ChanRe Business Relations.
CHICAGO, May 2S.-Mr. A. B. Wygant,
for many years general agent of the United
States Express Company, stated tonight
that he would in few days sever his con-
nection with the company, to engage in
other business Mr.. Wygant said a number
of the employees were also leaving the COM
pany's service as a result of the recent cut in
salaries.
A report, apparently well founded, was
in circulation this evening to the effect that
hereafter the Wells Fargo Company and
the Northern Pacific Express would be
operated entirely independent of one another.
The idea is the Northern Pacific now feels
itself in position strong enough to work
entirely alone.

TROUBLES OF THE EYES.
The Habit of Reading In Bed IL n Cause of
Defective Vision.

Defective Vision.
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.1
Poor eyesight is becoming more prevalent
with each succeeding generation. This is
not because the human race is deteriorating,
but because the eye is abused more. Sleep
less and nervous people have q habit of
reading themselves to sleep after they have
retired to bed. More eyes are injured by
this habit than by any other cause. A per-
son in reclining position can not get the
right focus without straining the eye, and
this is what hurts.

among the upper crust, and already great
preparations are being made by society
people for the event. The opening num-
Der of the repertoire is De Koven's "Don
Quixote." OF this opera the Boston
Transcript says:
''In considering Mr.. Reginald DE
Koven's music, the feature which seems
most worthy of praise is the instrumental
ton. Throughout it is clear, interesting,
and economically disposed; that Is TO say,
the best use is made of the few resources
available, that there may be no sacrifices
of expression or failure i'm variety. There
are numerous instances where the middle
parts are ingeniously emphasized for a
brief space with a delightfully."- piquant eff
feet. There are two serenades, one at
the beginning of the opera and at the
opening of the second act; there is also
the serenade which the Don sings as a
model to the country folk, whose lays he
found too sober for his liking; there is a
timental style for Dorothed and Fernando
and finest of all there is the finale of the
second act, which reaches toward and
fairly touches the domain of grand opera.
Let it be noted, too, that the composer
writes with as much skill for voice as
for orchestra.
