Nyman, secretary of the Rock Creek Electric Railroad Company> Is busily engaged making the necessary ar- Tangements, especially so far as tickets are goncerned, the transfer of passengers to and from the Washington and George- town, Metropolitan and Belt lines, which, {t is expected, will go into effect September 1. After much consideration of the matter, Mr. Nyman selected a form of transfer ticket, which, he thought, would answer every requirement, and sent his copy to a printer to get a bid for having the tickets printed. Mr. Nyman was much surprised to receive in reply a letter stating that the form of ticket adopted by him was, in the opinion of the printer, an infringement of an existing patent. Believing that there was some mistake in the matter, Mr. Nyman requested a bid on the work from another printer, but he was again given the information that the tick- et, as it was propcsed to be issued, would be an infringement of an existing patent. Mr. Nyman has written. to the printer first referred to to send him the numter of the patent and he will, if he conciudes to have that sort of a ticket printed, commu- nicate with the patentee and ascertain the views of that gentleman on the question of royalty to be paid for the use of the in- vention. Meanwhile, however, Mr. Ny- man has devised an exceedingly unique and attractive ticket. There is universal regret on the part of the employes of the Rock Creek Electric Railroad Company that there is a prospect that the harmonious relations which have for so long existed between the officers of the line and themselves may have to be severed by the consolidation of the road with that of the Washington and George- town railroad in the near future, and it is hoped by the men that the new owners shall continue as many of their present superior officers in the positions they now hold as they can find it ‘consistent to do. It is the general impression that Superin- tendent Herbert Claude will be kent in cherge of the Rock creek division and made an assistant to ‘Mr. Sailer of the Washiag- ton and Georgetown railroad, who will, it is expected, be created general superi tendent of all the lines of the new Capital Traction Company. The conductors and motormen of the Rock Creek road are now paid $1.) per day cf nine hours, but it is their expecta- tion that when the new regime goes into effect thelr wages will be increased to $2 per day, the amount now paid by the Washington and Georgetown to its grip- men and motormen. ——~—.__. VIENNA. A large tabernacle is being completed for the accommodation of the immense crowds which it is expected will attend the village camp meeting nzar Dranesville this month. The camp meeting will open in a few days and will be in charge of Rev. Mr. Weller of Sterling circuit. It will be composed of nine churches, and most of the services will be held in the beautiful grove sur- rounding the church. The meetings will continue for a week or ten days. Some of the ablest ministers of the Baitimore con- ference Methodist Episcopal Church South are expected to be present.

CARLIN SPRINGS. mfort Cottage," the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Mitcheil, on Poplar avenue, was the scene Friday evening of an exception- ally pleasant entertainment. A unique f ture of the occasion was a beautiful nig blooming cereus bearing fourteen fully de- veloped flowers. Thosé present included a full representation of the society of the village, whose numbers were reinforced later in the evening by a number of friends from .the city, who took advantage of the moonlight season for a genuine straw ride. After an informal musical program,. in which Miss Ida O'Neal, Mr. Sherman Fowler and Mr. Claude Miller took leading parts, adjournment was had to the lawn, where a supply of the good things of life temptingly spread. After an enjoyable evening the friends present took leave of their hospitable host and hostess at a late hour. Saturday a party of the village folk, with well-packed baskets, took their departure at an early hour for the Great Falls to spend the day in old-fashioned picnic style. Those occupying the six “tixes’ were Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. White, the Misses White, Ossire and Stockbridge and Messrs. Hedrick, Wm. M. Stockbridge, Ma- son and Gurley. The e sma’ hours’ of the next day found the party safe again at home, well satisfied with the outin: Miss Juliet B. Graham returned yesterday afternoon from Amherst, Mass., where she has spent some weeks past in pursuing a course of study In specia! branches. The house of Mr. Trimble has been con- siderably enlarged and improved ‘by the building of an addition, which is now com- pleted. A large pienic, followed by a dance in the evening, was held Saturday near An- nandale, which was attended by muny peo- ple from the surrounding country. The second picked nine from this place was defeated by a score of 5 to 3 in a game of five innings, which was played last Saturday, their opponents being the cor- responding nine from Annandale. The Car- lins nine was composed of Berry, pitcher; Carter, catcher; Evans, second base; Bailey, third base; Withers, short stop; Stern, left field; Rice, right field; Mitchell, center ‘field. Mr. Wm. M. Stockbridge, who has been making a brief visit at “Inglenook,” the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jones, returned to Washington last night. The Misses Mary and Nellle Ossire of West Washington have come out from the city to spend the next few weeks in the vil- lage. For the present they are with their friends, the Misses Stockbridge of Walnut avenue. Mr. Henry Hedrick left yesterday for Bethlehem, Pa., with the intention of wheeling the greater part of the way in company with a friend. He will return in about a week. There is no danger, from present outlook, that life will be monotonous here during this week. A straw ride to Chain bridge and Little Falls has been planned for to- morrow night, in which It is expected that most of the townspeople will take part. Thursday will find many of the villagers at Marshall Hall, enjoying the breezes of the Potomac, while the next evening is set apart for the meeting of the Euchre Club at “The House of the Seven Gables,” the home of Capt. and Mrs. Pennywit. In ad- dition to these “public” affairs, so to speak, there will doubtless be other diversions of smaller dimensions. A large bush meeting was held yester- day in the grove at Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church, several miles from here, which at- tracted a considerable number of people. Services were held at 11 a.m., 3 and 8 p.m. ——._—_ A Balloonist’s Fatal Fall. Mizs Adelaide Bassett, while ascending in a balloon with a parachute at Peterborough, England, Sunday, struck a telephone wire, which detached the parachute. The lady jumped and was killed. WOMEN AS BANKERS Many Are Presidents of Financial Institu- tions in the West. Interesting Statistics Which Will Be Presented in the Report of the Con- troller of the Currency. Women wield a greater influence in the financial operations of the country than the people generally are aware of. This is especially the case with banking affairs. Few of the uninitiated realize how great an interest the so-called weaker sex have in bank capital, and.the extent to which they figure in the management of banking insti- tutions as presidents, directors, sharehold- ers and employes. The presidents of sever- al national banks in the west are women, and the number of women acting as di- rectors of financial institutions is greater than woud Le imagined. The number hold- ing more subordinate places of trust and responsibility runs well up in the hundreds and is constantly on the increase. Women fre naturally honorable and trustworthy and they have displayed unusual shrewd- ness and discretion in financial transactions, They are faithful and conscientious, and are proof against many of the temptations that have so often proved irresistible to many of the male sex intrusted with the funds of other people. Interesting Statistics. Mr. Eckels, controller of the currency, will devote a chapter of his forthcoming report to Congress to the growing interest shown by women in the financial institu- ticns of the country. He has already ccm- piled some interesting statistics on this subject, covering both the national and state banks, but they will not be accessible for several weeks yet. At the date of his last report the number of shares of na- tional banks was 7,100,413, representing a aluation of $638,642, shares, were owned by women. The percentage of shares is 24.4, and of capital 18.9. The number of individual women holders of na- tional bank stock was 70,697. Confidence in National Banks. It fs noted as somewhat singular that women apparently have greater confidence in national banks than in banks organized under state laws. The total shares and capital of the latter class of institutions ‘s $3,618,804 and $07,151,716, respectively. Of this number, 481,008 shares, representing $88,074,712 stand in the names of women The percenteges are respectively 13.3 and 4, and the individual holders number 23,146, The women employes in of the country are he national and of the tate banks 58+. They receive a total com- pensation from national banks, $185,797, and frem state banks, $: The aver- age ati tion of women in the ‘orme $185.11,and in the la: ter $4504 average divider from bank stoc xX per cent, the wo- men of the country for a year would r ceive an ega nnual return from their investmeuts In banks of more than $10,600,000. _DIET AND DIABETE:! the Regime That Suggestions as to s Followe ould Be From the New York He ‘The diabetic patient must be made to un- derstand thoroughly that improvement and recovery depend on the amount of perse- verance shown and on the care taken in self-ohservation by having careful and me- thodical analyses made at regular inter- vals of the quantity of sugar in the urine. The patient’s weight should also be fol- lowed exactly and at stated intervals, and the physician should be informed if the weight of the body or appetite diminish noticeably. Finally, the physician should rot advise any madicinal remedy until he has tested the effect of a purely hygienic and alimentary course of treatment. If the sugar ars entirely after such a test, which should be instituted for 2 period of two weeks at le: he case is one that it is possible