The Gold In the Ocean.

The fact that sea water contained
gold was first made patent, we believe,
by the observation that the deposit on
the copper plating Of jetty piles in sea
harbors was comparatively rich in the
precious metal. On the estimate that
a ton of sea water contains approx
mately one grain, the yield would
amount to something like 200 tons of
gold per cubic mile and, as the volume
of the worlds ocean is estimated at
4O0,0OO,O00 cubic miles, the total pos
sible yield of gold would be no less
than 100000, 100000 tons-a truly at

ifornia Limited, % per cent Of which
trains traffic is Of first-class; that
this train must make very close
connections in 81. Louis, otherwise
it cannot comprte in the Interstate
traffic. and that by stopping at Ar
kadelphia and other towns this con
ncction could not be made, and
that, inasmuchu as the facilities al
ready afforded are reasonable IA
cilities. as reasonablcness must be
considered in such eases hence the
act is not justifiable and the case
against the railroad company fails.
In referring to the demand for the
stopping OF the limited train at Ar
kadelphia, Judge McCuIloch points
out that the chief reason was that
the regular trains make most OF
the points between Little Rock and
ST. Louis during the night, accord
ing to the allegations in the COM
plant. Commenting on this phase
Of puassenger travel, he says:
Now it will be admitted that
there is, at least, some inconveD-
fences which must attend the travel
er. \ perfect system of railroad
transportation whereby the traveller
can begin his journey at an hou'
which exactly suitshis convenience,
progress with due speed, and arrive
at his destination, wherever that
may be, al reasonable hour or
the day, is scarcely to be expected,
however much it is desired. That
would be Utopian. A train schedule
could not be arranged so as to be-
gin and end every journey in the
day time. What the state may de-
mand from railroad company for
the benefit of the people is rea-
sonable service-facilitie which are
as near perfect as may be reasonably
furnished. considering all the cir
cumstances.'
