Louis. q

A well known official of the Omaha
road has in his possession a rare
curiosity in the shape of a railroa d
guide issued in 1853, years before a
good many of the present generation
of younger railroad officials were born.
1t Is called the American Railway
Guide for the United States" and gives
the time cards Of 800 railroads as
against Lips railroads listed today.
Besides giving the time cards and
mileage Of the roads the old guide also
gives the fares between different
points, and it shows that the rates of
today are not much lower than they
were in 1853. On the roads in New
York state, however, the rate of ,
cents a mile is given, a rate reguIa fed
by the charters granted to the various
lines by the state and in effect I'M 70

The Erie railroad, one of the Oldest
In the country, is shown as having a
total mileage of 469 miles. the system
now embracing trackage covering 2.
OoI miles. Eight passenger trains ran
over the Pennsylvania railroad system
between Philadelphia and Pittsburg
when the guide was issued and all
trains leaving New York are shown as
departing from the city hall.
Western railroads take UP the smaller
part of this ancient index for travellers
and Chicago does not figure of much
account - railroad center. In those
days the Michigan Central railroad was
the principal line running into the city.
and morning and evening train ran
each way between Chicago and De-
troit. The fare was 81, while today it
is $7.75
One page of the guide suffices to fur

the mileage of 120 miles. Twelve trains
ran over the line and, two and one-half
cents mile was charged.
Only sixty miles of track made UP the
Illinois Central road and foot note at
the bottom of its time table says:

between Chicago and the Kankakee
river is all but completed and will be in
operation during the summer

IN HONOR OF THE ORDERS
DEAD.
AN IMPRESSIVE MEMORIAL,
UNDER THE AUSPICES OF UP
CHURCH LODGE AT OLIVER
CHURCH.
ELOQUENT WORDS FOR ARMENIA
At the Park Avenue Church-Dr.
Faude Called to an Indian
apOlis Church.

The A o. U. w. memorial service,
held at Oliver Presbyterian church yes
terday afternoon, was largely attend
ed, the seating capacity Of the main
floor being taxed to it's full capacity.
The session was under the auspices of
Upchurch Lodge No. 49, Minnehaha
Lodge No. 81 and Levi Lodge No. TO-
The exercises were of the general
character usual to such occasions, and
Rev. w. H Geistweit, of Emmanuel
Baptist church, a member of the order,
was the first speaker on the pro
gramme. The main thought brought
out in his address was the universal
desire of humanity to be remembered
after death 1t seemed to be a princi-
pal Unborn in human nature and the
qualification Of it was a beautiful and
commendable custom. One of the sad
dest sights the speaker had ever seen
was a large field of graves in the South,
each grave being marked: Unknown"
After a selection by the Oliver church
choir, Rev. H. w. Fraser, pastor of
the church, addressed the assembly,
comparing the life of mortals to that
of the leaf. The growth, fullness and
decay, were all productive of striking
comparisons. Some men grow old with
bad grace and die still more ungrace-
fully, while others mature with all the
beauty of a richly colored oak leaf and
leave the world an object lesson of
moral beauty.
This speech was followed with
another song by the choir and then w.
H. Lands, p. NJ. w. of Upchurch lodge
and the last speaker on the programme,
began an address. He confined his re-
marks to the origin, growth and work
of the order. The Ancient Oorder of
United Workmen grew from a gather
ing of IA men, headed by John Jordan
Upchurch, in Pennsylvania, Oct. q,
1863 The vicissitudes of the life of
Upchurch were touched upon briefly to
show the grand character Of the man.
The order had thrived under his guild
ance and soon grew to national pro-
portions. It's membership has increas-
ed from the original IA to 35S,000. It's
motto was Charity, Hope and Protec-
ton"
w. X. Hicks presided over the meet
ing, introducing the speakers and an
nouncing the programme, and through
out all great interest was manifested
on the part of the audience.

VALUE OF PINE FOREST.
Paper Read by o. f. Brand ut thi
Forestry Convention.

