new CHECKING PLAN
LTIIWAUKEE INACCURACIES VERI-
CHECK SYSTEM ON ALL
FREIGHT CARS
HELPS TO TRACE LOST GOODS
Unprecedented Freight Traffic for
Month of October-IllinOis Gem
trail Earnings-Other
Railroad News.

The vericheck system, inaugurated by
the Milwaukee road, went into effect on
the La Crosse division on Tuesday, and
was given its first trial under the super
vision of c. w. Wilkinson, of the freight
department at Chicago. This system
was devised to prevent freight being mis-
laid and lost, and the results are very
promising. The plan consists of a tin
box placed in every freight car The
loader, before trucking the freight into
the car, presents himself at the window
of the clerk who gives him small
card upon which is description of the
pieces of freight, and the name of the
station to which each piece is to be
shipped The card is placed in the tin
box after the freight has been placed in
the car, and in that way goods which
are lost can be more easily traced
One advantage of the vericheck is the
prevention of theft on the part of the
leaders. The clerk knows who took the
freight into the car, and in case it is lost
he can tell whether or not it was
stolen by inspecting the tin box and find
ms whether the card was placed there
These boxes will be placed in every
freight car in the Milwaukee service.

which is unusual, as I used to have
at least two in one month, and some
times two in week. The first
symptoms were a numbness at the
finger tips, which moved up the arm
to the shoulder, and in the mouth and
tongue. I then got deadly sick with
severe vomiting and then the head
ache commenced. The pains were ter
rible and I used to think it would
drive me crazy. would have given
almost anything for relief. The pain
lasted all day and all night, some
times two days. Last summer 1 saw
Ripans Tabules advertised so much

a five-cent carton and obtained relief
at once. I took them steadily for
some time, and now if 1 feel at all
sick or think I am going to be sick,

only helps me, but stops the headache

whatever of power and authority the pas

LINEMAN WITH A CAMERA
Gets Snap Shot of Alleged Strikers,
Who Attack Him.

CHICAGO, Oct. IF. E. Farnum,
while making repairs on telephone wire
today, under the guardianship of a spe-
cial policeman, was attacked by seven
men whom he claims he recognized as
striking linemen. Farnum, like other
non union men, carried a camera for the
purpose of taking snap shots of any
one found injuring the telephone COM
pany's property. He quickly got focus
on the crowd and pressed the button.
This further angered the seven men,
and they threatened the amateur photog-
rapher, who thereupon drew a revolver
and fired shot over their heads The
men started to run. followed by two
wagon loads of policemen, the alarm
having been turned in. -Four of the men
We're captured. Farnum said he believed
he had secured a good picture of all
the men, and the police say when the pic
ture is developed they will get the re-
mainder of the men.
The linemen, $50 in number went on
strike a month ago 1t has always been
difficult to identify strikers charged with
violence, and the eXperient of equipping
non union employees with cameras is a
novelty likely to prove of practical use.

FREIGHT TRAFFIC HEAVY.
Unprecedented Record of Business
for Month of October.

This year promises to be more than a
Fecord-breaker in Northwest railroad bus
tness. Freight traffic is unusually heavy
at the present time. An official of the
Milwaukee road said yesterday that while
in former years August and September
were the heaviest months of the year,
that the indications are that the month
of October will have both previous
months badly beaten in this respect Pas
senger traffic is also very heavy. The
travel through the Union depot the past
ten days has been steadier and heavier
than at any time during the year, except
ing such times as convention excursions
were on.

Dear Sir: Pursuant to your instruc-

would respectfully state, that we have
examined the Madison School Building
with view to placing two school rooms
in attic, and in our opinion the space is
not suitable; the ceiling and walls are
low. and in May and September the
rooms will be insufferable.
we do recommend that a frame struc-
ture containing two rooms be constructed
on the front corner of the lot.
We have also examined the light in the
Jefferson School Building, and do not find
a room with one-fifth of the floor area
for light. The top story has but one
tenth, and we therefore recommend that
the windows in the top story be enlarged
at once to give the light that is absolutely
necessary for good work, providing mon
