OF the lease by that company of the lines
OF the Chicago, st. Panl and Kansas City,
the articles of the Sioux City,
Chicago and Baltimore were filed
at Sioux City. Both companies
were organized for the same individual
object. The future use of the Chicago and
Great Western except that it contemplates
the construction of a line to Omaha, is not
generally known, but the Sioux CITY con-
cern Is not at all backward about stating
its object. 1t is announced that il will

pluck and perseverance that she showed at
this crisis were worthy of an American
girl. She besieged managers in search of
an engagement for long time without
success. But she didn't propose to let
little thing like that discourage her IF
she couldn't get what she wanted she
would take what she could get So she
applied for and obtaiped place in the
chorus at the Savoy theater, London,
where Gilbert and Sullivan's comic operas
were produced. .st
In being willing to be humble when she
couldn't be proud she laid the foundation
of her present big success, for in very
short time her work in that chorus did
what her persistent haunting of managers
dens had failed to do. 1t won for her a
small part in one of the operas She had
done her level best in the chorus, and she
did her level best in the small part. That
best was so good that she was given large
part in a little while, and then, almost be
fore she knew it, she was sent to America
as the prima donna of one of the Gilbert
and Sullivan opera companies. When that
opera was withdrawn she was sent over
with another and another until she had
sung the leading roles of nearly all of those
talented gentlemen's operas in Yankee
land. She sang them veil, too, and made
many friends here. Between times she
went TO Germany and sang in German,
and to France and sang in French.
Mr.. Gilbert was much impressed by her
vocal powers, and thought, too, that she
could act if she had a chance-so when he
conceived the part Of Nita, which calls
more for acting than for singing, he al
once offered it to Miss Jenoure She ac-
cepted the offer and has made the hit of
her life.
1t is a very strange part, and among other
things requires Miss Jenoure to play the
role Of a a-nickel-in-the-slot machine
In the course OF the operas fun the char
acters drink a magic draft which a;
once transforms them into what they are
pretending to be. Miss Jenoure is pre-
tending to be a waxwork figure Of Opheha,
and the result is almost painfully funny
Her makeup. her walk and her voice are
precisely what might be expected Of an au
tomato doll. and her audiences are conse
quently Eappy and approving. It may be |
unnecessary 10 add that she is happy too

GRAIN RATE MANIPULATION.

KANSAS CITY, March 25-If the reports
in circulation be true, Kansas City and
ST. Louis are getting left on the grain
shipments from the western country and
Chicago grain men are doing the business,
through being favored by the railroads in
the matter of east-bound rates. A report
was started here that Chicago dealers
were outbidding all others on grain in
Nebraska and some portions of Kansas
and the shipments are being rushed
through or around Kansas City and St.
Louis by way of Omaha and Chicago TO
New York. According to the report, the
Chicago buyers are enjoying the same
rate as is given to st. Louis on western
grain, which would mean a cut of cents
per 100 pounds, as that amount is sup
posed to cover the differential existing IN
favor of st. Louis. From Chicago to New
York it is claimed the rate has been cut
from 25 TO 20 cents, which gives the Chi
cago buyer an advantage of 10 cents a hun
dred in freight charges. Buyers who have
just returned from the Nebraska territory
confirm the reports of cut rates in favor OF
Chicago and say that the Kansas City and
st. Louis bids are not considered where
bid from Chicago is made. The western
buyers are kicking at the condition of
affairs and demand that the differential be
restored by the western roads.

SHELBYvILZE, March 25-The managers
of Congressman w. S. Holman's political
destinies claim that he is on a clear road
to the nomination for presidency. The
plan is To nominate Holman for congress
on April T., and later present his name to
the state convention for governor, and if
he should get that nomination. let him de-
cline it and permit the central committee
to fill the vacancy. This boom will bring
Holman prominently before the people,
and in case the nomination for president t
comes west, Holman will claim the pres
tige and his friends will urge his nomina-
tion. The delegation from Indiana will
be for Isaac 2. Gray, but Holman's s friends
claim that his popularity outside the state
will force Indiana to support him after il
becomes evident that he stands a show of
getting the nomination.

uric ACID.
WHAT 1t Is AND HOW IT FORMS.
A Clear Description of This Most Subtle
Enemy of Modern American Life
What Prominent Professor Says.

well known professor connected with
leading medical college, in conversation,
recently made the following wonderful
assertions:
There is probably nothing which has
ever been known in the history of the
world that has caused more real misery to
men and women than that simple and yet
dangerous element called uric acid. This
dangerous substance gets into the blood
OF men and women, and even children.
even before they suspect it, and the havoc
that il works is simply appalling. 1t
causes rheumatism, neuralgia, gout and
pneumonia. 1t is the cause of most colds
and the actual source of nearly every case
of grip.
You ask how this dangerous acid gets
into the bloods Very easily The princi-
pal duty of the kidneys and bladder are to
expel uric acid from the system. They
fail to work very frequently, and instead
of being driven from the system, this pois
onous uric acid goes into the blood. When
once in the blood it ferments, it poisons, it
causes unnumbered diseases and too often
occasions death.
ut must be plain, even to a novice, that
the only way IN which to keep this acid
out of the blood is to keep the kidneys and
bladder IN strong, healthy and Wig
orous condition. This is the whole prob
lem in a nutshell, and the man or woman
who does this is invariably free from uric
acid and the Infinite troubles which it
causes. | have never known Of but one
thing that will in every case drive uric
acid from the system, and that is Warmers
Safe Cure. 1t has been found by the med
zeal profession to be possessed of proper
ties unknown to any discovery of ancient
or modern times. | have known of wom-
en- who have been weak, sallow, run down;
of men who nave been debilitated and
wholly unnerved, who are today pictures
of health and strength, aud they know as
well as | do that the result is due to but
one thing-the great cure Of which have
spoken"
The great truths above stated are as GER
tain as existence, and they reveal the real
cause OF most physical misery of the pres
ent day, and they clearly reveal the way
of escaping from such misery. No man or
woman at the present day should be the
victim Of uric acid poison. That it is very
prevalent is most true, but to permit it 10
get into the system, or, having gotten
there, to remain, is simply folly.
