New-York and its suburbs experienced a
miniature tornado on Saturday evening. but
no damage of great importance was caused.
This violent windstorm will enable us to APP
preciate more keenly the terrible work which
has been done in Iowa. where many lives were
lost and nearly million dollars worth of
damage was inflicted. While Iowa has SUI
fsred so severely from disastrous winds, Wis
consin has been the victim of rains OF almost
unprecedented violence. in one place in that
State the phenomenal record OF five inches OF
rain in the space of eight hours was made.

Another thrilling tale of the sea is told this
morning. A good match it is for the story
lately published of the Servia's running down
a sailing vessel and holding it suspended on
her prov long enough tc save all hands on
board. The yacht Queen Nab is the hero on
rather, the heroine, of the latest hairbreadth
'scape on the great deep. According to the
yerscous narrative of the men on board the
little vessel met hurricane when near the
"vexed BermoOthes" and was completely cap
sized; but after a few minutes the hurricane
took new tack and thereupon the yacht was
promptly restored to her rightful position.
Only one life was lost in consequence of this
unique manoeuvre. The Queen Nab ma. not
win any prizes, but she has distinction all her

fiscal years of the companies was
III, ,766 miles of main line track.
The liabilities Of these companies
were 11,089 million dollars and
the assets II, 482 millions. Full
statistic of operation were
received from companies op-
Grating 170,607 miles, and on
these following figures are based.
The revenue train mileage, exclu-
sive of elevated railroads, was 865
millions; the passenger mileage,
1857 millions; the freight ton
mileage, 84,448 millions. The to-
tai traffic earnings were 1905
millions of dollars, operating
expenses 847 millions, net earn
ings 359 millions, other receipts
115 millions, and total available
revenue 473 millions. The pay
ment in interest amounted to over
339 million dollars, and in divi-
vends to little over SO millions.
The ton mile rate for the year was
967 cent, which is somewhat better
than the two preceding years, and
nearly as good as the year of 1889.
The freight receipts per mile of
railroad were the best since 1883,
having been $4,787. The tons of
freight hauled per mile of railroad
were 1892, the highest figure ever
recorded. The tons of freight per
freight train mile 161 .21-less
than either of the two preceding
years, but greater than in any
other year. The average haul per
ton was 1927 miles. The average
passenger fare was 2,149 cents per
mile, being the lowest ever record
ed. The receipts per mile of rail
road were $1,721 from passenger
fares, which is less than most of
the preceding ten years. The pas
senger carried per mile Of railroad
were 1857 and the average train
load 1929. The interest paid on
bonds and debt amounted to 4.38
per cent; the dividends on stock
1877 per cent, and the total pay
ments of interest and dividends to
3.01. The locomotive equipment
at the end of 1892 is reported as
5,754; the passenger service cars
at 34,2 ,221, and the freight cars H.
178,767. The miles of steel track
were reported as 182,848, being an
increase of about 5000 miles, and
the miles of iron rails were repor-
ted as 38,54t, a decrease of IT,
100.

To Cure Snake Bite.

There is no excuse for fishing
parties taking along the regulation
snake bite "antidote," as the fol-
lowing will show: A Riverside, Cali
fornia, doctor recently successfully
treated a rattle snake bite without
the aid of intoxicants. The treat
ment was: The hand and arm was
thoroughly cleansed in hot medi-
Gated wash, and the places where
the fangs entered were lanced SO
that the poison blood might escape.
1t was again washed clean, and
334 per cent oily solution of cam
phorated picnic acid was injected
into some 25 places in the hand
and arm. The only remaining
treatment was to keep the parts
perfectly clean. The doctor says
that anyone bitten by a rattler
should Immediately suck the wound
and spit out the blood, then tie a
handkerchief tightly above the
wound and open it with clean pen
knife to let out the blood. While
this is being done not moment
should be lost in getting q surgeon.
The snake may also be killed while
you wait.
It seems too bad to deprive the
boys of their only excuse for taking
the aforesaid "antidote" along on
their picnic excursions, but the
truth must be told though the
heavens fall.

Paris JaiIs.

According to Pastor Rommel,
who is attached by his ministra-
trations to the prisons of Paris, a
sojourn in one of them is a tanta-
mount to reduction of 20 years of
ones life. The penalty of i'm
prisonment costs the life of many
of the prisoners and shortens the
lives ofall. All conditions ofhealth
are neglected. Food and ventila-
ton are bad. The lookup Sainte
Pelagie, to which journalists are
sent, and the Grande Rouquette
are nests of malafcent microbes.
To shut out the sun and air was
the task the architect had to ac-
complish. Cholera, smallpox, ty-
phus and other contagious mala-
dies often arise as if spontaneous
ly in these jails and spread to the
rest of the city.

Grateful to his Renefactor.

Down in South Minneapolis
there is a barber named Hans. The
other day he found himself VIC
tim of financial depression and
seemed on the eve of crisis. He
was able, however, to borrow two
dollars from his friend, the shoe.
maker, and with this financial as
sistance he tided over his difficult
ties. His gratitude to his friend
the shoemaker, knew no bounds,
and he was scarce able to find words
in which to express his obligation.
"Johan" he cried, "0h, mein Johan,
