The uirhe.t Point Of the world.

The highest point in the world-that
is to say, the highest mountain tor
ever reached by human being-rests
now upon the writing desk of the King
OF England. 1t is a letter weight,
made of a piece of stone taken from
the summit of Mr.. Gaurisankar, the
highest mountain on the globe. It was
presented to his majesty by British
c4ficsr.

Tho First Woman Ever Pho toEraphcd.
Nowadays, when the principal busi-
ness of photographers is making por.
traits of women, and when being pho
tographed Is one of n woman's chief
pleasures. It Is interesting to know
that the first woman who ever sat be-
fore Il camera died at Hastings last
month. This lady was Dorothy Cath
crime Draper. In 1889, shortly after
Daguerre's announcement of his dis
covery of the action OF sunlight on
silver, her brother, the distinguished
John W. Draper afterwad President
of New York Universlty's medical col
lege, made some experiments with n
camera with his sister for subject.
In order that the impression might be
clearer her face was busted with n
fine white powder. This picture, the
result of the first experiment, is still
in existence. and Is owned by Lord
Herschers heirs in England. Many
other men have alleged that they
were first In applying Daguerre's dis
covery, but these claims are not well
founded. Miss Diapers likeness and
the date It bears have been accepted
as final proof that to her brother be-
longs the honor of being the first man
to photograph woman. and to her the
distinction Of being the first woman
ever pbotographed.-W Home

AAA4@@ ~
Col A. W. Newton, chief locating
engineer in charge Of the c. & A.
surveyors, who have been camped the
past two weeks at the EIkhorn bridge
near Gamma, came Ia from camp
Saturday morning and went to Mex
leo.
Mr.. Newton, while here, met several
OF u business men at the Bank,
where be gave a detailed statement 70
the writer, and Others, Of the proposed
new c. s A. branch. The surveyors
viii reach Old Monroe about Thanks
giving. The route as now being survey
ed starts from Littleby, in Audrain
county, runs two miles north OF this
city and crosses Eikorn just above the
iron bridge near Gamma, and passes
three quarters Of a mile south Of
Gamma and i've miles north OF Bell
flower, three quarters of mile north
Of Truxton, thence to Troy and from
there TO Old Monroe. Mr.. Newton
says that they made only ; curves
down the Elkhom valley.
He says that on their return trip
they viii leave Old Monroe IN Monday
after Thanksgiving, and run a line
from Old Monroe to Troy, Truxton,
Bellhower and WellsyiIle, thence to
Littleby, their starting point. When
this last line In surveyed, which viii
take about three weeks, the company
will decide which one OF the routes it
viii adopt, and that the work Of con-
struction viii commence at once and
be completed within u months from
the commencement Of the work. Mr..
Newton said that the question Of
building this short line had already
been settled, and that the question Of
money did not enter into the PROPOSE
tion; that 1t was a matter Of business
with the company, and that the CON-
pany was forced to build this road in
order 10 compete with other roads for
the Worlds Fair traffic.
Col Newton returned here Thurs
day morning on the "eom" in COM
pany with Col. H. F. Baldwin, Chief
Engineer, and his assistant, Col. W. d.
Taylor, Of Chicago, Ill.,, and drove out
to the camp near Truxton. Chef
Baldwin said before leaving that as
soon as the surveys were completed
the company would confer with our
people.

Neither in Food Nor Drink-st Louis
Won't Have It's Water Con-
taminated By It.

The Board Of Public Improvements
q 81 Louis has unanimously rejected
the plan to use alum to clarity the
city water supply. Physicians ex-
planned the nature and effects OF alum
upon system when taken into the
stomach, and public opinion was
found opposed to the use Of that sub
stance or any other chemical In con-
nectiOn with the water.
Alum introduced into water will
rrecipitate the mud or sediment and
make the water clear; but the practi-
cal result Of the process as found
elsewhere, Is that the water is liable
70 become more or less contaminated
with the alum, and consequently un-
healthful. IL slight accident or lack
Of care should occur through which
there was a failure to eliminate all
traces OF alum, there would result a
poisoning Of the watet. Cases we're
cited where water thus clerifed re-
tained sufficient alum to destroy the
life Of fishes, and TO affect the health
Of human consumers.
II is rather remarkable that with
the known poisonous nature OF alumni
in mind, and in face OF this enlight-
ened action Of the St Louis authori-
ties and the sentiment Of the public
in opposition TO the use OF alum in
either food or drink, there should be
found any manufacturers seeking, for
their Owl profit, to repeal the statute
which protects the public from alum
In food products.
The public were glad to be rid OF
alum in food. The action in St Louis
proves they do not want it introduced
into their drink.
