It is a source of regret to this com munity that the people who were led is to investing more than $60,000 in street railwaying in L&n&aster, havo had tboir money so invested that scarcely anything short of a financial mir&oie can prevent them from los ing what they put into it, and should the legal proceedings instituted against the Pennsylvania Traction Campnny as the Company is called, for t ha appointment of a receiver reach cn expected conclusion the took in all probability watered stock and all mey be assessed and in that tvect the money invested wiil not oi-ly bo lost but the stock bald era will have to pay an assessment on the stock they hold. It is a pity our people have boon misled into follow ing a blind leader. How nearly to the bunco criminal business tho trans actions coma future investigation may reveal. The action against the Peon sylvania Traction Company at Lan caster is in tho United States Court and has been brought by John A. Hcebliag s Sons Company for the ap pointment of a receiver. It is alleg ed by those asking for the appoint ment of a receiver that the bonds of tbo rend wero applied to other uses than the meaning of the mortgage securing them, and that the default has been made in the payment of in terest on bonds in April 1896 and October 1896. The case cam up for argument before Judge Dallas of the United States Circuit Court, Philadelphia last Fiiday, but on ac count of the illness of Patterson its consideration was postponed till No vember 18, this Wednesday. The Lancaster Morning News toys, Pat terton the President of the Company was driven in a carriage, the day the cane was postponed by the court, on account of his illness. The News also says: It is now bt'.ievod that the insiders of the traction company will not offer any serious resistance to the appoint ment of a receiver, but will mass their strength in having a receiver ap pointed whom they can twist around their fingers. Ia writing further on the subject, the News says in an editorial: Of half a score or more financial schemes that have mu'ctttd Lancaster people oat of hundreds of thousands of dollars within the la3t decade, the most gigantic swindle of them all, seems now to be approaching a eriais, and before long the wounded and crippled will be 66sn crawling from the dqbrifl. It has been in a spirit of sorrow and sympathy for those who have been caught by tho honeyed words and golden promises of the little co terie that have totally wrecked the Pennsylvania Traction Company, and by bo means a gloating over its pros pective downfall that the Morning News bus at various tiaies laid open its inward rottenness. The epoctacls presented is this: A system of electric railways passing through the most thickly populated and prosperous sgricHltnral county in the union; a system that upon an honest indebtedness and capitaliza tion will easily pay fivs per cent, in terest and six per cent, dividend; a system that should to day be one of the nicit valuable properties in the eenntry, financially wrecked beyond redemption; wrecked in three years by erack-brained financiering tbo like of which, if the whole troth were known, can scarcely be found in this broad l-is-l. It hurts Lancaster to be known by this reputation. It weald bene won der if bunco sharps and confider.ee men flocked here with the idea that it is the greatest field in the werld for their trade. It harts the people wi.o hare bon iadacd to go into it as an investment, and have lest. It has taken hundreds of thousands cf Lancaster eouaty dollars and squan dered them, and it has almost if net entirely ruined men who will grind their teeth and bear their loss with out the world knowing of tbeir mis-wry- And who have profited? L-rss than a half dozen men who htve milked it dry by the various ehady methods, which tboir positions as insiders gave them opportunity. They have sock ed the cow dry and left cot even strippings for the honest creditors. TherA is cow but one conrse to pursue and the quicker it is done, the better. A receiver should be ap pointed not an individual or corpor ation wearing the collar of Patters m and bis ere r but a bold and honest one who will save wbat littlt there is to be saved for the creditors without preference, and divide it among them Then, fqnerzo the soggy sponge, drowning tbe wreckers in the wash of it, and bring tbo roads down to an honest indebtedness and capitali zation.

