arid deserts remain; others, that after

there Will be On. ) lew branch lines

others, that the mines OF the Rocky
Mountains will soon lie exhausted, and
that when they fail We shall see that
region deserted. Such is the language
OF tho cruakor, OF tho disappointed

would have done anywhere, OF the
Eastern man who thinks civilization is

all that and more. 1t is cunning,

much ofthe mischiefis done before
1t is discovered. 1t saps the found
atoms of a healthy system. 1t robs
the blood Of its vitality, demoralizes
the liver, confounds the stomach,
and makes the victim wish he were

Self-Imposed Hisks,

Railroads are built for we'll defined,
specific purpose, which does otinclude
their use for pedestrianism. This prin-
ciple is so well recognized in Europe
that it is made by law penal offense-
in England and In some continental
countries-for persons to walk on the
tracks. In this country there are por-
tons of railroad tracks, particularly in
the vicinity of manufactures, that are
80 constantly trodden that the earth has
become almost as solid as a pavement.
The railroad managers put up warning
signs, but they are disregarded, and
once in awhile ian awful accident"
horrifies the community; q man or q
woman walking on the track Is torn to
pieces by the remorseless locomotive,
one track having train coming In one
direction, and another track one going
in the other direction. step on to eth.
er track being probably fatal. There is
curve under n high bank, in close
vicinity to railroad depot, which is
occupied by two important railroads
with their network of tracks, and at no
hour OF the day are all these tracks
clear. This curve leads to large manu-
factories, and the the roadbed Is the
common route of at least two thousand
workmen twice If not three times day.
On account Of the killing of two persons
who were walking the track, the railroad
companies were blamed and the man
ayers put up warning signs--as far as they
could go In prohibition, in the lack Of
law, with it's penalties and enforce.
ments. Yet the use of the track is no.
wise abated for pedestrian route, and
It never will be abandoned until law,
that shall be enforced, compels these
riskers OF life and limb to use the gen.
eral and public highway, that is trifle
longer but ID absolutely safe. ---- Scientific

that no state taxes would be levied. The
Illinois Central railroad company pays
into the state treasury seven per cent CT ito
gross earnings in lieu Of paying taxes 10
any of the counties through which 1t runs.
Every year since the campaign promises
referred to we're made, there has been
state tax levied and generally ss larges tar
as when the state was paying of bonded
indebtedness. The past year the Illinois
Central railroad has paid $4i3,734 into the
state treasury. Yet levy to raise s9,4O0,.
900 for general state purposes has been
made and must be paid by increasing taxes
that much.
While the other departments of the
public schools lack much of being FULL the
primary departments are, as they were last
year, over crowded At recent meeting
the board decided to relieve the latter as
much as possible by promoting some of the
little folks into higher rooms, though not
higher studies. But finding that this did
not afford all the needed relief, the board
has ordered half daily sessions, dividing
the scholars 30 that half OF them attend In
the forenoon and halt in the afternoon.
The board has also ordered that an assist
ant be procured for the upper room of the
colored school, and Secretary Howlcy wrote
Monday to the principal Of the Normal
school at Csrbondale to know IL he could
recommend some one. The schools are
running very satisfactorily now. There
seems to be no jar anywhere, either be.
tween the teachers themselves or between
any Of them and the board, which is con
dition of things that had not prevailed dur.
ing the several previous terms, and which
is absolutely necessary to the proper con.
duct of the schools.

A Husband and wife Found Dead In Bed
IA Last Letter.

New YORK, July 30.--The persons resid-
ing In the house No. 211 West Twenty
second street were startled between 9 aud 10
O'Clock this morning by hearing the report
of two pistol shots proceeding from the front
room ON the third floor, which was occu-
pied by Mr.. Horace B. Sheppard and wife.
The door was tried and found to be locked,
and then the police of the West Twentieth
street station were notified. On the arrival
OF Policemen Clark and Knolhof the door
was broken open.
The sight that met the gaze of the police
men and those of the occupants of the house
who followed them upstairs was horrible in
the extreme. On the bed, In their night
dresses, lay Mr.. Sheppard and his wife, a
tullet wound In the right side of the head
of each, the bedding and floor saturated with
their life blood, and 42-caiibre Smith g.
We,son revolver with two chambers empty
lying between them. When the bodies were
examined 1t was found that life had been
extinct several minutes, though the body OF
the man was still warm. Captain McElwain
entered the house few moments later and
made thorough examin alton of the effects
of the deceased, III
The only thing found that bore any rela-
lion 10 the tragedy was the following letter
which was addressed to Rev. P. L. Sheppard,
Saybrook, Conn:
JULY, 20. 1sss.--Mg Dear Father and
Mother: Kittie and were secretly married.
There will be nothing revealed of the cere-
mony. We have been very happy together
In life, but we will be happier in death,
which seems SO pleasant. Our last wish and
request is that we may rest together. With
| all our love and devotion we are your affec-
tionate son and daughter.
~ KITTIE AND HORACE SHEPPARD. =
It will be seen that for over week they
had deliberated upon the question of sui
eide, but had not finally determined upon
| 1t till this morning.
Mr.. and Mrs. Shepperd were known very
| little about In the house In which they re-
sided They arrived there on the 23d of
last May, AMI hired the room which they
died In, merely as furnished room, taking
their meals outside. Yesterday they left
the house early In the morning and did not
| return until late at,night. Mr.. Sheppard
was in the employ Of the Herring Safe Com
pany, No. 252 Broadway, for the past three
years as shipping clerk. He was highly re-
spected by HIS employers and considered to
| he young man Of excellent character and
principles.