to c or at any ate to improve very noticea’ and the patient can count on living many a year, on condition that a rigorous course of supervision ney 3ut even in ¢ ars after y of regime it fs im- portant never t rupt the treatment iddenly, nor can such a patient be con dered cured. It is n ry that the use of starchy foodstuffs, and then of fruit and sugar. should only be resumed with the greatest caution aud extreme delibera tion. These forms of food shov'd only he no longer have any can only be a ain- ng for sugar after each alimen- experiment. e patient can then take a little bread at meals; if then the sugar does not re- eppear in the urine coming from that di- gestion, this can be continued for a week and the amount of bread can be somewhat increased. If the sugar fs still absent, a little milk can be tried, and later on po- tatoes, other starchy foods or fruit, the test for sugar being carefully made ‘after each new departure in eating, and no new substance being taken unless the test Is negative. If the sugar reappears after some change in the regime, uot only must the new article be dropped, but the strict- est regime must be recommended at once, and the series of exp2riments in changing food must be resumed once more. As a general thing, even in the simplest cases, this gradual return to a normal diet requires several moaths, and it is at this price only that lasting recovery can be ob- tained. But after two weeks of the test regime it an also happen that the sugar has not ppeared, but has gone down to a fixed point, below which nothing will induce It to descend. If the case fs a comparatively recent cne it will .still be possible to reduce the amount of sugar by combining a strict diet with an appropriate course of medication; nevertheless, as this severe diet cannot he continued for too great a iength of time without harm, it is necessary to know how to handle it skiNfully and to alternate it with the pharmaceutical remedies, the rlg- crousness of the regime being somewhat lessened while the latter are being used. In forms that are more serious still neither the regime nor medicine can make the sugar disappear, but they can keep it down to a minimum provided they stick to it for an indefinite length of time. It is, of course, evident in such cases that a segime that has to be scrupulously fol- lowed for an indefinite length of time must not be too absolute in Its severity, in the first place because the patient would final- ly.turn against it, and in the second place because the total absence of starchy food would finally creaie dyspeptic disorders and stimulate the nitrogenous denutrition that is already so intense in the diabetic Fatient. * Under these conditions, and while still excluding sweets and pure starchy foods, ft is possible to put together a regime that will be practically sutfizient, to which the patient will grow accustomed Kittle by lit- tle, and that he will follow for a long time. Even then, if the glycosuria were to sud- denly show an increase that could not be reduced by medicine, the absolute regime should be taken up again and continued until the sugar had sone down to its usual minimum. es Louis Stern Sentenced. Mr. Louis Stern of New York was sen- tenced erday at Kissingen, Germany, to two weeks’ imprisonment for insulting a public official, and to pay a fine of 600 marks for resistance to the authority of the state. The defense pleaded not guilty to the charge of resistance, and asked that Mr. Stern be found guilty only on the charge of insulting a public official. —___-+e+ A Persistent Dun, From the Philadelphia Press. An aged lady complained to a Londen magistrate that because she was a little behir.d In her rent her landlady followed her to church and asked for it there. The landlady came into a pew alongside of her, and when she was joining in the responses was constantly whispering to her about the rent. When it came to the response, “Incline our hearts,” the landlady would add, “to pay our rent.” The magistrate said that it was very annoying, but there was nothing illegal in it. CRUISER COLUMBIA’S DEFECTS. Admiral Meade Says She in Not the Kind of Boat We Want. From th Mail and Express. Richard W. Meade, rear admiral, retired, of the United States navy, who while in active service last spring read a paper be- fore the Society of Naval Architects and Engineers, in which he sharply criticised some features of the cruiser Columbia, had something more to say about that ship yes- terday. He says that as a citizen and as a naval expert be is proud of the Columbia, but that he dces not think she is the very best type for the money. “Now, as to the Columbia’s speed,” he says, “I se2 that her chief engineer is con- firmed in his belief that the triple screw is practically en impediment. She only used six boilers and two screws. “If she had set the triple screw at work it would simply heve dragged, and would have lessened instead of increasing her speed. That {s just the report that I ex- pected. She made her run on a maximum horse power of 15,000, while her extreme capacity is 21,000. “Again, take her coal capacity. Her or- dinary capacity is 1,700 tons, but for this record voyage 825 extra tens were