The methods proposed in the Indiana legislature to eradicate trusts are not quite of the dynamite order, but extremely drastic. The measure which has passed one branch of the legislature provides that all combinations or arrangements that attempt to decrease outputs, control prices or limit production, shall be conspiracies to defraud the people, and subject the participants to very severe penalties in fines and Impris onment Persons injured by the operation of a trust or pool in the state may recover at law double the damage sustained. The congressional act is so ineffective in re straining such combinations that the efforts of the state legislatures are being had n many sections. The vulnerable points, if there are such, ought to be reached by some of them. Poor Old Iowa. St. Joseph News. Yesterday morning a train of twenty-five cars loaded with the plant of an Iowa industry passed through Burlington bound for another state. The train contained the machinery, implements. patterns, etc.. of the Road Grader and Scraper works of Mount Pleasant, la., now being transferred to Aurora, 111. Several more train loads will soon follow, for it was a large manufacturing plant involving a capital of perhaps a quarter of a million dollars. And strange to relate it was a Mount Pleasant enterprise owned by Mount Pleasant people who were and are anx ious to bu'.ld up tneir home interests. Why, then, is this valuable industry, employing two or three hundred hinds and having a magnltlcent trade covering various states of the union, being moved away by the citizens who are the most Interested in keeping it in Mount Pleasant? The answer is not hard to find. The reluctant movers can answer It. 3 he enterprise is being exiled from the state through the operation of national and state railway laws. The Mount rieasant company, owned and operated by home interests, struggled long and hard to contend against fate. They found that with the contem plated expansion of their business they could save, by removing t Chicago or vicinit5, f 20,000 a year in freight charges! This alone represents a large profit. It is a profit at Chicago; it is a corresponding loss iu Iowa. Very few firms or companies could stand such a drain as that. But the Motiut Pleasant company he'd on, hoping that the courts, or congress, or the state legislature would afford relief. No relief came, and no prospect of any. The demagogues who were running party caucuses still found in the hue and cry against railways an open sesame to office and political power. They cared nothing for the industries of a state so that they got the votes. Finally a removal seemed ?to be an absolute (STcuiwg Jtnwliml. NO. BIO DELAWARE STREET. LKAVENWOBTH. KAN. . A.

Canon Charles Kingsley in "Ilypatia." So carefully has this work been done that we have at last a remarkably complete history of this famous city of the Macedonian Alexander, and can describe it at almost any aecaae or its development witn as much accuracy as we can Paris, London or New York. Yhile most of the discoveries have been made by prominent Egyptologists in pursuance of their studies, a few have been made by accident. The most notable of the latter is "Cleopatra's tomb,", so called. It was discov- everea a year ana a nait ago, when some workmen were digging a w ell at Rambleh, now a pretty suburb of Alexandria, but at the beginning of the Christian era, when the city was more than ten times its pres sent size, a fashionable quarter for both the Greek and Iloman residents. The tomb lay thirty feet below the surface, and was buried not by soil, but by the remains of streets, houses and heaps of debris with which the centuries had covered the neigh borhood. The room disclosed was a cham ber about 18 feet long, 12 wide and 12 high The walls, floor and arched ceiling were built of the rough stone and concrete with which the Egyptian has toiled for at least 7,000 years, and from which he has not de parted even today. There was none of that magnificent workmanship which is found in the Temple of Silence alongside the Sphinx and in Sakkara, Thebes and Memphis. The tomb was Greek rather than Egyptic in character. Within was a superbly carved sarcophagus containing the skeleton of a woman, and a lot of coins, terra cotta vessels, lamps, jewel cases and such other curious articles as fashion in those days de- Lov Finds a "Wy, Often a young man has written two letters at the same time and then placed them in the wrong envelopes, but the latest break of this kind was made by one of the prettiest girls in Louisville. She wrote a letter to her brother, who is at Knoxville, and at the same time a letter to a well known young newspaper man. The envelope directed to the latter contained a letter beginning "Dear Brother." At first the recipient of the epistle did not think this strange, as the young lady, although living in the city, is boarding at one of the female schools. After reading a few lines he saw it was not intended for him. Looking at the end he saw the letter was signed "Your Little Sister." This alarmed him and he began to think how he could get the girl out of the scrape. Finally he lost his head and did the very thing he 6hould not have done. He telegraphed the brother not to open the letter, that it was not intended for him. This had just the opposite effect, and the brother opened it, read it through and then forwarded it to his parents. The young lady is being sent to school to keep her away from this aspiring young journalist. The father, paid him a call and a stormy scene was the result. The young lady's letters have to go through the hands of the teacher now. In spite of this she has managed to get a letter to him, and he has written an answer that has reached its destination, proving that "love laughs at locksmiths." Louisville Commercial.

