Beksemek steel rails are now selling at
$20. 50, at which figure a large order was
placed last week. Fifteen years ago the
lowest price wa $ 100. Ami yet there
are people ready to argue that a protect
cve tariff is prohibitory and keeps prices
up so high that competition is impossible.
After mukiug vigorous efforts to
check the general exodud of its colored
population, North Carolina has bowed to
the inevitable, and now the Italeigh
News and Courier consolas itself with
the remark that "only the scum of the
population" lias gone. It is impossible
to get the emigrants buck, and hence the
sourness of the grapes.
FaAMCif, Austria and Germany hare
adopted smokeless and almost noiseless
gunpowder for their armies. When the
next great European war takes place the
battle will bear but a faint resemblance
to any that have preceded them. There
will be little noiss aud less smoke, and if
half the new inventions answer expecta
tions, the loss of life will be so terrible
that the iesue will be very bpeedily de
cided.
As soon as Corpal Tanner was appoint
ed commissioner of pensions and took
charge of affairs in the pension bureau,
the democrats began to circulate all
kind of falsehoods, although it was
known that a good many changes would
be needed atter the administration of
"Physical Wreck" Black was only to be
expected; but as a matter of fact there
have been but few thus far. As a sam
ple of thesa falsheoods regarding Mr.
Tanner it is pointed out in a dispatch
from a Washington correspondent that
when the commissioner recommended
three removals the number was magni
fied in the democratic press to 147.
Comment on such statements is unnec
essary. Harper's Weekly does not approve of
the appointment of J. S. Clarkson :s
first assistant postmaster general. That
paper has had no loye for a genuine re
publican for some years. It delights to
honor milk and wa'cr men who are
neither hot nor cold men of its own
type and kind. The President Harrison,
James G. Blaine, J. S. Clarkson' and J as.
Tanner kin 1 of republicans, so much ad
mired by the people of all parties, is very
annoying to George William Curtis and
the mugwumps generally. Mr. Curtis
still writes as though he had some influ
ence on this administration and in
shaping the political tkought of the
country. This however, is characteristic
of a mugwump In his own estimation
he never ceases to be a power in the gov
ernment. Whenever they lose these
ideas of self importance they are no long
er mugwumps but reasonable men. The
recent removal of Mr. Pierson and the
appointment of Cornelius F. Scott as
postmaster at New York city in direct
opposition to the wishes of Mr. Curtis
will probably give him a hint that eyen
a mugwump can understand that that
element is having but little to do in
shaping the policy of this adtuiniotrrtion.

SAD SURVEYING IN KANSAS
CITY.
A thorough legal resurvey of Kansas
City is needed. Owing to engineering
inaccuracies and other causes, there is a
lack of uniformity in the lines and
measurements which is both annoying
and expensive.
In one instance, iu the norttieat portion
of the city, an aggravated ejectment
action in the circuit court was caused by
a misunderstanding in regard to a boun
dary line. The disputed strip of land
was 1 foot inches wide, andsach claim
ant had reason to believe himself right.
In another cue in Pendleton Heights
it was almost impossible, from the data
given, to correctly locate iha center line
of the street preparatory to to cross tap.
tioning the street as ft preliminary to
grading. The line finally Accepted was
3 feet from the supposed location, and
wheh grading was done some neatly sodr
ded terraces suffered. In a case in West
Kansas from confusing data an expensive
party wall in a large brick building had
to be torn down, removed and rebuilt.
On the west side of Forest avenue, in
the vicinity of Ninth street, a rasa who
bought a oO foot lot got about 53 feet.
The block was built up, and every one in
it got all the land cajlrd for in his deed.
The last to be served found an extra "3
feet that no one could prevent his taking.
The property is worth bstween $200 and
300 a foot.
Dao source of error was the grading
ownx)f the hills and te tiding up of
the ravines. Surveys of land and lots
platted where great inequalith-8 of sur
face existed do not always coincide with
surveys made after the leveling process
h'is been completed.
The reason given for delaying the
work of resurveying is that it is still in
expedient to attempt to reduce things to
exactness because there are yet many
rough surfaces. Ex-County Surveyor
Daniel O'Flaherty holds this view. Kan

