Mr. C. P. Huntington Is a shrewd man and has sucseeded in many cuaning schemes, but hls recent iiitle game to relieve the Central Pacific from paylog its government debt out of the earnings of tha road has been pretty effectually blocked by the report of Sscond Comp- troller Maynard, who no doabt will be eustalned In the position he has taken. The former practice of the tressury was to pay over to the C.ntral Pacific all the compeneatlon for government servics which acorued on the non-subsldiz.d por- tlons ¢f the road. This practice, how- ever, was suspended In January, 1884, until congross should take some actlon. No actlon was taken, and meantime about $000,000 cf earnings on the lines not subsldizsd had accnmulated. It was for thls money that Huntlogton not long ago made application, but Me. Maynard now recommends that tormer orders be revoked, and this money be covered into the tressury and applied in accordance with the Thurman act, He holds that this act relates to all the earnings of the company in the gov- erament servics, and that the whole amount due it should be withheld, one- half to be applied to the psyment ¢f sec- cruod Intorest, and the other half placed to the credit of the sinking fund for tho liquidatlon of the debt of the rallroad company. This is perfectly fair, as the company lores no money whatever. Iis debts will bo reduced, baut this Mr Huntlogten cbjects to, He does not wont the company to pay lts deb!s, as 1t is his plan to centinue to eap tho life cub of the ctubsidized portlon and finaily abandon it for the government to take in contideration cf tho debts, DMeantime he continuces t> build wp the unsubsl- dieed lines with the life-blcod sapped from the parent c'mpsvy. When the C:nteal Pacific wes origlnally ballt the line was mado 28 long ae pozeiblo by re- markable curves and Cetours, In order to got a larger lend grsnt snd subeidy. Theso curves and detours baving served theie purpoee, the read hae been straight. ened, and In this way kas departed ma- terlally from tho subsid zed route. Mr. Huatington now claims that the govern— ment has no right to retaln tho carnings of government eervice on the non-sabai- dizad rectlors. Fcllowlrg op this pol- ley, traffic has been diverted from the sub:idiz:d line to the non-sabeidlzad roads which have been bullt with Ceutral Paclfic money during the last few years. The ultimate intention of the schemers, whose chlef is Huntington, is to render ths Central Paclfic worthless, and to let the governmnnt collect its twenty-five miitions of debt with intercst. Mr. Huntlngton, however, has been glven to understand, through thesecond comptreller's declelon, that his little gome will not work, and that the pablic servics earnings of the whole road muat bo applicd to the payment cf the debt due the government, even if i be en- tirely recoustructed. The attitade of Huntlngton Is slmpiy that of an em- ploye idsbted to his employer, and who refuses to allow any porilon of his earnings to bo applied on his debt. AN IMPORTANT INVENTION ‘We notice In a recent dispatch from New York tho statement that ‘‘a methed of produclng ozone in {litmitable quanti- tles Is rovealed to the world by Dr. George K. Shrady, the physiclan who figured as one of Gen. Grant's attend- anis,” The process, however, as tic same dlspatch Infcrms us, s the inven- tion of Dr. Andrew H, Smith, a fellow practiclcner, and he and Shrady in obs- dlence to the athical rale of tke profession to iwpart all diecoverlss to the publie, ic- stead of patenting or secr:uing them, will dlsclose the matter fully at tho forth- comirg Internationsl medieal congrese. Meontime an anxlous world will have to walt and wonder. We have often heard - f ozno, but very few know exactly what it is or what it is good for, It hes gen- erally been supposed that 1% is an sgent possessing remarkable Lfc-giving pzoper- tles, and that any Fpot prsseesing 07700 must ba ths p'ace of all others for the recuperation of heslth, Hence we baveceen oczne ex- tensively edvertlzed fn connection with cummer resorts snd suburban residence towns, We have been Investigaticg the cubject of ozone, and #o far o8 we have been sblo to learn “‘It is & gascous eut- ttance, the true nators of which Is not fully understocd.” Faraday, we are tolé, consldered czone one of the forms of oxygen and Identical with the med!- cinal quallty in clectricity, De|Smith has constrocted an czsze-produclog mi- chine, and thisls what he and Shrady prepose to prescnt to a tufferiag worll.

