I.ako Sharp in Detroit Froo Prei.
All roads lead to Iiome, but never autil a
few lav ; did a I'uiliasn pl-o car travel
O'l any of Uinm. Tlio first I' a 11 man apocial
traiu for Koine left Calais on Friday, ' nit,
kliort'y aftor 2 o'clock, and it rust-Led Home
on Funday an hour and a half ahead of time,
after traveling 1,4) miles without being a
minute Lite at any of the stations at which it
wns booked to stop. 1 ha tliroo palace cars,
Australia, Caetalia and Ucrmania, woru built
at Detroit, and put together and fnrnixho.1 at
Derby, no tli longest continuous trip ovor
nnwlft in turopn may fairly ho Wined an
Aiiglo-Aimtrican -nterprino. Those cr ara
destiurxl to run roiitiiiuiimdy between lloino,
N'aplcn and Beg-io, and as they had to i
taken to Home, Mr. II. H. Hoherts, uriuau
muiiAKcr of tlio Pullman comaiiy,doU)tTuino;l,
if possible, to run tlio three cjth through as a
spwoial train, taking any passengora who carol
to fro a la 1'ailmin. Tlio difficulties which
Mr. IUjlrtn had to contend with wore ex
ouodiugly gieat. In the lirnt plnoo, it was by
no meana certain that tho Piiliinniis, which
are much larger than ordinary carriage,
wonld go thrnngh eomo of the tunnels on tho
Italian lines. It would bsve cainod considera
ble annoy&nco if, when tho train watt going
at flf'y miles an hour, it wan suddenly (Uncov
ered that tiie particular tunnbl Uirough
which It was going was to rmall. Trivial as
such incidents may seem to an outsider, they
have to be Liken into account by the careful
railroad man. No right-minded person domrea
to tmab up other people's tunnels. If thero
is auyih.ng an Italiau railway manager loven,
it is a nice tunneL Along the Apon nines
thoro is a tuanel every fow roda. There are
tnnuela of all Biztis, from the eeven miles
.Mount Cenis, to tho one which is like tho flash
of black lightning. Hie moat captious pornou
would find no fault with tho assortment of
tunnels these enterprising Italians provide for
their patrons. '1 nnueln come high, especially
tuose at tho top of the mountain, but tho Higb
talians must have them, and consequently they
would object to having any of the luisido fres
coing taken ofT by a Pullman train. Another
matter for consideration was tho curves. The
lo g Pullman car doea not like a short carve.
Ilis.ory telis us that 01100 when a bridge over
a Swiws chasm was thought to be unsafe, tho
llighpanjaudrum of the canton hit on a hap
py method of testing its stability, lie got all
the people the bridge would crrry to nfciud on
it, and as it did not go down it was prononuced
safe. In like manner Mr. Roberts might have
swung his train around the curves, aud if it
did not break or run off tho track the curve
question might have been dismissed. However,
ho did not adopt this enterprising method, but
took the slower plan of going over the ground
anil making measurements and calculations,
and final. y it was agreed that the l'ulim in
would go over the road without straightening
a curve or taking any of the decorations oil a
tunneL
There weroothor difficulties in the way that
roouired some diplomacy to get over. The
omVialrt of Home of the foreign railways were
at firot averse to allowing any person to run a
special passenger train over their roads. Hut,
at last, ail obstacles were overcome, and Mr.
lioberU turned his whole atlenti-ju towards
letting everything in perfect order for the
trip. The cars were taken over from London
to Calais by steamer, and placed on the rails
in readiness a few days before tho start was
made, Tho weilher throughout the trip was
all that could bo dtMirad. Tiio pascengcrs
were mostly from England, several gentlemen
having their wives with thorn, atid to theso
were assigned tlio private state-rooms with
which each car is provided. 15y general con
sent the center Pullman was used as a smok
ing car, although each car contains a smoking
The train consisted of tho engine, a luggage
Tan, the three Pullmans, another luggage -van
and, last, a sort of gnurd'a car. It loft Calais
at about 2:o0 on the -''d, aftor having leen an
obiect of great curiosity to a large crowd of
