A Notable Railway Triumph.

A notable triumph in American rail-
way management has just been com
pleted in the lifting of the receiver
sup OF the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
Company. When John K. Cowen and
oscar G. Murray, acting as receivers,
took charge of the company they found
the property debilitated and hedged
about with a network OF complications
sufficient to appal any one but a pair
OF brainy and plucky Americans, whose
ability has kept pace with their pluck.
Through their skill this great rail-
road system has gradually been lifted
from the bog into which 1t had sunk,
and at midnight tonight passes out OF
the hands OF the receivers. The ac-
compEshment of this feat Of reorganl-
cation without a resort to foreclosure
proceedings stamps Messrs. Murray
and Cowen as men OF the highest rank
in the financial world, and enables the
road to resume its rightful place
among the giants of American railway
transportation. This community takes
particular qualification in the share
borne by Mr.. Murray in the work, and
his friends in this city will never
cease 10 remember his part in perfect
ing one OF the marvels of the era OF
American deyelOpment,--Cln. Com

Young men proposing to spend the
summer at fashionable resorts should
remember that Pope was wrong when
he said the greatest study of mankind
is man. The greatest study of man
kind is woman, and as young man
studies this subject he will find that
some women will be angry if he tries
to flirt with them, while other women
will be terribly provoked if he does
not.-Cin. Com. Tribune.

j. Washington. June 27--For two
weeks Washington has been infested
with bug which preys upon the
countenaces OF sleeping citizens and
leaves them unrecognizable and suffer-
ing with intense pain. So far the bug
has confined its attention to the male
portion of the city's population.
There have been 300 victims of the
bug treated at the various city hospi-
tails and dlspensaries. How many
more have suffered cannot be told
The identity of the bug has been dis
covered by an assistant in the Ento-
mologlcal Division of the Agricultural
Department, who was bitten. 1t is
known as the melanolestes plcipes. 1t
belongs to "a group that feeds on other
insects in preference to plants. It's
liking for human blood is a habit of
recent acquisition. In the west it is
often found in poultry houses, and
when in large numbers frequently at
backs horses.
according to the etomologlsts the
favorite food Of the p!oipes is bed
jug, and it is particularly fond of a
specimen freshly charged with human
blood. The picipes when full grown is
about one inch in length and is char
acterized by a fattened body and very
narrow pointed head. 1t has short
strong beak with point as sharp as
that of mosquito. II is jet black in
color and is a night flyer.
The piercing of the victims skin is
accompanied by no perceptible sensa-
tion, but the swelling sets in almost
Immediately. With the swelling comes
an intense burning pain, lasting often
from two to four days. The part
punctured swells to ten times Its nor
NAL size in almost every case,
Hospital physicians use a solution of
collodion in treating the bug bite
cases. This reduces the swelling in
from forty-eight to seventy-two hours.

OPIUM CULTIVATION.

As the cultivation of tobacco is prohibited in England, except under special license from the excise authorities, so the cultivation of the poppy in British India is forbidden unless license has been taken out. When a cultivator takes out a permit from the Opium Department to cultivate a certain area (usually two-thinds of an acre of his land) he receives an advance in money to secure his allegiance, and he binds himself to deliver to the opium agent, at a fixed price, ordinarily 5shillings pound, whatever opium may be produced upon his land. When official supervisor is eff cient i, x certainly very difficult for a-man to cultivate poppy on a larger area than is covered by his license without detection. The cul- tivation can not be concealed. It is sort of garden cultivation, the poppy plants being grown in little squares or beds, intersected by tiny water channels for irrigation when- ever this is possible. The growth of the plant is carefully tended and at length the time comes when they burst out into flower, and the fields look like a sheet of silver as the white petals of the flowers glisten in the morning dew.
 These beautiful petals are the first product of the crop, for the women and children of the culti- vator8' families come forth and pick them off one by one and care fully dry them, so that they may serve afterward as the covering of the manufactured cakes opium.
 Then the peoples, with their bare capsule heads, remain standing in the open field until it is considered that they are ripe for Iancing. The cultivators then come forth in the evening, and, with an implement not unlike the knives of eupping instrument, they scarify the capsule on it's sides with deep inclsions, so that the juice may exude.
 In the early morning the culti- vators reappear with scraping- knife and their earthenware pots, and they scrape off the exuded juice and collect It in their pots. And this is crude opium -Pedrso"' 5

ture should forget to have his plots in such @ shape as to be easily cul- tivated by horse work. Have them so that you can turn your horses easily at the ends of the rows. Clean culture is the first law. The second law for profit and pleasure IS, run wires along to stout stakes, and tie up all sorts of raspberries as well as grapes. This prevents breaking down in winter and spraw- ling in summer, besides assisting wonderfully in picking and handl- ing erops.-N y. Toice.

 The motto of the THmCE-A WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better than was the year before, and public confidence in it is shown by tine fact that 1t now circulates more than twice as many papers every week aa any other news paper, not daily, published in America.

SAM JONES ON TRUSTS.

The great evangelist and camp meeting preacher, Rev. Sam Jones, writes to the Atlanta Journal what he thinks of trusts, in the course of which letter he says:
 In the commercial world this is an age of combinations and trusts. In the ecclesiastical world 1t is an age of divisions and disagreements. The sociologist sees alarming 2 cor di- tions of the country. It looks now like everything is going into trusts. We look at the fact but fail to lock at the conditions under which these institutions are combining.
 am not much of sociologist. l haven't got sense enough to see where these trusts and combina- tions are hurting the country like some people see it. l have heard much abount the Standard Oil com pany trusts, but I am not going to kick against 1t as long as it furn- ishes me and my neighbor oil at ten cents a gallon. I have no kick on the Pennsylvania or the South ern Railway companies, even if they are called combines and monopolies, so long as they furnish me and my neighbor with the swiftest moving trains with a minimum of danger and maximum of comfort for the least price humanity ever travelled, at, and ship our goods thousand miles cheaper than we could haul them in a wagon ten miles. 1 have not much kick to make on that line. The great sugar trust don't l give us much room for kicking when they furnish us with granulated sugar at five cents a pound. l am a consumer and pay my grocer's bills and all other bills, and like things cheap. It seems to me that these great combines are made largely not so much to squeeze the public but to pool issues and profits. l never hear a fellow now kicking against combines but what l won der if he could step into Rocker feller's shoes wouldn't his mouth fly shut on the spot? l wondet i the average fellow owned 8 Bel Telephone company would he gC around talking about mOnopolies Among dogs, the dog that has got the bone does the gnaWing anC growing, but # Is different witt men. The man that has got thu bone says nothing. The ether fel- low who hasn't got 1t does tho growling I wish there were trust. enough for US all, but there is net | These great trust and combines aro , like the political offices of the coun try-the fellows that have got then l want to hold on; the fellows tha haven't got them are nearly deaC to ge: in.
