He had saved his country. Equally insignificant is the entrance of disease into thchnnnin system. The beginnings of the masti terrible ailments are so small they Easily stopped at the start.

KCKIMiTON RAILHOAD STOCK. A Cull Made for the Balance Remainin If Unpaid. A call has been made by order of the directors of the City and Suburban Street Railroad Company, formerly the Ecklngton, upon the stockholders holding the partly paUl-up stock of the Eckington road for the full payment of the balance. This balance is $10 per share, as only $40 per share was paid in on the 3tock. The total issue amounts to $352,000 and a controlling interest, or more than one-half, was purchased by what was known as the Widener-Elklns syndicate, when It bought the road some years ago.

It Is unders ood this i interest became the property of those that organized the City and Suburban road, ana who now control that property. The City and Suburban Railroad Com- pany was organized under an act of Congress passed during the tirst session of the present Cot grets, which authrriS'd Eckington road to purchase the al.ted roads and take the name of the City and Suburban Company. Under this authority the union of the companies was effected, and it was decided to issue for the stock of the existing companies stock in the new company, share and share aliks. I'SB Of FRANKFORT STREET. Whick Will Recommend Appropriation.

Mr. F. G. Eiker having Informed the Distrlct Commissioners that the owners of land lying between the Metropolitan branch I of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and 12th street, Brookland, have consented to dedicate Frankfort street to public use, and Mr. I Eiker having inquired whether the Com- mlssloners would recommend an appropriation for the improvement of the same, the Commissioners today Informed him that It I cannot be done under the prevailing condi- tions.

It is in accordance, they state, with their regular practice to refrain from rec- ommending an appropriation in a case situated as is the one stated, wliero a pub lc thoroughfare over a street is not secured. Unless such result were assured, the Commissioners explain, or made a public condition of the appropriation, its favorable recommendation would not be Indicated to Congress by them. Pnrity in Druga.
