1t is said that in the original plan for
locating the town OF Indianapolis it was the
intention to lay it out west of the river
where the Insane Hospital now stands. o.
account of the advantages OF Fall Creek as a
source OF water power, the plan was changed
so as to enable millers TO utilize the stream
In running their mills.
When the B. and o. decided to make 10 yer
rates than ever before for any inauguration,
it did so in The full conviction that such con-
cessions to the public at such times should
be complete and without any reservations
whatever. On other lines it would seem that
certain trains IRE considered entirely too
good for the average Washington passenger,
and taat reduction IN rates means simply
that slow train time can De had at less ig-
IRE than usual, bgt for frst-class a1d mod
srn time the old rate Of not only the regular
fsTe, bat doubled, should be exacted. In
other words, on the y. and O. every train
both limited and others, is open for tie con-
venience and comfort OF inauguration pas

remember when the time for the purchase OF

Killed by Wasps.-Some days ago w.
p. Thompson, farmer of Allegany county,
this State, was stung TO death by wasps.-
While working in corn field he noticed
what he supposed to be bees swarming
around the stump Of an old oak tree stand
ing in fence corner. He approached and
rashly attempted to investigate them by
striking the stump with hoe. In An in.
slant whole nest Of wasps, numbering
hundreds, attacked him. They settled all
over his head and chung to him with re-
msrkable persistency. When he reached
home screaming for help, his wife was
compelled TO beat them off with broom.
He had been stung in horrible manner
There was scarcely u piece OF skin as big az
penny on his head which had not been
pierced by the wasps' stings. He had just
had his hair cut with clipper, and the
wasps found no difficulty in getting in their
work all over his scalp. One of them had
settled in his left eye and stung the eyeball.
In two hours Thompson's head had swollen
to monstrous size, his left eye protruding,
and be was terrible spectacle. The man
suffered great agony and died in few
hours.