When the snows havo melted off the
mountains and tho waters havo become
warmer; when tho buds of tho red
stemmed water maples that lino tho
banks of tho rivers, and streams begin
to swell; nnd when the wanning influ
ence of the sun draws out tho "frost"
from the blulf sides, and the first spring
land slips occur; then tho river fishermen
take up their work.
They aro not a pushing, rushing, hur
rying sot of men theso fishermen: they
aro rather on the Waltoniah or reflective
style; they can drive a bargain as close
as any one, but their sad lack of indus
try keeps them poor. But a jollier, more
life enjoying people never lived. I call
them a people; they aro a distinct class
of men from their neighbors, even those
of liko "social" standing. In the winter
they subsist on tho little, the pitifully
little provender laid by during tho busy
summer season, by basket making and
chair bottoming. Some of them occupy
themselves during tho winter months in
a kind of desultory progressioual hunt
ing. Iktbbits, squirrels, quails, turtle
doves, ueld larks, ducks, geese, water
chickens, coots, robins, sparrows and a
variety of small birds, which, if known
by their right name, would not "be
touched, but, served up fictitiously, are
relished exceedingly, aro the victims of
these conscienceless hunters.
HOOKING AND NETTINO.
But tho principal occupation of tins
class of men is, as I havo said before,
fishing. They use what is called a "trot
line," and as most peoplo are unfamiliar
with such a method of fishing I will ex
plain. It consists of a long tar enameled
cotton cord, about a quarter of an inch
in thickness, and it reaches across, or
nearly across, the river. Dangling from
it, at a distance of a j ard or so apart,
aro short linen lines or linking. These
aro supplied with ono or more hooks,
each of varying sizes. One fisherman
generally has four or five such lines, and
with a dip net and catch net his outfit is
complete. Tho dip net is a fine meshed
contrivance, with a frame shaped like
the letter D, the part of tho frame corre
sponding to the perpendicular stroke in
tho letter resting on tho ground. The
net is shoved up the mouths of springs,
creeks, branches, etc., and i3 designed to
take in all crawfish, minnows and other
unfortunate small fry which unluckily
fall in the way. Tho catch net is an in
strument, with tho uso of which nearly
every one is familiar.
Tho best and favorito bait is small,
tender crawfish, or "craws," a3 they are
called. Theso the giant red horse, the
red tinged sun perch, tho mud cats, the
floundering bufTalo and their kindred of
tlu 1 iiiiiy tribe take with avidity. An
other reason for tho popular uso of this
artic le for bait is the fact that it cannot
be nibbled olf by the sundry minnows.
Charlies and molly hogs that always ia
fest, baited grounds. Tad poles, bull
frogs, molly hogs, rot gut3, grubs, grass
hoppers and eel meat all mako very
tempting bait.
So:no fish, as for instance the buffalo
and the red horse, require a ppcci.il lino
and u special hook. The buffalo lino is
short and very stroncc, and is provided
with specially mado buffalo hooks. The
red horse always swallows the bait, and
hence it needs a very slender hook. The
fishermen, as rv rule, aro very expert in
thejr profession.

FItESU WATER PEARLS,
People who havo dealings with coun
try storekeepers may havo noticed a
statement on tneir letter heads, to the
effect that they buy and sell fresh water
pearls. The river fishermen are tho men
that collect this new article of com
merce, in some counties m t:io "back

The fishermen choosa u mussel bed of

to the discovery of the river naturalists,
by fine sand, working in between the

Thought lie Was a Peddler. -
A well known lawyer started for his
li'jrth side home about dusk one evening
lust week. He thought ho needed exer
cise, (fo ho concluded to walk over. Ho
hud with him a ladies' work basket,
fixed upon a high standard, and this he
was carrying home to his wife. Ho
struck Dearborn avenue and hastened
north at a rapid gate. He was looking
straight ahead, and after he -had gone a
few blocks he noticed a stylishly dressed
lacly aught irom a handsome equipage
and run hurriedly up the 6teps of a
house. He thought ho noticed her drop
something, and when he reached the
sidewalk in front of tho house where the
carriage had stood ho looked down and
discovered a fat purse. Picking it up he
tripped up the steps and rang tho door
bell, the lady having been admitted be
fore he came up. His ring was answered
in a moment by a neat maid, whom he
asked if the lady of the house was in.
The lady evidently heard the question,
as sho stepped at once to the door. He
was about to return the pocketbook she
had dropped, when sho noticed the bas
ket in his hand and blurted out: "No,
we don't want anything." Then 6ho
slammed the door in his face. He wanted
to explain, but it wounded his pride to
ho taken for a peddler, and he tucked the
pocketbook in his pocket and proceeded
on his way home.
On his way down town in the morning
tho gentleman stopped again at the lady's
house to return the pocketbook. His wife
had not leen satisfied with the work
basket he had brought home with him,
and ho carried it along to exchange for
another.
It happened that when he ran" the
bell of tho house, the number of which
ho had carefully noted the day before,
the lady herself was in the hall. She
hastened to tho door and when she saw
the man and tho basket again sho petu
lantly exclaimed, "I told you last night,
sir, that we wanted nothing," and for
the second time she slammed the door in
his countenance. This made him hot.
vv hen he reached his office he put the
pocketbook in a sealed envelope and
tucked it away in his safe. For a whole
week afterward the lady advertised in
all of tho palters for her lost wealth.
At last the lawyer addreSsed her a note,
asking her to call at his office. When
she came ho sat her down, explained all
tho circumstances to her, and then hand
ed over her pocketbook. It contained
351. Now it is a safe bet that when a
man who looks liko a canvasser rings
her door bell she will search her pockets
before sho turns him away. Chicago

How It Is Done in Mexico.
"Like the alcalde of Lagos," Como el
alcalde do Lagos, is an expression cur
rent tliroughout a large part of Mexico
to denote any trying or ludicrous posi
tion that a man is placed in because both
his hands aro full. Tho story runs:
Once went an alcalde of Lagos to
church. And in Ins right hand he car
ried his staff of office, and as ho entered
tho church he lifted off and held in his
left hand his hat. Then ho sought to
put the holy water upon his forehead;
but this ho could not do, for both his
hands were full. Then in a while a bold
resolve entered his heart, and he plunged
hn head into tho font.
Before the plaza that is in the midst of
thr to.vn of Lagos was set in order, as.
it ii. iw i i, thero was in tho middle of it a
deep and wide hole. And this hole
caused, tho town council (ayuntamiento)
mu !i concern, for they perceived that it
was a dangerous place, into which the
unwary might fall in the dark and be
killed or maimed. So a meeting of the
council was called, and it was decided
that the hole should be filled. And to
get earth to fill it a hole was dug beside
it. And, behold, when it was full there
was a new hole, as deep and as wide as
that which was filled! Then in tho same
way did they set about filling the new
hole, and again was the same lesult,
only now tho hole no longer was in the
middle of the plaza, but over at the side
of it in tho street that goes out toward
the nortlu And again they filled it, and
so continued, until at last the boia wasi
far put in the northern suburb of tho
town. And there they suffered tho hole
to remain, for thero it did no harm.
