1 that in from five to ten years the road will be doing a good paying business and twenty years hence will not be able to meet the demands upon it. The nair end sought by the railroad has been tc establish rapid communication with Uganda and the country about the headwaters of the Nile in order to de- velop their great natural resources by providing market for their products A vast tract has also been opened up, with excellent soil and sufficient rain fall to produce all kinds of crops, at an elevation above the sea-level fit for Eu- ropean habitation, but practically un- inhabited.
 Perhaps the securities" of the Ugan- da railroad will turn out to be as good as the securities of some of the good United States roads have turned out to be. Africa is a growing country.

CAN'T BE KhPT DOWN.

It's as hard to keep good city down
 as it is to keep good man down. The | commerce of the port of Galveston, 1 Texas, for the year just closed, makes | a splendid showing, despite the unpre- | cedented hurricane of last September. 1 For the year ended August 31 the re- ceipts of cotton at Galveston were D. | 1779S3 bales, an increase of about 450,- 900 bales compared with the previous year. Its bank clearings for the year
 amounted to $360,359 900, compared with sS39, ,642,000 the preceding year. The total coastwise and foreign exports for the year were valued at $246, ,567,247, as
 compared with S21S, S,SS4,512 for the pre-
 vious season. Its total foreign ex-
 ports including domestic and foreign
 goods, were valued at $1O1, 962, 792, an in-
 crease of over $15,O0O,0 900 over last year.
 During the year 1,69919 bales of cot
 ton were exported, valued at $S2, ,093 9S2,
 compared with 1,59O, 269 bales, valued at
 $63, ,271 ,221, for the preceding year. Dur
 ing the year 14,O1O375 bushels of wheat
 were exported, an increase of 1,000,000
 bushels. The resumption of business
 on such a scale" says the Galveston
 News, 'would have been impossible if Galveston had not been the most access sible and economical port for an enor- nous traffic. It is the natural outlet for more than one-fourth of the area of the United States. and as port for all the country tributary to 1t Calves ton represents an economy in time and rates which cannot be substituted"

4 RIG PEKSUADER.


 It is fitting that the United States. which has so many of the biggest things, should have the biggest gun This biggest gun is now awaiting it's carriage in the shops of the Army gun factory at Watervliet, New York. It was planned ten years ago, and has been over five years in process of con struction. It is the most powerful en- zine of destruction known. It is a sixteen-inch breech loading rife, and it is intended for harbor defence. Forty of these monsters were recommended by the Endcott board for the harbors of New York Boston, San Francisco, and Hampton Roads. New York was to have eighteen, Boston eight, San Francisco ten, and Hampton Roads four According to present intentions this number will be somewhat reduced. Some idea of the size and power of this gun may be had from the fact that it throws a projectile weighing 2370 pounds. It requires 1,176 pounds of or dinary powder to do this, or 576 pounds of the new smokeless powder The cost of a single firing of the gun is over $1,- 800, of which the projectile alone costs LOGO. The gun has range of twenty ore miles. It has penetrating power that will. it is estimated, bore 423 inches into hardened steel. The missile which it hurls Is nearly as long as a man, five feet and four inches. It will throw this projectile, if aimed at an angle of 45 degrees, to a height in the trajectory of over five miles.
 This great gun could appropriately be called "the persuader.' It would have a powerful influence on anything or that it was used against.

town was notable event. All of their surviving children were present and a hundred other relatives and friends, MT and Mrs. Locke have a wall sweep clock that has been running ninety years, and so far as is known It has been an excellent time- keeper all that time. It is an authority for exact tune in the neighborhood. They have dozens of interesting relics of old time days, among them being the stockings worn by Mrs. Locke on her wedding day. Those stockings have a unique history. The cotton from which they were made was planted by Mrs. Locke when she lived in North Carolina. She cultivated the plants, gathered the bolls of cotton, carded it, spun 1t and knitted the yarn into stockings The instep of each stocking is ornamented with a representation of a two-story house. Mrs. Locke told her girl friends that it was a picture of the house in which she expected to live after she was married. Her ambition was req lized, for she has lived in sWostory house for more than forty years.-Indi- annapolis Journal.

COLLAPSING AND EXPLODING
 

COLLAPSING AND EXPLODING BOILERS.
 There is good deal of inaccuracy in the popular talk about boilers blowing up or exploding" said an old boiler maker discussing the wreck of the City of Trenton.
 ''If too much pressure is .exerted on the interior of a boiler which is weak in any part the weak part will give and the boiler will collapse. If any body is standing near it at the time he runs the risk of being fatally scalded by the steam, but the boiler stays just where it was and nothing is wrecked but the boiler. This is what sometimes happens to kitchen boilers, which nev- CT can, in the true sense, blow up or explode. But when the boiler is equally strong ir every part and steam is generated so suddenly that it has no chance to escape through the safety valve a real explosion occurs, the boil CT is torn from it's fastenings and tears through the air like tremendous can- non ball. Such an explosion is attend cd by general wreck of everything in the path of the boiler and usually by horrible fatalities" Philadelphia Times.

MORE coon NEVIS FROM BUFFALO The news from Buffalo continues to
 be good, so good that many will find it hard to fully believe 1t, and yet there is no reason for disbelieving it. The
 President seems to be making, so far,
 an uninterrupted and rapid recovery
 from his serious wound He has had
 many things in his favor He was op-
 erated upon promptly and with great
 skill. Everything that was needed for such an emergency was at hand. He
 has been helped by the best of care, and he has helped himself by his calm mind and strong will. The weather has been all that could be desired, and all his surroundings have been quiet and pleasant. It is now more than shot, and none of the dreaded symptoms seems to have appeared. If his inn
 provement continues 1t will not be long before it is definitely announced that he is out of danger. It is said that he wanted to see the newspapers yester- day. When he is allowed to see them he will be cheered by the evidences of the affection and respect of the people which he will find in them. The people will be glad when he can know how they have sympathized with him, and they are fervently hoping that there news that comes from his bedside.

THE CG,fNDA RAlLROd

The Uganda railroad is nearly done. It is expected that by the end of Octo- Der the rails will reach the terminus on the Victoria Nyanza, 5S3 miles from the ocean. This great work has been done under great difficulties. The first half of the road runs through an unhealthy wilderness, without resources and sparsely populated. Supplies of every kind had to be brought from England and India for the army of twenty thou sand workmen, and even water had to be carried through dry tracts from twenty to sixty miles in extent. The remainder of the road runs through mountainous region. the highest alti- tude reached being $500 feet. Among minor difficulties were the tsetse fly, which prevented the use of transport animals, and in some parts the labor CTS were constantly being frightened off the work by man. eating lions. It is estimated that the total cost will be about twenty-six million dollars, and
