it
is altogether likely that the railroads will
have been consolidated into a few great
systems. if not brought under solitary
management, and grades and curves in
the trackage will be largely done away
with. so that the route will be practically
las the crow flies"
When these changes come about-even
before that time indeed-Savannah will be
the objective point of many railways from
the West, as well as from the East and
the South. NE city's advantageous geo
graphical situation and equable climate
will induce commerce by railroad and by
ship. BY that time the United States will
have come into possession of all of the
islands of the West Indies, and steamers
will be ferrying freight and passengers
between the islands ana the mainland,
with Savannah as the mainland end of
the ferry Should wharf frontage increase
during the next thirty years as ii has
during the past thirty, all of the lands
along the river from the Hermitage to We
nus Point and the quarantine station will
be lined with shipping, and there will be
ship building plants, coaling docks, dry
docks, and the hundred other adjunets to
commercial prosperity and greatness. along
the water froncH
There must inevitably be a seaport of the
first class on the South Atlantic, and there
is every reason why Savannah should be
that port. There is room for the expap-
sion of the city between the Savannah
river and the Ogeechee, and eastward to
Thunderbolt and the Isle of Hope; and
within these bounds city and mart may
be built TO command the commerce OF half
a continent. The greater city will be al
most surrounded by waterways, while Ty-
bee Warsaw and Ossabaw sounds are UNI
rivaled Ravens. Truly, there seems for
Savannah a great future.

How 1t sometimes works.

Il suppose you swore off on Jan. L."
said the man who always does it, accord
ing to the Denver Post.
No. sir did not replied the man who
always has done it heretofore. "The fact Is
l wanted to quit"
well, but that's just what I"
"Oh, 1 know, 1 know" interrupted the
man who hadn't sworn off; but l have
learned a thing or two. The surest way
to make man want 10 smoke or to drink
or do any old thing Is to swear off. Ten
minutes after thee swear-off commences
he has an almost irresistible inclination
TO break it. It's human nature Now, l
have just made up my mind that l don't
want to smoke. but I have also made it
clear to myself that l can if 1 want to.
That relieves the pressure and makes it
easier for me TO refrain. You. on the con-
trary, have entered into an agreement
with yourself positively not to do 1t, and
that makes you want to kick yourself for
fool every time you think of it. and
naturally lessons your determination"
Possibly said the man who had sworn
off, thoughtfully; possibly you are right"

Croker. or III. Ra.e.

l remember a curious encounter be-
tween two eminent statesmen at Wash
ington just about two years ago to-day,
says writer in the Chicago Journal. The
National League of Democratic Clubs was
holding its Jackson day dinner, and for
the first time a delegation of Tammany
statesmen had graced the occasion by
their presence. = Mr.. Croker, faublessly
groomed, as he always is, was observed
of all observers, and about him at re-
spectful distances were grouped his trusty
and humble retainers from the metropolis
Proving about in the throng l encoun-
tered Senator Ben Tillman of South Car
DINA, and 1 said to him: Don't you
want to go and meet Croker?"
oh said he, Il don't know. Is it
worth while?'
l said: Yes, come along" And so
fetched him up and introduced him. To
the horror of all the New Workers present
the famous iconoclast from the South. in
stead of being properly deferential, laid a
heavy hand upon the shoulder of the Tam
many boss and said: "Well, Croker, l am
glad to see you have come down among
real Democrats at last
l nave seldom seen Mr.. Croker thrown
off his balance in any way but he failed
utterly for a retort at this time. With a
little hesita ton and flushing deeply, he
replied: well, Senator you win admit
that Tammany has always been regular"

story of colored waiter in hotel in San

From the London Daily News.
It was out in the rain and the wind and
the groans
/ tended the wounded, foe and friend:
l thought with myself that the very
stones
OF the grim veldt-side,
If they could, would have cried,
Doctor! don't touch them; let death
make an endr'
And presently, propped by boulder gray,
A gray and prizzled old Boer l saw;
His whole right hand had been blown
away;
But quiet and calm,
He was reading a Psalm
From blood-stained book of the ancient
Law.
Make haste and help me-" the old Psalm
ran,
Deliver mel haste to help me, Lord!
Let those who seek my hurt to a man
Be put to shame,
That so Thy name
Be great upon all who trust Thy word"
Poor am I. Lord; Thou knowest how
poor:
This hand shall never hold sickle again
Lord. succor me!' groaned the gray
beard Boer;
''Tarry not! come
To take me homei
Lord, haste Thee, and help me out of this
paint
And there; as he prayed in the rain and
the wind,
To the gray old Boer from the Orange
Free State
The man who had fought for cattle and
kind
With his sons, and sons
Sons less than their guns
To free his land from the men of their
hate
There came at his call to the God of the
Psalm
The Helper of helpless after the fray.
And his face grew pale with wonderful
calm,
And the Psalm-book dropped.
And the blood-jet stopped
And the pain and the sorrow had passed
away.
H. ID. Rawnsley.
(After one OF the late battles in Natal
an old Boer was found badly wounded,
propped up among some rough powders
upon kopje side his rife was laid idly
by him. and the old man appeared to be
waiting for death, and was quietly read
ing his Bible)

The Timid Doll.

Helen, years old, was sent TO bed
alone on the third floor, Louise being sick
and kept down in her mothers room, says
the New York Commercial Advertiser. 1t
was the first time Helen had thus taken
on the grown persons burden, and she
was so good about it that presently her
elder sister crept up into the room to see
how she was getting along and to tell her
a story. She found her with hands clench-
ed around her doll and with her eyes and
mouth screwed up tightly. Helen opened
her eyes with a start and gasped: "Oh,
sister!"
why, what's the matter, Helen?"
"Well-you see, this doll is afraid, and
I have TO hold her hand. She is fraid of
foxes and-tigers!'
Nonsense, dearie," the sister said.
ooh. but she's afraid of more than that
robbers and burgulars!
well, why didn't you tell her that man.
