noctors Tender Hearted.

Doctors, good doctors, are thousand
times more tender hearted than any
other men, because they know just
what the pain is and how 1t Is hurting,
not only your body but your mind.
They know just when you are worrying
over something; yes, and just what
medicine you need, beside that which
comes in bottles from the chemist.
They know you need cheerful words;
not too many. They know you need
something to distract your attention
from yourself, and they come into your
sick room as /; they brought rays OF
sunshine with them, and leave you feel-
ing as many times better as you felt
worse before they came. A man who
isn't cheerful naturally, who isn't born
with that golden virtue, ought never to
become doctor. / should think the
best vocation for him to take would be
to sell ready made underwear to ladies,
but a doctor-welll il there's anything
between q man and an angel, that is, on

only cure your pains, but make you abb
solutely thankful to pay his bill and
make you willing to pawn your soul to
get the money to do 1t with.-Courier-

Preventing Frost.

The manipulators OF the elements are
now about to turn their attention from
rain-making to the artificial prevention
OF frost. Mr.. L. G. Kniffen OF Chicago
has written to Secretary Rusk in re-
gard to the matter, suggesting that the
materials used by Colonel Dryeniurtn
in producing rain-if they ever pro-
duced rain-be tested as a means TOR
'screating sort OF fog which will be
preventative against the ravages Of
frost" That is to say, the lombard
ment OF the clouds win not be to the ex-'
tent to SO rip them open that the rains
NAV descend upon the earth, but sim
ply enough to produce vapors or a sort
OF fog" sufficient to keep of frost. This
is likely to require such delicate marks
manship that the military may have to
be called in and the whole proceedings
transferred TO the war department.
These anti-frost people may as well
be notified that they will array against
them the largest part-avoirdupois
weight-of the public press. The
blanket newspapers will oppose this In.
reference with frost as being direct
interference with their usefulness, for
does not every reasoning being know
that the chief use Of blanket sheet Is
to cover cabbages, sprouts, cucumbers
and pumpkin vines from the Obstructive
fingers OF Jack Frost? Each year the
blanket sheets are making 1t possible
for the farmers to cover more and more
acreage, and therefore the blanket
newspapers may be expected to fall up

succeeded in doing what Mr. Gould has
often claimed he was about to do, viz:
Developing railroad property. AS a
consequence of this, anything that
Mr.. Ingalls, has to say re-
garding the railroad situation has a value
which no one, either in Wall street or out
side of it, you'd accord to anything which
comes from Mr.. Gould. Mr.. Ingalls,, in a
published interview. expresses the utmost
surprise at the published dtterances at
tributed to Mr.. Gould in regard to the
formation of Il combination OF six roads
east of st. Louis adverse to the Missouri
Pacific. He points out the fact that grain
traffic is only 10 per cent of the total bust

that the com bimatiOn sends all its grain by
way Of Chicago, Chicago has the same com
plant to make IN regard to St. Louis The
fact Of the matter is. according to Mr..
ingalls,, that MIR. Gould cannot get better
rates than anybody else, and the combina

to keep rates up ana prevent cutting The

Indignation ran high in Cedar Hill at the

would be. To-day j. :. y. Carroll, rela-

charges against Harrington for alleged

that Harrington Informed Poney Wilson
that his wife, Mrs. Tennessee J. Harring-

Mrs. Harrington denies the whole allega-

Jaw Gould's Health.
Special to the Gazette.

special 10 the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Oct 2-Alarming reports
JAY Gould'S health. The publications of
these reports had their origin late yester-
day afternoon in the bear rumors IN Wall
street. where they were used with some
effect for the purpose of breaking down the
market. The reports had it that at the
meeting of the Missouri Pacific directors
on Wednesday, Gould broke down, became
incoherant in his utteranceS and suddenly
burst into tears. The attack, ii was de-
clared. was of hysterical character, TO
which he was liable, and resulted from eX-
IRENE mental strain and imperfect diges-
ton 1t was also asserted that Gould was
similarly affected al meeting of the Union
Pacific directors week or ten days ago.
At Gould's office in the Western Union
building this morning 1t was stated that
Gould was at lrvington and would not be
down to-day. Regarding the story of
Gould's i'll health. it was said that Gould
had been at his Office every day this week
until to-day, and that he was there yestcr-
day when there was no special necessity
for his being there. This it was claimed did
not look as if he was very i'll. Notwith-
standing that statement. however, it was
learned by reporter of THE GAZETTE that
the story of Gould having been attacked
while at the Missouri Pacific meeting is
substantially true. 1t is stated on the
authority of one OF the directors who was
present at the meeting that Gould broke
down completely. went to pieces" as he
expressed ii, and had 4 hySterical hi of
weeping while explaining the situation of
the company to his fellow directors.
From what could be ascertained to-day
from reliable sources, the scene at Wednes-
days meeting was rather startling. The
subject under discussion was the passing of
the regular quarterly dividend of the Mis-
souri, Pacific Gould was urging upon his CO.
directors the advisabilityof passing the diviss
dend. claiming that if it was paid it would
add 100000 20 the already cumbersome
floating debt of the property. Russell Sage
approved Gould's idea and said that $780,,
600 could be subscribed by the directors and
that would better the stock on the market.
Gould forced his point and rose 10 make Il
speech. He stood near long table in the
middle Of the room and steadied himself
with one hand. He had hardly begun his
remarks. when he faltered and pressed his
hand to his head He then fell forward on
the table.
Howard Gould. Gould's third son, said
to-day: My father is as well as ever. The
stories about the directors meeting
this morning he expected to be at
MS Office to-day. if the weather was
not too hot. As it promises to be rainy
day it is likely that my father will not come
to business. There is no pressing need for
his presence to-day" a few minutes later
Edwin Gould came in and said Father is
all right He is as well to-day rs he has
been at any time during the summer. The
report about his alleged attack Of mysteries
at the meeting is untrue" Gould drove
out at Irvington this morning.
