the trial of 600 Christians charg- ed with the Klshineff massacre. will be- gin November 10. The indictment has been published by Russian paper aptly called oswobosondenje. As was to be expected several points in palliation of the mobs savagery have been suggested and the proceedings will be strictly pri- vate. On that account 1t is very certain that no extensive newspaper reports will be allowed to leak out In the rush of events Kishinefr has been almost forgot ten. Even the great petition from Amer lean citizens is now safely stored away where 1t will do neither good nor evil and where once the front page of yellow journals was devoted to the subject an obscure corner inside it now considered sufficient Even if all those indicted were convicted 1t is hardly probable that pun- ishment would have very salutary ef- feet on Christian haters of the Jews. But which is now desired is conviction.
 The long expected has now happened
 After career which has perfectly fitted her for the profession Mrs. Molineux who announces that she will go on the stage
 She has already signed a contract with Procter, the vaudeville manager, to sing at his Twenty-third street theatre twice daily for period covering ten or fifteen consecutive weeks. This step has been predicted for some time, so that 1t has really caused no surprise. It is some consolation to know that Mrs. Scott. as cd fo
 some talent, and before her marriage with Molineux was a choir singer in Brook lyn. Her musical education has not been neglected, for she has had the advanta ees or training abroad Her voice Is said to be contralto of good range. Clothed In the glamour of her sensational past and withal fairly good looking. Mrs. Scott bids fair to be a great attraction to tho popular priced public of Gotham.
 It Is reported that Czar Nicholas ia much alarmed over the throat affliction which has overtaken Emperor William since he kissed that monarch recently at Wiesbaden. The czar dominates such custom among men at least. but he dared not object to the embraces of William, who insisted on being very profuse in his favors for reasons called political. Now that a report is circu- lated that the German kaiser may be threatened with cancer, which is known to run In the royal family Nicholas has been much perturbed for fear that he has contracted the disease by oscuIa- tion. It is said that he is very angry at the kaiser for insisting on the cere- mony when he knew that his throat was infiamed The czar has issued a circu- lar letter to his brother rulers asking that the custom of kissing among men be abolished. He will probably receive the support of the emperor of Austria
 who recently ignored the open arms of Leopold of Belgium and thereby so up- set the old gentleman that his legs be- came entangled in his sword, very nearly throwing him to the ground. Both from hygienic and common sense reasons the czar should be compliment

Demand for Street Cars.

No public utility has advanced so rap idly in recent years as street car ser- vice." said w T. Pllkinton of Virginia, who is interested in the manufacture of cars, and who is now making study of interurban trolley lines.
 Railway cars are now more luxurious in every way than they were ten years ago. but when it comes to improvements made in the past three of four years the street cars have made greater records.
 Every year finds trolley cars more el- egant and more up to date than the year before, and the tracks laid with heavier rails. In no business in the world, per- haps, is scientific economy more closely studied than in the construction and op- eration of street car lines.
 The demand for trolleys is constantly increasing The old manufacturing plants cannot supply the demand. They are, in fact from two to three years behind with their orders. And street car devel- opment is yet in it's infancy.''

r. /. AND U. r. DEAL
Plan Developing That viii Be OF Great
Advantage to Rock Island.

1t is authoritatively stated from New ork
that an important development Is pend
ing between the Rock Island and the
Union Pacific Southern Pacific system.
The value Of a close relation between the
two lines is obvious. BY a traffic ar
rangement the Rock Island would gain
outlet to the west coast.
The Rock Island on the north makes
junction with the Union Pacific at Den
yer and it's traffic by this route could
reach Portland or, San Francisco, while on
the south the Rock Island joins the South
ern Pacific at FL Paso and could thereby
reach Los Angeles. in Lower California.
Such deal would open up the Pacific
coast territory to the Rock Island rail-
road system. which extends on the north
to Minneapolis, on the east to Chicago,
st. Louis and Memphis, on the south to
Galveston and on the west to Denver and
Ell Paso.
An agreement involving the Rock Island
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific would
represent total mileage Of about 10000
miles.
The Rock Island and the Chicago Great
Western companies have jointly purchased
$50 acres of land at Sioux City and vii
use the property for joint terminals. The
| Chicago Great Western is now building
an extension to Sioux City.

A TALK ON ELECTRICITY
Recent Discoveries to BE De
scrlbed in the Y. M. c. AS

Next Tuesday evening the Y. M. G. A.
popular entertainment course will offer Its
patrons a novel lecture of great interest.
It will be an illustrated lecture on cleo
tricity, a lecture full of amusing demon
strations, brilliant experiments, elaborate
apparatus, beautiful and spectacular sur
prises. It is amazing how little most Of
the intelligent people Of the day know
about electricity Three-fourths Of the
people who use the electric cars would be
"foored'' by a child's why as to what
makes the wheels go round. This lecture
by Louis Favour will afford a splendid
opportunity for people to rub up their
knowledge of electricity and it's laws At
the same time 1t will be no dry lecture. II
will be electric in its effect upon the audi
ence. The novelty Of the demonstrations
will keep everybody on the qui vive and
eager to see what Mr.. Favour will dc
next. The famous author John Kendrich
Bangs says that Mr.. F'avour's lecture al
| the Amackassin Club was very interest
| ing. Entertainment managers wherever
Mr.. Favour has been give similar reports
He is about the only lecturer now before
the public in this field.

The tendency of medical science ID
toward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given Il
the subject. It is easier and better tc
prevent than to cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of the
most dangerous diseases that medical
men have to contend with, can be pre-.
vented by the use of. Chamberlainh
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always re,
suits from a cold or from an attack of in,
Auenza (grip), and it has been observed
that this remedy c~ounteracts any ten
dcucy of these diseases toward pneumo-
mia. This has been fully proven in
many thousands Of cases in which this
remedy has been used during the great
prevalence Of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with inn
pligit confidence. Pneumonia otter, re
suits from a slight cold when no danger
is apprehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the chest, then
it Is announced that the patient has
pneumonia. Be on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as 0 as
the cold is contracted. 1t always cures.
