Norfolk & Western Road.

Mention was made in the Star sew
eral months ago that all indications
pointed to the requirement by the
Southern Railway Company of the
Norfolk and Western railroad. Those
who are in position to be reasonably
well informed on the subject say that
arrangements for the deal have been
practically completed, and that the
transaction will be formally closed at
the foreclosure sale, which, it is under
stood, will take place during the next
month at the farthest.
To secure the Norfolk and Western
would be directly in line with the
policy that the Southern has been Pur-
suing for some time past, to absorb
and consolidate with its own system
any line that could be of special bene-
fit to it.
1t is the impression in some quar-
ters that if the consolidation above
mentioned takes place, one result will be
the construction of new short line Of
railway between Front Royal, Va,
an tho Shenandoah Valley division of
the n. and W., to Washington via Vi
emma and Falls Church, Va. The
former owners of the Norfolk and
Western were very anxious to have
such a connection, as it would save
them an immense expense in getting
their trains into Washington-thelr
only means Of getting here now beng
via the Baltimore and Ohio-but the
hard times which set in three or four
years ago and the passing Of the n,
and w. into the hands of receivers
put an end to the scheme for the time
being
Another matter which leads to the
conclusion on the part Of some people
that it is the intention Of the Southern
TO absorb the Norfolk and Western is
the following Major Henry Fink IS
one of the receivers of the Norfolk and
Western. He was for long time the
head and front of the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia, when it was one
of the Richmond and Danville proper
ties. When that road became the
property of the Southern Major Fink
became the receiver of the Memphis
and Charleston. Afterward he was
made a receiver for the Norfolk and
Western, and he continues to hold
both positions. The Memphis and
Charleston will, it is generally under
stood, be sold at receivers sale, and 1t
is conceded the Southern will purchase
it.
1t is pretty well known that unsuc-
cessful attempts were made by parties
in Philadelphia, where the general Of
fees Of the Norfolk and Western are
located, to reorganize the latter.
Most Of the stocks and bonds Of the
company are held in England.-Ere"-
ing Star, Washington, d. C.

In a recent letter to the manufacture
ers Mr.. w. F. Benjamin, editor of the
Spectator, Rushford, N. Y, says: at
may be pleasure to you to know the
high esteem in which Chamberlain's
medicines are held by the people of
your own state, where they must be
best known. An aunt of mine, who
resides at Dexter, Iowa, was about to
visit me few years since, and before
leaving home wrote me, askingif they
were sold here, stating if they were
not she would bring a quantity with
her, as she did not like to be without
them. The medicines referred to
are Chamberlain Cough Remedy, ia
nous for its cures of colds and Group;
Chamberlain's Pain Balm for rheuma-
tism, lame back. pains in the side and
chest, and Chamberlain's Cole, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel
complaints. These medicines have
been in constant use in Iowa for almost
a quarter of century. The people
have learned that they are articles of
great worth and merit, and unequaled
by any other They are for sale here

Doyou say that You are against
Bryan, but not for Mckinley? Then
you contradict yourself. If you are
against Bryan, you want to beat him,
and how can YOU beat him except by
being for Mckinley? The talk about
nominating third ticket in order to
preserve Democratic consistency is not
the talk of the sort of men who are
necessary in this emergency
The above from the New York Sun,
Democratic bolter, is worthy ofsOme
thought from Southern opponents of
the Chicago ticket.

A butler who had been % years in
the same family went one morning to
his master and said that he wanted to
leave. His MASTER much astonished,
asked what his reason was.
"Do you want your wages raised
john"
mo, sir. "
"Isit the food that you're complain
ing of"
"No, sir. -
"Well, what is it, then p
I'D rather not say, sir
Now, John, said his master, losing
his patience, "you're been long time
in my employ, and l insist upon your
telling me-
"Well, sir, said the butler, finally,
"if you must know, it's all along of the
missus. It's nag, nag, nag from morn
ing to night, and l can't stand it any

His master sighed and then said,
solemnly: John, 90 upstairs to your

down upon your Bonded knees and
thank Heaven that you re not married
to her."

THE PROMISED LAND.
Why the Tourist, Traveller and Stu
dent Should Visit Utah.

There are two reasons, either one OF
which ought to be conclusive with
every American citizen:
First-The trip from Denver to
Utah via Rio Grande Western, "Great
Salt Lake Route" is the grandest to
be found anywhere on the continent.
No European trip Of equal length can
compare with it in variety and grand
eur Of scenery and wealth Of novel in
terest.
Second-You should 90 because,
when you have made this wonderful
trip, you will find Utah at the end of
it--Utah, one Of the worlds famous
spots and a land Of gold, silver, cop
per, iron and coal; Of lofty mountains
and fertile valleys; Of vineyards,
fruits and flowers. Salt Lake City,
the capital, is Of great interest on ac-
count Of its historical and religious
associations. Here are Hot Thermal
Springs. Warm Springs, Sulphur
Springs, Sanitarium, Parks, Drives,
Canyons and the most healthful eli
mate on earth. Great Salt Lake with
the new and beautiful saltair Beach
Resort, Of Moorish design, has nc
equal in America. Write to 7. A,
Wadleigh, Salt Lake City, for copies
Of pamphlets, etc.

A PECULIAR DEMISE.
South Dickinson Commenting on an
Aged Mans Decease.

Considerable comment is being
made in south Dickinson concerning
the death Of the late James Miller,
whose death occurred south Of Enter
prise ten days ago. The old gentle
man was quite eccentric and lived by
himself in a little cabin near his
daughters home. One morning no
smoke was seen at his home and
about noon the family forced its way
into the house, finding Mr.. Miller
dead on the floor, his face bruised and
altogether presenting peculiar ap-
pearance. Little was said OF it at the
time but it has been the cause of con-
siderable comment since, many hold
ing that he was the victim Of tramps
who broke in to get money that he
was reputed to possess. The mystery
will, however, probably never be
solved, and there may be none after
all as it is entirely possible that he
may have died alone in the night and
fallen to the floor in his death strug-
gle. In either event it was sad
closing for life.
