On the State railways In Sweden
there Is generally a doctor for every
thirty.two miles OF line, and in this
way forty-four doctors are employed
by the Government. The private rail-
ways have a similar system. The
medical mon examine all applicants for
employment and reject those physically
disqualified, and especially by defects
Of sight or hearing. They also give
their services to and attend to all In
iured by accidents on the line, to
regular employees and their families In
sickness, to occasional employees while
engaged in service, and to laborers In
the shops who have paid the same
contributions as those engaged In
working the line, and also to their
families. No exception is made in the

The analyses Of snake poisons made
last summer by Drs. Weir Mitchell and
Reichert have been fully confirmed by
other investigators, All OF the venoms
examined are essentially alike; In every
Q they are made up Of three proteid
bodies. The first reduces the blood
pressure, induces swelling (pdema) and
finally brings about putrefactive effects.
The second Is a virulent substance,
~one-twentieth Of . grain OF which will
kill a pigeon in two hours. 1t gives
rise In a few minutes after injection to
enormous infltration of blood into the
neighboring tissue. Tho poisonous
properties OF the third substance are
doubtful. The object Of the analysis
is to eliminate the venom0us principle,
10 that experiments may be made as to
what drug a be used to the best
advantage in n~eutraliz'ng 1t.

WASHINGTON, ID. C., April S.-The
following telegram was received at the
Navy Department to-day from Com
mandant Brown, of the Norfolk Navy
Yard:
The heavy northeast gale set in about

suddenly and was higher than ever
known. being about a foot above the
coping OF the dry dock.
The Pensacola was lifted fem the
blocks, filled with water through the
old and new Kingston valve openings,
and settled ~diagOnally across the
blocks. The water Is over the gun
deck combings. The diver reports that
there was no injury to the bottom.
Have plugged the holes and expect to
pump the ship dry, readjust blocks and
dock again. The gale continues and
the Simpson dock is flooded.

Young People in spectacles.

The Boston Herald says that the
rapid increase in the number of young
people who wear spectacles is becoming
a serious subject of remark, and after
INDUCING in considerable twaddle in its
attempts to account for this evidently
increasing a~fliction, it arrives at the
conclusion that the defects in vision
necessitating the use Of spectacles by
young people are inherited.
There Is nc evidence whatever to
show that the children of the present
day are not naturally as free from dis
eases of the eye, and have not as good
eye-sight as the children OF any proceed
ing age. The conditions of business in
the present age put a greater strain
upon the eyes Of the young, than for
merly, which weakens the eye-sight
and necessitates the use of spectacles.
The houses in our large cities and
towns are built larger and closer to-
gether than formerly, and In most
cases, they are poorly lighted. The
number Of young people employed in
offices and stores In which there is an
insuficiency Of light is constantly in
creasing, and the number of young
people who are now employed at work
in which they r required to examine
and view objects Of diminutive size is
much larger than formerly. The young
people of the present day devote a great
deal more time to reading than those
of former ages, and publishers in their
anxiety to crowd the greatest possible
quantity of matter within a given
space, print much in type which to too
small for the average human eye.
These facts. we think, show the
causes necessitating a more general use
Of spectacles among the young than
formerly, and that the increase in de-
fective eye-sight is the result not of IN
herited disease, but Of the increased
strain put upon the eye by the condi-
tions and requirements Of business.
