UiuMHlMr Point*.

In looking oat over the great field of American railway enterprise and considering the vast amount of work accomplished daring the year just ended, there is a showing of great aggregate anccasees, magnificent earnings, unusually large extensions of lines and enormous increase in valuations. In addition to this, however, there is to be found much that i» not altogether bright for contemplation. The last number of the Railway Age, issued Saturday, contains an interesting review of receivers appointed and sales under foreclosed mortgages for the year 1890. Twenty-nine roads were thus disposed of and twenty-six passed into the hands of receivers. Of the sold out lines the most important was the St Louis, Arkansas & Texas, with a fraction over 1,200 miles of line and with a reoresentation of nearly $58,000,000 in bonds and stocks. The Ohio, Indiana & Western, was next in importance, with 341 miles and securities amounting to nearly $24,000,000 of securities. Next in regular order are the St. Louis, Fort Scott & Wichita, the Chicago & Atlantic, the Houston & Western Texas and the Sciota Valley. The twentynine companies together represent 3,825 miles of road and very nearly $182,500,000 of funded debt and capital. These roads which have had receivers appointed for tbem for the year representing 3,000 miles of lines and something over $105,000,000 of securities.

Eight hours will constitute a day's work in the shops of the M., K. AT. road commeecing this morning.

The directory of the T. H. & I. met Saturday morning and declared the semi-anihual dividend of 3 per cent.

Lou in Jackson has been appointed in dustrial commissioner of tlie Chicago, Milwaukee & St, Paul. This is an entirely new office.

A. J. Steen, formerly E. & T. H. freight agent at Vincennes, has been transferred to the Maekey freight department in this city. He ia a very pleasant gentleman anil is a thoroughly competent man.

The Burnsido & Cumberland river railroad opened up business Monday. It connects with the Cincinnati Southern at Burnside, Ky., and the Burnside & Burksville Transportation Company at the same place. The line will be anew Held merchants along the line of the Queen Crescent road. 1). II. Conklin, well known in Indianapolis railroad circles, and formerly receiver of the Terre Haute & Peoria, has been appointed general manager of the Southern Atlantic & Ohio road, with headquarters at Bristol, Tenn. Mr. Conklin ranks as one of the oldest officials in service in the west and his taking hold on a sow hern road marks anew era in his railroad life.

President Ingalls, of the Big Four, has come to the conclusion that the freight department of the company _is .feeiog operated on too expensive a scale, and has ordered a reduction in expenses of that department. Freight Traffic Manager Washburne is now visiting the termini to see where there can be retrenchment nmde in the expenses without unfavorably affecting the business.

An electric railway, 186 miles long:, is about to be opened in South America, connecting Buenos Ayres with Montevideo. This, however, is not a surface road, but an overland "telpherage line," and its object is to carry letter boxes between the two cities. It crosses the mouth of the LaFlatte where it is nineteen miles wide, and two wires are supported by a tower on each side of the river nearly 270 feet high.

The change of time 6n the E. & T. H. and E. & I. went into effect yesterday. On the E, A T. H. two trains are withdrawn the one south bound at 10:20 a. m. and the train arriving here at 8:40 p. m. The through night train from the south, formerly due to arrive at 11 o'clock, will reach here an hour earlier but for the time being will lay over here until 11:12, the former hour of departure. The Nashville train, sonth bound will come in on her usual time but will not leave for the sou tit until 6 o'clock. This morning the E. & I. train at 8:25 instead of 8:10 her former time.

It is not tediously, exhaustive, nor injuriously condensed. It omit* nothing germane to the subject, and admirably presents the kernal of all known facts found in history, literature, art and science in ha manner that it is well calculated to meet the requirements of the intelligent American Home

It is at once a masterly work, clear, practical, comnrcheusive and cannot fail to give entire satisfaction to all who shall possess and peruse it.

Being a revision of the Encyclopedia Britanica," with an eye to the wants of tlie American people, it surpasses any other edition of this encyclopedia in its worth to the citizens of this country.

I cheerfully recommend it to the favorable consideration of every one who desires a standard work. Respectfully,

TEURK IIACTE, Ind., December 15, LBW,. A good encyclopedia is, as the name implies, a circle of knowledge. It is, in a very proper sense, a library in itself.

subscription to a good paper, to be sent to same distant relative or friend, a daily reminder of your thoughtfulness.

WHAT IT CONTAINS.

The Americanized Encyclopedia Britannica is published in ten large illustrate!

and handsomely bound volumes, and contains about 7000 pages, 14000 cohtmnsj over 8,500,000 words—altogether an amount of reading matter equal to about 110 ordinary 12mo volumes in amount and 1000 volumes in interest and practical in* formation. Apart from its inestimable value as a work of reference, this JEncjclo-* pedia has a value which many people never think of associating with books of this description. It is a perfect library of general literature of the most entertaining

kind. Are you fond of history? It contains the history of every nation that evi flourished, tells the story of every war that ever was waged, and gives an account of every important battle that was ever fought. Biography? It tills the life story of every man who has helped to mold the destinies or thoughis of the world—completely, if the man be dead, or down to the present year if he be still alive. Do you want travels, famous voyages, wild adventures among savage tribes or in inhospitable deserts? The Encyclopedia contains them all, not compiled in a hasty, catchpenny style, bat written by masters of thought and language in each department,

Some of the finest essays of Macaulay are to be found within the pages of this wcrk or, if you incline to scientific study, the Encyclopedia offers you papers prepared by such authors as Huxley, Tyndall and HelmhoHz on every department of sci* ence which the mind of man has yet explored. And the superlative advantage o( the whole arrangement is that if in the course of your reading you meet as so often

happens, perplexing reference to something you never heard of before, or have forgotten, yon have only to take down another volume of the Encyclopedia to learn

WHY IT IS THE BEST.
