On Saturday last, the 18th, Lawyer
w. Calvin Chase, editor of the Wash
ington Bee, came to the city in re
sponse to an invitation from the State
Campaign Committee, to speak to the
Republicans of Atlantic City and
county. Mr.. Chase's appearance at
the famous Fitzgerald's Auditorium
proved that the war-like editor IS not
a stranger in these parts. 1t was
twenty minutes before he could stop
shaking hands and gain his way to the
rostrum where was waiting him Chair
man Joseph Sauls, of the Campaign
Committee
A reception committee from the
Third Ward, appointed to wait upon
the editor. escorted him from his tram

and the Hon. Harry Bacharach, the
city's postmaster, who IS the Repub--

Mr Chase on the progrom. The gen

part the colored men had contributed
as citizens to the welfare of the city
and to the part the colored voter had
played in sustaining the Republi-
can party of New Jersey. Mr.. Bach
arach made special mention OF the et-

Curious Antlelpations.

Many peculiar anticipa tons have
been cited against patent applications.
At one time a congressman took the
patent Office lock invented by one of
his rural constituents. The lock was
an exact copy of lock figured in
price on Locks" showing the lock
used on a gate Of ancient Thebes, thou
sands Of years before Christ. The con-
gresham, after examining the illustra
ton which was shown him by one OF
the officers, exclaimed that he didn't
care who that fellow in Thebes was
be certainly stole 1t from his constitu-
ent. On another occasion an applica.
ton for a patent was filed for flower
basket whose construction correspond
ed in detail with the Scriptural descrip-
ton Of the ark in which Moses was
placed in the bulrushes. which we are
told In the second chapter Of Exodus
was an ark of bulrushes daubed with
slime and with pitch. This is also
probably the first recorded instance of
a REINFORCED concrete structure.-Sci.

the machine struck the soft place in
the thoroughfare and slid into the ditch,

pass the team again, he was given but

BEING A ROAD HOG.

Vermont contemporaries have been
taking up the subject of the automobile
on the public thoroughfare and have
been urging drivers of automobiles not
to be road hogs" which is very good
advice, indeed; but it does not apply
to merely one class of users of the
roads. There are road hogs" who drive
horses also; and the writer had occa-
sion recently to see an exhibition of
hoggishness, plain selfshness, itself,
when an automobilist with due regard
for the rights of the team gave warn
ing signal that he wished to drive past
the team which was travelling at a
walk over a newly-made gravel road
For some time the driver of the team
paid no attention to the signal, whose
meaning could not have been mistaken;
but when the automobile, driven slow
ly, came close behind the wagon, the
driver grudgingly refined his horse
few inches to the right, but scarcely
leaving the worn wheel tracks in tbs

beyond anything that the founders of

In commenting on the speech by Vice
President I. +. Byrnes before Barre and
Montpelier citizens, the Mortified News
includes the Grand Trunk railroad in
Byrnes' list of Vermont railroads as
having mo particular influence in the
railroad world which undoubtedly was
not intended by Mr.. Byrnes, nor so un-
derstood by his hearers, because, in the
first place, no one considers the Grand
Trunk Vermont railroad although it
has Vermont subsidiary in the Central
Vermont, and, in the second place, no
sane person who knows anything about
railroads would deny that the Grand
Trunk is power in the railroad world.
The Grand Trunk is mighty big fac
tor and growing bigger. OF the former
fact no one knows better than Mr..
Byrnes, whose own system is now fight
ing tooth-and-nail against the big Can
adam company; and it would be fatu-
Gus for Mr.. Byrnes to come before an
intelligent audience and say his rival
was not power in the railroad world,
for he would be laughed down immedi-
ately. What Mr.. Byrnes did refer to
as railroads without power were strict
ly Vermont corporations, which includ-
ed his own Montpelier & Wells River
railroad, company which, he readily
admitted, was a weakling in the rail-
road world. There may, of course, be.
differences of opinion regarding Mr..
Byrnes' right to make such assertion
and as to the proprieties of the state
ment from another railroad man; but
his evident classification ought to be
clearly distinguished in any event. The
Grand Trunk was not included.

The Law of the Road.

The Automobile club of Vermont is
making a commendable effort to give as
much publicity as possible to act No.
l4l of the last legislature, relating TO
the law of the road says the Brattle-
boro Reformer, Automobiles and horse
men alike will do well to read its pro-
visions which are as follows:

or person operating an automobile Or
motor vehicle, shall, when ii is safe and
practicable so to do, seasonably turn
such horse, other draft animal or vehicle
to the right of the center of the travelled
part of such highway so as to pass
without interference. A person driving
or riding horse or other draft animal

Woman, the Inferior.

Woman is nearer the savage state
than man. Her only function is to bear
children.Prof Sargent of Harvard
She is, nothing but a woman with q
voice that's soft and sweet.
Making sacred all she touches, cen the
dust beneath her feet,
With laugh that's sweetest music and
a sigh that's sweeter vet,
With look that makes you wonder
and remember and forget
Just woman who is pure,
With faith serene and sure
Who has made you somewhat better
since the moment when you met.
She is nothing but woman, OF lower
type than man,
Her development restricted, fashioned on
poorer plan;
Learning little as the ages and the icons
roll away.
Made to serve a single purpose and re-.
main unthinking clay;
just woman in whose eyes
All that's true and tender lies.
just a woman claiming graces such as
angels only may.
She is nothing but woman who when
days OF trouble come
When the friends Of fairer moments turn
their faces and are dumb
Hovers near with tender Chances and
with words that soothe and cheer;
just woman, hoping bravely when you
weakly yield to fear;
Just woman clinging fast
TO love that at the last,
Shall become your sweet salvation. as
the farther shores appear.
