TOLEDO, o., Aug. 21.-A special to
the Commercial from Lima, o., says:
A terrible smashup occurred here at
1880 last night at the junction of the
Lima Northern and Lake Erie IL West
ern railroads in the eastern portion of
the city. A Lake Erie freight crashed
into a Lima Northern passenger train,
carrying a large number of excursion
lists on their return from Toledo. the
train being a special excursion given
by a tea store of this city.
The Lake Erie engine was knocked
off the track and badly demolished and
two coaches of the Lima Northern
we're overturned, badly injuring a
large number of Lima's prominent peo-
pie.
Relief trains hurried in the injured,
all physicians being pressed into serv-
ice.
Neither train stopped at the june
ton, the Lake Erie engine dashing
into the second coach, OverturnIng it..
1t was filed with passengers. The en-
CINE was sent into 4 wheat field 90 feet
from the track.

The Assassin of Senior Canova del Castillo
Pays the Forfeit OF His Crime.
SAN SEBASTIAN. Aug. 20.-Michel
Angiolilli, who shot and killed Senior
Canovas del Castillo, the premier of
Spain, at the baths of Santa Aguera,
on Sunday, August s, was garroted at
II a. IN, according to the sentence of
the court-martial imposed upon him
on Monday last after his trial on the
previous Sunday, which sentence was
confirmed by the supreme council OF
war Thursday.
Angiolilli heard calmly the new hat
he was to be executed to-day, but he
appeared to be surprised at and Bit
terly complained of the frequent visits
of the priests, declaring they would
obtain nothing from him. He de-
clined to enter the chapel, saying he
was comfortable enough in his cell.
An executioner from Bourges per-
formed the garroting, just prior to
which a priest exhorted the anarchist
to repent, to which AngiolIlli re-
sponded: Since you cannot get mt
out of prison, leave me in peace. L
myself, will settle with God"

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

The trap rocks OF New Jersey and
tie dolerites of Staten Island are the
strongest stones in the United States,
their crushing resistance being $4,000
pounds to the cubic inch.
There are certain varieties of noun
tain plants which have a singular pro-
vision of nature for perpetuating their
species. The duration of summer in
those elevated regions is too short to
permit of the ripening of the seeds, and
the top buds fall off and take root as
would the seeds.
A chameleon from the Cape of Good
Hope was seen by Mr.. B!akiston to turn
white with fear, having been saved from
the attacks of a cat. The most eNtraor-
binary thing about this lizard is the
wonderful way in which the two eyes
work quite independently of each other
and "enabie it to survey comfortably
objects in quite opposite directions"
Some recently tabulated statistics
quoted in a scientific journal show the
relation between ones gas bill and the
choice of a decorating color. According
to these figures, the different vslues Of
fabrics and finishes in the way of light
needs are in the following proportions:
Black cloth, 100 candle power; dark
brown paper, ST; b,ue paper, ~; clean
yellow paint. 60; dirty wood, Sc; clean
wood, 60; cartridge paper 20.
Nature provides a series of hooks or
The front edge of the hind wings of in
sects, each hook fitting into a groove
on the hind edge of a front wing. The
front and hind wings are thus fastened
together on each side while the insect
is flying and are unfastened at other
times. This explains why you have oe-
~casionally noticed one of the species
flying, apparently with two wings, and
have seen him display four upon alight-
ing.
1t is asserted, though we do not
know the authority on which the asser-
ton is based, that our senses fall asleep
in a definite order. First the eyelids
close, and the sense of sight is lost,
then the sense of taste follows, and
after that smell, hearing and touch go
in the order named. Touch is said to be
the lightest sleeper of all, and the first
to be aroused. The reader who is curl
Gus about such things might test the ac-
curacy of these statements by expert
ments with his friends.

