TENDERS FOR STREETCARS
A Baltimore Device Which 1t Is
Claimed Meets the Re-
quirements.
How the Blackstone Invention Is
Operated to Prevent Injury to
the UnWary.

Baltimore has adopted fender for its
street railroad cars which seems to have
proved a success as a life-saver. An ordi-
nance was passed imposing a fine of SIS for
every car without fender, and this stimu-
lated the inventive ingenuity of the COM
pany. Seventy tenders were submitted,

Heat of the Arctic.

To hear OF suffering from heat in the
Arctic regions sounds incredible to those
who have never been there. Lieutenant
Glider relates the experience of his party
from this cause while one summer in King
Williams Land, and declares that probably
nowhere on earth is the traveller more an
noyed by acute sunbrn than in the frigid
zone. The heat of ordinary exercise COM
pels him to throw back the hook of his fur
coat, and by thus exposing the head not
only his entire face becomes blistered, but
especially-if he is fashionable enough to
wear his hair thin on the top of his head
his entire scalp is affected about as severely
as if bucket of scalding water had been
poured upon him.
At later period Lieutenant Schwatka' s
entire party, while upon a sledge Journey
from Marble Island to Camp DAILY. were so
severely burned that not only their faces
but their entire heads were swollen to
nearly twice their size. And a fine looking
party they were. Some had faces SO
swollen that their eyes were completely
closed on awakening from sleep. When
one was fortunate enough to be able to see
the others he could not refrain from laugh
ing. All dignity was lost. Even the
august commander OF the party was a
laughing stock, and, though he knew why
they laughed at each other, he could not
understand why he should excite such
mirth. Pretty soon he saw his face in a
mirror and found that when he tried to
smile his lips were so thoroughly swollen
that the effect was anything but happy.
The contortion expressed sentiment, but
hardly that of pleasure. He could readily
have been taken for a grimacing idiot or a
malicious lunatic, according to the prefer
ence of the beholder.-Cassells Magazine.

CAPTAIN WALLER FINED.
Result of His Battery Upon Armorer e
G. Owens.


g. Owens.
Captain elect Waller of the First Troop
OF Cavalry appeared in Judge Campbell s
court yesterday for sentence. On Tuesday
he was convicted on the evidence of Cor
poral G. A. Helmore, H. Thompson and
Frank Burress OF battery upon II. G..
Owens, armorer, at the armory on April Is.
The Judge, in passing sentence, said /:
81 have given this case considerable care
ana study, and after reviewing the testi-
mony of the prosecution find that bat
terry has been clearly proven against the
defendant, but believing no great harm
had been personally done the plaintiff I
will not impose very severe sentence. No
one had any right to use force, and were he
a captain in the regular service he would
lay himself liable to criminal prosecution
by laying violent hands on his men. Cap.
tain Waller could easily have enforced dis
cipline by other means without resorting
to violence The defendant evidently,
from his conduct in court, was of very
excitable disposition. l think Justice viii
be served by imposing fine of $40 or ten
DAYS in the County Jail"
Owens will now institute a civil suit
against Captain Waller for $500 damages

