HIT A SOLDIER.
The Experience of One of
Our Men.

The soldier boys who fought during
the Rebellion Went home as n rule In
pretty bad shape, caused by exposure
and improper food and the use of
quantities OF coffee which left It's
mark in the wreck of many stom-
ach. Merrill Hutchinson, OF Reading,
Mass, tells his experience:
II am an old soldier who served all

my coffee drinking commenced when

worst kind and could not drink any
thing but warm water or warm milk nor
eat enough to hardly keep man alive.
After suffering this way for years,
and half living, was told by n
friend OF your Postum Coffee.

Back of Move Holding Up
B., A. & {. Franchise.
Belt Line Companies Have Barrels of
Money on Both Sides.

The belt line situation in Akron
shows an interesting fight between
the vanderbilts and the Pennsylvania
and other trunk line companies hav-
ing tracks laid through this city.
On the ene hand is the Barberton,
Akron 6 Eastern. owned by the four
trunk lines touching Akron, and on the
other the Akron, Belt Line Railway
CO., backed by the vanderbilts.
The b., A. & Il. was promoted by
G. d. Crouch, and later the scheme
was taken up by Mr.. o. G. Barber and
other capitalists of Akron and Bar
berton. Their plan was to connect
with the Wheeling & Lake Erie at
Mogadore, and also to run belt lines
around manufacturing plants of Ak
ron and Barberton. Finally it was
consolidated with the Barberton Belt
line, and the whole outfit was sold
TO the trunk lines for $1,000,O00. OF
this amount, 100000 was paid down,
100000 to be kept back until the Bar
berton, Akron & Eastern delivered to
the purchasers complete right of way
! for the line and franchise to cross
streets and operate in and through
Akron. An application for such
franchise was made to the City Coun-
Gil of Akron-about eight months ago
but Council refuses to grant it. These
are the grounds upon which the refu-
sal is made:
That one G. NJ. French, of Mansfield
and certain other promoters came to
Akron about two years ago and began
surveying for belt lines to cover prac-
tically the same territory as that map
ped out a year later by the Barber
ton. Akron & Eastern. These belt
lines, it was explained by the French
people, were to be tributaries of a
short line between Chicago and Pitts
burg. Surveys were also made for
belt lines around Youngstown and
Mansfield. The Chicago Short Line
Railway Co. was the name given the
system.
For long time, 1t was uphill work
for the French people, and time and
time again, 1t was predicted that the
scheme would fail. But they went
right ahead, despite the fact that ev-
cry now and then suits would be start.

While the French people were "ir

and burning or tearing down their re-
treat. Revolvers were carefully load
ed and examined, handouts were stor-
ed away in various pockets, and some
of the Policemen were in favor of taxi
ing riot guns along, for these might
be desperate characters, and it was
also possible that they were the burg
lars who had operated so extensive
ly in this city for several months.
At9a.m. the cavalade started. They
proceeded to the neighborhood of the
gullies and then plunged into the
thlckets and underbrush, each mans
heart beating high with the hope that
he might this day distinguish himself.
Result: They tramped up hill and
down, covered miles of ground, lost
each other completely in short time,
became hot and very tired, and did
not find single trace Of the hoboes
they had come to find. Finally, long
after the whistles had sounded faint
ly and appetizingly across the hills
and valleys telling them that the folks
at home were sitting down to dinner,
they gave up the search and came
back to town, vowing dire revenge on
the persons who had sent them on their
fruitless chase. They arrived about
1 pm.
