Hogs Killed by Hot Weather.

The intense heat of Sunday was very
disastrous for hogs in transit. Nine
car loads of fine marketable hogs were
brought in from the West Saturday
night. and during the night the Hanni-
bal n St. Joseph yard-master. acting
under orders. loaded them into the Han
nibal cars for shipment. Morning came,
and when the shipping bills came TO be
made out there was nobody to be found
who could make out the bills. So the
ears stood hour after hour, while the
morning hours crept OH to noon. and
the RAYS of the sun came beating down
with intense heat. Toward noon the
hogs began to die. ana ii was deemed
advisable to run the ears down to the
stock-yards again and unload them.
One dealer named Fitzgerald had 3l7
hogs. and by the time they We're I'M
loaded at the wards l25 of them were
dead. Another shipper named Stock
well had two car loads. and lost about
fifty head. The suffering of the poor
beasts, huddled up in the cars, is de-
scribed as intense. They pushed their
noses through the cross-bars of the ears
with such force, in their eagerness 10
get a little fresh air. as to bend the rods
in all directions. They were seen to
shake like reeds for a moment, and then
tumble over dead! The question as to
who shall bear the loss will probably be
decided by the courts.-St. Joe No.

For that matter. though, there seems
to be money in all sorts Of things in
New York There, for instance, is the
secondhand furniture trade, which has
grown to enormous proportions. and is
now one of the leading lines of business
in the city. 1t is hardly worth while to
mention tine fashionable secondhand
clothing trade which every one knows
everything about that is worth know
ing. Aside from these there are dozens
OF different kinds of secondhand bust
ness going on all the time and general
ly at a large profit to the dealers. We
have one class of men dealing in old
lead, another in old iron. another in old
brass. another in old building material
of all sorts. another in broken glass,
and so on through long list OF things
that seem to have served their only pur-
pose and to be no longer of any use to
any one. Gathering old rags and old
paper is, of course, a large business in
itself, and a profitable one. too. The
latest industry is that of collecting the
small tin cans that are thrown out after
their contents of preserved fruit, meat
or vegetables. as the case NAV be. are
used. The tin is OF scarcely any value,
but il paws to melt down the cans for
their solder, and this is now done as
regularly as sending rags to paper
mill Gathering up cigar stumps around
the hotels is an old business. The
chewed and nicotine soaked ends are
dried. broken up and utilized either for
filters in making new cigars, or worked
in with the cheaper kinds of smoking
tobacco There are thousands of men
in New York who make living by
merely gathering up the refuse of trade
and of the household. and putting it in
shape to be utilized over again. and
some of them not only make a living.
but get ahead in the world. too.-N. T.

Great Council of State, had lis origin in
this way; In the famous institutes es-
tablished by the famous warrior Sultan
Mohamed H., the Turk ish body polite
was described by the metaphor of a
stately tent, whose domes rested upon
four pillars. The Niziers formed the
first pillar, the Judges the next. the
Treasurers the third and the Secreta-
ries the fourth. The chief seat of gov
eminent was ieuraiively named the
Lofty Gate OF tine ROYAL Tent" in
alluson to the practice of early times
when the Ottoman rulers sat AT the tent
doors TO administer Justice. The Iial-
ian translation of this name was lie
Porte Sublima This phrase was mod
ited in English to the Sublime Porte
and finally the adjective has been
dropped, leaving ii simply The

British India supports population
of 2i5 persons to the square mile.
against $50 in France and 200 in En-
gland. Wherever the population ex-
ceeds 200 to the square mile it ceases
to be rural. and has to live to Il greater
or less extent by manufactures, mining
or city industries. Keeping in view
that ninety per cent. of the rural popu-
lation of India live more or less bv the
tillage of the soil, it is easy to under
stand that, owing to the extreme den
sity of population. the struggle for ex-
isience is extremely hard.
