when properly prepared it tastes like the

ANOTHER CUT IN WAGES
Great Northern Methods to
be Applied to the Northern
Pacific.

Wadena Tribune: Many of the
features in the management of the
Great Northern system are being in.
troduced on the N. P. The Tribune
was informed last week, from an ap-
parently reliable force, that several
surprising announcements, impor-
tant to the employees of the N P.
will be Forthcoming soon. The Tri-
bune's informant said that the COM
pany had prepared new time card
to go into effect soon, which would
perhaps dispense with two local day
trains, known as Nos. 5 and 6, which
now run daily between St. Paul and
Fargo. Under the new schedule the
overland trains, Nos. l and 2, will
run through the state of Washing
ton during the daytime, and this
change will enable the company to
close up the smaller stations in
Washington during the night, thus
dispensing with the services of a
large number of night operators.
Gasoline engines will also be put in
at many OF the pumping stations.
These engines are ready to run at
any time and do not have to be
steamed up nor do they require so
much attention while running as do
the steam pumps. It is intended
that the section men will run, to a
large extent at least, the pumping
stations and che regular bumpers
will be found without employment.
On Feb. lst section men will be cut
from 81. 20 to ST. TO per day and It
is rumored that general slash in
wages OF from 2H to per cent will
soon be made all along the line. The
system OF baggage checking now
used on the Great Northern is, it is
said, soon to be inaugurated on the
Northern Pacific. Division terminal
talk is also rife among railroad
men and Staples railroad M n
said to The Tribune Saturday that
the status OF the company's AFFAIRS
at Staples rather inclined him to the
opinion that the division would be
moved from that town. He said
that tie company's property in Sta
pies was certainly in a very dilapi-
dated condition and there seemed no
disposition on the part OF the COM
pany to repair it. He said that an
enlargement of the round house was
one of the many improvements prom
ised by the company, but that the
matter had been abandoned.

What becomes OF all the old copper

known what has become of them, ex-
cept that once in a while a single
specimen turns up. in change. A few
years ago 4,5OO,OOO b-ouze 2-cent
pieces were set aaoat. Three million
Of them are still outstanding. Three

very rarely that one is seen. or 800,

has been returned to the Government
for coinage or is held by the treasury.
Congress appropriates about 100000
yearly for recoining the silver coins
now in possession of the treasury.
These are mostly half-dollars and
are not circulated, because there is
no demand for them. Not long ago
the stock Of them amounted to over
S5,000,000, but it is only about half
that now. The money set aside for
recoining is not intended TO pay for
the cost Of minting. but it is required
to reimburse the treasury Of United
States Oh account of the loss which
silver pieces have suffered by abra-
sion. The loss amounts to $50 on
every 81 900. and it has to be made
good in order to set the treasurer's
accounts straight.-Atlauta Consti-
