Last February the receivers of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad company
decided to adopt the double conductor
system for all excursion trains ia order
to reduce to minimum the chances OF
an accident. One conductor under this
plan is given entire charge of the run
ming of the train while the other attends
to the tickets and the comfort OF the
passengers. The experiment proved
successful during the travel to anc
from the Inauguration oil President Nc
Kiuley, but during the past two or three
months it has been thoroughly demon
strated that its adoption was very wise

"A young man of Perrysburg was
telling of great disappointment that
came into his life when he was very
small boy. An old Auntie announced
her intention of spending Christmas
with his parents. She was very wealthy
and had no children, consequently he
anticipated a fine present and had pic
tured out new suit of clothes that his
dear Auntie would bring. He met her
with great pleasure and lavished much
Of his young love upon her but when
she carefully opened her trunk and
drew out a pair ofboys stockings, which
probably cost ten cents, his young at
fection was frost bitten and he told her
she might take her old socks and &c
home the next day.

NOTE WAS A JOKE.
The Fool Killer Had Not Reached the
Christopher Columbus

The fool killer does not seem to be
able to keep up with the demand for
his services He should have been
aboard the whaleback Christopher
Columbus, Aug. IT, when that note
in the bottle was thrown overheard
which was picked up Tuesday near
the Simmons ice house by John Mason
and handed over to the police for in
vestigatiOn. Investigation Of the affair
shows that the note was silly joke.
Miss Marie Young, one of those whose
names appears on the note, was inter
viewed by Times Herald reporter
Tuesday night, and this is what she
says: =" Miss Schmehl and I were pas
sengers on the whaleback to Milwau-
kee last Tuesday, the day the note is
dated, and were with quite a large
party of friends. But | know no one
named F. B. keenan, and haven't the
slightest idea who perpetrated the
joke, for such it evidently is. l hope
it won't reach the Cincinnati papers,
for my parents live there and it would
worry them to death. | must write to
them at once. There were eight or
ten people in our party, and I met a
number of others, but cannot imagine
who could have played such stupid
joke on me-"

SENATOR MCENERY, who voted

SENATOR MCENERY, who voted his
sentiments on the tariff bill, hit his
cowardly democratic colleagues a
pretty hard blow in his speech at New
Orleans the other day when he showed
that Senator Tillman, of South Caro-
lima, Senator White, of California,
Senator Lindsay, of Kentucky, and
Senators Bacon and Clay, Of Georgia,
who voted for a tariff on the products
of their own states, attempted to nuHify
these votes by voting against the final
passage of the bill. Concerning the
attitude of these representatives Sena-
tor McEnery said: =" If the south got
no advantages and benefits in the law
it was because of the Inconsistent and
selfish demands of its representatives.
Louisiana has been we'll taken care of.
The records of the session show that
where there were local interests to be
protected the doctrine of a tariff for
revenue only was lost sight of by dem
ocratic senators. The democratic SEN
ator from California who presided at
the convention of 1884 which nominated
Cleveland, ana who was distinguished
and prominent member of the Chicago
convention, voted for the high, and
you may say excessive, tax on boraX
because California was a boraX-pro-
ducing state. For the same reason he
voted for the prohibitory duty on
onyx and for the protective duties on
wine, fruits and nuts, all products of
California. and, may also add, for the
duty on raw sugar to protect the beet
sugar interests OF his state. He did
right; but | do not think he was alto
gether just to other sections in refusing
to vote for protecting their interests.
The democratic senator from Kentucky
earnestly worked and voted for protec-
ton for wood alcohol. The democratic
senators from Florida voted for the
protection of the local interests of that
state, and the democratic senators of
Georgia and South Carolina for the
protection of rice. lumber and any
other interest of their states which
presented itself Why aid and assist
in making the bill protective and then
vote against it? The interests that
were advocated would have been lost by
defeat of the bill. / voted for the in
terests of Louisiana [ secured the
protection we desired, and I did not
intend to lose it by taking any chances
for the defeat of the BILL"

BOTH Bradstreet's and Dun's

BOTH Bradstreet's and Dun's agree
that prosperity is not tagging on the
way. 1t is coming by leaps and
bounds. Here is what Bradstreet
saysfor this week just past: especial
kilograms from the trade centers
throughout the country emphasize the
growing prosperity of the farmer, due
to higher prices for almost all agricul-
tural produce still in his hands, and
point to continuation of the demand
which has been conspicuous within the
last few weeks. The volume of trade
continues to increase and prices are
hardening. No such volume Of bust
ness, largely in anticipation Of require
ments, has been reported since 1892.
Larger transactions have been in dry
goods, clothing and shoes, and south
and west in wagons and farm nipple
ments.
r. G.. Dun & Co. in their weekly
review of trade say: Not for several
years have the telegraphic reports
from various cities in all parts of the
country been as encouraging or shown
as uniform Improvement as this week.

