THE BOSTON SUBWAY
SATISFACTORY SOLUTION OF THE
STREET CAR PROBLEM.
Contention of Trafllc In tli? Iluny Streets
of the Uub Relieved by Underground |
Trolley Lines?Tunnels Tlmt Am Light, |
Clean uud Attractive.
It is now possible to cross Tromont
street, Boston, at any point opposite tho
Common and at any time of day without
loss of life or limb. Tho new subway has
brought about tho change.
It 1 s an old tradition that tho fathers of
Boston, when thoy laid out tho city, let
the. streets follow the winding cow paths.
At any rate, the streets ius thoy exist today
urc very crooked and must of them aro
very narrow. This was all right in Revo?
lutionary times, but when the city grow
miles beyond tho Common und spread it?
self out to tho south and west; when busi?
ness centered itself along tbu lower ends
of Washington and Trentont streets, and
when dozens of street car tracks usurped
tho narrow roadways, then the Bostonlans
wished their ancestors bud not stuck so
closely to the cow paths.
Probably no other city on the continent,
was ever so badly allllctcd with a conges?
tion of trnllic as tho Hub haslieon for
many yea: . . Some of tho most important
street ear linen skirt tho south and east,
cornets ol the Common on Boylston mid
Tremont streets. When I he chango was
made hum hoc. epov.vr to trolley, matters
grew worse. Then tho poles and the tan?
gle of overhead wires made that historic.
breathing spot look liko a pieco of dingy,
green billiard cloth which had become fray?
ed and tuttered around the edges. So after
much wrangling in tho legislature and
courts it w;ls decided tu build the subway
and put the trolley cars underground.
A large portion of the work bus already
lieen accomplished and Boston is delight?
ed with the result. The first thing a Hus?
ton man asks a visitor from Now York,
Chicago or elsewhere is:
"Been through tho subway yet'/ Let's
see?you huven't one in your place, have
you?"
It is, in fact, a triumph of engineering
anil well worth a visit. Then! arc throe
open cut.s where tho trolley curs enter the
subway. One Is out on Tremont street
whore Shawmut avenue comes in. Hero
the tracks from each of those jmorough
fares dive into the tunnel. Another is In
the Public gardens, where the cars com?
ing down Boylston street take tho under?
ground tlip. The third is at tho northerly
end of the subway, just beyond-Hay mar?
ket square and in front of the new Union
terminal railroad station into which the
Fitchburg, Hoston und Maine, Eastern
und other roads run. Theru is u. loop hern
DOSTON'S NEW SUBWAY INCLINE IN THE Plin
LIC <JAKl)i;X.
ns most of the t rolley lines inako it their
terminus, and, the subway being four
tracked, they disgorge their passengers
and take the back track up town.
Including the inclines or open onto, tho
subway has a total length of 1 % miles and
will contain about live miles of track. At
present the branch down Boylston street
along the Common side and the main line
down Tremont to Park street are in oper?
ation. The Shawmut avenue branch and
tho northerly end of the main lino will be
finished within the next eight months.
Ground was broken for the subway in
April, 18115. The sum appropriated was
$7,ii(?0,000 and, wonderful to relate, tho
transit commissioners say that it is proba?
ble the cost will bo about $1,000,000 less
than that sum.
No groat difficulties have been encoun?
tered thus far in digging this big liplo In
the ground. Of course there were count?
less sewers, water pipes, gas pipes, electric
wire conduits and the like und some -III
inch water mains at an inconvenient level
proved rather hnrxl to handle, but n? un?
expected conditions arose to delay tho
work. The main trunk of the subway
runs under the wide walk or mall on tho
east side of the Common, anil when the
excavations were being made the bones of
hundreds of old Puritans were disturbed.
This raised a bowl of righteous Indigna?
tion,and the sncredness of the long forgot
burying ground was harped upon for
weeks. Hut the commissioners quieted
the reverent patriots by collecting nil tho
bones and roiuterrlng them in the holy
ground of the Common, with a nice monu?
ment to mark the spot.
The tleepest jioint of tho subway is on
Boylston street, where the south bound
t racks are laid lit) feet lielow the surface,
but the average depth is 14 feet. The tun?
nel itself is a giant bore with ribs of steel
mid casings! of cement, asphalt, concrete
and masonry. The roof is a series of
arches und the floor Is concave, with
drains at the bottom. As tho drnins are
below the level of the sewers, jilts have
been established at Intervals, and when
thev are filled with water automatic elec?
trical pumps are started, which empty
them Into tho sewers above.
Perhaps yon imagine that Boston's sub?
way is a tlark, damp, ill smelling place. It
is nothing of the sort. The entrances to
the stations aro handsome structures of
stone, with glass roofs. The only fault, to
be found with them is that thev remind
cs?blc. It makes food shortened

