CHILD CARRIED OFF.
Servant Girl Disappears With
Two Year Old Boy

New York, March Much excitement
prevails at Montreal, says a dispatch from
that city to the Herald. over mysterious
kidnapping. Edgar Wayland, the 2-year-
old son of E. j. Wayland, manager of
large boot and shoe firm, is believed to
have been carried off by a servant girl,
who called herself Audley Erie, but whose
real name is believed to be Ethel Young.
Mrs. Wayland left the child and an elder
boy in the nurses care about o'clock
Friday afternoon and when she returned
at she learned that the girl had packed
a Valise with ValuableS belonging to the
house. Carrying this and leading the child,
she had told the other servants she was
going to deliver the valise to a girl to
whom it belonged. That was the last seen
of her or of Edgar. The case was put into
the hands of the detectives, but no trace
of the pair has been found
One theory is that the abductor had been
urged to the deed by men who hope to OBJ
tain a reward for the child'S recovery. An
other is that the girl has been inspired by
the reading of novels.
She is only Is years of age and has $1,000
which is in trust for her in Toronto.

ACTIVITY RESUMED
In All Business Which Had Been
Affected by the Weather.

New York. March I-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Although the shortest month of the
year was further curtailed by two hoh-
days and handicapped by the most Sc
we're storms of the winter. Industrial
and trade results were most satisfac-
tory. The closing week brought gen
eral resumption of activity in lines that

ration for an exceptionally heavy spring

southern cities alone being backward.
insufficient motive power and bad
weather combined to restrict the
movement of coke from ConnellSville,
and pig iron production suffers at
time when maximum output would not
be excessive.
This difficulty extends all along the
line. Pressure for structural material
is already severe, and will probably be
stin more so as the regular building

takers of cotton goods are very
cautious about undertaking future de-
liveries owing to the uncertainty as to
labor and raw material. Export orders
are still available, but at prices slightly
below the views of holders. As a rule
wooden goods are we'll maintained and
in brisk demand, but new lines of heavy
weights are not sought.
Cereals opened the week with a de-
cided reaction. AS usual, speculative
liquidation carried the decline too far,
and there followed the customary re-
action Wheat came into sight rather
more freely than a year ago. and the
Atlantic shipment of -four made a bet
ter comparison than in recent preceding
weeks, but total exports of wheat from
the United States, -four included, were
but 3.1S5,052 bushels, against 4,324, 29+
bushels a year ago.
Corn showed the customary loss in
both movements, receipts amounting TO
only 2,312. 664 bushels, against 4,S40, 1888
bushels last year, while Atlantic ship
ments We're 1874 $50 bushels, compared
with S.421, $50 bushels in the same week
of 1901.
Cotton ruled fairly steady at the re-
cent advance, which attracted more
liberal marketing at the south, but sup
plies in first hands are reported very
low. Wool has been taken less freely
by mills, but dealers show no lack of
confidence in the future of that staple.
Failures for the week numbered s215
in the United States, against 10 last
year and So in Canada, against 81 last
year.
Current demand is of full volume for
this season of the year, while business
on spring account goes forward in large
volume; this, too, in the face of unfa-
Vorable weather conditions in large sec
lions of the country.
Iron and steel are quieter on the sur
face, but consumption remains undimin-
ished. Short supplies of coke are still
complained of in the west, and fur
naces are being banked for this reason,
but the output of pig iron has been
larger this week than for some time
past Structural mills are filed with
orders, most of them being five months
products. orders for which extended to
well up to the close of the year. Among
the metals, copper has displayed some
strength this week. Prices show very
little important change during the week.
The heavy break in wheat prices at the
close of last week. contrary to expecta-
tiOnS, did not bring to light the re-
ported large waiting business on ex-
port account Toward the close short
covering was forced, despite the heavy
primary movement, on reports that the
growing winter wheat crop was suffer-
ing, having lost it's covering of snow.
Corn, among the cereals, noted the chief
advance of the week. Hog products
have been irregular in sympathy with
grain.

A CAUSE OF HEADACHE.
One Very Common Causc, Cen
orally Overlooked.

Headache is a symptom. an indication
OF arrangement or disease in some organ,
and the cause of the headache is difficult
TO locate because so many diseases have
headache a prominent symptom: de-
rangement of the stomach and liver. heart
trouble, kidney disease, lung trouble. eye
strain or ill fitting glasses, all produce
headaches, and if we could always locate
the organ which is at fault the cure of
obstinate headaches would be a much
simpler matter
However, for that form of headache call
ed frontal heada che. pain back of the eyes
and in forehead, the cause is now known
to be catarrh of the head ard throat:
when the headache is located in back of
head and neck it is often caused from ca
tarrh of the stomach or liver.
At any rate catarrh is the most COM
mon cause of such headaches and the cure
of the catarrh causes a prompt disappear
ance of the headaches.
There is at present no treatment for ca
tarrh so convenient and effective as Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets, new internal rem
edy in tablet form, composed of antisep-
tics like eucalyptol. guaiacol and blood
root which act upon the blood and cause
the elimination of the catarrhal poison

channels.

AN EXCITING RIDE.
Princes Train Makes Speed of
so Miles an Hour.