DANGER IN GETTING SHAVED.
BARRIERS Ought to Wash Their Hands

The proposition to make a more care
full man of the tonsorial artist, in 20
far as relates t. the transmission of dis
ease from his infected to his well
clients, is not 4 new one. The subject
has been written upon by several ear
nest men before Heinrich Berger, whose
"Hygiene in den Barbierstuben" re-
Gently appeared in Leipzig. No writer
has, however, seemed to go so deeply
into the question and lay down such
strict rules for the knight of the shaw

ncr of seizures, drunkenness and infec-
tious diseases.
Being free from these affections him

If BARRIERS could be prevailed upon to
follow them-but he does not sufficient
ly insist upon the necessity of boiling
to the point of sterilization his instru-
ments, towels, sponges and especially
his own hands.
There are many things besides the
eo-called BARRIERS itch which may be
transmitted in uncieanly shaving and
hairdressing, and of which the pubic
knows little or nothing. Favus is de-
cidedly on the increase in this coun-
try, and the number of children turned
away from the cities schools for this
cause since the inspection innovation
went into effect would greatly sur
prise those who think of favus as 3
European or foreign affection.
Attention has recently been called by
member of the New York Dermatolog-
zeal society to the danger of the ep-
Hating tweezers used in barber shops.
Ingrowing hairs and those attended by
%suppurative Inflammation, as in syco-
els, are extracted, and the next conner is
operated upon without adequate and
usually without any cleansing at all
of the instrument. Certain rules should
be adopted, if possible. by BARRIERS in
general to protect their patrons from
dangers which are more real than i'm
aginary. Above all, they should remem-
Der that scrupulous cleanliness of i'm

site, and the advice now being given to
surgeons to "boil their hands" applies
almost equally to them. At the least

DOLLAR WHEAT.
rhe Event Celebrated on the Minneapolis
d Exchange by a Band.

roduce Exchange by a Band.
MINNEAPoLIs, Aug. 2O.-Cash wheat
to-day sold at a dollar in Miuneapo-
lis, the first time since the summer of
1899. Predictions to-day were that
lays, in view of the advance of S Y
cents to-day. On the chamber of COM
merce floor. there was a shout of eX-
pectency from the pit as the price APP
preached a dollar. The market was
strong, opening three cents higher
than yesterdays close, supported by
strong foreign news and bullish north
west reports.
The price of cash wheat had Just
passed the dollar point, when from
down the hallway came the sound of
martial music. There was a rush for
the door, and the crowd broke into a
cheer as up the corridor came C. A.
Pillsbury at the head of a band of mu-
sic which was pounding out a dollar
memorial march. Mr.. Pillsbury led
his band through the doorway and
onto the floor, while hats went: up and
cheers proclaimed the entire satisfac-
ton with which a majority received
the news of dollar wheat.
The market whirled away and very
few attempted to keep up with it.
The advance was steady from the
opening. At one time owe six cents
gain from yesterday was realized and
September wheat closed in Minneapo-
lis So cents higher than yesterday,
and December closed a full six cents
higher.
September wheat opened 81 cents
higher this morning at SS11 cents,

against S54 cents yesterday. Deem
Der opened at SO cents and closed at 80

To Use Petroleum for Fuel for Torpedo
Boats.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The secre-
tary of the navy has ordered Lieut..
Nathan Sargent to proceed at once to
the oil fields of Pennsylvania, where
he will make a careful investigation of
the various grades of petroleum pro-
duced in that region with a view to it's
use as fuel for marine engines. Upon
the conclusion of this work he will re-
port to the authorities in charge of
the Newport torpedo station, and
plans will be drawn up for an oil
engine which will be placed in one of
the new torpedo boats now being
built by the THRESHOLDS. This will be
the first attempt to use petroleum as
fuel for the torpedo fleet, but from the
success hat has been attained with
this motive force in swift steam
launches owned by private parties,
both here and abroad, the navy depart
men: looks very favorably on the ex-
pertinent. Some of .he advantagesex-
pected from the new fuel are economy
of machine space, and conSe-
q~uently great fuel carrying capacity;
in the cost of fuel and the ability TO
develop extremely high steam pres
sure under forced draught. The plans
for the new engine are not yet laid,
and will depend largely on the report
on the various grades of petroleum at
command. 1t is possible that with this
innovation in fuel will be combined
the use of the steam turbine engine
whose success in the English torpedo
boat Turbina has been a decided epoch
in the development of these feet de-

