Speaking of eleetric steel railways Mr. Kdson the great inventor was asked, the other day on what, in his opinion, was the practical speed limit on the horizon of electrical locomotion and he answered, "perhaps 130 miles an hour." He made at Menlo Iark one of the first important experiments in electrical railways, exhibiting one in Is Si that carried ears 40 miles per hour. But before we come to moving heavy trains by electricity, to which they are serious, though not insuperable, obstacles, he believes that we will shoot mail through the country by some electrical device, as it were through a tube.

Local notice one The World's Fair. The Inter Ocean which is the leaJln paper of Chicago, says that two things are now necessary to make the World Fair a success.

1. One fare round trip railway rates at present no more than usual summer excursion rates are offered, 2. Closing the Fair on Sunday. The managers have wounded the conscience of two or three million of the most in telligent and best portion of the Xa tion by refusing to respect the Ameri can Sabbath, and have angered many others, who care comparatively little for Sabbath observance, by violating contract and disobeying a plain statute of the Nation. That is plain talk from a big Chicago Daily.

It may be too late now to cor rect the evil. The Fair itself is the marvel of everybody. It has gone be it yond the high expectations of even its projectors in grounds, in buildings, and in exhibits brought by the nations of the earth. Those who have travelled most and seen most are the most en thusiastic in praise of it. Its like in extent, in beauty, in variety of exhibit, was never seen before, and probably will hot be for generations to come That is what those say who go and see and come away.

But Sunday opening is a flat failure, and should be abandon ed. The Silver Question. We have all along been impressed with the idea that the silver question was a mere cloak used to disguise the real cause of our present business depression. While we would' not object to the repeal of the silver purchasing clause of the Sherman Act we pro test against 'the tarriff for revenue only, people trying1 to conceal from the people the legitimate results of their policy on the business interests of the country. It is as we have said before the spectre of free trade that now 'haunts the manufacturers, and until tnat vanishes they will not stock up at protection wages to sell at free trade rates.

Let the incoming congress assure the country that our wool growers, manufacturers and miners will not be brought into competition with the pauper labor of Europe and soon again the fires in our furnaces and mills will illuminate the country and the smile of the working man once more brighten American homes, now darkened by forebodings. As a silver dollar will go as far at present with a working man as a gold dollar, it will be difficult for the party in to satisfy the country that silver alone is causing what the President in his proclamation, calls "the present perilous condition," or that the repeal of the Sherman Act will avert what he terms "impending danger and distress." What American manufacturers want to is, whether the goods manufactured now under the McKinley law will have to be sold in the future under a tariff for revenue only. Until they get some assurance of this, we may look for darkened furnaces and motionless machinery. The Boston Wool Market. From the Boston Commercial Bulletin.

The wool market is still in a very unsatisfactory state, and is likely to remain so until congress finally settles both the tariff and the currency questions. Uncertainty is killing all trade. Money has been slightly easier since the president called congress together. The stringency has, however, been only slightly relieved. It has not been cured.

The result is that the West, not only Wyoming but Ohio, has begun to ship wool to prominent houses in I5os-ton without asking for advances. This naturally aids the demoralization, as the price of these wools is not limited and the western owners are anxious for money. It is not a bad thing for the Boston houses, of course, especially with the new commission system. The tariff still checks sales of cloths, and while it may be said that the tightness of the money market presses, hardest on growers, the certainty of a tariff change presses the hardest on the manufacturers. The mills are not in the best of positions.

They are not only receiving new orders for light weights, but they are receiving cancellations on heavy weights. The lack of new orders is due to the tariff, the cancellations to tight money. There are days when the cancellations have been more numerous than the orders. From the Mohawk valley comes the report that buyers of wool underwear are asking for ninety days further extension on their bills. This has amounted to a cancellation of orders where the goods were not already manufactured.

Machinery is leing shut down and the product of American woolen mills will be cut down proportionately. The people must be clothed somehow between the present date and the arrival of the new tariff, and clothed in American cloths. The more courageous of American manufacturers will go ahead, and it is they who are buying wool today. The price of American wool is now ko near the free-trade basis, indeed in some cases below it that (unless the woolen industry is dealt the same savage blow which hns fallen ul ready upon the growers in anticipation) mills owning wool at to-day's flgtiro arc certainly making a wife investiinent.

