If Eads' Ship Railway scheme is
such big thing, 1t Is strange that pri-
vate capitalists will not advance any
money to make preliminary survey.
The fact of the matter is capitalists
will not have anything to do with it,
therefore the attempt to get the
Government to shoulder the scheme
smacks strongly of job to raid the
Treasury and divide the Doodle.

There is a man residing near this
town on the line of the railroad who
has taught his dog to bark vociferously
lat every passing train. The impulse
of the firemen is to watch for the
barking dog, and hurl pieces of coal a t
him in passing. The reslt to the
owner is that he has delivered at his
door all the coal he requires for his
own use free of cost, and is now con-
tempIating the opening of a coal yard
for the supply of his neighbors. He
thinks he can compete in price with
the oldest coal dealers.-R0y7e Signol.

What True Merit Will Do

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's Ger
man Syrup within few years has astonished
the world. 1t is without doubt the safest and
best remedy ever discovered for the speedy
and etfectual cure of coughs, colds. ami the
the severest lung troubles. 1t acts on an en-
tirely different principle from the usual pre-
scriptions given by physicians, as it does not
dry up cough and leave the disease still in
the system, but on the contrary removes the
cause of the trouble, heals the parts affected
and leaves them in a purely healthy condi-
tiou. A bottle kept in the house for use
when these diseases make their appearance,
will save doctors bills and long spell OF
serious illness. A trial will convince YOU OF
these facts. 1t is positively sold by all drug
gists and general dealers in the land. Price

THE FEENEY BOY.
The Mother stiiI Living-The Boy Still
at Large.

Mrs Mary Feeney, of Portland who was
shot Wednesday afternoon, accidentally or
otherwise. by her l5-year-old son Patrick,
was quite comfortable Thursday eveniog'and
rho prospects for her recovery are favorable.
The officers made diligent search all day
Thursday after Patrick, but were unab to
get their hands on him. They heard from
him from various sources, and II IL known
that he is somewhere in the city.
OF course no criminal action can be nam
famed against the boy if the mother sticks to
har story that the shooting was accidental on
the mart OF her son. But Patrick Is wanted
at the Reform School whence he escaped last
lime If all accounts of him are true, ne IS
a bad youth, and even if the shooting OF his
mother was accidental it would be better Tor
the community to have him under close
watch. Portland Press, Oct. Isf.
