vide a conductor which will receive the
cinders and gases from the stack Of a
locomotive and discharge them at the
rear end of the train, the purpose OF
the device being to prevent the smoke
and cinders from coming into contact
with the cars or passengers. A subor-
dinate object Is to provide for the d.
rect vertical passage of the smoke
when the engine Is at a standstill,
which is accomplished by placing q
hinged cap directly over the vertical
stack. with means for opening it from
the cab Of the engine. The conVeye,
is formed of q number of individuf
sections, placed horizontally on top o
the car, with means for automatically
joining the sections together when the
cars are brought into conjunction
Recent experiments have shown thai
large percentage of the coal is vast

charged through the stack with thu

would arrest large proportion of THU

Hospital For Sick Wheat;



The latest thing In the hospital line
is an infirmary for sick wheat, where
various ailments OF the kernel are
treated and in many cases perfect
cure is effected.
There is an immense annual loss re-
sulting from wet or diseased wheat.
The loss from loose smut alone Is at
least $1S,000.0 600 year. The Depart.
ment of Agriculture has disseminated
a great deal Of information among the
farmers in regard to the diseases OF
wheat and the means for bringing
about a cure, but not much beneht mas
resulted from the information. In the
large wheat sections of Manitoba ana
the Northwest the same conoitlons
prevail, and 1t was with the OBJECT Oh
reducing the loss to minimum tna'
the wheat hospital has been estaD-
lished at Port Arthur, at the nortn-
west end of Lake Superior. Here an
elaborate system is in use for restor'
Ing diseased wheat to healthy state.
The building Is in the form OF a large
elevator, very similar to the common
prain elevators of the United states
and Canada. 1t is supported out in the
lake upon crib work. so that vessels
NAV come alongside and carry the
cured wheat directly to the East or
foreign ports. About 100000 bushels
of wheat are treated in the hospital
every year.

Cszssss Case showing Separate syste.as
Of the Govern ment.

Cuxse1s Case showing Separate systenAs
Of the 0ovornment
A most curious case, showing how
the separate systems of the govern
ment may take on confusing shape, has
just come to light In Indiana. A man
who has for nineteen years been con-
fined In jail at the expense OF the ma
ton, has during all these years been
Ia receipt, or intended receipt, OF
considerable sum of money from the
same nation. 1t Is because the man

his services In battle were responsible
In part for the situation. It once oc-
Cured to the same man that after hav-
ing fought the good fight for Freedom
and unification 1t might be the grace
full thing for the country to recognize
his worth by monetary consideration,
SO he put in an application for PEN
sion. 1t was allowed, and the mans
name was written on the book Of fame,
after which he was entitled to dollars
Shortly following this period another
man passed on to the great beyond,
under circumstances which the coro-
ner's jury considered called for the
trying of somebody on capital punish
ment charge. 1t so happened that the
pensioner was the person fixed upon
as the active agent assisting ths
earthly exit of the deceased. Although
the pensioner stoutly maintained his
innocence. the proof was so strong as
to lead the jury to verdict OF guilty
and the committing Judge to SEN
tcnce of life Imprisonment. This was
In the year 1880, and for nineteen
years the prisoner worked out his des-
tiny behind the bars. At the conclu
sion of this time the man who hac
committed the murder took to his last
bed. and it occurred to lin to make
confession. So the pensioner is free
now. But he still has troubles. There
are some thousands of dollars in pen
sion money which the wardens have
failed to turn over to him, and he is
Obliged to sue for their recovery. Be-
sides, there are the wasted nineteen
