in the state would be applied by con-
gress 10 the building of a national
road from tide water on the Atlantic
coast to and through the state of
Ohio. Similar contracts were entered
into by the government with the
states of Indiana, Illinois and Missouri
upon their admission to the Union.
Subsequently the government sold
the public lands thus reserved and
pledged to the purpose of building
roads, and appropriated the available
proceeds to the building of a road
known as the Cumberland Road in
the states of Maryland, Pennsylvania,
and Virginia. Only a small part of
the money was spent in any of the
public land" states, and none of it
reached Missouri.
Congressman Barnhart's bill calls
for an appropriation of $5,O0O,OOO for
continuing the construction and pro-
viding for the maintenance of the
Cumberland Road in those states
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois are each to
get 81 ,000, 900 and Missouri $2,OO0,O0O
The bill authorizes the President of
the United States to appoint three
national highway commissioners to
have full charge of the construction,
repairs, and maintenance of the road.
They are to serve three years and re-
ceive $4,000 a year each for their
services.
The road follows the route of the
National Old Trails Road and is a
part of the system of $4,000 miles of
national highways proposed by the
national highways association. The
Cumberland Road does not touch Mr.,
Barnhart's district, but he recognizes
as ncOln did that mo public i'm
provement is so local as to be of no
general benefit" The rebuilding and
| standardization of this road would
not only benefit Ohio, Indiana, Hi
nois. and Missouri, but it will benefit
every state in the Union

As a result of the increase in the
use of bronze and other metal caskets,
railroads throughout the country are
considering the advisability of coll
lecting an extra charge for the trans
portation of caskets weighing more
than 500 pounds, which contain dead
bodies. No additional compensation
is now obtained on account of the
weight. 1t is expected that a vote on
the question will be taken at meetings
of the Central, Western and South
western, and other passenger associa-
tions to be held within a short time.

cant for license would be required to
file written application stating specifi-
cally the place where he intends to
engage in business, giving street and
number, or if the same can not be
given otherwise, by designating spe-
cifically the house in which the busi-
ness is located. The applicant would
be required to show that he is not
forbidden by any law in force in the
locality to engage in such business,
and to show license granted to him
by such local authorities, or that no
license is required. This bill would
make it an offense to engage in the
business or sell liquor without having
compiled with its provisions or to sell
liquor at any other place than the
particular place authorized in the IL
cense.
Mr.. Vaughan states that the bill is
in accordance with his campaign
promise while a candidate for con
gressman, and that he has carefully
prepared it to cover the ground fully.
He also stated that while he does not
intend to interfere in any manner with
the party program or the passage of
administration measures, he proposes
to push the passage of this bill with
all possible vigor.

PRESSURE DESTROYS PAIN
Experiments Here Show Parts of
Body Can Be Made senseless.

Startling experiments In pressure anes-
thesia were performed today in the Phlla-
delphia College OF OsteOpathy, 9th and
Pine streets, when Ira w. Drew, pro-
fessor of children's diseases, demonstrated
that he could render any party of the
body insensIble to pain by pressure ap-
piled to knuckles OF the hand.
Professor Drew made u experiments
upon members of his classes. Pressure
was applied by hand TO the knuckles OF
the students for a period of one minute
When the pressure was removed the
zones" of the body controlled by the
knuckles were cut with a knife, and in
each instance the only sensation reported
was that OF tickling, although those parts
Of the body not controlled were extremely
sensitive to the instruments, 1t was
found the anesthesia resulting from this
simple pressure upon the fingers had a
duration OF from 25 TO So minutes.
The discovery of pressure anesthesia,
or zone therapy, as 1t is sometimes called,
was made by Doctor Fitzgerald. OF the
St Agnes Hospital in Hartford, Conn.
Although he has carried on extensive ex-
periments in his laboratory, Doctor Fitz-
gerald has been unable to account for the
strange effect produced.
The experiments made this morning by
Professor Drew are the first OF the kind
performed in this city, and, although no
light was thrown upon the theory OF the
operation, It was shown decisvely that
the zones Of the body may be controlled
by this means.