A Whit Man Wlo Was Ttrongfct Among Slave. Take the cose of Rev. W. J. White, the editor of a Baptist weekly publitslu d at Augusta, Ga. Whito is a man of in telligence and integrity, end his ac count of his early life has never been disputed. Briefly this is tho story : A few years before the war a dark faced boy maUo his appearance on a large Georgia plan tation, lie was supposed to be a mulat to, and when the planter died the youngster was sold with the estate. After the war this alleged mulatto picked np an education and investigated his ancestry. He wns not mcch sur prised to learn that ho did not have a particle of negro blood in his veins: His mother was an Indian and bis father was a wbite man. White was not long in deciding to cast his lot with the blacks. lie had al ways been classed with them. It seemed to be the will cf the Almighty that ho should share tho burdens .of tho negro race, aud he made np his mind to stick to his old companions. He prospered and became a leader among the people. He has the respect and confidence of both races, but he bai never attempted to rise above what he believee to be bis divinely ordained sphere. It is easy to see at a glance that this man is not a mulatto or a quad roon, for his mixed Indian and Cau casian blood cannot be mistaken ; but he has no desire to cnt loose from tho ex slaves with whom he has spent tho best years of his life. Many of the white ministers of his denomination know tho peculiar facts of his case, and they treat him with great consideration. Uncomplainingly he lends his life of self sacrifice, and bis only object sccnis to be the advancement of his adopted race. Ho mairied a mu latto and submits to all the laws and social distinctions which separate the two races in tho south. Few men simihuly situated would have followed White's example. As a rule, peoplo of Indian and wbite parent age claim to be tho social equals of the whites, and if they have a Pocahontas strain In their blood they are proud of it Chicago Times-Herald.

THEY ARE SLOW TOT ADOPT IMPROVE MENTS IN THE SERVICE. America WiIiUm An Adopted la a Sort of Half Hearted Way, and Very XJttle Effort la Mad by the WBycn to Pop ularize Them. Two factors in English holiday travel are obvious from these great piles of passengers' baggage. One is that there is no check system on the railways, and tbe other that if it cost as much to hire a cab in Liverpool or Manchester as in New York there would soon be a dimi nution in the number of packages, if not in the weight of the baggage, which English families take with them on their holiday travels. Few big Saratoga trunks are to be seen on the platform at Crewe Here and there may be seen a trunk which it takes two men to lift. l4mt the address on it will almost cer tainly show it to belong to an American visitor. English people will not tako the trouble to pack all their belongings into one or two largo sized trunks. Neither is there any need why they should so long as tbe railway companies will accept without demur IS or 15 small trunks, hampers, bundles and other mitoellaneons packages as the raii-.. tickets, and an lone aa an Enp- jisj, cab driver will pile all this stuff on the top or box seat of bis cab and carry it and tho family attached to it i from their home to tbe railway statiou ior nan a crown. Every now and again an Englishman who ha been in America writes to The Times concerning the advantages of the check system as it is worked on the American railways, but all these letters go unheeded. English railway managers have a dread of iunovntionR, especially If tho Innovation comes from America, and the English people, who are accus tomed to tho scramblo for baggage at tho railway stations, are quite satisfied with tho existing system, or rather kick of system. On tho whole, they save a little money by it. English railway companies allow a third class passenger 50 pounds cf personal baggage, and a first class passenger double that amount Any excess is supposed to be paid for, but a tip cf threepence to u porter will usually see tho whole traveling impedi menta cf u f.tmity carried straight front the cab to tho train and insure that no questions us to weight aro asked. It is usually the luck of a tip or a botile hint from a cabman who in not Katisilcl vin ia fare hat loutl to 8 cal1 at tbo , Tu V have shown, it is a system r.ndt-r which the passenger can nearly always get the beat of the railway company in the mat ter of excess of b&ggage, and noboriy gives any heed to tho frequent sngges- i tions that the American system of checks ahnnlri l. nrtm,Hvl ia ono or two directions the Enalipb companies arc now followins; tbo cxtim- plo of tho American railway companies.

