A Turtle Farm.

1t occurred to an enterprising Yankee
that turtle farming might be made to pay,
and he according established terrapin,
which is situated about sixty miles from
Mobile. An inclosure of three acres in
extent contains several immense bitches
100 feet in length and ten feet in width,
and these are filled with salt water by two
canals. In these bitches about 10000
turtles are domesticated In winter they
lie imbedded in the mud, and are very
convenient creatures to keep, seeing at
this season they never eat any food. 1t
is not astonishing, therefore, to hear that
these turtles cost no more than 81 per
season to feed, and that New York cheer
fully pays as much as ST a dozen for
fhaul

To persons advanced in years, and those who

Regulator is most peculiarly adapted. Owing
10 its mild action it NAV be taken by the most
delicate and dcbilitated at any time and under

better than more active remedies" Il cures
constipation by gently assisting without forcing
nature. 1t imparts vigorous tone to the diges-
tive organs, improves the appetite, enriches the
blood, builds up and restores the wasted ener-
gies, giving tone and yigor to the whole system.
Mrs. Stephen Menard, of Macon, Ga, SAYS:
my husband being blind for number of years,
required him to lead very se1entary life, and
he suffered extremely from indigestion. He

est child, . years Old was taken violently
i'll last week. DIR. Walker was called
in, and said it was suffering from
abscess on the brain. The child COM
planned of pains in the head. This tended
to confirm the physicians diagnosis. A day
or so later the boy was taken with con-
vulsions, and three other doctors were
called in consultation. On Monday his
symptoms became alarming. Upon
inquiring the doctors learned that the boy
was bitten by the dog. All the symptoms
of hydrophobia followed quickly. So vio-
lent were the convulsions that the child's
hands had to be tied, but he tore them
loose and scratched his mother. He re-
fuses food with growls and swapping. His
actions are very much like those OF dog.
DIR. Walker tonight refused to talk about
the case, but said the symptoms were very

Chicago Merchants Dissatisfied With the
Coast Freight Tariff.

f1Cpyriglt, 1885, by fi California Associaed Press.
CHICAGO, September 18th. - Chairman
Leeds of the Transcontinental Association,
has promulgated new tariff on business
destined to Pacific coast points, which is
decidedly unsatisfactory to Chicago ship
pers. Commodity rates. IS in the previous
tariff, are made for articles manufactured
at Chicago, but list of these articles shown
in the tariff is very incomplete Chicago
is allowed commodity rates on only about
fifteen articles, whereas st. Louis is favored
with a tariff which names mmodity rates
on nearly one hundred and fifty articles
Railroad officials agree that the new rates
are much more favorable for st. Louis than
Chicago. The Chicago Freight Bureau is
trying TO secure some concession from the
transcontinental railroads in favor of Chi
cago shippers, but it is uncertain whether
the effort will be successful.

THE OLD 20" TROUBLE AGAIN.
ST. LOUIS, September 1Sth.-The arrival
in st. Louis of the first through Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy train over the Wa
bash tracks was signalized by the refusal of
the Brotherhood engineers employed as
hostlers TO house the Burlington engines.
and of the local Wabash wipers to clean
the engines. The boycott did not end
here, for when the non Brotherhood en-.
glneers sought board aud lodging they
were refused it on the ground that Brother
hood engineers would not eat or sleep in
the same house with them, and the men
were compelled 10 come downtown for
accommodations. The most serious aspect
OF the trouble lies in the fact that the Bur
nngton road has contract with the Wa
bash which demands the housing of its
engines, and if the Wabash orders its en-
ployes to fulfill the contract q strike on
that road will follow.

Cleveland now asked they had been refused
