LIBBY PRISON.
The Hack Drivers Not Wholly Unhappy

RICHMOND, Va, May 18.-There re
is much enjoyment here over the
wreck of the train carrying a portion
of Libby prison to Chicago, and the
fact that relic hunters have carried
away many of the bricks, etc. The op-
position to the removal is as deep now
as when it was first suggested, and
the brag is now made that the build
ing put up in Chicago will not be
a complete representation of the old
prison. Missing bricks must be re-
placed by new ones. The larger por-
ton of the building stands here yet.
The negro hack drivers have been
much agitated over the contemplated
removal in view of the fact that many
strangers desire to be driven to Libby
prison. They have reached the con-
clusion, however, that they can still
work the site of the building.

NINE DOCTORS FAILED.
Remarkable Cures-HOw they were Done
by an Advertising Doctor.

A CARD TO THE PUBLIo:-I feel that
L would not be doing my duty to wo-

how badly afflicted I have been and
how and where to be cured. Ten years
ago was taken with painful menstru-
| alton, and have been troubled that
way since that time, accompanied with
troubles in every conceivable way.
About three months ago the climax
came, and was Frustrated with pain
through the heart, chest and lungs,
and confined to my bed from ex-
cessive hemorrhage or flowing. After
nine doctors of different schools of

L am overioyed with the result of the

The following tribute to the gift and
skill of Drs. Darrin is q remarkable

chronic pericarditis, accompanied with
great pain around the heart all that

knowledge of medicine, as also that of
my colleagues, and found no relief
until coming under the electromagnetic
ic treatment of Drs. Darrin. A little
more than month elapsed since 1

How Men Get Rich.

That wasn't q bad investment which
Erwin Davis made couple of years
ago. Erwin Davis is the capitalist. who
so successfully tried to sell his gallery of
paintings some months ago at fancy up
set prices. He is smarter fnancier tan
picture seller. About two months ago
he happened to learn that the second
mortgage bonds of the Richmond and
Allegheny Railroad company could be
purchased at very low figure. Davis
has yearning for low priced railroad
nond. He looked into the matter and
found that the company had defaulted
on the interest, and was apparently go
ing to wreck and ruin. He bought the
entire issue, 100000, from the dis
gusted holders at ten cents on the dol
lar. That was an investment of $500, 000.
Being interested in the road he now
insinuated himself into the management,
and very soon he controlled the board of
directors. He,so, worked things that 81
entire reconstruction of the road was
deemed imperatively necessary. He tnen
invited the attention Of: Mr.. Huntington
to the fact that his Chesapeake and Ohio
system would not be complete without
the Richmond and Allegheny. Hunting
ton and Davis put their heads together
and the result was a ninety-nine year
lease Of the Davis road to the Huntington
system, the second mortgage bonds be-
ing guaranteed per cent. interest, which
makes their market value eighty cents
on the dollar. Profit to shrewd Erwin
Davis in two years, $1,000 00.-NeW

As a Business Venture.

The business of the EiffeI tower turns
out to be immense. III. Eiffel calculated
that when everything was in working
order the gate money would be S., 900 a
day. Since the lifts have been in opera
ton he is thought to have averaged more
than this. 1t costs franc to enter the
tower, two francs to get up in the lift to
the second floor, and four francs to the
top. On any of the ordinary full price
days more than 10000 people have paid
admission. and with the increased prices
for those using the elevator. the entire
receipts exceed $4,000. The original
cost of the EiffeI tower, ali included,
was little less than 81 600 900. The
proprietor has to keep it in repair, and
hand over one-fourth of his gate money
to the exhibition. 1t is estimated that it
will be half paid for when the exhibit
ton closes, and then it will remain GER
tainiy three years more. and perhaps
ten.-Bostorf Budget.

How the Boys Saw tho Circus.

The admirers and owners Of cats In
Camden are up in arms over the suddGG
disappearance Of their feline retzs Fog
Abe last two or three days complaints
have been made all over the city by own
ers of cats that their animals were miss
ing. The secret of their mysterious dis
appearance is out at last. Tho Royal
Menagerio and Dime Circus is in Camden
with a tent full Of wild animals.
The manager has discovered an mex
pensive food for his beasts-live cats
which cost considerably less than fresh
meat. The managers mode of securing
the cats is to offer small boys q ticket to
the show for every cat brc'lght to him.
The Camden small boy, as soon as he
learned of the circus mans offer, started
out with bag on his back to catch cats,
and the back alleys have been full of
these juvenile hunters. After being
brought to the circus the cats are stored
away until dinner time, when they are
!, thrown into the cages of the hungry
tigers and lions. Philadelphia Inquirer.

Electric Heat.

During IL, past few days series Oh
worry interesting tests have been made in
heating a silway passenger coach, fun
.piSaed BY he Richmond, Fredericksburg
antl Potomac Railroad company, at the
Byrd street station, by means of the Bur
tcg: electric heaters. These tests have
recn conducted by MIR. L. w. TTatferd,
electrical engineer and superintendent of
the Virginia Electric Light and Power
company, whose command of the neces-
asary rcasuring instruments enabled him
to get exact figures of the amount of cur
rent used in the work.
FoIl Teen heaters, having n radiating
surfasL of seventy square feet, We're
placed in the car, one under every other
seat. Vacancy on one side being fille6
by y heater on the opposite side. Wires
were run from the power station ON
Seventh street into the car through one
of its front windows, and switch was
provided for letting on or cutting off the
current The main object of the test
was to demonstrate that by the use of a
powerful current for short time only a
car could be heated to the desired tenn
perature by means of the Burton electric
heaters more quickly than by any other
known method; and the next was to
show that this temperature could be
maintained by the use of current of
much less voltage Us cheaply as the pres
ent methods of warming railway cars.
According 20 the calculations of Mr..
Trafford, the expense, represented in the
use of coal, of heating a car with q
strong current to difference of 90 dogs,
Fahr. above the outside temperature,
would be at the rate of twelve cents per
hour, or six cents for half all hour, the
limit of time it is proposed to take to
warm q car before it is attached to a
train. He estimates that the cost of
maintaining this temperature from a
small dynamo, after the car had been put
in motion, would be, for coal consumed
one and half cent per hour.-Rich,
