GLASS EYE CAUSES BEATING.
Man from salt Lake City, Utah, Winks
and Enraged Husband Forci-
bly, Responds.

James Reynolds, Of Salt Lake City,
came in to Kansas City from the west
over the Santa Fe railway the other
day. He has a glass eye. just this side
of Emporia he got a cinder in his good
eye. He placed his hand over the see
ing optic and kept it closed. Uncon-
%sciously his glass eye was pointed to-
ward a woman with her husband in a
seat across the aisle.
Frequently the cinder would cause
so much pain that Mr.. Reynolds would
involuntarily draw the lid down over
the glass eye. The woman thought he
was winkiug at her and called her hus-
bands attention to the matter. Amo-
ment later the cinder began to grind
Reynolds good eyeball and he pulled
the lid clear down over his glass eye
and held it there for a brief period. 1t
was a wink hat was a wink.
The husband, without saying a word,
took his umbrella out of the rack and
proceeded to wear 1T out over Rey-
nolds' head. After the husband had
broken his umbrella to bits passengers
interfered and explanat tons followed.
1t was then discovered that Reynolds
had been winking his glass eye.

Denounced by Government Official
as a Menace to Morality.
After nm Inspection Of the Homes of
the Rich and Poor I'm New York

presses Radical Views.

The greatest menace to the moral
ity of rich and poor in New York is
that it is a city without homes. This
is the result of the five days observa-
tions made by Thomas M. Robertson,
expert from the United States de-
partment of labor, sent to New York
city from Washington with commits
sion of six special agents, instructed
to prepare for congress a report upon
the conditions of living among New
York working people.
Besides that of New York, reports
are in preparation in Philadelphia,
Newark, Richmond, Norfolk, Cincin-
natl and Chicago.
II wish | could preach a Sermon"
said Mr.. Robertson, ION the crime of
tenements. l wish / could make 1t a
penal ofiense to build a tenement
house without a bathroom in every
apartment. Most of your tenements
are built without a single bath from
top to bottom.
NOWHeTe IN the united states are
the conditions for working people as
bad as they are in Manhattan. In
Philadelphia, in the western cities,
w~orkingmen have homes. In New
York they have simply a place to go.
IF / could talk to Mr.. Carnegie and
Mr.. Rockefeller l would ask them to
keep their money away from libraries
and away from colleges and to build
model tenements. / would see no col
lege endowed and not a book given
to a library until the people had
homes.
ION the lower East side I found the
other day a family of a skilled me-
chanic living in four rooms, and there
were II of them. That is indecent.
There can be no betterment of this
class while this sor of thing is pos
sible. There can be absolutely no
privacy, and without privacy there
can be no civilization"

Increasing Number - Cases Caus-
ing Investigation.
Facts Being Gathered by Surgeon
General of Marine Hospital serv-
i-ce-Congress to BE Asked to
L~abarettos.

The surgeon general of the marine
hospital service is not ready to pub
fish the results thus far obtained un-
der his direction in the attempt to
enumerate the known cases of leprosy
in the United States, for the returns
are far from complete. But, says the
Washington correspondent of the New
York Tribune, sufficient material has
already been secured by the experts
who have been investigating for the
last two years to Indicate that there
try, most of them immigrants from
abroad, and to warrant strong recon-
mendations to congress for their seq
regation. The commission, consisting
of Surgeon j. IL. White, chairman, and
Passed Assistant Surgeons G.. Il.
Vaughan and NJ. j. Rosenau, have been
working under congressional authori-
ty since 1899. They sent circular let
ters to physicians, health officers, hos
pital superintendent and others in
GOO localities, covering the entire
try, asking for reports and informa-
ton regarding leprosy patients. Eight
thousand circulars have been sem out
and only 1000 replies have been re-
ceived. From these PIT lepers have
been located and their names and adj
dresses obtained. About 100 are known
to live in New Orleans, many of whom
are well-to-do persons of good fam
lilies. In New York seven cases have
been reported. In San Francisco IS
cases are known; 12 are confined in the
pesthouse. Owing to the fact that
three-fourths of the circulars have
brought no replies, especially from
suspicious districts, the authorities es-
innate that only about one-fourth of
the cases of leprosy have been re-
ported.
The commission will almost certain
ly recommend to congress in its forth
coming preliminary report that ma
tional labarettos be established in
several parts of the country-one, per-
haps, at New Orleans, one in New
York and another in Minnesota or
Montana.

Oysters are widely distributed
throughout the world. Their chief
habitats are in the United States and
in France, with scattering colonies in
England, Holland and other places.
But the whole number in other parts
of the world is inconsiderable as COM
pared with that in the United States.
Maryland alone produces twice as
many oysters as the rest of the
world put together. Oysters and pow
erty, Dickens says, go together, but
it is not so in this country. Balti-
more cans an immense number for
both foreign and domestic consump-
ton, the revenue from which is enor-
nous. The Indians of the coast, be-
fore the discovery of America, used
them in great quantities. Near the
mouth of st. Johns river, Florida.
there is q forest-clad mound of over
so feet in height, extending over
many acres of ground, consisting en-
tirely of old oyster shells.-R. Meade
Bache, in New L%ippincott.

HAS PET DOG EMBALMED.
bodies VIII he Cremated
Together.

Fawley Place, the home of John
Moore III, at Quincy, ILL.,, is in
ing over the death of "Tom Paine,'.
Moore's pet pug dog. The dog was put
10 death with chloroform the other
morning by the veterinary surgeon,
who had been in daily attendance. The
pug dog was the constant companion
Of the old man, sleeping in the same
bed with him by night. When taken
sick with distemper a week ago, Moore
called in a veterinary, and no expense
was spared in the effort to restore the
canine to health. Moore nursed the
dog as a mother would a child, and had
not slept any for a week. As soon as
dead, the body was wrapped in white
cloth by Moore and removed to Under
taker Daugherty's Place, where he left
instructions that the body be en-
balmed and placed in a metal casket
and kept until his W death shall oc-
cur, when both bodies shall be placed
in one casket and sent to st. Louis to
be cremated. Moore, who has gained.
some notoriety by his agnostic writ
ings, is a man of considerable wealth.

of August.

An international sailing race half
way around the world viii start from
New York city the first week of Au-
gust. ,rhe racing ships are the Acme
and the Brilliant. The Acme was
built in Maine and flies the stars and
stripes. The Brilliant wa launched
n few months ago at Glasgow. These
vessels are the latest additions to
the big sailing feet of the Standard
Oil company. They are loading at
Bayenne for Yokohama, and their
sailing course is almost identical.
The two ships will follow the same
course, reaching Yokohama by way
of the China sea. 1t is natural tn A.
there should be a race under the cir
cumstances. The officials of the Stand
ard Oil company proposed it a few
days ago and found the captains
more than willing. The Acme has
never sailed a voyage before. There
was a time when a British ship did
not dare race a Maine built vessel"

liant. THAT vas when they built

TeII. Cd the suen Canal.

The "Histore d'oeuvre Franchise"
by Jules Charles Roux, is devoted to
a history of the Suez canal.
From it it appears that navigation
through the canal has steadily in
creased since its completion.
One-half of the vessels passing went
to India. The saving in distance
amounts on the average to 3sper cent,
with the line London-Singapore even
As per cent.
The cost of constructing and pre-
serving the canal amounted TO COO, O00.-
900 francs from 1869 to the end of 1899.
The number of passengers during
these 30 years was 4,271,74
The net tonnage of the vessels pass
ing was 156,Oo 900 tons.
In view of the steady increase of the
navies and merchant marine, the com
pany expects a further increase of
