The George Southern and Florida
Railroad 1.-The Macon road-will build a
short line to Barlow, we understand.
Presumably it will be standard guage
air line, or something approaching an
air line. A party has gone down the
proposed line of road prospecting and
will return to this city in few days.
There is twenty millions of capital
backing the Macon road, and the prop
erty, we are assured, will not be sold to
any other company. 1t seems idle to re-
peat such assurances when so much ev i
dence that the projectors are entirely in
earnest has been given, but there may
be those who still need such comfort.
There are some on the other, hand who
not only expect to see locomotives
putting IN our streets, within this year,
each bearing the letters &c. S. & F. r.
r" on its sides, but also passenger cars
attached bearing the legend "Pennsyl-
vania Railroad" over the window tops.
We believe they will be gratified with
the one sight and hope that the other
may become more than a matter OF
prophecy.

What to Do in Cases of sunstrok

What to Do in Cases of Sunstroke e.
The recent torrid weather has occa-
stoned considerable interest in sun
strokes, and it is well perhaps to con-
slider some of the symptoms, and the
remedies to be employed in cases of
emergency. Sunstroke, it should be
understood, does not depend upon the
sun either for moral or financial sup
port, for SunStrokeS occur quite as often
at midnight as midday. They come
when the ventilation is poor and the
heat great. Pain and nausea and ex-
haustlon often precede it, with vertigo
and dim vision, or a sense of
everything's being of uniform
color, red or green or other,
as it may be; the pupils are often con-
tracted, the person becomes rapidly I'M
immensely, recovery being rare
when the temperature has exceeded
1O7 deg. There are other symptoms,
but these are the most usual; par
tial paralysis often follows the pros
trated condition of the nervous system,
and 1t has been found in fatal cases,
which are more than half of all, that the
blood has lost the life of its organic con-
StituentS. The treatment consists of cold
dOuche on the spine and ice on the head,
of stimulation of the surface,
with blisters and electricity, espe-
cially at the back of the neck and the
spine. with enemas of brandy and of
purgatives, and when the breathing is
difficult, with frequent turning upon the
side and face. This all or any may do
with safety before the physician arrives,
and without waiting for him, but no
time should be lost in securing the best
medical advice

COW, SWINE, HORSE,

The Greatest Is the Hog. Says
One, Another the Cow, or the
Horse-Long Prairie Points.
Special to the Globe.
LONG PRAIRIE, July 9.-While
stopping at the Long Prairie hotel I
heard group of men talking over the
merits of the institute, whose enthu-
siastic sessions were just closed. One
farmer, obviously more piOus than the
rest, or at least better verSed in Scrip
ture, exclaimed: 1.-THE horse, the COW,
the hog!-these three; but the greatest
of these is the hog"
why the hog?" asked his neighbor,
with comic gravity.
BECAUSE" was the reply, "St. Theo-
dOre has proved to me that the sow is
the neatest and most profitable animal
of the lot when you give her swineship
good breeding and treatment"
'BOsh on your hOgW chimed in an
other, putting vOciferOusly with his
cigar. 'Give me the high-bred horse.
According to the two doctors, the horse
led us into civilization"
''Put the COW observation-disclosures
beef,' said another with generous eX-
pectOration.
AS the fun went round in earnest dis
cussion, a farmer, leaning back in his
chair, said: 1--WE have some COMPOUNDED
confounding fools among us who think
they know it all, and stayed at home to
enjoy their sulks. l wouldn't have
missed the drill we've had for S..
Didn't that superintendent give US Jer-
sey law, though?"
''Cow.' "dog," ''horse," ''hog!" was
the response, and | was convinced the
farmers there meant business. The
population of
LONG PRAIRIE
is 700. FavOrably located on a branch
of the Minneapolis d Manitoba railroad
out from Sank Center, commanding the
trade of a rich country all around, hav-
ing the leadership of talented citizens
in varied branches of industry, and two
well-conducted weeklies to help pave
the way, this town is booked i'll destiny
to be one of prominence, both for bust
ness and influence. There are many in
ago associated with it. Here was
the grand rendezvous of the
now scattered and almost extinct
Winnebagoes, and here was the Indian
agency of that famous tribe. Walking
out one evening near the imposing
court house, l met an elderly gentle
man whose physiOgnomy impressed me
that an acquaintance might be of value.
1t was none other than Samuel Lee, one
of the old veteran pioneers of Mime
sofa. Among the names he mentioned
of his sterling compatriots who
traversed these wilds during the early
days of frontier life was "Joe Brown"
as he called him, 1.-The generous-hearted,
whOle-souled Democrat" Nothing so
charms me as to listen to stories which
such men can best tell. He, or some
other of his associates, should write up
the history of those times, and snatch
from oblivion the scenes and events of
suffering of battle and victory.

ABOUT THE CITY.

A Twelfth street gentleman walked
into the store of a friend yesterday and
bought china pitcher. To his surprise
the price, instead of being rs cents as
usual, was 80 cents.
"How is this?" he demanded. "The
last one bought was only rs cents"
THAT'S the tariff" responded his
friend, hiding a smile. "Didn't you
know the tariff had been increased on
chinaware?"
mo, l didn't. Is that so? And does
the tariff increase the cost to con-
SumerSr
"Certainly it does. This an American
pitcher, but the tariff of 60 per cent ele-
Yates the price to just what the imported
pitcher could be sold for. If there were
no tariff on china l could sell you that
pitcher for half what you have paid
for it,"
"You don't say so. I have always
been told the tariff did not increase the
cost to the consumer. ! know petter
now"
After he went out the dealer smiled
and remarked that he had given him an
object lesson in political economy.
