ON The WATER CART
Spring Water Drivers are There
Figuratively and Literally.
SALOON MEN BOYCOTT COMPANY
Drivers Were Notified Not to Have
fummy Breaths in Work.
ing Hours.

How'd you like to be the drinking
water man? There are advantages and
disadvantages attached to the business,
just as there are to others. To begin
with, the drinking water man doesn't al
ways drink water, and that fact has got
him into trouble.
Some time ago officials of one spring
water company were informed that some
Of their drivers who had saloons on their
route, were. developing a fondness for
beverages other than those handled by
the company. The information came in
such way that it could not be sighted,
and consequently the following order was
issued: -'.
For several years past some of our mer
have been in the habit OF drinking beer, etc,
and eating free lunches ir the saloons dur
ing working hours, which habit has ruined
several Of delivery men.
That any of our men should be seen hang
Ing around saloons, or should carry with
them the disgusting smell OF liquor upon their
breath during working hours, is a standing
disgrace to us.
We are paying good wages and are treat
ing our men with liberaity and fairness, and
We are entitled to their full time and best
efforts during working hours.
You are hereby notified that you cannot
work for us and drink liquor of any kind
during working hours.
If there is a saloon on your route that is
taking water and you cannot withstand the
temptation to deliver to the place without TAX
ing drink, you may notify and we will
arrange matters so that you will have no
further occasion to deliver to saloon.
This order was transmitted by one Of
the drivers to the Retail Liquor Dealers
association, and at it's meeting last night
the association decided to boycott the
spring company unless the order was at
once withdrawn. All members of the or
ganization have been asked to transfer
their trade to some other company whose
officials are not Temperance cranks," and
most of them will comply. There the
matter rests. Employees of the water
company cannot drink anything except
water or soft drinks during working
hours, while patrons of saloons cannot
have the aqueous product to take the
taste out of their mouths simply because
the saloons will not provide it. Neither
side shows the slightest intention OF re-
ceeding from its position.

BERRIES ARE EARLY
The First Big Shipment Arrived
To-day From Texas.
THE SEASON FAIRLY OPEN NOW
Texas Berries Are Plenty, but Dis.
tricts Farther North Expect
Shortage.

The season Of the succulent, delicious
and palatable strawberry is again abroad
in the land, and physicians whose spec
ialty is the treatment of the vermiform
appendix are figuring on the particular
style of automobile they will buy this
summer.
The first car lot of strawberries to
reach Minneapolis this spring was re-
ceived at noon to-day. They came from
Alvin, Texas, a small town about fifty
miles distant from Galveston, and were
shipped by refrigerator express at a cost
of just $40. ,-.., .- .~.r
Berries have been upon the market for
some time, but they have been received
only in small quantities and have COM
manded fancy prices. The shipment re-
ceived to-day was the first. large one Of
the season. Moreover, it reached here
earlier than has ever been the case in
former years. Tomorrow my lady should
be able to buy Strawberries at from 20
to 20 cents quart for the best varieties.
The car contained 452 crates of "a
! quarts each, or 10,S4S quarts in all. The
supply is expected to last about twenty
four hours, when other consignments,
now on the way, will arrive here.
The crop in Texas has been good this
spring, but farther north conditions are
not so favorable and a shortage will prob
| ably occur owing to the dry season last
year. From now on the strawberry belt
will move steadily north until it reaches
Minnesota. Within a few weeks local
| markets will receive berries from Arkan-
sas, Mississippi and Louisiana. few
shipments have already been received
from Louisiana, but the season is scarce
ly under way there as yet. and the re-
ceiptS have been small.
Alvin is one of the southernmost towns
in Texas, and the berries sent out from
there have been grown by natures sun
shine and rain, not forced in hothouses
or the result of irrigation, which too
often robs the berry of it's fine flavor
and leaves it comparatively tasteless and
unpleasing

What! Does the Grim Specter
Follow You Into the Joyous
Springtime?
Paine's Celery
Compound
Defeats the Work of Death by
Removing Your Terrible
Burden of Disease.

