A remarkable antidote for accidents
is proposed by Julius Kruttschnitt
director of maintenance and operation
or the liarnman lines and vice-president
of the Southern Pacific It is his
theory and opinion that publicity is the
remedy or at least one of the most
eflicacious remedies at hand The
persons responsible for accidents
whether officers or laborers should be
known to the public in order that they
may be made to feel the weight of
popular displeasure We must brine
about a closer observation of the rules
governing the operation of the railroads
and a greater respect for danger signals
than we now get from our employes
This can be done only by the widest
publication of accidents This idea is
so at variance with the general rule of
railroads as to merit more than passing
attention Tho rule now obtaining- is
the maintaining of as near absolute
ignorance as is possible by gagging
employes and discouraging reporters
and the press etc Unrestricted impar
tial publicity might help the case and
heavens knows the case needs all the
help it can receive from any and all
sources

A Ilalilt to Kc Cultivated
Claane of IerHonn
Dressing for dinner is regarded by
some as n piece of arrogance and ns
evidencing merely a desire to appear
superior to somebody else They ob
serve no dignity In the custom aud per
haps do not realize the fact that the
change of clothes Is consistent with
personal comfort and cleanliness a
whether the new garments donned bo a
of the evening dress pattern or not
The most important meal of the day a
affords to those who dlno iu the even- 3
iug an excellent opportunity of ex- y
chanintr their wnrkiuliv olnllios fnr n fl
suit which has been brushed and aired
The bracing effect of a change of
clothes is well known Many a man
being almost too fatigued after an ar
duous days work to change his clothes
finds himself considerably refreshed I
when he experiences a feeling of clean- j 3
Ilnoss and preparedness for his dinner 0
and good digestion invariably waits on jj
healthy appetite The changing of
clothes may even thus favorably affect a
nutrition Nor need the changing of j
clothes be the exclusive luxury of the i
persons who dress for dinner The S
hard worked clerk the shopkeeper and
the worklngman would all be better if
they would cast off their workaday
clothes and put on clean clothes for the
evening meal after the day of toil is
over The change freshens the body

NEEDLESS NOISES
Mnddcnl2ir Effect of Some Sonnds
Tlant Assail Ones Ears
It is the needlessness of most noises
that renders them insufferable You
sleep very well through the roar of a
wintry storm but If some one has for
gotten to fasten a blind and it begins
to bang then you are lost niigist
as well get up and locate thi bhnd
and fasten it first as last The mani
fold noises of jour steamers plung
through tho night with the perpetiii
wash of the sea unite in a lullaby tu
which the worst conscience sinks into
repose but a snore breaking from the
next stateroom recalls the memory of
all ones sins The rush and leap and
Incessant but varied grind and clang
of the sleeping car become soothing at
last but a radiator beginning to liz
and click after the steam has been
turned off seems to leave the would be
sleeper no resource but suicide If you
could get at the second engineer and
leave him weltering in his gore you
could snatch a few cat naps before
morning But you cannot get at the sec
ond engineer after midnight in most
hotels Continuous noises and necessa
ry noises are things you can adjust
senses or your spirits to but the noise j
without a reason without an apparent
right like the gnawing of a rat in the
wainscot is what drives so many to
perdition W D Dlowells in Harpers
Claude Duval
This gallant robber of mens purses
and ladles hearts was of French ex
traction Duval became so rich with
his ill gotten gains that he was enabled
to retire from the profession and re
turn to France But a quiet life free
from the excitement of his old career
did not agree with his adventurous
spirit He returned again to England
and resumed his avocation At length
he was captured at the Hole in the
Wall iu Chandos street While in
prison awaiting his doom many ladies
of position visited him and endeavored
to obtain his release but justice was
Inexorable and he was hanged at Ty
burn in January 1G70 His epitaph in
St Pauls church Covent Garden
speaks of him as Old Tyburns glory
Englands illustrious thief and tells
us
Here lies Duval Reader If male thou
art
Look to thy purse If female to thy
heart
Much havoc has he made of both

He said repeating his favorite formu

Congressman Norris so ably has finally
been enacted into law This means for
Nebraska an additional Federal Judge
and deputy U S marshal and for Mc
Cook that a term of U S court will be
held in this city at least once a year
in March A Federal building is not a
remote possibility in this connection