On some of the trains all tho car riages aro connected with vestibules like "thcEO on American railways. On other trains there uro two or threo cor ridor cars, whilo the rest of tho carriegta are cf tho old fashioned style. Jt 13 characteristic cf tho English peoplo thct there is seldom any scrnmblo fcr places in tho new cars. Peoplo seem to like the old compartments better, a fact upon which tbo railway companies do not fail to lay stress when, after some outrage in a train, the companies are pressed by the board of trade to make tho use of corridor cara more general. I Tbo corridor trains are principally in nse between London and Scotland. On scores of tbo loug distance runs in Eng land all the carriages ore 3till of tbe old fashioned kind. Another fact conoerniny the corridor trains is typical of tho English char acter. New3boys aro not ciaried on them. The English railway newsboy is still kept sciuly to tho platforms at the railway stations. And he is likely to be kept there, for English people would vote it a nuisance- too great to be Imnio to be postered to buy books and confec tionery they do not want. Tho newsboy who travels with the train has few friends among Englishmen who bavo been in America. People grumble at tho prices charged by. tho monopolists Who control nil tho railway news and bookstalls in this country. But it is of ten put to tho credit cf tho monopo lists that their newsboys aro always at hand, bnt never muke themselves a nuisance, nor worry passengers who do not want tho bocks tbey are vending. One of the newest innovations from America in the English railway service concerns mileage books. These aro now in use on the Northeastern railway. They are being tried in a tentative fashion, and so far are issued only to first class travelers. The reductions in fare are quite considerable, and the con ditions prescribed by the company are easy. li the experiment works satisfac torily, it will soon be extended to third class passengers on tho Northeastern, and, once well established on one large trunk line, the system will soon become general. London Letter. HORSE MEAT DEFENDED. Aa Authority Claim Prejodtea Prohibits IU General Lae. Everybody is aware that the borse is the cleanest of all domestic animals. It will not eat anything but good, healthy food, nor drink any but pure water. A horse would rather starve than swill the rotten stuff often given to pigs and cattle. It is nothing but prejudice that prevents us from eating horseflesh. A similar prejudice retarded the in troduction of the potato 100 years ago. Today we could not get along without it Yet the prejudice against potatoes can be explained. The people bad been told that this American root caused fever and rendered the ground unfit for all other crops. The exception against horseflesh is not even founded upon any objection to its properties. It is solely due to the influence of the church. Tha clergy did everything possible to pre vent the newly converted Saxons from returning to their heathenish practices and prohibited the nse of horseflesh to stop the sacrifices to Odin and Thor. A long time passed before these sacrifices were altogether discontinued. The nations of Europe have suffered enormous loss by this prohibition of horseflesh. Especially from the humani tarian noint of vii'W thvrt")? deplorable. JSiUions cf people are forced to live on potatoes and similar food wanting in nutritive qualities, while millions of pounds of the very best meat are washed. Horseflesh is the most nourishing of all meats, and its taste ia hardly to be distinguished from that of beef. Tho flesh of a horse fed on oats has a smell similar to gooeeflesh. The fat is preferable to lard. Above all, it should be remembered that no flesh is so healthy as that of the horse. Trichi nosis and rfmtlT diseases are unknown in homes. Tubercnloais, very conicrn in cattle, is very rare in boraes. Frank farter Zeltnng. PRIVATE BRADLAUGH. Haw Ha Bebaked aa OSeer Tv Bis TJaaaatlemenly Cendaet. One of Messrs. Caswell's publications says that the late Charles Bradhmgli, when in the British army, was orderly room clerk, and a newly arrived officer once entered the room where he was sit ting at work and addressed to him some discourteous order. Private Brcd langh took no notice. Tbe order was re peated with an oath. Still no move ment Then it came again, with some foul words added. The young soldier rose, drew himself to bis full height, and, walking np to the officer, bade him leave the room or be would throw him oat He went accordingly, but hi a few moments the grounding of muskets was heard outside, tbe door opened, and the colonel walked in, accompanied by the officer. It was clear that the private soldier had committed an act for which he might be court martialed, and as he said once, "I felt myself in a tight place." Tho officer made his accusation, and Private Bradlaugh was bidden to explain. . Eo asked that tho officer should stato the exact words in which ho hod addressed him, and the other, who had, after all, a touch of honor in him, gave the effeurivo sentence vv-d for word. ThenPrivato Bradlaugh said, addressing the colonel, that tbe officer's memory must surely be at fault in the whole matter, as hccor.ld not have n.cd language so unbecoming to an officer and a gentleman. - The colonel turned ia tho officer with the dry remark: "I think Private Bradlaugh is right There must bo somo mistake, " and ho left the room.

