RAILRoADs

A Case IN Which s-upsrvlalos q,
Railroads ls Held to be Constlie-
tlonal.
CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-About a yea
ago John B. Shelton, a country shin
per, began a suit IN the United State
circuit court against the Chicago.
burlington & Quincy railroad com
pantes, to recover damages for alleged
charging Of extortiOnate freight rates.
He claimed the rates we're il excess
Of the maximum rates az fixed By the
railroad commissioners. The com
pany filed pleas setting out that it
was organized by the consolidation Of
Eve or six other Illinois railroads. ali
Of which, save one, had the
right by their charters to Ok the
amount Of charges for carrying freight
and passengers. Demurers were fled
to the pleas and argued some months
ago before Judge Gresham. The court
decided yesterday that the consolidated
company took its character from the
character Of the constituent com-
panies, and that one Of the companies
was subject to Legislative control, and
that the consolidation was voluntary
on the part Of several companies. The
case stood, Judge Gresham held, just
as If the defendant had been organized
by consolidation Of but two companies,
one independent Of legislative control
and the other subject to such control,
and that in all cases in which doubts
arose as to the powers Of corporations,
those doubts should he resolved In
favor Of the public. The case will be
to the supreme court. Under
Gresham's decision the company
will be compelled to conform to rates
fixed by railroad commissioners.

why they have not been paid direct q
the county treasurer:
To begin with take this as a pointer
Ftrst-That the magistrates as 4
class are a set Of ignOramuses, and no
one expects them to find anything Ia
the Index to the Code Of 1880, not
even under the heading provisions
Common to Courts or Judges" which
u something like our city ordinance,
"Disorderly Conduct"-if a court can't
nnd under anything else, they gener-
ally find under that.
SeeOnd-A very few magistrates
read understandingly and they never
know when an amendment is made to
a section, WITHOUT 1t is to section 45O
(the fee bill) and to that they always
catch on.
Third-From 1876 up to his death.
Judge A. II. Arthur was Virtually
acting as board of supervisors, clerk
OF the board Of supervisors, and coun.
" treasurer. and whenever a magis.
trate would make his return and pay
MS lines to the judge, he had fully
complied with the law. He took his
receipt and went his way rejoicing.
but since the death Of Judge Arthur
the three offices have been separated.
and If IS. w" will take upon himself
the trouble to examine the books of
the clerk of the board of supervisors
and the receipts of the magistrates. he
will find that quite a little sum was
paid TO the said clerk last June by the
several magistrates Of his county. These
fines have nothing to do with the
clerk or he with them, and the report
ne makes to the auditor of public &C.
counts has nothing to do with these
lines, except so far as they appear upon
the books Of the county treasurer as a
credit to the common school fund, and
That no one has a right to credit except
the treasurer, and he cannot credit
them until he re evts them. And if
IS. w" will examine the docket Of the
sheriff, the accounts of the clerk Of the
board and accounts and settlement and
statements, if there are any (P), with
contractors, who have for the last five
or ten years been working our county
prisoners, he would find, l think. quite
a sum due the school fund unpaid.
And if rs. W." will read section 6. ar
ticle 8. of the constitution of the State
OF Mississippi on the school fund,
ne can step up to the city
hall and ask the treasurer Of
the city of Vicksburg to pay
into the school fund about fifty
thousand dollars, the city has appro-

| have finished, and it will be well
for rs. W." to do as l have suggested,
and then apologize, through the paper,

Arctic Exploration.

There will be a general acquiescencc in
the opinion of Lieut.. Danenhower in
respect to the practicability of further
Arctic exploration when he says:
After having served with one Arctic
expedition, and having devoted seven
years to the study of the subject, as well
as to the watchful observation of the
numerous efforts and the comparative in.
significant results attending sacrifice of
human life and treasure, | unhesitatingly
record myself as opposed to further ex-
ploration OF the central polar basin with
our present resources The gradual ex.
tension Of observatory stations in the in.
terest of meteorological, magnetism and
other scientific branches should be made,
but national support should not be given
to another polar expedition.
Lieut.. Greedy and other explorers take
an opposite view of the matter, and the
question is one which will probably be
much discussed. but the results of the re-
cent expeditions point strongly to the con.
clusion that the game is not worth the

The Tapeworm.
Portland Oregonian.

The tapeworm is found in human be.
ings, dogs, hogs. cats etc, but was not
supposed to exist In herbivorous animals,
1t is a very singular creature, existing in
the alimentary canal Of animals and alb.
sorbing its nourishment from the digested
food around it When it has obtained its
growth, joints of it filled with eggs break
of and escape, scattering an immense
number of germs in all sorts of places.
When one Of these eggs is accidentally
swallowed by some animal it does not
develop into a tapeworm, as might be
supposed, but into an embryo, armed
with boring-hooks, which makes its way
into the muscles of the animal and con.
0tructs a little cell or cyst, where it re.
mains, and is nourished by the juices of
its host. When the flesh in which this
embryo lies is eaten by some other ami
NAL, it then develops into a tapeworm.
The tapeworm in man commonly comes
from an embryo in hog flesh, and hence
the great danger of raw or half cooked
pork.
