Railway Notes.

General Freight Agent William Orr, Of the
Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic, come from
Duluth yesterday and spent some time visit
ing some Of his railroad friends here.
Several days ago Chairman Caldwell was
asked to make a ruling on the new inter
changeable mileage ticket taking into con-
sideration the existing rates between Chicago
and this territory. Mr.. Caldwell says that
holders of interchangeable mileage certificates
are entitled to purchase tickets at the pre-
vailing cut rates, and to be ereadited with
travelling the number of miles covered by the
ticket. They will not, however, be allowed
a rebate where the cut rate is lower than
cents per mile.
The Northern Pacific directors will meet on
Dec 10. 1t is regarded as an assured fact
that they will declare dividend Oh the pre-
ferred stock. The only question of interest
now is whether they will start with 20 per
cent semi-annual dividend or distribution of
1 per cent for a quarterly period. Net for
October increased about 5000 600, and for the
third week of November the gain was about
$25 900 to $50 coo per day. The talk is that
the months earnings VIII show $60O,OOO ahead
of November. 1896.
A meeting of the executive committee of the

tiers that will be before the meeting are
theatrical rates, changes in the methods of

and greater fines in the local association.

REARGUMENT ORDERED.
Church Question Involved in n New
York Case Ignored.

ALBANY, N Y, Nov. 30-The court
of appeals has ordered a reargument
of the case of John S. Baxter, priest
Of the Brooklyn diocese, sIgainst Bishop
Mcdonnell One of the Questions in
vclved was wether the adjudication by
a court of the holy Roman Catholic
church of a controversy shall be a part
of a civil action in the regularly con-
stituted courts of the state of New
York. Both of the lower tribunals, the
supreme court, special term, and the
supreme court, appellate division have
decided that such a religious court is,
in it's nature, ecclesiastical only and
has no jurisdiction to determine the
civil rights of parties and is no bar to
action even by priests of that church in
a civil court, but this court does not
go into that question, ordering re-
argument on other and more material
grounds. Bishop Mcdonnell appealed
from the decisions of the lower courts
sustaining the appeal Of the Rev. John
S. Baxter from a decision of the Metro
politan court of the arch diocese Of
New York, presided over by the vicar
general of the holy Roman Catholic
church, rejecting his application for
reinstatement to his parish and for an
award of $6,665 salary alleged to be due
him, and also from the judgment Of the
apostolic delegate of Washington
affirming that decision.

A Satisfactory Basis of COnsOlida-

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-Efforts were
begun six months ago to consolidate

been held in this city at which every
wire manufacturer in the country was
represented. For some time after the
plan was set on foot it looked as if
consolidation would not be accomplish

was arranged and the meeting was held
to perfect the final details in his stu

LAND SWINDLE.
Eastern Buyers ROped in on an Adj

MINOT, N. D.. Nov 3O.-The delin-

victims Of which are mostly Eastern
people of moderate means. Almost all
the tax delinquencies are in the Brook
iyn addition to Minot This is a tract
of about $50 acres, comprised of steep
hills and deep cOulees, which was plat
ted by an Eastern concern, that sold
lots in a wholesale way to New York
and other people, the purchasers buying
as much on the reputation of Minot
as on anything else. That there were
many buyers the long list of delln-
quents readily shows. These people in
the East speculated on the representa-
tons of the incorporators and bought
extensively. When they saw their in
vestment was yielding them no return
for their money, they dubbed together
and sent agents here to inspect their
purchases. Some of their lots were
found to be standing on end. and others
lying on their sides on account Of the
steep hills. The purchasers now will
not pay the taxes for their lots, which
indeed they cannot afford to do, as the
lots are utterly valueless. In conse-
quence of this the county is put to the
expense of advertising and selling this
land-Which will make cost far in ex-
cess of what the land is worth. The
chances are that the county will have
a white elephant on its hands when it

SUBMARINE SHIP.
Invention of Wisconsin Genius
Successfully Tested.

