in the British Isles. In Germany, we have the

a stone that got into mans shoe and hindered
him in walking. and figurative application of

orally "a putting together of cattle" As here,
the word for cattle was very frequently used

cognate Latin "pecus." On the other hand.
our cattle" which is quite the same word as
"chatte," has come to its recent meaning BY
the reverse of this process.

ERs DIE OF Tu5ERcuLosls--
DUST Is THE CAUSE.

Washington, Nov 9.--That approx
mately rs per cent of the deaths Of
persons whose occupations expose them
to municipal or streeG dust and to gem
eral organic dust, are due to tuber-
culosis, Is the fact disclosed in a bull
letin prepared at the bureau of labor
by Frederick l. Hoffman Though
these statistics indicate that municipal
and general organic dust are less SER
ious In effect than metallic or mineral
dust, the consequences to health and
life, MIR. Hoffman says, are sufficiently
serious to demand most careful atten-
ton.
According to insurance mortality ex-
perience, 25.5 per cent of deaths in oc-
equations with exposure to municipal
dust, were due to consumption. and in
occupations exposed to general organic
dust the proportion was 90 per cent.
AS compared with these proportions,
14.s per cent OF deaths of males Is
years of age and over in the registra-
ton OF the United States were from
consumption.
Among occupations exposed to mu-
nicipal dust, those showing the highest
mortality were drivers and teamsters,
among whom 25.9 per cent OF deaths
were from tuberculosis. Among oc-
equations exposed to general organic
dust, button makers showed the hign-
est mortality, 37.s per cent OF deaths
in this occupation being from con-
sumption.
In each Of the two groups the highest
consumption mortality was among per-
sons from rs to "a years OF age, the
proportion among persons OF these
ages being 1916 per cent In occupations
exposed to municipal dust and 40 per
cent in those exposed to general orr
ganic dust as compared with 31.3 per
cent for males of the same ages in the
registration area.

mine on his farm. 1t happened In this

awhile. and finally brought some OF the
sand to the city. and 1t was sent to an

was known to be perfectly reliable.
The result OF the test was received
yesterday, accompanied by certificate
stating that the gold In the sand would
net $l.20 per ton.
Mr. Yahne stated that the investi-
cations that he made at the time showed
the sand stratum was about six feet

Railroad News
PUT in STREET CARS
Reported that NJ. p. contemplates In
stallins Electric Line to Sta
ton at Valley City.

While no offlcial statement can be
secured on the subject 1t is understood
on good authority that the Northern
Pacific will install an electric car
line from Valley City to the grade sta
ton north OF that city
A prominent railroad man stated
that this is being contemplated, but
the officials of the local division say
that they know nothing of the mat
ter at the present time. AS II is about
mile from Valley City to the new
grade station, as the depot on the
hill road Of the NJ. p. is called, there
viii have to be some arrangements
made to accommodate the travelling
public arriving and leaving at Valley
City. At the present Zine all the fast
trains pass over thu high line, only
three local trains passing over the old
route through Valley City. The COM
pany is building fine station on the
grade line north CT the town, and some
means will have to be provided to get
to 1t. The electric line seems to be
the solution Of this problem and if
installed will be greatly appreciated
by the Valley City people.
