Bank notes are an important factor in
the transaction of business willie used as
circulating medium, and after they are
called in they still contribute to carry
ing on the business Of the world, for they
are reduced to pulp and then are trans
formed into paper car wheels which go
humming over the rails bearing the light
ming express. The treasury department
at Washington destroys between $450,
100000 and $50o,0O0,Oo0 of paper mon
ey a year. After being reduced to pulp,
the mass is treated with an alkal1, which
extracts the ink and is then converted
into bales and shipped to car wheel man
ufacturers.

Even New Ulm could not withstand
the spirit of speculation which filled the
air during the past week. Some of the
boys made little money and some of
them---well the less said upon this sub
ject the better. The point. l want to call
attention to is the almost universal de-
sire to get something easy. The tenden-
cy of the present day is toward getting
"easy money" And it's all right but 1t
takes level head,a thorough knowledge
of the ramlications of the stock market
to make money in speculation, and
blamed sight longer head to know
enough to quit when you have enough

BIG SHOOT is OFF
Live Bird Contest Proposed by c. r.
stephens is Adam
doned.

Failure to secure the required
number of entries before the time
limit expired, the proposed live bird
shoot contest which was to have
been held at Watson's Park, Burn
side, under the direction of &. X.
Stephens, of Moline, has caused the
event to be called off. The fixture
was to have been held Monday, Dec.
o. The time limit for the fifty en-
tries, which number was agreed up
on to participate in the shoot, ex-
pired Nov. % with only forty-six at
hand.
The shoot was to have been held
under Grand American Handicap
rules and thousands of dollars in
cash and merchandise hung up for
prizes. The forty-six entries re-
ceived by Stephens came from var
ious parts of the country, and it was
expected that the contest would be
the biggest of it's kind held about
Chicago in a long time.
Mr.. Stephens had innumerable
promises from shooters to partici
pate in the contest, but could not
reach them. He announces he prob
ably will arrange for the fixture to
be held some time in the spring.

FOOD FACTS.
How to Properly Feed the Body.

Physicians nowadays realize how
necessary it is that the food contain
the right elements that the body re-
quires to rebuild itself, and replace
the loss that occurs each day from
activity and energy.
If one lifts an arm, that means the
expenditure of a small amount of
energy, and the burning up, so to
speak, of certain deposits from the
food. This means certain loss,
and this loss must he made up each
day from food. If the food does not
contain the things required, nature
hoists n flag of distress; aches, ails,
sickness of some sort sets in, mean
ing that there is something lacking
in the food.
The reason physicians so general
ly advise the use of Grape-Nuts
Breakfast Food is that they know
from what it is made and what il
contains. The medical Journals in
various parts of the world have Civ
en- the analysis. The famous Lon
don Lancet" went so far as to make
very careful analysis by it's own
chemist. Its remarks are worth re-
peating.
THE preparatory process undoubt-
edly converts the food constituents
into a much more digestible condi-
tion than in the raw cereals. This is
evident from the remarkable solu-
bility of the preparation. No less
than one half of il being soluble in
water. The soluble portion contains
chiefly deXtrin and no starch. Ac-
cording TO our analysis the follow

The features worthy of note in
this analysis are the excellent pro-
portion of Proteids and mineral mat
ter. and soluble carbohydrates.
The mineral matter is rich phOs-
phoric acid. Our analysis shows that
il is a nutritive of high order, since
IL contains the constituents of a
complete food in the right proper
tons, and in an easily assimilable
state"
Notice the carbohydrate total is
about IS per cent. These produce
energy and warmth. The phosphor-
ic acid in the mineral matter comes.
as do all of the other ingredients,
from the field grain, not one particle
being introduced as a drug.
Physicians know that the soft mat
ter in the brain and nerve centers
throughout the body are made from
the elements of albumen acted upon
by phosphate of potash. Albumen
is a very common article in almost
every food, but phosphate of potash
does not exist in all foods, nor is IL
found i'm easily digestible form al
ways However, in Grape-Nuts these
elements exist, and are presented to
the body in an easily digestible form,
and explain the reason why users
feel the new spring of life, the brain
and nerve power increase, after they
have been using Grape-Nuts for a
time. There is n reason for it, The
doctors know it, therefore they pre-
scribe Grape-Nuts.

FIRST NIGHT SHOW
Brother Officers" or Quo
vadis" Offered by Mr..
Johnston.
PREMATURE OPENING Is OPPOSED
Number of Subscriptions That Have
Not Yet Been det-Pay-
ment Urged.

