Santa Fe Raises Pay Of Coast
Line Machinists.
Will Receive an Increase Of 70
Cents q Day.
A VOLUNTARY ACTION.
Said to Be Intended to Dis
courage Boilermakers' Strike.
Topeka Machinists Hoping For
a Similar Increase.

San Bernardino, Cal, Sept. 6.-Diyis-
ion Master Mechanic Park of the santa
Fe shops here has officially announced
that hereafter the machinists on this
division will receive $3.50 instead OF
1925 a day. as heretofore.
The above announcement of a raise
in pay for the machinists at the Santa
FEES big coast line shops is of more
than ordinary interest. in view OF the
recent labor troubles on that part or
the system.
Apparently, the rise in pay is entire
ly voluntary on the part of the SANTA
Fe The machinists at San Demanding
have never. asked for more pay, and
raise is entirely unexpected.
Railroad men in Topeka generally
consider that the move was very
foxy" one on the part of the road to
discourage the threats of a renewal OF
the strike which are being made by the
boilermakers at San Bernardino. They
believe that the officials intend the
boilermakers to read lesson from the
voluntary increase given to the ma
chinists, and try to merit similar treat
ment by keeping down strike agitation.
The raise of 25 cents a day will pro-
badly affect about so workmen on the
division, but it is of important as fore
casting a possible raise in pay for the
machinists over the entire Santa Fe
system. Here at Topeka the machin-
lists get about $40 per day. but 1t is
claimed that owing to the great cost OF
living at San Bernardino and the un-
pleasant conditions which prevail there,
most machinists prefer to work in To-
peka for the smaller wages Topeka
machinists are hoping, however. that
the good work may go on.

Sick and nervous headaches are

Irregular intervals, goes through life

ness that is terrible to think of.
Headaches, as a rule. result from a
disordered condition of the nervous sys-

bodily fatigue, and disordered digestion
are exciting causes. When the brain be-
comes tired and debilitated. the whole
nervous system is weakened. and head
aches resule. If the liver is sluggish, the
kidneys inactive, and digestion de-
ranged, headaches invariably follow.
To cure and prevent headache, the ner-

SANTA FE NOT ALONE.
Other Roads Are After the Line Into
ST. Louis.

In discussing the report that the
Santa Fe is after st. Louis connection,
the st. Louis Republic says:
Through the new railroad being con-
structed north and south through Mis-
souri, and Iowa by Gates and his part
ner capitalists, Mitchell and Lambert,
not only has ST. Louis line which may
be of service in bringing the Santa Fe
into St. Louis, but also the Northwest
ern, the milwaukee,. the Iowa Central
and a Rock Island connection from the
north.
Tentative negotiations are already I'M
der way between the builders of the
Iowa and ST. Louis. the Gates road, and
not only the Santa Fe, but also the Rock
Island, the Milwaukee and the North
western. The Iowa Central has talkeI
with officials of the new road.
The Iowa and ST. Louis is the middle
section of the line, the st. Louis end OF
it being known under the corporate
name of the Iowa and Missouri, while
the Iowa section is known as the Iowa
and Dakota. the last section being char
tered to Sioux City. At present Des
Moines is the objective point in the
north and st. Louis in the south.
Originally the Iowa and ST. Louis was
projected to carry coal from the Gates
fields in Missouri and Iowa, which I'M
derlies about 100000 acres. AT present
it would seem more probable that the
Santa Fe is the farthest ahead in nego-
tiations. But no contract has been
drawn. The possibility, however, is
strong that the Santa Fe may make
an arrangement with Gates to run
trains into ST. Louis over connecting
cutoff to the Iowa and ST. Louis.
South of the Missouri the state of Hi
nois is amply able to supply coal, but
north of the river a new coal supply is
needed. Perhaps it is the Santa Fee that
needs the big coal supply on the Iowa
and ST. Louis more than any other OF
the big lines heading toward ST. Louis.
This new line will carry coal north and
move the grain of the northern railroads
south. 1t is well known that the rail-
roads of the country are fighting, in one
way or another, the isthmian canal, but
the probability that it will go through
has been accepted by the lines of the
north and they will soon begin to move
grain south.
That is where Gates hopes to make his
line necessary to the northern roads or
the Santa F'e. The Iowa and ST. Louis
will build bridge across the Missouri
river if necessary, and it's promoters an
nounce that they are determined to Sc
cure an entrance to the city and have
all terminals completed in time for the
entrance of the first train upon compile
ton some time next spring. Not long
after that opening one of the roads of
the north-Milwaukee, Northwestern,
Iowa Central or Rock IsIand--or the
Santa Fe. will enter st. Louis. That will
be in time for the worlds fair.

ago. The wasp would watch its chance
to sting the snake and then ny to
cactus. The snake would crawl to the
plant but would not strike while the
wasp remained there. The wasp made
several false attempts to fly and finally
induced the snake to strike. The reptile
in striking became attached to the cac-

then flew away and In few moments
returned bringing with him several of
