CHANGE THE SITE.
Wilder Gives His Opinion
About K C. Depot.

The KansasCity Journal quotes Edward
Wilder, treasurer of the Santa Fe, as Civ
ing the following opinion about the pro-
posed Kansas City depot:
Z believe that there viii be a new de
pot. but just when and where are still
rather problematical. They seem to be
getting into quite snarl about it. The
Santa Fe wants a new depot, but am
not able to say what they would prefer
in the way of a site. 1t seems to me per-
sonally that this site would certainly have
to be abandoned. The space here is alto
gether too limited. The tracks are getting
all snarled up now. They ought to have
a place where the passenger and freight
tracks would not have to cross each other
. You see, there are a number of freight
trains going along here right now. 1t
seems to me that out on the Belt some
where would be the natural place. Then
they could have the passenger business
all clear of the freight tracks and could
bring all the freight business in this way.
Now, understand, this is not official, but
that is the way the matter appears to
me-

PARKER DENIES IT.
Says Rock Island Has Not Changed
Its Route.

Warrensburg, Mo-, Oct. 31.-The dis
patch sent out from New York quoting
a director of the Rock Island as saying
that the Warrensburg route of the st.
Louis, Kansas City & Colorado road has
been abandoned is contradicted by a
telegram sent by Vice President Parker
of the Rock Island to Chief Engineer
Campbell, who is in charge of the new
survey.
Mr.. Parker stated that no decision re-
garding the route has yet been reached,
and that none will be made until the
new survey IS completed. This survey
is from Windsor, Mo, south of Chill
howee and Holden, and west of Lees
Summit. thence north to Kansas City.
Mr.. Parker in his telegram stated that
the choice would be made between this
new route and the Warrensburg route.
1t is the opinion of the engineers in
charge that the Warrensburg route Will
be taken. unless the new survey de-
velops a much cheaper routes

. TITLED DOMESTICS.
Persons With Loyal Blood Are Not
Ali Idlers.

The romantic story Of Princess Helene
Zulukidse, who is working as brick
layers assistant in Odessa, is by no
means an uncommon one. A CORE
spOndent who has studied the curious
phases of life in eastern and central
Europe reveals some astonishing facts.
1.-The fact that q princess should be
compelled to seek such a livelihood"
she writes, lis by no means so startling
an occurrence as might be supposed. In
many parts Of the continent the fathers
title is inherited by all his children, and
there are several villages in Austria,
Poland and Russia in " hicn all the
peasants are legitimately descended
from some princely ancestor They are
legally described as princes in all Of
fetal documents. and on leaving their
homes many of these peasant princes
find themselves sadly hampered by the
burden of high sounding title.
They cannot get rid of the titles,
however, as they are purely personal
ones. and not marketable commodities.
like so many in Italy and Portugal and
can be engaged without showing his
/ papers, in which his rank, age and oc-
cupatiOn are stated. Needless to say,
few people are willing to engage a work
man of legally far higher rank than
themselves, and an instance of this
hardship came to my personal knowl-
edge recently. The newly married
French wife Of a wealthy Russian noble
was ABOUT 70 6HBdSe d INuSSldH Hldlu dt
st. Petersburg, when. on seeing the
papers, . she discovered that the girl was
a princess and a member OF a well
known but ruined family
The girl had been Vainly seeking en-
fployment for months. but the lady de-
clined to engage her.
"On reaching her country seat, how
ever, the lady discovered, to her amaze
ment, that the housekeeper was count
! ess, the henwife princess, while the
farm bailiff, blacksmith and coachmar
were possessed Of titles equally impos-
/ ing. AS their homes were situated in
the vicinity of my friends estate, their
real social position as little farmers and
peasants was well known. Had they
sought employment elsewhere, however
they would. in all probability. like the
/ Princess Zulukidse, have quickly sunk

ABSORBING PROBLEM
OF the Present Day.

The absorbing problem of today is,
how to expend ones income so as to at
tain the best results; that is, get full
value for ones money.
1t may truthfully be said that this has
been. is, and always Will be an absorbing
problem to those with limited means;
but the fact remains that, with the
price of living necessities constantly
rising one must husband ones resources
more carefully than ever before if he
would live within his income. In say
ing that prices are rising, we except one
article which has come to occupy a
prominent place in the family medicine
closet, ard that is the specific for piles
or hemorrhoids known. as Pyramid Pile
Cure; this remedy is stu sold by drug
gists at the old prices of fifty cents and
one dollar. and these prices will remain
unchanged. Those tc-whorn this prepa-
ration has brough relief and a cure
after years of suffering do not need to
be told of its merits; others are advised
that it is the greatest boon ever discov-
cred to all those afflicted with any
form of piles; it is in supository form,
is easily applied, reaches the seat of the
complaint and gives mediate relief and
a lasting cure
The reader may have tried saIves,
ointments and lotions without benefit,
and feeling that his money has been
wasted resolves TO s. fe1 c. rather tran
experiment farther. The reason for the
failure CT these tne9 tn cuts IS that they
do not reach the seat Of the trouble, and
hence do not remove the cause, as does
Pyramid Pile Cure. A little book de-
scribing piles. their cause and cure. is
published by the Pyramid Drug Co,
Marshall. Mich, and anyone may pro-
cure q copy by sending name and al
dress to above firm. AS showing the
estimation in which this remedy is held
by the public 1t may interest the reader

BIRDS OF PASSAGE.
Most of Them Are Constant Travellers
Except in Breeding Season.

A bird of passage is a bird-generally
in fock-On the way north or south.
This passage really covers most of the
spring and summer. There is hardly a
week from March to November when
hocks of birds are not moving from sta
ton to station. Robins go south from
northern parts as early as August L
that is, they start from their nesting
ately across the country. Orioles close
up housekeeping early in August, and
they spend a month in fitting about the
country, in a happy -go-lucky sort of
a way.
Interesting as birds are during their
brief nesting seasons, they are more in
teres ting during their travels. Their
sojourn anywhere is very brief. The
nearest to complete domestication is
found in the case of the catbird. When
treated well and Familiarity he comes
north about the 1st of May. and does
not leave US till some time in October.
He is not ali this while Nesting or
singing, but he is in the bushes ready

have proved yourself companionable
friend Hobins are very irregular about
coming or going, and some of them are
sure to be left behind all winter. Most
of the birds are gregariOus when trav-
cling; probably for the sake of safety. a
flock of very peaceful birds is compell-
ed to add the additional protection of
travelling by night. BY day they gener-
ally are resting or feeding lin some
pleasant locality. In the spring they al
ways are heard first in the early morn
ing; in the autumn their goodbye is
heard at the approach of evening. All
night they are on the wing.
1t is a mistake to suppose that any of
our birds care for home as a residence.
They only stay in one spot long enough
for single purpose; either for rearing
young. or to collect food. or tot escaDe
cold weather. These fellows that drop
down on US in the early morning to dine
from our mountain ash trees in August
or September are cosmopolitans. Some
