DEFINES AND DENouNcEs TRUSTS.

United States Attorney General Knox in addressing
the members the Chamber Of Commerce at Pittsburg
Pennsylvania the other evening defined and denounced
the soced trust methods of great corporations Over
capitalization and discrimination two of the prnc-
pal sins Of these combinations From these all the minor
wrongs and abuses how Corporations joint stock COM
panies and other capitalized associations in depending
upon statutory law for existence should be required to
do business legally and to do everywhere and
by everybody on exactly like terms Moreover, corpora
lions upon which the people depend for the necessas
life should be requrd conduct their business so as
regularly and reasonably to supply the public needs.
They should be subject to supervision and full
and accurate information their operations should
be made regularly at reasonable intervals Secrecy in
the conduct and operation is unfair the
managing stockholders should well for reasons
Of state be prohibited by law If these serious evils
were eradicated and higher administrative
responsibility required in corporate officers long step
would be taken toward alayng the reasonable appre-
hension that the unchecked aggression of the trusts will
result in practical monopoly of the important business
OF the country.
The attorney general defined the mergers and COM
bines denominated trusts follows: "The people by
common consent denomnaed the great industrial

OF commercial business trusts The technical accuracy
of the is unmportant but indeed it is much more

Water and the Kidneys.

AS the waste in animal food in those
who lead indolent lives is carried of
by the kidneys it is very desirable that
they should be kept well flushed with
plenty of water. for pure water is to
the kidneys what fresh air is to the
lungs, and taken III the early morning
preferably as hot as it can be slipped
It washes away the unhealthy secre-
tions that have accumulated in the
stomach during the night and stimu-
lates it to healthy action, and then
passing on through the system till it
reaches the kidneys. carries away by
their aid the uric acid. gout poison and
other impurities that should have nc
fixed habitation in the body at all and
would not have if the sufferer Were
properly dieted for even two or three
weeks each year.

KILLING A LION.

A Shot at Short Range Upon Which
Much Depended.
An Englishman who lived many
years in Africa relates a thrilling expe-
rience which befell his family there.
His home at the time was in the edge
of the Transvaal wilderness, and it
was there that the event occurred.
One evening about dusk my wife and
child were sitting on the veranda of
the bungalow. l was engaged a few
rods away putting the finishing touches
to bit Of wagon repairing. The serv-
ants were at the rear Of the house. It
was one Of those peculiarly quiet even
ings when nothing seems to break the
Stiffness
Suddenly felt, rather than saw,
something moving near the veranda. I
looked more closely and to my horror
perceived an enormous lion stealing
along the ground in the direction of my
wife and child. My wife saw the crea-
ture at the same instant and, despite
her terror, fortunately remained per-
fectly motionless and silent.
Scarcely knowing what to do, has
ily crept toward the side of the bun
galow to the open window Of my room,
where l knew a loaded rifle was lean
ing against the wall. I climbed in at
the window, seized the rifle and leaped
by another window upon the veranda-

and then fired.
The ball passed directly over my
boys head and lodged in the forehead

There was an instant of fearful sus-
pense. Then fred again, but the Sec
ond bullet was not necessary, for the
lion had been killed at the first shot.

A Very Old English Cloth.

Fustian is 4 species of cotton cloth
much used by the Normans, particular
ly by the clergy, and appropriated to
sOme%orders for their cashubles. The
Cistercians were forbidden to wear
them made of any material but linen OF
fustian. A stronger description Was
first manufactured in England at Nor

1t was much used for doublets and
jackets in the fifteenth century, al
which time it appears to have been iln
ported from Italy. 'Fustians of Ma
pies" are named in a petition to parlia

in England into ''futianapes" and ''fus'

Some foods, it is said, are most inju-

RAILWAY MAPS.

a Df4gRuntIed Passengers Comments
on the Straight Line Variety.
"Look at that" said an i'll natured
passenger, pointing to large map on
the wall of the railway station "Isn't
that an ahominable fraud?'
"Whats the matter with it?" asked
his mild companion.
''Look how it is distorted" said the
other There is a map Of railway
system from Chicago to New York. 1t
is made to appear as following a
straight line between these two cities,
and yet on the map it appears to pass
through every large town within 900
miles of that line.
"Just notice that towns like Cincin-
natl aud Cleveland are SO misplaced as
to appear only a few miles apart, and
Nashville, Tenn, is pulled 500 miles
from its real location. I wonder they
have not transported New Orleans a
thousand miles northeast, so as to
bring 1T on the line of their railway
fraud.
Congress ought to take hold of this
fake" he continued, "and punish heav-
lily every railroad that issues a dis
torted map."-Chicago Inter Ocean.
