THE SPORTS OF THE TRACK.

HUGO, Col, Sept. 1O.-A bold at
tempt was made in River Bend this
morning at day-break to rob United
States Army Paymaster Major Brooks,
as he was going from the train to the
camp of the Sixth Cavalry, about three
miles from River Bend, to pay the
troops. He got off the western bound
passenger train early this morning, and
was met at the station by Capt. Irwin
and Lieut.. Wilmore of the Sixth Cayal-
ry with an ambulance. Mrs Roberts,
the wife of post trader, and some SOL
diers were also in the ambulance. When
a short distance from the station
the ambulance was halted by two
masked men on foot. Three shots
were fired by them from a shot gun
loaded with buckshot, one charge
taking effect in Capt. Twins back.
At first his injurious were considered
slight, but he has since been bleeding
internally and splitting blood. Another
shot was fired by the robbers from q
pistol, the ball passing across Major
Brooks's lap and through Mrs. Roberts's
hand, making painful wound. Lieut.
Wilmore fired his pistol at one of the
robbers named G.. W. Graham, former
ly Captain in the Tenth Cavalry at
Fort Leavenworth. The ball passed
through his body just below the heart
He is dying. The other robber, John
Dick, formerly keeper of No. l stage
station, on the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad, escaped but the
cavalry are after him with hopes of his
CAPTURE.

WATCHES FOR LOCOMOTIVES.

A correspondent of the Chicago Tri-
bnne says "The 2 .nnsylvania railroad
have for years made first class watch a
part of their engine equipment. Every
engine upon the road has its watch
numbered to correspond with the num-
Der upon the engine. The watches are
purchased by the company, and control
led by the proper officers. In the office
of each Division Superintendent hangs
a watchmaker's board with numbered
hooks for all the watches and engines
belonging to that division. When an
engine goes out upon a trip the watch is
taken from the hook. When he re-
turns, the watch is replaced, and while
in the office run with the regulator. As
consequence, all the engines upon the
road are being run upon uniform time,
and no record has yet been made of an
accident resulting from discrepancy of
watches.

THE PROFITS ON DRUGS.

A New YORK Sunday Mercury report
er has the following regarding the pro-
fits on drugs Seidlitz powders cost
about ten cents pound, and at retail
bring anywhere from two to five dollars,
as sold in papers. Eight morphine
powders would require about grain,
and would cost about one cent, while
the charge would be from thirty cents
to dollar. A dozen soda and rhabarb
pills-a very common order-would cost
the buyer about the same, and would
cost the druggist half cent and five
minutes labor. And SO on through
the whole list. A thousand per cent.
may seem like reckless estimate, but
from one thousand to two thousand per
cent. may be set down as the expected
profit on drugs sold at retail. There is
no standard of prices, the location and
class of custom of store regulating
them. The appearance of the CUSTOM
er, too, has much to do with it some
times, the charge being adjusted accord
ing to the clothing of the wearer Ii a
man drops into large Broadway store,
and asks for two or three ounces of
powdered borax, with which to kill cro-
ton bugs, he will probably pay twenty
five cents for it. The wholesale price
of borax is twenty-five cents a pound.
The profits on physicians prescriptions
are even greater, the actual cost of the
drugs put into them being usually in
significant. Druggists often pay ply
sicians' twenty-five or thirty per cent on
the prescriptions sent to them, and such
~, 80 I
professional
Besides this, doctors have the perqui-
sites of free perfumery, combs, brushes,
and often of very expensive toilet ar
ticles, dressing.cases, etc. Especially
is the profit fabulous on prescriptions
into which q great number of ingredients
enter. In such cases dollar or dol
lar and half, is not unfrequently
charged for connection, the cost of
which does not exceed ten cents. As
to the adulteration of drugs, no very re-
liable information can be obtained.
The operations in that line are mostly
by the wholesale dealers. Reputable
retailers do not find it to their interest
and sell any but pure drugs, as physicians
are usually very particular about the
proper compromising OF their prescrip-
tions but less conscientious dealers
frequently reduce the strength of tine
lures far below the official standards,
to substitute inert substances for in
gradients which they do not happen to
have. The adulteration of some drugs
has been carried so far as to demand
special legislation, but the practice is
as great fraud on retailers as upon
buyerS

One of the most ingenious and dar-
ing thefts on record was perpetrated a
short time since at the village of Briefly
hill, England. A lad entered the store
of grocer of the place and bought q
roll of bread, which he asked the man to
stuff down the back of his jacket, as his
companion outside would take it away
from him if he saw it. The grocer COM
piled with the apparently innocent re-
quest, and having had his loaf placed in
its original hiding place the boy left.
Hardly had h" quilted the store when
another lad rushing in exclaimed DO
you know what that chan has done he
has prigged your watch p The grocer
looked in horror, and saw his watch
chain dangling and his watch gone.
"There he goes p said his informant,
pointing to figure seen going down
the street; and the stcrekeeper imme-
diately rushed out in pursuit, leaving
the store ungarded. When he reached
the corner the supposed thief had van
ished, and returning to his store he
found that during his absence the in
former had emptied the till and gone off
with the money. The two thieves have
so far escaped capture.

PosToFFlcE STATIsTIos.-DurIng the
month Of August, the first month otthe
free delivery system in this city, not
withstanding the houses were not num-
bered and the letters were seldom prop"
erly addressed to the residences OF citl1
zens for whom they were intended, the
following lie the result OF the new sys-
tenn: Registered letters delivered 80;
mail letters, 1923; Postal cards Sl4;
Local letters 1867; local Postal
Cards 22l; Newspapers S,6l6.
Upon the above, postage had been pre-
paid; upon the following postage was
collected and the matter carried to the
Office for mailing letters 1868; Postsl
cards 456; Newspapers l02. This was in
the absence of lamp-post boxes. 1t is
expected that when letters are proper
" addressed to the numbered houses
and boxes for the reception of mail
matter are placed st convenient locall-
ties, these figures will be largely in
creased.
