q newspaper and prepares to make the
most Of the restful conditions OF his

to assert her sway. In time the eyelids
close, the head begins to nod, the news

longer supported in the mouth, falls to
the floor, and the symptoms of a nap
are complete. Whether the winks be 40

Then comes the question, Is it harm
ful thus to fall asleep after meal' By
no means, for the very obvious reason
that the process is merely a physiolog-
ical one, and as such, when it occurs, is
quite natural When digestion is in
progress, nature has arranged that all
the available blood in the body shall be
collected in and about the digestive or
gans. Consequently the blood supply to
the brain falls to low ebb, and thus
sleep is easily induced. On the other
hand, of course, physiologically, it il

Onion Pacific ReOrganlzers Preparing to

WAsHINGToN, Oct. 90. The indica-
tions now are that the government
may yet reconsider its determination
to ask for postponement of the sale
of the Union Pacific railroad. There
are reasons for the belief that the
government has received an addi-
tional proposition from the reor-
ganization committee. This is be-
lieved to be a material increase in
the guarantee offer, provided the
sale be allowed to proceed on the
date originally fixed upon. This in
crease, it is reported, will make the
committees guarantee bid equal to the
full amount of the governments claim
against the Union Pacific road proper,

is altogether probable that the offer
will be accepted and the sale allowed

While resisting the entry of two des-
perate and determined robbers, and
during = heroic struggle to project
$3.50. 600 or more in money and securi-
ties in the compartments of the open
vault of the Great Falls National bank
Of Somersworth Friday afternoon.
Cashier Joseph A. Stickney was struck
Down and brutality murdered near the
desk which he occupied for years
After killing Stickney, the murder
ers rsnsaclked the vault and fed with
all the cash. with the exception of q
few gold pieces. As near as can be
estimated. Sc, 600 was taken, but it is
possible that the loss will considerably
exceed this sum. as no one but the
dead cashier knew the exact amount
that was in the institution at the time.
The robbers, after knocking Stick
ney known with . blackjack, cut his
throat.
The most remarkable feature of the
robbery is that 500, 900 in bonds of
the United States, which were kept in
one of the drawers of the big vault,
and which the robbers examined has
tily. were not taken. Neither was any
of the negotiable paper and securities
of the bank-in fact, nothing is miss
ing except the cash.
No one was aware that there was
anything wrong at the bank until
until nearly g o'clock, Or an hour after
the murderous work was done. The
perpetrators had ample time to escape.
Scores of deputy sheriffs, marshals,
police and citizens are securing this
section of the state and the adjoining
state of Maine, which. from the city,
is just across the Salmon Falls river.
The men made their visit to the
bank at the busiest time of the day in
the locality where the bank is stu
ated, and SO completely and thor
oughly did they accomplish their rob-
berry that only an uncertain clue and