Pittsburg. March 1.-Once the special
train was clear of the wreck, the speed
of the engine was quickly increased. 1t
was down grade for nearly all the way
{ into Pittsburg and whenever there are
stretches of good running Engineer Gill
christ lets his big engine out. The high
est speed attained was about sixty
miles an hour and the ride which the
prince got down through the foothills in
the huge swaying engine, was an ex-
citing one.
At speed of forty miles an hour the
train cleared Johnstown, and the crowd
that waited at the depot in two long
lines on either side of the track got but
a short view of it.
At Bradensville the train was stopped
and the prince, with cinder- marked
face and begrimed hands, returned to
his car to dress for the reception at
Pittsburg.
As he returned to the car he laughed
al the sport of his ride through the
mountains, and said that he had had a
splendid time. He donned his uniform
as admiral, and the members of his
suite and the military and naval mem
bers OF the American escort also put
on their uniforms. No other stops were
made on the way to Pittsburg.
AT P1ttsburg the prince was greeted by

parted 10 minutes later.

TRANSCONTINENTAL ROAD.
To Be Called the Eureka & Eastern
and Has Powerful Backing.

Chicago, March What amounted to
a new transcontinental railway is to be
constructed at once. The Pacific termi-
nal is Eureka. Cal, and 500 miles of
steel will lead thence eastward into
Idaho to connect with the Northern Pa
oific and Great Northern and into Ne
vada to connect with the Union Pa
cific.
This announcement, the Record-Her-
aid says, was made at the Auditorium
hotel yesterday by Lord Thurlow OF
England and George H. Proctor of New
York, who left last night for the west
to choose the final route of the railway
over the mountains. The construction
contract has been let to Drake and
Stratton, and the work will begin this
summer; 100000 will be expended.
Mr. Proctor has been in conference all
winter in New York with j. J. Hill and
Z. H. Hartman.
Eureka, the terminal possesses the
one harbor between San Francisco and
miles. With a population of 10000, and
no railway, its exports and imports
amount to $6,000,0 900 annually. The
Eureka & Eastern. the new roads title,
will have no snow sheds, its highest
rass being 5000 feet, against the Union
Pacific's 5000. 1t will pierce the Red
wood country and the Shasta mining
region. At Reading, $50 miles inland,
it crosses the Southern Pacific; at
Weiser, Idaho the Oregon Short Line
From Fall River mills branch runs
southeast to Wadsworth, New. to tap
the Union Pacific. James j. Hill is
building down to Weiser from the Nor
thern Pacific.
The directors are G. H Proctor,
Henry B. Twombley. Robert Gibson and
William r. c. Wilson. The real parties
in interest besides Lord Thurlow and
Mr.. Proctor are presumably the Rookie
fellers and ]. ]. Hill, besides English
capitalists Lord Thurlow has been west
two years engaged in the scheme.

THEIR STORIES COUNT.
Troutmen Men Make Inroads in Sill
yer Lake and RossvilIe-

The politicians were excited this
morning over the report that Rossville
and Silver Lake had suddenly swung
around in the political turmoil. The
report was brought to town that the
workers there had suddenly changed
from supporting WEIGH and had gone
over to Troutman. The WEIGH forces
deny that there is any change and still
maintain that Rossville will send an
uninstructed delegation to the county
convention. and that they will carry
Silver Lake.
The Troutman Uorkers have been
busy in Rossville and Silver Lake. Will
Van Orsdale, committeeman from Sill
Yer Lake, came to town this morning.
Some time ago he was counted among
the WEIGH forces, but he said Silver
Lake and Rossville would be for Trout
man. The Troutman workers have
thoroughly canvassed Silver Lake, and
some of the means used to convert the
stories that Leland is behind WEIGH
and that Curtis wants Troutman to
get the delegation. Another story used
was that all the associate justices will
be renominated, and that the only place
to be open is Frank Doster's. and that
Henry Mason, of Garden City, is GER

the Shawnee delegation The man who
had much to do with this work is doc

Observer Jennings got out his book of
proverbs, compiled by the government

the following interesting legends. Dust
in March brings grass and foliage"
That applies to Kansas avenue so far
as the dust is concerned but the grass
will have to appear elsewhere. IF it
does not freeze on the 10th a fertile
year may be expected" He will wait
until that date to see If it SHOWS and
then wait the rest of the year to see if
the proverb is correct. Snow in Marcn
is bad for fruit and grapevine" That is
conceded by some. "A bushel of March
dust is worth a kings ransom" If that
is the case most everyone can be
wealthy. There are other proverbs for
those who are not satisfied with the
above.

MORSE GOES TO LA JUNTA.
No Successor as Assistant to Mr.
Storey Will Be Named.

c. A. Morse. the newly appointed
principal assistant engineer of the west
ern grand division of the Santa Fe, left
this afternoon for La Juntae to assume
his new position. Mr.. Morse has had
rapid promotions since beginning work
for the Santa Fe in 1886. In that year
he was engaged in construction work
for the Santa Fe in Kansas. In 1889
he was made division engineer on the
Chicago division. After a years SER
vice he was sent to Colorado as
resident engineer, and served there two
and a half years. He was then sent
back to the Chicago division as assist
ant engineer, and later as resident engi-
neer, where he served seven years. He
was again sent to Colorado as resident
engineer, and served there year and
half, when he returned to Topeka as
assistant to Chief Engineer w. B.
Storey His position as principal as
sistant engineer is a newly created
position, and gives him complete juris-
diction over the western grand division,
which extends from Newton to Albu-
querque.
No successor to Mr. Morse as assist
ant to Chief Engineer Storey has been
appointed. 1t is said that this position
will be left vacant for the time being,
at least
