The Dead Line.

On January II, the Topeka Advo-
cate will begin the publication of a
serial story eptitled HThe Dead Line"
a work which promloes to be the SEN
sation of the period among story
reading people. 1t is a facinating
word picture of life, in which fiction
is effectively employed to direct the
readers mind to the serious social
and political questions of to-day.
The author of this story is a pro-
fessional man, whose reason for writ
ing over an assumed name is that he
is engaged in other work, and does
not desire notoriety as a story writer.
He Is q western man, and not I'M
known to fame Though he has adj
mirers in all political parties, there
are those who fear and others who
hate him. So far as talent is con-
Cerned, his literary work all speak
for itself.
Those who want free sample copies,
containing the first chapter of this
story should order at once. Address.

BEST DINING CAR SERVICE IN THE WORLD.
The Rock Island is foremost in adopt.

prove speed and give that luxury, safety
and comfort that popular patronage de-
mands. Its equipment is thoroughly
complete with vestibuled trains, mag

coaches, all the most elegant, and of
recently improved patterns.
Faithful and capable management
and polite, honest service from EN-.
ployes are important items. They are
a double duty-to the Company and to
travelers-and it is sometimes task
difficult Of accomplishment. Passen-
gers on this line will find little cause
for complaint on that ground.
The Importance of this Line can be

The average civilized man would DO
hard put to it if ho were compelled TO
start fire without matches, finder box
or burning glass. But Lieutenant Won
Hohnel describes an African chief as
not only accomplishing this feat, but
doing it with quiekness and ease. The
traveller had asked him to show his skill
II was really wonderful, in view Of
the moisture laden atmosphere, with
what rapidity he did as had requested.
The materials employed were such as
we saw wherever we went--two simple
bits of wood, one fat about six inches
long and not quite an inch wide with
row Of grooves on one side, the other
about ~ inches long and Of the thick
ness and shape Of lead pencil
The longer piece, fixed in one Of the
grooves of the shorter piece, was held
tightly between the palms Of the hand
and whirled rapidly round and round.
Ia few seconds the wood dust which
was produced by the friction, and which
fell through the grooves, began TO osmoke,
This dust was carefully nursed into o
blaze, which was fod with fine grass
and bits of cotton stuff
The whole thing is done 50 quickly
that our men, oven the lazy Wasungu,
always employed this method on short
halts for lighting their pipes. - Youths

The Late Roslna voies Took Her ART
Hather Too Seriously.
The late Mrs Clay, better known as
Rosina Vokes, was hard taskmistress-
She took her art both seriously and
rigidly and demanded the same from

a one time connection with the Vokes
company suffered extremely from felon

arm gave her pain, and sho was a

"You will not ghirk your part to-
night, however, remarked Mrs, Clay,
with an ominous gleam In her eye. Tho

that further remonstrance would prob.
ably result in her dismissal, SO nothing
more was said. That night, according
to osders, she, with infinite pain, clap

the blood gushed from her suffering
