in living SO long and travelling so far
without access TO the atmosphere. This

MARTYRS TO S, IxNcE.-A process Gallo
foremanpzIng, for pr venting the oecay
of imber, by spr mixing it while green
with a powder composed OF corosiv,
SUI innate, arsenic and common salt, has
been used in the erection OF railroad
depot at st Louis with lamentable re-
sults. A large number of the workmen
were poisoned, and four or five dis d
from the effects of inhaling the compost
ton. A post naortem examination Of on.
of the victims showed his stomach to b.
fearfully ulcera' ed, while the lungs ana
liver were nearly destroyed by ASSESSES,
the right lung being one mass of cor
ruption. The unfortunate man was first
attacked with ulcerous sores and blls-
tiers, then experienced great difficulty il
breathing, chronic diarrhea followed, and
he fuuly died. Many Of the surviving
workmen are said to be permanently in
jured, and eleven OF them have brought
suits against the railroad company, lay
ing damages at $25, 900 each. Ii the in
Yentor OF this dangerous process had
possessed scientific knowledge of thu
effects Of the powerful agent he used,
such disaster would nor have occurred.

FARES Across THE CONTINENT-Th
San Francisco Gull SAYS:

FARES ACRO>s THE = CONTINENT.-Ihe
San Francisco Gull says:
g IT the price OF passage from Omaha
to California, over the Pacific roads, can
not be reduced, as we have been hoping,
it is in the highest degree desirable that
some provision should be made by which
passengers can enj rest of nights at a
lesser price than the present sleeping
cars afford AT present rates only rich
people can afford 10 visit the East from
this asst. The regular tariff t. Chicago,
for instance, is $118, 20 which must be
added $19 for sleeping car fare, and from
$15 IT, $50 more Tor meals on the road
A man and his wife, therefore, cannot
visit heir friends and relatives in the
Eastern states fer less sum than $500
or $500 actual travelling expenses.-There
are comparatively few who can aft rd
this price On second-class cars, winch
are still quite com ortable, he fare j.
considerable less, but the fat igne is aleo-
gether too great, travelling five or six
days continuously, without once stretch
ing ont the Inns in repoSe. Why not
have some second class sleeping Cars,
where, for fifty cents night, the passen.
grs Can luxuriate at lull length, aud
catch little comfortable sleepY Two
