BUNDE STOPS A

RAILROAD CROSSING.

Some time ago the board of public

works asked that an ordinance be

passed requiring that railroads desiring to cross public .highways se

cure permission from the board. The

Indiana Harbor railway was the

first to be forced to follow the provisions .of this ordinance. Today

word came that this railroad was

crossing Plurumer and Columbia

avenues out east-of .town. Captain

Bunde went out at once and his per

suasive ability was sufficient to put

a stop to the work. The work will

not be allowed to continue until the

required permit is secured by the

railroad company.

CROSSING SAHARA.

The Costliness of Caravans and the Mortality f Camels. The merchants who fit out a garfia (caravan) must stand all losses; consequently great care Is given to the selection of both the camels which carry the valuable merchandise and the men who accompany them. The tall and ewlft riding camel known as the mehart is seldom met with In northern Tripoli. The finest raale draft camels, the Jamal, costing from ?50 to $GO apiece, with a carrying capacity of about three hundredweight, are used for transport. From consumption or the effects of the long strain scores often die by the way and many others at the end of the "voyage." The wages of the men for conducting a return cargo are sometimes as high as $3,000. Not only must the garfia sheiks have great courage and endurance, but must be trustwot&y traders and shrewd diplomats of no small caliber. Many of the sultans and chiefs, particularly the Touaregs, through whose territories lie the garfia routes, exact not only homage, but tribute, from the garfia sheiks. To bring this tribute within a reasonable sum and secure a safe conduct requires extraordinary skill and tact. The opportunities for dishonesty afforded the garfia men are many, and occasionally men and goods are never heard from again. Charles Wellington Furlong in Harper's Magazine.

LIST OF LETTERS.

Deatlata Patient. "Two of the most troublesome patients I have are members of my own profession," said a dentist in discussing the tortures of teeth. "Strange to say," he continued, "many dentists, whether from natural defects or early negligence, have exceedingly poor teeth, and as no practitioner can attend to his own we exchange services. If any of the patients of these two capable D. I". S.'s are revengeful of disposition it would do them good to see them In the chair. All men are much more difficult subjects for dentistry than women, according to my own experience, but the way tiie two in question wriggle, writhe, groan and cuss under the ordinary oper-

of tho girls. She says "In the first' ationa should be most gratifying to any

place Miss MeMan is like a mother to all those in her charge and the teachings these girls receive cannot

oue who has suffered at their hands."New York Press.

CHICAGO LETTEK.

Chicago, Aug. 11. WHEAT opened one-quarter from yesterday's closing price and recorded the lowest price so far on the crop. Liverpool markets were quoted one-quarter lower and this Induced quite a little short selling. Receipts of wheat here 362 ears, not as large as expected. In the last hour there was considerable buying by commission houses and elevator people which brought about a rally of five-eights of a cent and closed the market strong. CORN Sympathized in a measure with the strength of wheat. In the latter part of the session It became strong and closed at about the highest figures of the day. The September option continues to show stubbornness and all offerings In this

future are readily absorbed. Talk
