The water was growing very low and clear,
when my eldest son‘threw his first cast with
the small turkey wing, the least glaring fly in

the fish was turned by 'wary coaxing, and
brought cautiously down to-the deep water
where he had been hooked. A new danger
was here threatened, .for the. eddy tree ap-
peared provokingly near, and it was likely the
huge fish might strike across the river, twisti-
ing the line aroundits branches. Again he
was fooled by the coolness of his tormentor,
and the upstream march was resumed. The
shades of evening now deepened, and my
hopes of a daylight capture were over. The
sky was, however, clondless; not a breath
stirred the leaves, and, to our delight, the glo.

train _isl=moving with a curious solidity of
aetion‘,‘tliez wheels running- in- grooves that
would. seem to make the mishap most-to be
feared—that of leaving the track—quite im-
possible. There arc a dozen passengers in
the car, and as many more in each of the
three cars of the train, and there is a train
from the station we have just left every three
minutes.
We roll along at the level of the second-
story windows of the larger houses stopping
”at frequent stations, which are gay and pretty
wooden buildings, with gates and warnings
to prevent. headless, stepping in front of the
constant trains. Suddenly our speed is
slackencd almost to stopping, and we turn
at right angle, resume our northerly course.
This involves great loss of headway, and con-
sequently of speed, which will be remedied
some day. As we roll on, our view is con-
fined to the faces of the houses that line the
‘ street and the glimpses of vistas of the cross‘
streets. But as we reach the broad Sixth
Avenue we see more of the life of the shops
and sidewalks; we are opening out into the
broader parts of the city; there are stately
churches and lofty houses; and suddenly
there is the green country before us—we are
at the Central Park, and it is twenty-five
minutes since we left Trinity Church.
I To the passenger there hasvbeen but one'
discomfort—the smoke and fine dust from
the locomotive. It has beena surprisingly
delightful journey. Omnibuscs and street
cars are the monsters of a distempered fancy.
Going down town or going home isa charm-'
ing excursion. But while this is his own
personal‘cxperienee, the passenger, as he has
caught sight in his flight of a chamber in an
upper’ story, with the bed toward the win-
dow, the bureau, the table, and the chair-—
a seclusion ruthlessly invaded every moment
by hundreds of careless eyes, by a coninnous
tour, and a puff of dust and smoke—has
wondered what the ledger may think of it
all, and what the lodger, with ruined privacy
and murdered sleep, may have to say to
the landlord, hot and profane from the mere
apprehension of complaint and Warning.
These rooms are darkened sometimes; there
esickness, sufiering, death in them; but
the rattle and jar and smoke and dust go
steaming by incessantly. The passenger sees
also the shops below, and his imagination
goes into them, accompanying the “shopper"
wiping dust from her sacquc and cinders
from her eyes, and “ cheapening the goods”
amid the rumble of the train, and he wonders
if the noise and the smoke and the dust pro-
mote the prosperity of the shops. The car-
riage horses passing under the frame-work
of the railway do not seem to be frightened.
They lift heads, perhaps, as the tiain comes
thundering over, but that is'ali. Indeed,
every body is compelled to observe that heio
is a new thing, another step for ward,an-
other improvement of the nineteenth cen-
tury which has come, and, despite chambers
and lodgers and landlords and shop-keepers,
has, “come to stay. "
There have been pio‘ests of properly holC§
ers and physicians, and suits have been
brought and meetings held. The railway
has been denounced as the result of 11 mon-
strous usurpation of public force over private
right, forcasting the Commune itself. But
the conviction of public convenience will
probably prevail over all, and the problem
of rapid transit will have been solved by the
aerial method. It must produce great chang-

Sunday in England.
Thetruth is that the claim now made on
behalf of the working classes is only a very
temporary version of the claim which the
upper classes have long since advanced and
enjoyed. In the course of the last tenor
twenty years, Sunday, as a social institution,
has been revolutionized in England. Of
course it is still invested with the vague halo
'Of'traditional sanctity, but it is losing, one
by one, the usages which once marked it as a
day not only dedicated torest, but to religion.
Society’s Sunday in London differs entirely
from the Sunday which itknew less than
two decades ago. It is true that society, or
at leastasection of it, still goes to church
with tolerable regularity once every Sunday
in London, and with undeviating regularity
once at least every Sunday in the country.
But London church-going is a rite which, in
the majority of instances, bears the same re-
lation to the religious scntimentas St. James’
Hall does to Westminster Abbey. It may be
allowed that there is such a thing as a devo-
tional feeling, which is honestly and unaffect-
edly gratified by the act of collective wor-
ship. But the tone in which it is customary
to speak of these “acts of worship” is seldom
suggestive of anything which can by court-
esy be called religion. Ladies go to church
because “it is heathcnish not to go;” be-
cause the service is generally good; because
the music is perfectly lovely; because the
clergyman says such droll things; because
they see their friends there ; because, in fact
it is the right thing to do. Men go to church
because they are unconsciously influenced by
ahealthy regard for the good old English
idol—respectability; because they consider
e that their position require it, even in London;
because they have an idea that they are set
'ting an example to their children or their
household; because, perhaps, their wives
‘wish it. But to put the matter plainly, liow-
‘cver ugly the sound which the words may
have, church-going is for the most part an
Eact which is a tribute not to God, but to
iMammon.—London Wt .-l.l.

