LONDON, April 10. London la so big, and to old, and so haughty that It rarely condescends to call Ihe nttontlon of tlio rest of tho world to any Important Improve ments that It Id about to make, so It often , gets credit lor being slowor than It really U. Yet In some directions It has taken stops toward public ownership that would mako tho most progressive of American cities Rasp. And today It Is In various stages of Improvements, municipal and national, that will cost more, all told, than tho onttro Ilocr war. In the courso of a few weeks the first electric street car to run In Iondon will make tho Journey from Westminster Drldgn to Tooting, and from that time olcctrlclty will supersede tho horso on tho lino be tween those classic localities This Is only preliminary to a projoat on tho part of tho clly of London which owns this line to making tho samo chnngo on all tho sixty eight miles of "tram-lines," as they nro called, which tho city not only owns, hut manages, a chango which It Is estimated will cost In tho neighborhood of $15,000,000. Parliament's consent to this transaction will bo asked by the Loudon county council In tho courso of tho present session, and at noon as It Is obtained for there Is no doubt that It will be tho work will bo undertaken at once. 5iiiiinIiImk n 111k Trim!. It seems rather surprising that such a really remarkable change should havo re ceived as yet ho llttlo attention, but the war Is partly responsible for this. More over It Is only natural that tho public should havo lost sight of other municipal enter prises In tho excitement which has been stirred up by the sudden determination of tho postolllco to tear up over 400 miles of London streets nnd lay therein an under ground system of telephone communication that will bo tho property of tho city and entirely under Its management. This sys tem will cost $10,000,000, and Its comple tion will mean a revolution of tolephono charges nnd rontnls In London nnd, Inci dentally, tho smashing of a big and rather Insolent trust. I'lly OtTitn TrniiMTiiyn. Tho function of tho trcot car In London Sn mainly as a means of transportation for tho worklngman whose business Is In tho city, but who lives In tho suburb.!. Most of tho caw run from the factory centers to tbo railway stations. There utc three separate nystoms, ono from the north, another frcm tho south nnd a minor one from the west. Tho city of London Is ncuml owner of the largest of theso, of tho second It Is both owner and mannger. Tho city acquired this lino a llttlo leal than a year ago. At that tlmo tlio pervlce V.BH bad, tho employes of tho road had to work seven days In the we-ik nnd rovldo their own uniforms. Tho lure was 1 penny or two American cents. Tho city reorgan ized tho servlco, supplied the employes with uniforms free, raised tholr wag'.f, gave them ono day rest in the week nnJ reduced thn faro from 1 penny to a halfpenny. In splto of theso expenditure, however, the highways committee will be able to report to the Lon don city council n surplus o-er all expenses of $170,000. It Is upon this line that elec tricity Is to bo flubstltuted for tho lets ef Xcctlvo horse. It Is tho Intention of the city government to do In tho case of tho telephones just ivhat waa dono In tho case of tho "trams." In going about their tU3k tho London post olllco becomes tho confessed rival of the National Telephono co.np.tn', v.hlch ban coupled high rates with poor service for a good many yearn, occupying tho fluid alone Mil oblivious alike to newspaper criticism and reports of parllameutn.-y committees. Tho KiikIIxIi I'oitnfllci'. It seenw almost cruel to havo laid yet an other burden upon tho back of this hard rworkeal institution, already bowed under a list of rospoiifllbllltlcM that It Is tlr.somo to think of, but each of them an Instanco of tho KrltlHh government'H success as a. shop keeper. For selling stamps, registering let ters and tho sort of thing that ono expects to And a postolllco doing is no more its only business than It Is of tho old farmer up In tho Adirondack, who is postmaster, groce -, toy merchant and undertaker all toiled In o one. Tho system of government suvlngs banks which Is one of the grcatmt of the things that tho postolllco has to attend to, Isn't, of courso, a municipal service, but It Is atio'hcc inrtanco of civil servants carrying on a bus iness that Is usually run by private com panies, nnd It Is connected with tho list of London ImnrovemcntB, for tho department 1 soon to move into a five-aero building In j Vest Kensington, where It will havo elbow ' room for Its 3,000 clorks and which will bo i . . t I.

When speak ing of this, Mr. D. N. Sinks, of Troy, Ohio, says: "Some tlmo ago I had a severe attack of rhoumatlsm In my arm and shoulder. I tried numerous remedies but got no relief until I was recommended by Messrs Geo. K. Parsons & Co., druggists of this place, to try Chamborlaln's Pain llalm. They recom mended It bo highly that I bought a bottle. I was soon relieved of all pain.