OSHKOSH, Wis, Nov. 30.-A submar-
inc boat that goes under water when
its occupants so desire and rises when
they are ready, moving steadily as they
will, has long been desired. Now 1t
seems to be an accomplished fact, If
the tests of the Raddatz vessel prove
anything. The boat has been recently
submitted to various tests, which, it is
claimed, amply proves it's approximate
perfection. The young invantor is
Richard Raddatz.
In appearance the boat is shaped like
a huge cigar or torpedo, tapering grad
ually to either end, and presenting to
the water surface in which the resis-
lance is practically reduced to nothing.
It is So feet long, 4 feet wide and feet
inches high, built on heavy frame
work of angle irons. Once in the water,
if for a surface trip, there is little to
be seen, nothing, in fact, save the two
turretS projecting a foot or two above
the water
Immediately under the forward turret
is a steering wheel. On the right hand
are gauges to register the voltage and
amperage, for the boat goes electrically.
To the left of the pilots seat is g.
small knob with which to start the
motor and propeller wheel. Back of
this is hot air engine, connected with
the propeller shaft. There is a storage
batter of thirty cells. Under the aft
turret is the engineer The propeller
shaft runs forward to the air engine,
and near this engine are the storage
battery of thirty cells. Under the aft
On the under side of the boat forward
of the propeller is long and rather
slender rudder. One of the most in
teresting things issthe method by which
the boat is lowered and raised, but this
is one of the secrets which the inven-
tor is not yet ready to make known.
Every motion is made with the most
perfect ease and grace, and this thirty
one-ton- man-of-war deports herself in
the deep as naturally as a porpoise.

suggested that it would be a good idea to
take the sense of the meeting and the DEM

obtaind silence and announced:
Gentlemen we are about to take vote
for president of the United States. Are you
ready?'
Ready was the prompt answer on all
sides.
Just then the steersman called out the GUS
tomary Low bridge.
Here was the Democrats opportunity, and
he seized it,
All those in favor of Martin Van Buren,
he shouted stoop down! Contrary minded,
stand erect!
THE boat at this moment reached the
bridge. and every man dropped as if he had
been shot.
It's unanimuos vote" declared the tri-
umphant partisan of the sage of klnderhook.'

NOVEL DEFENSE.
Convict BARLEY Alleges That He
Cannot BE Sued,

OMAHA, Neb., Nov 3O.-A novel petit
ton has been filed in the district court
by Joseph BARLEY, ex-state treasurer,
now under twenty years sentence for
lcoting the treasury of 100000. The
petition was an answer to the states
suit in which BARLEY is made Sco-de-
PENDANT with his bondsmen by the
state, in which it seeks to recover the
amount stolen. The petition declares
that BARLEY cannot be sued, since he
is dead, having been sentenced to the
penitentiary for twenty years. His at
torneys declare that under the state
law no convict can be sued. If this
contention is held the suit against the
bondsmen cannot be maintained, since
the principal must be sued with or be-
fore sureties are sued in Nebraska.

STARTLING STATISTICS.
One Death I'm Every Seven Due to-
Consumption.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3O.-Dr. Biggs, of
the board of health, made some start
ling statements while that body was
today considering the city budget for
1928. The board of estimates was ask
ed to approve a grant of 100000 for the
care of tuberculosis in special hospi-
tai. DR.. Biggs, speaking for the board
of health, in support of the appropria-
ton, declared that one out of every
seven persons who die in this city, are
victims of tubercular consumption. DR..
Biggs further stated that. among the
working classes the percentage of
deaths due to this disease was one
quarter. The board of health was I'M
able to deal definitely with the matter
today but at it's regular meeting will
pass a resolution recommending the ap-
preparation of the money asked to stay
the ravages of consumption.

DRINK?

Don't give them tea or coffee. Have you
tried the new food drink called GRAIN-O?
1t is delicious and nourishing and takes the
place of coffee. The more Grain-O you give
the children the more health you distribute
through their systems. GrainO is made Of
pure grains, and when properly prepared
tastes like the choice grades of coffee, but
costs about one-fourth as much. All grocers
sell 1t. 15c and Csc. Try Grain-O! Insist that
your grocer gives you Grain-o. Accept no
