BIG RAILROADS. MILLIONS.
Northern Pacific Will Spend Ten in
improvements.

st. Paul, April 12.-President C. S.
Mellen today authorized the announce
ment that the Northern Pacific will this
season expend $10,250.OOO on better
ments.
The sum of $5,25O,OOO will be spent
for rolling stock and similar equipment.
1t is the largest equipment order ever
placed by railroad company west of
the Mississippi. The other $4,000, 900
will be spent in permanently improving
the road bed from st. Paul to Portland.
These expenditures are the logical re-
suit of the rapid development of the
northwestern and extreme western coun-
try. The business of all the northwest
ern railroads has developed to such an
extent and the future shows such large
increases still in sight that the Northern
Pacific feels that only by making such
extraordinary additions to its equip
ment can it keep pace with the times.
The business to keep the new equipment
in active service is actually in sight, if
not waiting.

CAN STILL BUY MULES.
New Orleans Judge Says British
Are Not Barred.

Parlange, in the United States superior
court today handed down decision dis
missing the suit brought by the Boer
representatives here to prevent the ship
ments OF mules and horses from New Or
leans to the British army in South
Africa. The decision is a lengthy one
Judge Parlange holds that the trans
actions between citizens of the United
States and the British government were
conducted By the order of private
citizenship and that the courts had alb
sOlutely no jurisdiction to interfere. The
horses and mules, the court said. we're
bought in a neutral territory. Judge
Parlange continues
III the cOmplainants could be heard
to assert here rights personal to them
selves in the treaty involved, and if the
mules and horses involved in this case
are munitions of war, ,lall of which is dis.
puted by the defense, it would become
necessary to determine whether the
United States intended by the declara-
ton OF the treaty of Washington of
May, 1871, to subvert the well estab-
llshed principle of international law that
private citizens of a neutral nation can
lawfully sell supplies to belligerents.
The principle that neutral citizens
may lawfully sell to beligerents has long
been settled in this country by the high
est judicial authorities"

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmOthers
never thought of using anything else for
Indigestion, or Biliousness. Doctors
were scarce, and they seldom heard of
Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or
Heart Failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and
stop fermentation of undigested food,
regulate the action OF the liver, stimu-
late the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head
aches and other aches. You only need
few doses of Green's August Flower, in
liquid form, to make you satisfied there
is nothing serious the matter with you.

SAVED BY SALT,
Woman Pronounced Dead Was Re-
viVed By Solution.

Evansville, Ill.,, April 14.-The bring
ing back to life of Mrs. Sally Allen at a
local hospital by injection into her veins
OF normal salt solution is being widely
commented on by physicians in this sec
ton OF the country. The solution was
nothing more than teaspOonful of com
mon salt dissolved in a pint of water.
Mrs. Allen is improving and the chances
OF recovery are greatly in her favor. Mrs.
Allen has long suffered with abdominal
trouble, and physicians decided on an
operation as last resort to save her
life. She was taken to sanitOrium on
Friday night, and when the operation
was finally completed three physicians
examined the wOman's pulse and pro-
nOunced her dead. Her respiratory
glands failed to perform their functions.
Nitro glycerine, strychnine and other
stimulants used to revive the hearts ac-
tiOn were brought into use, but failed.
AS a last resort DR.. Richstein opened
vein in the woman's arm and injected
pint OF normal salt solution. He was
rewarded in few minutes afterWard by
seeing the patient open her eyes. In q
few seconds more she raised her head
and asked for something to eat.
v bile the power of salt to bring back
dead to life has been commented on by
the medical journals of the country, few
practitioners have had the hardihood
to risk chances of failure in giving it a
trial. DR.. Richstein is probably the first
physician in the west to make the test

all police and police officers. will have
a mayor and three city councilmen, they
to act as city clerk, city treasurer and
