WORK ON HlNESBURGH ROAD.
About IS Men Now Em pIoy ed-Cars to be
the Nest Mn mfactmred.

Frank j. Sheeran, one of the contractors
of the 1linesburgh electric railroad, was
seen Thursday by a Free Press reporter
lie said that there were now employed on
the road about Is men. These were en-
gagged in building trestlcs, digging culverts
and work of a similar character so that
the frosts of the coming winter would do
no damage to the work already completed.
About three miles of the track IL already
laid. part of 1t at the Burlington end of
the line and part about half way between
the two places. He said he thought the
present force would be kept at work UNI
til some time in December and that when
spring opened and work could be resumed
the road would be completed and in run
ming order in about six weeks. He said
that some work on the Shelburne road
would probably be lone this fall. The
work on the spur to Queen City Park Will
not be attempted this fan, but will prob
ably be started carly in the spring. Mr..
Sheeran said that the cars that are to be
run on the Hinesburgh road are to he the
best Tia are manufactured. They are to
he combination baggage and passenger
cars, the forward end for baggage and the
rear for passengers. The seats are to be
the same as in the steam railroad cars in
stead of running the length of the car AS
those now in use in thisc city do. The cars
are said to be very comfortable and easy
runniug. Gen. Avery went Thursday &c
Hinesburgh to locate the station at that
place. The site chosen Is on the land OF
Il. T.. Browbson IN the road now as the
east road to Charlotte. The yard will also
take in land owned by Ii. A. Post and the
entire amount utilized for this purpose
will be about eight acres.

GOLD IN
Charles BuShman Dug For Water and
Found the YeIlow MctMl.

Charles Bushman of Shelburt.e has dis
covered gold quartz on his farm and he
expects that the deposit will turn out to
be rich. Mr.. Rushman's farm is situated
on the Sholburne road, about three-fourths
of q mile this side of Shelburne village.
Mr.. Bushman moved to the farm about
eight years ago and at that time dug q
we'll betw cen two large rocks, where a
spring dubbed forth. He sunk the well
10 feet at this time and up to last sum-
mer a plentiful supply of water was Sc
cured. Last summer the well dried up
and Mr., Bushman dug six feet deeper,
when he struck water. He noticed no.
thing peculiar in the rock that had been
taken from the well, but a person passing
one day who was familiar with gold ore
discovered that gold quartz was there in
abundance. Samples were taken to Prof.
Perkins to analyze and he gave the opin-
ion that by digging a few feet deeper gold
would he found in paying quantities. lie
viii have more samples to ana we in the
near future. Mr.. BuShman will not work
the mine any this fall on account of the
cold weather, but will in the early spring
develop the premises and see If ore can
be found in paying quantities.

Long Doetoring Neaus Wrong Doctorinc

If you are afflicted with chronic and lin
gerlng disease ii is safe to conclude that
YOU are doctoring on wrong lines. If pro-
per medicine could not overcome your di-
sease. the disease would long age have
overcome you. The trouble is that you
have been treated for something wholly
foreign to your complaint, and the medi-
cine either has had no effect or has made
you worse, The wise thing to do is TO con-
suit DIR. Greene. of 81 Temple Place, Bos-
ton, Mass, the d~iscovercr of that greatest
of all remedies, DR.. Greene's Nervura.
Call on him if you can, but If that is in
convenient, write him fully about your
case. You car tell him in a letter many
things that you might forget in a person
al interview. 1t viii cost you nothing, as
DR.. Greene makes no charge for c%orsulta-
ton and advice"

planters is SO great for a woman cifttd

enough to earn lonoy with her brains,
that some wcll-to-do bachelors soon per-

for wives in South Africa is nevev equal
to the supply. The Boer woman Is not
beautiful. Her one charm is a pink ard
white complexion, which she tries hard

cakes, coffee and armchairs causes her
teeth to fall out and her hgure to lose its
youthful slimncss before she Is in her
prime. and many Boer women of forty
are SO fat and unwieldy that they can

brave-and they have no nerves! No wor-
