Humane Slaughtnrinr.

This seems getting to be a live ques- ton. as appears from the many new in- Ventions and improvements in slaughter ing apparatus, of which this paper pre- sented some illustrations lately, and from the respective laws and ordinances of European states and cities and from tine Increasing interest England takes in the question, about which The Vegetarian (the organ of the London Federal Union) ot March, 1904. says
 We are glad to learn that a depart ment committee has been appointed to consider the most humane and practi- cable methods of slaughtering animals for food. MT. Arthur Lee, M. P. Civil Lord of the Admiralty. is the chairman of the committee. which includes repre- sentatives of the Admiralty. the war of- flee the board of agriculture the Corpo- ration of London, and the London Coun- t. Council The committee have visited Deptford (the abattolr of London) to see every kind of process that is at present employed in slaughtering animals, and have taken expert opinion as to the length of time the animals take to die The fact that the humane spirit of the age has compelled the authorities to move in this matter is an encouraging sign, Any system that can make killing more humane, and the more life is filled
 with incentives to humaneness the soonel
 will the slaughtering of animals for foo( take its proper place among the obsolete barbaritles of the past"

TRAIN DEPARTMENTS.

A German Invention to Prevent the
 Cars from Leaving the Track. United States Consul General Guenther,
 Frankfort Germany.
 MT. Gehricke, a German railroad off, cal. has patented a preventive appli- ace against the derailment of railroad trains. A rail is adjusted to the truck of the car parallel with the axle, so that 1t is in a position across. and about an irch above, the rails. Should a deratl- ment of the wheels take place these cross rails will lie upon the rails of the track without letting the wheels touch the ground. The car will then drag along upon the cross rails and slowly stop the whole train. The cross rails are also sup piled with projections underneath for the purpose of preventing the car from leaV- ing the track.
 The advantages expected are that de- railed car will not be suddenly stopped, will not fall with undlmlnished force upon the rails Of the track or upon the ties' and will not be dragged with the wheels upon the latter, but will be stopped slow ly. the cross rails acting as brakes.

Measures Required to Prevent Exter-
 .-As.- ze Medicinal pIants

imitation or meufclnal 1lants.
 The approaching extermination of our chief medicinal plants. unless measures are taken for protecting and cultivating them. is predicted in the Journal of Phar- macy by Dr. Kraemer Says the British Medical Journal in a notice of this ar- t!cle:
 Some well-known plants as spigelia, serpentaria and senega, which in the time oi Linnaeus were found tn abundance in Maryland and other Atlantic States, are already becoming scarce. It is well known that some plants have been im- proved by cultivation, and 1t may reason ably be supposed that all can be when the peculiar requirements of each have been ascertained. pr. Kreamer urges study of these plants in their natural surroundings in order that they may be successfully cultivated and conserved. Many of the medicinal plants now in use are being cultivated in the United States. It Is stated that 40,000, 600 pounds of pep permint are produced annually near CaIamazoo, Mich. Castor beans, from which castor oil is obtained, are grown ia the western and middle States. Vale- rian is produced in Vermont. Digitalis rurpurea, atropa belladonna, sanguinaria canadensis, cimicifuga racemosa and many equally valuable plants have been raised experimentally in America, and. in Dr. Kraemer's opinion, could be grown successfully with the proper cultivation.
 d, urges the further cultivation of cer- tain plants-such as senna, colocynth, gentian, poppy. etc.-which have been in troduced into the United States and grown there to some extent. He believes that three-fourths of all medicinal plants are grown either wild or in cultivation in the United States and that fully one-half of the remaining fourth could be success fully raised there. He points out that Americans must realize the necessity of protecting their forests and plants and must consider their care and preserva- tlon a duty both to themselves and to future generations"

SMELLS MOVE SLOWLY.
Some Odd Facts Relative to odors
 That are Not Generally Known.

