The poison is the alkaloid CONNIE,
and is found chiefly in the seeds when
formed, but before that time in the
leaves, says the Farmers Review. The
root is nearly harmless during March,
April and May, but is dangerous after
wards, especially during the first year
of it's growth.
Domestic animals are frequently
killed by eating the plant. 1t should
be destroyed by hand pulling before
maturity. This is not great task,
as it is not generally found in large
numbers

TO REFORM THE RAILWAYS
National Commissioners Pass a Few
Resolutions Worthy Of Notice

Deadwood, S. D., Aug. 26.-The most
successful meeting ever held by the
national association of railway COM
missioners occurred here. The report
of the committee on amendments of
the act to regulate commerce made
some strong recommendations to con-
gress, which were adopted by the con-
venti0n with only one dissenting vote,
that by Isaac B. Brown, of Penn
sylvania. The resolutions in brief fol-
low:
/. To require all railroad companies
and other corporations to file all rates
and regulations with the commission
and publish rates for information OF
the public.
2. II rate is found unjust the
commission be given power to annul
it until the courts decide the matter.
3. If carrier is found to discrim-
mate against persons or places he
shall at once be ordered out or con-
form with rules.
4. No corporation shall be allowed
to increase rate without first con-
sulting the interstate commerce COM
mission.
5. That any railroad company or
corporation be compelled to give up
their books to the commission upon
demand.
6. That the new law gives the COM
mission power to make rules and regu-
lations for the government of private
car lines.
T. That section of the act to reg
ulate commerce" is not full and definite
and should be amended.
s. That heavy penalties be levied
on corporations not obeying orders.

SEARCH FOR MISS TUCKER.
YOUNG woman Ran Into the woods When
Persons Approached.

ROCHESTER. N. H., Aug Tho move
ments Of Miss Mary A. TUCKER of Providence,
stepsister Of President Faunce Of Brown
University who disappeared mysteriously
from Camp Ossipee q week ago to-day,
have been traced up to last Saturday, when
she was in South Lebanon, Ne.
On that day she was seen by several
persons going In the direction Of Somers-
worth, N. H., and it is believed she Is now
somewhere between Dover and Exeter.
Miss Tucker frustrated all efforts to detain
her by running into the woods. 1t il feared
that abe may have gone deep into the forest,
in which case it IL doubtful II she Is now
alive.
Several searching parties occurred tho
woods to-day without SUCCESS. but a. clear
weather is promised tomorrow. oonsider-
able more ground can be covered than under
the trying conditions OF to-day. The
woman must have done considerable tramp
ing since she left Ossjpee, a. there Is no
word OF her having taken any conveyance
since she began her wsnderinGs and she
undoubtedly walked the entire distance
Of sixty miles to East Lebanon.
1t is believed she followed the railroad
tracks most OF the distance, taking to the
highway when compelled to ask for food.
She was seen BY number OF people along
the route, but ALWAYS refused to enter a
house or tell where she was going.
A special officer has been hired by the
Rev. d. w. Faunoe to oversee the search
for his stepdaughter. DR.. and Mrs.. Faunoe
are now at Lynn With George Faunoe, a
son. They are exhausted by their efforts
to find Miss Tucker.

Connecticut Bridge Workers Send Word
to National President

Connecticut bridge workers Send Word
to National President
NEW HAVEN. Conn, Aug. 1.-E L. Warden
Of this city, business agent for the Con-
necticut jurisdiction and vice-president
Of the Matt onal Association Of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers, went to
New York to-day to have a conference
with Frank Buchanan Of Chicago, the
national president, about the wisdom Of
ordering out all the members in the union +,
10000, in general strike.
The American Bridge Company, which
the union charges has violated its agree
ment with it by subletting contracts to
the Boston Bridge Company, that hires
non-union men, has declined to give in
to the union or to meet in conference any
of it's representatives, because the COM
pany claims there is nothing to confer
about.
The Connecticut jurisdiction members,
all of whom have quit work in New England,
thus interfering with the finishing of very
important contracts, want q general strike
and have instructed Warden to say 80 to
the national president
All these men are now at work on other
Jobs since they quit with the American
Bridge Company last week. 1t was stated
that President Buchanan would make
another attempt to meet the officials of the
American Bridge Company before taking
the radical step favored by the New England
union.