distrib- Uted in temporary bunkers. These even took up space belorging to the crew. “I see that Capt. Sumner speaks of the irconvenience of the regular as well as of the temporary bunkers, and of the difficul- ty experienced in getting the coal to the boilers. That was a defect which I point- ed out in my paper last spring. “The armament of the Cofumbia is not what it ought to be. She was built as a compremise between the types of hignest aval efficiency and the commerce de- stroyer. She has just escaped being either. “Her spved attained in this last voyage shows that she is not in it with such liners as the St. Louls, Paris and New York, not to speak of the Lucania and Campania. “As a cruiser the New York, with its heavy armament, could blow her out of the water. I consider the New York in every way a better and more efficient fighting ship. She carries her coal better and more of it. “With all her horse power applied to her twin screws she could keep up nineteen knots an hour indefinitely. If Capt. Bob Evans had prepared her for a record pass- age, he could have krocked a whole day off the Coluniia’s time.” Admiral Meade says the Columbia is probably superior to any ship of her class in any cther navy, but that she is not the kind that we want. What w> want, he says, is commerce de- stroyers. These must be as fast as the swiftest ocean steamers, and with every consideration paid to coal endurance. “The policy which I approve,” he said, ‘is to develop American oceen Tacers, with every arrangement for the speedy placing of their ar regular navy,and drill their crews sufficte ly to make them as effective comparative- ly as the volunteer soldier- “Then at the first breath of hostilities we could sweep the seas of our enemy's com- merce, and we would regain the ocean ton- rage ‘which we lost through England's readiness to encourage our eremies in the late clvil war.” +o+—___ HIS DOG BROUGHT HELP. A True Anecdote of a Col markable Sagacity. From the Providence Journal. ‘The intelligence of the shepherd dog and his faithfulness to man were demonstrated in a remarkable way in connection with the death of Charles Gillen, a native of this city, who was killed in Montana two months ago by the accidental discharge of a revolver. On May 2 he was out on a buying trip, and was in “the Big Hole country,” 110 miles from Butté City. He had bought a ie’s Re- let of sheep and cattle, and was going further into the country to visit other ranche: He usually paid with checks, but when he went to ranches so far from business centers he could make better terms for cash, because of the inconvenience of trav- eling to get checks cashed. He had taken some $6,000 with him on this trip, and for He protection carried a revolve not carried a pistol before in two had there was a reason for this. previou: he had been attacked mun and shot hin After that though the man was net mortally wound: ed, he gave his pistol to the sheriff and traveled without one until he started on this trip, carrying a large sum of money into the Wildest part of the state. As he mounted his horse the revolver was discharged. He had dropped the pis- tol, muzzle upward, into the “chap,” as the hip boots of soft leather worn by riders in that country are called, and in get! on the horse the hammer hit against the horn of the sadale. A ball was sent up through his groin, and, passing upward through the body, came out behind one of his shoulders. He fell to the ground, but rallied, aud, mortally wounded though he ¥as, he once more climbed into the saddle, but could rot sit on his horse. Fainting from loss of blood he tumbled out of the saddle a second time. When he revived his shepherd dog was over him, acting as though fully aware of the serious nature of what had happened. The dog was once of two which Gillen had trained to herd horses and cattle. Realizing that prompt assistance must be obtained if the slight chance he had of surviving was to be made the most of Gillen tolé the dog to “go to McVey's ranch.” This was the nearest ranch, and one from which he might expect help to be sent as scon as they could know of the accident. There were other ranches in the surrounding country, but assistance might be obtained more quickly from this one. The dog whined and cried and showed a desire to stay by his master's side, but Gillen scolded, and told the dog to run the horse to McV. Finally the dog startéd, the horse ahead of him, and made a bee line for the ranch mentioned. On the way the horse fell in with a band of fifty other horses, but the dog cut him out, and ran him at full speed to the rareh. ‘On arriving in sight of the ranch the dog began barking to attract attention, and when the dog and rideriess horse arrived at the place the people knew something hac happened to Gillen. ‘As soon as the dog saw that the blood on the saddle was noticed he’turned and mani- fested a desire that the ranchmen should hasten back to where Gillen lay. Horses were quickly mounted, and the horsemen had difficulty in keeping the dog in sight, so great was the animal’s haste to return to the side of his Injured master. Gillen was still alive when his friends reached him. He said that after the dog left him a crew of freighters