WOODFORD'S MISSION.
The United States Minister to the
Castilian Court
Charged with an Important Message-If
Spain Does Not Speedily Put Down the
Rebellion In Cuba the United States
Will Intervene-Gen. Grants Idea.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 21.-Oficials OF
the state department were very reti.
cent yesterday when asked concerning
a report in circulation that definite in.
structions had been given all our for.
elgn ambassadors and ministers tc
European countries to sound and as.
certain the attitude of European gov
ernments in case the United States
should interfere in Cuba. While gen.
eral denials were made by some OF
them, others intimated that the United
States was ready to assume the posi-
ton taken by Gen. Grant in 1874, as
shown by the instructions of Secretary
Fish to Minister Cushing.
Although it never appeared hat these
instructions were carried out, and there
is no knowledge what Spain would hav g
done in the premises, it is possible that
Minister Woodford will have a different
report to make.
1t can be stated, on information re-
ceived, here that there is no truth in the
reportthat Lord Salisbury has sem an
~unfavorable answer to a suggestion
that the United States would interfere,
the fact being hat he has not replied at
all to the attempt of our ambassador to
sound him on the subject, and that his
attitude gives reason to believe he will
not oppose such action as our interests
may make necessary.
Minister Woodford's instructions are
to intimate to Spain that the United
States will intervene unless the situa-
sion in Cuba speadily improves. This,
in effect, was the instructions which
were given Mr.. Cushing by Mr.. Fish,
and, it is understood, that the attitude
Of the United States is almost Identical
with the position taken during Gen.
Grants administration. Then, as
now. the good offices of the United
States had been rendered to Spain to
bring about a settlement of the war.
But" said Secretary Fish, the we'll
intended proffers of the United States
were unwisely rejected by Spain"
The secretary reviewed the situation,
which presents many similar phases to
that which exists now. President
Grant, said the secretary, regarded in
dependence as the only certain and
necessary solution of the Cuban ques-
ton. The attitude of the present ad-
ministration is said to be on the same
lines, and it is said Minister Woodford
will make it clear to the Spanish u
thoritieS that our interests will make
Intervention by the United States i'm
perative unless something is done
speedily by Spain to improve the situa-
ton, disastrous as it is toour country.

Ticks Communicate Fever

Z
Exhaustive experiments at the stu
tons Of Texas, Alabama and Arkansas
have demonstrated beyond doubt that
splenetic fever, sometimes called ac-
climation fever, and often called Texas
fever, is communicated from one ami
NAL to another by means of ticks. Elk
periments in Texas have proven that
cattle can be made to swim through a
vat sunk into the ground and filed
with water, on top Of which floats a
stratum Of oil an inch thick and that
this treatment kills all ticks, the cost
being cents per head. 49,. =.
Some Of the experiments have led to
the belief that this fatal disease is not
communicated in any way except by
ticks, but to settle this point beyond
all doubt the Texas station cleaned a
lot Of cattle by the above method and
shipped them to the Missouri station
which will feed them for market, put
ting, native Missouri cattle into the
same pen with them for a week or two
at a time, turning in g. fresh bunch
every two weeks. If all these escape
the contamination it will be proof posi-
tive that cattle freed Of ticks may
safely cross any quarantine lines and
mingle with the cattle. For some weeks
before the cattle were cleaned of ticks
and shipped to Missouri, ticks taken
from their bodies were mailed to the
Missouri station and there put upon
three native COWS all Of which took the
fever and died. Now, If the same cat
tie free Of ticks do not communicate
the fever, a clear case will be made
out against the tick as the only means
Of spreading this dread malady.
