PERSONAL.
a Trust Blessing tndi-guised.

Listen. my friend. and will tell you
a horrible story of the way in which con-
solidsted interests. called by some people
trust, lave worked their will on the
helpless people OF Baltimore" said Mr..
Robert Grain. an eminent lawyer OF the
Monumental City, at the shoreham.
Our street car lines are operated by n
single company" he said last night. 81
am fairly well Informed as to the facts,
and unhesitatingly declare that Balti-
more has the best street railroad system
In the world. This IS a broad assertion.
but it is based on the truth. In the first
place, through the liberal scheme OF
transfers, passenger can ride almost 200
miles for single fare. The service is
wellnlgh perfect. the cars following each
other so rapidly that the public demands
for transportation IRE fully met. The
cars are comfortable and clean.
Above all. however the city of Balti-
more receives 3 per cent of the gross
revenues of these lines A total of 1885,
Uoo was turned into our public treasury
from this source during the past year.
The money went to the support of our
parks. Nowhere in the world is a tax OF
one-half this amount collected from local
street railways. Bear In mind that the
company pays its regular taxes in addi-
ton, Just as all property owners do. and
the siS5.O00 came solely as a percentage
on receipts. II is proper to add that un-
der uniiieation of eoitrol the lines pay
handsomely, and so both the public and
the owners are to be congratulated
Under competing arrangement of
separate companies and diverse manage
Inent no such goo,l results could have
been possible. good deal OF rubbish
about trusts has been spoken and writ
ten. but II our street railway system is
one. then its beneficence ought to bring
along many others OF the same kind"

DIR. EnsIish's Hale old Age.

Mr.. Arthur English. by a reporter for
The Times, was seen at the Raleigh last
evening. He is the son of Or. Thomas
Dunn English. the noted lIterateur. whose
poem, Ben Bolt" written when quite a
young man, has won as permanent a niche
in the temple reared to imperishable
songs as Annie Laurie" or Home,
Sweet Home"
Mr.. Arthur English is a lawyer, of New
York City. He has made a speciality OF
defending libel suits for magazines and
other publications. and has succeeded.
In speaking OF DR.. English, he said:
"My father lives at his old home in New
York. He will be eighty-three years old
his next birthday. His mind is Is clear
as a bell, aal he is in fairly good condi-
tion physically. except for his blindness.
He has the leading newspapers read to
him every morIifsig. and is thoroughly in
formed on current events. A short time
ago he had a spell OF sickness. and before
II was over three doctors were attending
him He made up his mind, one morning.
that he would stay in his room no longer.
One of the medical men protested. and
the patient. waxing indignant. gave the
trio of doctors a frank piece OF his mind
and discharged them with some words
that sounded greatly like malediction-"

,rri.co,- Lesson IN Pennies.

I'VE haven't any use for pennies in
California" said Mr.. s. VI. Morton. OF San
Francisco. at the Fairfax. "In Los An
geles they circulate a little. owing to
the fact that many Eastern people have
made that town their adopted home,
Everywhere else, in the State these small
coins are scorned because they are
thought Of TOO little financial Significance.
But It occurs to one that we could well
copv from New York and the East in re-
gard TO pennies. TO my mind their pres
ence and use in a community indicates
thrift. The boy who learns to take care
of the cent pieces will acquire the habit
of saving his dollars. | well remember
a time in the Southwest when even nickels
we're despised. Nothing circulated much
OF smaller value than the 'twO-bit pieces,
as they called those Old-time quarters.
The bootblack got two bits for shine.
The barber was similarly paid, and a
drink was the same. Times have changed
since then. and in proportion as smaller
coin came to be usel the people pros
pered."

A SENATOR ASSERTS.
Nobody Pays Any Attention to
What Peitigrew Says However
Indian Children With
Red Hair and Freck-
led Faces.

The senate yesterday devoted
itself to the Indian appropriation
bill and made only fair progress.
The chief feature OF the debate
was a sharp attack by Petligrew
on the Dawes commission.
During the consideration of ap-
preparation for Indian schools But
Ter said he had visited such
schools and observed that there
we're at present white children
taking advantage of benefits.
Mr.. Thurston replied that no
children are received unless they
are regarded as Indians by tribes
no matter how slightthe admixture
Of Indian blood.
Mr.. Jones, Arkansas, added that
be knew many Indian children
who had freckled faces, blue eyes
and red hair.
Pettigrew. South Dakota, ex-
pressed the opinion that the whole
Indian school system ought to b.
oyerhauIed. de made a vigorous
attack upon the Dawes Indian I
commission, asserting that there
was no more corrupt or extrava-
CANT body in the service Of the
United States than that commits
sion.
Pettigrew offered an amendment
that the Dawes commits
ion shall file an itemized state-
nent Of its expenditures to Jan. 1,
901, and annually thereafter. The
was accepted, and an
making the total ap-
for the commission
324 600 was adopted.

VERDICT SET ASIDE.
A Jury Returns Finding Not in Ac-
cordance With the Facts.

The greater part of yesterday
was taken up in Judge Thomas
court with the trial OF the case
brought by Walter B. Jones against
Kinney Gaskey and the marshal's
Office for damages.
Mrs. Gaskey secured a judgment
against Dennis FL. Wilson, admin
istrator of the estate Of Benson
Back. An execution was given to
the officers to serve on the tenants
who rented from the estate and the
suit grows out Of a dispute as to
whether or not an error was made
in disposessing Jones, who clslms
not to have been a tenant.
After being out several hours the
jury returned g verdict for the de-
fendant. This was not considered
a just finding and Judge Thomas
asked: who represents this
When the attorney
answered the court asked if be

lawyer had no sooner answered 4

said "Granted.

Advocating Good Roads.

Gsa. ID. G. Butler is interesting
himself actively in the good roads
movemsns in South Carolina.
Recognizing the CREST Importance Of
this progressive movement, he has
thrown the weight Of his personality
ana influence in its behalf. He is not
simply lending it the moral support Of
his approval, but is actively at work in
the cause. He proposes to advocate
the adoption by the next session of the
legislature Of bill to make the Safe

sioners of public highway. Ha says

Doo.TirhT Gates.

According to recent decision Of a
prussian court, the railroads in that
country must have dog-tight crossing
gates, or stand liable for any canine
injuries resulting from failure to do
so. Some time ago, while the gates
were closed at e railroad crossing in
Munster, an aristocratic lunt1ng-dog,
IN the active pursuit Of his vocation,
eluded the obstacle and struck the
track at that point simultaneously with
an express train. The train passed on
unscathed says Law Notes, but the dog
had to be picked up with a sponge.
In a suit by the owner to recover $50
damages for the taking off Of his blue
blooded pet, the railroad company
claimed that it had performed its whole
duty in shutting the gates, and that II
the dog was so ill-mannered as to
climb over or crawl under in the face Of
such a; manifest desire to exclude him,
then the blame was with his master.
The Court, however, held that it was
the duty of the railroad to keep the dog
of it's tracks, and appointed experts to
determine whether the barriers provid-
ed were reasonably calculated to pre-
vent the passage Of unwary dogs. They
reported adversely to the defendant,
and. after a further reference to ex-
perts in canine pedigree to determi1s
the value of the deceased, the plain
tiff was awarded $50, with interest
from the date Of the catastrophe.