There was a largely attended meet
ing of the general theatre commit
tee at the Rock Island Club yester-
day afternoon TO confer with Pro-
moter George III. Johnston in refer
ence to the formal opening of the IL
linois. c. T. Kindt, of Chamberlin,
Kindt & Co., lessees of the new
house, was also present. They
seemed confident the theatre could
he in readiness 10 DAYS hence. al
though it was likely there would be
j hitch in the matter of the radia-
tors. But both Mr.. Johnston and
Maj w. II. Channon, of Channon.
Perry d Co., who have the steam
heating contract, were of the belief
that this obstacle could be overcome
by temporary radiation.
Two Plays offered.
Two plays were submitted to the
committee as appropriate for the
first accommodation Gould in
Brother Officers" and "Quo Nadis,' -
which could be secured on Dec. ~
and Dec. IA, respectively. The
Brother Officers" engagement was
at once considered out of the ques-
.tion, as il was in conflict with
number of other entertainments on
the same date, chief of which. in a
public way, was the Tri-City Press
club lecture.
Quo Nadis" appeared to be re-
garded as an acceptable attraction,
but some objection was offered to
Saturday night. So all things con-
sidered it was deemed prudent not
to attempt to open the house prema-
turely, it being realized that tenn
porary radiators would subject the
management to- criticism if not prop
erly decorated, and Mr.. Johnston.
for his own part, said he would not
use them unless they were painted.
All this would involve expense the
committee would like to spare Mr..
j ohnston.

To Escape Damage.

Strong / beams will be fastened to
the bridge and to the sill of the dam,
and these metal beams will hold the
gates in place. An ingenious safety
hook invented by Capt. Wheeler will
fasten the beams to the bridge by
means of which any beam may be re-
leased and swung down stream or
cast loose entirely in case an ice Jam
or floating logs and debris threaten
to damage the structure.
The gates and their arrangement
will be the peculiar feature of the
dam. The eight spans of the bridge
will be divided into thirty-seven gate
spaces to each span, each space to be
closed by four gates, making 1854
gates in all. The four gates will be
placed one above the other, bottom
gate three feet high, second gate
three feet high, third gate one foot
and top gate six inches, making seven
feet six inches. The two foot sill at
the bottom and six inches OF water
flowing over the top gates will raise
the surface of the water ten feet
above the bed of the river.

Railway News

James j. Hill will retire from the
presidency of the Great Northern
Railroad company, which he has
dominated for many years. He will
be succeeded in the position by his
son, James Y. Hill.
This move has been forced upon
Mr.. Hill by reason of the fact that
his many official positions demand
that he spend the greater part of his
time in New York city. He will take
house there and live there, though
probably he will maintain his legal
residence in st. Paul.
y few years ago Mr.. Hill was a
one-company man, but lately he has
become director of the Erie, the
Northern Pacific and the. Burlington
road, the Chase National bank and
the Manhattan Trust company. and
finally director and president of the
Northern Securities company. To
continue his duties as president of
the Great Northern railroad would
require his presence in St. Paul oft
ener than he can afford to be there.
+. II. Hill has been appointed
cashier at the Milwaukee freight Of
flee To succeed f. c. Merrill, who
has been promoted to agent. The
new cashier was formerly bill clerk
at the office of the D., II. l. & y. w.
in this city and upon the practical
abolition of the company's freight
business here was given a similar
position in Moline.
Hereafter station waiting-rooms
on the Burlington system are TO pre-
sent more cleanly appearance.
General passenger orders have been
sent out by the passenger depart
ment of this road to all agents di-
recting them to remove from walls
of waiting-rooms all orders, instruc-
tions and advertising matter of
every description.
In place of the matter to be thrown
out a framed set of rules and regula-
tons relating to tickets and check
ing of baggage will be displayed.
I his will be the only thing in future
that will adorn the walls of Burling
ton station waiting-roomS.

Wants subrcriptIon. F.Irst.

I Besides, Mr.. Johnston objects to
opening the house until the sub
scriptions are all met. In this course
he can hardly be blamed. The list
of those delinquents who do not
seem disposed to pay, while consid-
erably diminished since the last
meeting of the committee, was again
read by Mr.. Johnston's assistant, and
some of the excuses that were Of
fered for failure to meet the pledges
were both surprising and amusing.
The committee feels that the sub
scriptiOns that remain unpaid should
be promptly Ihet, not only for the
honor of those making them, but for
the reputation of the city and the
good faith of the general committee.
Of course this does not apply to
those il is known will meet their
pledges when they are presented to
them. IL merely refers to those
who are delaying the whole enter
prise by failing to fulfill their obli-
cations.
