A number OF commercial travellers were
telling stories in an uptown restaurant

and this was vouched for by one who used
to be railroad conductor in Eastern
Pennsylvania
My train had always reached Lebanon
just after an express train, but the sched-
ule was changed so as TO bring my train
into the station first. A voluble PennsyI-
vania Dutch woman was a regular pas
senger on market days, as my train stop
ped at her station, while the express
whizzed by. The first evening that 1 ran
my train in ahead of the express she was
much astonished and delighted. She rush
ed up to me and exclaimed In the high
key and peculiar dialect of that region.
Wy, you're early Of late; you're first
at last; you used to be behind before"

Prof. Atwater, of Wesleyan College, has
been conducting some interesting expert
ments on the value of alcohol as a food
The professor did not try to ascertain
how much alcohol a man could stand
but how much one might drink and de-
rive benefit from the drinking His ex-
periments show that two ounces of alco-
hol taken in twenty-four hours have no
bad effect on a man. but more than two
ounces act as a poison. The experiments
were conducted under the auspices of a
committee of fifty for the investigation of
the drink problem, of which committee
Seth Low, President of Columbia Uni
versity, is the chairman They are held
TO establish the fact that two ounces

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record Dem.) says:
THE present healthy conditions of the
iron trade in this country do not grow
out of tariff favoritism, but out Of su-
perlor natural conditions and facilities
We hold our markets because we can
meet our competitors in their own mar
kets, ard because the iron trade is healthy
in all the iron producing countries. The
tariff encourages the formation of trusts
to take advantage OF nome consumers,
and is of direct disadvantage to Eastern
iron manufacturers because of the duty
on imported ores. No doubt the ultimate
result both of combinations and of tax
ing raw material, will be to hinder SYM
metric and satisfactory development 1t
is gratifying TO observe however. that the
wages of laborers in the iron works are
being steadily advanced. while at the same
time the manufacturers have discovered
that protection is of no further use TO
them. Both employers ana employees are
best served when they are allowed to pro-
tect themselves"
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican Qnd.)
says; Something new in trusts is the
liquid air trust, for which articles of in
corporation have been filed in Delaware
on a capital of S10,000,O00 Few of us had
supposed that the liquid air business had
reached that stage. 1t is only a step TO
an air trust that shall control the at
mosphere and rent air meters to go with
every pair of lungs. The liquid air chaps
il may be added, propose TO supplant the
ice dealers. One gallon of the liquid air
is equal to a ton of ice, and one quart
will keep a house down 60 60 degrees on
the hottest days. Such Is the talk of the
Incorporation. 1t makes good hot
weather Item"
The Nashville American Dem) says:
'The people of the South have an interest
in the construction of an isthmian canal
that they have never dreamed Of, and
they should insist that their delegates
to both the national conventions demand
the placing of strong canal planks in the
additional platforms Southern congress-
men should also give this canal question
their best efforts next winter. The con-
strucUou of an isthmiau waterway like
the question OF retaining the Philippines
should have no politics IN 1t. 1t is above
party"

Recent Jury's Decision.

1t was decided by the District Commits
sioners today to appeal from the award
made recently by the jury of appraisers in
the proceedings instituted for the opening
Of 10th street. About year ago the ag-
gregate amount of the award was about
$4,000, while the second jury awarded an
aggregate of $1,000. AS the Commission
ers appealed from the first award on the
ground that it was excessive, they feel that
in view of the large increase over that
award they cannot accept the last one.
Their appeal, to another jury of appraisers,
will be based. it is stated. on the grounds
that the recent award is excessive, and
that the benefits were not equally dis
tributed.
