LOOK OUT FOR OPTHALMIA.
New York Physicians Place the Dis
ease on List of the Contagious
Malndies.

Because Of the discovery that op-
thalmia, a disease of the eyes, is preva-
lent among a large proportion of the
pupils in the public schools of New
York city, the board of health has
placed it on the list of contagious dis
eases, and physicians hereafter will
be compelled to make reports of each
case fo'ind in their private practice.
Through SPECIFICATIONS made in
two of the PUBLIC schools, where the
eyes of about 2,006~children were ex-
amined. it was found that at least IS
per cent. had the disease.\.ln one of
the schools 20 per cent. of The chill
dren were afflicted. and in the Other
Is per cent. ~
According to the physician who
made the investigation. the disease
may be contracted through using
handkerchief or towel that has been
previously used by an afflicted PER
son.

TOO MANY WEDDING GIFTS.
Express Agent Mt Greenwich, Conn.
Resigns Because He Cannot
Handle Them All,

So many car loads of wedding pres
ents have come to Greenwich, Conn.
by express to be delivered to the Nav
and June brides that the local agent,
Charles d. Nowrey, and his assist
ants. Harry Burnett and George Jer-
man, have thrown up their positions.
There have been numerous weddings
among society folks this season
among which were the Lauder-Row-
land and Rowland-Hubbell nuptials,
and the agent found that delivering
the hundreds of presents along with
the usual run of business was too
much for him. He found it impossi.
BILE to deliver the gifts and other
merchandise on time, although he
and his force of four men worked Is
hours day, and more weddings.were
coming, so finally in disgust he threw
up the position.

Went 1900 Miles in Wagon.

Danbury, Conn, Aug. 21.-John
Black and family have reached Dan.
bury from Arkansas, after three
months trip. They came in a "pra.
rie schooner" from Bonneville, Ark,
1900 miles away.
Black, who is said to be independ'
emily wealthy, conceived the idea OF
visiting his relatives in Connecticut,
and driving the entire distance, liv-
ing gypsy life ell route.
The family left home in May and
headed for st. Louis, travelling from
there to Terre Haute and thence to
Indianapolis, from which point they
iourneyed to Wheeling and then
struck straight line across the
country to Newburg on the Hudson
The travellers covered about fifteen
miles day on the average and
camped at night, using the huge
wagon for sleeping quarters and
cooking over camp fires wherever
they stopped. Beds, cooking uten-
sils and a supply of provisions were
carried in the wagon. The whole
family were in excellent health and
spirits when they reached Danbury,
which was practically the end of their
journey.

correspondent that, when organized
the combination would control the

for any combination in the LLnited
States to control the meat trade o.
Europe, because of the large ship

other South American countries.