passed on a trail near by, but though he fired the re- maining shots in his revolver and shouted as best he could he could not attract thelr attention. Gillen was taken to MeVey's ranch and given all the care that could be bestowed to save his life, but he died the next day. + e+—____ AN UNDERGROUND CITY. Interesting Discovery Made by Rus- sian Explorers in Asin. From Lordon Public Opinion. The Russians have made a singular dis- covery in Central Asia. In Turkestan, on the right bank of the Amou Daria, is a chain of rocky hills near the Bokharan town of Karki, and a number of large caves which, upon examination,were found to lead to an underground city, built ap- parently long before the Christian era. According to effigies, inscriptions and de- signs upon the gold and silver money un- earthed from among the ruins, the exist- ence of the town dates back to some two centuries before the birth of Christ. The underground Bokharan city is about two versts long, and Is composed of an enor- mous labyrinth of corridors, streets and squares, surrounded hy houses and other buildings two or three stories high. The edifices contain all kinds of domestic uten- sils, pots, urns,vases, and so forth. In some of the streets falls of earth and rock have obstructed the passages, but, generally,the visitor can walk about freely without so much as lowering his head. The high degree of civilization attained by the inhabitants of the city is shown by the fact that they built in several stories, by the symmetry of the streets and squares, and by the beauty of the baked clay and metal utensils, and of the orna- ments and coins which have been found. It is supposed that long centuries ago this city, so carefully concealed in the bowels of the earth, provided an entire popuia- tion with a refuge from the incursions of nomadic savages and robbers. SHOT DOWN IN COLD BLOOD. Tragedy at-Versailles, Ky., Yesterday Afternoon. Shortly after four o'clock yesterday af- ternoon, at Versailles, Ky., W. N. Lane, fence dealer of Lexington, shot and killed James Rodenbaugh and mortally wounded H. C. Rodenbaugh, father of James, at Hotel Woodford. Early in the morning Lane arrived from Lexington quite drunk and applied at the Hotel Woodford, of which H. C. Roden- baugh is the proprietor, for a room in which to sleep. He was given a good front rocm. Shortly after four o'clock Lane came down, and addressing H. C. Roden- baugh, said: “The room you gave me is not fit for a hog.” 4 He kept up loud and abusive language. Finally H. C. Rodenbaugh said: “The room was very nice until after you had been in ate? This enraged Lane and made him more violent. Just then James Rodenbaugh,aged twenty-two, son of the proprietor, and a cripple, came in with a revolver in his hand, and addressing Lane, said: “Get out of here. You shall not abuse my old father in that way. : Quicker than can be said, Lane drew and fired, sending a ball through the young man’s neck, cutting the jugular vein. As James fell he fired at Lane. His aim was unsteady, and the ball barely grazed Lane’s left breast, plowing along the side. More furious than ever, Lane rushed up to the old man and at close range sent a bullet through his mouth into the base of his brain and still another into his spine as he fell by the dead body of his son. Lane was immediately jailed. H. C. Rodenbaugh was a soldier in the federal army, under Colonel J. D. Jaceb, ex-mayor of Louisville. He was for eight years postmaster of Nicholasville during President Grant's admjnistration. He kept a hotel at Nicholasvilie until he went to Versailles last spring to take charge of the Hotel Woodford. While in Jessamine county he was the leading republican of that county. He also had turf interests. In partnership with Rodegap, he was owner of Rook Laidley, Alary, Oriole and others, including some colts in training at Lexington. His only surviving child is Mrs. Cyrus Kenney of Nicholasville. ——___-e+____-_ Highest Trees in the World. From London Tid-IMts. In the Victorian state forest,on the slopes of the mountains dividing Gipps Land from the rest of the Australian colony of Victoria, grow the highest trees in the world, the noble gum trees of the genus eucalyptus. These trees range from 350 to 500 feet in height. One of the huge trees that had fallen was found, by actual meas- urement with a tape, to he 423 feet from the roots to where the trunk had been broken off by the fall, and at that point the tree was three feet In diameter. A cedar tree recently felled near Ocosta, Wash., measured 467 feet in height and 70 feet in circumference. Dr. James gives some interesting particulars of these gum ees. The eucalyptus globulus grew forty feet high’ in four years in Florida, with a stem a footin diameter. Trees of the same specics in Guatemala grew 120 feet in twelve years, and had a stem diameter of nine feet. Other species also attain enor- mous sizes—eucalyptus diversicolor is known to grow 400 feet high, and trees have been measured 300 feet long without a branch. Boards twelve fect wide can frequently be obtained. In 1860 a monster petrified tree was found in Baker county, Ore. It was just G66 feet long and at its butt was quite sixty feet in diameter.
