MOST DEADLY OCCUPATION.

We are told that 1.-The deadliest oc
cupation for men or horses is hauling
in the borax fields of Death Valley of
the great American desert. The ther-
mometer often registers 140 deg. of
heat, unrelieved by even a breath of
air. The desert team under these cir
cumstances is the longest in the world,
and the percentage of deaths among
the horses is greater than among do
nestle animals used in any other call
ing. Forty to sixty horses are often
hitched to one of the numbering We
hicles in which the borax is dragged
across the sun-baked alkali plains. The
average life of even the sturdiest horse
used in this work is six months. A
man, though protected by the wagon
awnings from the suns rays, cannot
go an hour without danger of death.
When a team breaks down and the
water supply becomes depleted the men
ride on at top speed for the nearest
source of supply, and often when they
return they find that the remaining
horses, made mad from thirst, have
broken from the harness and dashed
off. only to find death in the desert"

BEET SUGAR.

The beet sugar industry in California
will receive a decided impetus if the
project of increasing the tariff on raw
sugar is carried out, unless the bust
ness of growing sugar cane on the Ha-
waiian Islands is unduly stimulated by
the decided advantages which the plan
ters will enjoy under the reciprocity
treaty. 1t is not impossible that con-
ditions may arise, if the reciprocity
treaty is kept alive, which would make
beet sugar production in this State nre-
carious. The islands now produce an
amount of sugar vastly in excess of the
requirements of the Pacific Coast and
it would be no difficult matter to con
troll the output and use it in such a
fashion that the beet sugar growers
or California might find il hard m
compete Apprehensions of this kind
may be groundless, but the California
delegation in Congress should not fail

BICYCLE FIRE ENGINE.

Paris has a fire engine propelled by
cycling firemen. The machine has the
appearance Of two tandem wheels cou-
pied with a single steering post.
Hanging between the two bicycle
frames are the hose and reel and a
rotary pump. The whole outfit weighs
less than 40 pounds, and four expert
enced wheelmen can push this along
faster than any other engine ever
went. The foot power of the four men
propels the machine to the scene of
action. and when once there the same
power pumps the water.
After the arrival at the scene each
man is assigned to some part of the
duty of making the change. One raises
the back Of the machine on a leg,
allowing the rear wheels to revolve

freely. He also throws the pump into
working order, and the others have
unreeled the hose and made the coup
ling connection. Then, jumping into
the saddles again, the energies of the
men are directed to pumping. About
$500 gallons of water per hour can be
thrown between rs and 100 feet in the
air.
The rapidity with which this ma
chine can be propelled to fire and
put into action is it's great advantage
In two or three minutes after it's ar

made and the machine is putting a

Observations on the Decline of Street Car
Manners In the South.


Manners In the South.
1t cannot be concealed that there is a
growing tendency, even III the south,
where masculine gallantry has held out
longest, ON the part of men to let wom-
en- in the street cars shift for themselves.
It has not come to that point yet, but
the movement is growing i'll that direc-
ton.
1t is fact that men are rapidly fail
ing i'll the courtesy which was once uni
formly shown to women, and the rea-
son, to a large extent, is that men are
meeting women as competitors in all
fields of labor, and this fact vastly
changes the social relations between the
sexes. Women are claiming all sorts of
equality with men, moral, political
and physical, and are declaring more
and more their independence. The effect
on the next generation will be very
marked and peculiar The men and wo-

old ideas and training, and that is the
reason they talk about street car man.
ners and social ethics in their relations
to the sexes. but in the year 1880, or
the period of one generation from the
present time, people will no longer con-
Germ themselves about such matters.
The greater the number of women at
work in proportion to the men the more
stringent the competition, and it can
easily be seen that, according to the fig
ures shown. the day might come when
there would be no street car manners,
but every individual would look out
for himself or herself, as the case may
be. But even should chivalry he extin-
guished from human manners there
will always remain the Christian grace
of charity, so in the time to come able
bodied young men andas women who
have seats in the cars will rise to give
their places to old men and women and
to others who may be sick or disabled.

Take Care of Yourself.

