BUILDING A NEW ROAD.

"By January of next year," says
Burlington official, ''there will not be
left a vestige of the old track between
Chicago and Omaha, except a few
stretches of five or six miles each. The
entire line for 80 miles west of Chicago,
has been rebuilt except the stretch of
five miles of track near Ottumwa, and
the contract for this was awarded few
days ago. 1t is estimated that the aver
age cost per mile of the new track will
be in the neighborhood of 800. 900.
Several steam shovels and about $50
men will be given employment for more
than year. In many places the origin
al right of way has been abandoned,
and the rails have been laid a mile, and
in some cases, a mile and half away,
from their former position. 1t is likely
that saving of four or five miles in the
distance between Chicago and the Mis-
souri, river will be effected by the new
track. The principal improvement for
the company, however, will be the
elimination of curves and the reduction
of grades. The work now being done
near Murray is of enormous extent.
The cost will run into the millions of
dollars. The present line will be aban-
doned for one which shoots straight
over the valleys and through the hills,
making a reduction of about three
quarters of mile in the distance and
giving an almost gradeless track"

The National Biscuit Company, which
has more than $23,OOO,OOO of preferred

tors and officers. To all it's employees
the National Biscuit Company says:
"Uneeda share of our preferred stock
This company will buy you one share
and as many more as you are prepared
to partially pay for whenever you apply
for the same and accompany the appli-
cation with five dollars to be receipted
for on account of purchase. An account
will be opened between you and the
company, and all your payments made
against your purchase of stock will be
credited to this account. On each par

you four per cent interest dating from

made. When you have paid up in full

DIED OF GRIEF.

Akron, O., July 22.-Mrs. Charles
Zimmerman died at the county mfr
mary yesterday. This is one of the
most pathetic cases ever brought to the
attention of the poor authorities of this
city.
A few months ago her husband was
sent to the penitentiary at Columbus
for his connection with the riot here
last August, and since that time Mrs,
Zimmerman has been grieving herself
to death. Consumption was the indi-
rect cause, but the physicians state that
grief really caused her death.
For several weeks o. movement has
been on foot to secure parole or par
don for her husband In order that she
might see him, but 1t was too late COM
ing, and she died before 1t was granted.
For days she had kept alive upon the
thought that he would be pardoned,
but she finally gave up hope, and sank
rapidly until the end came.

MAKES SMUGGLING EASY
Difficulty In the Way yof Collect
ing Tax on Porto Riean
Tobacco.

Washington, July 20.--Commission
er Yerkes, of the internal revenue bu.
reau, at present is busily engaged in
devising feasible scheme for the col.
lection of the internal revenue tax on
cigars, cigarettes, rum, etc, brought
into the United States from Porto
Rico after the president issues his
proclamation declaring that free trade
exists between the two countries.
Under the existing laws internal rev.
enue stamps can be purchased only
from collectors of internal revenue
or their deputies. and as Porto Rico is
not collection district, no one there
is authorized to sell stamps and hence
the difficulty of arranging q system
hy which exporters may procure
stamps without Inconvenience. An.
other difficulty is encountered in the
fact that cigars, etc, brought in from
Porto Rico not being subject to Gus
toms duties, may be landed at any
point or port in the United States
whether 1t be port Of entry or not
and the danger that large quantities of
goods may be smugsled into this coun.
try Is very great. II is probable that
congress will be asked at the next
session to make Porto Rico an internal
revenue collection district, or that 1t
be annexed to some one of the collec.
tion districts in the southern states.
Until this Is done it Is expected that
an effective administration of the laws
will he accomplished only with some
difficulty.

Wiloughby, O., July 2O.--After a
legal battle extending over a period
of about three years, the Willoughhy
annexation case was decided Friday
the village losing by the unanimous
vote of the board of commissioners
The proposition was to annex two
tracts of adjacent territory, one east
of the Chagrin river,the other lying to
tile south and west of the village. The
two tracts comprise about 400 acres.
The residents of the outlying districts
have been practically unanimous in
their opposition to the scheme and The
fight has been bitter one on both
sides, nearly all of the legal talent of
the county having been arrayed on one
side or the other. The decision was
rendered on the ground that the resi-.
dents Of the territory to be annexed
would receive no benefit by annexation
while their tax rate would be more
than doubled.

Derby, Conn, July 20.-The feeling
against a sweeping injunction granted
by Judge eager in machinists' strike is
running SO high among all classes of
citizens that an outbreak is not improb-
able. Three men arrested for attempt
ing to peacefully pursuade a new union
man to quit work at Farrell Foundry
and Machine company are treated like
heroes. The case of Thomas Davis, 4
waiter, has added greatly to public in
iignation. Davis was overheard by
Deputy Sheriff Parmelee to remark,
"The scabs have come to town" and
was promptly arrested, although he had
not spoken in a loud voice or to the
ynowd. He was fined $50 and costs,
$62 so in all, by Police Judge Bryant.
IT want to add" continued the judge.
"that if any one else comes before me
on this charge he will be not only
fined $50, but will be sent to jail for
six months" Davis's fine was paid by
public subscription. A general chain
of business or family relationship con-
meets those opposed to the strikers. The
counsel for the Farrell company is law
firm at Wooster.

state, Stark has a smaller per cent of
divorces compared with marriages
than many other counties. The clerk Of

shows that during the year ending
June 30 there were 10 divorce cases
commenced. There were 1872 disposed
of, and AZ still pending. Nineteen
were refused and 1913 granted. During
the year according to figures secured
from the probate judges office, there
were S43 marriage licenses issued.

divorce to about every eight and one

statistics show that for every five
married one is divorced, and in Cleve.

Cured in the yard at the rear of the
residence of Mr.. Edward Bockius, at
202 East Lake street. Officer Pyers
was in the square when q telephone
message was received at police head
quarters from the Bockius residence
that some one had been trying to effect
an entrance to the house and asking
that an officer be sent up to investi.
gate. Pyers was at once notified and
hurried to the house. Twenty min
utes had elapsed from the time the
word was sent in and the members
of the house had been up and around
the house. They supposed that the
burglar had taken warning and fled
but the officer concluded to make a lit
tie investigation anyhow and see what
he could find. With that in view he
went around the house and began a
search of premises. He had not long
to look before he saw man trying to
hide In some thick weeds and startcd Il
for him. The fellow started to run
and the officer called to him to halt.
When he refused to stop the officer
pulled his gun and let go. Instead Of
surrendering the fellow turned and
took a shot at Pyers. He then ran
around the house and made his es.
cape through the front yard. The
night was SO dark that the man could
hardly be more than distinguished and
the policeman's shot was largely at
random. The burglar, however, had
a comparatively good mark to shoot
at, as Pyers was directly In the light
between him and the lighted window
Pyers started to pursue but the fel
low was out of sight before the officer
could get around the house. He says
that II another officer had been present
to guard the other side of the house
the capture of the man would have
been easy, as there Is no exit in the
rear of the yard and he was bottled
up. The members of the family were
much excited and alarmed over the af
fair.
