THE PROPOSED Buffalo branch of the Penn
sylvania Railroad will start at Wilcox, Pa,
and follow route across the ridges by way Of
Lafayette, Mexican county. In that vicinity
it will cross deep and mountainous gorge
with steel viaduct nearly 800 feet high. The
bridge will be over 5000 feet in length and
its construction will be one of the greatest
engineering feats ON record 1t will be the
highest bridge in the world. A corps of en-
gineers has surveyed the line to point near
Bradford, through which it will pass. Work
will be pushed rapidly during the spring and
summer.

LEcKY, THE historian, in his recent sugges-
tive and most instructive work, 1.-The Map of
Life,' makes this remark: "As Spinoza has
taught, the proper study Of wise man is not
how to die but how to live and as long as be
is discharging this task Alright he may leave
the end to take care Of itself. The great guild
ing landmarks of a wise life are indeed few
and simple; to do our duty-to avoid useless
sorrow-to acquiesce patiently in the inevita-
ble." There are a hundred sermons in that
remark. The great problem each one for him.
self must solve is how to live properly. honor
ably and coursgeously. The act of dying is
secondary matter. Whether this comes soon
or late, it has no terrors for him who can say
he did the very best he could for himself, his
family, his country and his God.

The DEMOCRATIC papers are giving great
prominence to the rumor that Cleveland is
going to support Bryan this year. Ever since
1893 or 1894 the majority Of Clevelands party
have been disowning him, and pretending he
vas Republican, but now they are beginning
to say he is Democrat after ali. Perhaps
they are right about his politics, but it is pretty
safe to predict Cleveland is not going to take
the stump for Bryan this year or at any other
time. even though, as some of the Bryanites
say, 1.-The Republicans have settled the money

EACH SENATOR of the United States is fur
nished with a secretary at 81, 800 per year, but
now they want a valet or messenger each at
81, 440 per year. No doubt the worthy Sena-
tors, seeing that the public furnishes them with
quinine, bay rum and castor oil, think it
should also give them a man to help on with
their overcoats and brush the same. More
than this, the Senate will begiven ninety more
places to fill. We are not sticklers for Mig
gardly simplicity, but object to useless and
preposterous extravaganza.
QUEEN VICTORIA has given orders that the
tails of the horses in the royal stables shall
not be docked. This is said to have so affec-
ted the fashion in England that shipments of
carriage horses from this country are now or
dered without locked tails After all there is
some use in royalty if it would always set a
good fashion. Next in cruelty to killing bird
to adorn hat is the docking of a borses tail.
1t is an absurdity also, for an animal cannot
be made beautiful by designation.
