THE CENTRAL'S NEW LINE.

Through Trains Between Chicago and st.
Paul To be Started Soon.
MILWAUKEE, April IS General Manager
Finney, of the Wisconsin Central road,
says that the first through tram between
Chicago and St. Paul will be run over the
road June 18th. 1t is the cOmpany's in
tentiOn to start in with a fast train ser
vice, and the time schedule will provide
for thirteen-hour run. The recent
heavy purchases of real estate near Tay-
lor street and the probable passage of the
bridewen lot bill with amendments in the
senate, solve the problem of its terminal
facilities. There are some legal compli
cations regarding street crossings, but it
is believed that they will be east ly sur
mounted.

ASpotlesS Future.
TsxsS SiftinpS

Judge NoOnan. of San Antonio, is not
very popular with the young attorneys,
because when they argue motions for new
trials before him he gets excited and over
rules the motions, and orders them laid on
the table. 4 few days ago, a young lawyer
in arguing a motion for a new trial of a
horse thief, said pathetically:
1T is true that my client has bad record
in the past. but even your honor should
admit that there is no stain upon his future
record"
Inspite of this eloquent appeal Judge
NoOnan overruled the motion, remark
ing that the penitentiary was just the place
for a man to keep his future record spot

PALMYRA, April 2S.-The funeral of

place at l O'Clock this afternoon. The

years respectively. The deceased had his
life insured for $1,000. The coroner's

WHITE PAPER AND EYEslaHT.

The PrineipaP Injury Comes from la
proper Arrangement of the Light.
Many believe the eyesight is impaired
by the use of white instead of colored. or
at least tinted. paper. and at times the
subject comes up for discussion. So far
as we have seen, no positive evidence
has yet been secured to prove the iniuri-
Gus effect OF white paper on the eyes,
and some recent Inquiries lead us to
doubt if such evidence is to be had.
A company engaged in the sale Of
tinted paper recently urged us to say a
word against the use of white paper for
billing, letterheads, records" etc, for
that 1t does more to keep the oculist and
optician busy than any other cause.
Further along they say: "There is no
doubt that, in a fe years, tinted paper
will be used for purpose above named
lbilllng. letterheads, records, etc. |, and
the white paper now used will be an ex-
reption to the rule. In the interests OF
the clerks and bookkeepers, we appeal to
you," etc.
DIR. st. John Roosa, one OF the best au-
thorities on the eye hereabout, said,
when his attention was called to this: Il

keepers and pthers who work with the
any complaints against white paper nor
any Communications for tinted paper.
my investigations show me that prin-
cipal injury to the eye comes from an
improper arrangement of the light when
writing.
He says he does not believe that peo-
pie who use tinted paper for writing
are freer from eye troubles than those
who use white. AS for himself. he has
used both, first one and then the other,
hoping to be able to note the different
effects upon the eyes. None, however.
were observed. DIR. Roosa might have
gone a step farther, and said that in-
stances could bo cited where those ac-
customed to white paper having sud-
denly changed, end adopted that with
decided tint, found mal-infiuence ex-
erted on the eye, and were compelled to
90 back to white paper.
Ii is well known that using the eyes
too much or in bad lights will serve to
hasten the development Of miopia. pres
byopia, strabismus. and danlonism
where there is hereditary inclination;
but there is no record of case, so say
the authorities, where the use of white
paper hastened or the use of tinted paper
retarded such development. Il is not
likely, therefore. that tiuted paper will
replace white in the business transac-
tions of the future.-Scientific Amer
