The New Train.

For some time past there has been
talk in railroad circles OF new train
which is to be put on the run between
Chicago and San Francisco by the Union
Pacific and the Central Pacific. Now
there is definite news concerning it.
The Union Pacific agencies throughout
the country have been notified that on
April 1st the Union Pacific would start
o1t Of Chicago the solid vestibule train
composed OF an observation and library
car combined, dining car, and three
Pullman sleepers right out Of the shops.
Even the locomotive that will pull the
train will be new. There will be no
coaches, baggage or mail cars. The en-
tire train from one end to the other will
be lighted by electricity. 1t will with
out doubt be the finest trair ever sent
out Of Chicago, and as magnificent as
any that has ever been sent out of any
other city in the United States.
The train will be daily both east and
west between Chicago and San Eran-
cisco running via Ogden and Omaha.
As to speed, it will strike only the high
places.

Mrs. Ann Rickey, highly respect
ed lady Of Carson, has written the
following. which explains itself:
To the Trib Company:
Gentlemen-I sprained my foot and
ankle very severely, turning the foot
clear over. tried a number OF appli-
cations which usually relieve sprains
but without effect. At the end Of
shres days the swelling was greater
than ever. the pain intolerable, and l
could not walk. The whole foot was
double its natural size and black in
color. / then tried Trib. In a few
days was entirely we'll, and to-day
that ankle is better and stronger than
the other. The Trib seems to have
renewed the life OF the whole limb
Use my name in recommending Trib.
Keep on advertising until all the
world has knowledge of the great
value, the great blessing-of this new
remedy. ANN RICKEY.
Mrs. Rickey's testimony is confirm
ed by that Of hundred others in and
about this city.-Carson News.

Death of a Well
Known Physician.

DIR. II. H. Hogan, practicing ply
sician Of Washoe county since 1854, died
in Reno at $50 Monday morning. DIR.
Hogan was born in Alburg, Vermont,
over SO years ago. He served his
country during the Civil war, enlisting
as a private in the 142 New York In
fantry and serving until 1858 when he
was discharged for disability as Second
Lieutenant. He came to Nevada in
1854, locating in the busy town OF WASH
oe, where be practiced his profession IN.
til the county seat was removed to Reno.
DR.. Hogan was prominent in the poll
tics Of the State as Greenbacker and
Populist- He established the Reno
Plaindealer in which he advocated the
principles OF the Greenback party. When
that party was absorbed by the Popu-
lists he ide ntified himself with that
movement. He represented Nevada in
the National Populist convention in
1900. He was disgusted with the course
pursued by his party and from that time
on took but little interest in politics.
He represented Washoe county 10 the
Assembly in 1871 and again in 1875. He
served his State we'll as legislator and
as private citizen. Peace to his ashes.

News Notes.

A short time ago a Kentucky girl
horsewhipped dentist for making "goo-
goo" eyes at her. One OF the local editors
Of the town in writing up the affair
stated that the girls bosom was filed
with rage. The mischievous printer put
it "rags." They say the editor is still
camping out on the hill north Of town.
Eight society women we're recently re-
fused admission to ball at Philadelphia
because they wore gowns that were
too closely pruned at the top. Later
they were permitted to cover the pow
dered scope Of skin with wraps and sit
and watch tho festivities as spectators.
A six weeks old child IN Kansas is ac-
quiring fame as prophet and frighten-
ing people. 1t began to speak when
three weeks old and at six weeks declared
that six years of famine were impending.
A number of people who have heard il
have packed up their goods and are pre-
pairing to leave the State, believing that
period of drouth is impending. 1t is
an easy matter to frighten people. If the
child had predicted years of uuprece
dented crops aud the discovery of golo
mine on every farm, there would have
been a rush Of people to Kansas

Another Univer-
sity RuCtion.

The State University is in the throes
again. 1t appears that the editors Of the
Student Record, the college paper, pub
lshed articles that did not have the ef-
feet of tickling the President of the Uni
versity. The matter eliminated few
days ago in the suspension Of Mr.. Spring
meyer, Of Carson Valley, editor in chief
OF the publication. He had been selected
to take part in the deb te with Hastings
Law College but did not do so. Very
few copies of the Record reached this
city and so it is presumed the censor got
in his work.
Every school has its troubles but for a
small one-horse institution the Univers-

grievance more than its legal proportion

the institution or secure the services of
