The Comma
OF Summer
So

Is not all poetry-there
is a practical side also. II
means the advent of much
hot and dry weather. This
condition of the weather
makes the shingle roof, the
things about the barn and
houses dry enough to take
fire without much careless
ness" and while you are not
uneasy about the old defec-
tive flue, isn't the summer
heat and dryness more cause
for uneasiness? Better take
our advice and buy some
good insurance at the low
rates we're now giving.
It's too late to insure after
the fire.

The world is full OF such opportuni-
ties as those accorded to the young
water-carrier OF the Santa Fe. and it
Is for the lads who are growing up
about US to grasp those opportuni-
ties and hang on like grim death.
The rewards are sure to come-not
always in the form OF management
of great railway lines, but there are
prizes in other fields that need till
ing by good. Industrious, painstak
ing and jealous men and boys.
The lesson contained in this simple
story is merely that one must do
the first thing that his hands find to
do. whether 1T he carrying watar,
sellin 2 newspapers, blacklng boots,
driving a dray or sweeping II floor.
The boy who sweeps floor in first
class shape is certain to catch the
eye OF his employer sooner or later
and nothing can keep him from pro-
motion except himself. Good men
were never so scarce as they are
right at this minute. The man who
can be depended upon every where
and ell the time is never long out OF
a job, and when an employer finds
such man he is counted a Jewel
above price in all the various places
in the world where work is to be
done.-Las Angeles Times.

A Lesson for Bows.

The great Santa Fe Railroad sys-
tenn has a new general manager;
his name is Henry G. Nudge, and the
story OF his rise is one that interests
every boy in America who has to
make his own way in the world, for
it shows what possibilities there are
for those who can "carry a mess age
to Garcia" as the rise OF another
man has shown before.
When Mr.. Nudge was about six
teen years old. his father went to
Kansas and took up a claim near
Sterling in that state. At that time
the Santa Fe was pushing it's track
westward and young Nudge secured
a job as water boy to q gang OF track
layers. When work was stopped for
the winter the young water carrier
returned to Sterling and made a deal
with the station agent there to do
Choir es around the depot if the agent
would teach him telegraphy. After
but three months practice at brass
pounding the lad was proficient
enough to be appointed extra oper-
ator. Continuing in that line of
work for three months. he took n
six months course as brakeman.
anothersix months as baggage man,
and before reaching the age OF TWEEN
ty-one became conductor. Following
this he was successfully roadmaster,
traiumaster, assistant division sup
erintendent, division superintend-
emit, general superintendent OF the en-
tire system, and now he has been
made general manager OF one of the
greatest lines OF railway in America.
All this has been accomplished since
the year 1872.
This is simple and common story
in the history OF railroading in this
country, and vet it is "A story which
is always OF interest to the youag
men OF the nations for the record OF
such a career is an inspiration to ef-
fort--a lesson not likely to be lost
upon those who have no capital ex-
cept stout and honest heart, u
resolute will and a dauntiess spirit.

The Growing Volume of Money.

ST. Louis Globe- Democrat The
per capita man ought to be happy.
For each person. IN she United States
the amount OF money in circulation
is $26.12. In 1896 the figure was
$21.53. An increase of over 20 per
cent in the per capita within four
years, making Cue allowance for in
creased population, should satisfy
any one except opulist who wants
! ! paper money to trundle around by
the wagon load. More than ST.
600, 200, 900 OF money are now cir
culating in this country the increase
in four years reaching $492, 900, 900.
All these dollars are recognized
throughout the world as equivalent
to gold. -Four years ago the gold
circulating in the United States was
$3.50, 900, 900, while now it is 1885,
600, 900, an increase OF 60 per cent.
Has silver fallen back I? Not a bit OF
it. The amount OF silver and silver
certificates in circulation has in
creased in four years from $685.
100000 to 1881 100000. For the
first time the money in circulation
has reached the $4,000, O00,O 900
mark, and every dollar is worth
100c. in gold.
Here is republican triumph OF
great magnitude; so large, in fact,
that the democratic papers never re-
fer to it. They advocate free coinage
as the only road to an increased
volume ofmoney. But in less than
four years after the Chicago platform
was offered to the people as the true
system OF finance the circulation has
increased by nearly $500,000,000.
The paramount democratic ISIS ne in
1896 was, as events have demon
strated, huge blunder, and an alb
solute reversal OF everything that
could insure the prosperity of the
country. 1t takes nerve in the presi-
Dental candidate who led that cause
to come forward again and offer his
views on public questions as worthy
OF confidence. Sound jud gment in a
leader is essential. Ii he has been
identified wit a radical error, one
proved beyond question, he can not
be trusted to point the way in other
issues. What Bryan declared was
the worst financial policy is unmis-
takably the best.

