Some Experiments In Hypnotism.

AS result of the revived interest in
hypnotism caused by the Eyraud- Bonn
pard trial in Paris some experiments in
hypnotism were made at the Hotel
Kaiserhoff, Berlin. Monday, when some
startling results were produced One
subject in a hypnotic condition showed
that it is not always possible to suggest
to a hypnotized person to perform acts
which are absolutely contrary to that
persons natural inclinations. The sub
ject in question was sportsman, who
was successfully made to believe that he
was present at horse race at which he
had backed the winning horse, but when
it was suggested to him that he should
divide his winnings he awoke with a
start.-Pall Mall Budget

A Sleighing Party.

Last evening number of the bright
young people of The Dalles made up a
sleighing party and under the skillful
guidance of Mr.. Ward who handled the
ribbons over a spanking team of four
horses, the trip was made in safety to
Mill Creek and return. The ride was a
pleasant one and accomplished in safety
despite all the noise that the young
ladies made, and which a Mill Creeker
said might have walked the Seven Sleep
ers. Following are those who participa-
ted:
Misses Clara Story, Eta Story, Mable
Mack, Ruth Cooper, Jennie Brown,
Anna Sylvester, Grace Mardin, and
Messrs. NJ. Donald, Will Michel, Fred
Clarke, Densmore Parish, Howard Rid
dell, Bert Phelps, Ed Wingate.

Co1umbus Sunday Paper rragedy.

New YORK, March IA special from
Columbus, o., says: ]. w. Elliott and
his brother, P. J. Elliott, were removed
to the county jail from the city prison
shortly after midnight last night by
order of the police commissioners, who
met especially at the mayors residence,
and concluded that as the Sunday news
papers would contain notices referring
to the tragedy of last Monday, it would
be safer to have the prisoners in the
strong county jail than in the himsy city
prison. This was ordered notwithstand-
ing that persons in charge of the news
papers referred to gave assurances that
would make conservative references.
The prisoners were safe behind the
doors at the Jail before it was known to
the public that the transfer was to be
made. At the Jail the Elliotts were
locked in seperate cells. In an editorial, !,
over his own name, w. J. Elliott simply
asks suspension of public opinion un-
til he is tried. In the news columns of
his newspaper he publishes in full the
articles in last Sundays issue of the rival
newspaper, by it's editors and Osborne,
the man he shot, in order, as he explains
in preface, that the public may judge
OF the provocation. He states self-de-
tense will be his plea.

Curing a Cold.

To get rid of cold send to the drug
gist for mixture containing sulphate of
atropia one A0th of a grain; sulphate
of quinine two grains, and Fowler's solu-
ton, five drops, to each dose. Take a
dose once in two hours for three or four
times, or until the throat begins to feel
slightly dry. IF this does not entirely
relieve the symptoms, repeat the treat
ment the next day, Copy this prescrip-
tion carefully, and use it with care, as
some of the ingredients are poisonous.
There is no danger in using it if the di-
rections are followed exactly.
Before going to bed take warm bath.
The next morning sponge the body rap
idly with tepid water, rubbing it hard
until the blood circulates quickly and
the skin is in glow. Take more exer-
else than usual, and do not sit in hot
room with the windows shut Mix a
teaspoonful of cream of tartar in tum-
blerful of water and drink it during the
day. If there is constipation take a
gentle laxative, as rhubarb pill 1t is
very important that all the avenues of

B. Root, Essex county, N. J.: Valua-
BILE horses and cattle may have broken
bones of the limbs set, dressed and heal
with considerable degree of success
But in consequence of the struggles of
injured animals, whenever secured by
every known appliance of the sHllful
surgeon, deformity from displacement is
the rule and not the exception. The
fore legs of valuable horses may be set
and dressed with fair degree of success
where the proper appliances of the vet
erinarian and his skill are secured at an
early hour after the accident has oc-
CURED.
There are stations doing good service
after having had a fore leg broken One
that has had a broken leg is fine road
horse, and three minute horse will be
compelled to take his dust all day long
unless the driver of the broken legged
stallion drives out of sight of the slower
horse. In every serious injury Of ami
mails we commend immediate surgical
advice, and if the case is incurahle have
the animal put out of suffering. .-Ameri-

Quick work by Reporters.

The greatest feat of reporting that has
ever been performed by the official re-
porters of congress was that of preparing
the senate report for The Record We'd
nesday night, Jan. IA. The chief re-
porter was sick, and but two men were
available to do the work. The senate
was in session for fourteen hours, all of
which time was spent in an active dis
cussion of the silver bill. 1t was after
12 o'clock at night when they adjourned,
and during the session they had talked
over 120,0 900 words. Two stenographers
took the report, and, by debating their
notes into monographs for typewriters
to transcribe, they had all the copy ready
for the printers by 8 o'clock in the morn
ing, and The Record was on the desks
of the senators when congress convened.

Plant Alfalfa for the Fowls.