A majority of the stockholders stiU J creed should be buried with a person of distinction. u.he sarcophagus is limestone, about 12 feet thick, 6 feet wide and 6 feet high. It represents a huge casket with an arched lid, and is embellished with bass-reliefs and geometrical patterns of a high order of workmanship. The skeleton was that of a well built and graceful woman fully matured. A low, broad forehead, a typical Greek nose, mouth and contour of face, small hands and feet, and beautiful taper fingers and toes, a well arched chest, and broad hips indicate that she must in life have been remarkaby handsome. There is no indication that she was of royal blood, much less that she was the immortal Cleopatra. The only evidence is a legend that the famous queen of the Nile was buried in that neighborhood, and that the bass-reliefs on the sarcophagus are female heads in whose temples the deadly asp is sinking his fangs. The body was in all probability that of some wealthy and beautiful Greek woman of the time of the early Ptolemies, and the sarcophagus, if not made for her expressly, belonged to some opulent Hellenic noble or merchant prince. The coins and other curios were nothing extraordinary and threw no fur ther light upon the identity of either corpse or tomb. Nevertheless, the finder of this interesting relic, with brilliant foresight, named it Cleopatra's tomb, and Cleopatra's tomb it has remained ever since. It is visited by every European who goes to Alexandria, and what with the admission fee (fifty cents) on the one side and the profits of a cafe and salon just started next door, it has been a small bonanza. This week, however, saw the beginning of the end, when the owner signed an agreement to sell tomb and all for $ 10,000 to an American syndicate, which - will take it to the United States, exhibit it this and the next year in the great cities and finally make it a special attraction at the World's fair in Chicago.

Leavenworth has protested until she is tired and still no relief comes. The asses and cranks In the Kansas state senate think thev know our needs better than we do ourselves. We copy oa this page today articles from the Burlington Ua u kcye and St. Joseph News on the railroad legislation of Iowa. It is good reading at this time in Kansas wnen to do me moi or the masses and the darling of the people you have to be a rant ing, howliDg demagogue. Railroad regu lation Is always necessary because corporations have no souls, but a state can be injured by the senseless persecution of the monied classes. Iowa today is oae of the least prosperous states of the union. There are no cities within her borders increasing In population and there is not the demand for farm property there was a few years ago. ut course prohibition has had its blighting influence, but other unwise legis lation has been equally guilty. Ykt Samuel J.

