WORK OF A JEALOUS DOCTOR.
nsat Philadelphia Man Was
Made Blind.

Henry Askin. once a wealthy and
prominent man in Philadelphia, but
now totally blind and an inmate of
the Masonic home, tells remarkable
story Of the fearful result of one ply
sician's jealousy Of another, says the
New York Mail and Express. Mr.. As
kin declines to give the name Of the
doctor in question.
He says that in 1878 his eyes began
to trouble him, and the efforts of his
physician, who was also his friend at
that time, seemed to be unnvniling.
Growing alarmed, Mr.. Aslsin called in
another doctor, whose treatment was
effective. The first physician contin-
ned to visit him, but did not prescribe
1oe him. Suddenly Mr.. Askin's eye
si6ht began 70 fail. and the second
physician was powerfess to help him,
being finally compelled to admit that
his patient was ineursbly blind.
Thirteen years after Mr.. Askin lost
his sight the doctor who first attend
ed him died. On his deathbed he con-
fessed tt-'. being Jealous of the sec
ond physician's success with the case,
he had drugged Mr.. Askin's medicine
and produced blindness, from which
the victim never recovered.

~Tve seen many thing on race

~ was several years ago at New Or

onSwas Duke of Milpitas, owned by Al
dsg1ean Casey. of Chicago. But he was
nue, and whenever he took it into
hoAead to run no one could beat him,
but II he suiked nothing could bulge
hiA On this particular day he was
warn favorite, as the distance wa.
ssyea-eigh,hs, the going heavy and all
eosaitionE just to the liking of the
Duke: He went to the post all right,
hut be vas soon out of sorts and no
amount of lashing could make him
b0dgs. Finally 'twitch' was sent for.
and 3he assistant starter soon had the
Duke toeing the mark. Finally he
SHOWED .inclinations to run, and down
wentthe flag, with the Duke off in front.
The witch had caught on his nose in
some manner and the stick kept hitting
him oH the legs and chest. Despite this
-or, ferhaps, on account of 1.-THE
Duke rn1. faster than he ever did be-
fore. He won all the way, with the
twitch' hanging to his nose. Alderman
Casey won small fortune on his horse,

New Trans-COntinental Ieailrad.
The people Of Colorado can no longer
regard the Burlington Route as an east
ern railroad, first, last and all the time.
By the completion Of the cutoff from
Brush. Colo, to Alliance, Neb., dis
tance OF $50 miles, the Burlington enters
the field % q strong competitor not only
for buriness from Colorado to the Black
Hills, but also to Montana and the
Puget Sound country. The new line
was opened Sunday. September 10th.
1t is laid with IS pound steel rails; the
tles are chemically preserved; the grade
is eighteen feet wide, and from the
opening day trains will run over it at
high speed. AT present, only one pas
senger train a day will be operated in
each direction. This train will leave
Denver at 11.30p. M, reaching Alliance,
Neb., the next morning in time to CON
meet with the Overland Express for
Portland and intermediate points, run
ming over the Burlington and Northern
Pacific railroads.
The Burlington Route has substan-
tiaI advantage in point Of mileage over
competing railroads from Colorado TO
points as far west as Spokane, Wash.
To Seattle and Tacoma, it will offer
better service than any other railroad or
combination OF railroads.
II you nre contemplating trip to the
Northwest-Helena. Butte, Anaconda.
Spokane, Seattle or Tacoma-see to it
that your ticket reads via the Buring-
ton Route from Denver to Billings,
thence over the Northern Pacific.

II may be noted that while the pro-
fessors are disputing as TO the com
mercial utility Of liquid air as a pow
er, the main engine work OF the world
is still done by steam. Electricity came
long before liquid air. II has been
put to commercial uses for twenty
years. and immense advances have
been made in its production and appli-
cation. Yet the extent TO which It
has actually superseded steam us an
applied power is really trivial-and
there is steam engine behind every
current of electricity that is put to
commercial uses. Within few special
lines electricity is practicable as an
agency for distributing the power
originally generated in n steam engine:
but the day when steam shall cease
to be the driving power OF the world
seems to be as far on as ever.
