RAILROADS HIT VERY HARD.
Losses From Flood and Fire Several
Millions.

Millions.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-The extent of
the damage to the railroads operating
in and out of Kansas City caused by
the flood can scarcely be estimated.
Outside of the very considerable item
involved in the loss to freight in cars
and buildings, nearly all lines out of
Kansas City suffered severe losses in
freight flooded. burned OR lost down
the river may amount to S2,000,000 or
S3,000,000. By way of illustration, a
dozen freight cars belonging to one
company and standing on tracks in the
west bottoms were washed down the
river. The Burlington lost seventeen
loaded cars by fire in Harlem and
nearly three times that number were
burned in the west bottoms.

VIENNA.-There is a wholesale
emigration of miners and workmen in
the iron districts of Austria to the
United States in consequence of the
unprecedented stagnation OF the iron
industry. Hundreds of men have been
discharged since the beginning of the
year and the mines and iron works
are operating short time. Wages have
fallen and in many instances the men
are earning less than so cents day
and their families are suffering severe
ly. There is faint hope of any imme-
diate Improvement in the situation

, Ring worm and da1druff are some
what similar in their origin; each is
caused by a parasite. The germ that
causes dandruff digs to the root of the
hair, and saps its vitality, causing fall
ing hair, and. finally, badness. With

badness. and to cure dandruff ii is
