WILL USE TELEPHONE.
To Take Place of Telegraph Lines on
 the Illinois Central.

Chicago, Jan. 1S--The Record-Herald to- morrow will say:
 The Illinois Central Railroad will, with in the course of a short while, have all of the principal stations alons its line completely equipped with telephone wires for the use of officials and employees on transmitting orders and messages of the company. Those who have experimented with the system claim for 1t many great advantages over the old telegraph sys- tenn. They assert that by means of the telephonic system the service will be practically revolutionized. They say that with slight improvements which are in- evitable, the telephone will furnish great CT safety for train orders; the cost of train operation will be decreased and the results obtained made vastly better and that no less important is the constant personal contact between officials and employees which the promoters say IS cer- tain to result in a higher grade of ser vice.
 The change on the Illinois Central will Dc gradual The installation of the new system will cost about s100 per mile, or approximately S540,000 to equip the en- tire road. including its main and Yazoo and Mississippi Valley road. Chicago will probably be the starting place. Almost simultaneously. however. work will be commenced at New Orleans and St. Louis. From these centres two wire line will be extended to the principal points until every station in the entire system is included.

CONGRESS IS DISCUSSING
 GREAT SOUTHERN PARK

 It will thus appear that no place of public resort already established can compare With this in the fine of diversified forest attrac- tions To the brain-worried denizen or the city coming to ind nature in her home eacn tree es is friend. The scenery may not be cast m the rough and titanic mould of the great west, but it is pleasing and in many sections 1t approaches the grand and sublime:
 Representatire Brownlow of the First Dis trict of Tennessee is pushing this enterprise in the House of RepresentanyeS, givlns n the title in his bill of the Mckinley National Park and Forest Reserve. and asking TOT an appropriation of ten millions of dollars for the possible purchase of four millions of acres.
 Senator Pritchard of North Carolina Is look ing after the measure in the Senate. His piii contemplates smaller area ana much smaller initial appropriation He grows en, thusiastic when talking of the enterprise and dropping into the vernacular, says that 1t Is better to start in by getting toe hold" His bill gives the enterprise the title of the Ap- palachian Park.
 It Is not proposed here to discuss the merits of the two names. They are both good and appropriate. The advocatesi of inc Mckinley Park hold that it is emnently proper that the enterprise should bear the name or ,he monument to his memory forever. The advo- cates of the Appalachian Park" hold that this appellation is appropriate by reason of it's distinctiveness They contend that this title indicates at once the location and some- thing of the scope of the proposed park
 The secretarys advice is good; the friends of the measure should pull together; they should agree upon the name and the method of procedure.
 Senator Pritchard talked freely with the writer about the measure. He Is lover of nature in all her moods. He spends his va cation upon his farm near Marshall, and in him. the wounded soil. the growing trees. the birds and the beasts of the woods, find a sym pathetic and practical friend
 He says it is not the purpose to sweep away the homes of the settlers in this region. Al homesteads to the extent or three hungreo acres each, with buildings, will be exempt from condemnation. '%- .,
 The matter of jurisdiction of the courts will remain precisely it Is now. The State will make arrests and administer punisbments for all offenses aanst the State. The authorities of the general Government will take cognizance of all offenders and onenses against the United States. .,s.

In China there are no very large manu- factories, most of them employing thirty or fifty men each, and all of the manu- factories producing the same commodity are located on the same street. This
 gives rise to the custom of calling such streets by the name of the commodity manufactured there, instead of by their proper names.
