The trailing dresses now fashionable
have engaged the attsntion of the supreme
sanitary board of Vienna. The district
police commissioners were asked officially
whether dresses sweeping in the mud are
injurious to the public health; and whether,
if forbidden, the prohibition could be en-
forced. The replies differed. One official
suggested special tax on trailing dresses,
but he confessed that it would be difficult
to collect.

To Limit Cotton Production,

The low price of cotton is
causing great dissatisfaction
among the planters of South
Carolina, and they are talking
about limiting the production
by a decrease of acreage, in
plowing up one-fourth of the
present crop, and by various
other devices. The Farmers
Alliance, of Malboro county in
that state has adopted the fol-
lowing resolutions:
That we pledge ourselves to
plant only ten acres of cotton
to the horse in 1892; provided
we can get the cooperation of
all the cotton states. so as to
decrease the production of cot
ton, and so obtain the due re-
ward for our labor.
Second, That We request the
state alliance to call for a con-
vention of the cotton growers
of the south, irrespective of
class or color, to meet not later
than December lst next, to con-
slider the same.

to be desired, is run between
New York and Washington in
each direction in exactly five
hours, which is not only the
fastest time ever made between
the two cities but is the fastest
train in America, and the splen-
did road bed of the route per-
mits the speed with perfect
safety. One can realize what
a fast train this is when it is
considered that the distance
from Jersey City to Washington
is almost exactly the same as
from Boston to New York, where
as six hours is the fastest time
ever made between the latter
cities. The Royal Blue Lines
train from Jersey City to Wash
ington performs the journey
in four hours and forty. eight
minutes. Notwithstanding the
superior equipment and train
service of this line, no extra
fares are charged on any of it's
trains. Palatial day coaches
accompany all it's trains, open
to the public at the regular,
fare, and only the usual charges
are made for Accommodations in
sleeping and parlor cars. .4. l..
There are six tRoyal Blue
Line" trains each way, daily,
between New York and Wash
ington. All of them are COM
posed exclusively of vestibuled
cars, protected by Pullman's
antl-telescoping device, heated
by steam and lighted by the
Pintsch gas system.
We heartily recommend this
route to all our readers and adj
wise them to take it and none
other, for it is not only the best
as regards speed, luxury and
equipment, but it exacts no
extra charge ON any of its trains.

What does q young girl know Of life

rather, remarks correspondent of the
Mlanta Constitution, take an innocent
young creature through the worst part
of New York City at midnight than put
bad books into her white hands. There

There is so much in a girls commenc-

is often the making or marring of her
whole future life.
There are women to-day forty years
old still living in the pernicious books
they read. They started with bad books
in their teens. They followed bad hero
ines, and may, according to their now
diseased minds, find themselves an inn

silly, unnatural creatures whom every
body ridicules and nobody respects. l

be enchanting.

German Conscripts.

Military conscription is being enforced
in Germany with more than usual strin-
gency, and the Socialist leaders are de-
nouncing the system. A Cologne cor
respondent of the London News says it
is pitiful spectacle to see the squads of
German conscripts at the various sta
tions awaiting enforced transportation
from home and friends. They look
more like convicts on the way to jail
than recruits for the army of the EN-
pire, and as they are surrounded by
throngs of weeping and wailing rela-
tives the cruelty of the system forces
itself on the mind of the observer. Just
now these conscripts are being driven to
the military depots in droves from all
parts OF Germany, and sadness reigns in
every village and hamlet.

been there since the recollection of the

they are Indian signs, relics of by-gone

Colonel R. G. Ingersoll is one of the
lawyers to whom his profession yields a
fortune every year. A quarter of mill

his receipts, and he is one of the few
men who shine either as pleader or
counselor. He has accumulated great
wealth, which, ,Isays the Chicago Journal,

He interrupted his new client. "How,"
