The Chicago, Milwaukee 4 st. Paul R'Y.

Many people un,cquainted with the
geography of the West imagine that be.
cause the names "Chicago, Milwaukee
and ST. Paul. are used in the corporate
title of the railway owning the short line
between Chicago and Omaha, they must
go via the cities of Milwaukee and St.
Paul to reach their destinatiou-and ii 1t
be Omaha or west thereof. This is mis-
taken idea. On a map the line running
directly east and west would look like
this:
There is nothing more simple than
that, and it is less than 500 miles between
Chicago and Omaha. Two through trains
daily in each direction with the best

Huntington Estate is Worth $4,000. OOO

New York, Feb. 1.-THE executors
of the estate of the late Coils P.
Huntington have deposited with Con-
troller Coler a certified check for $780,
900 to cover the amount of Inheritance
tax which will be collected by the
state. This deposit indicates the worth
of the estate at the time of testator's
death to have been approximately
$40. 100000, making its present worth
$50, ,00O,O
Action is taken at this time to save
per cent by making a deposit with
in specified period. Much comment
will result from the size OF the check,
which Indicates that Huntington's es-
tate in value will more than double
the estimate placed upon it at the
time of his death. When the will
was filed for probate last August, Rus
sell Sage expressed an opinion that
the Huntington fortune would fall
short of $3O,000,000. The executors
have Indicated that it would amount
to more than twice that sum.
Owing to the rise in railroad securi-
ties during the last six months, the
Huntington estate is now worth al
most, If not quite, $10,000,0O0 more
than it was when the will was offered
for probate.

He Was I'm Demand.

A merchant who lives on the upper
West Side Of the city was awakened
at 2 o'clock the other morning by the
continued ringing Of his front door bell
He tried to go to sleep despite the noise
but had to abandon the attempt when
series Of shouts coming from the
street in front Of his house assailed his
ears. Mingled with the shouts he heard
the voices Of men engaged in war OF
words. Jumping out of bed he ran tc
a window, threw it open and leaned
out. There were five men on the street
and seeing him they began to yell with
renewed vigor.
"What is wrongw shouted the mer
chant. The five tried to reply at the
same time and the only word the mer
chant understood was "Fire."
"What Is wrong?" he shouted again
One Of the five got his voice before the
others.
"Your store has burned out" he
screamed, "and I'll give you SIS more
than anybody else for the privilege OF
pasting bills on the front Of your build
ing."-New York Evening Sun.

College football, during the past sea-

than the students Of the Carlisle Indian
School, In the essentials Of manliness
and sportsmanlike conduct generally.
The games IN which they engaged were
as many and as fiercely contested as
those Of any other college team, and
the spectators, In some instance, were
neither so considerate nor so sympa-
thetic as they might have been. Yet
their games were exhibitions of clean,
straight football-such as all true lov-
ers Of the sport like to see. The um-
pire's decisions were never once Ques-
toned, and their defeats were accepted
with the spirit Of men who had done
their best, and who had, therefore,
neither excuses nor explanations to
offer. They have won a place for

Them

San Francisco, Feb. 16.-Frank j.

ographer in the employ of the Santa
Fe railroad in the freight depot at
Spear and Harrison streets, is among
the missing. So is large sum Of mon
ey due various employees OF the COM
pany, who intrusted the young man
with the collection of the checks re-
ceived for their monthly wages, which
they received yesterday morning.
In accordance with custom which
has prevailed in the yards for some
time Gavan was handed the checks Of
number of employees. Just how
many he received is not yet known,
as those most interested in the mat
ter have not yet reported to the main
Office Gavan took these checks to
the Bank of California and cashed
them about II o'clock. Since that
time he has not been seen or heard
from. The amount that he received on
the checks is estimated at about $3.50.
Detectives and employees who have
lost their money searched the city for
the missing cashier last night, but
were unable to locate him. The young
man has been in the employee of the
Santa Fe for the past five or six
months. He was transferred from Pu-
eblo, Colo, and roomed at 526 Harri-

Thompson, negro, 25 years of age,
occupies a cot at the county hospital
while the physicians extract from the
lower portion of his body quantity
of bird shot which he received from
the shotgun Of an irate orange grow
er. Thompson arrived in San Ber-
nardino via the brakebeam route from
Kansas City. He started to walk to
Cotton, and on the way he passed
along side an orange orchard. The
fruit was tempting and thinking no
one was about, he proceeded to help
himself.
The owner of the orchard observed
him in the act Of stealing, and went to
the house to get gun. He soon re-
turned and commanded Thompson to
halt. Instead, the latter run, and the
rancher fired. The shot crippled him,
but he kept on moving at "a lively rate.
Another shot was fired, and the negro
fell to the ground, where he remained
for two hours, when man passing by
in buggy found him.
The wounded man was taken to the
county hospital, where it was ascer-
tanned that he was badly peppered
with shot in both legs from his hips
down. He is painfully but not Sc
riously wounded.

