Rock Island-El PasO Passenger
Goes Through Topeka.
Inaugurates a New Transconti-
mental Route From East.
TRAIN WAS CROWDED.
New Westbound Train Passes
Through at Midnight.
Offers Low Altitude Route to
the Pacific Coast.

Passenger train service on the new
Rock Island FL Paso line has been in
stalled.
The first train passed through To-
peka last night at 11:45. ON schedule
time. 1t was composed of seven cars.
one standard Pullman, one tourist
Pullman, one chair car, one dining car,
one smoking car and baggage and OK
press cars
Among others on board were w. J.
Leahy, assistant general passenger
agent of the road, from Chicago; E. NJ
Duncan, travelling passenger agent, of
Topeka; Dean Low. live stock agent of
the Rock Island, of Topeka; G.. W.
Sherman, superintendent of dining car
service, of Wichita, and a representa-
tive of the Topeka State Journal, to-
gether with several newspaper men
from the east.
The train service of the Rock Island
on the FL Paso short line will be main
tanned at a high standard. Trains will
be vestibuled throughout, and will have
the latest modern improvements in car
construction. The cars are also
equipped with steel platforms, which
greatly diminisheS the danger to pas
sengers in event of a collision by pre-
venting the possibility of telescoping the
coaches.
If the patronage of the initial train
may be taken as criterion, the success
and popularity of the new Rock Island
S-ibl ilI-- " StSO anu Los AnSeieS,
Cal, is assured. Every berth in both
the standard and tourist Pullman cars
was taken, and the chair car and smok-
ing cars were comfortably filled.
The Rock Island claims to be the low
altitude line to California The highest
point on the Rock Island line is at
Gallinas, N NJ, $685. feet above the sea
level The highest point on the Santa
IFe is 1908 feet above the sea level, at
Ration pass. The highest point on the
Union Pacific line is at sherman, Wyo,
The fact that the Rock Island is the low
altitude line will be of great value in
securing California business.
The Rock Island railroad anticipates
securing the contracts with the govern
ment for carrying the transcontinental
the Rock Island carries the mail
brought to Kansas City from Buffalo,
n. Y, and the east by the Wabash train
that arrives in Kansas City at $50.
One of the reasons the Rock Island
will urge for securing the contracts for
carrying the through continental mail
is that when the train service on the
new Ell Paso line is finally brought up
to the standard intended it will bring
the west from u to "A hours nearer the
east than present train service allows.
The new line of the road to FL PaSo
is laid with so pounu steel, the heaviest
used in railway track construction
Naturally when a new line is opened
be met with to get train service into
the best OF working order, but when
they are the Rock Island officials claim
they will be able to offer the best time
in reaching Ell Paso, Los Angeles and
other Pacific coast points from the east.

Few people seem to be aware of the dam
gers Of weak, defective and disordered diges-
ton. Health reports do not give 1t as a
cause of death because some other disease
sets in to work destructive changes, only
made possible by the imperfect digestion,
and the death is credited to them.
Typhoid fever is credited with, many
deaths, yet were digestion always perfect
there would be no typhoid fever. Doctors
call typhoid "enter1c,' meaning bowel fever.
1t is due to germ that in food or drink is
swallowed. II reaches the bowel only by
way of the stomach. 1t cannot live In the
secretions of a vigorous stomach. Normal
gastric juice would destroy and digest it. If
the stomach Is weak and inactive disease
germs may succeed in passing on into the
bowel In the secretions of which they thrive
and we suffer from the diseases that they
engender. Thus a good digestion is great
safeguard against disease by destroying dan
gerous germs that in food and water enter
the body through the stomach.
Consumption is credited with nearly one
sixth of the deaths of adult persons. No
account is made In the mortality reports of
the fact that the "chronic starvation due to
dyspepsia had so weakened the half-fed
tissues and reduced their vital force and
power of resistance as to predispose to the
ravages of consumption.
Fevers due to toxines or ptomaines de-
veloped In the body from putrefactive
changes in rotting, haf-digested food are
credited with many deaths. No thought
seems to be given to the fact that dyspepsia
was the real cause. People do not seem to
realize that imperfectly digested food putri-
fes, deeomposes, ferments and develops
peculiar poisons that are absorbed into the
blood causing dangerous fevers, poisoning
tissues and overtaxing those organs that
have to eliminate it.
Many other facts can be cited along this
line, but enough has been said to convince
thoughtful people that the discomfort or
actual distress occasioned by dyspepsia is of
little consequence compared with the actual
dangers to which it exposes one.
Every organ and tissue of the body
depends on the stomach for nourishment
and renewal that will prepare 1t to perform
satisfactorily its function and resist disease.

ON THE ALERT.
Active Campaign Against Trusts Has
Been Begun by Roosevelt.

St. Paul. Mimi, March 3.-High rail-
way officials of the Northwestern lines
say that they have learned that Attor-
ney General Knox, of the department of
justice at Washington, has notified the
district attorneys of various west arn
states, including Minnesota. to watch
for any violations of the interstate COM
merce act and to prosecute such viola
tons if discovered The order is said to
apply to the shipper as we'll as to the

cent disclosures before the interstate
commerce commission in Chicago and
the indignation of President Roosevelt
when he learned of what was really tax
ing place with the interstate commission
quietly watching things and saying
nothing.

USE HEAVY TRUCKS.
Important Experimental ChangeMade
on Thirty Santa Fe Freight Cars.

Important Experimental ChangeMade
on Thirty Santa Fe Freight Cars.
BY way. of experiment, 80 freight cars
are in the sheds here to have the trucks
on which heretofore they have been run
taken out and heavier ones substituted.
One class having trucks of &C, 600 pounds
capacity are to have those of 10000
pounds, and those already with $4,000
trucks are to be replaced by those of
$4,000 pounds capacity. Material has
been received from Chicago and Day
ton, Ohio, and as rapidly as they come
in the change viii be made. The heav-
Ter truck is to be a cast steel one, ami
that of $4,000 pounds is what is known
as a 'schannel-bar'' truck"
This change is in line with the tend
eucy toward heavier equipment of all
kinds as well as a heavier track upon
which trains are to be run. Lately
nearly all the cars being built are not
less than $4,000 pounds capacity, this
class being commensurate with the
large locomotives being put into service
all over the system. 1t is probable that
the present changes will be continued
until all the car trucks on the Santa F'e
will be changed to accommodate 4
heavier load.
