Terrific electrical storms have been

Wala Monday in company with In

MOTORS REPLACE OMNIBUS.

The announcement made yesterday that the London General Omnibus company has decided during the next three years to substitute motors for horses on all the main roads will great " interest the people of London. says the London Morning Post. It means that the change from the old omnibus to the motor bus is to be carried out much more rapidly than was contem- plated a few manths ago. What the change will be may be partly inferred from some figures given yesterday by Sir John Pound. He said that at the
 end of 1905 the company had 29 motors
 at work but at the end of 1906 they
 will have no less than 300.
 As the whole change is to take three
 years the increase from 29 to 300 is ev- idently not half of the transformation. What the General Omnibus company
 is doing is a rough index of what the other owners of Omnibuses are either doing or will be compelled to do. They are all moving in the same direction.
 The public has just begun to know the motor bus. On some roads it has not vet made its appearance; on some it is familiar: on few it has already dis placed the horse drawn predecessor but at the end of the present year the company alone will have running 10 times the number of motors it now has ct work. The omnibus is doom- ed and the streets will shortly be crowded with motors.

COUNT BoNPs PLIGHT.

So much has been said about Count Boni de Castellane as to make clear that there is wide interest in the case, says the Philadelphia Ledger. It is not a sentimental interest, but 9 mere cur iosity. There never was the slightest regard for BOni. who came to this country as 9 speculating adventurer, planning to sell his title to which his Individuality was an appurtenance Boni had to go with the title.
 For some time he didn't have much luck. When he went to woo one az gregatiOn of millions the door was shut in his face. but he was not discouraged. He found a packer who paid the bills, and before long he had found an Am erican girl with the price of the title and 9 willingness to invest. A bar gain was struck after some active huckstering, and Boni. for the first time in his not extremely useful life, had money, which he proceeded to throw around with 2 lavishness that would have been vulger even if not the display of wealth acquired in vulgar fashion.
 For years Boni has done his best to exhaust the large resources upon which he had the privilege of drawing. He does not seem to be intrinsically bad, but the misfortune of being equipped with less brains than a rabbit, natur- ally led him into follies. Never had Paris known 9 fool so glitteringly gilded. He was in continual trouble with trades people, although he had to do with as he pleased an income ten times larger than would have satisfied a gentleman. Ie he threw this money away on people whom he was not nor .1V .s4T essaries or Iuxuries he can bear the consequent annoyance without any public sympathy. The public is not so mean as to rejoice over his troubles, but it doesn't care and it laughs in the thoughtless way it might upon seeing a monkey perturbed by contact with a hot chestnut.

A CEMETERY FOR DOGS.

"There is 9 cemetery in London where al! the epitaphs that are written on the tOmbstones are true" says a writer in Technical World Magazine for April 'Of course it is not a ceme- tery for human beings, for when these die, no matter how base the lives they have lived, the inscription on their tOmbs usually have a tone of euphe- mistic eulogy. This is a dogs ceme- tery. It is located in a little seclud- ed spot, right in the heart of the great city. People, even strangers, when they read these epitaphs, often shed tears, for they know that they are true. Mar ble never marks the resting place of a dog that is not worthy of all that is written about him. Here are some of the inscriptions one may read:
 |" 'Curly-He pined for his mistress, and died 9 faithful friend

LUCKY SAYS LOPEZ
 NOBODY WAS KILLED
The Shooter Held to the Grand Jury
 Yesterday.

Santiago Lopez, the man who inau- gurated battle at the Star lodging house last Tuesday night, was before Justice Burnett yesterday on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon. His case was more or less a problem and it was decided to hold him to the grand jury. His bail was fixed at $500. It is thought that before the meeting of the grand jury insanity will develop and
 that the matter will be transferred
 to the probate court.
 Lopez appears to be sound on all other subjects than shooting, and his explanation of his homicidal tendency is as. reasonable as if it had been made by a man concerning whose sanity there can be no question. He said that he is overcome always by the fear that someone is about to do him bodily harm; he thought at the time he start ed the battle that somebody was try ing to take possession of his room. Af- ter he had once commenced shooting he looked upon all mankind as his enemy. After he had been taken into custody he told Josiah Anderson, one of his captors, that his roommate had made an assault upon him, and that it was at him that he fired the first shot. The case of Lopez is very much like that of Pop Corn Joln,'' for years a resident of Phoenix, but now serving a life sentence in Yuma. He too, had been overcome at various times, by desire to shoot at his neighbors without cause. There had been talk of having him arrested for insanity but he seem ed so sane in all other matters that his arrest was put off from day to day until at last he killed two men near ScOttsdale.
 So far as known Lopez has killed mo- body yet, though it was not his fault that a slaughter was averted last Tues day morning.
 Speaking yesterday of that exciting episode, he said very cooIly that it was very lucky that nobody was hurt when bullets were flying around that way.

SENATOR CLAY AND THE RURAL
CARRIERS,

Senator Clay has been sympatheti-
cally looking after the interests of the
rural mail carriers OF the country. He
has secured favorable action in COM
mittee on provision to grant them an
annual vacation of fifteen days, with
full pay during the period. This act of
governmental grace, promoted by Sem
ator Clay, ought to make him a very
popular man with the rural route riders
of the nation.
Apart from the favor this provision
grants to class of public servants who
undergo many hardships in the per-
Torrance of their duties, the incident
shows that Senator Clay is not I'M
mindful Of the details of his Senatorial
duties. He does not feel he is in the
Senate only to consider great constitu-
tional questions affecting the fabric of
the Government, or wide-reaching in
ternational subjects that make for the
antilles or enmities between nations.
He knows that our official system is a
vast one and no part of it is too insig-
nificant for the consideration of Sem
ator who would safeguard the consis-
tency and success of national admins
tration.
In this last action Senator Clay has
sought recognition and bounty for
most deserving and indispensable class
of humble servitors of the public and
they will be enthusiastically grateful
to him for it.-Atlanta News.
