A Prospector's Prayer.

Thou dark, occult and mystified
monstrosity Of geology, that present
eth us with the premonitory symp-
toms of an invincible, subterra-
neously hidden deposit of argentifer-
ious, auriferous goal-unbutton thy
overcoat that we may behold the
profundity of thy whereabouts. Re-
lieye thy frail pursuers from ignomin-
GUS toll and struggle. Give us this
day another big pot OF beans and
lead us not into the temptation OF
chaotic labor, but deliver us from
mendicancy, and crown US with glori-
fed success, for thine is the aim, the
cash, the glory. the want. and need Of
all p~rospectors, for ever and ever

Organized Labor Against Reid.

In 1888 the New York Tribune,
owned and conducted then as now by
Whitelaw Reid, would not recognize
Union printers and in a communica-
ton to Typographical Union No. 9, Of
New York city, Mr.. Reid said:
81 would rather see Mr.. Blaine sunk
under an avalanche OF votes than per-
init the Tribune Office to be dictated to
by any labor organization"
Last November the Tribune sup
ported j. Sloat Fassett for Governor
OF New York and it was alleged that
because it did it every Union printer
in New York opposed the Tribune's
choice as they have everybody whose
election it advocates.

It is well known that the photo
graphic camera is keener in distin-
gushing things than the human eye.
A photographer took a picture Of a
women who appeared TO be in good
health and whose skin seemed per-
fectly normal to the eyes Of those
who met her. But in the photo
graphic negative there we're a lot Of
queer spots OF freckles upon the face
which the photographer could not ac-
count for. They were not due to any
process in taking the picture, and they
did not appear to to be in the %sitter's
face, but in twenty-four hours the
woman came down with smallpox,
and it turned out that the camera had
detected the spots in the skin, which
no eye could as yet perceive. 1t has
been said that all the vices OF ones
ancestors are revealed in the photo
graph.

heart itself. And these ancient wor-

gold was the metal chosen for the ring.

"THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN LIMIT
ED" AND "THE BIG s."
Two Grand Trains Daily Between the
Worlds Fair City and the Foothills.
One Night Out, or One Day Out. Take
Your Choice. Business Demands it,
and the People Must Have it.

The popularity of "rhe Great Rock Island
Route" as a Colorado line-it having long
time since taken first place as the peoples
favOrite between the Lakes and the Noun
tains-has compelled the management to in
crease its present splendid service by the
addition of a train that is one night on the
road from Chicago to Denver, Colorado
Springs or Pueblo. This train will be
known as the "ROcky Mountain Limited"
and will be put in service May first. Leaves
Chicago daily at 10:45 a. M, arriving at
above cities in the afternoon of the next
day. earlier than any of its competitors.
Especial equipment has beed built for this
train, with the view of making it limited
in every sense of the word, and best of all,
there will be no extra charge. The route of
this exceedingly fast train is by the Rock
Island Short Line, and few of the large
cities through which it passes, are Daven-
port, Des Moines, Council Bluffs. Omaha,
Lincoln, Beatrice, Fairbury, Belleville. Phil
lipsburg, Smith Centre, Colby and Good
land. This makes it most desirable route,
and particularly interesting to the traveller.
Another point: The popularity of our din
ing-car service is still on the increase, and
no money spared to make this service what
our patrons always say. ''the best"
Our big 5" will continue as usual, leav-
ing Chicago at 10 p. m, and arriving at
Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo the
second morning, being but one day out,
and this fast and popular train goes through
Omaha.
Our No. II will leave as heretofore at p.
M, arrive at Kansas City at 900 a. m, and
will reach Denver, Colorado Springs and
Pueblo the second morning.
Our Colorado service is made perfect by
this new Rocky Mountain Limited" and
the big s." and gives to the travelling pub

preciate the advantages i'm the time saved
