RnilroadIng In England.

A paragraph has been going the
round Of the newspapers TO the effect
that in England locomotives carry
neither headlight, whistles nor bells,
and that guards are stationed at inter.
walls of a mile along the tracks. II this
is correct the system Of railroading
must have been completely changed
recently. Guards are only placed on
the track when royal trains are
scheduled, when by the way all ordi-
nary traffic is suspended. AS TO head.

A snnrrnw,s Unwilling Jnurrc,.

\ well known conductor on the
Northern Pacific was telling a queer
story recently at the Merchants about
the compulsory immigration Of a hen
swallow, nests, eggs and all from st.
Paul to Portland, Ore.
The swallows last spring evinced a
particular fondness for the ave of a
sleeping car in the yards in 81. Paul,
and several nests were built by the
busy little workers before the repairs
on the interior Of the car were com
pleted and il was returned To the SER
vice. When the a was pulled out
and attached to the west bound train,
there was a commotion among the
feathcred community; but the train
pulled out just the same, and every one
supposed that the swallows had CON
cluded TO build new homes and start
new families. When the first stop
was made, however, there emerged
from one of the nests a badly scared
hen swallow, which flew around and
about the car until the train started,
when she darted into the nest again,
resuming her exhibition Of bewilder.
ment at each stopping place. The
bird travelled all the way To Portland
in the same way, being kept watch on
by the sleeping car porter, who, when
ordered 10 do SO by one Of the road
officials at Portland, knocked down
the nest, and the bird mother, beroft
of the home and prospective progeny
she had SO zealously guarded, flew
wildly about for a time and ut last
few away.-St Paul Globe.

"a Close Quarters,

Calcutta, and a grand tiger hunt was organ
lied, which lasted six weeks and ranged over
16O miles of country. The duke shot eight

"TWo cubs Of tigress had been SHOT, and
the mother hemmed in by q line of elephants.
There was an idea that she was crouching in
a small patch of jungle behind a tree on the
bank of small stream, but none of our ele-
plants could be got anywhere near it. After
some time my elephant, being plqckier than
the others, was induced to move forward
and push the tree down. While thus
engaged the tigress sprapg out from
beside it with roar and a tremendous leap
right to the top of my howdah, smashing In
the front of it-breaking my gun with one
blow of her paw and exploding the right

Condition Of the CrOps.

The week ending with June was cooler
than usual in all agricultural districts except
in Dakota where the temperature was above
the average Tor he week. In the Missouri
valley the temperature ranged from to 6
deg. below the normal. The seasonal tenn
perature from Jan / to June 80 differs about
/ deg. from the normal in all districts from
the lake regions southwest to the gulf coast.
The season is about one week in advance in
Dakota, Northwestern Minnesota an d
Northern Nebraska. There was an excess OF
rainfall during the week. Over 75 per cent
of the seasonal rainfall occurred generally
the states of the Mississippi valley and in
the cotton region. There is o large deficiency
in rainfall, amounting to about so per cont Of
the normal, in Northwestern Minnesota and
Northeastern Dakota Showers, however
occurred in this region during the week. Well
distributed rains occurred on the Pacific
coast from San Francisco northward to
Washington Territory, the rainfall in the
grain regions ranging from one-fourth to
lhree-fourths of an inch. The weather was
Tavorab bic for all growing crops throughout
the central valleys and Northwest, except in
Dakota, where drought has caused some in
jury to wheat, oats and barley, but corn is
reported as fine and growing rapidly in this
state and generally throughout the corn
belt. From Minpesota reports show that

| ti0ns for the week were especially favorable

A Cranky Widow Among the Indians.

A sensation is reported from the Standing
Rock Indian agency. The chief participants
being Mrs. C. Wilder, of Newark, N. j., and
Sitting Bull, the great Sioux chief Sitting
Bull has many admirers, and among them is
Mrs. Wilder. During his recent illness she
visited him in his camp, and when he recov-
cred sufficiently to travel she made arrange
ments with him to convey her in his wagon
from Standing Rock to the Rosebud agency
AS it is against the rules for the Indians to
leave their reserva tiOn without permission, u
person to whom Mrs. Wilder told of her con
tract with Sitting Bull suggested that she
should better consult Agent Mclaughlin
She acted upon the suggestion, and Nc
Laughlin informed her that Ire could not per-
nit Sitting Bull to go about from one reser-
yatiOn to another. and positively refused
to have the willy old chief to accompany
her to Rosebud. No sooner had the
agent refused than Mrs. Wilder few into a
rage and declared her intention to see her
political friends in Washington and secure
Maj. McLaughlin's removal. Those who
anne from Standing Rock state that she
to the major. and accused him OF using the
Indians as prisoners. So abusive and threat
enIng was her language that the agent polite
ly ordered her toleave the reservation. Mrs.
Wilder is q widow visiting the reservation.
Agent McLaughlin's position in the matter
is unquestiUnably right, especially at this
time as Sitting Bull would surely prove a
disturbing element at the lower agency dur
ing the conference of the commissioners on
the question of opening the reservation to
settlement ''-

Effects of Close Shaving.

Do you know what q close shave
meansP says writer in an exchange.
l never did until l looked at a face
the other day through a microscope
which had been tres.ted to this luxuri-
Gus process. Why, the entire skin
resembleo piece of raw beef. To
make the face perfectly smooth re-
quires not only the removal of the
hair, but also portion of the cuticle;
and u close shave means the removal
of layer of skin all around. The
blood vessels thus exposed are not
visible to the eye, but under the mi
croscope each little quivering mouth
holding a. minute blood drop protests
against such treatment The nerve
tips are also uncovered and the pores
are left unprotected, which makes the
skin tender and unhealthy. This
sudden exposure of the inner layer of
the skin renders a person liable to
have colds, hoarseness and sore
throat

Filling a Long Felt Want

Some day or other every reporter
will carry around a phonogra phi, and
when he interviews a man the latter
words will be taken down with an ac-
curacy admitting of no dispute, Then
when the interviewed gentleman
comes around in the morning like vol
eanic eruption to explain that his Ian
'guage was distorted, and all that sort
of thing, the reporter can quietly pull
the phonegraph with one hand and a
gun with the other, and ask him what
he is going to do about it, When this
scheme can be successfully operated a
long felt want will be filed. AS it, is
at present. when a man gets into trou-
BILE because; of his remarks being faith
fully printed he at once swears that
the reporter mixed up his words with
an egg beater and run them in. In
such q manner the guiieless newspaper
man frequently gains reputation for
lying, which he does not deserve.
