A Chinese boy was brought into the
Peking hospital terribly injured by a
heavy log falling upon him. The doc
tors cut off his leg to save his life. The
mother came, apparently to help to
nurse the lad. The patient, however,
almost Immediately afterward died,
and expert examination showed that
his mother had given him arsenic. Her
reason, it is supposed, was to prevent
her son from the disgrace of reaching
the next world in manned condition.
This is very strong point with the
Chinese, who always pickle an am
putated member or have it buried with
them when they eventually die. In
this instance, the family being poor
and the whole leg being difficult Go
pickle, the simpler course was taken
of poisoning the boy, so that he and his
leg might go ogether-Indian Med

The First woman Doctor.

America leads in the matter of wo-
men practicing medicine. The first

uated as a physician in 1s49. Three
years later there were six in Phil
adelphia. In 1889 there were 5000
women doctors in the United States:
in 1896 there were 1855, and now there
are probably 5000, some of whom have
very lucrative practice.

A man from Clinton, Wis, made the
experiment. He says: about year
ago I left off drinking coffee and tea and
began to use Postum. For several years
previous my system had been in wretched

with severe headaches. I was troubled

A 10 PER CENT CUT.
Railroad Presidents Promise It on
Grain Shipments.
GOOD EITHER TO EAST OR WEST
Hill Advises Washington Farmers to
Seek an Eastern Market for
Their Grain.

Tacoma, Wash. Aug. 6.-The second
meeting between the railroad presidents
and farmers of eastern Washington was
held yesterday at Colfax.
President Mohler Of the Oregon Railway
& Navigation company announced that on
or before Aug, Is, the Great Northern.
Northern Pacific and his company will
give a 10 per cent reduction on wheat
shipments to Pacific coast terminals.
President Mellen, representing the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern,
announced that the same reductions
would be given On rates for wheat ship
ments to Minneapolis. Duluth and Chi
cago.
President Hill said this action would
cut off onetfourth of the entire profits
OF the railways from wheat shipments.
President Hill was applauded when intro
ducei to $500 farmers Of Whitman county,
in the courthouse at CoHax. TWO fa1nt
Kisses were heard when mention was
made that he was president of the North
ern Securities company.
During his speech Mr.. Hill strongly
intimated that the grain exporters were
getting too much profit. He said the
millers are also making greater profits
than the wheat growers themselves. He
accordingly advised the farmers to seek
an eastern market for their grain. Said
he:
Send 1t east, where consumption Is
six bushels per capita. This may bring
the exporter and the miller to realiza-
tion that perhaps they can live on rea-
sonable profits.
''The railroads have made wheat more
valuable in Minnesota, and possibly we
can help you here. Let the people ano
the railroads be good neighbors and fail
to each other.
Il would like nothing better than fol
the people along the road to own the
railroads themselves. There Is no reason
why they should not
He then explained how he cured ex-
orbitant water rates by putting ships
on Lake Superior fifteen years ago. AS
direct result, he said, Duluth had be-
come the greatest tonnage port in the
world.
Next he had fought the elevator trust
In Buffalo and had reduced the cost o.
handling l cent bushel by building 6
100000 bushel elevator. Continuing, he
said:

we are bound to be poor. Some people

Governor Cunlmins, but 4 cannot per-
ceiye that the country wants any tariff
ttnkering. In Illinois everybody is too
busy to take much interest in politics. 1
have generally noticed that when the
country Is prosperous folks don't get
stirred up very much about the tariff or
anything else. 1 would be willing to see
the elections take place now if we could
get voters to go to the polls, and l
haven't a doubt that a republican con-
1gress would be elected. It is dull, polit-
ically. in Illinois, but business is pros
pering tremendously

Washington Aug. 6.-Speaker Hender-
son, in an interview published in a local
paper, says in effect that the tariff plank
recently adopted by the Iowa republican
convention does not mean much. The
speaker is quoted as follows:
My own state, Iowa, is decidedly IN
favor of the thoroughly tried and ap-
proved policies. Of the republican party.
It is strong protection state. 1t Is
equally determined that anything that
possibly can be done to curtail the dan
