FAST TRAINS
New York Times.

Speaking of boastfulness born of pride In
home" says Hamilton w. Mabie. '.I was
once in a smoking compartment with man
from New York another from Chicago. and a
third from New Jersey. The New Yorker
was -boasting of the Empire State. Express,
which he said went so fast that the telegraph
poles slipped past seemingly as close to-
gether as the teeth in a fine comb.
. That's nothing said the man from Chi
cago. There is train from my city to Mil
waukee. Nothing like it. I started to cross
bridge on the road and heard the train
coming. Having great presence OF mind
made leap in the air and the train was
gone when I came down.
That's fast train,' said the New Jersey
citizen. The Jersey Central fiier is equally
fast, but makes better time, because it starts
fast. Ny wife was on the platform to bid me
goodby in Jersey City. I opened the window
to kiss her and by the good name of the
land Of mosquitos kissed strange woman

insure himself against sickness and old
age in some one of the many companies.
The attitude of communities in which
these sanatoria are located was very hos
tile at first, but their beneficial and edu-
rcational effects were soon appreciated.
They increase business, bring numbers OF
health seekers to live in the village and
stimulate all efforts at better sanitary
care OF the village. Rutland, Mass, the
site of the state sanatorium, was bitterly
opposed to it, but they say it has been a
great boon to that pretty, little New Eng
land town, enabling them to put in water,
light. and sewage systems Such is the
care given each consumptive that the
walls, floors and furniture of these cot
tages are free from the germs and hence
do not carry the disease, while the homes
from which the patients come abound in
the germs.
It may be asked: II out door treatment
is all that is given, why cannot a patient
be cured at home 1t is because he can
not be watched and instructed as in a
place set apart from him. Regularity Of
food, proper cooking and proper discipline
cannot be insisted upon at home. The

THEFT OF EARNS !"
oooooocoo oooccoooooeen Observation-Disclosures
The Era.

1 & RI .. 4rfE F. d.
In the assumption of arms by the Ameri-
cans there can be no halfway course.
The British. colleges cannot grant arms to
foreigner, therefore we must rely upon
our descent from some family entitled to
bear them, and such descent must be
proved. and proved conclusively-no
'tacking on" process is available, and no
American college of heraldry can grant
you the right. It can only ascertain If
the right is already yours by making
proper researches with citations to au-
thorlt1es therefor. The name you bear
mas nothing whatever to do with the sub
ject. It may have been assumed, I will
conclude by saying that in order to use
arms In America, you must be the le-
g1tlmate descendant in male line of per-
son to whom arms were granted, or to
whom the same were confirmed, or from a
family to whom the same were allowed by
certain usages above specified, and all
this must be established beyond a rea-
sonable doubt.
You have no right to use the arms OF
your mother, your grandmother's or Of
your wife's family-nor has your wife any
right use those of her father-unless,
as an heiress, they are quartered with
your own, or, for the purpose of decora-
tton, tmpaled.
honless you CONFORM TO tnese rules you
are appropriating something which does
not belong to you, and you are not only
acting unfairly in depriving others Of an
honor which should belong to them alone,
but in the language of "X,' you are COM
mitting theft.
Very few persons have any conception
of the labor involved in making up pedi-
gree such as would be approved by the
Herald's college in England.
TT is narfectlV trup that the cO11ope in
England is ancient in it's methods, and
is not, in the opinion of many, by any
manner Of means as capable of doing good
genealogical work as are private indi-
viduals, but at the same time, il you use
arms, you should use them according to
the law Of arms, and the Herald's col
lege promulgates the law.

S35O,oo0 FOR BACHELORS
London Exnress.


An Edinburgh gentleman has struck an
entirely new line in benefactions by sett-
ing aside sum of 10000 to provide for
the relief of INDECENT bachelors and wild
overs.
The benefits are not to be limited to
persons of any particular religious denom-
ination or belief. The most important
qualifications are that the lives of those
who benefit by the scheme shall have been
characterized by sobriety, morality, and
industry, and that they shall not be less
than 55 years Of age. j.. ~,.s - ssga,,
The donor lays down no hard and fast
rule as to the form of working arrange
ments of the benefaction, but suggests
that the first three benefciaries shall be
either natives Of or residents in the
county of Edinburgh and that there
after one shall be chosen from each county
in Scotland in alphabetical order until the
requisite number is reached.
He also suggests that land shallsbe pur-
chased within ten miles Of Edinburgh, and

Chevalier Du Portal was one of the four
French engineers engaged by Franklin and
Deane while they We're dickering for the
French alliance. He was appointed colonel
in the American army, and while the patriots
were encamped at Whitemarsh he wrote a
long letter to Count de St. German, the
French minister of war, urging the jparticipa-
tion Of his native country in the revolutionary
movement and presenting some marvellous
reasons therefor. He made strong argu- 1
ment Of the poverty of the colonies In all
lines. 1T will be ages he writes. ''before
America would be in a condition to send out
a fleet to make conquests.
Such are the Americans. he continues, that
they move without spring or energy, without
yigor, and without passion for cause in
which they are engaged, and which they fol-
low only as the impulse of the hand that first
put them in motion directs. There is an hun
dred times more enthusiasm for this reyolu-
tion in any one coffee house in Paris than in
all the thirteen provinces united"
Du Portal didn't live long enough to see
his propheses fulfilled, but he did manage
to survive revolution in his own country,
conducted in the Frenchiest of French fash
ions. He spent the last years Of his life on
his plantation, part of which is now Bridge
port, Pa. He scld it in 1901 and sailed for
France. but died on the passage out.

take a sympathetic interest in his i'm
provement and daily life After learning
the proper regime at the sanatorium the
patients go home and continue the same
life. Twenty-Five per cent are cured; IS
per cent are benefited, but have to get
new occupations and be careful Of them
selves always. About 5 per cent of the
number go back to their former mode Of
life and re1apses are inevitable.
. There is a universal awakening to
the danger and necessity Of care of tuber-
cu1osis. Every nation is building its
sanatoria and commissions are being ap-
pointed to report on the disease. SMALL
pox has been controlled and its ravages
lessened; leprosy has been stamped out
of whole countries; hydrophobfa has been
eradicated from Vienna, Berlin, London
and Sweden. Tuberculosis can be treated
in the same way. The two great points
that should be impressed upon every one
In this city are consumption is contagious
and consumption is durable.
