A CHANGE IS MADE III TRACTION LINE Dayton and Western Passes To Hands of the Ohio
Electric Company. FLAN IS A CLEVER ONE. MANY BELIEVE THAT McGOWAN INTERESTS USED THIS PLAN IN AN EFFORT TO OUTWIT RICH MOND. Local employes of the Dayton & Western traction company were notified Sunday morning that at midnight Saturday the road rassed Into the hands of the Ohio Electric Railway company, which 13 a syndicate Into which all the electric roads In Ohio have been merged. There were two branches of the Dayton and Western as follows: the Dayton & Western traction company of Ohio and the Dayton & Western traction company of Indiana, incorporated respectively under the laws of Ohio and Indiana. Some time ago these two branches were merged into the Indiana, Columbus and Eastern traction company, and it is understood this was the title of the road at the time it was merged into the Ohio Electric Railway company. Whether the McGowan Interests, which control the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern, which operates as far east as the corner of Eighth and Main streets, Richmond, is affiliated with the Ohio merger, is not known. It is understood, however, that the city authorities by this latest move in the complcated traction game must deal with the Ohio Electric company in its light to have the branch road of this system operating between Dayton and Richmond apply for a franchise to op crate Interurban cars over Main street Is It a Dodge Game? It Is the general supposition that the McGowan Interests, which controlled the Indiana, Columbus & Eastern, alias the Dayton & Western, transferred the road to the Schoepf Ohio syndicate so that the city of Richmond in its fight against the McGowan syndicate to compel that big corporation to accept the terms laid down by the city in re gards to transfers between interurban end local cars, the operation of freight cars, etc., would be obliged to change its plan of campaign. It will be re membered that at the last council meeting the council, in a final effort to force the McGowan interests to com ply with the city's demands, passed an ordinance to the effect that no interurban cars should be operated on Main street from Eighth street to the east ' corporation line. This ordinance goes Jnto effect Friday of this week. What fiction the Ohio Electric railway com pany will take In regards to this ordi nance is awaited with interest. It is the general opinion that the McGowan interests have shifted a hot proposition onto the hands of the Ohio syndicate. WINCHESTER ON ALERT Effort Is Being Made to Advance the Town.

The F-apf Told the Tale. A certain Greek adventurer some years ago undertook to palm off upon the public some false copies of the gospel manuscripts. Many learned men were deceived, but not Dr. Coxe, libra rian of the Bodleian library at Oxford. How he detected the fraud was related In his own words in the Spectator: I never really opened the book, but I held it in my hand and took one page of it between my finger and thumb while I listened to the rascal's account of how he found this most interesting antiqufty. At the end of three or four minutes I handed it back to him with the short comment, "Nineteenth cen tury paper, my dear sir," and he took It away in a hurry and did not come again. Yes, I was pleased, but I have handled several ancient manuscripts ln my time, and I know the feel of old paper. Effect of Whistle on Rattlesnakes.

' The snake seems to become absolutely helpless when he hears a soft whistle and will make no attempt to spring upon you. This whistle appears'to soothe his anfrer and robs him of fighting power. I saved my life on one occasion iu this manner. Try It and you'll Cnd that I tell the truth." Nashville Tennesseean. What, Indeed? A duchess requiring a lady's maid had an Interview with one, to whom, after having examined her appearance, she said, "Of course you will be able to dress my hair for me?"

WAGGONER OUT Oil All INSPECTION TRIP He Will Visit All the Wayne County Farms Thought To Be Infected.
A WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS. AN INSPECTOR HAS BEEN SENT HERE FROM WASHINGTON TO TAKE DR. WAGGONER'S PLACE TEMPORARILY. Dr. W. O. Waggoner, fovernmrnt meat Inspector, ha started on a tour of Inspection which will Include all the farms in the county mhlch are known or thought to be Infected with tuberculosis. All livestock on farms visitfd by Inspector Waggoner will be administered tubercullne. An animal infected with tuberculo. sis. shows the disease within a few hours after tubercullne is given It. If an animal has the dread disease in an aggravated form it will be ordered killed and burned Immediately by Inspector Waggoner. In many cases, it will take more than one, Injection. of the antitoxin to determine whether or not the animal has tuberculosis. For this reason the work of Dr. Waggoner will require considerable time. , It is highly probable that a large number of animals will be condemned by the Inspector, as tuberculosis is known to be general in some sections of the county. An Inspector has been sent here from Washington by the government to take Dr. Waggoner's place while he la on his county trip. That tuberculosis had fastened its hold on the livestock of Wayne county was made manifest to Dr. Waggoner by the numerous carcasses Infected with the disease which were sold at the Richmond abattoir. It Is said that a number of milk cows from which Richmond people are now being served, have tuberculosis. These dairies mill be visited by Dr. Waggoner and it is thought there will be some surprising results. The health report for the year 100JV01 showed that one out of every sIk persons in Wayne county died from tuberculosis. It is hoped that through the present efforts of the government and city authorities, that this per cent of death from the white plague may bo reduced.
