EVERYTHING FIRsT-vLAss.
A Restaurant Window Well worth
Going TO See--A SumpIuous
Bill of Fare.

A very valuable and ancient print in
the British museum portrays Epicurus,
the famous Greek philosopher. who as
sumed pleasure to be the highest good,
standing in front of a restaurant gazing
rspturously upon the rich viands displayed
within. Although many centuries have
elapsed since the time depicted in the old
print yet the custom OF looking in win
dows at tempting eatsbles continues and
at almost at any time a disciple OF Epic
urus can be seen gazing at the windows
of the Saddle Rock restaurant on Seven
teenth street before entering to enjoy some
of the delicacies he has been looking at.
That the sight is worth looking at and that
the most f~astidious can be served to his
satisfaction is made evident when the fol-
lowing list of edibles is mentioned and it
is known that they can be obtained at the
Saddle Rock: From the ocean, blue fish,
Spanish nackeral, sea bass and shad.
From Southern waters, Holsters. crabs
and shr,mps. From Oregon, live brook
trout and eels. From Wyoming waters,
pike, live channel catfish, frogs legs and
brook trout. All kinds of meats and
fresh vegetables are served. Pineapples,
strawberries and ice cream are among the
desserts. The cooking, service and APP
p%ointments are first class. and for a sub
~stantial Sunday dinner, a lunch or a meal
at any time day OF night tie Saddle Rock
has no equal in the city.

doubtedly be changed to Cheyenne in the
near future.

DISGUISED AS A PAuPER.

Immigration Commissioner SChulties
earns some Startling Facts in the
Steerage of AN Ocean Steamship.
NEW YORK, Nov. lS.-Herman J.
Schulties, one Of the special commits
Sionors sent abroad by the treasury de-
partment TO scour Europe in search of
facts regarding the illegal landing of
paupe~s in this country, arrived @mong
the steerage passengers of the Cunard
steamship Servia Monday disguised as
a pauper. Commissioner Schu!ties dis
guised himself in Holland as a Dutch
laborer. ,eeping in emigrant houses
where committees gathered desti-
tute candidates for the American
warehouses, and worming himself
into the system. Whenever he made
any inquiries he found himself batlied
at every turn When he went in dis
guise and actually underwent the
experiences of the emigrants lac
found the facts to be exactly oppo-
site those given to the pub
lie. Everywhere he found evidences
that governments, committees, tusi-
ness houses, powerful steamship lines
We're all joined together in one vast
secret combination, driving over the
ocean whole populations, regardless of
law and dccency or of the result to the
American republic
The commissioner had no difficulty
in securing passage and getting
through Castle Garden without the
consul generals Endorsement He also
collected great deal of evidence
during his trip home in the Storage of
the Servia. He declares some of the
scenes he witnessed were brutal
izing in the extreme, and that
the officers exhibited no interest
in the matter whatever. And great
was his surprise to find his hard work
received more than coldly by the immi-
grafton authorities of New York But
the whole matter will be laid before
the secretary of the treasury, and
probably through him be taken up
by congress for definite and stringent
legislation.

Thousands of Cars Awaiting Handling ON
Roads West of Chicago

BURLINGTON. Ia, Nov. lS.--9he grain
blockade in Chicago has caused Sc
rious condition of things in Iowa and
the west. The worst blockade ever ex-
perienced by railroads west of Chicago
is now on hand. West OF the Missis-
sippi river there are 1000 cars Of oats
and wheat tracked on Che lines of
the Burlington system for lack of
storage capacity in Chicago and motor
power to haul them. OF this 800 cars
stand on Iowa side-trac,ls alone.
Local railroad men think the Chi
cago blockade will be raised by the
middle of the week, but say that the
rush of delayed grain VIII make
things just as bad next week The
freight-car famine is also lending Its
aid to complicate matters The roads
west of the Mississippi have a shortage
of thousands of cars and the amount
is increasing daily. What will be done
when the great corn crop begins to
move is question that is greatly wor-
rying railroad men.
SIOUX FALLS. S. D., Nov. 17.-Three
hundred towns in this state are suffer
ing for want of cars to move the grain
to the markets. kilograms and letters
are pouring in to the railway com
missioners demanding cars, 50 buyers
can ship the grain they have pur-
chased. A special meeting of the com
missioners will be held in Huron to
take decisive action in regard
to the petition of the grain
buyers. The commissioners will
at once visit Minneapolis and St Paul
and call upon the officials of the rail-
way systems to see If some means can
not be secured to alleviate the diff
Guilty Reports from Armour. Hartford,
Spencer, Lennox, Carthage, Baltic, Dell
Rapids, Egan Eureka Wentworth and
a dozen other good grain buyinP points,
declare no cars are on hand nor to be
obtained At Spencer the grain
buyers have filled every vacant
building, elevators, barns, sheds and
stores, and no cars are III sight,
and have temporarily ceased buying
Armour wants twenty-five cars at
once or they viii have to nail the
doors OF their elevators Up. IN the
northern part of the state at a number
of places the grain buyers have nailed
their elevator doors and fastened up
big placard, reading: No more grain
bought until cars are received The
commission estimates the shortage of
cars in the state at $500. Even spare
bedrooms have been utilized in some
cases as storerooms for the wheat.