Official Statement of the Fruit Car Deal

San Francisco, Feb. e16.-George B.
Robins, general manager of the Amer

thoritative statement regarding the big
refrigerator car line deal. He said:
armour & Co., have succeeded to
all of Mr.. Earl's refrigerator car in
terests, but for the more convenient
and economical management of the
business of the Continental Fruit ex-
press, which is thus taken over by the
Armour people, the corporate exist
ence of the Continental Fruit express,
will be continued, for the present year
at least. -
"The Earl cars will continue to be
known as the G. F. x. cars, and G. B.
Devices, who has been secretary of the
Continental Fruit company, will be-
come manager of the line in Califor-
MIA. Robert Graham will continue in
his present position of manager of the
Fruit Growers express on this coast.
"The transaction does place the Ar
mour people in full control of the re-
frigerator car business in the north
ern deciduous fruit district, although
the Santa Fe may endeavor to handle
more green fruit in its refrigerator
cars from points along it's line than it
has done in the past. I want to say,

Burlington Road to Come to the Coast

Denver, Colo, Feb. 1.-THE veteran
railway superintendent, Alexander
Campbell, for many years with the
Burlington road at McCook, Neb., said
today:
'"The Burlington is going to Salt
Lake and to the Pacific. No power
on earth can stop it. The great am
bition of Mr.. Holdredge, the manager,
of the road is to extend the lines to
the waters of the Pacific, and it will
not be long before his desire is accom-
plished. We are going to the coast,
and what is the use of arguing the
question. The talk about Mr.. Hold
redge meeting President Burt Of the
Union Pacific to listen to an argument
against extending the line to Salt Lake
and Ogden is nonsense Nobody could
argue with Holdredge on that subject,
for he knows it is going to be accom-
plished."

Drummer Commits Very Bold Drime

San Francisco, Feb. 16.-Driven to
desperation when his last cent had
been lost at the race tracks and pow
erty stared his wife and mother in the
face Marvin Ford, a commercial trav-
eler, yesterday committed one of the
boldest and most unprecedented high
way robberies ever placed on record
by the police department of this city.
In the broad light of monday he
held IN Lee Leong, Chinaman, on
Sacramento street, near Montgomery,
ind took from him bag containing
$216 in coin. The crime was accom-
plished by knocking the Mongolian
senseless with a piece of iron pipe in
sight of hundreds of people who were
passing the commercial district.
Ford was well dressed and of such
respectable appearance that pedestrians
were astonished by the daring act. Be-
fore anyone could interfere, the high
wayman had disappeared on Battery
street.

they all liked them very much. Here
it is: In the evening take the desired
amount of prunes wash them we'll, put
them in porcelain kettle, just cover
them with cold water, and let them
stand all night. In the morning put

Prunes to Be Eaten as FIGS.

Mrs. X. M. Tileston sends the fol-
lowing receipt for preparing prunes
to be eaten as figs to the San Jose Me-
curry, and it is here reproduced because
it certainly has great merit, and the
method Is SO simple that any one can
use it:
"Put the prunes in wire basket
and dip them into a kettle of boi!ing
water. Hold them in it two or three
minutes. Then take them out aud
pour them on cloth and pack them
while hot in tin cans. Press them in
well. Seal the cans and set away for
a month or longer. They will keep a
long time and become very tender and
delicious. L prefer the quart can to
keep them in, as they dry out soon
after the air gets to them
Accompanying this recipe for pre-
pairing prunes to be eaten uncooked
like figs was paper box of the fruit
prepared in this way in 1899 and just
opened, says the editor of the Mercury.
They were tender and delicious, hav-
ing considerable of the flavor of
pressed figs, but being pleasantly free
from the annoying seeds. The flesh
pit easily. AS dried fruit to be eaten
without preparation of any kind this
is certainly superior to anything to
be purchased on the market. Every
housewife can fix few cans for her
self and have them on hand. Common
fruit jars are as good as cans. Any
thing will do that is air tight and
absorbent. Old prunes bought in
the market may be used as well as
those newly dried. II. too dry they
should be soaked just a little longer.
An understanding of this manner of
preparing or preserving, prunes ought
to increase their consumption i'm
mensely. Let the housewife once
learn that she can herself in a few
minutes "put up" prunes in this way
and she will be certain to add them
to her stock of household canned
fruit

however, that 1t is not the purpose or
the policy Of the Armour people to
take advantage Of this new condition
to the detriment of the fruit growers
interests. You can say positively that
there will be no advance in refriger-
ator charges"
Mr.. Robbins added that the purchase
Of the Earl car line by Armour &
Co., entirely divorced the fruit ship
ping business from the car line busi-
ness. The service in general will be
improved, by the erection of several
new icing plants.

Various reasons are given for the fact
that married people as rule live longer
than the unmarried. The Literary Di-
gest contains an interesting extract
from an article on this subject by DR..
Prinzing, German scientist. DR..
Prinzing shows that the married are
healthier than the unmarried, and ex-
posed to fewer dangers. The mutual
care of husband and wife for each
other, and Of the children for their par
ents, If there be children, and various
other factors are noted as making for
long life among married people. But
one important factor in prolonging life
is not mentioned, though it is probably
the most important, namely, the will
to live, Etis.. A., LAdch more powerful
with man or woman on whom others
are intimately dependent. How often
will man or a woman threatened with
illness fight against and overcome it,
for the sake Of the marital partner or
the helpless children; whereas single
person would probably give UP to the
attack. This idea that sickness and
perhaps death can be postponed by a
determined effort on the part of the in
dividual is gaining ground, and the un-
doubted power Of mental action over
bodily conditions lends 1t strong sup
port We are still only at the threshold
of knowledge on the subject. But the
facts already noticed show that 1t is a
subject worthy Of our most thorough
Investigation.
