HOW IT HAPPENED. ‘The express ieft Washington on time, but lost time, owing to trouble with the engine, a short | distance out of the city, and then ran ahead at a speed of forty miles an hour tocatch up. A mile | West of Dickerson station the road makes a suarp | Tarn and then goes down a heavy grade in a deep Gut, the banks being 20 tect or more above the level of the tracks.

Prof, Riley Tells About the Pests which Overrun the Treasury Department, A pamphlet Just issued trom the Department of Agriculture on insect life reports the result of experiments in the destruction of roaches and water-bugs that were eating the valuable files of the Treasury Department. Tue Secretary wrote & letter last May stating that the files were being seriously damaged by the ravages of insects or vermin, and asking Prot. Riley for some means of procection. An expert was sent to the Depart- went to battle with the bugs. The report says: “The basement of the building was first visited, and many books examined which had the entire Dacks eaten off. These were old as well as more recently bound and were on shelves away from tue floor, Ing in as dry aod favorabie situations as are to be found in the basemeat, No ‘speciineas were found at work.

As the racing season draws near its completion ‘the query “Who bas won ali the money this year?” ts heard on all sides. Last year this question would have been considered superfious, as there were dozens of fortunate individuais who had won thousands of doll.rs on backing their judgment regarding the best horre in a race. This year, ‘nings are changed, and followers of the race horses have become timid, and, in many instances, bankrupted through the inconsistent performances of almost every horse on the turf. In fact, tue year 1888 will long be remembered as one in Which more than one plunger met his Waterloo. ‘Taking the season from Washington last spring up to the present meeting at Gravesend, nou ing like the wholesale siwughter of the favor ites that followed day after day can be recalled by une odest racing men im Awerica.
