gineers and tiremen at the stock yards was
settled to-day. Both sides made conces-
sions, the company granting an advance o.
cents an hour to the engineers and II
cents an hour to the tremen. The original
demand was for an advance OF from % to 81
cents al hour for the engineers and from

mand an increase of two cents an hour.

SUMMERS LAST WISH.
He Did Not Believe That the Dealt
Bed q Place for Religious Work.

He Did Not Believe That the Death
Bed a Place for Religious Work.
From the Kansas city Times.
The fact has always been conceded that
Charles Sumner was of high moral tenn
permanent, and as such likely to become a
religious partisan Of some special faith or
creed. He may have worshiped OCCASION
ally at some church at Washington during
hiss long career as senator, but 1t does not
appear that be affiliated with any of them.
Mr.. Sumner had an intense horror OF cleri-
cal ministrations at dying bedsides, and
made no secret Of his feelings in this particu-
lar. He believed it to be the very refine
ment of cruelty to add to the death agony
by picturing TO the dying man the torments
of hell in store for sinners unless they con-
fessed aud repented. As an Illustration of
this, the following story was told your
correspondent by gentleman who was
present when the incident occurred:
One Of Mrs. Summers most intimate
friends and confidants was Congressman
Hooper Of Massachusetts, lately deceased,
and who was ALWAYS welcome at Mr..
Summers house. One day at dinner the
conversation turned on the subject of
clerical illustrations to the dying. and Mr..
Sumner said: Hooper, | want TO exact
solemn promise from you. Promise me, on
your word of honor, that il you survive
me, you will protect my dying bedside from
the presence of pious intruders. Don't let
them come near me-" The promise was
given, and Mr.. Sumner made a similar
promise to Mr.. Hooper. Some months
after Mr.. Sumner was taken seriously i'll
with "angina pectoris, and lay at the point
of death. His friend, Mr.. Hooper, re-
manned with him, and, even when writhing
with agony, he reminded HoopeA of his
promise
Finally it became evident that he could
not long survive. and the sad intelligence
was communicated to the sergeant-at-arms
of the Senate, who at once advised the
chaplain, the Rev. DR.. Sunderland, and the
latter repaired to Mr.. Summers house to
administer spiritual comfort to the dying
man. He was met at the door by Mr.
Hooper, who, mindful of his promise, in
vited DR.. Sunderland into the parlor and
explained the situation. SIT is no disre-
spect to you, DR.. Sunderland" said Mr.
Hooper, "but this is Mr.. Summers wish,
and l cannot permit you to see him. There
is only one Office you can perform now.
Let us pray that, in the mercy of Provi-
dence, our friend may die free from pain or
suffering"
And SO DIR. Sunderland and the household
united in prayer, while Charles Sumner, in
the upper bedchamber. breathed his last, as
he had wished. free from the presence of
pious intruders."

FACTS ABOUT FLIES.
A Popular Error as to Their Feet
Corrected.

From the Washington Stdr
"The popular notion that house flies walk
on the ceiling by the help of the suckers on
their feet is a mistaken one," said man of
science to Star reporter. "Notwithstand-
ing the testimony on this point of many old
and respected authors, the fact is that tho
fly has no suckers on his feet at all but each
of those six members ends in a pair of little
cushions and a pair of hooks The cushions
are covered with ever so many knobbed
hairs, which are kept moist by an exuding
fluid. Thus fly is able to walk on smooth
wall, or ceiling, or window pane, and
apparently defy the law of gravitation by
the adhering power of the moist hairy pads.
You will understand the theory of it if you
will touch the moistened end or your fore
finger to the window glass or any smooth
surface and observe the perceptible adhe-
sion. For walking on rough surfaces the
hy's foot cushions are of no use; but the
insect is provided with the twelve strong
hooks mentioned to do its rough travel
with, clinging by them to any such surface
as a whitewashed wall or cloth.
"Another prevalent fallacy is that the
smaller flies seen in houses are young ones.
AS is the case with all insects, the f1y's
growth is accomplished in the larva states !:
1t ends with the issuing from the pupa aud
the expansion Of the wings. Individual flies
differ in size or maturity. just as is the case
with man and other animals. Every house
fly that you see was once crawling mag
got The eggs laid by the female fly are
usually deposited in warm manure or in
decomposing vegetation. Each stable in
summer that is not kept remarkably clean
is a Matching and propogating place for
flies. Within twenty-four hours after the
eggs are laid they are Matched out into foot
less maggots, which inhablt the filth they
are born in for week and then contract to
little brown objects known as papuria.
Within this hardened skin the maggot is
transformed Into the perfect fly, which
crawls out of the puparium five days later,
already grown to full sizs, and wings its
way to share your luncheon. A fly lives
about three weeks. When the cold weather
comes the flies nearly all die; but a few
vigorous females remain torpid in hooks
and crannies, thus surviving the winter
and continuing their species.