The markets are called crazy by some,
but fairly represent the people, whose
confidence in the future is. strong and
increasing. Nothing appears to check
it. Rumors of injury to crops are not
sufficiently supported to have much
influence. The one temporary hind
rance is the strike of biruninous coal
miners, which ;nterferes, as yet little,
with industries and seems likely TO
terminate within week. The demand
for money improves, taking from New
York to the interior about $500,000
more than was received during the
week, and offerings of commercial
loans are much larger and the course
of foreign exchange is generally inter-
preted as an indication that specie
imports cannot be long delayed.

GENTLEMEN
A Small Blaze.

A small fire occurred Tuesday after
noon at 5 o'clock at the Craney estate
house, corner of Wisconsin street and
Ashland avenue. W. ]. Ryan at pres
ent occupies the house. The fire started
in a second story bedroom. The mother
of Mr.. Craney was in the room and had
a narrow escape from sufocation. The
fire lads arrived promptly, and it was
thought that the chemical would be
able to subdue the flames, but the fire
had dropped down between the stud
ding and had also spread to the attic
before discovered, so the water had to
be turned on and the fire extinguished.
The loss, all told, will be about $500

SgATN furnishes America a good eX-
ample in one thing, at least. Within
Dbree days after her prime minister
was murdered the assassin was con-
viete6 and condemned to death and
within two weeks must eXpiate his
crime La the case of Guireau, who
was &c strrlIingly similar example, in
some particulars, it took months to
30Dyict him and 1T was nearly year
before he was executed. In ordinary
cases of murder, even of the coolest
5lo0deds character, the murderer
stands o. chance of getting anything
Between death to absolute freedom.
Having in mind the methods employed
abroad to bring criminals to speedy
5pstiee, one must inevitably come to
Bbe conclusion, in the comparison, that
Americas criminal laws need revision,
and that badly Such laxity as is per-
Eaitt8d here is the breeder of lynch
sseourts, " lawlessness and contempt of
law and authority.

Now THAT about 80 per cent. of the
property owners along Durkee avenue
want that thoroughfare paved the city
should push the work along at once.
1t could be done now since the cost to
the city would be very little compare
lively speaking. There are only two
or three half street crossings for the
city to pay for and along very small
park and all the rest of the cost would
fall on the property owners. 1t would
make splendid improvement for that
part of the city, and all the more so
because of the offer of Edward Balm to
connect the south end of such paving
with the south end of the Park avenue
paving entirely at his own individual
expense. The council committee hav-
ing the matter in charge has reported
favorably on the project, but the coun-
ell has only accepted it's report and has
not adopted it. The report should
have been adopted at once. The en-
tire cost to the city including culvert
over Jerome creek, if desired, would
not be over $500 to $500. Push it
along, for it is good thing.

RAILROAD earnings are increasing in
all parts of the country. Large addi-

force, better hours are given, and as a
consequence more earnings and steady
employment. The July earnings OF
118 railroads, operating nearly 100000
miles of road, aggregate 81 per cent
higher than in July, 1894. This is en-
couraging for the railroad men who
stood firmly in line for sound money

The reports of the exports Of the
fiscal year just ended show that the
bulk of the money coming in from
abroad in payment for our exports
went to the farmer. The exports Of

$7646,384 corn, $54,O87,152; oats,
S., 56,2OT rye, 1861, 500; wheat,

work the farmer this year.

July, Commenting upon this fact
Bradstreet's says: This is evidence Of

radical improvement in the situation Of
the American agriculturist who has
had no such opportunity to reap a
large share Of the rewards of labor fol-

Now that the quick repair sidewalk
ordinance is passed, we may expect to
see walks repaired in short order.
Any alderman, police or street commits
sioner can notify the owner, agent or
tenant to fix a defective walk within
twenty-four hours, and if not fixed it
can be done by the city and charged
to the property. This will insure the
prompt repair of poor walks, and if
used with discretion will be benefit
to the citizens, and greatly lessen the
liability of accidents.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire.
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
