there looking az the foods, when Ryan's

down. The crowd rushed over on the plat.

ter, when suddenly the whole depot COL
lapsed and sank Ia the water. The track
was a. the same time depressed, and the
cars standing close ran into the de-
preston, covering the people who had
gone down with the falling structure.
Not one body haa been recovered, nor
could the hystsnders give any Intelligent
account OF how many escaped. The work
OF recovering the drowned will be exceed
ingy difficult, as the place is isolated, with
the danger OF other parts OF the street
melting as this portion did. II Is possible,
however, that the break In the great sewer
IN Mclean avenue caused the depot 10

The Common Council voted to recon-
mend an appropriation OF S75, 900, and "a
ask aid OF the Legislature.
II Is now certain that the disaster was
caused by the breaking Of the great sewer.

Magnetic the Bed.

\ German has occupied many years in
studying the art of bed making, or rather
bed placing. Baron keichenbach, the
pains taking German, maintains that improp-
ery placed beds will shorten mans life.
He saws If a mere magnet exercises an
influence on sensitive persons, the earth $
magnetism must certainly make itself felt
on the nervous life of man. In whatever
hemisphere YOU NAV be, always sleep with
your feet 10 the equator, and let your body
lie true as needle 10 the pole
The baron SAYS the proper direction of the
body is Of the utmost importance for the
proper circulation of the blood, and many
disturbances in the human organisms have
been cured by simply placing the bolster at
different point of the compass from that
il had occupied.
Let such as have hitherto been in the Eabit
of sleeping with their heads where their feet
ought to be, take to heart the example of the
late Dr. Fischweter, Of Magdeburg, who
died at the age of LOG years.
The most unhealthy position, we are told.
is when the body lies due east and vest
Some observers assure US that to sleep in
such posture is tantamount to committing
suicide, and that diseases are often aggrav-
a.ed BY deviations from the proper posture.
While these are mere conjectures, yet the
statements are worthy of thought and inves-
tigatiOn.

Water for Farm Stock.

\ Western writer SAYS he recently saw an
Illustration Of the injurious effects OF COM
polling stock TO use impure water. A
neishLor has well in the lower corner of
his barnyard. which is nothing more than a
receptacle for the drainage from the yard.
During the first ihaw the water in the well
beclm impure, and the horses for time
refused to drink it, In few days the i'm
pure water had all been pumped out, and the
most of the stock drank it as usual. There
wa, one colt. however, which had been led to
This colt could not be induced to taste the
water from this well for more than two
weeks after il was as pure as ever, and, IN
the meantime quenching his thirst with
nothing but snow he became thin in flesh
and spring-poor in midwinter. The damage
TO this colt is serious, and il could have been
prevented by not draining the BARNARD into
the we'll.
Cows are not near 50 sensitive in the mat
ter Of taste as horses. We, this should not be
an excuse for negligence in the quality of
water furnished them. The stock breeder
and the dairyman owe il to themselves TO
supply their stock with the purest and fresh
est OF water.
How often should animals be allowed to
drink presume were stock allowed free
access to water in summer that each indi-
,dual would drink at least a dozen times
during the day. If they are not allowed
free access TO water but compelled to drink
at stated periods, they are quite liable to
drink too much. This is one of the greatest
advantages Of having water in the pasture.
In winter am aware that the practice is to
water horses perhaps twice day, morning
and night. With cows the practice is TO
turn them into the ward and allow them TO
drink what they want during two or three
hours. Perhaps an improvement upon this
plan would be 10 turn them out for an hour
al a time morning and night. All those
who own horses should have some way ar
ranged for taking the chill off water for
horses during winter. 1t will pay TO do so.
