GALLANTRY FORBIDDEN.

All eyes of passenger brakemen are
now turned on the Baltimore & Ohio
to see the result of the cruel order
forbidding trainmen from assisting
ladies on or off the cars. The explain
alton that the good old way was abol-
ished because delicate dresses were
sometimes sOiled by hands that had
just been toying with brake irons and
axle boxes is not generally accepted
as adequate, and there is a feeling
that the superintendent wanted to sup
press a little harmless gallantry. A
Wheeling dispatch says that since the
order went into effect sit is very am
musing to watch some of the passen-
gers getting on and off the cars. The
brakesman stands by the steps and
seem to enjoy the situation
very much. At Benwood juno
ton many passengers riding on
the through train have to change
cars, and the ladies find it
very unhandy in making the change.
There is no help for them, however,
and they may as we'll get used to it
first as last. Trainmen report that
they are able to make better time
since the order was issued, and in
that case the company is greatly ben

BACTERIA IN DEEP WELLS.

1t has been a widespread popular
opinion that the purity of water OBJ
tanned from deep wells, especially
from deep wells of the kind known as
driven wells, might be depended
upon. OF late, however, there has
arisen a doubt of the accuracy of this
belief, and scientific investigation has
now shown it to be erroneous. EX-
animation of water from a consider
able number of springs and deep
wells by the bacteriOlOgist of the
Massachusetts state board of health
has shown that bacteria are present
in water taken not only from springs
and open wells, but from carefully
guarded wells of quite extraordinary
depth. The result of the investiga-
lions prove that Sternberg, Abbott
and other high authorities We're in err
rOr in believing waters from deep
sources to be free from bacteria.
Franklin, in his Micro Organisms in
Water" evidently had doubts, but his
Investigations led him to believe that
such waters, although perhaps not
wholly free from heterogeneous,
possessed a high degree of bacterial
purity. 1t is difficult (says the re-
port of the board to find deep wells
in uninhabited regions. 1t is plain,
however, that water absolutely free
from bacteria is not ordinarily obtain
ed from even deep wells, and that
many deep wells contain as numerous
bacteria as are found in many sur
face waterS.-EX.

PERnOUs GRADE CROSSING.

In a case in the Supreme court of
the United States for injuries receiv-
ed at a crossing there was evidence
that plaintiff, who was driving slowly
and with a safe horse stopped at
a point more than 600 feet from the
crossing from which n train could
be seen to look or listen as she
could neither see nor hear any thing
drove slowly up a hill between
there and the crossing to a point
at the top between 40 and 50 yards
from the track where she again
stopped and listened but hearing moth
ing she then drove slowly down the
hill toward the crossing, both she and
her companion listening all the time
without talking; that they heard moth
ing and that a they got to the cut
in which the train ran, and when the
horse had his feet on the nearest
rail, the train which was several min
utes behind time, came round the
curve and struck them. 1t appeared
that, between the point at which
plaintiff first stopped and the crossing
there was no point from which she
could see the train and that the train
did not whistle as required by law.
The court rules that the conduct of
plaintiff was not, as a matter of law,
such as to defeat recovery. st.

announcement that it has practically
been decided that neither Gov. Nc
Kinley nor Mr.. Hobart would make
any stumping tours during the cam
paign. There wouldn't be the slight
est improperly in either of these gen.
tlemen or both making speeches dur
ing the campaign, but somehow most
people cannot get rid of the idea that
it is lowering of the dignity which
should naturally belong to the candi-
dates for the high offices of president
and vice-president for gentlemen who
are nominated for those positions, to
take the stump for themselves. The
Republican party has plenty of ora
tors to do the talking, and in NOvem-
Der it will have plenty of voters to
elect Mckinley and Hobart, and there
is no occasion for their going on the
stump.
There is at least one Louisiana
Democrat in Washington who doubts
the ability of the Democrats to carry
that state this year. He is Mr.. III.
DugaS, and he says: Louisiana is
by no means certain to 90 Democratic
this year, although the nomination of
the free silver candidate will undOubt-
edly strengthen the party in the state.
A great many of our people are par
tial to Mckinley on account of his
protection policy. They want prOtec-
ton for their sugar, and the Demo-
cratic free trade program is anything
but popular among them. Though
lifelong Democrat, would be glad to
see the Republicans carry the state
and the country this year"

Have you ever noticed that almost
without exception, thin, pale, dispep-

that such foods are bad for them.

the earth says that 32,214,0OO die an
nually; that is an average OF 9S,S40

The annual number of births on the

AN IRISH SCENE.

The world was white with snow as we
arrived at the little station of Bird Hill,
on the eastern shore of the Shannon.
This station is pretty to look at. 1t
seems like a forest clearing amidst
thick plantations, which is just open
out enough to give vistas of soft green
pastures and suggestions of distant
hills. But, pretty as it is, Bird Hill is ap.
to drive travellers to despair. For when
once a train gets into this station, 1t
seems to have the greatest difficulty in
ever leaving it. The engine seems to
exert all it's energies in running to and
fro. and appearing to the astonished
traveller at unexpected ends and sides
of the platforms. This morning the sun
was just shining cut through the early
mist as we arrived at the station. The
snow sparkled on the ground, and the
country roads, overarched by snow
encrusted branches, seemed like scenes
in fairyland. We had time to contem-
plate these scenes with closer study than
we cared for before the train arrived
from Limerick and before 1t made up
its mind to leave the banks Of the Shan

long enough for them, and In course Ct

turning to it. We travelled slowly up.

where occasionally a tall and half

level Of country: the hills were left be-
hind, gray in the distance, and there
were wide stretches of undulating pas
lures and strips of plantations here and
there, and many streams and pools and
sheets Of shallow water. In milder
weather the coloring Of this high in

the purple and brown of the bogs. The
pastures into which the moors gradual

the haze Of the low, wide horizon on
every side are blue mountains, lit up
here and there with CLEANS Of goli.
These distant hills give almost always
a charm to Irish scenery. Like the i'm

gleam of humor seldom long absent

them why we are thus robbed we are

the explanation we can get. And then,
when we appeal to our people to remove
this influence from the treasury OF our
