The Burlington e Western and
Burlington { Northern to Be
Widened.
Officials Plan to Begin and
Complete Work in One
Day.
Five Hundred Men Will Be EN-.
ployed-New Feat in Road
Building.
Special to Times-Republican.

| Burlington. June 14.-When, on June
20, the Burlington & Western and Bur-
| lington & Northwestern will be
changed from a narrow gauge to a
standard gauge road, but few trains
will be delayed, as it is planned to have
the work completed in ten hours. In
the morning a narrow gauge train Will
go ever the road and in the evening the
first standard gauge train will speed
over the rails.
Time was when the putting down Of
over hundred miles of railroad track
would require days instead of hours,
and when road was widened there
would be no traffic for some time. But
now all this has changed. Railroads
are too busy to lay off their trains for
an considerable length of time. The
Burlington & Western and Burlington
81 Northwestern have been preparing
for this change for some time, and ev-
erything is now in readiness for 1t. The
little rails of few years ago have dis
appeared and 66-pound rails have ta-
ken their place. The ties are all STAN
dard gauge and comparatively new, sc
that all that is required is to pull the
spikes, move out the rails and spike
them down again. 1t will be necessary
to move both rails for if but one We're
moved the track would not be true and
one side would soon sag.
Between Burlington and Mediapolis
the tracks of the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids e. Northern railroad are used
so that the work of widening the gauge
will be from Mediapolis north. Then
the third rail on the b., c. r. & N.
road may be taken up at leisure.
June 20 has been selected as the time
for doing the work because it falls on
Sunday. The morning passenger train
is not run out on that day and few af
the important trains on the road viii
be delayed by the change.
Early in the morning a narrow gauge
train will start from each end of the
road and fourteen workmen will be
dropped off every four miles. This will
require from; 400 to $50 men and they
will be obliged to work rapidly.
Not only the main line, but all the
side tracks as we'll will be relaid, max
ing about 125 miles Of track altogether.
In the evening a standard gauge
train will start from each end of the
road and the workmen will be gathered
up.
An official of the road said yester-
day: Work of this kind has been done
before and do not think that we shall
have any trouble in accomplishing our
purpose. That is, of course, If the
weather is favorable. Even if it should
be raining, l think we can do 1t, tho
then it would be much more difficult"
1t would require a good many miles
of sidetrack to store the old narrow
gauge cars, so that will not be done.
The officials of the road say that they
will dispose of the cars and will not
keep them here after the road is broad
ened. Burlington route cars and en-
gines will be used over the line and it
will be thoroughly up to date in every

SUNDAY FUNERALS EXPENSIVE,
Sioux City Liverymen to Raise Price
for Funeral Carriages.

Sioux City, June 14.-Provident peo-
pie. with disposition to leave something
in their estates worth while for the
lawyers to quarrel about, will hereafter
die early in the week. so it will not
be necessary for their funerals to be
held on Sunday. It's going to cost more
hereafter than on other days.
The liverymen of the town have
about determined to advance from SO
to "a the price for carriages for funerals
on Sunday. They are also about ready
to form an association to assure uni
formity of regulations for the business
Sunday is the big day for livery
men," said one of them. 1--WE can get
So for every horse that day. We send
two with funeral carriages, thus losing
money. The advance to 81 has been
considered, and, you can say, will
doubtless be adopted. AS to an assoc
citation, other towns have them and we
could benefit much by one, and will
probably organize"

On Skates In Holland.

The average Dutchman of the south
Of Holland, though he can skate very
well, looks rather foolish on the ice.
His short legs and wide breeches are
admirable adjuncts to his nose, his
thin cooked beard and the lumpishness
Of his expression. To be sure, this
breadth makes him look important, but
if he were less muscular it would be
a sad hindrance to him in battling with
the wind, which in winter in apt to
make skating in one direction some
thing Of q trial.
The Frieslander, however, is taller,
better proportioned and in all respects
a handsome fellow. The yellow beard
he sometimes wears seems to put him
at once on footing of affinity with
the other members of that respectable
Angio-Saxon family to which we our
selves belong, quite as much as his
provincial speech and his blue eyes.
He is a most masterful creature when
once he has put on those quaint old
fashioned skates Of his, and thinks
nothing of making score of miles
from one village to another before you
and I are out of bed. AS for the cold,
what cares he for it? He knows he
must rely on that lusty circulation Of
his to keep him from being benumbed,
though he clothe ever so lightly, and
seems more regardful Of his head
which a sealskin cap takes care Of
than of his we'll shaped body.-Cham-

An amusing story is told of the edi-
tor of a go-ahead London evening
newspaper, who, in the eternal rushing
to press to get ahead of the opposition,
was constantly impressing upon his
reporters the necessity for condensing
all news.
A terrific boiler explosion had taken
place on board a big ship lying at
Portsmouth.
"Get down there as hard as you
can," he said to one of his men. ''If
you catch the 11:40 from London
bridge, you'll be there soon after 2
and can just wire us something for the
fifth edition, but boil it down."
And the reporter went.
Soon after 3 o'clock that afternoon
they got wire from him:
"Terrific explosion. Man-o'war.
Boiler empty. Engineer full. Funeral
tomorrow. No flowers. s."-London Tit

A Primitive Poste flee.

Until short time ago very peculiar
postoffice was used in Argyllshire,
England. 1t was situated in the lonely
hills between Drimmin and Barr. three
miles from any habitation, and con-
sisted of simple slit in rock, closed
up by nicely fitting stone.
When any letters arrived at Drim-
min for the district of Barr. they were
conveyed to the rock by the first shep.
herd or crofter going so far. Having
been dropped in and the slit reclosed,
they were left until a shepherd or
crofter from the other side happened
to come along, when they were taken
up and delivered at their destination
No letter was ever known to be lost at
this primitive postoffice.
