In selecting a route to California the al
titude and climate OF the country trav-
ersed should naturally be given considera-
ton. The Rock Island system not only
has the shortest line to the Pacific Coast,
but also passes through a territory of the
lowest altitude and a most genial tenn
perature. Beginning Wednesday, and
every Wednesday thereafter, the Rock
island Ry will run tourist Car from
Minneapolis to Los Angeles without
change over the Rock-IslarH-El Paso
Route, leaving the Milwaukee Depot at
7:10 b. m The car will be Of the latest
Pullman design and up-to-date in every
respect, and you may be assured of a
most comfortable journey if you go this
way, a double berth through costs but six
dollars, and nicer way to California
can not be gone over. Information

Mr.. Pullen's statement was not
borne out by the Investigation by the
coroner's physician, O'Hanion, who
found powder marks on the dead wo-
mans face, showing that the pistol
must have been held very close.
DR.. Cyrus Edison, brother OF the
suicide, said tonight, that the intims-
tions of improper relations between
his brother and Mrs. Pullen were ao-
solntely false. His brother, he said,
had recently been acting very strange
ly and had admitted that he was in
volved in financial difficulties. His
family DR.. Edison said, had become
so alarmed over his mental condition
that arrangements has been made to
have him examined by an alienist.
The shooting, Dr.. Edison declared, was
undoubtedly committed in a moment
of maniacal fenzy.

RYDAL-E'S TONIC
q REAL CURE FOR

It has recently been discovered that
the germs that produce Malaria, breed
and multiply in the intestines and from
there spread throughout the system
by means of the blood This fact ex-
plains why Malaria is hard to cure by
the old method of treatment. Quinine,
Iron. ETC.: stimulate the nerves and
build up the blood, but do not destroy
the germs that cause the disease.
Rydale's Tonic has a specific effect
upon the intestines and bowels, freeing
them from all disease breeding mi
crobes. 1t also kills the germs that
infcst the veins and arteries. 1t drives
from the blood all poisonous matter
and makes it rich and healthy.
RYDALE'S TONIC is a blood
builder, nerve restorer, and Malaria
destroyer. Try it, it will not disap.

Nj. Rockefeller $ Money.

There are occasional signs of anxiety
for fear that Mr.. John d. Rockefeller
will get AL the money there is. Mr..
Rockefeller has not lately seen fit to
publish his estimate of the value Of
possessions, but sanguine guessers rate
him nowaday as pretty nearly bill
lionaire, and the most conservative
computers believe he has more than
half billion. 1t would be possible to
say what is the total wealth Of the
United States, but the assessed valu-
alton of the several States for 1902
amounted to about thirty-fve billions.
Even if Mr.. Rockefeller has a whole
billion, there is something left for the
rest cf us. But his fortune, they tell
US, is probably increasing by as much
as ifty million u year. and is not an
likely to double within tcp years. Al
ready his financial power is enormous,
SO that he could influence stock values
very materially if he chose, and, at
times. make or unmake ordinary mil
lionaires by mere whispers at the tel
cphonc. Malevolencc is not attribu-
ted to him, nor is he felt to be IA mis-
chief-maker, but the feeling is that
his business abilities are SO surprising,
and his business judgment so unap-
proachably sound, that he cant
help seeing and improving chances 70
make millions more. To discuss him
is as little of an impertinence as to dis.
cuss the comet. He is a force, 64
years old, moving through the earth 8
atmosphere, and believed to be rapidly
increasing in weight and velocity.
Persons who fear they are in his or
bit and may be pinched may fnd some
relief in considering that even though
his fortune increases very rapidly, it's
growth may long be fed by the increase
Of wealth in the country. If wealth
in general stops increasing, and Mr..
Rockefeller's wealth keeps on in
creasing, then the pinch may be felt.
