RAILWAY NOTES.

TOPEKA, Kan. March 23-The board OF
railroad commissioners this morning re-
quested Governor Humphrey to institute
mandamus proceedings against the Union
Pacific railroad company, to enforce the
order of May 26, 1891, calling for additional
train service on the Lincoln branch OF that
road. Shortly after this order had been
made the I uion Pacific increased It's serV-
ice, but subsequently removed the train.
A new complaint was then filed A de-
cision of the supreme court in similar
complaint against the Kansas Central
road places the commissioners in an en-
barassing position. Ia the latter case II
was decided that in the matter OF physical
condition and train service of the road the
commissioners orders were advisory only,
as there was no statutory provision for
enforcing them. The commissioners, in
passing on the new complaint, say that, n
view of this decision, all that they are JUS
titled in doing is to lay the matter before
the governor and call upon Linn to lnstl-
tute proceedings.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 23.-President
Marvel of the Santa Fe road has sent n
communication TO the president Of the
Western Traffic association, giving notice
that on June 15 1892. the Santa Fe road
Will establish a rate on second class busl-
ness to the Pacific coast as follows: From
Chicago and common points. S34 30; from
Mississippi river points, $40 so; from Mis-
souri, river points. S14.30.
CHICAGO, March 23.-According to ad-
vices received today compact has been
entered into by the Boston and Albany,
the Vanderbilt lines, the Chicago and
Northwestern and the Union Pacific for
the payment of a commission of $40 on
every flrst-class ticket sold from Boston to
Pacific coast points. This introduces a
fresh complication into the Iransconti-
mental commission question, which is
already in such a snarl that it was found
necessary TO turn the whole matter over to
the advisory board of the western traffic
association for adjustment. If the report
prove true, it will have the effect of cut
ting the rate even below the basis which
the Atchison has announced its intention
of adopting on June l next.
The next meeting of the advisory board
of the Western Traffic association will be
held here on April Il. This is expected to
be by far the most important meeting that
has been held since the organization be-
gan, and there are some people who think
It will be the last. The Missouri Pacific's
demand for the Burlington's scalp, the
Atchison's application for reduction In
second-class Gfanscontinental rates, and
matters OF similar character, have caused
so much friction that harmonious ad
Iustment of all the differences seems to be
almost impossible.

WOMEN At TRIALS.
WHY LADIES FLOCK TO COURT.
A Clear Definition of the Causes Which
Make Women So Susceptible
to Emotion.

The New York Sun has An able editorial
in which it seeks to show why some
women love to attend sensational or
murder irials 1t says: women are not
stirred at all by many OF the occurrences
which agitate men. but when case in-
vOlving life and death comes up. tragic
case, and more especially when 1t has
about it mystery in which woman Is
concerned. and woman of the more renn-
ed society they follow its course with an
intensity of interest greater than men IeeI.
1t is akin to the fascination which nctlc-
tious tragedy on the stage has for women,
and for women more than men. l6 Is a
luxury for many good women 20 have their
tenderest feelings of sympathy aroused
They enjoy going to funerals and wlplug
away tears shed in unison with those or
sorrowing relatives Inc plays tnat
wiring the heart are more attractive for
them than the comedies which provoke
merriment. They delight i'll having their
feelings reused to the highest pitch.
This is undoubtedly true. but there is
cause far back of all this. 1t is cause
which has its origin in the life and condl-
ton of the women themselves. Most wo-
men are. weak and not N good health
When a woman is sickly, her feelings are
quickly aroused and she suffers keenly.
Thus is the real actual cause of 1t all. Wo-
men should not suffer. They are designed
yet, too often, it is continual suffering,
when there is relief Read the experience
of IL New York lady.
Mrs, J. f. Beale. residing at 1863 Lexing-
ton avenue says: About six years ago
suffered from a severe attack of peri5oni-
lis and general kidney troubles. Despite
the attendance of skilled physicians my
ailments increased. | finally decided to
try Warmers Safe Cure and purchased a
bottle This step was taken upon the ad-
vice of several friends who had been bene-
flied by its use. At this time the ply
sicians stated that another attack of my
malady would most assuredly prove fatal.
| took four bottles of he safe Cure, which
entirely cured me. Whenever l feel as
though any of the symptoms were return
ing | take a dose and Immediately feel
better | now feel as well as in my girl
hood and it is entirely due to this
remedy.
Is this An isolated experience? By no
means. 1t is precisely what hundreds or
other ladies have found true in their eX-
perience. 1t shows that if women con-
rinue to suffer, if the trials of life weigh
them down when they should be joyful,
they have themselves only to blame.
There is a means of relief, of restoration.
Ii is pure, it is safe, it is a woman's best
friend. By its use she can be enabled to
Withstand the ills of life and secure both
health and happiness.