Alfalfa should be raised by every one
for chickens, for it Is superior to other
grasses for this use. The laying hens
prefer it to either red or white clover,
and it benefits the fowl as no other kind
of green food can. When it Is cut off it
grows up rapidly and becomes thicker,
supplying am almost inexhaustible am
ount Of green food for the birds Nothing
but the purest seeds should be used, and
good ground given TO it. Light, sandy
soil is good for it, and it must be pro-
tected from the weeds when young.
After it gets good start it grows 50
thickly that other plants are crowded
out of the soil The seeds should be
planted in April, and in early June it
can be cut off for tbe chickens. It will
continue to grow luxuriantly all through
the summer.-Annie c. Webster in

Rest Hog Feed-

The bane of extensive pig breeding in
this country has always been too large
dependence on corn as feed. Corn is
good for fattening hogs, and it is chiefly
in corn growing districts that the bulk
OF marketable pork is produced. Yet
even here farmers who grow pork should
provide, 80 far as possible, their breed
ing animals with something less fatten-
ing Land that will grow corn will also
grow good oat crops, and there is no bet
ter feed for any growing or breeding
animal than ground oats. If it is too
fattening the oatmeal may be mixed
with fine wheat middlings, which are
worth half their cost after they go
through the pig into the manure pile.
In summer clover pasture should be
provided in an orchard if possible, and
this with fallen fruit will make a little
ground oats and middings go a long
way in keeping a herd of sows in the
best possible condition for producing
good breeding animals.
Exclusive corn feeding is now general
ly conceded to be a main cause of the
prevalence of hog cholera When for
generations swine have had no feed ex-
cept corn, saving possibly little grass
in summer, their constitutions are grad
uaIy undermined and become unable to
resist disease. Breeding for generations
from immature sows has also done some
thing to weaken the constitution, though
it may have had some compromising ad-
vantage in promoting early maturity

Protesting Tracks fr,

Protecting Tracks from Drifting Snow.
The Delaware and Hudson railroad
has adopted a novel means of preventing
the snow from drifting back on the tracks
after it has once been removed. In those
places where it is most likely to drift
back to the rails banks or walls of snow,
some twenty feet to one side of the road,
are erected. The blowing snow comes
to these walls, is arrested in its flight and
either stays there or just drops to the
other side of the wall, The snow wall
affords much protection from drifts. The
wall is formed of that snow which has
melted enough to cake.-New York Tele-

Demand for a st.ndard R.iI.

II don't pretend to know much about
the railroad business, said the superin-
tendent OF one of the great rolling mills
of the Illinois Steel company, s.but /
don't see any necessity for the diversity
of the steel rails in use by our railroads
today. The fact is, each road or system
OF roads has its own particular form of
rail and viii use no other kind. You
can readily perceive how this handicaps
the rolling mill men. Part of our works
are shut down at present because we can
not safely go ahead and make q stock of
rails to be sold in the future. IF there
were but one standard of rail in use we
could do this, because then there would
be market for our products at all times
If one road did not want our surplus
rails another would.
81 have talked to half dozen railway
magnates at least, and every ONE of them
holds precisely the same views that do
upon this subject. But no one seems
able to suggest any practical solution of
the difficulty. Each of them said: 4
heartily agree with you. There ought
to be uniform rail in use throughout
the country. And our road has the best
rail that has been invented, too. I
would Like tosee it adopted as the stand
ard rail. Of course our rail is fully pro-
tected by patents, but for a proper con-
sideration we would permit other roads
to use it,
teThere it is in NUTSHELL Every road
wants uniform rail; every one wants
its own particular rail adopted; every
one hopes to grow rich by its patent
rights if a uniform rail is to be agreed
upon. It is impossible, I think, to estab-
ish a uniform standard. But it would
prove good thing for all parties if it
could be done. Rolling mills then might
be busy every working day in the year y

Money in Ginseng Root.

An uptown man in ten weeks has paid
s., 1856 for ginseng root taken from the
Catskin mountains. This root is used
principally by Cinnamon, who consider
it valuable medicine capable of curing
all diseases. 1t is exported in large guam
titles. The root hereabouts is dug up by
boys, who in this way make considerable
money during season. The merchant
referred to is extending this business,
and next year expects to secure at least
$1,000 worth of the root.-Kingston

ABOUT HILL AND HUNT.
Reports That They Have Formed a
Combination.

Railroad men generally are disposed
to view the news about Hill and Hunt
as confirming the report of combina-
tion between the two. Hill is accredited
with ar intention of coming into Port
land by way of Spokane, Pomeroy and
the Hunt system, also of building into
Gray's Harbor and securing Hunts valu-
able subsidies, both there and in Port
land. He wants, it is thought, to tap
the great grain regions of the Inland
Empire. Hunts Gray's Harbor road is
practically completed from Centralia to
Montesano, and arrangements have
already been effected, by which Hunt is
to use the Northern's right-of-way be-
tween Montesano and Aberdeen.

LAST fall the democratic states
men, of Kansas, were patting the
alliance upon the back and claiming
that their doctrines as enunciated BY
the st. Louis platform, were the
same, in substance, as those promul-
gated by democratic orators, dem
ocratic press and enunciated in dem
ocratic platforms for the last quarter
of century. In brief, to hear them
talk, we were led to infer that the
only difference between them was
that 'twixt s'tweedle dunn and 0twee-
die dee both aiming at precisely
the same results. This, we believe
to be true and the great desideratum
being the defeat Of the republican
party. We might add here, paren-
thetically. that all democrats did not
fully subscribe to this idea. There
we're some who remained democrats
from principle and who would have
to do with the unhallowed
combination as it existed last fall,

Still the Favor1te.

If you are contemplating a trip for

member that the Burlington Route is still

to Chicago hardly needs more than mere

from the Missouri river to. st. Louis, that
being a night train, placing passengers in
st. Louis in the morning in time for
breakfast and all eastern connections, but
on account of the increasing demand an
other train has been put on and now
leaves Kansas City, Atchison and st. Jo-
seph in the morning, placing the passen-
ger in st. Louis in the early evening of
the same day.
Omaha and Council Bluffs are put in
rapid communication with the lower Mis-
souri, river points by two superb daily
trains, one leaving Kansas City late in
the morning and the other in the evening,
making the run from Kansas City in
about eight hours. The morning train
carries through buffet sleeping car to
st. Paul and Minneapolis, placing the
passenger in the twin cities twenty hours
after leaving Kansas City.
