ON RAIL AND OROssTIE.
Local and General Gossip in Railway
Circles

Considerable interest Is awakened in rail-
road circles over the announcement that
President Samuel Thomas, of the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia railway, had
ordered that hereafter all tickets sold on
that system to southwestern points must be
over the Gould lines. 1t is generally be-
lieved that @ uld has formed an alliance
with the East Tennessee, and that he will
soon secure control of the road. He made
a tour over the system last spring, and all
the big officials confidently predicted this
would come about.

association Of rice receivers is talked Of.
The feature Of the trust specially objec-
tionable to the receivers is the appointment
OF one buyer. This will cut cf competition,
and force the sale Of rice at any figure the
buyer chooses TO fix. It is proposed that

TEMPERANCE ITEMS.

Mr. w. S. GAME, M. p, of En-
gland. who has been travelling in
Japan, reports that, with a population
of $1,000. 900, that country has only
10000 paupers. He attributes this to
the fact that they drink tea there in
stead of beer, whisky and other in
toxicants.
The claim that the use OF beer will
diminish drunkenness and largely
take the place of spirits is not borne
out by Parliamentary report in Bel
yium. This report says intemperance
is spreading fearfully in the kingdom.
Next to Bavaria Belgium has the
reputation of being the country where
most beer is consumed, the amount
per year being 240 liters. or 50 gallons
per head. 1t also comes next to Rus
sia and Denmark in the consumption
of spirits, the amount consumed OF
the latter being 13 liters per head per
year.

Life in the Capital

There are a good many perquisites
connected with official life in Wash
ington that are rs valuable as they are
pleasant, says a letter to the Atlantis
Constitution.
For instance, each Congressman has
1925 per year for stationery. This has
been generally considered by the out
side world as very unfortunate. for il
encourages the members to write often
and much, which is very bad for any
one.
But there is another sort of per.
quisite which is very agreeable and
pleasant as memento only, and
though hardly considered valuable, is
much more highly priced. Every vice
president of the United States has a
private room near the Senate cham
Der, and the moment new vice presi-
dent is elected. the parties in charge
take down and out the handsome fire
place appointments, supplying their
place by those of even more magnitl.
cent proportions. These fire-sets are
generally very beautiful and the Gus
tom which permits each vice president
to take away the one present during
his Office is highly pleasurable.
But returning for a moment to the
privileges of the Congressman. These
are not so great as once they formerly
were. There was day, and that not
SO long ago, when the contingent ex.
penses of the house included all sort
of things; for instance, there were
toilet sets, cut-glass cologne bottles,
handsomely ornamented mirrors, in
Vulnerable pocket-knives, and the like,
that Congressman were permitted to
buy, and which were paid for out of
the contingent expenses.
Of course. no one will deny, who is
familiar with the habits and lives of
some members here, that these things
were absolutely necessary TO their
comfort and pleasure, but upon
change of administration il was DC
cided that these little luxures must 20,
and 20 they did. And now with the
exception of his stationery accounts, a
Congressman has no more liberty than
a member of the Georgia legislature,
which l believe can be summed up in
freedom from arrest.
And yet with these few privileges
staring them in the face, local paper
here the other day had the cheek to
advise hotel-keepers to be careful in
turning of their gas as a number of
new Congressman had arrived in town.

Grave Charges.

An investigation is going forward to
establish the truth of recent charges that
have been made against the Northern
Hospital for the insane. A year or so
ago a Frenchman who had been sent
there for treatment was discharged as
cured. After his return home he told
of frightful cruelty and inhuman treat
ment which the helpless inmates re-
ceived from the attendants of that in
stitution. No one believed these reports
and the matter was dropped. A week
ago, the wife of German patient, who
was sent there year ago, received
news that her husband was dying. She
went Immediately to Oshkosh where
she found him in very bad condition.
He was wasted to skeleton, his body
was covered with bed sores and his
heels had rotted away. The room in
which he lay, with many other patients
was filthy and so poorly ventilated that
the air was too foul to be endured
Mrs. Seibling got permission to take hel
husband home. On the way he died,
Examination by physicians proved that
the case was one of shocking neglect
and abuse. Those who have friends IN
the asylum are investigating the matter
If such things are true in one instance
the probability is that there will be
revelation of general mistreatment.