The prohibition sentiment is un-
doubtedlY gaming ground-the his
tory of the movement has been
somewhat like the ebb and flow of
the tide. It's waves have advanced
and retreated but each successive
wave has risen higher and has come
with stronger force than the pre-
cedlng one and we have no fear
that the time is coming when some
wave rising hider than the last
shall sweep away and cover all that
opposes. Meanwhile let us be care
tul to hold every foot OF ground that
is gained.
A most observable fact in the
Temperance reform has been its
constantly widening range. 1t
started in individual action, but
passed almost Immediately into var
louS kinds OF association for mutual
aid From a guarded use of intoxi-
cants, passed by the exigencies of
the case. it moved forward to their
absolute rejection. In similar
way it was forced beyond individual
abstinence into civic prohibition.
From prohibition in towns and
counties it advanced to constitu-
tional prohibition in the State, and
from this it is advancing to prohibi-
ton by the general government,
and never will the movement stop
until prohibition is international.
Each step of extension makes the
previous position more secure and
the next one more possible.
The advancing sentiment of pro-
hibition is noticeable in nothing
more than in the changed altitude
of churches and ministers of the
gospel toward the question of total
abstinence.
A few days ago it was not an un-
common thing for the Office of sup
plying the wants of the thirty
citizens, to be committed to the
deacon or some other officer of the
church, who could get a certificate
for good moral character" A
generous hospitality was exercised
in every home especially toward the
minister, When he went around
to make his parochiel visit, the peo-
pie We'd with each other in Offering
him the best they had On the
side-board of the rich there was
brandy and Jamaica rum, and when
his visit was expected something
warm would be in readiness if it
were cold, or something cold if it
were warm; while the humblest |
abode, though it might lack the re-
linemcnt Of Cognac and jamaica
and loaf sugar and spice, yet set
before him the black bottle with
brown sugar as carefully as though
the relreshment had been more
pretentious or esthetc, and the
good man, not willing to hurt the
feelings Of his humblest entertainer,
would partake Of the bottle as
heartily as Of the former. After
the first visit or two there was
liable to be produced 4 thickness of
tongue and incoherence of speech
which necessitated the good mans
sitting for a while on the horse
block or taking turn along the
road for 4 quarter of an hour or
so before making the next visit,
But all this is changed now and
the church and the clergy are
organized as the leading and UNI
compromising foe of the saloon,

Many Fire Losses.
From Fridays Daily.

The prair.e fire which has been burn
ing southeast of the city since Saturday
Is still in progress and besides the loss
of pasturage to farmers has done other
damage of considerable extent-how
much will not be known for some days
to come. Henry Tabbert is reported to
have lost his granary and contents in
Guiding his seed wheat; Archie Ferguson
his barn and Geo. Elliott his barn and
contents. Elmer Reeves had close call
from having all his property swept
away, but saved 1t by hard work. Sam
Williams lost all his hay and now that
the prairie is burned off has no pastur-
age.
At about p. m. yesterday fire broke
out in the roof of G. H. French s farm
house-supposedly from an overheated
stovepipe-and the building burned to
the ground. Most, if not all, of the
household goods we're saved. Forum
ately the wind was blowing away from
the stables, else they would have burned
also.
The entire region east of the river,
from Spiritwood to Ypsilanti and south
east for many miles, is blackened waste
except where fields of plowine may
have offered barrier to the flames.
Those who lost nothing more than pas
turage are considering themselves for
tunate. The high wind blew the smoke,
fire and cinders in clouds, so that it was
difficult to see more than few rods.

The Cactus Loan

Senator Casey says that in spite OF all
efforts to make the provisions OF the law
known the impression seems to prevail
that the $4,000 appropriation for the
determination of the cactus which has
been approved by the governor, is
direct sum to be paid from the state
treasury with no provisions for its re-
turn. The provisions OF the law have
been repeatedly reported which show
that this is not the case. Among other
requirements the law compels levy of
mill to be made this summer on all
taxable property, and from the result OF
this compulsory taxation it is expected
that at least $4,000 will be raised to pay
for the destruction of the weed. The
state assistance is merely loan. Some
money may be obtained from the tax this
fall, but next year the state will be fully
reimbursed for the outlay, which Is to be
spent under the direction OF the COVER
nor and two persons appointed fer the
purpose, making the governor practi-
cally responsible for tho proper expendl-
ture of the fund.
II is believed that some plan for dis-
tributing printed copies of the bill
among land owners and others interested
ought to be followed IN order to give
every farmer full knowledge OF the
efforts being made to stop the spread
OF the weed. The law IS not local or
special in character, but applies to parts
OF the state where there is no cactus now,
as we'll as to parts where the land has
been taken by it. This feature was gen.
orally approved by members of the legls-
lsture who recognized the justice OF the
entire state contributing to the expense
of the work.

speakers was Major Edwards who re-
ferred to bis vote against re-submlsslon

mated for the legislature without sollci-
tation. by a republican convention,

to maintain the platform declarations. !"

to discuss means OF raising money to