Think deliberately of the house you
live in-your body Make up your
mind firmly not to abuse it. Eat moth
ing that will hurt it. Wear nothing
that distorts or pains it. Do not over
load it with victuals or drink or work
Give yourself regular and abundant
sleep. Keep your body warmly clad
Do not take cold; guard yourself against
it. If you feel the first symptoms, give
yourself heroic treatment. Get into a
fine glow of heat by exercise. This is
the only body you will have in this
world. Study deeply and diligently the
structure of it, the laws that govern it,
the pains and penalty that will surely
follow violation of every law of life
and health. Medical Reporter

order. Bold in conception, self reliant,
demonstrating by his acts that much
danger makes great hearts most reso-
lutte, fertile i'll resources, combining
the restlessness Of Hotspur with the
patiepce of Fabius, it is no wonder
that he should have been looked upon
as the wizard of the battlefield. Gener-

ity of Hannibal, the dash of Murat,
the courage of a Ney, the magnetism of

of individual heroism, and his uncon-

all the confidence of. Caesars Tenth le-
gion. Wherever blows fell thickest
there was his crest. Despite the valor
of the defense opposing ranks went
down before the fierceness of his onsets,
never to rise again, and he would not
pause till the folds of his banner waved
above the strongholds he had wrested
from the foe. Brave Sheridan! can
almost see him now, his silent clay
again quickened into life, once more
riding Rienzi through fire of hell,
leaping opposing earthworks at single
bound, and leaving nothing of those

AS Commonly Used as Ever-Some Changes
In Customs.
The sleighbells used in this country
are made here, most of them in Con-
necticut, and many sleighbells of
American manufacture are exported to
Germany and to Russia Sleighbells
are as commonly used as ever whenever
there is snow enough to make good
Eleighing They may not be heard so
much as formerly here in the city,
where the snow is cleared away from
many streets and wheels cut up what is
left, but up the state and elsewhere the
sleighbells jingle in winter just as mer-
rily as ever.
There have been some changes in
sleighbell customs. Shaft bells and
bells fixed on the saddle of the harness
have to some extent taken the place of
the old time string of bells ON straps,
but the strings of bells are still the
more commonly used Probably third
of the bell outfits sold nowadays are of
| the kind that fasten to shafts or the
saddle of the harness and two-thirds
are strings of bells The bells exported
are i'll about the same proportions The
bells attached to shafts and harness are
| open mouthed and provided with
tongues Some shaft bells are made
with all three in set alike; oftener
they are made in three sizes, forming a
chime The three bells carried over the
saddle of the harness are set i'll an orna-
mental frame, which is supported by
the saddle
The sleighbells of the old, familiar
kind, round, with balls inside, are at
tached to straps, as they have always
been, to body straps encircling the
horses body, and to neck straps
Sleighbells are made of bell metal,
md they were never made with such
care with a view to their sound produc-
ing qualities, nor were they ever SO mu-
steal, as now The commoner kinds of
sleighbells are produced at very small
cost, and whole strings of bells are sold
ut prices that seem marvelously low.
Shaft bells of the commoner kinds are
cheaper yet, and that accounts in some
measure for the increased sales of shaft
bells
The question has often been asked,
and as often answered, How does the
ball get inside of the sleighbell? The
question is here again answered. Of
course the ball itself is first cast. 1t is
then placed inside the ball of sand that
is to form the core Of the mold in which
the sleighbell is to be cast. The mold
is of the form aud size Of the outside of
the sleighbell The core almost fills
the interior Of the mold, but not quite.
There is left all around, between it and
the mold, a. little space. Into this space
the molten metal is poured, and when
it hardens it is hollow globe of metal,
with the mold outside and the core in
side. When the sleighben is taken
from the mold, the sand of which the
core is composed, having been dried out
by the heat of the molten metal, can
easily be shaken out of the bell through
it's narrow mouth, but the ball which
has been placed in the sand before the
bell was cast is bigger than the mouth
of the bell that now surrounds it, and
SO it has to stay in.--New York Sun.

RAILROAD LITIGATION
Money Wanted on Twelve Millions of
Guaranteed Bonds


CINCINNATI, O., March 21-The
Farmers Loan & Trust company If
New York has sued the Baltimore and
Ohio Railway company and other hold
ers of the consolidated mortgage bonds
of the Baltimore and Ohio Southwest
ern company. The trust company, as
trustee OF the property conveyed to 1t
by the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern
company at the time Of its consolidation
under that name with the Ohio and
Mississippi Railway company, holds cer-
titled bonds amounting to sl2. 100 900 is
sued to take up the outstanding bonds
of the Ohio and Mississippi Railway
company a first lien on the property of
that company.
The B. & o. company guaranteed that
these bonds would be taken up by the
consolidation. but the B. G. o. company
went into the hands of receiver in Feb
ruary, 1896 and has been unable to make
its guarantee good so that the bonds of
the consolidated company by that rea-
son and because of the hard times, have
largely declined in market value. The
Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern COM
pany the mortgagor, has notified the
trust company that ii will not be able to
pay the Ohio and Mississippi bonds on
maturity as 1t contemplated, even by the
consolidated bonds. 1t proposed an
extension of the bonds for fifty years
at four per cent, and the plaintif asks
the advice of the court in the interest
of the holders of bonds, payment of
which will default unless such extern
sion is secured.
