New Fast Schedule
to the East.
Less Than Three Days to Chicago.


The new train schedule of the Rio
Grande Western Railway and connec-
lions went into effect February 9th,
and has proved a great success. By
this new time card, passengers from
Butte, Boise, HALEY, Pacatello, and
all points on the Oregon Short Line
are landed in Chicago in less than
three dag aafft-E~aepar N-e. r. con-
nectfon is made at Og, q, the
trains of the Oregon V-.oro Line and
Rio Grande Western, leaving that point
at 500 a. m, arriving Denver at 900 a.
IN. the following day, and Chicago ut
2:15 p. m. the third day. Connections
made in Chicago with the limited trains
for New York. This new service is in
addition to the fast night train of the
Rio Grande Western which leaves Og-
den at 6:35 p. m, arrives Denver the
next evening, and Chicago at 500 a. m.
the third day, thus making close con-
nections in Chicago with the fast
morning trains for Boston and New
York.
Both of these trains are splendidly
equipped with all latest appliances and
conveniences, lighted with Pintsch Cas-
and carry Pullman Palace and Pullman
Tourist Sleeping Cars as well as Free
Reclining Chair Cars.

The atmospheric ocean surrounding
the earth is frequently disturbed by
gigantic waves, which are invisible en-

charged with moisture, up into colder

make their appearance at n great
height, marking the crests of ripple
of air waves, running miles above our

FREE EDUCATION.
Russian Mobiles Are Entitled to Thei r
Schooling at the Cost of the
Government.

The nobility of Russia in each and
every province, who form a kind of
corporation in the eyes of the govern
ment with marshal at its head, are to
be allowed to establish special board
ing houses or homes for those of their
ciIiidren who attend the middle-class
schools, but quite separate from such
schools.
The government undertakes to pay
the full cost of establishing these in
stitutions, which will come under the
supreme control of the minister OF pub
lie instruction, and in which the pu-
pills are to receive board, lodging,
clothes, linen, boots, schoolbooks, pc
cuuiary assistance, and, If necessary,
personal help in doing their home les
sons after school hours. The govern
nent also engages to pay half the year
" cost of supporting them. The prefer
Ghce in accepting boarders as well rs
gratuitous maintenance will be given
10 the children whose fathers hold any
official post in the corporation of their
class or in the zemstyos. or, who have
formerly held such post for not less a
period than nine years. The 1obility are
also granted the right of founding
scholarships for their boys in the higher
and intermediary establishments of ed
ucation, for which the government like
wise provides half the necessary funds.
At the same time anannu sum of 1885,
$50 roubles will be pa Jut of the i'm

t'on of AIS boys in two of the new mil

If the farmers of South Dakota live
up to their soil they will soon be grow
ing sugar beets. According to the results
obtained by experiments in South Da-
kota with the sugar beet. under the di-
rection of the State experiment station,
the soil of that State is pre~eminently
suited to its cultivation. In Germany
and France, where sugar making has
reached q high state of development,
the average of saccaharine matter con-
tanned in the beets varies from II to 10
per cent, In the factories of California,
Nebraska, and Michigan, the centres at
present of the beet-sugar industry in
the United States, the standard Is fixed
at Is per cent. of saccaharine matter
in the beets and 70 per cent purity.
Beets yielding this return are worth s4
per ton at the factory. Fifteen tons to
the acre is considered good crop. But
South Dakota goes ahead of these re-
turns on every point. A summary of
the detailed figures obtained by Profess
sor Shepard from the analysis of all the
beets submitted by the nineteen expert
ments shows that on the average the
yield was 1854 tons to the acre, the per-
ecntage of saccaharine matter was 1855,
and the purity was $3.50. Included in
the figures from which these averages
are drawn We're the comparatively
meagre results obtained by the few ex-
perimenters who failed to follow the
stations advice, so that it is reasonable
to suppose that, with proper cultivation
by all, the averages would have been
higher If larger tracts can be as sue
cessfully cultivated as were the expert
mental plots, it is estimated that the
average net profit to the farmer would
be 1854 per acre. This is very at
tractive, when contrasted with the av-
erage Of $40 per acre gross return from
grain, and it is assumed that the sugar
mill promoters, now in the State, will
have no difficulty In arranging with the
farmers for the desired acreage In
beets.

Il QUEER MISSO URI IAW.

