the railroads of the country, but viii cause
them to be managed by two corporations.
The latter will have control of the rolling
stock, and will keep sixty-two per cent. of
the gross receipts, the remainder to be divided
between the government and the managing
corporations. One corporation will manage
the roads along the Adriatic, the other those
along the Mediterranean, including the AL
pine lines. The government assumes no

The decision which has been rendered by
the Supreme court of Massachusetts, in q
telegraph case is of great Importance to
owners of real estate and to telegraph COM
panies. The plaintiffs in this action sought
to restrain the defendants from erecting and
maintaining telegraph poles on streets upon
which their estates abutted. It was claimed
that he act comforting power to erect such
structures without compensation to abuttsrs
was unconstitutional. The court, however,
refused to grant the complainsnts' request.
The Law laid down is that telegraph COM
pany, duly authorized under the statutes to
occupy certain streets with its
poles Is not liable for damages
for such occupancy to owners of the fee of
property upon which they rest. The
ground of the decision is that ths abatters
having parted with the absolute ownership
of those portions of their estates dedicated to
public uses on the establishment of the high
way, the change in those uses does not add
to the burden to the extent to demand COM
pensation. There is bill before the Massa-
chusetts legislature providing for the build
ing of an elevated railroad in Boston, and the
real estate owners of the city who will be
affected if the bill passes are anxious to. prove
how this decision would apply to the elevated
road business.

At the request of the Prussian Minister OF
Public Instruction the medical faculty Of Ber-
lin some months ago appointed special oom-
nittee to report son the advisability of
dispensing with vivisection as means
of instruction and scientific research. This
committee, consisting of Privy Councillor of
Medicine du Bois-Reymond, Rudolf Vir-
chow. Westphal and Liebrich, professors of
physiology, pathology, psyohiatry, and
pharmscology, have just made their report,
which was unanimously accepted by the
faculty. It asserts that ''vivisection is
absolutely necessary for scientific research a.
well as for instruction. The report is
accompanied by a statement of numerous
experiments made with animals for the pur-
pose of demonstrating the laws of the ner-
vous system, digestion, circulation of the
blood etc, and cites variety of striking
instances in which vivisection has proved to
be Indispensable in utilizing the researches of
modern science and invention for the welfare
of humanity.

their warfare against the Russian govern
ment by the lack of money, and the numer-
ous recent raids upon the cash boxes OF the
mail coaches are ascribed to them. There

within period of seven weeks. At one
that occurred on the road to Mini Novgorod,
two of the assaiiants were captured by a
company of soldiers who were dispatched
after them in batch of forest land. They
refused to disclose their identity, but from
their clothes, appearance, and language they
are supposed to be students. Papers that

Cost of Copper.

A reliable authority states that the
average amount of copper contained
in the ore from the Quincy, Frank
lin, AllOueZ and Atlantic mines of the
Lake Superior region is one and two
fifths per cent, or yield per ton of
rock mined of 2S1a pounds. Thus the
value of metal per ton of rock, taking
metal at Is cents per pound is $45,
while the average cost Of mining,
stamping, transporting and refining
appears to be l2s4 cents per pound of
metal. thus leaving a margin for profit
of 21 cents per pound of copper.

The Black Hills Freight Route.

st. Paul telegram: The Marquis de

Wright, of Staten Island, with their
retinue have returned from the west
in the special car, Montana. The
madame and her guests spent several
days in their private car at Medora,
while the marquis made an overland
trip ON horseback with Joseph Pen
nell, to Deadwoed. A grand recep-
ton awaited them in the metropolis Of
the Hills. 1t was purely business
trip on the part of the marquis, but
the citizens there insisted on investing
the visit with social features. The
marquis was successful in his mission,
having secured heavy freight con-
tracts and the services of Bramble j.
Kyes as forwarding agents 10y the Lit
tie Missouri or Meiora line. Jones &
Pennell will put on and operate a
stage line by the same route. The
road is being rapidly put in order and
the business of the new line will soon
be actively begun. AS indicating the
feasibility of the route the marquis
and Mr.. Pennell made the return trip
from Deadwood to Medora, with but
one relay of horses, in twenty-six
hours. AS the distance is 1853 miles,
the trip was made in remarkably
quick time, a strong argument in favor
of the feasibility of the route.

Destroying Moths.

The destruction by moths is one of
the greatest veXations which careful
house-keepers have to contend with,
and their depredations are not to be
remedied after they have once made in
roads. Houses heated by furnaces are
especially predisposed to have moths,
but every house-keeper must be on the
watch for them, for, from the time that
the windows begin to be lett open the
trouble begins. Heavy carpets some7
times do not require taking up every
year, unless in constant use. lake out
the tacks from these, field the carpets
back, wash the floor in strong suds with
a tea-spoonful of borax dissolved in
them. Dash with insect powder or Law
with tobacco leaves along the edge and
retack. All moths can be kept away
and the eggs destroyed by this means.
Ingram and other carpets, after shak-
ing, are frightened by sprinkling a
pound of salt over the surface and
sweeping carefully and thoroughly. 1t
is also an excellent plan to wipe off the
carpet with boraX water, using a thick
flannel cloth wrung tightly, taking care
not to wet it, but only to dampen. Open
the windows and dry the carpet before
replacing the furniture. Other woolens,
including blankets and wearing apparel,
must be beaten and brushed and folded
smoothly. Be careful to clean every
grease spot with ammonia and water,
not too strong, and dark wooden cloth.
Tie pieces OF camphor into little bundles
and put one in each article. Wrap the
article in newspaper, as printers ink is
a great preventative of moths, and sew
them up in strong shecting bags, la
beled, so that it will not be necessary
to open them during the summer except
for use. This iso a good way for those
who do not possess cedar boxes, and
the articles need have no other cafe if
every spot is treated as directed and the
garments are not left hanging in the
closet too long before putting away for
the season. -Providence Star.
