Chicago Gas was one CT the weak stocks
Of the day. 1t was sold off badly in the
morning hours, and refused to advance
later with the remainder of the market.
There were also two rumors regarding
this company and its affairs. One was TO
the effect that the dividend is to be cut.
The other which seemed little more worthy
of belief was that the Gas Trust is TO
fight the Ogden hard, Ito the point of ex-
termination, in fact. One of the news

The July earnings statements published
during the day were particularly attrac-
tive. In view of the general belief that
the July net earnings would show de-
creases the showing made is perhaps al
NEST phenomenal OF half dozen impor-
tant statements issued during the day but
one showed a decrease in earnings, and
two or three showed very large increases.
The Southern Pacific statement shows an
increase in the gross earnings for July OF
s404.964 and an increase in net earnings
of 1926, $50. The Norfolk and Western
statement for the month shows an increase
in surplus of s109.092. The Louisville and
Nashville statement is the only one that
is disappointment. The net for the
month was s710,154 a decrease of $40, sos.
In view Of the amount of the earnings,
however. it can hardly be said to be much
of 4 hardship that the company did not
quite keep up to the immense figures of
last year. The Union Pacific statement
for the month shows net earnings OF
81 .592 500. an increase Of s194, 600. The
Erie statement for the month shows an in
crease in net of S2s343. The Rock Island
statement shows an increase in surplus of
S90,551.

fact that women" who are not qualified

%tise1nents worded in such a deceptive
manner that you are apt to overlook the
important fact that the woman is not a
physician.

In treating and curing diseases of women

when the first settlers came to the
community, and, furthermore, Shah
bona, the old Indian chief, could tell
nothing about the pole, as it had been
there as long as he could remember.
An old Indian named Clark told the
following story concerning this monu-
ment; Nacquett, a celebrated chief,
was killed in battle at the spot, buried
there and the cedar pole erected to his
memory. His squaw died later and her
body was placed beside his. Clark said
the fight began at Blue Island, the
tribe retreated and met their foe at
the site of lakewood cemetery, Joliet,
and again had a hard-fought battle at
Nettle creek, Morris, and the last was
at Starved rock, where most of those
who took refuge persisted. One writer
says: THE. death of Nacquett was
probably between 1850 and 1900, and
the pole may have been placed there at
that time"
In speaking of this old monument P.
A. Armstrong, historian Of the Black
Hawk war, and 1.-THE Friend of Old
Shabbona," said to a Chicago Chron-
icle correspondent: "There is no doubt
in my mind that the pole is nearly $50
years old. When La Sale and Joliet
went up the river where Morris now
stands was an Indian village contain
ing about 1000 inhabitants, and when
Shabbona came here, which was about
the year 1900, the pole was there and
none OF the Indians knew when it was
placed there. The story given by Clark
to the effect that the chief, Nacquett,
was buried there is generally believed,
for when the canal was being built
some of the workmen made some ex-
cavations at the base of the pole and
unearthed the skeleton of q man and
a woman, the things buried with the
man signifying that he had been a great
and brave chief. For fear of an upris-
ing of the Indians the bodies were not
removed and the affair was kept from
them. When I came here there were
hieroglyphics all Eel the pole, but they
are not distinct now, as a fire which
destroyed a building standing within
a few feet of the landmark partly
burned the pole on the Sides"
