The fluctuating transportation rates that threaten the prosperity of the far mer. the manufacturer and the merchant alike, in consequence of the supreme court decision declaring railroad com binations for maintaining uniform charges illegal, illustrate afresh the utter inability of the government to solve the transportation problem so long as tiie railroads remain in the hands of private corporations. The government ! has an opportunity of taking the first step in the direction of public ownership by acquiring the Union Pacific Railroad. But congress hesitates to commit itself to direct governmental control of the means of transportation for fear that such a policy tends towards socialism That fear is ungrounded. Socialism contemplates the abolition of competi tion, while government railroads are ad vocated because railroading is a non competitive business, and interferes with the free competition of ordinary industries. Every business of whatever kind be longs to one of three classes—that in which returns diminishes the labor and capital invested in the enterprise are in creased, that in which the returns are constant, or that of increasing returns. Agriculture, for example, is an indus try of diminishing returns. After a cer tain amount of capital and labor has been put on a field of grain, it does not pay to invest more. Similarly, the quantity of land which one man can profitably own and cultivate under a system of free labor is limited, as is shown by the disappearance of the large plantations at the South and the bonanza wheat farms at the West. Commerce and manufactures are in dustries of constant returns. The sup ply of the raw material of their products is unlimited, and unusual profits must depend on superior skill in management and minor economics. These two classes of business are subject to competition— except when artificial barriers, as pro tective tariffs and patent laws, intervene —and comprise the vast majority of in dustries. To the remaining class —that of in creasing returns—belong all natural monopolies, as railroads, gas supply, street car service, highways and streets, electric lighting, canals, bridges, light* houses, ferries, docks, harbors, natural navigations, postal services, telegraphs, telephones, etc. The cost of the plunt in the case of a railroad, for instance, is comparatively great. But as the increasing volume of business taxes its capacity, the facilities of the road can he enlarged by slight additions of capital. The larger the business the smaller in proportion is the cost of service. To protect its own future, a large road is forced lo make war on a rival of less business, and the sooner the war is precipitated the easier will be the inevitable victory. In the meantime disaster overtakes the com petitive industries, which depcud for prosperity on stability of transportation rates, and when the war finally ends in consolidation, as it invariably does, rates must be increased to cover the waste of capital. * "Have you noticed the handsome ad vertisement I had put on yonder fence?" inquired a merchant of one of hit custo mers recently. "No." replied the latter, "hut if you will send the fence to my house 1 will take pleasure in reading it. I read newspapers and have no time to run about and hunt up advertisements on street corners." And the merchant scratched the back of his head reflec tively. A.

American Manhood, j An elevator in a New York city build ! lng broke the other day, and the plat form fell from the tenth stoj-y to the i /round. There were nine men and one woman on it at the time of the acci dent. The leg of one man was broken; the arm of another; and all were in jured more or lees "jy the terrible shock. The woman escaped unhurt, it ia said, because the men all stood close together, and, lifting her above them in the air, aaved her firom any concus sion more severe than a jar. Each man r .here must have felt that there was a chance of his death in the next minute. Tbe prompting in. these men that led them with one impulse to save her was, | in the opinion of a Youth's Companion I writer, DO! because she was especially pretty, or young, or old, but simply be cause # she woe a woman. Nor did the act receive any mairked notice from the newspapers. It is natural and usual for American men to protect any helpless i woman. No race, ancient or modern, , has given to tbe weaker sex the univer sal honor paid to It by the American man. A witty woman with qufek-see ing eyea and keen perceptions, who had j traveled much, said: "An Englishman Is not rude to a woman, if she belongs to ! i higher class than his own; a French man compliments her if she is young ! and pretty; but an American takes care ' | of her though she be old and ugly and poor, because he believes her to be gentler and better than himself." The American woman should consider long before she risks the losing of this pre rogative by becoming a loud, boastful, j weak Imitation of a man. He was & Maine clergyman, and, of course, somewhat unacquainted with new-fangled forms of vice, to say the least. Accordingly, says an eastern con temporary, when he espied a nickel-in the-slot machine at a seaside resort last summer, his curiosity was aroused and he dropped In a nickel. Luck was com ing the clergyman's way that day, and, to his intense horror, ten nice cigars rolled out of the maehine in response to the titillations of its interior as the nickel rattled through it. In fact, the j good man was so scandalized that he took the cigars away and burned lliem—one at a time. The good people of Michigan, says the Detroit JournaJ, have