(Copyright, 1M0, by Cy Warmnn.) iA Chechawko lodged a complaint against a Dawson barber, complaining that he had been overcharged, robbel, as he put It. The barber replied, coolly, that tho man had not .been overcharged. Tho man wore that tho barber had taken $12.50 worth of dust out of his bag, and the barber acknowledged the dust. "Do you mean to say that you charged this man $12.G0 for a shavo?" demanded tho magistrate. "No." said the barber. "Ills nibs had flxln's. Hcto Ih my bill," he added, passing , a scrap of brown paper over to me couri. USED MOSTLY IU Ao.tKINOMBN. This, according to tho court's testimony, was what was written: Hnlr cut $ 1X Hnir singed !

'Wo," Interrupted ithei 'barber, "flxln's Ui extra," and ho produced other barbers who testified to the correctness of tho bill. Tho barber was discharged and the Chechawko cautioned to ask the price of flxln's In tho future, which he probably did. The Slwimh it (t Srrvniit, Tho Slwash Is a short, dirty, undemon strative, harmless looking Indian. Ho ap pears on tho surface to bo part Oriental and the rest Esquimaux. Perhaps a Chlneso or a Japaneso sailing ship was blown out of the Uorlug sea and up the Yukon, tho survivors got ashore, mixed up with tho aborigines and the Slwash resulted. Tho northwest Is not densely populated, -t wbMe ,t ,() ttm the nntlvo ,a Slwash. Tho natives here, however, are I not so useful as the natives of South Africa. ' Tho English who go there to trek and pros pect use tho South Africans for servants , and for beasts of burden. Somo of them try to use the Slwnnh, but with llttlo success. Captain I). of the llrltish-Amcrlcnn cor poration had r . however, that was a Jewel. His 'master grew very proud of his Slwash servant, or "man," ns he called him. Ono day a friend .was visiting at tho cabin. Tho visitor had bein out for a stroll with , his host. Returning to his cabin they I pntutd tho window of a little lean-to that ba tteti UP a captain's bath, As tho men peered n through the o, opon window they saw tho Indian. Ho had Just stepped out of a warm tub. Upon the floor lay tho soiled towels. Tho Indian was standing on hiH mnster's bath robe in front of the small mirror, vigorously scrubbing his teeth with his master's toothbrush. The visitor, who hated Indians, looked at tho captain. Without a word tho captain grabbed an old barrel stnvo and darted "round to tho door. Tho visitor henrd a spank, a yell and saw- the naked Slwash shoot out through tho narrow window and scoot for the woods. l.llierty or Denlli. Tho Slwash is a strange nnltnnl. Ho Is by no means a "bad" Indian. Ho Is not boisterously happy, but tho llttlo hnpplncss tbnt Is his he must have. He will live nnd thrive and grow on a glacier. Shut up in a unrm, dark cell, he will droop nnd pine and nie. n ,Ull nol kll, partly hecnuse ho is nnt vicious, but mainly because there is no ' one In his country worth killing. He was good, as certain homely, unattractive whlto folks nre, having no temptation. Ilut when the discoveries of gold on tho Klondlko brought tho prospector with horses and cat tle, picks nnd pans, ho wn3 tempted beyond his ability to withstand. Tho first outrage occurred when half a dozen Indians saw a eouplo of miners with a dazzling outfit. They followed tho pros pectors, ami when they enme to what ap j peared to be nn opportune place, set upon ' them. Ono of the men was murdered, tho other escnped nnd tho story of his hard ships written out would rend llko tho wlld oft bit of fiction. After days on lakes and rivers anil along nn unknown trail ho found help and was nursed back to life. Tho Indians, being amateurs, wero raslly fm)ml out wonj nrreBtF'l 8cnUncc(, t0 bo hnn(;0ll nt r)awso tried and son. The day of tho execution was fixed somo months ahead and beforo tho day arrived one of the Indians, a mere boy, died. Just n fow days beforo tho hanging was to tako placo the sheriff discovered that tho day was Oood Friday, and, by somo unknown mode of reasoning, porsunded himself that tho Indians could not bo hanged on Good Friday. The local Judge thought otherwise, but tho sheriff would not ngree, nnd so tho matter was referred to the minister at Ot tawa. It took many moons for tho papers to go to tho Cniladlan capital and back to th" Klondike. The minister of Justice ruled In effect that n man might bo hanged on tbo Sabbath or any other day fixed by the court; that an Indian was n man and that tho hanging must go on. I Ily tho tlmo this decision reached tho ( sheriff tho soul of another Slwash had soared nway. ; About tho tlmo tho sheriff got things ar ranged tbo local Judgo decided that tho day fixed for tbo hanging had long since passed Into history. The sheriff was now eagor lo have dono with tho disagreeable business, Ho demanded a dato and authority. "Hut," said tho Judge, "tho day fixed for the exe cution Is passed and gone. I can't turn back the unlverso and glvo you yesterday, Theso ludlnns, so far as I am concerned, wero hanged on Good Friday they're dead, all of them."

But the Wine of Cardut treatment, which can be adopted at home without the knowledge of any one but the patient her self, is now coming into general use.
