MIR. NEWMAN Is HERE.
His Presence Strengthens the Report
of His Succeeding Finley.

The presence in the city yesterday of
w. H. Newman, third vice president of
the Northwestern, went to confirm the
report that he had been rendered the
position of second vice president of the
Great Northern to succeed w. w. Fin
ley resigned.
President j. J. Hill would neither af-
firm or deny the rumored appointment
saying that a successor to Mr. Finley
would be announced the latter portion
Of the week.
Mr.. Newman spent a portion of the
day with Mr.. Hill and Mr. Finley, and
passed several hours in the general Off
ces Of the Northwestern. That he is
the man selected, there is but little
doubt. Mr.. Newman is one of the best
traffic men in the country, and held a
very important post with very ex-
tensive system. His duties with the
Northwestern were about the same as
those of Mr.. Finley Of the Great North
ern, and he is eminently qualified for
the post
w. H. Newman entered railroad SER
vice on July l, 1859, since when he has
held the following positions: Station
agent, Texas & Pacific, at Shreveport,
La, to 1872; general freight agent, same
road, 1872 to 1888; traffic manager.

GREAT WESTERN IMPROVEMENTS
Work on a Number Have Been Begun
This Week.

The Chicago-Great Western has an
nounced more costly improvements to
take place along it's line Immediately,
aggregating several hundred thousand
dollars expenditure. The road has COM
menced upon general policy Of i'm
provement and extension, and the de-
partures already under way are but a
beginning.
Work was begun yesterday upon a
million buShel elevator at Kansas City,
Kan, to cost over $500, 000 The elevator
will be one of the largest in either Kan
sas City, Kan, or Kansas City, Mo.
A Minneapolis firm has the contract
for the construction of the new elevator
which will be of the most modern con-
struction throughout. The Great West
ern is also about to commence the re-
arrangement Of its yards in Kansas
City, Kan, the work requiring the out
lay of large sum of money.
Work will also commence next week,
from the Chicago end of the road, upon
general programme of Improvement,
which will extend to the Twin Cities in
due time The Great Western has re-
Gently purchased 1000 tons of rs lb.
rails, which will replace the present
rails in service. AS fast as possible
this rejuvenation will be pushed North
ward over the entire system.
The construction of the new extension
from Wasioja to Mantorville, the county
seat Of Dodge County, Iowa, will also
be commenced next week, and it is
expected train service will be instituted
on the new branch by the middle of
October. Heretofore Mantorville has
been connected with the outside world
by a distant branch Of the Northwest
ern.

Dishonored Drafts.

When the stomach dishonors the drafts
made upon it by the rest of the system it Is
necessarily because its fund Of strength is
very low. Toned with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, it soon begins to pay out vigor in the
shape Of pure, rich blood, containing the ele-
ments of muscle, bone and brain. As a Sc
quenee of the new yigor afforded the stomach
the bowels perform their functions regularly
and the liver works like clock work. Malaria

superintendent Mcmillan of the union

paying off the extra men engaged in

he signed over $50 pay checks which ag-

The superintendent has not yet COM
pleted the statistics upon the number
of trains and cars passing in and out
of the union depot during encampment
week, but the clerks are now working
upon the statement. The week was q
tremendous test of the capacity of the
railroads and the terminal station. If
the figures are as large as those Of the
Minneapolis union depot, and they will

THE NEGROES CURLY HAIR.


1t II q Protection to tho Brain from tho
Tropical Sun.
The fiat nose of the African and his
large nostrils result from the necessity
of inhalirg larger draughts OF tropical
air to produce the same degree of vital
ity, because OF its greater expansion;
thus the increased exercise produces
increased expansion of the nostrils of
n large nose.
The curling of the Africans hair, the
st. Louis Republic says, while univer-
sal on his continent. Is common in
every country of the globe. Perhaps
this has it's scientific solution in the
fact that the curls defect the rays of
the tropical sun, thus preventing their
more severe penetration into the brain.
In the transmission of light, it is 4 law
that every intervening object with
which n ray comes in contact bends
and divcrts in another direction.
Heat curls every kind of hair and
hat which is provided in nature for
il protection of the brain from injury
by the rays of n tropical sun is IL Gre
nted endowment, which by degrees is
becoming naturally transmissible and
inherited.
The skull of the African, with its Pc
culiar thickness, affords another fea-
ture of protection to the brain.
IT is evident hat it is the outdoor ex-
posture of the working classes that
makes their skin so black. 1t must
nlso be remembered that it is not the
skin alone of the men of Africa which
manifests deep color, but this charac-
terist.c IL noticed in all the birds,
beasts, fish, reptiles and plants.
Another fact in relation TO this
phenomenon is that everything grows,
less deeply colored as we approach the
polar regions. There the white bear
is found and nowhere else, while the
black bear lives and is now native to
almost every other climate.
