Children Cry for
Pitchers Casto4las
Abraham Lincoln

When leaving his home at Springfield, ILL.,.
to be inaugurated president Of the United
States, made farewell address to his old
friends and neighbors, in which he said,
'NEIGHBoRs GIVE YOUR BOYS A CHANCE"
These words come with rs much force
to-day as they did thirty years ago.
How give them this chance?
Up i'm the Northwest is a great empire
waiting for young, and sturdy fellows to
come and develop il and grow up with
the country" All over this broad land
are the Young fellows, the boys that Lin
coin referred to, seeking to better their con-
dition and get on in life.
Here is their chance!
The country referred to lies along the
Northern Pacific X. X. Here You can find
pretty much anything Won want. In Min
nesota, and in the Red River Valley Of
North Dakota, the finest Of prairie lands
fitted for wheat and grain, or As we'll for
diversified farming. In Western North
Dakota and Montana, are stock ranges
limitless in extent, clothed with the most
nutritious Of grasses.
Ii a fruit farming region is wanted there
is the whole state III Washington To select
from.
As for scenic delights the Northern Pa
ciic Railroad passes through country
unparalleled. In crossing the Rocky, Bit
ter Root. and Cascade Mountains, the
greatest mountain scenery to be seen in the
United States from car windows is found.
The wonderful bad lands, wonderful in
graceful form and glowing color, are a
poem. Lakes Pend d'Oreille and Occur
dAlene, are alone worthy of trans-conti-
mental trip, while they are the fisherman's
Ultima Thule. The ride along Clark's
Fork of the Columbia River is daylight
dream. To cap the climax this is the only
way to reach the far famed Yellowstone
Park.
| To reach and see all this the Northern
Pacific Railroad furnishes trains and serv'
ice of unsurpassed excellence. The most
approved and comfortable Palace Sleeping
cars the best Dining cars that can bs
made; Pullman Tourist cars good for both
first and second class passengers; easy
riding day coaches, with Baggage, Ex
press, and Postal cars all drawn by power
full Baldwin Locomotives, make train HI
for royalty itself.
Those seeking for new homes should tax,

TOOK MORPHINE.
But the Aid of Physician Pre-
vented the Invited Self
Destruction.

An inmate of Main street house
of i'll fame, yIrs. Carrie McCracken,
attempted suicide last night about IL
o'clock by taking dose of morphine.
Other inmates of the house discovered
her condition and notified the police.
DIR. S. Conkright was summoned and
administered an antidOte In time to
save the fallen woman's life.
The McCracken woman first came
prominently before the public some
months ago by appearing in the crimi-
nal court against Joe Hewitt, charg-
ing him with criminally assaulting
her. Hewitt Is now serving sut a two
years sentence tor the crime.
At the trial Mrs. McCracken's char
acter was assailed, but Hewitt's repu-
tatiOn was so unsavory that the sympa-
thies of the public were entirely with
the woman. Since the trial the wo-
man had been living a fast life.'
1t is supposed that an affair Of love
was the cause of the attempted self
destruction.

COOKS WAYS.
One of His Schemes for Pro.
curing Funds UnlawfuIly
From the Railroad
Company.

This well authenticated story Of one
of the schemes by which Timekeeper
Cook raised funds by using Missouri
Pacific engineers and firemen as cats
paws, has been told to a BAzoo re-
porter.
In one instance Cook called the
night following a pay day upon an
employee, and stated that the employee
had been over-paid to the amount
OF $40. The employee acknowledged
the fact and Cook stated that it was a
mistake and should rightfully 60 to
another employee. Cook wanted the
money turned over to him right away
so he could fix it up and not let the
"old man" Master Mechanic Weller)
get onto it. The money was handed
over to Mr.. Cook accordingly and
this employee was dismissed tor
being in the conspiracy with Cook in
defrauding the railroad company.
There may be other instances of this
kind. This one is fact. Affidavits
can and perhaps will he made to that
affect.
This question naturally arises: II
the employee received $40 too much
money for his months labor, why did
he not report it to the Office? Thi:
will be one of the questions he will
doubtless have to answer when he con
fronts the head officials with his story
and asks for reinstatement