given the life- | imprisonment penalty for intentional murder a fair test. It has failed to prove its efficacy as a deterrent, and is wofuily impotent to protect society. A bill will be presented to the legislature I again this session providing for the restoration of capital punishment. It 1 will lie antagonized by the opponents of retributive justice, am! we shall hear re- ■ peated the sentimental arguments j which have hitherto defeated the pass age of like measures. A member of tbe Minnesota legisla ture has introduced a bill which aims to I deprive the gentler sex of one of Its privileges—that of sending flowers and other tokens of sympathy to criminals. It provides that anyone, except a hus band, wife, child, parent, brother or sister, who indulges in this practice shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and on conviction shall be punished by im prisonment for from 15 to 90 days, or by a fine of from $25 to SIOO. A St. Louis paper recently gave an | uctount of the organization of a society .of young women in Carthage, Mo., i whose mission was to raise money for i Cuba. The atory was pure fiction, but the came, picture and residence of the ulleged leader were published. She re ceived to many letters offering help and encouragement that she organized | such a club among her friends, and it is meeting with great success. Muskegon's whist club, the member ship of which is mode up of 13 young women, has startled Michigan by an nouncing a continuous vaudeville per formance for charity. The young w omen proclaim that they will keep up the entertainment as long as anybody remains in the bail, and have not flinched at the threat of four young men to come with a lunch basket pre pared to stay all night. A wedding ceremony took place in 'l'renton, Mo., the other day which was u notable one for the reason that both the contracting parties had passed the age of three score and ten and that the marriage was the culmination of a courtship that had extended over a period of more than 40 years. A dealer in paper-backed books who carries an immense stock rej>orls that tbe demand for "James Boys" literature shows no sign of abatement. And as j 'ong as this demand continues so long will the law be kept busy with emula tors of the gory-handed outlaws. , The women of Kansas secured more public offices In the last election than j did the women of Utah or Colorado— -20 county superintendencies of instruc tion, and all the offices from mayor to chief of police in two cities. It ia 6aid that during the recent holi days every single girl in tbe town of Brookstown, Ky M was married. There won't be any more surprise parties in that town until another batch of girls grows up. Lowell, Me., has a woman justice of the peace who is occasionally called upon to officiate at weddings. She never irhues the bride. THE HOTEL CHILD.

A DANGEROUS MONSTER. BY MEREDITH NUGENT. § SUDDEN crashing of the bushes and the infuriated rhi noceros looms into ing moment for the hunter us the ugly monster, bleeding from ever so many wounds, charges upon him with all liia might. Again the rifle rings out, but if the shot be not in the neck, and fatal, his horse will be dis emboweled and himself fall a prey tc the fury of the monster. He who would hunt the rhinoceros must be brave indeed, for ho has in that ill looking beast a foe that knows nc fear, not because of its innate courage but because it has not brains enough to run out of danger. Could a granite bowlder l>e suddenly infused with life and of its own free will go whirling Ihrough the country, smashing every thing in its path, it would in many re spects resemble the headlong charge of an angered rhinoceros. Fatally wounded it will not fall; a shower ol bullets wiTI not deter it, and only death itself will put. an end to the maddenee" impetuosity of its frenzied charge. II will sometimes attack an enemy with out waiting to l>e attacked; neither it the presence of an enemy always noes sary, for it will rush in wanton fury on logs, trees, and other senselesa things when once it is fairly aroused. Like a I mad bull, it becomes perfectly frantic at the sight of any unusual object. A red blanket will enrage it terribly, as one intrepid hunter discovered to his cost. In this instance the blanket. ' which was part of the camp equipage was discovered by a wandering rhi noceros, who at once savagely charged upon thi.s bright object, piercing it through with his great horn. The amiability of the creature was not in creased when he realized that after driv ing his horn through the blanket hi could not shake the latter off. lie had suddenly acquired an unlooked-foi headdress, which not. only prevented him from seeing, but greatly interfered with the movement of his forelegs. Oil he started, however, as best lie could blanket and all. Never in all this wide world Nvas there a more incongruous ob ject than thi.s maddened brute, rushing blindly through the forest, hither and thither, waving aloft, the fiery token ol his rage. The beasts of the field fled before him in wild dismay; even the birds of the air were panic-stricken at the sight of so unusual a performnnct in their native woods. There is no tell ing when lie would have stopped lir not a well-directed shot severed an nr tery, so that, his life-blood gradually ebbed away, putting an end to about as ludicrous a situation as one could wel | imagine. Hardly less absurd was the Kaffir na ; tive, who, while a member of our hunt ing party, became o excited over the chn.se that he seized an opportunity tc jump upon the back of the fleeing rhi noceros. It is needless to say