Inspecting the Line.

President Miller of the St. Louis,
Brownsville &. Mexico Railroad,
accompanied by Superintendent O.
Roe, General Roadmaster W. J.
Carnahan, Supervisor S. Daily,
Car Accountant w. B. Upp, and
Stenographer bennett, yesterday
inspected the main line of the road
from Kingsville to Brownsville.
The inspection was thorough, and
marked attention was paid to
details which would help the man
agement TO understand the fire.
quent little accidents that have
occurred during the past few weeks,
such as rtucks leaving the rails,
driving wheels jumping their
boundaries and the spreading of
rails under very heavy loads. The
running of locals between this
place and Kingsville was also the
subject of an investigation. Locals
are required to make never more
than 20 miles per hour between the
two points, and the running at
higher speeds received attention.
The special train with the party
aboard returned to Kingsville at 2
o'clock this afternoon.

Likes BEING Hunted.

The extraordinary intelligence and
skill displayed by reynard when be-
ing hunted makes 1t extremely prob
able that he, In common with the
huntsman and the hounds, feels the
keen pleasure of the pride of art-an
important constituent of the spirit Of
the sport. In proof Of this, an old fox,
when fresh, has often been observed to
wait Tor the hounds, apparently with
the purpose of drawing them on, and
so giving n opportunity for the dis
play of his SKILL The fox owes his
present existence in England to his
skill in providing sport, and it Is not
therefore unreasonable to suppose that
he has acquired the sporting instinct,
just as the pointer, the hunter and the
terrier certainly enter into the spirit of
the sport for which they have been
bred and to which, therefore, they owe
their existence.-L4ondon Standard.

ostrichsa Are Poor Sailors.

"Ostriches are terrible creatures to
have aboard ship in storm" said a
sailor Knocked about by the waves,
they fall and break their legs. We once
carried eight superb ostriches. They
were good sailors. Their sea appetites
We're fine. But two days from port a
nasty gale overlook us. And then 1t
was pitiful to see those ostriches. The
ships lurches and ducks knocked them
off their pins, sent them rolling back
and forth, to and fro, wildly, help
Iessly Imagine dozen ostriches, now
on their feet, then-bang on their
backs, their long legs in the air, rolling
every which way. What you'd expect
to happen happened, of course. Their
legs broke. You could hear above the
storm the sharp crack of the splitting
bone. OF those eight fine ostriches
only two reached port alive

Alive Four Months In a Grave.

Hari Das, the great Hindoo fakir,
who lived in the first half of the nine
teenth century, is the only wonder
worker of modern times who has ever
allowed himself to be buried in the
ground for months. In the year 1889
Hari told General Ventura that for a
certain fee he would allow committee
to test the claims which he made of be-
ing able to die and remain dead for
months and then come to life again.
When all was arranged Hari hypno-
tized himself to such degree that his
circulation was wholly stopped. When
he was pronounced dead to all intents
and purposes he was buried in gar
den and high wall built around the
grave. Guards were stationed on the
wall so that interference or deception
would be impossible. Four months
later Hari was exhumed according to
agreement, and after few minutes Of
vigorous rubbing of his body by friends
ne opened his eyes, and an hour later
he was well and able to walk. The
fakir was clean shayen when buried
and is said to have come out of the
grave In the same shape, fact which
is cited to prove that vitality must
have been completely suspended.

Food and Digestion.

One Of the biggest mistakes about
food which people make is to forget
that the true value of food to anybody
is the measure of It's digestibility. Half
a pound of cheese is vastly more nour-
ishing, as regards It's mere compost
ton, than half a pound Of beef; but
while the beef will be easily digested,
and thus be of vast service to US, the
cheese is put out Of court altogether
for ordinary folks BY reason Of its in
digestibility We should bear this rule
in mind when we hear people compar-
ing one food with another in respect of
their chemical value.

nail brush and scrub 1t with the solu-
ton and allow it to get perfectly dry

How to Wash Fine Glass and China.


When delicate glass, such as Favril
or Bohemian, or frail eggshell china
is to be washed, it should receive es-
pecially careful treatment The dam
ger Of nicking such delicate ware is
very great. TO avoid this fold large
clean towel and lay it in the bottom of
the dish pan, SO that it will cover it
well, says the New York Telegram.
After this pour in hot and cold water.
About three quarts of cold to gallon
of boiling water will give the proper
amount and temperature for this pur-
pose. Add teaspoonful of ammonia
and make very weak suds with a lit
tie white soap before putting in the
glasses or china. Never use brown
soap, especially if cut glass is to be
washed And the sudden change of
temperature by adding dash of hot
or cold water after the dishes have
been put in the pan should be avoided.