the same purpose and better in somc
ways.
The story is that the wheeling &
Lake Erie. in bidding for the Terminal,
win be backed by the Wabash system.
II this is true the interests OF the Wa
bash wheeling & Lake Erie bidder
would be in sympathy with the Union
town. waynesburg & West Virginia
for It Is understood that the wabash's
purpose in joining issues with the
wheeling & Lake Erie is to reach the
western Pennsylvania coke fields, and
this can be dons only through . traffic
agreement and close relations with the
Unlontown. waynesburg & West Viz
ginla. The scheme goes even further
and contemplates the construction Of a
railroad from Uniontown east to Cham
bersburg, Pa, to Connection with the
Reading railroad system. Thus the
wabash. Wheeling q Lake Erie. Wheel
ing Terminal. Uniontown. waynesburg
& West Virginia. Unlontown e Cham
bersburg and Reading would make up a
new trunk line that would be in a class
by ltself--ln that 1t would reach from
the Atlantic seaboard to Kansas city
and Omaha on the west Wheeling
would then be directly on the main line
OF the most Important group OF railroad
systems in the country THE roads men
toned would, it IS claimed, be the short
line east and west.
In this connection. It is interesting to
learn that an effort was made recently
by several interests to acquire the
wheeling Bridge & Terminal from the
receiver through the United States
court. The companies bidding for the
road were the Baltimore & Ohio ana
wheeling & Lake Erie. and another bid
came from interests that are allied with
the Uniontown, waynesburg & West
Virginia. 1t was soon ascertained that
the road could not be acquired without
the Formally of going through a fore
closure sale, which has recently been
ordered and is now being arranged for
by Special Master Nelson c. Hubbard,
of this city. The date of the sale is
May %.
The result OF the sale will be awaited
with interest. 1t means much to Wheel
ing.

LIKELY TO Be VERY LIVELY.
Baltimore & Ohio, Wheeling & Lake

ARE THE ROADS IN THE FIELD
For the Terminal, According to Re-
liable Internationally Mean
q Big Trunk Line.

The sale OF the Wheeling Bridge s
Terminal Railway Company's system
on May %, by Special Master Nelson {.
Hubbard, including the railroad. bridge
across the Ohio, franchises. rights-in
fact, everything the company owns-ls
attracting great interest in railroad
circles, and 1t is now known several In
terests will figure among the bidders.
The Intelligencer has 1t on excellent
authority that Representatives OF thc
Baltimore & Ohio Company viii bid for
the road; that representatives Of the
proposed UnIontowu. Waynesburg &
West Virginia VIII bid. and 1t is likely
that the wheeling & Lake Erie tsaid to
be backed by the wabashl will be in the
field. With three bidders. at least, in.
the field 1t is likely that the property
will command a pretty fair price.
The Baltimore & Ohio wants the Ter
minai for obvious reasons, principal
among which would be the ideal pas
senger station location that would be
secured for the big trunk line. Another
reason for the Baltimore & Ohio ac-
curing the Terminal would be TO
checkmate the new UnIontown, waynes-
burg s. West Virginia companys plans.
These reasons. aside from the advan-
tages accruing to the Baltimore & Ohio
in being able to reach the large indus
trial establishments over the river at
Martins Ferry and Aetnaville.
The UnIontown, waynesburg & West
Virginia needs the Terminal more thah
any OF the other probable bidders. If
it could buy up the Terminal 1t would
have already constructed an entrance
into Wheeling and trackage to the large
manufacturing establishments in this
city together with the necessary bridge
across the Ohio. and connections with
the Wheeling & Lake Erie, Cleveland,
Loraln & Wheeling and Cleveland q
Pittsburgh roads; also trackage to the
large coke consuming establishments on
the Ohio side. II the Terminal is ac-
quired by the Uniontown. waynesburs

the necessity OF constructing costly
independent line into the city, including
two tunnels and requirement OF a costly
right OF way through the South Side

quired, this company's plans would be
changed in some particulars; the bridge
