USE OF PRIVATE CARS.
Many Handsome Railway Coaches
Are Now Owned by Men Not
MiIliOnaires.

Private railway cars have always
been associated in the popular mind
with great wealth, but plan has been
developed which makes 1t possible for
even a vaudeville actor or a business
man In ordinary circumstances, or any
body else reasonably well to do, who
wishes to make a display or to enjoy
the luxury of travel, to own a private
car built according to his own speci-
fications, according to the Worlds
Work.
A car-reftting company In New York
city buys old Pullman coaches, tears
the inside furnishings out and refits
them according to the wishes of its
customers. Whatever kind Of private
car a man may wish he may order
parlors, handsomely carpeted, sitting
rooms, dining oms,-sleeping COM
partments, smoking rooms-all with
equipment more or less perfect ac-
cording as the price. And cars are
refitted in this way and sold for prices
varying from $1,000 to $4,000.
Very handsome and serviceable cars
have been built from the old "casta.
ways" and the man of moderate means
can travel privately and comfortably
in a home of his own. 1t is an interest
ing evidence of American manufacture
ing thrift and of the growth of wealth.

SIGNALING MARS IMPOSSIBLE
1t Is Entirely Beyond the Power OF
Human Resources to Ac-
cOmpIish.

The very largest city that this eartn
has ever known would be altogether
too small to be visible to "a being
dwelling on the planet Mars, even II
that being were endeavoring to see IL
with a telescope as powerful as tne
greatest and most perfect instrument
in any observatory on this globe, says
Sir Robert S. Ball, in the Independent
IL the whole extent of Lake SUI
perior was covered with petroleum.
and If that petroleum was set on nre'
then I think we may admit that an
inbabitant of Mars who was furnished
with telescope as good as that whicn
Mr.. Percival Lowell uses at Falkstaff
might be able to see that something
had happened. But we must not sup
pose that the mighty confagration
would appear to the Marian as very
conspicuous object. 1t would rather
be a very small feature, but still L
think it would not be beyond the
reach of a practiced observer in that
planet. On the other hand, II an area
the size of Lake Superior on Mars was
to be flooded with petroleum and that
petroleum was to be kindled, we would
expect to witness the event from here
not as great and striking conhagra-
ton. but as a tiny little point of Just
discernible light. The disk of Mars IS
not a large object, and the confiagra-
ton would not extend over the three
hundredth part of that disk.
It is sufficient to state these facts
TO show that the possibility OF sig
mailing to Mars is entirely beyond the
mower of human resources.

Tanning TilIman.
Richmond News, Dem.


Eleven years ago today B. r. Tillman,
Senator from South Carolina, began his
first campaign for Governor of that State.
Today a chill will fall upon his admirers
and followers throughout that State, caused
by publication of his speech delivered at
Union yesterday.
Senator McLaurin, in letter to the
State Democratic Executive Committee,
printed last Wednesday, denounced Sena'
tor Tillman fercely, accusing him of cow
ardice and corruption. Judging from I'LL
mans reputation for ferocity and despera'
ton, the public looked for torrent OF In
vective and a great demonstration in re-
ply. Instead of that, we find in the press
dispatches the synopsis of a fiat, tame and
feeble effort.
Accused of having refrigerated from
honorable bankruptcy to dishonorable
wealth while in Office, Senator Tillman
merely says in reply that it is call rot, "
and refers to his county tax returns and
his home bank account to prove that he
is yet poor man. That is the same
answer he has made to specific and public
charges against bis personal integrity for
eight years. Now he has been put on his
defense more directly than ever before,
and, In the language of the criminal court
procedure he islands mute" and gives bis
attention to an effort to prove that the
Administration is not entitled to any of
the credit for the recent development Of
cotton manufactures in the South.
The followers of the supposed to be in
vincible Tillman will be sorely disappoint'
ed and depressed by his suddenly mild
and pacific attitude in the presence of a
man who has fought him with his own
weapons. The great bulldozer missed his
chance yesterday. He was supposed to
be in the first heat and passion of wrath
caused by the complete and remarkably
plain spoken denunciation of himself
printed four days ago. 1t will be too late
for him TO work up a rage later. The
man who fails to defend his character at
the first opportunity can not command
public respect or confidence or arouse en-
thusiasm by belated efforts in that direc'
ton.

