WIS. CENT. CHANGE.
Reported Purchase by Canadian
Pacific Regarded Improbable.
ILL. CENT. PURCHASE IS LOGICAL
Railroad Men Believe the G.. r. IF.
Has Enough to Do in Its
Own Territory.

Of the numerous reports regarding the
prospective sale of the Wisconsin Central
road, the Illinois Central purchase is re-
garded by railroad men as the most
logical and that is considered remote. The
Wisconsin Central is now In the hands
of voting trust and will remain SO for
two years, during which no transfer can
be made. President H. F. Whitcomh OF
the Wisconsin Central declined to discuss
the reported sale of the road to the
Canadian Pacific when seen in Milwaukee
this morning.
Railway officials familiar with the stu
alton say that the Canadian Pacific con-
templates no such extensive additions to
its lines in the United States as the pur-
chase of the. Wisconsin Central. It's pol
ICY Is to perfect it's system in Canada be-
fore invading new territory in America.
When it is ready to tap new country 1t
is held that the Canadian Pacit1c's efforts
will be directed toward assisting the 500
in extensive plans in the northwest. The
Canadian. Pacific as a foreign corporation
is handicapped in the handling of ter
minals in America except by working
through an American corporation. If it
desired terminals in Chicago the purchase
Of road entering that city would be the
first move. The Wisconsin Central owns
no terminals in Chicago to speak Of and
in that respect would not be attractive to
the Canadian road. H.
PennsyIvania's Fast Train.
The Pennsylvania intends to put on a
fast train for through travel between Chi
cago and New York which will make the
run in seventeen and a half hours. The
average speed will be fifty seyen miles an

men of New York and Chicago to spend
a day in either city without loss of a
business hour in the home city. The
eastbound train will leave Chicago at 1880
or p. m. and arrive in New York at 8
o'clock the next morning, WHICH is 7
o'clock Chicago time. The westbound
train will leave New York at 3 p. m. and
arrive in Chicago at a. m, or a. m.

WORK; DON'T WORRY.
Prest. Northrop's Chapel Talk on
the Strenuous Life.
AMERICANS NOT TOO STRENUOUS
In Fact They Are Not So Much
So as Fifty Years
Ago.

':Do with your might, but don't worry;
live the life strenuous, but avoid the lie
of worry
That was the Keynote of-a stirring adj
dress made by President Northrop before
1900 students gathered in chapel hall this
morning.
The address, which was on 1.-The strenu-
Gus Life was given In response to a
request from the students and is consid-
cred the best expression of sound advice,
vitalized by lofty inspiration, that has
been heard in chapel In many day
Through the entire address ran current
OF wit and humor so characteristic OF
President Northrop: He began with a
denial that the American people to-day
live too strenuous a life. The president
proceeded: &t5.z ..>.atr
American; life today Is not so strenuous as
fifty years ago Many OF us do not work as
hard as think We do. Student life to-day
is not the strenuous life 1t was att Yale and
Harvard a half century ago. This is true in
other industries of life Take the common
laborer. Who ever saw a5eommon latorer
working strenuously? It's touching to see
the philosophical regularity with which a
street laborer deposits the spoonful of earth
On the staging above him, then stops to medi-
tate upon the shurtness Of life and the posi-
biIity OF early death through over-exertion.
Tho life of the farmer is easier than it used
to be. ~ /,
Life upon the grand fields of the west is
not the strenuous life of the eastern farmer
back half century ago, before the general
use OF agricultural machinery. The same is
true OF the mechanic. the lawyer. the doctor.
The ,old-tint clergyman lived the strenuous
life when he preached sermons an hour and
fifty minutes in length, but public sentiment
upholds him iii giving UP his strenuous
life The life OF the educator is a paradise
compared with that OF fifty years ago, but
there is one class in American society that
does live the, life strenuous, and that is bust
ness men. There is no peace for him. Pleas
ant competition of a few years ago has given
place to combination and aggregation OF in
dustry. Business men are the men who col
lapse, who die suddenly. What is it that
does it? Il isn't work. 1t is worry. What
kills is not work. but worry. The lesson is,
not to be lazy, not to avoid a strenuous life,
but to avoid life of worry

State Said to Be Making a Strong
Case Mt Faulkton.
Faulkton, s. D, May THE prelimi-
nary hearing of Joseph Coleman, charged
with the murder Of his brother Edward,
commenced in Justice Smiths court at 10
a. m. to day Frank Turner, states at
torney, assisted by Senator J. H. Bottum,
represents the state, and ex-Congressman
J. A Picker Of Faulkton, and Judge A.
w. Campbell Of Aberdeen, appeared for
the defendant.
Drs. v. NJ. Miller and I. j. Sampson of
Mellette, who assisted in the postmortem,
were examined as witnesses. About ten
witnesses for the state are here from Mel
lette. DR.. McNutt of Aberdeen, is an ex-
pert witness for the defense. In all there
will be about thirty or more witnesses to
examine, and the hearing will last some
time. ~
The testimony so far makes a stronger
case for the state than was brought out at
the inquest.

the same game. But this time they refused
to feed him and left the cell door Open, and
when his hunger compelled him, he moved
out and away.
. In another Of these prisons only last sum
mer it was common practice for the jaier
and prisoner to play cards together nightly,
with others of the village. These gatherings
came to be the chief social feature OF the
village life, and the sessions were frequently
prolonged until midnight, when the .jaiier
would intimate that it was time to close,~ and
he would bow out the visitors, lock up the
prisoner and retire to his own quarters to
sleep the sleep Of the just.
1t is a free and easy rule which prevails in
these prisons, and very rarely is it abused,
for smugglers and deserters are the worst Of
tenders and their sentences are usually very
short. ,-.--
The same leniency characterizes the outport
magistrates. They resort to. every alternative
save that of inlprisoning. ---.

month for stealing pocketbook from COM

man had returned it in the morning, having
taken it in a joke, but the loser had made
a hue and cry meanwhile, and the magistrate
felt that he had to uphold the reputation OF
the bench and make an example OF one of his
own kindred. ~.
Serious crime Is practically existent in
the outports, ard the magisterial positions are
almost sinecures. OF course, many civil cases
come up, otherwise they would have nothing
whatever to do. ----s

The extreme scarcity of the greatly adver-

southern resorts that derive their name from
this stately tree suggested to the wife of a
prominent western congressman, who recently
made a tour of the south, the appropriateness
of new title to allure the traveller to these

Pineville, Southern Pines and Pine Tree Inn,

GAMBLERS ARE IMMUNE
Civil Suits Are OF No Avail by De-
cision Of Judge Holt.

By a decision rendered by Judge Holt
in municipal court it appears that it is
impossible to recover by civil action any
money lost in a gambling house. De-
PENDANTS in such cases may refuse to an
swer discriminating questions. The point
came w in case brought by Gordon
Malcolm against John Flanagan, Michael
Shelley, William, A. Tanner and Charles
Brown to recover 1925. When the de-
PENDANTS were asked if they were the
owners Of the gambling house they refused
to answer, standing onsthe statutory right
to refuse to answer incrimina ting cues
lions. Judge Holt sustained them and
dismissed the case, as it was impossible
to try it without their testimony.