A Coroner) VOTER.-—-“Ab1‘flllflm, how do

As he uttered the words “we wotes,” Ab-
raham’s face was a study. The index finger
of his right hand was pressed against his
lips, and his countenance assumed an expres-
sion at once full of meaning and yet as blank
as a stone wall. Finding that he was dispos.
ed to take refuge behind this pantomime from
further revelations, I replied: “Yes, I know
you vote, Abraham, but the thing thatI want
to know is whether there are not serious
troubles and differences here between the
colored people and the white people. How
is it 2" ‘
' “ii uy, to be sure dar's troubles an' differ-

an’ sometimes do niggers pitch into dc white

massa, WE worss !”
pressive pantomime, but I pretended not to
comprehend his meaning, though I began t'o
havea glimmering -of it. So I resumed:
“You have told me that twice, Abraham,
but it is no answer to my question. Now no
dodging, but come straight to the point—are
the white people and the colored folks friends
or enemies? Do you understand that, Abra-
ham ?”
“Oh yes, massa, dat falk‘s plain enough. I
guess I kin understan’ it widout kickin’. Now
jis lemme tell you how 'tis. S‘pose a nigger
gits sick, well, dar ain't no nigger doctors,
derstan’? Well, jis so, dar ain’t no nigger
lawyers, nor bankers, nor butchers, nor bak-
ers, nor nofiin', an‘ we've got to 'pend on de
white lawyers an' butchers, an’ bakers. Un-
derstan’, massa ? Very well, den, ef I wants
to buy any thin’, or of I’ve got any thin’ to
sell, dar ain,t no niggers to go to, an' I’ve
got to go to the white folks. S'pose'my chilo

mon nigger jist like mysc’f. to bury him ?
No, sir. He should have do best white min-
ister dar is a-goin’. An’ den agin, s'pose
dar’s sickness or trouble in my fam’ly, an’ I
want good hear an’ words 0’ comfort, do you
spcct I’d run to udder niggers to git ‘em ? All
I’ve got to say is, ef I did, I’d be disapp'int-
ed, sure. But I don’t do it, an' no niggers
does it what kin help it. Ef my wife or
chiic gits taken bad, I goes to Kurnel Bob's
sister, an’ den I knows it’s boun’ to come

an’ of I gits into trouble, like that dam bail,
why, I jis goes to Kurnel Bob hissc’f, an’ he
helps me to pull through. Dat's what we
niggers has got to do, massa. But den, you
see, we worse !” - .
No ingenuity of which I was the master
could extract a more direct reply from Abra-
ham, who seemed to be an hdept in the art
of saying nothing with his} tongue while his
face and hands and. eyes spoke volumes. I
had no doubt, however, that the impression
,he sought to convey was that while there
were many strong ties of interest, affection,
and sympathy between the two races, and
'that while the negroes instinctively resorted
‘ to the whites in great emergencies, deferring
to their superior intelligence in matters of
domestic or business coneernment, they still
held themselves distinct politically, because
they perceived that somewhere. in this field
there was an antagonism or interests, which
they held in restraint by massing their votes
as an undivided unit—From “Ab'ui': a
Glimpse of Modern Dixe,”- by Charles D.
eshler, in‘Harper‘a Magazine for September.
Cleaning Black Silk.
One of the things‘mot generally known,"
at least in this'couutry, is the Parisian meth-
od of cleaning black silk ;'.the modus operandt'
is very simple, and the result infinitely super.
lior to that achieved in any other manner.
The silk must be thoroughly brushed and
wiped with acloth, then laid flat on a board
or table and sponged well with hot coffee,
thoroughly ’freed from sediment by being
‘Straiued through muslin. The silk is spong.
'ed on the side intended to show, it is al-
lowed to become partially dry and then iron-
ed on the wrong side. The coffee removes
every particle of grease, and restores the
brilliancy of the silk without imparting to it
either the shiny appearance or crackly and
papery stiffness obtained by beer, or indeed
any other liquid. The silk really appears
thickened by the process, and this good effect
is permament. Our readers who will experi-
mentalize on an apron or eravat, will never
again try any other method.