THE DRUMMER'S STORY.
Tic Tnllicd About a Carlond of Nntrnc;;*
lie Ilait Sold.
" Drummers are proverbially great ro?
mancers," said John A. tioodloo, a l'hila
dolphin commercial traveler. "Thereseems
to ho something In our mode of life that
makes us sou and hear things that no other
human beings ever thought of before, and
6o we can listen to each other with patience
and forbearance when ordinary people
won't give us an audience. Of course we
don't believe half tho things we tell each
other, especially about our phenomenal
sales ami growing trade, though each real?
izes that it is pleasant for the other fellow
to believe that ho Is being credited with
trot Ii t. lllng. Put I Htruck an eastern
drummer at Kansas City a few weeks ago
who is entitled to the presidency of the
Amalgamated Association of Great Amer?
ican l.iars, and who will get my vote, even
if he has previously aroused my ooutuiupt,
When be runs for the ollicu.
"A crowd of us were sitting in a lintel
lobby there, lying about tho business we
were doing and the trade we were taking
away from our rivals, conscious that each
knew that every mother's son of us was
lying by the watch, but happy In tho belief
that maybe some ono in tho crowd would
accept our statements as truo. Tho east?
ern man was selling grocers' sundries, such
as spice, etc. When he told us that that
day be had sold a carload of nutmegs to a
linn in Sednlla, I looked nround tho crowd
to see how It was going. Every fellow had
his Hps puckered ready to whistle, but the
nutmeg man kept rattling away at such a
lively rate that we sat thoro In silence,
transfixed by bis magnificent gall. Now,
anybody with ordinary senso knows that a
carload of nutmegs would glut the market,
of the entire west for a wholo year and
that they could not bo disposed of in Se
dalla in a lifetime Still that, splendid
liar sat, there calm and serene and didn't
seem to know the magnitude of his own
romance."?St. Louis Republic.
MURDER EASY IN LONDON.
Takes i.ittte Skill to Kxcapo Detection,
Though the Police Are Good.
Coroners' juries in England aro even
more comical combinations than similar
bodies In tho States, and it is believed to
bu a grievance to ono of them when they
havu to return a verdict that does not per?
mit them to ascribe death to "suicide dur?
ing temporary Insanity." Tho Thames
swarms with barges that aro tho dealing
residences of families born and reared in
them.
While the bargeos uro as honest and rep?
utable as circumstances permit perhaps, a
largo proportion of thorn aro low and
brutal enough for tho committing of any
atrocity, and few things would bo easier
than the murder of n man or woman on
ono of thoso barges, with comparative cer?
tainty that the guilty person or persons
would never he brought to book without
tho aid of a hotruyer.
It is only necessary to recall tho series of
monstrous murders that gavo notoriety to
tho as yet unapprobonded "Jack tho Hip?
per" Co understand what superb facilities
tho alleys and courts, the river mid bridges,
the wharfs and docks of this glorious old
London offer to apprentice outthroats who
hnvo neither tho subtlety of tho De 'Medici
nor the bold skill of the Borgias. Yet the
town is well policed, and the detectives are
not all blockheads.?London Cor. Chi?

The Koran.
As to the Koran Mux Muller says: "P"Y
ery orthodox Turk is convinced that pen

Puritan, if not n Scotchman, nud his re?
ligious fanaticism can easily be amused.
We have beard much of 'Turkish atrocltien
In Bulgarin, but in war what nation la
free from that charge'/' If the Turk Is ?un?
speakable,' what were the Bulgarian Chris
j tians when they had gained the upper

Struck)1 The Turkish soldier Is certainly
taught by his present teachers that the
more Christians he kills in war the safer

that ho tries to make bis entry doubly
snre? But, like every other sacred ho ik,
tho Koran enjoins clemency toward cap?
tives aud prohibits particularly cruelty to
women and children It is a pity tlmr the
ordinary Turk does not know the Koran.

