oTTUMwA THE LOSER.
Neiehborhood of Ten Families Will Go
to Charlton.

tErom Saturdays Daily.l
A new time card for the Charlton
st. Joseph branch has been prepared
and will probably reach this city late
tonight taking effect Sunday. The
card will be used as supplement to
the card now in force, and provides
Tor two new freight trains each way
daily, between Charlton and st. JOS
eph These trains are put on to ac-
commodate the shipment of meat from
st. Joseph, which has heretofore gone
over the Hannibal and st. Joseph to
eastern markets, and which was spok-
en- of in yesterdays Courier. Upon
the ability of the Burlington TO make
schedule time with this freight over
this route probably means the ques-
ton of whether or not the change will
be permanent
Five train and five engine crews will
be sent from this city to Charlton to
take charge of the new runs. Two of
the crews will go there tomorrow and
the remainder Monday. AS yet it has
not been determined who will get the
new runs. Since it looks as though
the new runs might be permanent ii
is said several of the old men have
asked to be given them. 1t is for
this reason that the arrangement of
the crews has not been given out. A
final decision will be made tomorrow
and at that time it will be learned
who will be transferred. 1t is prob.
able that if any married men are sent
to Charlton, they will not move THEN
| families there until after some time
has elapsed in order to determine il
| the runs will remain permanent or
| not.
Two engines will be sent from this
city to the branch. They will be of the
small eight-wheel class, and it has not
been decided which ones will be sent
as yet The way cars for the new
crews will go to Charlton on No. 79
tomorrow to be ready for use Monday
morning.
The time of the new trains has not
been announced, but it is understood
they will be fast 1t is said the new
meat runs will average at least thirty
miles per hour. A copy of the new
time card has not been received in the
city as yet, and the time of the new
trains arriving and departing at divi
sion points is not known.

The carriers buy their own shoes

The pay of the rural carriers is
from $500 to $500 per annum for a

rier shall be of good character and
temperate habits. No restrictions
are imposed as to sex. Some very
efficient carriers east and west are

give bond in the sum of $500 for the
faithful performance of his duties.

OF the people: l have heard men ON
the floor of the house call him the

A Gigantic Task.
He learned where his duty lay, and
then he was different man When
the war with Spain hogan he nailed

office. and took charge of the army
and navy of the United States. In 100
days the protocol was signed and hap

future responsibilities, and his heart
was heavy as almost alone, he took
up the task of conducting the country
in the new departure. He gave Amer

The Powers.
Everyone said that the powers
should be consulted, but the President
informed the powers that the Cuban
question was an American matter, and

A PALPABLE HIT.
What a Well Known Critic Says About
BeauX and Bellies

| Wnat a well known Critlc says About
Beaux and Bellies.
In commenting upon the performance
of the "Beaux and Bellies Octette,''
which is to be the topliner Of next
weeks bill at the popular Poll theater,
that well known dramatic writer, Colo
mel George F. Warren, of the Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle, recently said:
"A hit-a palpable hit! That, in sub
stance tells the story of the first APP
\ pearance on any stage of the 'Beaux
and Bellies Octette' at the Cook opera
| house this week. And well merited was
the triumph achieved by the clever per
| formers, for they present one of the
| most novel, refined, attractive, charm
ing musical sketches ever given in
| vaudeville theater. Four exceptionally
charming, handsomely gowned young
women, assisted by four correctly
dressed young men, collectively sing
and dance in manner so finished and
fascinating that the audience was rous-
ed yesterday afternoon to applaud thun-
derously and spontaneously. And Of
truth nobody help being thoroughly
pleased with the joyous little sketch af-
ter seeing so many performers who can
be recommended for nothing more than
the ability to squat a song and an en-
piric knowledge of histrionism; it Is a
pleasure and a relief to see such clever
persons in turn so strongly bearing
the marks of intelligence refinement
and originality. Mr.. MacConnell de-
serves quantities of credit for the
bright, tuneful music he has provided
for his sketch, and this is by far the
best act that has been given at Cooks
this season"
Augmenting this decided novelty will
be a bright bill, including Carroll john
son, the minstrel; Ranzo and Arno, Mr..
and Mrs Jimmie Barry, James T. Kelly
and company, the Green Trio, Ged
Gray, comedian; Dempsey, Murdoch
and company and views of Ireland in

In different parts of the country
large business firms are planning to
give excursions to their employees to
the Pan American Exposition at Buffa-
10 next summer. In many of the man
.ufactories the employees are organizing
to go in a body to the exposition. The
employees of a large shoe manufacture
ing concern of Brooklyn have formed
an association called the Mutual Aid
society, and are laying aside money to
bear the expenses of a tive-day' excur-
and Niagara Falls next summer. 1t is
expected that at least one thousand
persons will participate in the journey.
