RAILROAD NOTES,
Change For the Better.

Among the improvements that will
be made on the Baltimore and Ohio Is
a radical change in the running of pas
senger trains. General Manager
Greene has been investigating this
matter for come time and contemplates
changing tHe number of cars per train
so that they can make better time
going up the heavy grades, and as a
consequence will not run so fast COM
ing down. Now that the track has
been placed in first-class condition
and new motive power purchased for
the passenger trains. Mr. Greene is of
the opinion that, by equalizing the
weight of the trains, trip over the
Baltimore and Ohio will be made very
pleasant.
NOTES.
The Baltimore and Ohio track from
Chicago Junction to Chicago now ranks
as the finest in the west 1t is laid
with heavy steel rail and ballasted
with clean gravel. and as there are
very few curves on the line the trains
are enabled to make high speed with
perfect safety.
Train 81, on the Baltimore and Ohio
which Is the 60-hOur fast freight from
New York to Chicago and St. Louis,
Is now being run in three sections.

THAT DEMOCRATIC FUSS.
A Correction as to Some of the Men and
other Facts.

1t seems today to be more of
question whether chaos reigns or
whether it rains. The first was the
idea of an article in this paper Friday
evening, but the latter has been the
immediate effect of it. Some of the
parties named in the article say that
the paper was entirely wrong in the list
of names it gave of those opposed to
the present democratic nominee for
sheriff. There is no question but that
the opposition has grown strong to Mr..
Harkins, but that in giving the names
of the opponents the paper was entirely
misled Gus Jacob was not in the
movement for the new democratic
county ticket and he does not even
favor such move. He was partisan
of John Hegeman's, but when he found
that Mr.. Hegeman had been fairly
beaten in the convention he started out
to do the best he could for Mr.. Harkins
and he desires his position to be SO
understood. The same is to be said of
Mr.. O'Donnell. So as to these gentle
n0u Gu0 NEW U0SlI OS w 0C1ud OOA
rected.
Nevertheless that third county ticket
is being talked up and the movement is
being pushed vigorously. A meeting is
to be held at the Grant house next
Monday evening and the matter will
be discussed pro ct con.
The claim is now being made by the
democrats that the reason that the pop
ulists were not recognized in the n
vention was that they asked for notl.
ing. They did not appear before tIe
convention and did not apply to the
authorized representatives of the county
democracy for any position and so the
democrats prepared to paddle their
own canoe alone. Overtures have now
been made by the gold democrats and
whatever elements may meet together
next Monday evening to the populists
to name their men and enter their con-
vention, the evident purpose Of the
whole affair being to defeat the present
county ticket. The meeting Monday
evening is called mainly for conference
purposes. The conferees will first find
out "where they are a." and act ac-
cordingly.

Signs Of Coming Rain.

When the cat washes her face look
out for rain.
Just before rain the common house
fly is very troublesome.
Rats and mice are generally very
active and noisy just before storm.
Crickets sing much more sharply
just before a rain than at other times.
The falling of SCOT from the chimney
is a tolerably sure indication of ap-
preaching bad weather.
Parrots are good barometers. Just
before a rain the most talkative and
gabby parrot becomes silent.
When bad weather is imminent
swallows fly low, because at such times
the insects which constitute their food
keep near the ground.
Spiders always come out of their
holes shortly before rain, being ad-
vised by their instinct that insects then
fly low and are more easily taken.
1t is a curious circumstance that the
skin of the abdomen of frogs changes
its hue on the approach Of bad wealth
er, and from clear white becomes
dirty yellow.
Ducks are more than usually noisy
on the approach of a storm, and their
quacking is considered by farmers to
be an almost unfailing sign of rainy
weather.
Many persons are so sensitive to the
changes of weather that they are
themselves natural barometers, and
can foretell a change, though unable
to explain the manner in which they
are effected by it.
Shepherds say that the wool of sheep
furnishes an excellent indication of
weather changes. When it is crisp
there will be no rain. When it is limp
and feels very soft to the touch storm
is imminent.
Ladies' bangs are good indicators Of
coming storm. When they g go out
of curln the indication is for rain.
When they are dry and crisp fair
weather will ensue. When the hair is
naturally curly. however, it becomes
more so on the approach of rain.

IMPORTANT DECISION.
The Butte and Boston Against the
Lexington.

BUTTE, Mont, Feb. 22.-The
Butte and Boston Mining COM
pany today got a verdict against the
Lexington Mining company for S125,OOO,
the value of ore taken out by the lat
ter from beneath the surface Of the
ground belonging to the plaintiff, by
means of underground workings. The
case was on trial ten days and the
suit was for 100000. Both companies
own portions Of Wappello claim, hav-
ing bought from the original patentee.
The Lexington company's portion is
north of the Butte and Boston, and
its vein dips to the south. In follow
ing the vein It was found that 300 feet
down, the vein separated as by frac-
ture. The Lexington crosscut to the
lower part of the fractured vein and
continued on down, taking out ore
from what it claimed was some vein
that had its apex on the Lexington
ground. The Butte and Boston dem
onstrated by upraise that the vein the
Lexington had worked on below the
800 feet level was. not a portion of the
vein apeXing on the Lexington ground.
but was almost a vertical vein having
its apex on the Butte and Boston prop
erty and clearly traced from point
where ore was extracted to the sur
face on the inside of the Butte and
Boston part of the Wappello claim. 1t
was also demonstrated that the Butte
and Boston vein was intersected by
the Lexington vein but without break
ing the continuity of the former. One
Of the most important instructions of
the court was in regard to the separa-
ton Of two parts of the Lexington
vein at the 800 level. The judge said:
II II becomes necessary in order to
connect two separate and distinct nor
tons of a vein to pass for any con-
siderable distance through country
rock, having none of the elements of
a vein and through which intervening
space there is neither mineral or walls
or seams TO be followed. then it NAV
be concluded that the veins are per
manently separated, and one cannot he
followed from the other through the
intervening space into the ground of
another. The case Will be appealed

Five Dollar

Enormous was the number, in fact it
seemed like everybody and their fam
lies came or wrote to Doctor Shores last
week to place themselves under his care
and get a share Of stock in lions Medi-
cal institute in accordance with his an
ming or renewing treatment for one
month would receive free one share Of
the capital stock of lions Medical in
sutute valued at $500.
They came in pairs, they came alone,
they came in crowds, all bent on the
same errand. They wanted health and
they knew where to get it and good
investment along with it.
We give warning that If the crowds
and the lagards and -till-tomorrow
people will miss this grand opportunity
to become stockholders in this famous
institution of health.
Why did they come?
Simply because Doctor G.. W Shores
has proven himself a master Of dis
ease; The people all know him TO be
the head and brains of the medical
profession and when he generously pro-
profits on the $50 a month fee, it
seemed too good to be true. it seemed
out of place in this nineteenth century
selfshness and the people quick to see it
was something grand. something they
wanted and needed, were not slow TO
take advantage of it.
Now don't delay. Don't be too late.
Until further notice every man, woman
and child paying 50 for one months
gets the same care, advice, tender soli-
cltude and most approved treatment in
the world, besides receiving free one
share of stock worth 500.
