platform before we started; the same man was
on the field at the time [ was arrested replied
to Hester when he said he wished me to 60 with
him, mo, I'm under Canadian law, now /;
that warrant does not allow you to detain me
here, and I, under protest, refuse to obey you !;
neither your government, or you, sir, have
right to detain me here, and if you do, you
will pay for it."
Atthe conclusion of this sentence, the crowd
in Court made demonstrations Of approval,
which the Court Immediately suppressed.

me on United States warrant, having the
signature of the President of the States writ

the invitation; we got room in the hotel,
with three beds in it; told them if they had
no objection, would 60 to bed, and did so.
Cornwall sat up all night, with the exception
of a few minutes there was good deal Of
whispering between the two, with third
party at the door, but the conversation was
inaudible to me I do not know who the third
party was Hester frequently went out during

CHOW TO GO WEST"

Forty years ago. Illinois was as far West as
most people wished to go, ano journeys were
made in the Legendary prairie Schooner" but
in these days Of Progress aud Improvement,
the word West has come to mean Iowa, Ne
braska, Kansas, Colorado, Calafornia and the
Territories, and the traveller reaches almost auy
point therein by splendied Line Of Railroad.
This Line OF Railroad Is the Burlington
Route, which starts from Chicago by the Chca-
go, Burlington e. Quincy Railroad, and. run
ming through BURLINGTON, reaches Omaha,
Lincoln, Nebraska City, st. Joseph, Atchison,
Leavenworth aud Kansas City, connecting with
the Union Pacific, Kansas Pacific, and other
railroads running from those cities.
People going to Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas,
California, or any point IN the Territories, will
study their own interests by going "By way of
Burlington" for the rates OF that Line are a.
ways as low as any other, and it is the best
Route in the West, therefore you are more sure
