Many farmers in the Northern and
Eastern states are selling their high
priced lands and locating in the South

and Texas. Many who have been
unable to own their homes in the older
country ale buying land at the low
prices prevailing in the new country-$5,
$40, $l5 per acre and up These lands
are mostly cut.over timber lands, some
of them possessing deep rich soil
producing corn, wheat, oats, clover,
cotton, fruits and vegetables. Well
improved farms are scattered through
out this country. Many places with
small clearing and some improvements
can be bought very cheap. Our

idea OF this country. 1t tells about the
soil, crops, climate, people, schools and
churches, water. health. 1t contains
maps showing location of counties,
towns, railways and streams, and gives
names and addresses OF real estate
dealers in the towns.

STOPPED A STRAY BULLET
Son of Police Captain Peter Reynolds
of st. Louis, Killed in Chicago.
He Received Bullet In the Mouth
Intended For Burglar and
II Proved Fatal.

Chicago Nov 29.-Killed in the
burglars, and deserted by messenger
boy friend, appears to have been the
fate of 17-year-old George Reynolds
son of Capt. Peter Reynolds, OF the St
louis police department. Young Rey-
holds was found, Saturday morning, in
an unconscious condition in Van Buren,
street. near Franklin, and died as he
was being taken to the Samaritan hos
pital.
The story of the shooting is told by
John Wheels, proprietor of a photo
graphic establishment at 1872 Van Buren,
street. Wheels claims to have been
aroused from sleep by the noise Of
someone tampering with the showcase
in front of his establishment He sur
prised three men at work on the show
case, and ordered them to throw up
their hands. The men ran across the
street, and Wheels fired several shots
at them. Reynolds and a messenger
boy were walking at some distance
west on Van Buren, street at the time
One OF the bullets struck Reynolds In
the mouth, and he fell to the walk. The
messenger boy dragged Reynolds two
blocks, and there gave way to fright,
leaving Reynolds on the street uncon-
scious. Until informed by the police,
apparently was unaware that
the bullets had found a mark

Berlin, Nov. 29.-Emperor William
has withdrawn his offer of cup for s
transatlantic race in 1904, on account
of his health. and has substituted for
it the offer of cup to be raced for in
1905
The emperor, through his representa-
i've, cabled his decision to the Amer
lean yachtsmen, with his reasons for
the postponement. These are that the
prolonged period of the emperor's re-
covery and the consequent accumula-
ton of all business has prevented him
from receiving his yacht advisers to ar
range the details for a transatlantic
race until it was too late for the de-
signers and builders to have new
yachts ready for a contest in the spring
of 1904.
The emperor, it is said, greatly re-
grets that delay of several weeks has
been caused by his indisposition, and
resulting inability to discuss the par
ticulars of the race. He desires to re-
new his proposal in detailed form early
in the fall of 1904, in time to build and
try new boats. The emperor hopes this
suspension of his offer will have the
approval of the Atlantic Yacht club and
the New York yacht club. He was not
that this information should
be made public. His advisers especially
desire that it be clearly understood that
the emperor's illness and consequent
restraints imposed by his physicians
alone occasioned the postponement

ALL-CANADIAN ROUTE FUTILE.
Sir William Van Hornes Views on Grain
Transportation.
rRY rEIEGrArH TO THE TRIBUNE J


Toronto Aug. 6.-"There is altogether too much
talk of an aIl-Canadan route by people who are
entirely ignorant Of the situation, said Sir Will
lam Van Horne. chairman Of the Canadian Pa
cific Railroad board of directors, in discussing the
Grand Trunk Pacific to-day. THAT prospect
would not solve the transportation question of
the West. The bulk of the wheat en- route TO the
seaboard would continue TO 90 by the lakes TO
Georgian Bay ports, then east by rail or by Buff
fao and the Erie Canal. The long haul around the
Great Lakes is as much dreaded as it is unproft-
able
Never will grain of the Canadian West be
hauled to the Atlantic seaboard voluntarily by any
Canadian railway by rail route alone No railway
viii do it unless forced to do No all-rail
route, unless forced by strenuous conditions eX
pcitly understood can afford to despise or to dis
pense with the water route provided by the Great
Lakes"
