Railwaiy Line.
Mr. Cecil Rhodes, known throughout
he civilized world as a. speculat-or oi
tupendous ideas, has again indulged
n. a. sort of day dream. He has sprung
Ir the British and South African. pub-
ics many startling schemes, some of
vhich, as his. bank account would
‘oubt-less show, have been). surprisingly
'uccessful. He now comes to the front,
o-wever, with a project so far surpass
ng all of his previous games that with
he possible exception of the plans of
he De Lesse-ps it may be said to be
vithout a. parallel in latter-day engi-
neering. It is no less than: to build 3

It runs through what but a. score of
years ago was for a white man the
most unhealthful country in. the world,”
missionary teas and kindred-civilities’
being in vogue. This line now dees a
paying business. ”Besides this, in va-
rious parts of. the continent, and
stretching im a- general direction from
north to south, there are 2,334 miles,
of profitable lines in operation. Cen-
sidering these facts, Mr. Rhodes’ plea
that even if his road does not payfor it-
self for the first ten years,'it cannot
fail to be amply profitable in. the
end, seems quite plausible.
Mr. Rhodes has submitted his map to
the British public, and even now comes
the British parliament to aid him in his
project. The government has already
been instrumental in furthering the

steady pressure that the line to Ruin-
wayo is being pushed forward so rap-
idly. The-re is little. doubt that in the
end royal countenance will be extended
to the. South African, too. His line of
extension is most congenial to British
ideas of progress, as the majority lies
rito-ry, and could not fail, when the time
of its prosperity should have come, to
more than amply repayits projectors.

ed to keep the» stock at par. Engineers
will doubtless watch the progress of
the scheme with inten seinterest, as the
funds involved are an appreciable por-
tion of the world’s wealth. In spite of
even the. most sanguine expectations of
Mr. BhOdes himself, however, it will be
some months yet- before the bonds are
on the market. But if the road is oper-
ated within 10- years, in view of Mr.
Stanley’s experiences but two decades
before, it will be marvelous in. the ex-
treme. The world goes rapidly in these
times. America. took 300 years to wake
up. Africa, being a, much “warmer”
hand, may take but 30.
Early English Gold' Colmge.
Henry III. issued the first current
gold'cloinl in England in 1247. It was of
pure: gold, passed for 20' pence, and was
called a gold penny. The next current
gold coin issued—the fibrin—was is-
sued by Edward III. in. 134-4. Guineas
were issued by Charles II. in 1663, and
continued to be coined until 1814,,when
. they were superseded by sovereigns.
The gold sovereign. was first coin ed by
Henry VII.‘ Though the coining of
money be a special prerogative of the
crown, yet the ancient Saxon princes
communicated it- to their subjects, in-
asmuch that in every good town there
was at least one mint; but at London
there were eight; at Canterbury, four
for the. king, two for the archbishop;
one for the abbot at Winchester, six at
Rochester, two at Hastings.
President as a Horseman.
The president is a‘ good horseman,
and he attracted. the adlmiring atten-
tion of all the coachmen. and jehus on.
the street by. the masterly manner in:
which he controlled his spirited team
and the skill with which he guided his
cutter through fashionable K street
one day recently. The sleigh ride of
the president and. Mrs. McKinley was
the. greatest surprise to fashionable
Washington, for not. since the days of
Grant, a. correspondent says, as the
Capital city seem a president driving his
own span through the streets in ap-
parent enjoyment of doing what is al-
most universally left to the coachman
m the city of fas-hliom ankli reserve.
