WILL CARRY NO PASSENGERS
Fast Trains Between st. Paul and
Chicago Will Only Carry Mail.

The ten-hour trains that have been in
service between Chicago & st. Paul dur
ing the past six weeks will be changed
so that they will become exclusively fast
mail trains. When the time war was
started these fast mail trains We're made
passenger trains by adding sleepers. BY
the compact officers of the North Western
and Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul have
agreed to detach all larior cars and
sleepers from these flyers.
Time of trains between Chicago and
Kansas City will not be changed. Roads
between these two points have been adj
herring to a sort f chnmna schedule.
and this will not be touched. Between
Chicago and Denver the time now pre-
vaiiing will continue, except so far as
affected by the changed schedule of the
overland limited of the NORTHWESTERN.
A rumor that this agreement would be
violated by some OF the roads could not
be affirmed at the local offices yesterday.

ERA OF AssALoM.

Great Demand Now for Young Men Of
Training and Natural Ability.
The present Is essentially-in Amer
lea, at least 1.-The day Of the young man.
He Is in demand. If he be mentally
well equipped. and have character and
common sense to back his knowledge,
he will find that there are opportuni-
ties open to him, often, on the very
threshold Of his business career. such 10
the young man of an earlier day would
dream Of as the goal only Of long years
Of waiting and working. says an ex-
change.
During q recent visit to that hive Of
industry which swarms around Pitts
burg, and in the valleys Of the Monon-
gahela and Allegheny, we were i'm
pressed with the fact that In most of
the great manufacturing establish
ments the highest positions Of RESPONSE
bility were filed by men who were yet
several years on this side Of the prime
Of life. That such young heads should
so often be directing vast Industrial
concerns Is due In part to the amazing
rnpidity with which new industries
have sprung up during the past decade.
and In part to the fact that the keen
competition Of the age calls for the
adaptiveness and energy which are tho
natural qualities Of youth.
Time was when there was an over
plus, especially In the technical trades
and professions. Of the supply Of quail
fed young men; but to-day conditions
are entirely reversed.
Clear proof of this was shown at the
recent annual commencement exer-
cises Of the Stevens Institute of Tech
nology, Hoboken, when out Of 40 grad
yates only dozen were present to re-
ceive their diplomas. This unprece-
denied condition Of things was explain.
ed by President Morton on the ground
thnt the demand for graduates to all
business positions this year had been
the most urgent In the history Of the in
stitute, and that most of the absentees
had been induced to leave the institute
q week or more Before commencement,
In order that they might begin their
professional duties at once.
President Morgan further stated that
the whole OF the 40 graduates could
have secured positions at once II they
had 20 desired. There IL no gainsaying
the significance Of such facts as these:
and as like conditions will produce like
results, It Is probable that before many
years have elapsed these young gradu-
ates win have risen to positions which
are both responsible and remunerative.

FAMOUS "ANcHoR" FENCE.


The famous "Anchor" fence tina. "A
being so generally introduced now in
the northwest has the universal dis
tinction of being even better than ito
friends claimed. The Portland
Anchor Fence Company has agents
all over the country now introducing
this really wonderful fence. Its sim.
plicity, extreme durability, and cheap
ness make everybody marvel.
To satisfy the general interest, an
officer of the company was asked to
describe the chief points OF construc.
ton. He said:
"In the first place, it is made Of all
large wires, the upright stays being
OF No. 8, and the running Of No. .
wire, which singly stand a breaking
strain of 1, 500 pounds. In the second
place there is not a small, weak or
twisted wire used in our fence con-
struction.
"The uprights are so securely last
ened that man or beast cannot break
the fence down.
1.-THE end, corner and gate posts
must be large, and securely braced,
and SO placed that the center OF tho
posts will be on . line with the face
Of the line posts. After the posts are
