The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure In all It's stages and
that Is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure Ii
the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a con-
stitutional disease, requires a constitu-
uonal treatment. Halls catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the founda-
ton of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assistingnature In doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith In Its curative powers, that they
offer one Hundred Dollars for any case
that II fails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials.

ENGINES WILL BURN OIL.
Southern PacifiN Preparing to Abandon the
Use Of Coal Entirely.

Oil as fuel has proved such a success
on all the lines of the Southern Pacific
that general orders have been issued
oil-burners as soon as possible. Coal will
be abandoned absolutely. Within a year
the Southern Pacific will be on an oil
basis entirely. The order will affect all
divisions of the company. The Western
division is in the lead in the number of
vision comes next and the Los Angeles
division third. All of these divisions are
using oil for about one-third Of the traf-
fic. The Western division now has sixty
three oil-burning engines. There remain
eighty-three yet to be converted. 1t is
estimated that within eight months all
of the engines will have been converted
and the use of coal on the Western d.
vision permanently abandoned 1t re-
quires on an average 1000 gallons, or
about twenty-four barrels. of oil for
every 100 miles, as compared to five tons
of coal. The saving on every 100 miles
by using oil ranges from SIS to $50. The
tothi sdNlH6 LOT tue 1Vu,VoU InlieS Travelled
by oi-burning engines represents from
$4,000 to $4,000 per month.
The company has expended upwards
of 100000 for oil. The saving effected
will have paid for the enormous expendi-
ture long before all the engines have
been converted into oil-burners. On the
Western division alone the saving per
month when all the engines have been
converted will approximate $4,000. When
the other coast divisions use oil exclu-
sively the total sum saved will be up
wards of 100000 per month
