hour and thirty minutes; and we I'M
derstand that the company intends to
put in service some of their most
powerful passenger locomotives be-
tween GAINESVILLE and Chicago, and
expect thereby to still shorten the run
ming time over the time on the old line
via Rockford and Davis Junction.
The freight service over the Min
eral Point division is also declared
by shippers to be vastly improved.
A freight train leaving Mineral Point
at 4:3O p. m. arrives in Chicago at
O'Clock the next morning. Freight
leaving Chicago at p. m. arrives in
Mineral Point at 1880 the following
morning.
We believe that if proper efforts
were made on the part of this commu-
nifty, mail might be secured from Chi
cago on our 1870 a. N. merchandise
train, which would be an accommoda-
ton to all, especially to business men.
The c., M. and ST. P. R'y company
own and operate $500 miles of thor
oughly equipped road, and it is graf
flying to know that they are giving
special attention to southern Wiscon-
sin points, and affording travelling
and shipping accommodations that
are frst-class. The improved service
meets with many favorable comments.

The newspaper correspondents are
saying that President Roosevelt will
make no fight for tariff reform.
While his bravery is unquestioned,
he is probably not SO rash as to at
tack the tariff barons, knowing, as he
must know, that all the forces which
he could hope to muster within his
party would be composed of men who
feel constrained to say the high tariff
creed before declaring themselves for
reciprocity or a reduction of trust
protecting duties. The message itself
will, perhaps, disclose whether the
President himself is believer in the
policy of so called protection.

TWO NEW CHAIR AND BUFFET COACHES PUT SERVICE
BETWEEN EVANSVILLE AND CHICAGO
Running Time Mineral
Fifteen Minutes.
Time Saved Line
Thirty Minutes.

The excellent train service given by
the G.. M. & St. ?. Railway should be
a matter of local pride to every resi-
dent of Mineral Point and vicinity;
and The Democrat is glad to note
the fact that the New Short Line be-
tween Mineral Point and Chicago
meets with general commentator.
Just think of it: You can leave Miner
al Point at 7:45 a. M, reach Chi
cago at 100 p. M: remain there for
three hours or until 400 p. N. and
then return to Mineral Point at 9:20
the same evening. And this is not
all. Ever since the running of the
first train over the new line, last
summer, improvements in the service
have been going on. Recently two new
Is #. parlor and buffet coaches have
been put in service between Chicago,
GAINESVILLE and Madison These are
declared to be the finest cars of their
kind at present running on any road.
Meals are served, the cars being fit
ted with ranges and all conveniences.
The 7:45 train out of Mineral Point,
and the 9:20 train in, arrive at and
depart from Chicago on same train
as these parlor and buffet cars.

Point and Chicago, on the New Short
Line over the former time, is one

THE HOPKINS LECTURE.

The Rev. Frederick G.. Hopkins,
of Chicago, lectured on 1.-The Golden
Fleece" before a crowded house at the
city hall on Monday of this week. He
proved himself to be one of the most
popular ones in the course as given
by the Woman's Reading Club from
year to year. The voyage of the ar
gonauts for the recovery of 1.-THE
Golden Fleece" suggested an outline
of lecture which abounded, not only
in stories, but in quotations, which
shows not only extensive reading, but
Il verbal memory that few possess.
He said, that through sincerity of mo-
tive and purpose, through an abiding
faith IN God, in seeing things as they
are, and in meeting the opportunities
of life, could be found 1.-The Golden
Fleece of life; and in its recovery
there may be a compensation for all
the trials and dangers of the voyage.
He argued that the law of heredity
had nothing do with it but that THE
Golden Fleece" was in the man him
self; that it was not the system but the
lack of system in many lives which
proved their bane. Anarchy, politi-
cal and social; discomfort, disorder
and choas came because men and
women were seeking Tor 1.-The Golden
Fleece" outside of their own charac-
ter. The trouble was in the disorder
of their own brain. Put that in order
then they would see things clearly and
as they really are.

Vigorous Measures.

Tor long time the favorite form Of
'make believe" Of little Faith was that
of getting married" For weeks she
was bride, marching down an imagi-
nary aisle to the strains of an imagi-
nary wedding march to meet an imagi-
nary bridegroom. At last, her mother
becoming tired Of it, she said:
Faith, don't you know that when
you get married you will have to leave
me"'
This was a rude awakening, and the
game stopped.
Not long afterward she came to ask
the difference between Miss" and
Mrs" To make herself clear her
mother said:
well, when you grow up and be-
come young lady you will be Miss
Butler, but If some man should ask
you to marry him
I'D call a policeman exclaimed
Faith, and her interest was at an end.

The "New Woman"

Since the advent of the so-called
''new woman" no one has been more
constant in opposing her masculine
tendencies than Cardinal Gibbons.
AS man of wide experience, with
opportunities for studying human
nature as varied and numerous as
they are unusual, he has been able to
investigate this phase of modern life
under the most favorable circumstan-
ces. His views of the question from
thoroughly secular standpoint, viii be

Editor Thomas w. Bishop, who
has Travelled much and knows where
of he speaks, says in his paper, The
Salem S. Oak. Tribune:
It appears an effort is being made
with some of the business men of
Salem to interest them in the pur-
chase of Florida land. Our advice to
them is that they must be very, very
careful. Natural productive soil in
that state is found in a very limited
portion of it, and to make it good for
anything it must be fertilized fl ON
the first. The idea that it will at
least make good pasture is also a
mistake. In some places there is, to
look upon, the most beautiful grass,
but investigation proves that there is
no more nutriment in it than is con-
tanned in so much pine shavings. 1t
is a good place to spend the winter,
and there is lots of good healthful
air down there at this time of the
year; but the principal source of
wealth is northern suckers"

Here is striking example of the
way McClure's Magazine keeps up to
the times. When Roosevelt was gov

So Plat contrived to be rid of him by
making him Vice-President. Now
Roosevelt is President, and Plat, to

QUALITIES THAT WIN.

Superintendent J. H. Nattrass,
through his educational column print
ed in the Lafayette county papers,
submits for the careful considera-
alton of the girls and boys of our
public schools, the following extract
from an address of Ex-President
Cleveland to Princeton students:
First in my thoughts are the les
sons to be learned from the career of
William Mckinley, by young men.
These lessons are not obscure or
difficult. They teach the value of
study and mental training, but they
teach more impressively that the road
to usefulness and to the only success
worth having will be missed or lost
except it is sought and kept by those
qualities of heart, which it is suppos-
ed may be safely neglected. Study
and study hard, but never let the
thought enter your mind that the
greatest possible accumulation of
learning alone will lead you to the
heights of usefulness and success.
The man who is universally mourned
today, achieved the highest distinction
which this great country can confer
on any man, and he lived useful
life. He was not deficient in educa-
ton, but with all you hear of his
grand career, you will not hear that
what he accomplished was due en-
tirely to his education. You will
instead constantly hear that he was
obcdient and affectionate as a son,
patriotic and faithful as soldier,
honest and upright as citizen. tender
and devoted as husband, and truth
full, generous, unselfish, moral and
clean in every relation of life. He
never thought any of these things too
weak for his manliness. Make no

What 1t Would Make

1t has been truly remarked that the
logic of children Is excellent, but that
they lack experience. The following
authentic anecdote, however. comes
somewhat under the head of excep-
tons to that rule. A lady was giving d
lesson in concrete arithmetic" to her
little boy.
Now, supposing give you a choco-
late" she said, land then another, how
many would that maker

"And then supposing gave you four
more, what would that maker
