4 SHIP OF THE DESERT,

All the inventors are not in Connec-
ticut One of them is in England, and
he is having made a ship on wheels
with which he hopes to take the place
of the camel on the Desert of Sahara
as a carrier of dispatches and express
parcels. He calls his invention a.
motorless motor and according to his
description 1t consists of a frame -
feet long, 10 feet wide at the front end
and feet wide at the rear, composed Of
IA inch steel tubing. At the four cor
ners of the frame are wheels 4 feet in
diameter, with iron tires inches broad,
so that the wheels will not sink into
the sand. At the forward end of the
steel frame Is four inch bamboo mast,
fourteen feet high, fitted with silk
leg-of-mutton sail, having one hundred
square feet sail area. The sail can be
hoisted and controlled entirely by the
driver as perfectly as the skipper
controls small sailing boat. The
mast is strongly braced with wire rope,
and there are also braces of wire rope
under the steel framework, so that it
cannot sag under the greatest strain.
The brake lever at the drivers seat
connects with wire ropes which run on
pulleys, connecting the forward wheels
in such a manner that a twist of the
lever checks the speed or brings the
''car" to a standstill BY means of the
trade winds-which in the desert can
be depended upon six months in the

The New York Evening Post says: In
our real estate columns yesterday in
reference to the sale by Mr.. Carnegie
to Mr.. Burden of certain lots in the
Highlands" of Fifth avenue, we spoke
of Mr.. Carnegies own house, which is
to be a Christmas gift to his little
daughter" This item had been printed
before, and we took it to be an undis-
puted fact. We now learn that it has
no foundation whatever, and that moth
ing could be less in harmony with the
ideas of Mr.. and Mrs. Carnegie than
that their daughter should now, or ever,
be burdened with great wealth. Least
of all is she to be taught while in youth
that she has great expectations or
any expectations at all beyond a mod
crate competence. Neither of her par
ents deems great wealth a desirable
possession for the morning of life, or for
any part Of life, except as it may be en-
plOySu IOf the ADVANCEMENT OL the nu-
man race.
This is decidedly interesting If this
is the way the daughter of one Of the
richest men in the world is to be treated
she is going to miss a great deal. She
will grow up without the full realization
of her superiority" to other folks She
will not feel that aversion to "the COM
mon people" which her fathers money
entities her to feel She may get the
idea that it is not the main object of
life to have a good time, regardless of
those who are having a bad time. And
she may even adopt her fathers queer
notion that it is a disgrace to die rich
Just think of girl whose father is
worth three or four hundred millions
being brought up not to worship money.
Verify, these are queer times.

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
VIII you please inform me if it is
right for the so-called Humane Society
to take from hard working people their
only means of making an honest liv-
ing? 1t has been done by the officers
of said Humane Society without MAX
ing an investigation or notifying us
what was required of us. Now do YOU
think that the Humane Society's agents
are allowed to cause the women to suf-
fer, arranging It so that we cannot get
the necessaries of life, causing us to
so at starvation's door, causing sick
ness from the effects of this act? If
so then l must have made q mistake in
the definition of the word humanity.
always supposed that to be humane
was to alleviate distress, but the way
we have been used the word humane
is to distress people, especially women
who are trying to get an honest living
and living or trying to live an upright
Christian life, On Friday, December IL,
the officers came and took away all our
living by taking from us three COWS,
one calf and one horse. Each of these
animals excepting the horse we raised
ourselves and made pets of them We
always gave them good feed of hay and

grain in winter and good pasture and
grain in summer. We never misused
our animals. They always had fresh
water the year round. We were not
notified by our agent where we made
mistake so we could rectify the mis-
take but he drove them off unceremon-
lousiy, leaving US in severe storm and
no means of getting supplied either to
make our butter and deliver it to our
customers and no way to get things to
subsist on, thereby causing sickness of
one of the family. Is this humanity?
If so God have mercy on his poor chill
dren. Are the children Of this world
to suffer in this way at the hands of
the so-called Humane Society without
just cause, especially women who have
no man to help them, father being dead
and no brother to look after affairs?
Thus 1t has been with us. We feel un-
justly treated at the hands of our per-
secutors, the officers Of the so-called
Humane Society. From a sufferer

HORKING 1AM CITY.

They are having what they call an
investigation in Kansas City, and some
ingenious and significant testimony has
been given by J. NJ. Afford, a sidewalk
and his partner, in a contract to lay a
sidewalk on Cleveland avenue, had
built sixty-fve feet of walk with a bar
rel of cement, although the specifica-
tons they were working under required
that they should use barrel in every
thirty-four feet. President Shelley
asked him if he didn't think that was
dishonest. He cynically answered: Il
call it getting next to the inspector"
The city sidewalk inspector, he assert
ed, knew how the job was being done;
and he appeared to think that if city
official conspired with a contractor to
rob the taxpayers the contractors con-
duct should not be considered disrepu-
table. He stoutly insisted, with an air
of injured virtue, when questioned on
that point, that he always honestly car
ried out his contracts with everybody
except the city.
Unfortunately Mr.. Afford isn't as
singular as he ought to be. He isn't
the only man who works the city"
when he can. The city is considered
fair prey by many men who are fairly
honest in private transactions.

TRAP ING.

OF professional trapping 1 have little
to say at this time. Professional trap
pers will continue to trap as long as
the public demands furs, or until the
fur-bearing animals are extinct, or so
rare that it no longer pays to trap
them. The public at large sees only
the furs, which it wants: it does not
see the terror, the prolonged, excrucia-
ting agony ofgthe animals whose lives
1t demands. All that took place long
way off and months ago, so why should
any one trouble himself about that?