Are you still in suffering, misery and
dependency? Does the grim spectre
Death follow you closely as the joyous
sprlngtlme brings happiness and blessings
10 others around you? Are you still
cIlnglng tenaciously to false theories Of
physicians or friends who persist in as
surlng you that time, care, and the use OF
your present medicine will give you new
health?
Be assured your present condition is
perilous one. The continuance of the
medicine you are now using is folly;
you are simply trifing with life and
wasting precious time.
You should remember that while nature
clothes the fields with fresh grass and
flowers, and while the trees with a strong
life are showing bursting buds and new
foliage, that human beings-old and young
drop OFF in thousands in Springtime.
Now is the time for prompt, decided,
and practical action if life is TO be saved.
Prejudice and the erroneous theories Of
even medical men should be cast aside
when the hand Of death is upon you. 1t
matters not what your social position
be; the medicine that saves the humblest
man or woman is surely the one adapted
for the needs Of the rich and those in high
social positions.
Paine's Celery Compound has record
OF life saving that no other medicine can
ever equal. 1t has rescued rich and poor
from grasp of death when physicians and
their most carefully prepared prescrip-
tions failed in the work. II the suffering
men and women Of to-day could but see
the happy faces and hear the kind words
spoken by the tens of thousands who have
been made well and strong by Paines
Celery Compound, it would soon dispel
their existing doubts and fears.
Paine's Celery Compound is the only
medicine that reaches the root Of di-
sease; 1t is the only agency that can re-
move your terrible load of disease. I'm
solicited testimonials of cures pour in
every day. Young and old constantly bear
witness that rheumatism, neuralgia kid
ney disease, liver complaint, dyspepsia
and blood diseases are banished perman-
entity when Paine's Celery Compound is
faithfully used for time. Begin It's use
to-day poor sufferer; delays are danger

SOUVENIRS OF GERARDY
YOUNG ARTIST HAS THEM GALORE
While Royalty Has Bestowed Many
Decorations on Famous Gel
list Coming Here.

For young celebrity, Jean Gerardy,
the cello virtuoso. who is to be heard
here 'on the evening of April "a at the
Lyceum Theater, in conjunction with Josef
Hofmann, the pianist, and Fritz kreisler,
the viollnist, possesses so many souve-
Mrs and decorations that they would Gre
ate jealousy among the prima donnas in
an opera company We're he to be the
tenor. But as he isn't. no harm will
come from telling about them.
When Gerardy was IS years old, the
French government decorated him with u
badge Of Officer of Public Instruction,
which is one grade below that of the Lee
gion of Honor. The same year he was
decorated by the Queen of Italy with the
badge of the Order of the Knight CT Isa-
bella Ia CatholiCue, a decoration never
before conferred roon one of mis- age. In
the early part of last November he was
again decorated by the French govern
ment, this time with the button OF the
Legion Of Honor. He has had six degrees
for Bachelor of Music conferred upon him
by European Conservatives. He pos
sesses souvenirs galore, running from
skins Of wild animals to a r!inatur/
cello which was presented to him by the
Princess of Wales. now Queen of Eng
land. 1t is of gold, edged with diamonds,
and is in the shape of scarf pin.
With the late Queen Victoria Gerardy
was great favorite. He appeared before
her six times and as souvenirs lie was
presented with a match box with his in
itials in diamonds, a cigarette case con-
tanning the Royal insignia il rubies, a
watch fob with the initials Y. r. in dia-
monds and rubies, cuff buttons, diamond
and pearl scarf pin and a picture of the
queen with her autograph encased in a
gold frame.
By the pope he was presented with a
cameo ring. From the conservatory of
Liege, from which Gerardy is a graduate,
and the youngest who ever went forth, an
album containing autograph pictures of it's
most distinguished masters and scholars.
Last summer when Gerardy was in Aus
tralia he was presented with set of
twenty-four skins by an admlrer, repre-
senting some of the animals of the coun-
try.
One of Gerardy's most valuable souve-
Mrs is that of a fifty dollar American
bank note. 1t represents the first money
he earned by his playing. Shortly after
his graduation from the Leige corserya-
tory musicale was given at the house
of the american Minister. Here Ger
ardy was invited to play, and in return
was presented with the bank. note, which
was to him more money than he had ever
possessed at one time in his life be-
fore. This he cherishes more than any
thing else, for at this musicale ne met
many Americans, who are now among his
warmest friends. sss.s

SOUTHWESTERN COAL TRAFFIC.
Gates and the c., b. & @. Are at War
Over 1t.


New York. April 10.-John w. Gates
and the Chicago, Burlington Quincy
are at war over coal traffic in the south
west. Burlington interests have incor-
porated an independent line into new coal
fields, refusing to be coerced by Gates
into buying another Of the Gates roads.
When Gates sold the Quincy, Omaha &
Kansas City road to the Burlington he
neglected to include in that transaction
the available coal properties tributary to
that line. The Quincy & Omaha therefore
was left without coal properties, and Mr..
Gates, it is alleged, took steps to or
ganize the independent operators in the
district into a combine, so as to shut
out the Burlington entirely.
Mr.. Gates then organized the Iowa & ST..
Louis railway company and began to
build railway up and down the Charlton
valley in Iowa. from Novinger to point
on the Quincy, Omaha & Kansas City,