LATlN-AMERICAN OUTBREAKS.
Intervention of the United States to
Preserve Law and Order Called
New York Herald. "

New York Herald"
From all points of view, commercial,
humanitarian or diplomatic, decided &C.
ton is called for if the United States
would restore order out of chaos now and
guard against foreign complications, posi-
bly, even foreign war, In the future.
From commercial standpoint energetic
measures are desirable in view of the vast
interests involved; from humanitarian
standpoint, because prompt action would
probably prevent further bloodshed,
thirty.fve thousand lives having been sac
rifced already In the Colombian upheaval
of the last year and half, and from a
diplomatic standpoint from the certainty
that decided attitude now would indls-
pose any European Power to intrigue With
Central American governments for terri
torial concessions disguised as leases OF
ports, islands, etc. For it would be inter-
preted as significant manifestation OF
the determination of the American people
to resist by every means in their power
any attempt to encroach upon their gu
premacy.
Thus, as an assertion of the FREEDOM
inant rights of the United States to pro-
tect the Central American Republics
against the dangers of their own reckless
waywardness, it would be difficult to
overestimate the value of prompt, deter
mined action.
In the first place, the object sought by
such overwhelmingly, the restoration
of peace and order-could now be achiev-
ed easily, without bloodshed, at small
cost, efficiently and to the glory and
honor of those controlling the foreign
policy of the United States. If action be
delayed until the conhagration spreads
and possibly involves some European
Power the same end can be obtained only
with difficulty and at the cost of terrible
bloodshed and expenditure of millions of
dollars.

The Ailments of Genius.

Mr.. Haveock Ellis has been pursuing
a series of researches into the causes OF
death of great men, and into the all
ments to which they are subject. He
finds that govt is preponderating all
ment of genius. The list given of the
victims of govt is long and interesting
one. 1t includes John Milton, William
Harvey, Isaac Newton, Samuel Johnson,
Savage Lander, w. X. Hamilton and
last, though by no means least, Darwin
himself. Epilepsy has long been known
also as an ailment associated with a high
order of brain. Napoleon, Mahomet,
Lord Herbert Of Cherbury and Hamilton
are cited as examples of the epileptic ten
dencv. Julius Caesar might probably
have been also added to the list, while
Swedenborg is claimed by alienistF as also

convention was the publication of cleo
tions in the State. It was claimed by the
leaders and the newspapers who favored
the convention that frauds had become SO
common that the State was being disgrace
ed. 1t was the first time the Democracy
had confessed that fraud was prevalent in
Virginia, and the confession was then
made, it seems, for the purpose of getting
the people to consent to change in the
organic law.
Now the Democrats meet in convention
and make no declaration in favor of hon.
est elections or Of their purpose to "de'
throne the political brigands and rescue
the Commonwealth from an official des'
potism." This quotation is from an edi'
torial published in the paper of the chair
man of the convention held at Norfolk
last week.
The platform of that convention says:
AS a convincing assurance OF the re-
suits which may be expected from the
continued control and management OF the
affairs of the State by the Democratic
party, we point to the record of what ii
has already accomplished within recent
period"
According to the testimony of its leaders
and its newspapers, within recent
period" it has brought about very un'
seemly condition OF affairs. Corrupt cleo
ton methods, dishonest elections, politl-
cal brigandage and other things that have
been bringing the State into disrepute

platform in favor of tier removal. 1t mol
only sanctions these things but expects &c

have made a discovery to that effect

San Francisco Examiner.
"When the animal died" said the
physician, 81 was not satisfied with
the cause of his taking off and made
careful autopsy. ! was assisted by
veterinary surgeon, and we had not
been long at our task when it became
evident that death had resulted from
acute appendicitis.
'The animal had been i'll for year,
and in reviewing his symptoms l can
see that they were identical with
those of humans who suffer from re-
current attacks of this disease. OF
course did not at first think of a
dog suffering from anything of this
sort. There was no record of such
a disease among animals.

the cotton plantations of the country
were east of the Mississippi. But now
nearly one-half of the entire Ameri-

territory west of the river.
