they will find fault with everything there.
The only time they really seem to enjoy
life is when they are pouring their ills,
real and imaginary, into your ears.
The less one hears Of the ills and aches
Of others the better they like it. Each
one has enough Of his own to bear without

For this reason, whatever the western
car situation may be, the Great Western
is still able to fill all Minneapolis orders.
Saturday the road sent 100 cars to the
mills and elevators filing every order for
the Interstate, Standard and H. Elevators,
the Daniels oil mill, the Railway Trans
fer company, a belt line to the mills. and
the Minneapolis Western, another mill belt

From Feb. / to Feb. 20 inclusive the

Railroads.
GET RATE, ANYWAY
Homeseekers Along the M. & St. L.
Given Advantages of Low
Rates by the Road.
Merger Roads Block Through Ticket
Plan-But the M. & St. 1.
Acts Independently.

The Minneapolis & st. Louis road has
taken an independent step in the matter
of homeseekers rates It will protect it
self and give the twin city land agents
something to work on. It has announced
that, for the benefit of landseekers NOV
ing out Of it's territory into the northwest,
it has been decided to place the following
arrangements into effect:
beginning March 3 and every Thursday
thereafter, we will make a rate of one
fare plus 81 to st. Paul or Minneapolis and
return, from all points on the Iowa Central
railway and from points on the Minneapo-
lis & st. Louis railway in the state Of
Iowa, on the certificate plan; i. e., one
way tickets must be bought and receipts
taken, which latter will be honored for
returning tickets at 50, provided they are
certified by agents of connecting lines in
lardseekers' territory and are presented
for return not earlier than the third nor
later than the twenty first day following
the date Of purchase Of going ticket.
1t is understood that connecting lines
at st. Paul and Minneapolis will continue
to make the customary rate of one fare
for the round trip to points in Minnesota
and North Dakota through their land de-
partments on any day.
The st. Louis will, of course. relv on the
land agents for whom they have taken
this step to cooperate In continuing the
pleasant relations which they have sus-
tanned with this Minneapolis road
For some unknown reason the north
western transcontinental lines have re-
fused to make baslng rate for connect
ing. lines; that is, they have refused to
participate in the homeseekers' rates. The
Great Northern and the Northern Pacific
have refused to allow the sale of through
tickets by the lines connecting at St. Paul
or Minneapolis. To neutraliZe the effect
OF this action, the ST. Louis is the pioneer
line IN the field to make such a rate from
points on It's line that the homeseeker. nv
buying a ticket to Minneapolis and then
buying again over the merger lines at
Minneapolis, will secure the same rates
as though the lines had agreed to an ar
rangement for through tickets from the
starting point.
The land agents Of the two cities will
appreciate the individual action of the st.
Louis road because every effort is being
| made by the southwestern lines to draw
homeseekers to the southwest Texas and
other states. A bureau with $4,000 to
spend has been made up by the roads
and strenuous work is being done to turn
business the other way. This naturally
has its effect on the land business in the
| northwest The action of the Hill lines
in taking stand so oppose dto their
former attitude on the homeseekers' rates
| in every respect is not understood by rail-
road men. Whatever the motive NAV be-
the ST. Louis has taken a step which en-
ables the homeseekers on it's lines to get
| into the northwest. Ill

CUT OUT THE PARLoRs
Stuyvesant Fish's Recipe for Making Pas.
senaer Business Profitable

oSiSSt BUSINESS TEOuIdOiSs
President Stuyvesant Fishs remarks
Saturday night at the community Of
freight interests banquet in New York
finds an echo in the hearts of twin city
traffic men. Mr.. Fish, who is president Of
the Illinois Central, said that the pas
senger service or dress parade traffic
would be more profitable were there not
so many parlor cars on the through trains
of the great railroads.
A Minneapolis passenger agent said to-
day that Mr.. Fish was undoubtedly COR
rect in his structures on the parlor car
business. In this age the tendency, be-
cause of smart competition, is to overdue
the parlor car business, and to go to much
unnecessary expense owing to the desire
of each road to Guido the other in mag
nifcence of equipment. Said he: What s
the use of hauling parlor cars over the
road with only one or two passengers
aboard. They do not pay expenses. Some
times the company owns the cars, if they
belong to the Pullman company the charge
of two cents a, mile has to be paid wheth-
er the car is loaded or not"

do you know what President Cassett' 8
ambition is?" asked an old friend of the
head Of the Pennsylvania road. Mr.. Cas-
sett counts on thirteen more active years
before he shall call himself an old man.
His age to-day is "a. Thirteen more will
put him at 77-still young. He looks as
if he might live to be 100. I'm the next
thirteen years" says his friend, "Mr. Cas-
satt will put the Pennsylvania all through
New England, Long Island, New Jersey
and New York city. Not an ounce OF coal
will be burned between Philadelphia and
the more eastern points. The entire sys-
tenn will be electric. expect to see cleo
trio trains running between New York and
Philadelphia in 1906. We will have a six
track road, with speed of 100 miles an
hour. Experts have been at work more
than year testing the various methods
Of electric propulsion. It is possible that
automobiles may be used instead of the
trolley or the third rail, which are physi-
cally different but practically the same.

pen until the evening, which he finds to be
his best working time. He is in the happy
position of being able to write exactly
what he pleases, and never to order. He
never dictates his plays, nor will he allow
any one to come near him when he is
writing. AS for his ideas, they come to
him at all times and places, and are jotted
down on hundreds Of scraps of paper,
with which his pockets are stuffed. When
the play is ripe for writing he produces all
these countless literary fragments and
from them evolves one Of his delightful
and brilliant plays.
