The Southern Pacific has identi'
fed itself with New Orleans since it
reached here. Selecting this city
as its terminus and shipping point
to Europe, it has done everything to
assist in the prosperity and CONNER.
cial development of the city. Its
latest act in this matter shows this.
The new consolidated line is divided
into two systems OF sections-the
Pacific system, from San Francisco
to Ell Paso, Texas; the Atlantic sys-
tenn, from FL Paso to New Orleans.
The selection as general manager of
the latter of Mr.. A. G. Hutchinson,
who has been so long identified with
New Orleans and its railroads, is a
proof that the consolidation is in the
interest of this city, and that, the
newly created company will work to
its advantage; the selection is an
eminently wise one in every respect,
and a deserved compliment to MIR.

WHY WOMEN DO NOT MARTY

s'They talk of not being willingto marry

wife. They are learning something in
the way of profession, something that
will interest them as well as support
them, two roles in which husbands just
now fail. The truth is, we are all scared
away from any desire to marry by seeing
how wretched those who do marry are.
Where would we look for husbandsY

that school OF men has vanished from the

expressed the convictions of large rep
resentatiOn of young women. Their lack
of interest in marriage Is not due to the
larger activities which continually open
before women but to the unattractive, UNI
reliable material in the way of husbands.
Women are women, and would love and
marry as readily to-day as when the
earth was new if they came in contact

WOMEN WHO Run FoK oEFl0G.
How the Ladies Enjoy Political
Equality in the Far Northwest.

How the Ladies ENJOY FoiitlSoi
Equality I'm the Far Northwest.
From tho Pittsbuag Commercial- Gasette.
When the girls Of Montana turn their
attention to politics, not as voters, but as
candidates, look out for hair and real
red-hot time. At the last local elections
in Montana there were four Richmonds in
the field These four ladies were running
for County superintendent Of Public In
struction, and, like the other sex, ran on
the straightout political tickets, either as
Republicans, Democrats, or lndepen-
dents. That canvass, when the girls took
the stump against their male competitors,
WAS one Of the most amusing things
that ever happened in this or any other
country.
Miss Clark, IN Lewis and Clarke coun-
ty, is not only a talented young lady, bui
also All expert politician. BY the votes OF
the boys she got there all right, and left
her antagonist far in the rear, dazed and
/ defeated candidate.
In Meagher county two girls were pitted
against each other, and the ignt for the
position was quite lively. Miss Darcy
was the candidate Of the Democrats
while Miss Nichols mustered with the
| Republican boys. In the fight broom
sticks. hairpins, bustles, etc, were the
weapons used, and for awhile it was be-
| yond the prophecy of man to foretel
/ which destructive weapon would be the
most formidable and death dealing. II
| WAS hard To tell which one Of the young
/ ladies' was the handsOmest, but at dis
lance every body presumed that both We're
| lovely. Well, everybody voted, as every
| body should, and Miss Darcy won tht
/ day, but her defeated rival claimed, and
| Justly, too, that her defeat reflected in II,
way personally upon herself as Meaghel
1 county was, and always had been, Demo
cratic.
In Gallatin county Miss Hamilton an
/ nOunced herself as an independent can
didate. One Of the Gallatin county pa
| pers, the organ and hacker Of Miss Ham
! ilton, came out a day or two before the
/ election as follows:
"HamiltOn enters the field AGAINST the
odds of regular party nominations. Ham
/ iltoR has got sand, and she will stay un
/ til the polls are closed. Hamilton should
/ be elected. She says she isn't afraid o
/ road agents, and that education is he
/ forte; also, that 1t would afford her pleas
ure TO hop around from one country
/ school-house to another in the perform
ance of her duty. The men OF Gallatir
/ are COMPOUNDED mean if they don't ruI
/ HAM ltOn in, etc"
Nevertheless, Hamilton was defeated
and Gallatiu county has q male Superln

| above goes to show what an eNcelleu
/ country this is for young men and maid
/ ems, or old men and children, especially
for the madens.

SLAVES OF QUININE.
The Growing Abuse Of that Drug as Re
ported by an Up town Apothecary.

From tho Mean York Sun.
"Hsve you noticed the growing use Of
quinine?" druggist in the vicinity of the
Fifth Avenue hotel asked last night. Al
the same moment he bowed and smiled to
tall, red-whiskered man who strolled in
just watch this customer be said.
The man was very thin and cadaverous
looking. Without saying word be
walked up TO the soda fountain, and the
boy drew out a pill box, poured three pills
into the palm OF the customers hand, set
glass OF mineral water in front OF him,
and turned to the next customer. The
tall man swallowed the pills, drank the
water. turned on his heel, and stalked
away with another pleasant nod to the
proprietor.
That costs him 81 40 week." said the
proprietor, land before long it will kill
him. He started to take one five-grain
pill every night about six months ago; he
now takes 10 grains night before he goes
home, so that it will brace him up for mis-
dinner. Within amOnth ne will be taking
20 grains a night. OF course he takes IL
at home besides what he gets here. I've
gone out OF my way three or four times to
explain to him that he had a good deal
better drink rum, even If he Is deacon in
a church. but his answer is a simple one /;

tried stopping it once, and caved in;
hence he wants to know why he should
stop. You can't combat such reasoning
as that.''
"Have you many such regular custom
ers?7
Well, to be accurate, we have only
three men who come in every day and pay
at the end of the week, but there are
many others who take their quinine as
regularly as most drinking folks take
their whisky. 1t is certainly great temp
tation to weakly organized and frail peO-
pie. All they have TO do is to swallow a
pill or two, ana they feel robust wide
awake and cheerful. The practice grows
on them continually, and it seems TO be

constantly growing. good proportion
| Of the custom comes from women who

and who, instead Of buying nutritious

OF porter or ale, resort TO the insidious