sight-seers who coliec'ed at tho station and
along the raUwav. M. Thouin and M. Dele
le,ue, of the Northern of France railway,
came on at Calais. At Boulogne, which was
reiched in about three-quarters of an hour,
other officials joined the train, while a nnmber
more got on board at Amiens. When Paris
was re.iched, tho train was takon over part of
the Circular railway to the Lyons etaTion,
whore all got out at :W, to demoli-h a diuner
that bad been telegraphed for. If tho passen
gers bad any money left with which to con
tinno their journey, it inns'' have been through
some oversight on the part of the person who
runs that restaurant He curt dnlv made a
rigorous effort to scoop in the wealth of tho
crowd. Shortly after Paris was left the cars
were quickly transformed from day to nia;ht
coaches. Many of the railway officials loft at
Paris, but others joined, so the number in the
train was always about the same.
A stop of a few minutes was made at Dijon
at 5 in the morning, aud again at Macon for a
cup of coffee. Tho engineer of the looomotive,
who was interviewed hero as to how ho found
the cars run, said that he novor was in charge
of a train that behaved so welL He seemed to
think that with ordinary care the Pullman
might be taught to inn alone. At Culoz,
among the snow "overed mountains, a stop was
msde at 10:3(1 for breakf-st; after this meal the
dnlighted pansengers desired The Detroit Free
Press to announce to the world that a Culoz
breakfast stands nnriv&lcd. It wad snmptuons;
lack of space prevents the enumeration of all
its merits, but these will he toui-hed up some
other time. Modauo was reached at :!:;-r, and
besides chanMng Io(omotiva the time of Paris
w.i.s exchanged for that of Rome. Very appro
prir.toly. tho stout en:;i;-e 'Hsnmbal" took
hold of tho train to l?a:! it over the Alps. Th;s
engine had fou- small wheels on each sido,
aud was evidently constructed more for
stretigth than for t-pe.sl As Hannibal never
e::b-red Itome, neither does this engine. It is
Hati-l'el with crossing nd recrossing tho Alps,
an occupation in which tho spirit of tho origin
al Hannibal probably de'ights, unless, like the
ghost of Hamlet's father, he is condemned to
(kirigiitly walk these bights, in which case ho,
no donbt grumbles considerablv.
Old Har.niiisl took ns through tho depths of
the Mout Cenis tunnel in twenty-six minutes,
and at '.::i0 Saturday night the train passed into
the grat glass arch of the Turin railway sta
tion, "the lnrgest station in tho world," a dis
tinction which it shares with about a score of
other stations.
He jo President Tilnmenthal and Assistant
General Manager lUtti, of the Aha Italia rail
road joined the party.
Artor leaving Tiirlii, we once more "pitched
our moviug ten' a day's march nearer Koine,"
and everybody said next morning that they
never slopt botier iu their lives.
Sunday morning found the train rattling
along amone the Apennines. While in the
Alps the sleighing had been excellent, if thero
had been anv one with sieighn to eujov it, but
in the Apennines there was not much show,
except at the extreme topB of tho mountains.
Manager Roberts had based bis calculations
ou clear tunnels, and he was therefore ap
palled to find on the top of the Apennines that
one tunnel ws under repair, atid was almost
filled with timber arching, leaving just enough
room for the ordinary train to pass. Hera
was a "go; or rather.'it threatened to be no
gi.. After a great deal of slow and cautions
work, the train was at last got through, al
though if the tunnel had not ben a short and
straight one there might have been a stick, as
the long cars could not have turned in a
crooked timbered tuntyd. At Bologna a few
minutes were allowed in order tht sausages
might bo obtained, and Florence wa a reached
at 1 o clock. After this the course lay along
the Arr.o. and doubtless the anxious manager,
who at last freed his mind from fear of "hot
boxes" or timbered tunnels, though "after
this thero Arno more troubles from here to
Itome." It was tor making thi9 pun that Ju
lius Csar w as slain, ai.d that was why cu
jurv oou'd be got to convict the murderer.

