The Question of Contarion.

An exchange makes light of the idea
that there may be danger in the tubes
of the phonograph. 1t holds that there
is no danger in the BARRIERS chair or the
wash room or door handles, etc. The
same shaving utensils are used for dif-
ferent men, the same towels, and all
sorts of people handle the same door
knobs and no harm is done How did
the exchange learn that, through these
and other means of connection, disease
was never conveyed?
Did the exchange never hear of the
BARRIERS itch? Do not unaccountable
sores appear upon men of pure blood
and correct habits? How are cholera
and smallpox and yellow fever and skin
diseases conveyed? In the case of the
phonograph there is no danger so long
as the instrument is g private one, as
there is none where ones own shaving
utensils and towels only are used. But
the public phonograph which is operated
by the nickel-in-the-slot process is a diff
ferent matter The two prongs are not
only handled, but thrust into the ears as
close to the drum as possible, and put
into many pairs of ears daily. There
may be no danger from the prongs, but
it is well enough to wipe them thorough
ly with your handkerchief before put
ting them into your ears to hear Gil

The visitor had cloth bound volume

NO PREFERRED CREDITOR ALLOWED.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Sept. 5.-Judge Phil
lips, of,the United States district. court,
rendered a decision today regarding the
preferment of certain creditors by fall
fng firm or corporation. The decision was
of that of suit brought by the Consollda-
ted Tank Line company against the Kan
sas City Varnish company. The Kansas
City Varnish company failed, preferring a
certain number Of its creditors. The Tank
Line company made application for the
appointment of receiver for the benefit
OF all the creditors Judge Phillips grant
ed the application, ruling that corpora
tion in failing condition had no right to
prefer any one creditor. When a corpora
tion, the court decided, is in a failing con-
dition, its directors became trustees for
the benefit of all the creditors and as such
must treat all creditors alike and can not
show preference between persons whom 1t
was their duty to protect.
