be one Of the most unique railroad lines
in the world, seemingly stretched along
the surface of the water of the strange
lake famed as courosity in every con-
tinent.
Because Of the queer conditions in
this APPARENTLY unnatural body Of wa
ter, most remarkable and original
methods of construction are being en-
ployed. When the water was reached
the workmen were amazed to find that
nearly everything would float on its
surface. One Of the laborers tried to
prove that it would float a crowbar.
The water is so dense that q man can
not sink and he can almost walk on

thin planks rs sufficient to support
whole crew of workinen. The lake
contains 1913 per cent mineral water,
mostly salt and the workmen have
found it difficult to get fresh water to
quench their thirst. The most remark
able part Of the whole work is the dig
ging of an artisan we'll in the midst
of the lake. A bed Of ashes was piled

'7E S'1 cSNs S!I GOOD.

One great good has come out of the
disastrous coal strike, and that is a
more widespread recognition OF the
rights and the needs of the laboring
man.
And this recognition has come not
from one political party. but from all,
not from any one elias or set of men,
but from the most prominnt in all
classes and professions and occu-
pations.
And it has now been the recognition
Of the politician who Is merely seeking
votes. but 1t has been the recognition
Of the statesman whose selfish aims
are never allowed to overbear his love
Of country; and the thinker who turns
the pages of time and reasons from his
tory; of the employer that knows that
his own prosperity II bound up In that
Of his hired helpers; Of the workingman
who before was going forward halting-
ly, lest the times were not right for
insistence on his part-that honest en-
deavor and faithful labor demand and
must have 50 long as liberty endure, a
suitable reward.
The coal barons, Mr.. Morgan chiefest
among them all, may have been con-
WINGED against their will, but they are
convinced that, In the face Of the
power Of public opinion In free Amer
lea, they are as pigmies.
It has been costly Lesson, but per-
haps not too costly. There has been
suffering, such suffering that the NIL
nions of American people who are
miles from the Anthracite region have
| not dreamed Of. There have been ira
gic deaths, more than have been told,
by the pitiless bullets of the uniformed
guards, deaths from poverty and ex.
posture, deaths that may even have
seemed welcome relief from the ills

OlEO BILL PASSED..
Senate Gives House Bill Eight Maiority-Ap
plies Also to Bogus Butter.

Washington, April AT the conclu-
sion of a lively debate, the senate passed
the oleomargarine bill by a vote of 80 to
81. The discussion was largely in the
nature of reinforcement of arguments
previously advanced.
The measure as passed by the senate
differs in some respect from that passed
by the house. 1t provides that oIeomar-
garine and kindred products shall be
subject to all the laws and regulations of
any state or territory, or the District of
Columbia, into which they are trans
ported. whether in original packages or
otherwise and any person who sells CLEO
and furnishes it for the use of others. ex-
cept to his own family who shall mix
with it any artificial coloring that causes
it to look like butter, shall be held to be
a manufacturer, and subject to the tax
provided by existing laws; that upon
oleomargarine, colored 30 as to resemble
butter, q tax of 10 cents a pound shall
be levied, but upon oleomargarine not
colored the tax shall be one-fourth of
one cent per pound that u pom adulterat-
ed butter a tax OF 10 cents pound shall
be levied, and upon all process or re-
novated butter the tax shall be one
fourth of one cent per pound. The man
ufacturers OF process or of adulterated
butter shall pay an annual tax OF 5000,
the wholesale dealers shall pay tax of
$3.50, and the retail dealers tax of $4S
per annum.

ATLANTIC CITY FIRE.
Twelve Hotels and q Score Of Small BUILDINGS
DESTROYED.

Atlantic City. N. j., April 4.-Twelve
hotels and more than score of small
buildings, adjoining the board walk,
which is built along the ocean edge,
were destroyed by fire which swept the
beach front for two long blocks, from
Illinois avenue to New York avenue.
The loss, it is believed, will exceed $780,
600. In this respect the contlagration is
the most disastrous that has ever visited
this city. The loss will be only partly
covered by insurance, as the rate of S
per cent. charged by insurance COM
panies on property here is regarded as
almost prohibitive.
Fortunately no lives were sacrificed.
though probably a dozen persons were
slightly injured and burned during the
progress of the fire. 1t was reported
early in the afternoon that six men had
persisted in the flames, but the rumor
was without foundation.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but
it is said to have started in either Brady's
baths or the Tarleton hotel, which ad-
joins the baths at Illinois avenue and
the board walk.
The city is guarded by a company of
militia, who were requested by the mu-
nicipal authorities to aid the police in
the prevention of looting. About a
dozen men were arrested during the day
for robbery.

guns and carried on running fight for
eight miles, following the track through

BOer reinforcements advanced against
their TANKS, forcing the British troops
to take up a defensible position, which
they hastily entrenched. Fighting en-
sued at close quarters until the Beers
were repulsed on all sides.
"Delarey, Kemp and other leaders
vainly attempted to persuade their men
to renew the action.
Fifteen hun Ired Beers participated
in the engagement, but they had suffered
too heavily and cleared away to the
northwest and south. The British losses
also are severe. The Canadian Rifles
especially distinguished themselves, one
party, commanded by Lieut.. Bruce Car
ruthers, holding it's position until every
man was killed or wounded. Others OF
the forces showed great steadiness, al
lowing the Beers to advance within 200
yards of them and repelling them with a
steady rifle fire."
