STANDARD OIL COMPANY
(Incorporated)
NEW YORK. June 26.-That buy
ers of alcoholic beverages as well a
sellers of them be compelled to take
out licences is the proposition which
Geo W. Culnia, an architect with ot
fice in New Work has embodied in an
ordinance which he has presented for
adoption in his home town of Mon-
teclair, N. J., near here. Under the
proposed ordinance every purchaser
of a drink must be supplied with lic
ense and a metal badge. Should a
liquor dealer sell to a man not thus
tagged he would be rendered liable
to prosecution with the revocation of
the selling license as a penalty. The
ordinance does not say how the tag
shall be worn, the idea being pre
sumably to give the wearer the liber
ty to follow their own fancies in this
respect.
TO EXTERMINATE RATS
Health Commissioner Will Begin
Crusade In East St Louis.
j
ST. LOUIS. June 26,-Assistant j
Health Commissioner Winn announc
ed last night that Monday he will be
gin a crusade which he expects will
exterminate rats in East St. Louis.
He has discovered a new virus,
which he expects will -eradicate the
pest. Rats from severel parts of the
city will be innoculated with the virus
and if his theory works, he says', with
in a few months, the rodents will be
unknown in the city.
The plan which Dr. Winn will try
is to innoculate several live rats with
the virus .in a similar manner that a
person is vaccinated. He will scrape
a leer of the rodent and inject serum.
The virus will cause the rodent to be
come very sick and get a high fever.
The fever will cause him to seek fresh
air and thus prevent him from dying
in' his hole. The disease which is
produced by the scrum is highly con
tagious to rats. The experiment
which the physician has made show
that the odor emanating from a pa
tient attracts other rodents and they
in turn become affected with the mal
ady. The rat dies, however, practic
ally without pain, so far any body
save a fellow rat can tell.

when, to the horror of the thousands !

of which any man hat lived to tell the
story. i
lint It Is lu the history of ballooning
that one encounters the most remark
able cases of sensational drops from
the clouds. When Mr. Wise, famous
aeronaut of the early nineteenth cen
tury, was once making tu tscent hit
balloon exploded nt an altitude of 13,-
000 feet and Is-gnn to drop swiftly to'
tho earth, more than a couple of
miles Mow. "The descent at first was
rapid," Mr. Wise w rites, "aud accom
panied by a fearful uiosulng noisy
caused by air rushing through tho net
work and the gas escaping from above.
In another moment I felt a slight shock,
and, looking up to see what caused It,
1 discovered that tho balloon wat cant
ing over, being nicely doubled In, the
lower half Into the upper."
The balloon had, lu fact, formed It
self Into a parachute ond, oscillating
wildly, continued Its descent until it
struck tho earth violently, throwing
the aeronaut ten yards out of the car.
"The car had turned bottom upward,
and there I stood." says Mr. Wise,

spiration rolling down my forehead in

People of all sorts weigh tbeinalircs
on the penny In tho slot machines
found vfldely distributed In public
places, but never before had this man,
anyway, seen anybody weigh on one
of them anything but himself or her
self as this weigher, n woman, did In
a subway station.
She came In carrying lu one band a
muff aud in the other a box of polished
oak that was narrow nnd proportion
ately high and maybe a foot in length.
That the box was heavy was shown
by the fact that the leather handle
had been stretched somewhat by Its
weight. '
And apparently Its present carrier
had found It heavy nnd was curious
about lu weight, for now she set the
box on the platform of one of thoso
weighing machines and dropped a pen
ny In the slot. It weighed ten pounds,
certainly a heavy box to carry. That
was all she wanted to know-4Idn't
weigh herself. She Just picked the box
up again, this time with a smile, and
went aboard the train. New York
