MAY TUNNEL BLUE RIDGE.
Surveyors for Wabash Road at Work
In Mountains,

Surveyors in charge of skilled engineer
are making surveys for tunnel through
the Blue Ridge mountains for the Wabash
railroads fast passenger and heavy freight
trains. Members of the survey corps are
now at work in the vicinity of Blue Ridge
Summit.
While several initiatory surveys have al
ready been made for such a piece Of rail-
reading, the one now in progress will be
the most complete and exhaustive OF any
yet undertaken. The purpose of the pro-
posed tunnel is to avoid the big grades that
make it impossible to haul heavy freight
trains over the mountain or to make fast
time with passenger trains.
To overcome this the railroad company
will start line at the base of the noun
tain in the vicinity of Smithsburg and
build northeast toward Rouzerville and
then through the Germantown gap to the
point where it is necessary to begin tun.
neling. A former survey made the tunnel
pass directly under Monterey Inn. The
lines of the survey now in progress run
directly beneath Buena Vista Syringe Ho-
tel. The surveys now being made Will de-
termine the route.

HYPNoTISM FOR HABIT.
Used in the Treatment of Drunkenness
and Morphine Craving.
From the New York Medical Journal.

From the New York Medical Journal
Bereznitsky strongly advocates the en-
pioyment of hypnotism in the treatment of
drunkenness. the morphine and tobacco
habits The author argues that there are
no drugs which can be hoped to cure these
habits. and that modern medicine has found
the most efficient means of comba ting them
by means of mental suggestion In con-
nection with alcoholism and the combat
against II In various countries he mentions
the prohibition laws existing in some of
our states, but adds that such laws would
De Impossible In European countries. The
governments of the American states which
prohibit the sale of liquor rightly calculate
that the loss in revenue which Is entailed
by such laws is compensated to the state
py the increased healthfulness of the pnpu-
lation. On the other hand, the government
monopoly of the liquor traffic as it exists i'm
some countries (e.g., RuSsia) not only does
not diminish the evil. but prevents its prop
er control. He advocates the establishment
or outdoor services where alcoholics can be
treated hypnotfcally and Of Senatorial etc.
where the worst cases can be confined for
time also under hypnotic treatment. As
regards the treatment of the tobacco habit
he advises that tobacco be prohibited en-
tirely as soon as treatment is begun No
bad effects result from such a sudden re-
movai OF this drug as are noted In the case
OF opium HypnOtism easily cures the to-
bacco habit, but the cures are not often
permanent, as smokers resume the habit
more easily than other drug fnabitues They
do not regard this habit as seriously as do
morphine eaters. The results of treatment
with hypnotism In alcoholics have been va
riously stated at from 20 to so per cent
OF cures. The author thinks. that 20 per
cent is the correct estimate, and that the
high figures given by some observers are
due to enthusiasm over q new method of
treatment. But even 80 per cent OF cures
is a satisfactory result in alcoholism. a con-
dition which SO stubbornly resists treatment
by other means.

Hunt Foxes With Eagles.
rom the London sphere.

from the LONDON sphere.
A Siberian correspondent Of The Sphere
sends some photographs relating to a form
of fox hunting which is probably unique.
The hunting OF foxes with eagles takes
place among the Kirghese In the south
west district of Siberia, known as the gen.
eral government of the steppes. It Is q
favorite sport with the Kirghese and takes
place in the autumn and early winter when
the foxes coats are rudy and perfect.
though hunting Is not always confined to
this period. The eagles selected for the
purpose are powerful birds. of such weight
that small wooden support Is carried by
the eagle bearer. A well-grown bird Of
more than usually fierce temperament will
occasionally XIII a wolf. Directly any
game Is seen the birds make their flight
and swoop down with great precision. "One
Of these birds has. to my knowledge"
