RAILROAD LOSES THE CASE
Colorado & SOuthern's Proposed short
Line set Back by Supreme
Court Decision.

DENVER, April THE Colorado &
Southern railways proposed short line to
Cripple Creek and possible cutoff via the
canyon on the south fork of the Platte re-
ceived a setback by a decision Of the SUI
preme court handed down today by Judge
Gabbert.
The railway company has been ready for
SOM time to begin work and has been only
awaiting the courts decision. In 1896 the
Denver Power and Irrigation company filed
on land in Platte canyon for a reservoir
sito $50 feet high and backing UP the water
for six or eight miles. The Colorado &
Southern then laid claim to a right OF way
over the land in question by virtue Of a
deed from railroad companies which had
made filings and begun to lay rails in the
canyon. Suit was brought by the power and
irrigation company to condemn the land
wanted. The district court decided against
the power and irrigation company. but the
supreme court reverses this Judgment and
remands the case.
In his opinion Justice Gabbert holds that
a railroad company cannot hold lands, even
IL 1t has laid rails. unless it runs a bona
fde railway.

This absence OF feminine health and
vigorous vitality is due to a neglect OF ma
lures unerring laws. Immediate reforma-
ton is necessary II our nation would have
women who will become true wives and
mothers with an offspring that will prove a
strength to the country.
For the special weaknesses TO which
women are now victims, Paine's Celery

Paine's Celery Compound quickly gives
the true health tint to sallow and bloodless

It gives pure, clean blood to course through
