Barrett, says Success, were close personal
friends of Stuart itobson. During the
"off" season of affairs theatrical Kobson
oftn entertained his distineuished col
leagues at his summer home on Long
Island. - On one such occasion the trio
after dinner took their ' seats on the
piazza, when Booth, as usual, lapsed
into silent reyeie, while the others
began to relate stories anent profes
sional experiences. Finally the con
versation turned on dead-heads."
Rpbson had just finished an e8ecially
funny tale about one of these manage
rial bete nOirswhen the voice of Booth
was heard thus:
f 'l think, gentlemen, that I can 'give
you an anecdote about one of the tribe
that is probably unique." V
"Let's hear if, Edwin, by all means,"
saiu isarrett. -
Booth fixed his somber eyes on the
sunset and began: "It was during the
hrst visit that I made to the bouth after
the close of the Civil War. We were
playing in a little town in Alabama.
In my mail one morning I found a
letter which ran somthing like. this :
'Dear Sir: My wife und self have
alwavs been great admirers of you.
We want o see you play very much,
but cannot afford to buy our tickets.
Will you please send us a couple of
seats? I am sure you will not refuse
this request when I tell you that I am
the United States soldier tnat snot ana
killed your brother, who assassinated
President Lincoln.
' "I investieated and found that the
man's statement was correct." .
i Booth's auditors gasped as his tragic
tones boomed out the unexpected
sequel to the tale. There was a dead
silence for a full minute. Then Robson
managed to ask":
v'What did you do, iAlwinr
: "I sent him the tickets," answered
the actor, his eves, still fixed on the
glowing western horizon.
; The grewsome recital had been made
without a trace of emotion save for a
deepening of the gloom which marked
Booth's faeial expression faom the day
of the tragedy. Robson told the
writer that the actor unquestionably
realized that if his brother had reached
Washington alive he would have met a
terrible fate at the hands of the mob,
and hence he felt grateful to the man
who, : with a rifle ball, averted this
possibility.

New Railway Wonder.
Atlanta Journal.
It has not been long since about a
mile a minute was considered the prac
tical limit of railwav speed. Now
greater speed than thtt is attained
almost every day on many railroads in
the UnitM States and there are some
on which trains go 60 miles an hour
on regular schedules: This is flying,
hut it does not satisfy the ambiton to
annihilate snace.'
. The faster we go the greater the craze
for still more rapid locomotion seems
to become,
Tlie most ambitious attempt in this
direction is soon to be made in Eng
land. V
Some months ago a company, applied
for a. franchise to operate a railway
I hptween Manchester and Liverpool.
Electricity is to be the motive power.
Ttailwav charters are alwavs hard to
ffet from - parliament and there was
special difficulty in this case, owing to
the fact that the company seeking the
franchise announced that- it intended
to run its trains at speeds ranging from
inn vmi miles an- nour. xnia
seemed to many members of the parha
mentary committee tobe reckless and
dangerous and the charter was held up
quite a while. The projectors, however,
succeeded in convincing the committee
ihat thev will construct their line so
that 100 or even 150 miles an hour will
be no more risky than 50 to 60 miles
an hour iiOn ordinary railroads. The
franchise has been granted and the
wonderful railroad will be. completed
within a few months. i
The trains are to be run on one
rail. There is a short line in Ger
m inv hnilt on this nlan On which a
jua . aM X 7
1 0iPl nf on miles an hour has been
occasionally obtained, but the proposed
English railroad will average a much
grater rate than that. If its builders are
not greatly mistaken in their calcula
tions they will make the fastest of our
steam railway trains Beem like slow
coaches indeed.