_.
The attention of the traveling public is respect-
ful! invited to some of the merits of this great
big way. in the coufidentassertion and belief that
no. other line can offer equal inducements u I
route of travel. In ‘
Construction and Equipment
THE ' ‘
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD
stands confessedlyat the head of American rails
ways. The track is double the entire. length of the
line,of‘stcel rails laid on heavy oak ties,which are
embedded in a foundation of‘rockballiist eighteen
inches in depth. Ail bridges are of iron or stone,
and built upon the most approved plans. lts pas-
senger cars, while eminently safe and substantial.
are at the same time models of comfort and ele-
gance.
The Safety Appliances
in use on this line well illustrate the far-seeing
and liberal policy of its management, in accord-
ance with which the utility onlyI of an improve-
ment apt! not its cost has been t c question of con-
sidcration. Among many may bc-noticed
THE BLOCK SYSTEM OF SIGNALS,
JANNEY COUPLFR, BUFFER AND
PLATFORM,
THE .WHARTON PATENT 8 WI Tali,
AND
THE WESTINGHO USE AIR-BRAKE,
forming in conjunction with a perfect double
track and road-bed a combination of safeguards
against accidents_ which have rendered them
practically impossible.

That Confounded Five-Year Old.
A pretty little girl, about five years old,
with one of those sugar-loaf hats modeled
after Fra Diavolo’s in the play no doubt,
cime on board the Staten Island' ferry boat
Westficld, last evening. In her train was a
weary-looking, middle-aged lady, whom she
treated with c'ondescensiou and called “Aun-
tie." After the young lady had found a com-
fortable seat in the bow of the boat, she al-
lowed her aunt to take a camp stool near by.
When the boat started she began a systematic
method of torture to which the middle-aged
lady submitted with wonderful resignation.
"Is that'watcr, auntie 7” she asked, point-
ing to the bay. .
“Yes, dear,” said the weary-looking lady.
“Did the rain make all that water i’”
“No, darling."
“Why didn’t the rain make all the water 7"
“Oh, the rain wouldn’t . effect if, you
know.” '
“Why wouldn't the rain ’fect it I"
. “Oh, you can’t understand that now."
"Why can’t. I understand it 7”
“Never mind; do keep still that’s a dear;
auntie‘s head aches.”
“What mains your head ache, auntie ?"
”The heat, I suppose.”
"What makes the heat 7"
“The sun, of course, dear."
“What is the sun 'r” '
“You know what the sun is well enough ;
I shan't answer that." I
The'little girltwisted uneasily in her chair
for a moment, and then burst out with the
question: ' 'A ' ~
' f‘What makes horses bones t"
“I don’t know,” said the aunt in a despair-
ing tone. ' ' ‘ i" .
“I think they are made out of , skin,” said
the little girl,with an air of, conviction. “Yes,
they’re made out of skin, an’ hair an’ wool
an’ rubber; that's what horse’s bones is made
out of.” " "
“Yes, dear," said the». shameless woman.
“If my pa gets that bone taken our of his
leg he’ll give me his watch. Would you have -
a bone taken out of your leg, auntie ?"
“You ridiculous child, of course not.”
“Why not 1” '
“Oh, keep still I"
The young woman then got up and nearly
fell over the‘ raii into the wafer. The hunt
uttered a shriek, and the writer,mueh against
his will, rescued the young lady. '
"Thank you, sir,” said the aunt.
“What for 7" asked‘the terrible infant. ‘
“For nothing,” said the rescuer.
“Auntie, did you ever see a little dicky
bird flirt up its tail an’ sing ?”
“Yes, dear.”
"Where 7"
“I meant no, dear." (Desperately)
“Did you see that colored lady, auntie?
She had on a fearful pretty list. over so much ‘
. prettier than yours—I want to go home.”
‘ "You musn’t go home; your mamma is
sick, and you must go with me."
“What makes mamma sick ?"
“Never mind,she'll be well again in a week
or two."
“But I want to know what makes her
sick ?" . '
“Never mind, dear.”
“Why ?"—bnt just at this moment the boat
swung up to the ' pier at St'apleton, and the
inquisitive young lady ind her submissive
aunt 'disembarked.—New . Tor-l: World.

fect when served, acidulated and feed, with
