duties as a nurse. Am thoroughly cured
now and will gladly the same
to any one who will call at 264 East Por-

lington started the race; the Rock Island
followed with a fast passenger service,
the followed suit and now
the Burlington is said to be about to put
on a passenger service that will be quite
as fast as it's mail ain
The distance between Chicago and
Omaho is 500 miles, and between Chicago
and st. Paul only 400 miles, in round
numbers, yet the Northwestern makes
the run from Chicago to Omaha in one
hour less than it takes the u to ST. PAUL.
The Burlington will do the same, prob
ably.
There is understood to be an agreement
between the st. Paul-Chicago lines to run
at the speed they at present maintain,
and that no road shall run more rapidly
than another. Officials of the roads, how
ever, deny that such an agreement exists
and say that the reason the trains are
run at their present speed is for the con-
venience of the public.
What is paradoXically described as the
biggest little yard in the country is that
of the Union Pacific at Ogden, says the
Omaha Bee. Although there are only
sixteen miles of trackage, includ-
ing the union depot company's system,
over which the Union Pacific engines ply,
the business handled is said to exceed by
far that of any other yard in the coun-
try, size considered. On an average there
are thirty men employed, although at
times there are fifty, and the number of
cars handled by them each month aver
ages between 1000 and 25, 900. TIL yard
master is J. H. Mccoy, who was formerly
employed in the Union Pacific yards nj
this city.
Just now the officials of the Wyoming
division are puzzled to know what has
broken up a piece of track four miles in
length just east of Laramie. Several
months ago it was discovered that the
rails were breaking. An investigation
was made, but the cause was not earned.
The track was repaired, but the rails
continued to break. The track was then
rebuilt with new ties and rails and this
work was only completed two weeks ago.
At the present time the rails are break
ing faster thar ever before and the Off
Gals are n%onplussed. Some a the
idea that the big 1,600-class engines are
pounding the track to pieces, while others
say tina train WrcckerS are trying to
wreck q train. 1t is more probable. how
ever, tina the roadbed is not solid n
when the big engines pass over the piece
of track the rails spring and are broken.

AS we were walking up Levee street
last Tuesday night, our left baud ear
caught straiu Of music that seemed
like ihe soft melody of an Aeolian
harp, played by the flugers ofa gentle
zephyr. All was still, snd tho voices
of the night were silont In sleep. No
sound disturbed the quietude of the
air, save the angry voices OF two Tom
cats, who wero quarrelling over Cue
nard and Geo. Blackburn as to which
was the bes. man; when suddenly Sir
Thomas gave an uuearthly yell,
"And tumult, such as heard In heaven till
now. was meyer"
And both cats rolled off the wood pile,
the property Of a ring mau, aud had II
ont on the grassy grass. Being sccns-
toned 10 sounds OF political battle, the
editor moved on towards the delight
full music that seemed to attract him,
as did the songs of the siren in days Of
old, when Sinbad rosmed the seas.
On turning the corner that leads to
the post Office, vision Of rapture
burst on bis sight, and be beheld the
Opera House brilliantly Illuminated
with the oil Of Rockefeller, while over
it's polished surface fairy forms were
gliding here and there la measured
steps, aud MitchelPs band was dis.

The ball had opened, the dancars were
happy, the night was exhiliraiing, the
boys were out In their claw banners
and solitary diamonds, and all wen'
merry as q marriage bell.

Tho program Of Missionary Rally at
the Methodist Church last Sunday
night was very Interesting and enjoy
able. The children acquitted them
selves ia the most credi.able manner,
aud no doubt their parents felt proud
OF them az they went through the
parts assigned them without the least
hesi..ncy. The program was under
the management Of the Epworth
League and the Methodist Sunday
School. Misses Bessie Rous and Mar
cisse Blackburn, ofthe Episcopal Sun
day School. were among the consribu-
tors. The church was crowded. the
quar.ettcs were pretty, the children
prettier, the people pleased, the par
ents delighted, and all went home feel

wish to make q short statement
over nv own signature, which con-
slider is due both to myself and 10 some
of nv friends who have kindly inter-
Gated themselves In my behalf In the
matter of journalism. Sometime SINCE
was offered an entire printing outfit
by a few gentlemen Of the town, 10 DC
turned over to me. the entire proceeds
of which were TO be at my nisposai.
This proposition was backed by some
of the citizens of the town, as well as
some Of my country friends. KNOW
ing that tho town was too small TO
support two papers, between which
there would undoubtedly spring up
some friction aud competition, l COB
sidered il much better to 60 IN with
Me-. Turner and have only one paper,
in which everybody could SECURE a
free expression of their ideas, hereai-
ter or heretofore. III this way l think
the asperi,ies of a political campaign
will be kept out of the press. while the
public will secure better paper lpar-
don The concoit.
Mr.. Turner readily accepted my
pro position to 60 in with him; SO from
this issue 90, l will assume the edito-
rial duties of the Banner-Democrat
At the same time. ! desire TO thank
those gentlemen who offered to give
me all entire printing outfit, to- be al
my own disposal, and to assure them
that, politically, they will get fail
