A little volume of poems by Rev. Henry
Van Dyke. entitled 1.-The Toiling of Felix
and Other Poems" will attract attention
both by reason of it's contents and the rep
utation of the versatile author who. besides
being one of the best preachers in New
York. writes interesting essays, good
stories and pretty verse. The present
volume does not contain many poems, but
they are all high class in their several
ways. The title poem 1.-The Toiling of
Felix" is poetic version of a legend
founded on some lost words of Christ and
the experiences of an early Christian
named Felix. 1t is beautifully written and
instinct with devotional spirit. Most of the
other poems deal with different phases of
nature in outdoor life. bird life, ETC. One
OF these. song in praise of fishing, with a
series of choruses supplied by birds, is a
gem. The River of Dreams is long,
soothing. melodious song in praise of
Sancho Panza's favorite sleep. The book
should make new friends and admirers for
the author. New York: Charles Scribner's

EXPORTS OF LOCOMOTIVES.
Four Millions Worth Sent Abroad I'm
Nine MOnths-British Statement.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 13-The fact that
more than $4,000, 900 worth of American rail-
way engines have been exported in the
nine months ending with March, 1900. as
compared with less than 100000 worth
In the corresponding months ending with
responding months of 1885, lends especial
interest to the following statement from
report by the British agent and consul gen.
eral in Egypt. which has just been re-
ceived by the Treasury Bureau of Statis-
tics. The report says:
Large additions were made in the rolling
stock in the course of the last year. Most
of the new stock added is. however, to re-
place old stock which has been condemned

gines-exceeding in power the largest loco

tract from the report of Captain tombstone.
the acting president of the railway ad-
ministration is, / think, of sufficient gen.
eral interest to justify my quoting it in
full:
The number of break-downs in our
stock has been very considerable, although
happily they have not led to any consider
able accidents. This Is partly due to the
changes in the workshops (now nearly

necessitated the postponement of repairs,
and partly to some of the stock supplied
to us having been of inferior quality. Now

shops are completed. repairs are being
pushed on, while the list of firms allowed
TO tender for stock is being carefully re-
vised and the names of firms who have
supplied unsatisfactory material are being
struck off. L am glad to say that the
only locomotives recently supplied by an
English firm-Messrs. Nelson, Rold & Co.
OF GlasSow-have not given the slightest
trouble. Those purchased from America In
1888 have also done well. but as they diff
fer in many respects from our standard
types our own men have taken some time
to learn their peculiarities and we have not
been able 10 get the best results out of
them. The action of the board in ordering
locomotives and wagons (cars) from Amer
lea has been criticised. Ii is due partly
to this fact: That American firms. while
they are not In a position TO tender on
more favorable terms than others on our
designs. almost invariably offer US en-
gtnes or wagons built to standard designs
OF their own at lower prices and In less
time. whilst English and other European
makers content themselves with rendering

reputation by the press of the country on

shown by him while in a wreck in the
northern part of the State. He was thrown
undek a car, where he lay for four hours,
refusing assistance until every one else had
been removed. Finally, his arms being free,
he assisted in cutting himself out with an
axe. Both of his legs were cut off above
the knees. but he recovered. A wife sur

praise to call 1T conventional English

100000. What do you think has brought
about this wonderful degree of prosperity?
1t is largely attributable and directly
traceable to the increase in the value of
lead, copper and wool. Greater industrial
activity has enhanced the demand for and
the value of the two minerals. The policy
of protection, extended under the Dingley
tariff to American wool, has more than
doubled the value of that product to the
American sheep farmer.

possible that the voters in Colorado, Idaho

4RARE TREAT.
leonard Edward Blanks Married Three
Wives From One Family With
In q Month.

Cincinnati Nov. 5-Coroner Schwab
yesterday ordered an investigation of
the recent death of Myrtle Teeters, os
Lockland. a northern suburb. Mayor
Mullen and Marshal Steward of Lock-
land had previously investigated the
case, and preferred charges to the
coroner against Leonard Edward
Blanks, who married Miss Wade, aged
Is, Miss Teeters, aged Is and Mrs.
Caroline Lindley, aged 40 in close sue
cession.
Mrs. Lindley was the aunt of Miss
Wade and the step-grandmother of
Miss Teeters. who died. October 9, at
the house of Mrs. Lindley, when it is
alleged whisky was administered by
Blanks.
After the young wife died Blanks
took Miss Wade, equally young, as his
wife, and they lived with Mrs. Lindley.
Blanks was "a years of age, less than
half the age of Mrs. Lindley, who be-
came infatuated with him, sold her
farm last Monday and eloped with
Blanks to indianapolis. Last Thurs-
day morning, Mrs. Lindley woke
up in Indianapolis and found
that over one thousand dollars had
been taken from ner pillow, and
Blanks was missing. This caused such
al official investigation here as to
cause serious charges, but the a
rants will o be issued until after
Coroner Schwab reports.