We are willing to admit that the Japanese csn give us points on various industries and mechanical arts, but we have scarcely been prepared for the an nouncement that they are ahead of cs i in certain points in surgery. Antiseptic dressings aro among the absolutely nee-! essory surgical nppliimces. Thero is more or leas uifhculiy in preparing them, and they are for tho most port expensive, and many of them are not at all satisfactory. During tho war Jap anese surgeons used tho ashes of rice straw as a dressing for wounds, and met with most remarkable success. The wound was cleaned, the ashes applied freely, then sublimate gauzo or linen was used as a wrapping. These ashes are said to bo a perfect luitiseptic, and owe these qualities to the presence of potassium carbonate. English and Amer ican surgeons are trying this dressing, and if it is as successful in their bauds as in tho Japanese, it ccitaiuly is a wonderful stride in antiw ptic surgery. and is unquestionably the cheapest dressing that has ever been prepared. New Vcrk Ledger. SPIDERS IN BATTLE. THEY CONDUCT THEMSELVES WITH ALMOST HUMAN INTELLIGENCE. A Fight to tbe Flaiah Brtween a Black Tiger Spider and a Pair I'rom tho Gra) II ill Tribe The Hoot by Bound All "Pat to Sleep," Though the Black Worn In tbe qniet laboratory of a Ninth street chemist tbe other day there was enacted a little tragedy which afforded a demonstrated lesson in the etiquette of duelism as it is conducted among the spiders. ' Few realize the intelligence these inconspicuous little creatures often display, and in fact few people besides scientists go to the trouble of spending an hour or so watching them. The doctor espied a spider in the cor ner of the laboratory window silL Ho procured a wide mouthed jar, and with a stick endeavored to push the spider into it The insect turned savagely on it and darted quickly np the stick to ward his hand. Stick and spider were dropped immediately on to the sill, from which in another instant the crea ture was scooped into the jar. He lay sullen and bunched np at the bottom. His body was fully three-quarters of an inch long, tho thorax mottled black and green, tho abdomen pursy, round and marked with well defined stripes of block and yellow ; the legs not very long, bnt stout, hairy and ending in unusually strong, double claws, while the head was armed with a pair of shining black mandibles that looked like small steel pinchers. One of the neighbors said afterward that it wns a "tiger spider," aud there was no ques tion as to the aptness of the name. His behavior was so ngly and fierce that Le mado a good subject for testing tho pugnacity of spiders with their kind. The doctor was familiar with his owu borne, and having mado the capture ho went up Into his own garret, where the walls and corners were profusely deco rated with "will you walk into my par lor" contrivances. He singled out a typical web and proceedod. The mouth of the web was opened out over quite a considerable area aud ran back as a narrow tube, the wholo being like tho most delicately woven gray white silk. Throwing a tempting bait into the web in the shape of a fly, the doctor had no difficulty in sweeping two gray spiders into another jar. He got a deep sided salad bowl and dumped the gray spiders in. They at once began running around the flat bot tom, making wild dashes np the sides and tumbling over each other in their excited efforts to escape. As soon as the tiger spider was shaken out of his pickle jar into the bowl the gray spiders ceased their wild actions and took up a crouching position at one side of the bowl bottom. The tiger spi der made no effort to escape, but after one or two rapid reconnoiters of his sur roundings squatted just across from and faoing tho hill tribcrs. Tho first offensive movements came from the gray spiders. These were in the nature of slow advances and retreats along the circumference line of tbe bowl bottom, with the evident intention of taking the tiger spider on the flank. At each advance, however, the tiger spider sat up, resting on his four posterior and middle feet, while the two anterior legs were stretched ont like the arms of a wrestler, and tbo strong caliper shaped jaws were opened to their fullest extent Suddenly one of the spiders made a characteristic bnt fatal duah. He seemed actually to leap at the big spider. But quick as the hill spider was, the tiger spider was equally so. As the long drab spider darted in, the big black and yel low fellow sprung np and faced him. The next instant they closed, and in a moment three of the hill spider's legs lay on the glass, and the tiger spider, holding his enemy in a be?rlika bus. waa'baryisg bis manfiibles iii the eth er's throat The killing had not been done, how ever, without receipt of injury on both idea. One yellow and black leg lay with the three drab ones, and there were two drops of blaok juice on the pursy abdomen of the tiger spider, which showed where the gray spider bad punted bis jaws in tbe rush. Ueanwhile, too, the second gray spi der bad not been idle, bat was circling round and about the struggling pair. Then, seeing his opportunity, he dashed in, only to be faced by the burly fight er, who, to meet the new attack unen cumbered, threw the body of the dead com bo taut from him with a gesture that was almost human. The clinch did not follow so quickly this time. The gray spider succeeded in getting in and away, clipping off an other yellow and black leg as he did so, but in the second rush he was caught, and the tiger spider's Jaws were locked in his throat So ended the fight The tiger spider held on to bis second corpse so long and quietly that I thought him dead also, until I stirred him with my pen, when he staggered furiously against it, opened his jaws and rolled over, a corpse.
