Tramps a Nuisance.
The Importance of The railroad
tramp nuisance is indicated by the
fact that it is made >.Ae subject of
the leading article in the investors
supplement" of the Commercial and
II lnancial Chronicle an issue of over
$50 pages. The estimate of JOSHUA
Flynt that 10000 steal rides nightly
and 10000 more are lettering around
railroad yards is quoted together with
his estimate that each of the 10000
tramps in the country travels on an
average of fifty miles day, which,
for 100 days in the year, means 3,OOO,-
900 miles Of free transportation annu-
ally which at 2 cents mile would
represent paying travel of 100000
The free rides are, however, of slight
Importance compared with the extern
sive pilfering of freight and personal
damage claims arising through acct.
dents to tramps while trespassing.
The Commercial and Industrial
Chronicle advises railroads to adopt
lAe plan of the Pennsylvania road,
which employs regular force of SO
men to keep the oars and yards
clear Of the undesirable class. The
success of the plan is shown in that
the company pays $4,000 year less
for it's police arrangements than be-
fore it adopted it. The adoption of
the plan by all important roads
would not only be of benefit to them,
but 70 the country. 1t is well known
that most tramps are what they are
partly because of hatred of work and
partly because they ..Ae to travel.
The removing OIL easy faculties for
transportation would reduce the nm
Der enormously.

Dear Readers, No Patent Medicine

A Brick Is a Brick.

Ad.
A Brick Is a Brick.
Well, yes? But some are better
than others. What do you want?
We are making brick to sell, but
that is not all, we want to suit you.
When your mason sends in an order
for a chimney job say so, if for foun-
dation work say SO, if for any other
purpose say SO. Why?
A soft brick for your stove pipe
to your roof is better because soft
brick is not as good a conductor of
heat as hard one is. 1t costs you
some less. A good hard brick is bet
ter from the roof up, the heat there
j snot SO intense and the hard brick
will stand the weather. Why, bless
you l saw brick in a chimney that
was SO soft the ants had built nest
in the top of it. Ha! Ha! You
laugh, We'll prove it.
Now if you want foundation brick
we have them. Veneer? Yes, come
and see. Re-pressed brick? Yes.
Just finished burning, will tell you
more in our next.
We have a team of our own and
will deliver brick as long as there Is
any call for them. Have your mason
figure with us. Moderate prices for
delivery.

ers now or later, first door north :f

CORN SHOOTS UP
FOUR CENTS A BUSHEL.
Young Chicago speculator Gives the
Board of Trade Men a Scare by
a Quiet Deal.

Chicago, Nov. 19.-November corn
was quoted nearly four cents higher
than Saturdays close soon after the
opening of the board today. 1t sold
for few minutes at 43A cents, a
straight advance of 3A cents. George
H. Phillips, a young speculator, who
came into prominence about six
months ago, is said to have bought be-
tween five and six million bushels for
this months delivery, and as there
are only about 100000 bushels of all
grades in Chicago elevators, fears OF:
bad squeeze made the active market
for time. Later the price dropped
back, however, to a point nearly level
with Saturdays close. Phillips is said
to have bought the bulk of his corn at
between SO and 81 cents.

WAS CUT IN TWO
BY A CIRCULAR SAW,
Davis County Man Commits Suicide in
j Horrible Manner-QuietIy Made
Preparations.

Bloomfield, Nov 19-(Special.)-
Lewis Westhoff,, of Stiles, committed
suicide Friday by throwing himself on
swiftly revolving circular wood saw.
The news of the terrible suicide reach.
ed this place this afternoon and has
created intense excitement.
Westhoff was widower and lived
near Stiles, small place about twelve
or fifteen miles south of Bloomfield.
He, together with number of other
men were engaged in saving wood
near Stiles, using for the purpose a
circular wood saw propelled by power.
Friday afternoon Westhoff was work
ing in front of the saw, but suddenly
stopped and went to the front OF the
machine. He quietly buttoned up his
coat and without moments warning
threw himself headlong on to the swift.
Ily moving saw. His body was cut
squarely in two, some of his organs
falling to the ground.
No reason is assigned for the act
except that perhaps he had become
despondent. He had been addicted to
the use of intoxicants but on the day
he took his life, had not been drink
t ing to the knowledge of the men he
was working with. The day previous
to the awful self inflicted crime, ii
had been noticed that he was acting
strangely but at that time the men
did not know what his intentions
were.
The remains were buried in the
Catholic cemetery about five miles
south of Stiles Saturday. He leaves
four children, two boys and two girls
Mr.. Westhoff was about 40 wears o1
age.