The free coinage of silver has not yet had a opposed the chaiiKB out of regard for tne interests of Mouut Pleasant. They tried to figure out some way to avert tne removal. Again they went all over the figures, but the lowest possibl j eslimate showed a difference of fio.ooo a year in Ireight charges on the business beloieealsrge-mcnt. "You gentlemen.", said Captain Sicith, the general ii anasier. '"have the sentiment on your side of the argument, but 1 have the fig ures on mine!" And that wa-t true; and finally the company reached an agre -meut to remove the works to Aurora, 111 .which js on the Belt Line railway that encircles Chicago and gives tiiem th same freight rates as in tne city itself, f hey will greatly mlarge the plant. The new buildings are eighty feet in width and make an aggregate of a quarter of a mile m length. And this is 1'iwa's contribution to Chicago's greatness. It is the same kind of a contribution as Marshalltown and other inland towns have made to engorge Chicago as a monopolist of the manufacturing industries of tne west. This is achieved by au idiotic law which some people believe was framed to "help" Iowa. The state needs to be saved from such help as that, it is the help of a boa constrictor that is squeezing the life out of Iowa inland tOAiis audenrching Chicago, is it not about time to call a halt to such folly? The above is copied f roai the editorial columns of the Burlington Uawkeye, one of the foremost journals in Iowa, and one that duriDg the nearly one half century of its existence has labored with untiring zeal to build up and add to the prosperity of the Ilawkeye state. The condition of things in Iowa as pic tured by the Ilawkeye, which has followed and is directly resultant upon the savage and unreasonable warfare which the poli ticians of that state have waged upon the railroads, is not overdrawn. No person or interest in the state has been benefitted except the limited number of demagogues who inaugurated the cru- ade and have ridden into temporary poli tical power and position. In the mean time, legitimate business enterprises and business men, tired of the turmoil and dis cord which promises nothing but adversity and further depres sion, are leaving tne state. A gentleman who has recently visited a number of the more prominent cities in Iowa, has interviewed many prominent business men and has for himself observed closely the indications cf business activity or depression which were apparent, and his re port fully bears out and confirms the reports from many other sources that the railway legislation in Iowa has proven a damage to that state, the magnitude of which is yet but faintly appreciated. Not only are new forms of business enterprises being deterred front locating in lowa, but business enterprises wtiich were success ful and prosperous prior to the enactment of that law are being driven from the state. The states that border on lowa can stand the squeezing process as long as that state cares to continue it. Illinois will continue to welcome the manufacturing and mercan tile industries as they become tired of being buneted about by the "political Messiahs" of lowa. Missouri holds her doors open to the exiles from lowa, and offers a state richer in natural resources than any of her surrounding sister states, peopled with citi zens fair minded and liberal as any in the world, and with less crankiness and dema goguery in the whole state than can be found in single townships in lesi favored regions. Missouri needs railroads to develop her rich resources of iron, lead, zinc and coal W e need the business houses and manufac turing plants that are being driven from lowa. l here has been some talk of rail road legislation at Jtfferson City this win ter. l here may be some matters in con nection with our railroads that require some attention, but Missouri will not re peat or remotely approximate the unspeak- aoie tony wnicn is working such dire re suits in lowa and which will continue to sap the life of that state until the unjest laws are modified or repealed. i Hesltatlna About Loans.

One of the most remarkable human curiosities ever seen has been examined by M. de Quatrefages, the French naturalist. He is a provincial named Simeon Aiguier, and is 30 years old. Aiguier, thanks to his peculiar system of muscles and nerves, can transform himself in most wondrous fashion. At one moment, assuming the rigidity of a statue, his body may be struck sharply, the blows falling on a block of stone. At another he moves his intestines from above and below and right to left into the form of a large football, and projects it forward, which gives him the appearance of a colossally stout personage. He then withdraws it into the thorax, opening like a cave, and the hollow look of his body immediately reminds one of a skeleton. Aiguier successfully imi tates a man subjected to the tortures of th3 rack, as also a man hanging himself, ana assumes a struangiy caaaverous look. What most astonished M. de Quatrefages was the stoppage of the circulation of the blood, now on the left and now on the right side, which was effected by muscular contraction. Cin cinnati Commercial Gazette. THE SARCOPHAGUS. In the recovery of ancient Alexandria much of the work has been done by Dr. Neroutsos-Bey, a learned Greek, who has held many positions of honor under th khedive. Prior to 1S74 he devoted much of his leisure time to these archaeological researches, and attracted attention by a series of lectures and essays embodying the results of his work. A successful professional career enabled him in the year mentioned to give up most of his vocational duties and to apply himself exclusively to his favorite study. In the past sixteen years he has accumulated enough material to fill several large volumes, and has made a collection of coins, seals, bric-a-brac, inscriptions, statues, photographs and restorations which throw a flood ol light upon what heretofore had been uttei darkness.