The Turk's Reply.
When Layard was British minister at
Constantinople, ho requested a pasha to
forward him some statistics about tho pop
ulatlon and commerce of his province and
recoived this reclr: " Mv illustrious friend

though I have passed all my days In this

TCCUMSEH AND THE COMET.
Ko Told tho Indiana It Wim Ills "Arrow
In Heaven."
Holl L. Jones lias converted the old fort
built in 180(5 at Fort Hawkins into a barn.
Although tho old log structure has stood
the storm of shot and shell and has been
exposed to all tho varying changes of
weather sincothat cnrlyperiod, not an iin
Bountl timber Is to be seen in it today.
The lugs of which it is constructed ere as
solid at.d sound as they were at first. The
fort was made of Gcorgiu heart pine, nnd
today it would burn like rosin if a match
were stuck Lo a rugged end.
The structure was built as a government
trading post or factory, whore deerskin;
Were purchased from tho Indians. During
the Creek war, from 1812 to 1814, it w.;> n
rendezvous and distributing point for the
United States soldiers, and Major Phil
Cook was In command. Anticipating the
dangers from tho torch of the treacherous
red man, the whites built the fort on a
high stone foundation, the lloor of the
wooden structure extending beyond the
rock walls. Portholes wcro made In the
extended door so as to shoot ludinns who
might try to scale tho walls to sot lire to
the woodwork.
During tho famous Creek war incident
by ToouiUBoh and hi9 brother, who was
known as tho prophet, this building was
In tho center of tho territory attacked.
Tcoutnsoh W08 one of the most, eloquent of
Indians, and when tho war was begun be?
tween Great Britain and the United States
he communicated with the tribes Iron
Florida to Canada, advising them that
then was the time for the Indians to re?
claim their lands from the whites. He
read in an eastern paper that a comet
would appear In the sky at a given time
Ho he notified the Indians that when his
arrow appeared In tho heavens it would ho
a sign for them to attack the whites. Old
Fore Hawkins perhaps was more vigor?
ously attacked in pursuance of this order
than was any other In the country.
Tho fort received Its naino from Hon.
Benjamin Hawkins, n senator from North
Carolinn, who hud been appointed a com?
missioner to Georgia to draw tip a treaty
with the Greek Indians.
The building which Mr. .Tones convert?
ed into a burn Is a historical curiosity, nnd
Interesting volumes might be written
about thu scenes and tragedies that have
taken place around it. ? Mucon Tolcgruph,

In the article on the Glengarry branch ]
of tho Mucdonalds James Logan, in hid
"Tho Clans of the Scottish Highlands,"
says:
"At tho castle of Aros tho lords of the
ialos held their parliament and passed the
regal decrees, which distant tribes worn
bound to respect. The simple form in
which important rights were conveyed by
these princes may be illustratud by the
following brief but binding charter, which
loses in translation from tho original
Gaelic: 'I, Donald, tho chief of tho Mac
donalds, sitting on thu bill of Dun Donald,
give the MucAudh a full right to Kilma
lioinag from this day till tomorrow, and
so on forovor.' A lesson was afforded by
odo of these lords which might greatly
benefit some Htioklers for proccdenoy. Ilu
bad at a banquet been placed by mistake
at the bottom of thu table, on perceiving
which ounsiderablo emotion arose among
tho company, who dreaded tho consequence
of tho supposed Indignity, but the great
ceaunclnnidb (head of his race) speedily
allayed their apprehensions by exclaiming
emphatically, 'Where thu Macdonuld si in.
know ye, gentlemen, that is the bend of
tho table.1 "

Tho "Book of Mormon" has been proved
to boa literary plagiarism, being a free para?

Solomon Spnlding, in 1816, tho manu?
script of which enmo into the possession
of Joseph .Smith, and be, sitting behind a
curtain, dictated it to Oliver Cowdery,
who, seated out of sinkt of tho reader,
wrote the matter us it. was given him.
Smith protended that tho book was discov?
ered to him by revelation and dug up from
the side of a hill not far from Palmyra, in
the county of Ontario, N. V. Tho claim
was made by Smith that tho writing on
the plates was engraved in "rcforim ;!
Bgyptnin," which he was unable to reu I
until magic speotacli s, which ho called his
Trim and Thiimmim. were given to him,
enabling him both lo read and translate
into English. Tho spectacles ami the
