The Irritation progressed ia,

only who pleased the fastidious

a man to win a woman's admir-
alton. Above the ordinary
statue of his fellows, brawny
as the Viking of a Longfellow,
keen of observation and cpl,
gramatic of expression, he could
hold his own in any place-iu
any company. Little Rita,
watching the fast-fowering
friendship, noting the number
of dances he claimed from lie
more, the Jacquemiuots he sent,
felt a gnawing at her heart that
all her sweet youth had never
hitherto experienced.

New Santa Fe Official Says Double
Headers" Are Not Dangerous.

Austin, Tex, April 3-In the hearing
before the railroad commission Monday
as to the danger of running double
header trains, the principal witness in
behalf of the railway companies was
r. P. C. Sanderson. of Topeka. Kas., as
sistant superintendent of machinery of
the Atchison system. He stated that
prior to taking q position with the
Atchison he was for eighteen years en-
9loved on the Norfolk and Western
road in an official capacity. Double
header trains have been running on all
parts of that road for the past ten
years. and he never heard any COM
plant of them being extra dangerous.
His testimony was principally Of an
expert nature. and went to show that
there is no extra hazard in running
double-header trains
Several conductors and engineers en-
ployed on Texas roads testified in be-
half of the complainant employees
They all alleged that there is a greater
element of danger in running double
headers than there is in running single
headers.

New York World: The assembly has
passed bill that ought to become law
authorizing this city to establish a
special hospital for the care and treat
ment of consumptives The underlying
idea Of the measure is this: Consump-
tion kills 100000 people every year in
the United States-a large proportion of
them in New York. This is five or six
times as many deaths every year as
ever resulted in any year from yellow
fever. smallpox, cholera or any other
epidemic disease. 1t is now known to
medical science that in its early stages
this disease can be cured; that if neg
lected it becomes hopelessly incurable:
that it is contagious and is communi-
Gated only by contagion that proper
precautions would effectua1ly prevent.
Ut is further known that among the
poor of New York there are no posi-
bilities either Of hopeful treatment for
durable cases or of measures for the
prevention of the spread Of the disease
by contagion. The object Of this bill is
to provide for these two things It
means life to thousands and health to
scores Of thousands.