Thw horrid, torrid weather reminds
me of what Henry Ward Btcher said
in his chorch one sweltering day in
July. He took no text. He wiped the
lwnq4ration from his brow and look
ing solemnly at the large congregation,
said: "It is hot today. It is damned
hot Tt i oj hot an hpli!" Everr-
Utdy was amazed and shocked until he
added, "That is the language I heard
two young men use at the door of the
church as I passed them. - My young
friends, it is not as hot as hell." men
n a low. earne-st tone he pictured the
torments of hell and the certain fate of
the wicked until the atmosphere of the
oburch seemed to be cool and pleasant
in comparison. .-'".The ladies ceased to
move their fans and everybody ?was
still and solemn as a funeral. It was
something like Jonathan Edwards at
Northampton when he cot his hearers
so wrought up and alarmed that they
groaned in fear and grasped tne posts
and braces to keep from sinking into
hell, and another preacher in the pul-
nit becrped Mr. Edwards to stop. -aup,
Air. Kdwards: stoD now'and tell them
of the mercy and love of God." - What
wonderful power is in tne wows or an
eloquent, earnest man.- Mr. Beecher
was all of that a gifted, eloquent,
man. I heard him preach twice be
fore the war and was profoundly im
pressed. I looked upon him as the
impersonation oi tne man oi uou.
Later on, when he began his vindictive
war upon the south and said that
Sharp's rifles were better than Bibles
for John Brown in Kansas and it was
. rime to shootat a slaveholder and
miss hinv I wonder at my infatuation
with the man and exciaimea witn
Isaiah, "How are thej mighty fallen,"
And still later when Tiiton charged
him with alienating and seducing his
wife and it took two months to try the
case and the jury two days to make up
a verdict, which virtually said, "He is
not guilty, but he must not do so any
more," I was mortified at my own
weakness in becoming ma idolater ana
resolved to worship no man again while
he lived. A great man's character can
not be made up until after he is dead.
But I was ruminating how easy it is
for a young man to say damn and
rimn it. T'H be damned and even to
take themame of God in vaiq. Pamn
is a more convenient and expressive
word ,thandoggon or dingnation or
it shows a defiance of the
devil and a self-conceit in the man who
uses it. But it is a very handy exple
tive and when a young man gets in the
habit of UBing it he rarely reforms. He
knows that it is not. good manners, for
he does not use it in the presence of
ladies or preachers or his parents.
Nevertheless there are some good peo
ple who think damn it without saying
it. I heard a good story the other day
on Colonel Livingston, our member of
r-nnoTess from the Atlanta district. Last
nnmmpr lift WR8 sent, over to West- Vir
ginia to speak and help the Democrats
in their canvass. He ventured into a
pretty hot Republican town and was
haranpiiinp ' and electrifying a large
audience, and whilecarifying the Re
publicans and this Ugbting administra
tion a soft, half done Irish potato took
him kcrzip right between tne eyes, xi
knocked off his spectacles and flattened
into mush all over his classic counten-
ance. It surprised ana snocKeu mm,
of course. Recovering his glasses he
wiped the sticky stuff from his face and
said with excited tone, -Juy inenas, j.

"What byme were you sinciog. Miss
Mollyf asked the Judg. Jihe amiled
and said it was "The Lord Will Pro
vide." The judge charged th jury
very mildly, and told them that an as
sault implied malice, etc., but as the
jury couldent see where the malice
came in. they came back with this ver
dict: "We, the jury, find the defend
ant not guilty, as there was no maik
tr hate in it, and we recommend him
tn th merev of the court." This (Story
reminds me of John Riley's verdict in
the Pass case. Good old Jonn Biley,
th foreman of The Rome Courier's
pressroom for years and years, and the
foreman of the lunr in tue case oi tne
state against Romulus Pas for bog
stealing. Pass had been stispected of
killing Wallis Warren's shoats as they
ran in the woods, and so Wallis laid for
him and one evening about dusk, when
he heard a rifle shot, he slipped up and
caught Pass in the very act of putting
the shoat in a sack. Wallis dident go
to the war and managed to save his
stock. Pass went, and left his wife
and three little children to the mercy
of God and the community. When
he returned he found there wa nothing
left to live on, and one of the children
had died. Judge Wright volunteered
to defend him, and-introduced no evi
dence, but had the last speech. I will
never forget the tender pathos of that
speech his picture of a poor , soldier
returning home to hnd.aesoianon ana
despair. He never alluded to the evi
dence, but had the jury and the court
in tears. The judge charged them as
fairly as he could, and they retired. Ji
a brief time they came in with this ver
dict: "Whereas, the late, unhappy war
reduced many of our brave soldiers and
their families o want ana ioverty . oy

It is said that the Pennsylvania Rail

to build the Winston-Wadesboro rail
road. As is known by many , the Penn
sylvania owns a controlling interest in
the Norfolk and Western connection

latter roadi This is just what the Nor
folk and Western, as well as Winston
Salem; has been wanting for years.
The amount of coal shipped' from the
mines in Virginia and West Virginia
and given to the Southern Railway
here would be worth a great deal to the
new road. "
Another reason given for' the belief
that the Pennsylvania and Norfolk and
Western are interested in the plan to
build a road south from Winston-Salem
is the improvements being made on

hand the colonel resumed his broken
remarks, but declares that he never
came as near cursing since he joined
the church.
This thincr of cursing is of very an

by proxy. - Balak, the "king of Moab,
hired Balaam to curse Israel, and some
of us veterans remember when we, too,
wanted to hire a cussin man to expend

one of the disciples, r It is probable
that he said "I'll be damned if I am,"
or perhaps worse. Soldiers and sailors
have in all ages been profane the very
class that are in greatest' peril and
should have the greatest reverence for
their maker. Uncle Toby says 4 'Out
army swore terribly in Flankers." And
Uncle Toby himself , swore an oath
when he found the sick soldieY lying
and dving at his gate. "He shall not
die. bv God," he said, and the "accus

oath and blushed as he gave it in. The
recording angel as he wrote it down
dropped a tear upon the word and
blotted it out forever." That is beauti

multitude of sins.