Forestry Convention.
The following able article on the theme of
pine forests was one of the interesting and
instructive papers read before the forestry
convention in Minneapolis last week by o. f.
Brand.
Able and lengthy articles by the thousand
have been written by patriotic citizens in the
vain attempt TO arrest the wanton destruction
OF the once magnificent forests OF Minnesota
and Wisconsin, and yet ! am not aware OF
one instance where their admonitions have
been needed. To me the reason for this re-
suit seems obvious. The writers OF the arti-
cles mentioned have invariably appealed to
the sentimental aesthetic, rather than to
the practical side of mans nature.
They have spoken of the effect which the
destruction of our forests would have upon
the climate of a distant future: they have
animadyerted on the baieful influences of the
tree,ess prairie upon the moral and aesthetic
in man; they have mingled social science
with forestry. and moraliZed concerning du-
ties TO generations yet unborn. Now. all this
has fallen upon duh ears. Ii has awakened
no response in the breasts of the people, as
is evidenced by the fact that it has not been
acted upon. 1t is not the people alone who
fail to take an interest in the matter. Even
conscientious legislators have failed TO de-
tect its importance, and forest fires with
their attendant horrors. have not brought
them forward with measures adequate to rec
ufy the evil And why? Because our able
advocates of forest reform have failed in
the almighty dollar, to produce an argument
appealing to their pocketbooks. This is what
l now propose TO do.
Starting from a point on the ST. Croix
river straight east of Pine City, and drawing
a line directly west 100 miles, thence north
through Fergus Falls to the boundary line
or the state. we have to the north and east
OF that line an area of 40 900 square miles
or this vast track it is safe to say that one
fourth, or 10000 square miles of It. are unfit
for any other purpose except for the pro-
ullctlOn - OIL .
under an intelligent system Of forestry. such
as outlined in the article read before this
society one year ago. and this domain is
put TO It's proper and natural use | figure
out result as follows: For basis [ will
say that three pine trees of sixty years
growth will cut 1000 feet of lumber worth
$40. One hundred trees Will grow on every
acre II three trees grow into $40 in sixty
years the growth of one tree would be
1888 l-3 in sixty years, or 0555 cents in one
year. With 100 trees to the acre the gain
would be 5000 per annum for each acre
mere being $40 acres to each square mile
the total number of acres for the 10 900 square
miles above referred to is g. 400 900 which
multiplied by the yearly increase of one acre
800, gives us the grand total of s25 so COO as
the yearly gain or value of the annual crop

so? This is a question for taxpavers for
patriots, fnancers. statesmen Is this peo.
PIE large enough to handle it?

LAKESIDE OPERA
Planned for Next Summer at Lake
Park, MinnetOnka.

The Minneapolis G st. Louis will soon an
nounce an elaborate programme of entertain
ment to be offered this coming summer sea-
son at the Lake Park hotel. The house will
be declared formally open June IA, but as the
state druggists will hold their annual conven-
ton at Lake Park June 10, IL and r. this
will mean that some hundreds Of visitors will
be entertained. The outlook for the house
next season is very promising, es the man
agement has already secured two parties of
twenty-five each from St. Louis, Des Moines
and Southern points
The first week in July will be devoted to a
reproduction of fairy land on the lawns. The
week following will be Masonic weeF, and the
week succeeding that tennis week. The Lake
Park this year wants the Northwestern tennis
tournament, and if it fails in capturing that
event will probably give an invitation tourna-
ment to local and outside cracks.
The last week in July will be for the Royal
Arcanumites, and, following their festivities,
will be series of special concerts. The hotel
will close promptly on Sept. /.
The features for the last two weeks will be
a carnival of nations and living whist.
The management announce a change OF
policy for this year, in that the house will
run no bar, and also that the present pavil-
ion will have its character entirely changed.
1t is to be cleaned and reftted with the fur
nishngs of a small playhouse, and from time
to time light opera and popular entertain
ments will be billed on its boards The hotel
itself is to undergo considerable change be-
fore being opened. the alterations to probably
include the Introduction of electric lights.

Quite Another Story.

Brooklyn Eagle.
1t is one of the absurd consequences
OF the situation. that the advocates of
free silver should hinge one of their
arguments upon the existence of this
condition. They claim that the ability
of Japan to undersell American and
European manufacturers is not caused
by the low wages or cheap living of
their workmen, but by the fact that
it buys silver cheap in this country
and thereby makes a large profit on it's
currency, which enables its merchants
to pay their workmen at the rate of
fifty-nine cents on the dollar. From
this they argue that if the United
States were to adopt the same prin-
ciple. we could defy competition. In
other words, that we should pay our
workmen fifty-nine cents where we now
pay them a dollar. How the workmen
would like this, is Gas Kipling says

1t is rather small hole that the
republicans seek to crawl through
when they undertake to disclaim all
responsibility for the reorganized SEN
ate. now that they have taken possess
ION or al It's patronage. The New
York Tribune, for example. claims that
there is not a single measure or prin-
ciple which the Republicans could car
ry without the aid OF other senators
This may be true, but they seem to
have experienced no difficulty in Sc
curing the senate patronage by virtue
of trade with the Populists. Is it
not reasonable to expect that legisla-
ton may be carried on there on the
same lines? The diclSering appears to
have been successful so far.

IN case of danger the Indian was ever ready
TO act and often too at the expense of personal
bodily harm to himself. This promptness and
self-reliance in cases of accident has been the
means of his saving many lives. Equally alert
has he ever been for greater dangers, those
arising from disordered condition of the
kidneys, liver, stomach or blood, which he
knew as we'll as the best physician of to-day
would eventually result in death.
His remedy for these troubles was always q
medicine compounded from roots, herbs, bark
and gums, not roughly thrown together, but
carefully compounded, the secret of making
it having been handed down from generation
to generation. This same remedy known as