The czone-producer is described as ful- lowe: The apparatus contists of a box filled wilk greacefree cotton fibre, through which an electric curront Is passed between the prima cenductors of a static machine, Alarge eur- face of air is thus exposed to electrical action, and a correspondiog amount of czone is pro- duced, To breathe this through an izbaler makes one cough at oxce, and if long contin- ued would caute bronchisl ixflammation, but by turpiog the output of ozono isto & room, wonderful reenlts—eo the devtors think—may b effected in & curative sod “cxhiliatory(?)" way, Jules Verne hae, In one of hls storfes ridiculed ke iden cf czone baving the power to Invigorate sud erengthen those who broathe It, but numerous phy- sicisus and scientlsts have long consld- ered the eubject In o eerions way.

It msy be that the eminent npsmos of Smith and Shrady es endorsers of ozone will caure Dr. Draper to modlfy his opin- fous. Ho malntaics that czone in the atmosphers creates pneumonia and he produces riatlstios to proveit. The New York Tribune, ia commenting on D por's attltude on the czine question, e His figures cover only & faw years and ap- ply merely to New York city; but they are so suggestive of some conneclion between this disease and ozone that the matter ought to be looked fnto. Dr, Draper appears to think that ozone iy simply a destructive form of oxyg'n whish is capable of prodacing inflam- mation of the substance of the lungs, thereby causing their engorgement with blood not properly arterialised. If this be so, a great many medisal theories will have to be revised, and the sunmer landlords will have to cover somo other a'traction instead of an orone -laden atmoaphera, 1t woul 1 seem that this is a case whero doctors dlssgres. 1t Dzsper Is correct, ther the Smith-Shrady meachine will simply be a pneumonia producer, and ought to bo smached by the international medlcal congroze. may be takea But it was snnouacement in miad the borne THE FOOD QUESTION. O.naha is losated In the heart of the cattle-raliing reglon, and she has exten- sive otocky arda and slaughter housen, yet her eoltizens find 1t difficult to get the best meats or good meats at cheap prices. ihs buichers’ stock is by no means of the best quality, although our butchers bavo abundant opportunily of selecting from choice cattle. The hotels and first- claes restaurants aro supplled with ten- derloins from Chleag>, The fact that Omaha eenda hor beet meats to other markets without reserving a suflisient supply for the locil Zemand reminds ono very much of the farmer who sells hls calves and poultry, bls eggs end butter, and lives on skim-milk, eow-bel'y and hard tack the yesr round. DMeats in Omaha ought to bo o grant deal cheaper than they are at present. The eamo is truo of batter, ezgs and other focd pro- duots, which are raised In the greatest abundancs in th!s stato. That the cost of living should be greatly reduted Is of the utmostim- portancs to Omnzha, which never can be- como a great manufzcturing cliy until it is done. Rents ara bigh, and they can- not be lowered until we bulld more houses end make suburban property easi- 1y acceesible to the clty, This will prot- sbly be dono in the dus courss of time. But the chezpening of food products can be accomplished in the near future by the establishment of market houses. This public enterprire has been thor- oughly agitated, but owing to varlous rozsons it has temporarily besn glven s rest. Wo belleve, however, that next year ono or more market houses will be built and operated. There Is scme op- position to this system, es there lato every pudlic enterprise. It is trus that the marke¢ housa system will in- terfere somewhst with the bual nezs and profits of the small dealers, who are scatterad all over the olty, and they naturally oppose a market houre. The coneumere, however, aro almoet & unit In favor of the market system. If we succeed in catiing down the cost of living, we shall rapldly Inc:ease our pop- ulation. There {8 no good reason why Omaha ehould not be a cheaper place for laborlog men and mechanles to llve in than the eattern cliles, They ought to live better here and for less money than {n almost any clty in the country, When Omsha takes advanteges of all the oppor- (unities within hor reach of making her- solf a place ia which living fs chesp she will then become & great manufacturing and indus'rlal center, aud not before.

Cholers, debillty, indigestion and other ills aredue to the hens being too fat when confined. I: has been accepted that in order to keop poultry right i2 large numbars they muet be divided into separate familles in different yerds. But on farms whera a few only sre kept tho hens are compelled to work ond hunt their food, thereby keeping themselves ia good condition, while in coufinement {t 1s different. A fatben will lay but fow eggs, and many of the oggs wiil bs dcformed, double- yelked or scft shelled. The eges from £fat hens do not hatch well, and if chisks, by accident, come from them, they sre weak and sickly. Thia rule applies toall classes of stock, The fersalos should vevor be too fat. It ls not necessary to allow esch family of hens a range, bu: to s0 feed them an to compel them to take plenty of cxcre'ss by sorstohing for all they recelve.