An interesting and important suit Is
going to be brought in Missouri. where
the proprietors of department stores will
combine to test the constitutionality
of law which was made by the Mis-
souri, legislature this year. If this law
is constitutional and if it is enforced
there will be no department stores in
st. Louis and other large cities of the
State. This law divides merchandise
into eighty Eight classes which, in turn,
are divided into three divisions Under
its provisions proprietors of dry goods
stores must contine their stocks to sta
pie products Of the loom, such as cotton
goods, prints, table linens, dress goods,
etc. For all other merchandise sold in
what are known as department stores
license tax is to be exacted of from
$500 to $500 annually on each line of
goods where more than one is handled
in single store in which more than
fifteen persons are employed Cities
of less than $4,000 population are ex-
empt from the provisions of the law, as
we'll as wholesale houses, auction houses
and factories.
The proprietors of several department
stores in ST. Louis have been interview
ed regarding the effect of the law upon
their business. They generally agree in
regarding it as unconstitutional but
declare that if it should be enforced it
would strike death blow to the largest
commercial interests in the State. Du-
gald Crawford, of D. Crawford & Co.
says that ''the action Of the legislature
was instigated by the smaller dealers"
Charles Silk, of Silk, Baer G. Co, says:
1.-THE department store is an American
evolution Of business methods. The
cry against it is but the echo of the
war waged so long and so unsuccessful
ly against labor saving machinery.
This class legislation will surely react !
on the dealers responsible therefor
1t is certainly queer legislation, but |
these are queer times.

At MANILA.

The news from Manila this morning
isn't quite as encouraging as it was
yesterday morning, or as it will be some
other morning. Two military and two
civil Filipino commissioners appointed
to cooperate with three citizens of
Manila in negotiating terms of peace
have arrived at Manila. They have
submitted no new proposition but want
an armistice pending the session of the
Filipino congress. Major General Otis
has very properly refused to entertain
the proposal.
This doesn't look as if the F'ilipinos
were quite as discouraged as they We're
said to be. Perhaps however, the COM
missioners have only started in on
high pitch, intending to come down
when they find they must. The sooner
they come down the better for them
and those whom they represent. If the
insurgents had been more reasonable
they might have been we'll on their way
toward civilization and Christianity by
this time.

LIST In TIME.

Senator Hoar unfolded what he called
a little bit of interesting history in the
senate the other day when the bill re-
lating to changing the copyright law
was under consideration. He told how
Mrs Jefferson Davis prepared very in
teresting life of her husband. The own
ership of that biography was very i'm
portant resource to her in her old age.
General Gordon came into the senate
one day just before his term expired and
in the last moments of President Harri-
sons administration, and stated that the
publishers of the book had failed to
make the proper deposit of copies with
the librarian to save the copyright.
They claimed that the copyright was
gone and Mrs. Davis was absolutely in
their power Consequently they under
took to compel her to submit to some
very hard and onerous terms. She was
in great distress and came to congress
for help. A bill was passed relieving her
from that disability, and it was signed
by President Harrison within thirty sec

Did you ever have naupathia? No?
Well. were you ever seasck? If you
ever We're or ever expect to be you will
be interested in what DR.. Edwin X. Lo-
see has to say in the Medical Record
concerning naupathia. DR.. Losee re-
jects all theories of seasickness that
treat it as result of purely physical
disturbance, whether of the viscera, the
muscles or the blood in its circulation,
and insists that the whole trouble arises
from the difficulty which the uncon-
scious part or phase of the Ego has in
adjusting itself to unfamiliar condi-
tions. Underlying consciousness, he
says, there are mental activities which
are ever active from birth to DEATH The
faculty which directs and controls the
acts performed unconsciously or from
habit" as the saying is, can deal read
lily and effectively only with problems
with which it has long been accustom-
ed, and it is confused and for time
helpless in the presence of new ones.
Trained to interpret and effect the nee
essary adjustments of our body, de-
clares the doctor, this faculty is taken
by surprise when brought into different
relations from those of lifelong habit,
and this shock or succession Of shocks
to the mind, as in the case of the roll
ing and pitching of the vessel reacts in
some unknown way upon the nervous
system, and we have the phenomena of
seasickness. 1t is analogous to the eff
feet Of sudden fright or Joy upon certain
delicate organisms all the symptoms of
profound shock, or even death, may be
the result. Seasickness, therefore, is
the result of the shock to the brain
by the failure of the governing
faculties to become affiliated, or to an
ticipate those unusual movements caus-
ed by the rocking and pitching, the ris-
ing and falling, of the vessel. The symp- !
toms are the expression of this peculiar |
kind of shock.
Those who have ever been real sea-
sick will readily see that this deep de- |
scrption of their woe is not too deep.

done very carefully to supply roundness
where it is needed, and all edges are
thinned off. This will be pretty warm
for the coming season, but doubtless
the inventor figures that women won't
mind it's discomforts if only it permits
them to don the sheath skirt. 1t would
seem that to be quite sure that the SYM
metrical supplies lust her own particu-
lar deficiencies, it would be better for a
Wearer to trust to her dressmaker to
make her all-around pad instead of get
ting one ready-made. Apparently it
would be well, too. to be sure the pad
Is firmly pinned to the corsets in sew
eral places. Slips of false calves and
such things are bad enough, but a dis
placement of this sort of padding would
become historical.
