Sunday morning about 8 o'clock a
stranger, named John Ledonne, got
squeezed between two Ft. Wayne cars
and will be confined to a bed for several
days. He was beating his way from
Lima to Pittsburg and was seated on
the narrow platform of one box car
and had his legs on the platform and
against the end of another box car. A
sudden jolt of the train threw the cars
together and pushed Ledonne's legs
suddenly, His n leg was severely
strained by the shock and his back
wrenched. No bones were broken. He
was removed to the infirmary.

manufacturers a remarkable fact has been
discovered which science has not been able to
explain. The first process is to soak them in
lime water to take off the hair. This takes from
ten to fifteen days, according to the nature Of
the skin. Locality is the CHIEF thing to be
sidered. Skins frem one district drop their hair
sooner than those from another. After the hair
has been removed the skins are placed in
small square vat filed with a preparation of
bran water and shaken violently to take out the
grease. This is called the fermentation of the
skin. A mixture of eggs. salt and flour Is next
applied. The kid is then ready to receive the

Why 1t Is More Expensive to Live the
American Continents.


American Continent
Thomas Wentworth Higginson, in Harper's Bazaar.
It is curious fact that while our foreign Wis
itors. especially those who are English lecturers,
are always complaining Of the higher prices of
living In America the lesturing portion of them
never seem to remember that but for these high
prices we never should have had the pleasure Of
their company In other words, they are I'M
willing that high prices should be paid to any
body bu. themselves. 1t seemed to Mr.. Mat
thew Arnold, for instance, perfectly proper that
he should come here and be paid three times as
much for lecture as he could possibly have re-
ceived at home; but when he was called upon to
pay out, in far less serious disproportion, part
of that Increased compensation for board aud
lodging and fees 1T struck him that there was
something very imperfect in a civilization that
would tolerate such state of things.
But as matter of fact, the main reason of
higher prices in America is simple that it
ought to reconcile to those prices everyone who
wishes to the race advance. | knew two
sisters who kept house manv years since, the
in London, the other in Boston; and on COM
pairing notes ono day they found with surprise
that they had spent about the same sum with in
the past year for servants wages, the difference
being that the English family kept just twice
many servants as the American. No doubt this
was a great advantage to the London employers,
it seen from the English traveller point OF view;
but how was it.for the ssrvantsR
That is precisely the aspect of the case with
which our we'll meaning cousins never seem to
concern themselves. and they never can under
stand why it is that the English emigrants pre-
fer to come to ''the States" rather than to
Canada; the simple reason being that here the
laborer is not only thought worthy of his hire"

ted to the House Pacific Railroad COM
mittee notifications in the Outh-
waite funding bill, desired by Presi
dent Adams. The only change oi
moment suggested in the original, is
the proposition to fix payments to be
made by the company upon its debt,
at one-tenth per cent. for the first five
years, and OF one half one per cent. for
the second term of five years, instea ad
OF uniform payment for the first ten
years of one-third Of one per cent.
Roughly calcula led, tire effect of the
proposed change would be to reduce
the payments by 100000 during

crease them by corresponding sum
during the next five years.
Story stated the total amount
Of pa, ment to the Government during
the first ten years by the original
