The experiments made in this coun
try with what has come to be known
as 'Dr. Koch's Consumption Core,"
says the Pittsburg Post, are in exact ac
cord with reports of the experiments
made in Berlin. There have been two
deaths in this country of patients under
this treatment, and there have been
seven or eight In Berlin. Ia these
caes the disease bad extended beyond
the eradicative Dower of the remedy.
The lymph, according to Dr. Loomis of
New York, who has just returned from
Berlin, Is probably the most valuable
thing in the world. Every drop of
flald is worth 11,300, and ft phial con
taining sixty drops would have an act
ual commerc'al value of $78,000. This
calculation is based on the assumption
that a drop of tha lymph, when diluted,
will furnish 130 injections, and every
Injection will be worth 110 to the phy
sician making it. A drop of the liquid
is worth three times as much as a fine
diamond the same size. The McKin
iey bill taxes it. as an reclassified med
ical compound. 35 per cent ad valorem.
It Is stated that a serious attempt to
manufacture tinpiate in this country
says the New York Star will be made
by a Chicago concern lbat is already in
the business in a email way. The
manuf acturerslclalm what Is done by
hand in Wales can be done by machin
ery here, and thus the cost of produc
tion be reduced to an amalzing extent.
One machine used by this firm will, It
is said, do the work of fifty women.
After a time, if It shall be demonstra
ted that by machinery In this country
tinpiate can be made cheaper than by
hand In Wales, we shall be called upon
to admire this magnificent demonstra
tion of the beneficence of the high-tariff
taxation on tin. We shall be told that
the tariff, not the mc chines, enabled
this industry to be established. All the
same the people will be compelled to
pay increased prices for their tinware,
not, indeed, that high wages may be
paid to a few workmen In tin, but that
the machines may be kept going and
their owners profited.

Is proposed to invest In ships for tray el

weeks have been completed. The ship
will start from Mt. Carmel, and the In

and from there to New York. Penning

propose to make the trip, taking with
them half a dozen newspaper represent

wish to go. The ship is ?00 feet long
and has cabins made of aluminum.
The Sew Bead Law.
Mr. L. E. Stofiel ot the Pittsburg
Dtspatch, writes to Lis paper the fol
lowing concerning the work of the
road commission :
The bill submitted by the committee
to the commission for ratification or
amendment will provide for a plan like
this : In every township three road
commissioners shall be elected by the
people. They will bold relatively the
same position to the people as the
School Directors, honorary rather than
political or pecuniary. These commis
sioners will appoint road masters, as
many as they think fit. to act as borne
over the persons working on the roads.
The master will be paid wages for each
day be works, and be will Le held
strictly accountable for the duty as
signed him.
It, will be required that farmers shall
notify the commissioners not later than
April 15 of each year whether they de-.
sire to work out the amount of tbelr
road tax. If so, the road masters will
notify them individually of the exact
day and place where they must report
for work. If they are not there at the
appointed time the master must prompt
ly hire somebody else and nolifiy the
commissioners, who will collect the
full cash tsx from the absentee. Or
they will do the same if he does work
yet does not perform the work in a
proper manner.
In the foregoing provisions the com
mittee believes it has practically abol
ished the system of "working out
taxes," or at least brought it within
proper control. Under the present ar
rangement a farmer works out bis tax
in many communities just wbeu and
where he chooses, lie takes the time
In which be has nothing on bis farm to
do. Hm selects the easiest parts of
roads to repair. He invariably works
nnder a road supervisor who was elect
ed through his influence, is afraid to In
sist upon honest toil and sits down
with the farmer in the general traffic of
fence corner narratives.
All is changed by the system pro
posed. Work will now be doae on the
roads in the best season for road work.
The farmer will be compelled to drop
bis farm work at once and report for
toad work jast like a laborer. If be
does not do so promptly, be loses the
privilege. The result of this will be
that more farmers will pay the tax than
work it, because they cannot leave their
farms at certain times. Where they
do work out taxes, they will be nnder a
boss, who Is simply paid so much per
day for conscientious bossing, and wbo
Is liable to be bounced on the discovery
of any bad patch of road by the com
missioners, wbo appoints blm as a
school board appoints and dismisses ft
teacher.
The matter of local taxes and State
aid is handled In this way. A treasurer
wbo may be either one oi the road
commi8sioneis or a person appointed by
them In each township, shall receive
all taxes levied for roads, and set aside
a certain portion ot them each year for
permanent improvements of the roads
in that township. The road commis
sioners shall decide In each township
joet what sort of material will make a
permanent road there.
When it appears that a township baa
built a mile of permanently Improved
road with some form of stone or gravel
foundation and covering which shall be
approved by the county engineer, then
the county must build an additional
mile of permanent road In the township
and the State build a third mile. The
State need not wait for the county, but
the county and State stand pledged for
two miles to every one mile of the town
ship's ewn building. The County Corn
missioners will grant a warrant on the
County Treasurer to the township offi
cers to build the second mile.
In this way the Statu aid Is simply
put up as an inducement and encour
agement to permanent road improve
ment among the farmers tbemselyes.
and yet it is gtven in a most substantial
way. The money is only appropriated
where good roads have been made. If
none are made then the money will not
go rapidly. At the same time the road
building itself is left in the hands of the
township people, not ft State political
machine.
The road commission fixes no definite
amount of a general read appropria
tion. The members believe that under
the new revenue bill there will be plen
ty of money in the State Treasury for
this laudible object. Somebody has
already asked : Why could not the
State's surplus, instead of lying all over
the State In a banking, and politi
cal sinking fund be used for the nu
cleus ot a road building fund T"

Confidence Returning.
At last the panie has got out of
things. Business In Wall street Is
nearly back to a normal basis. Money
on call is easy, gold Is on tbe way here,
and time moony has again put in an ap
pearance. Round amounts are offered
at 6 per cent., and very soon there will
be a pressure to lend at less than that.
Whether now tbe s ock market goes
up or gos down, it will be from other
causes than financial fright. As con
fidence reiurue, money ia found to be
abundant, because the operation of tbis
change In the public mind is twofold
It releases tbe cash which bad fl-d to
tbe safe deposit boxes, and It again
gives value to those substitutes for
cash which depend upon credits. Tbe
latter are the chief circulating medium,
as proved r-y tbe inquiry made by tbe
Treasury Department, aud eet forth in
the tecent report ot tbe Controller of
the Currency. Actual returns msde
to tbe department by 3500 banks showed
that on a given day of the total of their
transactions less than 10 per cent, was
done in actual money, the remainder
was in representatives of it, as checks,
drafts, bills of exchange, certificates of
deposit and other evidences of credit, of
which the working yalue shrinks enor

Tbe Vanishing Scare.
The timid capitalists wbo bave been
tying up money, according to the cal
culation of Mr. Jay Gould, bave taken
out of active use and circulation about
1100,000,000. But there is no panic ia
sight, and no prospect of panic. The
stringency, wholly created by tbe tear
ot stringency, baa brought about heavy
Importations of gold, and, now that
money is Lecoming easier, the boarders
are beginning to lend again. Money
on call is not difficult to obtain, and a
demand is springing up for good com
mercial paper. It will not be many
days before tbe tables will beturned.and
instead of a pressure to borrow there
will be ft pressure to lend.
There is hardly a doubt that congress

Besides tbis, there are excellent pros