Ono of the young men began playing on a

struck up some jig tho "Arkansas" some

with folded arms, to bear the martyrdom
When it was finished, with tho accom
paniment of pc.lal bass on the floor, tlio old
professor broke oitt, Baying iu a savage
way. "That music is scandalous; we don't
have any music of that s:rt any more. That
is music only for th-j feet; it doesn't go any
further than the legs ; but real music is a
story, like a book, that you may read. It
doesn't touch your feet ; it touches your heart
it doosu't mike your hands work like a saw;
it brings the fairs to your eyes." There was a
dead, painful silence as the young men Baw
that what thoy loved was only a lie and a coun
terfeit And s'o ia it w ith others iu other things
iu life. They find pleasure where wisdom
sees folly and love things that have in them
no truth.

ness of the grocery or tho success of tha cir
cus. Rut there they ara They have become
a part, and so essential a part, that it is impos
sible to to think of them as disconnected from
tho whole. To say nothing of tha dullness of
a circus without peanuts and lemonade, a
prize-package boy wonld Beam out of place
anywhere else than on a railroad train unless,
of course, it were at the bottom of a pond
The man who picks bis tooth is an outcast and
a freak of nature on the street or in a private
parlor; but at the hotel heeoem quite ueoea
Bary to its continuous operation. The grocery
loafer is like a fish out of water when away
from the top of the sugar barrel; but without
bun on it, the grocery business loses all sem
blauco of prosperity, and impending bank
ruptcy b tares it.in the face.
So journalism has its attachments and on
growths, who are of it but uot in it They
come to be recognized aa permanent, though
partial codicils and tail piece to the original
.establishment: Some of these the public will
tecogiuze by uarne. 'I here is the venerable
"Taxpayer. v. hose contributions are as nu
merous aaiiis (complaints and criticisms. There
is "An Old Subscriber," who once forgot him
solf and sent his composition to the first num
ber of a new paper. There, too, ara "Veritas"
and "Citizen" no journal ia fully equipped
which has not secured the aervicea of these re
nowned and skillful contributors.
Then, too, there are the genial person! who
visit tho editorial room in person or by proxy,
the features of whose atyle or maimer can,
like the prodigal son, be Been afar off. There
is the man who, after being publicly denounced
or accused of crimes which would make a
cigar store Indian wipe the perspiration from
its brow, remarks that hia "attention baa been
called to a paragraph in your paper;" whereas,
tho probability is that he has read it over until
be knows it by heart, and will not forget it
until his dying day.
In this catalogue should not be omitted the
man who brings in an article at the request of
many friends. This is usually a clergyman,
poetess, politician or other person who is anx
ious to share with the public certain oratorical
or literary privileges which have been mainly
confined to his congregation or family circle.
As a rulo, he doos not care anything about it
himsolf ; but his hearers or friends are agitated
with an irrepressible desire to confor upon
tho community tho inestimable boon of
publicity which Providence has so kindly be
stowed upon thont.
Thero is the person, too, who is quite indif
ferent himself to all rumors, reports aud even
court records which impair his good reputa
tion, but wdiieh, on account of his family, he
is anxious to have suppressed; on his heeli ij
the person who either through curiosity or
anger wants to know "who wrote that article,"
followed by tlio man who wants to know wliat
authority you had for "printing that staff aliout
him." 'ihe procession is uot complete without
the book agent or tho picture dealer, the in
ventor of the fire escape and eveu an occasion
al peddler of yankee notions.

I have a joke ou Judgo Charley Clancy that
will break your heari. It was the eve of tha
day on which the lJliss Spraguo coutestw as
to bo decided. In tho Delavan house a band
of gladiators wero assembled, reviewing the
field and fortifying themsolves against the,
enemy. Some one remarked that Clement, of
Saratoga, was not doing right iu voting to seat
Sprague.
"I know a man that can fix him," exclaimed
Judge Clancy.
"Who is he?" asked Ocn. Spinola, deeply
interested. "Telegraph to him by all means."
So the judge hastened down to tho telegraph
office, loth to trust tho duty to a waiter, aud
soon was speeding on ite way this message:
"To Steve Dcnn, Sabatooa: You are
wanted here immediately. Matter of great
necessity. Take next train.
C. M. Claxcv."
The julgw waited an hour, but no response
came, and tho conned of war advised another
dispatch, and it wont off as follows:
"Why don't yon answer my dispatch? If
you' re "a friend of mine lose no time in com
ing." Still no answer, and at last ths judge, out of
patience, sent the fodowing:
"To Postmastek, Rauaxoga: Is Steve Dunn
in town? Havo wired him tv ice and got no
answer."
The answer came baok as follows:
"Yes. Steve Dunn is ia that part of the town
devoted to cemetery purposes. He's been
dead for two years. Postmaster."
Ail the gladiators laughed except Charley.
I'npopnlarlty of Cremation.
New York JouruaL
Tho efforts to make cremation popular ia
America nie.it with little encouragement, and it
is quite allowable to believe that they never
will meet with anything like general approba
tion. The reasons do uot he very deep in the
nature of th ng , but they are universally dis
tributed. The sentiment attached to earth
burial is a natural one, and it has been fos
tered and expanded by nearly all religions.
But it remains to be shown that the senti
ment which ordinarily leads sensitive
young women and an occasional crotchetty
man to declare that burning is preferable to
burial is a morbid one. In almost every case
it springs from fanciful mortuary horrors that
wholesome strong sense never harbors. But
aside entirely from this idea there ia still the
most powerful argument to be advanced
against cremation from tho side of science it
self, and it is contained in the reflection that
ordinary and inevitable decay is a provision of
nature herself, and in the mysterious evolution
after death may be a necessary provision which
man Bhould not violently disturb or prevent

A gentleman in Boston haa a cat of tho fem

inhabitants of his house. Four of the kittens
were disposed of. Recently the cat surprised
her owner by conveying a live mouse that she
lud captured to "her nest and placing it
alongside of her own progeny and now appears
to bo quite contented. The cat, kitten and
mouse play, eat and sleep together, and oa

A remarkable material called "terra cotta
lumber" baa recently been brought to notice ia
England. It ia composed of tha top layer of
fire-clay beds and Baw dust, exposed to be
and pressure. Slabs, bricks and boards of
any shape may be moulded from it, and it is
capable of being cut by edged tools, plerce-1
by nails, sawn, and otherwise manipulated,
just as wood is. But the strangest feamre
about it ia that it Btanda, without any apparent
effect upon it, a more intense heat than fire
clay will bear; and for lining furnaces, for
bridge walla in smelting f uruaoes and other
places of great beat it will be a valuable and
' almost inexpensive substitute for asbestos.
Water seems to have no destructive influence
upon it Its weight ia about that of an equal

buff to fierce salmon. No d.vnbt it will be
