improvements on the Rochester B. B

The new bridge at the mouth OF Stony
brook in Stockbridge is now practically
completed. The cost has been somewhat
in excess Of the first figures, as aboat
Il, 900 has been invested in the bridge and
its foundations and approaches, but ii is
a substantial structure with which the Off
cials OF the road are well pleased. Fifteen
thousand dollars has been appropriated
for strengthening the road, ditching and
ballasting between Gaysville and Roches-
ter, and about forty Italians are now en-
gagged on the work under the charge OF r.
P. Jose. The attention of the company is
now occupied in putting the road bed in
tirst-class condition and it is not probable
that any move towards better connections
with the G. v. Ry. at Bethel or a depot
here will be made this season, though ii is
expected that covering will be placed
over the platform at the Bethel end.

REVIVAL OF RIVER SERVICE
70 Start Line of River Barges Between
Kansas City And st. Louis.

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct 10.-Kansas
City may have speedy relief from the
congestion produced by the inability of
the railroads to handle freight traffic
and at the same time shippers will he
provided with a weapon by which to
compel the railroads to give reasonable
freight charges.
The proposed remedy is in revival
of river service for the transportation
of freight. A definite proposition has
been to start Il line of river barges to
operate between Kansas City and st.
Louis. The persons proposing to oper-
ate the river service have made writ
ten proposition which will be formally
considered at a meeting of the trans
portation bureau to be held soon. If
the proposition finds favor with the
transportation bureau the matter will
be referred to the commercial club for
action in the direction of encourage
ment of the project.
It is contcnded that line of river
barges operated as it is proposed in the
proposition already submitted lis en-
tirely feasible Each barge can carry
200 tons of freight and an ordinary
tow boat built on the style of the river
steamer moline" can tow four of these
barges. These boats can run in thirty

Still Another Case.

Franksville, Wis, Oct 12th.-Many
remarkable cures are being reported
from all over the country but there
is one right here in Franksville which
is certainly worth publishing, and
which has not as yet been given to
the public.
Mrs. Louis Markison of this place
had been sick woman for quite a
long time and could not find anything
TO give her any help. She suffered all
the painful symptoms of what is gen.
orally known as female weakness.
Every woman who reads her story
will understand these distressing con-
ditions which combine to make the
lives of many women one long bur
den of weakness and suffering.
Mrs. Markison CHANGED one day to
hear of a new remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, that was said to be
splendid medicine for women's weak
ness. She determined to try some
and soon found herself getting better.
She kept on with the pills and was
cured. Speaking of her case, Mrs.
Markison says
81 can and do praise Dodd's Kidney
Pills as remedy for female weakness.
They are the best medicine l have
ever known, and have done me a

SWEEPING ORDER ISSUED.
1t Forbids Boycotting, Picketing Or In
tImidat ion.

Hamilton, O., Oct. 12.-The Repu5-
licau Publishing company of this town,
which conducts an extensive job print
ing business and publishes daily
newspaper, has secured sweeping
order of injunction from Judge Belden
against Hamilton Typographical Un-
ion No. .993, the Hamilton Cooperative
Trades and Labor Council, the Nom
pariel Printing Company and the in
dividual members of each. In addition
it brought action for $50, 600 damages
against the individual members OF
these bodies.
The complaint sets up the fact that
the plaintiff has no dispute whatever
with its employees, but solely because
the company refuses to discharge all
non-union men and cease to run an
open shop the defendants have de-
clared Il boycott upon it. 1t is further
alleged that the union, failing to ac-
complisll it's end, declared boycott
upon the firms that are advertising in
the Republican or patronizing the job
department of the company.
The sweeping order of injunction
granted by Judge Belden, not only
forbids any further boycotting, pick
citing or intimidation of the plaintiff or
its employees, but extends the same
protection to all of its patrons. This
checks Il plan of the union men to
picket the leading stores of the city.

ORIGIN.
Of a Famous Human Food.

VI FAMOUS 6umGn FOOo.
The Story of great discoveries or in
ventions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack of bodily
strength and vigor and could not
carry out the plans and enterprises
he knew how to conduct was led to
study various foods and their effects
upon the human system. In other
words before he could carry out his
plans he had to find food that would
carry him along and renew his physi-
cal and mental strength.
He knew that food that was
brain and nerve builder, (rather than
mere fat maker), was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results. He knew that the
soft gray substance in brain and
nerve centers is made from Albumen
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve
the problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famous
food. Grape-Nuts contain the brain
and nerve building food elements in
condition for easy digestion. The re-
suit of eating Grape-Nuts daily is
easily seen in marked sturdiness
and activity of the brain and nervous
system, making it pleasure for one
to carry on the daily duties without
fatigue or exhaustion. The food Is
In no sense a stimulant but is simpIv
food which renews and replaces the
daily waste of brain and nerves.
Its flavor is charming and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory it is served instantly with
cream.
The signature of the brain worker
spoken of, C. W. Post, is to be seen
on each genuine package of Grape
Nuts.
Look in each package for q copy of
the famous little book, The Road to
MELVILLE"
