BY Rail to Cuba.

They speak in humorous vein of that
Florida railway as 1.-The seagOinsg line, ~
but that is literally what it is. OF its
$50 miles about 40 miles have now
been built. and of this IL miles are
constructed over water and 20 miles
over submerged swamp. When the
| remaining 40 miles are completed the
terminal will be at Key West, whence
great ferry boats will carry whole
trains to Havana, 90 miles away This
will make possible a trip to Havana,
from New York without it being neces-
sary for the passenger to leave the
car in which he starts. The new rail-
road when completed will touch Al of
those little Florida islands called keys
Between some of them-aS for instance
on the two miles of Long Key viaduct
passengers pass out of sight Of land,
the low footholds of the rails offering
no mark against the horizon. And
herein is the marvel: This whole ex-
tension practically is q mans high
way of steel and concrete, built up
where for ages heretofore only winds
and tides have ruled over the shallow
seas. The construction of this rail-
way is the result of the genius and en-
terprise OF Henry NJ. Flasler. who now,
at the age of IS, sees the fulfllmcnt of
a dream he has long entertained. The
road cannot fail to bind this country
and Cuba closer together since it will
bring the island so much nearer to
our shores Commerce will be stimu-
lated and winter travel greatly in
creased

Abraham Lincoln.

Ninety nine years ago this day

| Plans are already well under way for
the celebration of the centenary OF

hence. Probably the chief feature of
that celebration will be the dedication
of the splendid memorial hall and

cept for broad green plaza with the
memorial hall at one end and a simple
shaft at the other to mark the spot on
| which stood Lincoln's birthplace.
Within the museum itself will be
preserved the weather-worn little log
cabin in which Lincoln was born.
Work for the purchase and preser-
walton Of this farm began two years
ago and already 10000 people in al
parts Of the country have made their
contributions, large and small, to the
which will cost about s250,OOO, there is
now about 100000 on hand and TO
swell this sum any amount, however
small, win be gratefully received by

$4,000 for the erection of a statue of
Lincoln to be set up in the court house

about two miles distant from the

Not only in Kentucky, however, but
throughout the whole land year from
this time the Lincoln centenary will
be celebrated. and the more honor

more general the knowledge of his life

his career is lesson for every

VOICES OF THE PRESS.
Gossip-An Everlasting Joy.
louisville Courier-JournalO

A New York evangelist has secured
| a little hour or two of headline fame
by denouncing gossip, and declaring
that he proposes to stamp it out IN MS
consro CATION by having all of the Sos-
sips at mis- home once a week for a
SANDER bee. The late DR.. Kelley s
plan of disgusting the drunkard with
liquor included putting plenty of 1t in
his way as beverage and seasoning
his dinner with it from the oysters to
the coffee. Now and again an inc
briate was found to be so fond of the
taste of alcoholic beverages that the
effort at cure resulted in hilarious
and hideous debauch. Disgusting the
gossip with gossip would be more
difficult task than turning a veteran
thirst into nausea by allopathic doses
OF whiskey. 1t simply could not be
done.

Turn to the literature of any period
from that nearest to the Stone Age to
the Age of Investigation for ample
proof that scandal is an everlasting
JOY to the human race, and as good a
sweetener of tea as it was when Field

as careless as ever of her sisters fame,
but unfortunately Flavia's brother is
not always above telling names and
tales simultaneously, despite maScu-

There are Il great many ''old women

slander-hating man or woman is that
in the end the reputation usually fits
the character. Virtue itself escapes

rot believe the half of what it hears
