Ohio, Indiana and Illinois are prac-
tically dry train states. While pub-
lic sentiment, so-calle, may have
something to do with this growing
policy among the transportation lines,
it is considered that the weightiest
reason impelling the roads to adopt
"dry train" rules is the fact that there
are now so many states where county
licenses are required of the trains
passing through them and that the
aggregate of these is practically pro-
hibited.
The roads named above faced the
alternative presented through the New
Jersey Anti-Saloon Lague of either
taking out a license in every county for
every dining and buffet car operated or
having their waiters and stewards ar-
rested. Fees for a license in every
county made the business prohibitive.
In the state of New York the license
situation is more iavorable. The roads
operating in that state pay an annual
fee of $300 per car and an annual Fed-
eral tax for sellig tobacco of $25 per
car. The New York Central has to
•have such a license on twenty-eight
dining cars and twenty-six buffets.
The Erie, however, has only seven
dining cars, two club cars and six
cafe cars.

Checotah, Okla., Aug. 15.—Individ-
ually and collectively Checotah has
its receiver down. All of the telephone
receivers in town, two hundred in all,
have been clown for .twelve days, and
all efforts of the Pioneer Telephone
Company to get the patrons to hung
them up. pay for the telephones or
answer calls have been of no avail,
Checotah took the receivers down on
the morning of August 1 and they have
been down ever since. From the tent
per of the citizens they will remain
down until the company makes im-
provements satisfactory to the two
hundred subscribers here.
Poor service was the cause of if all.
The people pleaded in vain, s > they
say, with both the company and then
the Corporation Commission lor relief
and got only promises. So they decid-
ed that no telephones were bett-r than
poor service, so every subscriber in
the town signed an agreement to quit
using the telephones August 1. On
that day a collctive notice signed by
the subscribers was served on th,?
company that the patrons would pay
for the telephones no longer and they
could be taken out. The telephones
were left in hut the manager of the
company says they will all be taken
out August 15.
The telephone company offered to
sell the plant to the business men of
thp town and let them run it to suit

Cats and Infantile Paralysis,

Springfield, Mass., Aug. 15.—Cat*
infected with infantile paralysis havn
been discovered by the Springfield
Board of Health, which has reported
the fact to the state authorities. A
number of infected cats will be sent,
o Boston for dissection by experts to
determine whether the dread disease,
which up to the present has baffled
physicians, does not have its primary
origin in cats, the same as bubonic
plague is directly traceable to rats.
Two years ago the infantile paralysis
mortality rate in Springfield on tlM
percentage basis was the largest In th«
country. Heretofore cats have been
excluded from probable sources of
contagion, which has generally bOMt
ascribed to horseflies an mogqnitoes.
