An or the ren of Engine Compa elfth to Fifteenth he , there ¥ all that 2 not be part of ntage n the is planned — ee Weyler is Aground. The official and probably accurate an- nouncement that the Spanish cruiser Mar- quis de la Ensenada, with Captain-General Weyler on beard, ran aground at Cabanas, is a matter of cemparatively Httle im- pertance. The fact conspicuous, and to which the world’s attention is being di- rected, is that Weyler himself has run nd. He is much more dangerously ore than is the ada, for the En- ja will soon float without injury, but Weyler is on the rocks and is being for- saken by the tide to such an extent that a total wreck must surely result. A for- iGable-appearing vessel the warship r when ft left Spain and sailed to- ward Cuba. Of arms and ammunition and fighting men there was no lack, and the Spenish gcvernment had not hampered its ne officer with humane instruc- ording to the Spanish idea was plain to unquestionable vic- y. But the governmental and military theories were fatally defective. Despite all the cdvantages that money and muscle and crvelty arrayed on the decks of the Wey- the Cubans have steadily pressed on- ntil there now remains in Spanish on only a few territorially-insig- nt scraps of Cuban soil. It 1s only tural that Spain should come to the con- sion that the Weyler is of no use e‘ther for fight'ng or maneuvering, and it is not surprising to hear that spiked the tcbacco-export rifled-cannon the recoil of which weuld, had it been fired, eve rendered Cuben independence certam. Verily, the Weyler is aground. +32 ‘re Which King, Bezoniant It is not yet decided whether the demo- agr traddle-bug, to be opposed a gold platform and Cleve- or as a stiff-backed gold-bug, con- by the S} s of Wall street, to aturally opposed by a 16 to 1 platform and Bland or Beles. Until the fight at Chi- ed, some hesitation acing of McKinley on nejal question may readily be un- tood and forgiven. In the republican the St. Louis convention ap- loser and closer, the stronger vonviction that on the money Kinley is sound. After the nomi- nation there will probably be no republican deubts on the subject. ee If Mr. ly on board the ark, {t would be only common humanity for him to throw a line to Mr. Platt. ae Canton, Ohio, Is already Utical center than either Buazard's Pay or Quantico. as +02 ____ The Air Ship's Mixston, The progress reported in the direction of 1 navigation fs of very great import- e to all who are interested in the efforts to solve the mystery at the north. They must wish for the success of the air ship, for until that comes the search for the pole is Ukely to continue to be fruitless. The search, it Is true, will continue by the old means, but the man who first succeeds in traveling overhead with a sustained effort will probably “scoop” all of his fellow-ex- plorers on the most fascinating of all the unsolved problems. A man, well equipped, and traveling un- @er the aegis of exceptional good fortune, might penetrate the hitherto unvisited sec- tion by following the open sea in a ship and taking to sleds across the frozen places. But this plan requires that he strip for the trip. And so the question comes up, What | elsewhere; pain has | THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, MAY 25, 1896—TWELVE PAGES, would he do after he got there? He would have little or nothing in the way of sus- tenance. He couldn’t stay long. If he found inhabited land he wouldn't have time to explore it. If he found that the barrenness continued, he wouldn't have time to tuke any thorough or valuable scientific observations. Then would come the peril of the return, and he might not get back. But the man in the air ship will labor un- der none of these difilculties. The track to him will be as open coming as going. He will have only to point his ship and take the helm. Then he can provide a full food supply, and otherwise arrange for a protracted stay. If he finds habitable jand he can explore it, survey it, note all of its qualities. If he finds nothing but a frozen waste, he can examine the condi- tions of that, and proceed with all possi- ble scientific observations. He will be able to take his time, as Miss Lucy in the old song was bade to do. The return of the first voyager to the pole in an air ship affords an engaging theme. Fancy him reporting the discov- ery of a new land, and displaying as proofs ‘n inhabitant or two kidnaped by him in a spirit of sovereignty and progress. Fancy him giving it as his opinion that it is ricer than the Transvaal, and without the ‘Transvaal's fevers or Krugers. Fancy him paraphrasing Horace Greeley, and advising the young men of adventurous turn to go north. Fancy the advice being taken, and emigrant parties organizing. Would not the air ship from that day be rapidly per- fected and become in a short time as great an improvement on the first ship as the railroad train is on the ox cart? Would not there shortly be passenger ships and freight ships, and regular aerial lanes of travel, in every direction, north, south, east and west? ++. One “Scorcher” Caught: ‘Phe expected has happened at last. A “scorcher” has been captured, and by a policeman. It ought to have happened long ago, but it has been so that a poliveman on a wheel never seemed to be around when the scorcher was getting in his deadly work. He was on deck last night, though, and he gathered in one of a quartet of thoughtless youngsters who were speeding dewn a thoroughfare on which there is con- siderable traffle. A better argument in Lehalf of bicycle policemen could hardly be set up, if any argument was needed. In other cities the authorities have met the new and dangerous situation by a police detail equipped with bicycles. In Washing- ton that has not been done although the necessity is probably greater here than last night's capture was a purely voluntary effort by a police sergeant who happens to own a wheel. Surely the Com- missioners and the chief of police can, somehow or other, discover a fund out of ch four or five bicycles may be pur- chased. ——_+ + + ___ Post-Offices at Railway Stations, 2 post-office officials are thinking out practical suggestions likely to result in bet- t of the postal service they might time to the proposi- to anch post-oftices in ailroad During the past five years the ch post-office has become a valuable institution; it is appreciated by all class of people, The street-railway done much to add to the tency of the branch offices but the sys- tem will not be nearly perfect until there is ffice at each railway station. The ving of time—and time is more valuable now than it has ever been—would be very «reat. Why not try the experiment here? —— Only one hundred and thirty men were employed tuday on the new city post-office building, say some of the authorities. Sev- erai of the artisans were engaged in re- painting the iron-work, which, because of the snail-like construction, has developed symptoms of decay Red lead may arrest the process of rust, but the slates will not change the intlammable character of the pine roof which the supervising architect of the treasury says is both fire-pruof and combustible, —__+++_____ Filibustering 1s not ¢ weapoa which can inspire much admiration. ut much of Senator Hill's success has been due to his adherence to the theory that the end some- times justifies the means. —_ + e+ The suggestion that Senator Teller be nominated on the democratic ticket sounds like a proposition to out-mugwump the mugwumps. The elevation of tracks in Washington gives promise of being something more substantial than castles in thé air. ——__~++ SHOOTING STARS. The Politician’s Visit. “Twas just a social call,” quoth he.

Palmer, city editor of the Oskalonsa, Iowa, Times, under date of May 5, 1895, relates the following experience: “Recently I was compelled by a serious siege of dyspepsia to leave my office work, and thought to scck relief by 4 month's travel on the Peeifle coast. The rest and change helped me somewhat, but I could find no relief for the awful fits of indigestion, When abeut to return home to Iowa I entered a prominent drug store in Tacoma, Wash., and asked for something that would bring relief from my in- digestion. ‘The druggist sold me a box of Ripans Tabules for 50 cents. In less than twenty-four hours I could feel a change for the better. From that day to this I have used Rtpans Tabules whenever I felt my old ailment getting in its work, and with most commenda- ble results."” Ripans Tabules are sold by druggists, or by matl if the price (50 cents a box) is sent to The Rtpans Chemical Company, No. 10 Spruce st., New York, Somple vial, 10 cents.
