The government Of Trinidad has passed
an ordinance for the determination of
parasol ants, so far as its power extends.
The pest has become unbearable. In
fact, from the nature of things wherever
this ant is found a growing civilization
must wage war to the death with it, for
the creature strips trees of their leaves,
which itneatly trims to the size and shape
Of q %threepenny bit and carries to the
nest. An army Of Ecodoma cephalotes
at work is one of the strangest sights in
tropical America. The column may be
followed for n mile, 3 or 4 inches in
width, @ serried mass Of ants, each carry.
ing aloft upright as a flag its green disk.
They viii strip a large tree Of which
they fancy the leaves in "a hours.-KeW

"Man IN CS wants some parlor matches.
He says these eight day sticks are n con-
founded nuisance" the bellboy said to
the clerk in one Of the hotels yesterday.
''Tell him he'll have TO get along with
the old style match" answered the
clerk. "The insurance companies don't
allow parlor matches in the rooms.
Eyes, that's a fact" he continued in
answer to a surprised questioner. I'm
surance policies Of nearly all companies
prohibit the keeping and use Of parlor
matches in any part of a hotel, but they
are generally kept in the offices because
they are in greater favor and more con-
venient than the sulphur match, and the
requirements Of the policy is to that ex-
tent overlooked by both it's holders and
the issuing company. There isn't much
chance for an accidental ignition Of q
parlor match to do much harm in a hotel
Office, but they are dangerous things in
rooms where carpets or curtains or stray
paper are liable to catch fire from them.
''They are not only more easily lighted
by accident, such as stepping upon them,
but, as isnot generally known. they often
break out in flame from spontaneous
combustion. You may judge how easily
this is liable to happen by holding a
bunch of them in the dark and watching
the fame that continually arises from
them. The sulphur match Is not so dan
gerous in any of these particulars"

Longest Track LAYING This Year.

The longest stretch of track laying
done thus far this year has just been
completed by the Minneapolis, st. Paul
and Sault Ste. Marie company in the
extension gifts line from Cathay, N. D., to
Sterling, on the international boundary,
a distance of 1924 miles, all ironed lice
last spring. At the boundary line con.
nection is made with n branch of tho
Canadian Pacific, now building from a
point west Of Regina, about 100 miles
long, which will be completed in Sep.
TENDER, thus making the 500 line an i'm.
portant part of a new route from st.
Paul and Minneapolis to the Pacific
coast. and inaugurating a competing
line which may greatly disturb existing
conditions. No work of railway build
ing in 1898 is likely to be more far
reaching in its effects than that which
virtually extends the Canadian Pacific
system to the Mississippi river.-Rail-
way Age.
