The most remarkable feature of
the recent congressional election in
the 7th district in New York City is
that Lessler,, young man with little
or no money should have defeated
Perry Belmont, a millionaire with
unlimited capital at his command.
Lessler made house-to-house can
vass with telling results. This added
to the fact that Croker was against
Belmont aided in bringing about the
result.

In 1870, when the government of
Japan decided to construct railroad
connecting the old and the new capi-
tal-Kyoto and Tokyo-it accepted
British assistance for the Inaugural
ton of the work. Although the pro-
iect was devised to connect the capl-
tails, the necessity for having rail
way communication between the
present capital and its seaport, Go-
kohama. and also between the for
mer capital and its seaport, Kobe,
caused these two lines to be built
before carrying out the plan for the
main trunk line. The Satsuma rebel
lion, which broke out in 1876, caused
a suspension of activity i'll railway
construction, and it was not until
1890, 20 years after the inception of
the plan, that the railway connecting
the former and the present capital
was opened for traffic.
These first lines were constructed
and equipped by the British, and of
course followed British standards
throughout, and on the main island.
where these roads are, no other type
than that of the English engine was
even thought of for many years. In
kiushu, the large island at the south,
the first railroads were built about
1851, and in the IIokkaido, at the
north, at nearly the same time, the
Germans constructing and cquipping
the former, while the latter were in
charge of American engineers, who
procured all their supplies from the
United States. Three standards of
railway equipment were thus intro
duced into the empire, the British
having the advantage of being first
in the field and Of being established
in the island. which, both from it's
size and from its excluding nearly

Of the empire, would require much
the greatest mileage.
There was no marked change in
the conditions thus introduced into

manufacture are in daily use in Ja-
pan, where the entire number of all
kinds is not far above 1,2OO. Consid-
ering the great advantage which Eng
land had at the start, this is a very
good showing indeed, and it is es
pecially creditable in view of the
prejudices American manufacturers
have had to overcome.
OF the private lines, the Kiushu and
the Sanyo railways are next in inn
portance to the Nippon, and these
were the first after the Hokkaido to
order locomotives from America. A
representative of the Sanyo railway
stated that the principal reasons for
preferring American engines are the
lower price and shorter time re-
quired for filling orders. He added
that, at first, the engineers being ac-
cuStomed to the English locomotives,
and not understanding the manage
ment of the American engine, found
that the latter consumed more coal;
but since the drivers have become
accustomed to the use and treatment
of the American locomotive, they
find no material difference in this
respect. The tire of the American
locomotive has proved more durable,
and they recognize advantages in the
ht-feeding lubricator, the air
valves for the cylinders, and the
more comfortable drivers cabin. On
the other hand, the boilers are more
apt TO leak than in the English en-
gine.
On Kiushu island, about 80 German
locomotives were supplied at first,
but the use of the German engine in
Japan practically stopped there, as
very few have been brought from
that country since, and the small

The Smallest State In Europe.
The Italian republic of San Ma
rino, situated on Monte Titano
among the Apennines, took its rise in
the sixth century of our era. The
founder was Dalmatian soldier
named Marinus, who in the reign of
Diocletian fled from Rome and re-
tired with several companions to
Monte Iitano, where they carried on
the trade of stonecutters. At the
accession of Constantine, Marinus
was ordained a priest. and his re-
ligious zeal led to his being styled
saint during his life, and to his can
onization after death. The birthday
of Marinus is celebrated every year
on September 3. The independence
of the little state dates from the
tenth century. The government of
the republic consists of "A grand coun-
ell of 60 members, of whom 20 are
mobiles, 20 are burghers and 20 are
government is in the palace, which,
with the cathedral and the ancient
citadel, is situated on the top of 4
mountain. On lower spur rests the
town of San Marino itself. Through
out the little territory, which is we'll

oughs. The supreme office is vested
in two captains-regent, who hold the
presidency of the senate and the adj
ministration of the country; one
takes charge of the city, the other
times they were called consuls or
gonfaloniers. The artillery of the
state consists of two small mortars,
which are used at elections and on
holidays. From the six candidates
