scheme For Selling a Farm and Its
Dramatic Climax.
"Some years ago. said the narrator.
ian oil boom hit Litchfield. Ills, ana |
everybody for miles around was seen
shifting for oil and every stranger sns-
pected of being an expert looking Tor
good thing. An old farmer named Loo
mis- had i big place three miles out or
town. which would have been a fortune
for him had he not been possessed or q
mania for swapping. manifest In per-
enniaI attempt to trade off his land
for twice its value.
when the boom was at the top notch,
LOOMS received a visitor who took so
much interest in the farm, so liked It's
appearance, location, etc, that the OLD
farmer scented a petroleum man anu
saw visions of incalculable wealth;
but. being a shrewd man, LOOMS dlo
not care TO take any unnecessary
/ chances with Providence, and on the
| Quiet he sent the hired man out the
| back way with orders TO dump the ker-
\ oscne can into the well. The visitor
i liked the entire place, inspected the
harm. the chicken yard and then, as IL
by chance. asked for a drink of water.
/ "I,oomfs was waiting for that ana
hauIed ND a trimming bucket before
the mans own eyes and poured him out
gourdfuI of liquid with fine. opa-
descent scum upon It. The visitor smell
ed the stuff. tasted II. made n wry face

HEADED THIS WAY,
Burlington in control of Midland.
Big Through Passenger List
Turned to Midland Every
Notwithstanding
the Wind.

A very quiet rumor is going the rounds
today among some OF tho local railway
men, which states that the Burlington
railway has secured control OF the Colo
RADIO Midland railway
There is something in the wind, as
Thursday night there were tifty-seven
through passengers ticketed over the
Burlington. Ordinarily these passen-
gers would have gone via. the Rio
Grande, but as the alliance now be-
tween the Missouri Pacific and the Rio
Grands is 80 close, it stands to reason
that the Burlington does not propose to
throw any business into the hands OF
the Missouri Pacific.
For years the Burlington and the
Rio Grande have practically worked
hand In hand. Business from the west
which came over the Rio Grande was
routed via. the Burlington. Now that
the Missouri Pacific stands to receive all
tho traffic Of the Rio Grande which it
can secure. the Burlington does not pro-
pose to give business to the Rio Grande
which will aid the Missouri Pacific.
For a month past, or since the first
announcement that the control OF the
Rio Grande and the Western had passed
into the hands OF the Goulds, there have
been various rumors what the Burling-
ton proposed to do. They must have
an outlet to Ogden In order to enjoy
some OF the business OF the Pacific
roads, which mako that the gateway to
the east.
1t has been said that the Burlington
would build through Wyoming to Salt
Lake City. II they secure control OF
the Colorado Midland that changes the
situation entirely and makes the paral-
leling OF the Rio Grande Western only
a question OF time. 1t has often been
asserted that this would be done some
day; it may DO nearer than the people
have any idea OF, at this moment.
1t would be less of an undertaking and
. more profitable one for the Burlington
to take hold of road like the Midland,
which epjoys considerable traffic in this
state, and build line to Salt Lake
from here, than to build an entire road
from Denver to Salt Lake City.
II the Burlington should obtain con-
troll Of tho Midland there would be con-
siderable change in the railway situation
at Grand junction.
The daily sentinel., 1901-11-09
The Strike Situation.

Practically no Inconvenience has been
encountered In the yards Of the Union
depot at this city on account Of the
switchmen's strike. An order was re-
ceived from the railroad officials yester-
day that IL the men who had gone out
the day before, did not return to work
by a certain hour. they were to be per-
manently discharged from the service
OF the company.
A large per cent. Of the men refused
to return to work, and in most Of the
yards throughout the system, their
places were filed by others. In this
city only one of the men returned to
work, and the others decided to stay
with the principles OF the switchmen's
union. The places " i'll probably be filled
in day or so, by other workmen.
The officials OF the company declare
that under the contract between tho
railroad company and the trainmen and
conductor's unions, it would be impos-
stole for them to recognize the switch
men's union as an independent organi-
zation, their schedules being governed
by the contract with those organizations.
There has been some difficulty in
some Of the yards, where considerable
switching has been required, and several
of the trains have been delayed. The
trains have been made up by the regu-
lar crews who were called early in order
that they might have time to get made
up and out on time.
The yard masters and joint agent in
this city have worked day and night to
keep the yards from becoming blocked.
1t is not thought that there will bs any
further trouble from the strikers.

Sultan Yields.

Paris, Noy. S.-Frsncs has scored a
complete triumph in tho Turkish dis
pute. The foreign office this morning
received advices announcing that the
sultan has yielded to the entire demands
submitted by the French government
and only tho question Of form regarding
the execution Of the engagements re-
mains to be settled. This may be done
within tho next twenty -four hours, or, it
is expected, at the latest in two or
three days. The Admiral Caillard will
relinquish his occupation OF the Island
OF Mitylens.
An official note was issued at o. 10
today to tho effect that the porte had
decided to yield to all tho demands Of
France, and that as soon ~ tho sultan
has issued the trade ratifying the decis-
ion, the French squadron will leave Mi
tylens.

SIX DOCTORS THIS TIME.

South Bend, Ind, July 29th.-Six diff
ferent doctors treated Mr.. j. o. Lande-
man, of this place, for Kidney Trouble.
He had been very ill for three years,
and he despaired of ever being well.

Pills. Mr.. Landeman used two boxes.
He is completely cured, and besides
losing all his Kidney Trouble, his gen.
eral health is much better than it has
been for years.
No case that has occurred in St. Jo-
seph County for half a century, has
created such profound sensation,
and Dodd's Kidney Pills are being we'll
advertised, as result of this wonder
full cure of Mr.. Landeman's case.
