ON the 7th of the month the B. & M. railroad company shut down on allowing passengers to ride on freight trains under any circumstances. THE Denver & Rio Grande has just been mortgaged for $50,000,000 to the Union Trust company of New York : What it wants with so much money , unless it is to extend its sys tem to San Francisco , is what will puzzle the public. The probability is that in ease of such an extension it will be heavily backed by the Bur lington. Mrs..R. H.

GARDNER , the lat est disciple and protege of that prince of atheists Robert Ingersoll lec tured Sunday , the 6th inst. , in Chick- eringHall , New York. After styling the Christian religion as wicked , un just , unreasonable , cowardly , and in famous , she sallied forth in this most infamous tirade against the hope of the world : "A religion which says that wo should be miserable in this world that we may be happy hereafter has a false . A religion that says that elieving .vice is holier than unbeliev ing virtue is wrong. I do not be lieve in a religion which sends Em erson and Channing to h 1 because Eve ate the forbidden fruit or sends Chastine Cox to heaven because a mob murdered Jesus Christ. Most of the church-goers are women , which will make heaven a queer kindergar ten , in whose classes will be few male voices , and those chiefly tenor. Wher ever woman is mentioned in the Bible it is an insult to her purity. A woman should spurn the Bible and endeavor to destroy its influence ; and I mean to do all I can in such a direction. Jehovah stands condemned before the bar of every noble soul. God might have hinted to Solomon in one of their numerous conversations that he had a few more wives than necessary. The Bible might be kept in one's library as a curious old literary work , but it- should be kept on the top shelf. Don't let the children get-at it. I want to do what I can , " she said , "to show women that their mercury of self-respect must fall several degrees when they enter the church doors. " Just exactly the relationship Helen bears to Charles Guiteau is not stated , but they must be very intimately con nected their is a striking resem blance in their literary prcductions. A MAX had met a girl in a lonely place and forcibly kissed her. She was terribly indignant , and had him arrested. She * gave an account on the witness stand of how he ga/ed at her intently , and then , suddenly throwing his arras around her , imprinted a kiss upon her lips. The prisoner made no defense , and the jury was -expected to promptly convict him of assault. They returned to the court room. "The ju-ju jury w-w would like to ask the young lady two questions , " the' foreman said. The judge .con sented , and she went on the stand. ' D-d-did the that - - you wear J-j-jersey you've got on now ? " "Yes , sin , ' ' was the demure . "And reply. w-w-was your hair b-b-banged like that ? " "Yes sir. " "Then honor , , your , we acquit the p-p-prisoner on the ground cf emo-mo-motioual insanity. . ' ' North Rand Flail. THE Railroad Gazette shows that 7,200 miles of road were finished last year , as against 11.600 in 1882 , 9,800 .in 1881 , ; and 7,200 in 1880. The country has now over 120,000 miles of railroad in-operation. DK. MARY WALICER , attired in a "full" suit , fur bound overcoat , and a plug hat , paid her respects to the president New Year's day. Evident ly. Dr..Mary did not swear off. ' THE Judije suggests .that dufles O O j should .wear low necked garments as well as-other folks. Not.a bad idea. Their brains are already cut- law in the neck. A MONTANA girl died from the ef fects of an embrace. ' A svreetsmile j > layed. about her lips even .in death. BY OUR ASSISTANT EDITOR. THE marriageable young ladies of Hastings have-mapped out a plan to bust the bachelors' jassociation before the leap year wanes. DENVER seems to be the Baden- Baden of the West in gambling ; the Ninevah in regard to the social evil ; a Mecca for the invalids , and paradise for political adventurers. Thus it is a i ; good place for sensational journalists. BACHELOR bald-headed bourbon Dick of the Hastings Democrat , in the travail of his soul , gives utterance to the following piety : "In the name of God , what has become of the Christ- like people ? " And Hamlets advice has been suggested ; "Get thee to a nunnery. " "O , AMY , " .said the lu'gh school girl's friend last night , "you ought to ! have seen me catch on to Gus's arm I yesterday. " "My dear,1' replied the high school girl , "after your studies of anatomy have further progressed you will not say 'catch on to. his arm , ' but 'I grasped Iris Jiumerus with my ' phalanges. ' " OU City Derrick. AND now doth the frisky maiden Improve each shining minute , making the most of leap year , hoping there's millions in it. The society young man can now rest from his arduous duties , as it is to him and not the la dies court must be paid. But there will l > e just asraauy theatre And ball tickets paid for : by the young men as there -ever was. Tin's girl .may see him Lome according to the etiquette i of the season , but ten to-one she will have to ask him to take her homes aftejward. Leap year is all right in theory , but It is poor in practice after all. Peck's Sun. So she was going to be married 1 to ; be mistress of a house ; settle in London ; be able to go out into > the streets all alone , to shop or visit ; have a gentleman all her own , whom she jeould put her finger on any moment , and make him take her about , even to the opera and the theatre ; to give dinner parties her owuself , and even a little ball once in a w3iile to 1 > uy whatever dresses .she .thought jirojier , instead of being crippled by an allow ance ; have the legal right of speak ing first in society , instead of sitting imunchance and mock modest ; to be mistress instead of miss a contempt ible title ; cto .be a woman instead of a girl ; ; and allfihis rational liberty , do- jnestic power-and social dignity were TO be obtained by merely wedding a dear fellow who loved her and was so nice- ; and the bright career to be ushered in Avith several delights , each of them dear to a girl's very soul ; pres ents from all her . .friendsas . ; many beautiful new dresses as of cne was changing her body or her hemisphere instead of her name ; eclat- ; going to church , -.which is a good girl's theater of display and temple of vanity , and there tasting delightful publicity and whispered admiration in a heavenly long veil which she could not wear even once if she remained single. This bright and variegated picture of 3ioly wedlock , as revealed to young Jadies by feminine ttradition , though jiot enumerated.in the Book of Com- monPrayerso entranced her that time flew by unheeded. Charles Eeade.