It has been ascertained as the result of experiments conducted by Professor zo- leny of the University of Minnesota that tho diffusion of odors through the atmos- phere is much slower than is commonly supposed The professor has investigated this phendv1enon experimentally and he finds that it takes the odor of ammonia at least an hour and a half to make its way to the opposite end of glass tube about live feet long. With the idea of throwing some light on the character of o6ors-that is, whether or not they &C., tually consist of tangible physical par ticles of subatomic size, the experiment

was tried of allowing the odors to ascend and descend glass tubes and noting the time of their diffusion.
 ! One curious phenomenon noticed in this connection is that the odor of camphor ascended twice as fast as it descended, while ammonia diffused equally rapidly In either direction It is asserted that 1t Is the penetrating hydrogen sulphite odor carried by slowly ascending currents of air that the vulture class of birds that feed on carrion are able to locate their food These birds are often seen sailing round and round all day long until hnai- Iy sometimes after the lapse of two or three days, they have been able to trace the smell of their food from great aiti- tudes downward to it's location on the ground. .
 As Professor Moore declares. tue dis tance from which they come, often 100 miles and sometimes from an altitude of 10 GOO feet, give some idea of the gentle sicpe of these so-called ascending cur rents which are twisted and contorted into every imaginable shape by the wind.'

w. ID. Kelsey. of Chase County,
Neb., Charged with Aiding
Young Couple to ElOpe.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept. 6.-District
Judge W. D. Kelsey, of Chase county,
Neb, spent several hours in jail here
on the charge of abduction. The war
rant upon which he was arrested was
issued from his own court. The deten-
ton of the Judge was the outcome OF
an elopement. Miss Maude Miller, aged
Is, and Frank B. Martin, aged Fl, hv-
ing on adjoining farms in Nebraska
near the Colorado line, eloped to Chey-
enne and were arrested here. Judge
Kelsey, who knew the young couple,
Travelled with them from Holyoke, Col.
A telegram was received from the Ne
braska authorities asking that he be
held on the charge of abduction anc
he was arrested. Later he was pa
rolled. Upon the request of the father
Of Miss Miller, who went to Cheyenne
to take his daughter back to her home,
the charge against Kelsey was with
drawn.

FIRE Al sAIINA.
Normal College Burned to the Ground
Early.Sunday Morning.


Early Sundsy morning Salina was
visited by disastrous fire which re-
suited in the total destruction Of the
normal college building and all CT its
contents. The building and fixtures
were valued at about $25, 600 and
were insured for $4,000. The origin
Of the fire is mystery.
The normal college was one Of Sa-
lina's largest institutions and the
loss is a great blow to the city as well
as to those who we're directly inter-
ested in the school. The college
authorities have not yet decided
whether. they will rebuild. The fall
term of school was to have opened
tomorrow and all the preparations
had been made for conducting a sue
cessful and profitable years work.
The students who have already ar
rived at Salina to attend the school
will be commended to 60 to the
Kansas Wesleyan University.

COURT SITS MONDAY.
Criminal Cases Are Few but Divorce
Il on the Increase.


The September term Of the district
court will open on Monday, the 18th.
The bar docket for the term was
issued today and shows list Of 8
criminal and So civil cases. Six OF
the criminal cases are prosecutions
for the unlawful sale Of liquor.
There are ten applications for d.
vorce among the civil cases for this
term. This is about 60 per cent
more than the usual number. Seven
Of the divorce cases are brought by
women who allege that they have
been cruelty treated, etc. There is
but one foreclosure case on the
docket. The increase in the divorce
cases and decrease in the number Of
foreclosures seems to indicate that
prosperity has bad effect upon the
residents Of Dickinson county.

SEWER ORDINANCE PASSED.
Council Decides to Extend City'a
5 Drainage System.


A special meeting of the city coun-
Gil was held last Tuesday at the law
office Of j. A. Young, city attorney,
and an ordinance which MIR. Young
has prepared for the extention of the
sewer territory in the city was passed
upon and approved. The new ter
ritory will be known as District No. 2.
When provisions were first made
for sewer in Abilene, the matter
was looked upon as something of an
experiment and the district covered
was limited. The venture proved to
be such a success and so much better
in every way than the old system Of
surface drainage that it was decided
to increase the territory known as
District No. l.
District No. 2 will include all that
portion of the city situated between
Fourth and Eighth streets and Cedar
street and Buckeye. Bids for the
contract will be obtained and work
commenced as soon as possible.
The council also passed an ordi'
nance providing for the vacation OF
the alley running from south Sixth to
south Seventh street, between Buck
eve avenue and Cedar street.
