LincOln's Retreat.

Rev. Mr.. .Alcott, of Elgin. Ill.,, one
of Abraham Lincoln's Springfield ac-
quaintances, tells of seeing him come
away from church unusually early one
Sunday morning. The sermon could
not have been more than half way
through," says Mr.. Alcott. His son
Tad was slung across his left arm
like a7pair of .saddle-bags, and Lincoln
was striding along with long and DELHI
crate steps toward his home. On ono
of the street corners he encountered a
group of his fellow-townsmen. Lincoln
anticipated the question which was
about to be put by the group, and, talk
ing his figure of. speech from practices
with. which they were only too famil-
lar, said: 'Gentlemen, I entered this

The business men of the country
have at last taken alarm at some Of
the statements made in favor of the
subsidy BILL One of these statements
- IAoe IAcs ou4Ouul pd4a ny Inc CdIIld8S
Of foreign ma ls should be deducted
from the &m0nnt of the subsidy when
the EXPENSE is being considered. In
other words; it has been plainly init
mated by: Senator Frye and others that
these! subsidized ships are to carry all
the foreign mails of the United States.
In examining Into the records of the,
American ships which will draw SUBJ
sidy the business men discover that if
these ships carry the mails the mails
to Europe and, from, Europe will be de-
layed from two to three days. To have
these ships carry the foreign mails in
stead Of having them carried as they
are now by the fast foreign companies,
would result in the loss of many mill
lions of dollars to American importers
and exporters. This feature of the sub
sidy bill has brought forth good many
very vigorous protests.

heard Blanche singing as she sat at

| M ERRY MONTH.

What the poets have called "the merry month of May" has ended It has indeed been merry month in this region. So merry that it has tichled many almost to death. When it hasn't sprinkled it has rained, and when it hasn't lainad it has poured. It has been a great month for liquid air It has also been a great month for hope. There has been a large and continuous provo cation during the month to hope that it would clear off. Few months have in- spired more hope of that kind. Few months have given more ground, or water, for hope in the Rubber trust And few months have given more hope that there wouldn't be another month like it. Having been hopeful all through May let us go hopefully into June. This is the month of which the poet says 'Then Heaven tries the earth if it be in tune, and over it softly her warm ear lays" Let us hope that the poet will hit it better in this month than he did in May. The earth isn't in tune yet, according to the reports of unpoetic farmers who have been trying it, but perhaps before this month is over Heaven will find it in tune.

NdHIl OLD NInRY.

| There isn't anything in the experience
 encourage those who advocate public ownership and management of light ing plants. The manager of the light ing plant in Taunton reports that the plant is nearly worn out. that the
 buildings are in danger of tumbling in-
 to a river during any heavy storm, that the machinery is out of date, and that the power needed to run it cannot be secured with the material on hand. The city must now build practically a new plant, or else go out of the lighting business. This Taunton experiment has for years been held up as an example of the successful municipalization of public utilities"--a plant which not only furnished light for the street lamps and tse city offices, but also for the offices and residences of citizens, and at the same time was 'operated at a profit" The truth was that no ac count had been taken of the steady de- preciation of the plant and of the ap- preaching necessity for large expendit- ures to keep it running.
 It is the same old story. The public can still hpy many things it needs cheaper than it can make them for it. self.

RAPID TRANSIT IN ENGLAND.

It doesn't seem fitting that the com paratlvely slow Europeans should get ahead of the very lively people of this country in the matter of rapid transit, but they are doing it. Only a delay in gaining parliamentary sanction, which probably soon will be given, holds back the building of ali experimental electric elevated railroad line between Liver pool and Manchester, on which it is the purpose of the projectors to demon- strate the feasibility of running trains st the rate of one hundred and ten miles an hour with safety and profit. The contemplated road is to make use of a single rail in a manner somewhat similar to that which characterizes the Behr system in operation in Brussels, on which a speed of ninety miles an hour is said to be successfully main- tained The cars, but two of which will constitute a train, will straddle the track, as it were, the single rail bearing the weight of the train side rails, which