Waring savs Disease is not a consequence of life it is due to unnatural conditions of living neglect, abute, want." Dr. Stephen Smith, on the same sulject, "Manisbcrn to health and long life; disease is unnatural, death, except firm old age, is accidental, and both are preventable by human agencies." This is almost invariably true of death resulting from heait disease. Careless over-exertion, intemperate use of tea, coffee, tobacco, alcoholic or other stimulants are generally the causes of this difficulty, and indifference to its progress results in sudden death, or long sickness ending in death. By the newspapers it can be seen that many prominent and hundreds oi persons in private life die frcm heart disease every day. If you have any of the following symptoms: shortness of breath, palpitation, irregular pulse, fainting and smothering spells, pain in shoulder, side, or arm, swollen ankles, begin treatment immediately for heart disease.

If you delay, the consequences may be serious. For over 20 years Dr. Franklin Miles, the eminent specialist, has made a profound Btudy of heart disease, its causes and cure, and many of the leading discoveries in that direction are due to him. His New Heart Cure is absolutely the only reliable remedy for the cure of heart disease, as is proved by thousands of testimonials from grateful persons who have usedjt. James A.

Pain, editor of the Corry, Leader, states: "After an apparent recovery from three months of la grippe, I fell on the street unconscious from heart disease. In one month from that time I was unnble to walk across my room, and my pulse beat from 86 to 116 times a minute. I then used Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure, and at once became stronger. After using six bottles I was able to work as usual and walk a mile every day, my pulse ranging from 68 to 60.

Spencer writes for The Globe-Democrat a paper on this subject. It is so full of the flavor of ripe strawberries, the hum of bees and the perfume of-honey and roses as to make one long for the fullness of life that comes enly from existence passed in the open air. Mrs. Spencer believes that it would be for the improvement of the race all round if women and girls went into flower and small fruit culture and lived more oat-doors. She says: Our homes will be more abounding In health, and society will be the better for womanly independence.

A woman who fears to do what Is economical and wholesome and invigorating helps in degenerating the stock. If I were now a young girl, I would go to the Pacific States and engage in horticulture. I would have my berry gardens and my bees and assert my independence. I see no reason why a girl should crowd her way into office employment. What she needs for the full development of her nature is the open air and open field.

Floriculture is peculiarly our natural industry. I do not say that men are out of place in this branch of gardening, but I do say that women and flowers go well together, and that they should undertake to control the greenhouse industries and the flower gardens in the suburbs of cities. In England laundry work is passing into the hands of women, where it belongs. Horticulture also belongs to us. I said a young woman would do well to go to the Pacifls coast that is, it is always to be expected that the farther west we go the larger the freedom and the less the bondage of prejudice.

It would not be necessary, however, for the women and girls who wished to engage in flower and small fruit culture to go to the Pacific states. The business would be eminently successful if carried on wisely in the vicinity of any of the older cities of the Union. The only inducement to go to the far west would be the fact that women have more rights in the new states and are not bound down by conventionalism to the extent they are in the older portions of the country, Two Poems. There is not much encouragement for poets these days. Yet singularly enough the high class magazines are publishing very little poetry of real merit.

In too many cases an insignificant or silly idea, is lost in a mass of verbiage that gives one "that tired feeling." Not long ago a lady whose poems will doubtless be read as loug as the English language exists submitted a poem to the editor of a well known magazine. It was declined politely, the editor courteously explaining that he had so many really first class poems on hand he did not care to add to their number. "Why don't you publish one of them occasionally?" was the reply. The strongest short poem that has appeared recently is the following by Bret Harte under the caption ate:" "The sky is clouded, the rocks are bare. The spray of the tempekt is white in air, The winds are out with the waves at play.

And I shall not tempt the sea today. "The trail Is narrow, the wood is dim, The panther clings to the arching limb, And the lion's whelps are abroad at play. And I shall not join in the chose today." But the ship sailed safely over the sea. And the hunters came from the chase in glee. And the town that was bulldcd upon a rock Was swallowed up in the earthquake shock.

By the way, Thomas Bailey Aldrich took the same subject for one of his early and best poems. It will be interesting to compare the styles of these two foremost living American poets. They are both gems. Mr. Aidrich's poem on fate or destiny is as follows: Three roses pale as moonlight, each weighed down With its own loveliness, were in a florist's window in a certain town.

The first a lover bought. That night it lay at rest, Like snow on snow, on beauty's breast. The next, no less virginal utid fair, Shrunk in thu tangled masses of a harlot's hair. The third a widowed with her new grief made wild, Pressed in the icy palm of her dead child. A Little Seasonable Advice.
