HIRES GOOD MEN.
Rock Island Spending Fancy Sums in
Salaries.

In discussing the policy of the Rock Is
land to draw efficient officers into its SER
vice. the Wall Street Journal says
The Rock Island company has for the
past year been engaged in gathering to-
gether for the administration of its rail-
ways a collection of officials of the high
est ability. The matter. of price has
hardly entered into the calculation at all.
Great Northern and Northern Pacific have
been outbid for several of their ablest
men. aeE eaef "a
The chief engineer of the Rock Island
is the man that built Great Northern.
John A Stevens. He has for years been
recognized about the best of the great
railroad engineers of, the continent. He
went to Rock Island because they Of
fered him more money. than Great North
ern could pay. The Rock Island people
are ambitious. They recognize that for
the fulfllment of their ambitions they
must have the best there is in the coun-
try. For that reason they choose to pay
what might be considered a fancy price
for the engineer that built Great North
ern through the Rocky mountains on a
grade that even Mr.. Hill calls low. Mr.
Stevens leaves a monument to himself on
the line of Great Northern in the shape
of Stevens Pass which he discovered
and which was named for him. His feat
of driving the great tunnel through the
Cascade mountains with a variation Of
one-efghth of an inch between the sec
lions working from both sides. has never
been eoualed in the history of American
engineering
Within the past two years ten Great
Northern men, of more or less recent
graduation from Mr.. Hills school. have
Joined the ranks of the Rock Island.

STOP WITHIN 30 DAYS.
Pennsyivania to Suspend Further
Work on Vast Imnrouarnanta

Philadelphia, Oct. 21.-The Pennsyl-
vania railroad will suspend further op-
erations on great part of the vast i'm
provement on extension work It is es-
timated that nearly $4,000, 900 of new
work already under contract will be
stopped within 80 days.
Formal notice was given today to sew
eral contractors to suspend work on No
vember 10. Other orders of like tenor
will be issued without delay. An fmme-
diate result of this sudden action by the
Pennsylvania railroad to curtail expend-
itures will be the throwing out of work
of several thousand men employed by
the contractors.
The purpose is to stop all improve
ments and extension work from which
direct benefit cannot be derived this
year, except where the work is so far
advanced or in such shape that opera
lions cannot be suspended without dam
ger of serious damage to the work al
ready done. Heavy excavation work
will be stopped.
Work now to be suspended will be ia
ken up again only on its merits newly
considered. Everything dropped now
provements and extensions which will
be recommended for next year. Sche-
dulles of such work are now being pre-
pared to be submitted to Joseph r.
Richards, chief engineer of maintenance
of way.
After he cuts out what he shall deem
unnecessary or premature the revised
schedules go to William H. Brown,
chief engineer and from him to Presi-
proved and put under contract, but now
stopped. must go through the usual
course of new work proposed before 1t
shall be taken UP again.

WILL TRAINMEN Help

Kansas City, Mo, Oct. 21.-Members of

Pacific Express company's employees. Rep
resentatives of the grievance committees
of the various local unions in the district
affected by the walkout of messengers,
truckmen and drivers, will gather in St

If they should decide now to go on
strike many lines in Missouri, Kansas and
Texas would be tied up. The tranmen
have been aiding the strikers Indirectly.

grievance committee of the Brotherhood

IS YOUR STOMACH ON
A STRIKE?
There is nothing to prevent you em-
pIoying a substitute to do its work.

There is such thing as forbearance
ceasing to be a virtue even in the case
of ones stomach. There is no question
but that some stomaehs will stand a
great deal more wear and tear and
abuse than others, but they all have
their limit and when that limit is reach
ed, the stomach must be reckoned with
as sure as fate. The best way and real
ly the only effective way to treat your
stomach when it rebels is to employ d
substitute to do it's work. This will
give the weakened and worn out organ
an opportunity to rest and regain it's
strength and health.
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets relieve the
stomach of its work by taking up ths
work and doing it just as one set or
shift of workmen relieves another. They
actually digest the food in just the same
manner and Just the same time a. the
digestive fluids of a sound stomach do.
In fact when dissolved in the stomach
they are digestive fluids for they contain
exactly the same constituents and ele-
ments as the gastric Juice and other di-
gestive fluids of the stomach. No mat
ter what the condition of the stomach
is. their work is just the same. They
work in their own natural way without
regard to surrounding conditions.
The stomach being thus relieved by
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, is restored
and renewed by nature and the rest of
the human body does not suffer in the
least by reason of its failure to perform
its work.
A Wisconsin man says: st suffered
the pangs of dyspepsia for 10 years. I
tried every known remedy with indif-
ferent results until I was told or the
remarkable cures of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. I bought box, began taking
them and forgot L had stomach. Three
boxes cured me completely I have had
no trouble whatever for a year and have
l. L.
eat anything that is set before me with
out fear-0f bad results
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale
by all druggists at soc box. The drug
gist never fails TO have them in stock
because the demand for them is so great
and so pronounced that he cannot afford
to be without them. People who could
not get them of one druggist would go
to another and would get in the habit
of buying their. other drugs there as we'll
as their Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

ORIENT HAS HAD ENOUGH.
Will Cease Its Fight on the Santa Fe
at Emporia.

Emporia, Kan, Oct 21.-An Emporia
real estate agent who has transacted
considerable business for the Orient
railroad says he has been informed
that the Orient will quit the case with
the Santa Fe about the land at Second
avenue and West street and will buy
land to cut across the corner of the
block. The Orient will buy four or five
lots on the east side of West street
south from the corner of Second avenue
and will run the right-of-way across
the block just as it would have angled
across the Santa Fe'S ground. This I'M
doubtedly would have been the better
way out for the Orient in the first
place as the land will not cost the ORR
ent much more than the lawsuit with
the Santa Fe. There is now fear that
trouble may arise between the Orient
and the Santa Fe about land over