that, the native went through so many weird experiences in such a very short time that, though he came out alive, he win thoroughly discouraged from trying any more such experiments. Of course, the great creature became fairly terrorized at so unaccustomed a burden, and started off at n terrific pace i for the brush. Every moment the rider was borne farther and farther frnm all hope of relief. To have tumbled off would have meant instant dealh, for the rhinoceros would not Uave nbssed such j an opportunity to have charged upon him. To stay on was not only difficult j but was fast growing impossible. On galloped the brute, bucking and smashing iuto everything in its wild en i deavor to free itself; but through all ! the native held on as though, like Ma- I zepjNi, he was bound to liis steed. The limit of human endurance, however, was fast being reached, and the savage, from sheer exhaustion, could not hope to stay on much longer. There was just I one chance to escape, nrul only one,and | that was for the native to throNv his blanket ahead of the rhinoceros, in ' hopes that the animal would mistake 11 for himself. The opj>ortunity came; lliey were whirling rapidly toward a clump of bushes, wl on the native, with n mighty effort, flung his blanket fur onto the lower branches. The ruse was a success. The rhinoceros thought he had his tormentor sure, for with nil the fury he could muster he rushed madly upon the blanket and tore it into shreds. Meanwhile the native had nimbly f.lipped off the animal's back and beat a more than hn*ty retrept to friend? and home. Such good fortune, however, rarely happens; it is the providential core of focls. Only too often does the true hunter, the man of nerve—who de serves success —meet with the fate ol the young Englishman, who, though a scion of nobility, showed his Anglo- Saxon ancestry in his love of adventure. His quest for big game had led liirn into a rough country which white men had never before penetrated. Accompanied by a friend, also an Englishman, he was riding merrily along, when lie was sur prised to see a very giant of a rhinoceros right ahead of him. Here was big game and no mistnke. "By Heaven!" he palled out to his friend, "that fellow has a bighorn! ] must get him, sure!" and immediately tired at the brute. lie might just as well have fired at a stone wall, for the ball had no effect on the rhinoceros whatever other than to startle it. On the second shot the rhinoceros con cluded it was time for disappearing, and forthwith plunged into a dense tangle oi' undergrowth. In vain did the men urge their horses through the tali brush in search of the giant beast, but no where was he to beseem .They scoured the country round about in all direc tions, but to no purpose—the monster had evidently vacated the neighbor hood. Finally the young nobleman, having lost nil hope of ever seeir.g the animal again, gave up the chase, and was quietly sitting in the saddle wait ing for his friend to come up, when crash through the buslie: came the big rhinoceros at terrific speed. Instantly the hunter saw his peril; quickly he spurred his horse to flight, but too late, for ere the faithful animal could fairly start, the rhinoceros had disemboweled him. The force of the charge was so great as to cause the horse to make a complete somersault. The rider was violently thrown to the ground, and be fore the dazed man could even attempt to rise, the beast hud gored him to death. All this happened so unexpectedly that the second rider, for the moment, could not realize what was taking place; and when at last he did come to his senses, it was only to see the mangled remains of his friend, over which stood the rhinoceros in savage guard. No bullet ever sped its vengeful way more surely than the one now aimed at the fiendish murderer, and none with more fatal effect. As the sharp orach of the rifle split the sultry air, the great brute Tell dead, right in his tracks and par tially over the prostrate form of his vic tim. # Although the horns of the rhinoceros do not look so formidable in themselves when they are driven forward by the great weight of the rhinoceros a more THE RHINOCEROS DISEMBOWELED HIM. frightful weapon does not exist. Some of these animals are armed with two horns, the front one occasionally meas uring four feet in length, .lust think of such a wenpon, backed by hundreds and hundreds of pounds of muscului brute force. Among the barbarians of Asia and Africa, the rhinoceros is used on ferstivr days to fight for the amusement of n savage public. Special am phi theaters are built for the purpose, and royalty sanctions the combats by their pres ence. Seated in all the luxury of bar baric splendor, and earefullj* protected from the ferocious boasts in the arena the dusky monarch looks enjoyably on while the animals struggle for victory. Two of the ugliest beasts that can be procured are entered for the fight, and after they have boon tormented to a state bordering on frenzy, are pitted against each oilier. In order that the public may be enabled to follow the movements of each of the brutal gladi ators, one will be painted red or green, and the other yellow, white or blue. The contest, as might well be imagined, is of n most repulsive nature; chargi and countercharge follow each other in quick succession, while native attend ants stand conveniently by and thro an buckets of cold water over the animal? to keep their fury at fever heat. The fight, lasts until both beasts are ex hausted, unless one, by a lucky stroke thrusts his horn into his opponent's throat, which gives him the victor?.— N. Y % Ledger.
