ASHLAND IN DARKNESS.
Trouble Between the City and
Electric Light Company.

ASHLAND, Wis, March lin pur-
suance with the order of the city coun-
Gil, the electric lights were all turned
off tonight in the city. The Lighting
d Street Railway company officers
held meeting this afternoon and de-
cided to cut off the electric lights as
ordered by the council. The company
does not concede the right of the coun-
Gil to discontinue their use, claiming
the franchise is a contract with the
city for both gas and electric service,
still, as the company claims the city
has not paid dollar in two years, it
was thought best to discontinue the
lights, and aid the council. The city
is in a state of total darkness tonight
and grave consequences are feared as
a result of the cratic measure.

MAY BOYCOTT THE TRUST.
Distributors Threaten RetaIia-
ton on DistiIIers.

CINCINNATI, O., March 1.-Recaiv-
ers McNulta and Lawrence of the
whisky trust, arrived from Chicago
this morning, and were sworn in by
Judge Taft as receivers for this dis
trict. Afterward they met the whole
sale whisky dealers from all parts of
the country in conference. The qLes-
tons of an assessment of 81 per share
and of reorganization came up, and
were discussed. The ruling of the re-
ceivers to sell direct to dealers, in
stead of to distributors, thereby max
ing the extra profit, led to a threat
from the distributors to go to distillers
outside the trust. Some distributors
expect a general bolt from the trust in
this district, but most of them say the
receivers will make terms.

If you knew
MINERAL WOOL,
The Process by Which the Useful Silicate
Cotton Is Produced.

Cotton Is Produced.
OF those who know what mineral
W is, or ~silicato cotton, as it is some
TIL called, probably only q small
number are familiar with the simple
process by which it is made. The wool
Itself, serving a variety of useful pu.-
poses, as i n~onconducting covering
against heat and cold alike, for steam
pipes and cold storage room walls, as IL
sound "~deadener" in floors of buildings
and az a means Of tireproofing, among
many others, Il, as its name implies, a
soft and woolly substance, consisting Of
a mass OF very fine mineral fibers inter-
lacIns Il another i'll every direction,
and thus forming an endless number of
minute air cells.
The wool appears on the market in a
variety OF colors, principally white, but
often yellow or gray and occasionally
quite dark and is made by converting
sc0rial and certain rocks while III a
molten state into d fibrous condition by
asteam blast directed against the LIQUID
material. Blast furnace Stag forms the
raw material for one variety of the wool
and sandstone for another, yielding re-
spectlyely Stag wool and rock wool, the
latter being preferable for pipe covering
because Of the absence from it Of sui
phur, which, with moisture present, be-
comes an active corroding agent.
p furnace Stag or the rock, as the
case may be, is melted in a large .
la, and as it triekles out at the tap hole
III a somewhat sluggish stream it meets
a high pressure steam jet which atom
lies the woolen mineral, if it may be SO
termed, blowing it in fleecy clouds into
the storage room provided for it. Soft
ana downy, the stuff settles wherever a
resting place affords itself, the heavier
and easier wool coming down first, while
the lighter portions are blown farther
along by the force of the steam and SET
tie i'll the more distant parts of the
room, the material thus naturally grad
ing itself into varieties Of different
quality.
A thousand pounds of wool per hour
are turned out by one of the cupolas,
and after the storage room has been
blown full the tlocculent mass is pushed
INTO bags, ready for the market. The
whole process affords an admirable and
interesting illustration Of the utilization
OF all utterly waste product. -Cassier's

Rise of the Medical Profession.
During the medieval times tho m

During the MEDIEVAL times tho mon
aster1es, serving as centers of instruc-
tlon, gave some embodiment to the med
lea profession, like that which our col
leges give. In Italy there later arose in
situations for educating physicians, as
tho medical school Of Salerno in 1I40.
In France before the end of the thir-
teenth century the surgeons had become
Incorporated into u distinct COLLEGE, fol
lowing III this way tho incorporated
medical faculty, and While thus inte-
grating themselves they excluded from
their class the BARRIERS, who. forbidden
to perform operations, were allowed
only to dress wounds, etc. In our own
country there have been successive con-
solicitations.
The barber surgeons Of London were
incorporated by Edward ", and in the
fifteenth century the College of Ply
flcians was founded and "received O y
er to grant licenses to practice medicine
"a power which had previously been
confined to tho bishops Progress in
definlteness of Indignation was shown
when in Charles rs time persons were
forbidden toexercise surgery il London,
and within seven miles, until they had
been examined by the company Of bar
hers ard surgeons, and also when, by
the eighteenth Of George II. excluding
the BARRIERS, the Royal College Of Sur
geons was formed. At the same time
there V grown UP medical schools in
various places which prepare students
for examination by these Incorporated
medical bodies, further inteeratious
being implied. Hospitals, too, scattered
throughout the kingdom. have become
places OF clinical instruction., some unit
ed to colleges and some not. Another
species Of Indignation has been achieved
by medical journals, weekly and quar-
terly, which serve to bring into com
munication educational institutions, in
corporated bodies and the whole profes-
s1on.-Herbert Spencer in Popular Sci