While a Chicago, Burlington and Quincy freight train was coming from Uurnngton nere recently tne engineer noticed an eagle sitting on the track feasting on a rabbit. The eagle arose when the engine drew near, but the locomotiH) was running so rapidly that the big bird could not clear it. One of the wings flapped into the wedge shaped space formed by the head light bracket and the extension at the front end of the boiler, and was held there as in a vise. The fireman went forward and released the wing and car ried the eagle into the cab, where it showed fight and made things lively for the engineer, who finally cornered it and brought it here alive. It is now the prop erty of R. W. Colville, master mechanic of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, and is an unusually fine specimen. Galesburg (His.) Cor. St. Louis Globe- Democrat. Earnings of Railways for 1890. Bradstreet's gives the gross earnings of 129 railways for the year 1890. The amount realized on a total mileage of 83,673 was $484,239,134. This is a gain ot o.b per cent, in earnings and 2.7 per cent, in mileage. The gain on 130 roads in 1889 over 1888 was 8.5 per cent. Every group of roads shows an increase for the year, the smallest gain being that of the Mexican roads, seven-tenths of 1 per cent., and the largest that of the southwestern roads, 12.7 per cent. In addition to the latter three others 6how gains in excess of 10 per cent. viz., the eastern roads, 10.3 per cent.; the southern roads, 12 per cent., and the Pacific ronds, 10.9 per cent. The central western roads gain 9.5 per cent., and the grangers 8.7 per cent., while the trunk lines show the comparatively modest Wet Hair in Winter. "What a foolish habit some men have of putting water on the hair in this kind of weather," remarked one of the Du- quesne barbers. "Why put water on the hair at all? It is done, to be sure, to make the hair lie down, but it is - more of a habit than anything else. The hair can be brushed dry as well as wet. "You see men go out of barber shops with the water running from behind their ears, in a tew minutes it is changed into icicles. The next day they complain of earache, neuralgia, or pain m the bacn or the neaa. do you wonder why? The cause is not deeply hidden. It is not water on the bram this time, but ice on the hair." Pittsburg Dispatch. The late Judge Daniel Clark, of Man chester, N. H., was in the United States senate during the war, and was known as a man of wit and strong purpose. On one occasion he obtained the floor for a speech late in the day and asked for an adjournment, as he had not tasted food for twelve hours. This was refused; but when he had a tray with tea and sand wich.es brought and placed before him ins opponents at once voted a recess ti let Lira eat his supper.

Being the most ancient, it is the mosijreneral of all diseases or affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it. How Can It Be By taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, which, by the remarkable cures it has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine for this disease. Some ot these cures are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula, be sure to try flood's Sarsaparilla. " My daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof ulous sore neck from the time she was 22mcnt us old till she became six years of age. Lumps formed in her neck, and one of them after growing to the size of a pigeon's egg, became a running sore for over three years. We gave her Hood's Sarsaparilla, when the lump and all indications of. scrofula entirely dis appeared, and now she seems to be a healthy child." J. S. Caklile, Nauright, N. J. N. B.

The constant demand of the travehrg public to the far west for a comfortable and at the same time an economical mode of traveling, has led to tha establishment of what is known as Pullman colonist sleepers. These cars are built on the same general plan as the regular first class Pu!lnn.B-sleeper, the only difference being is that they are not upholstered. They are furnished complete with good comfortable hair mattresses, warm blankets, snow white linen, curtains, plenty of towels, combs, brushes, Ac, which secure to the occupant of a berth as much privacy as is to be had in first class sir epers. There are also seperate toilet rooms for ladies and gentlemen, and smoking is absolutely prohibited. For full information send Pullman Colonist Sleeper Leaflet. E. L.
