THE jokes OF OUR RULERS.

When the president was in Kansas
Secretary Root received a request from
the people of Quincy ILL.,, that the mon
itor Arkansas stop at that town on it's
way down from the exposition cere-
monies. Mr.. Root handed the tele-
gram to the president, who repeated it
to Secretary Moody in Washington,
adding: Root says he has no monitor
named Arkansas, but thinks you have
one in your department. If not, he
suggests that you try the postmaster
general" and the president added in
city on the Mississippi where it could
find navigable water, because he want
ed the public to see one of the modern
floating fortresses. The monitor went
aground through the falling Of the
waters of the Mississippi. In the mean
time Secretary Root left the presi-
dents part and returned to Washington
while Secretary Moody Joined the pre-
sident, and on May IL the president
sent a telegram to the secretary of
war, saying: MOODY reports that the
monitor Arkansas has run aground in
the Mississippi, and is likely to be laid
up there indefinitely in consequence of
your recommendations. He asks that
the army of the United States be called
out to get her aaoat and to tow, pole or
carry her to deep water."-New York

WILL DELAY NEW wARsHIPs.
Gun Foundations Must Be Built
Stronger Than Before.

" III II OhllNtlllOllo MUST DE DUH
Stronger Than Before.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July Delay
in completion of most of the battle
ships and cruisers now under construc-
ton, it. is believed will result from the
necessity of greatly strengthening the
foundations of the turrets and the
fastenings of the big guns. These
changes were decided on because of the
weaknesses developed in the battleship
Maine.
The lesson learned from the Maine
was that the muZzle velocity of the
new guns had been increased out of
proportion to the foundations, and the
board of construction decided to rem
edy this defect in all the ships now
building regardless of loss of time in
volved.
Because of these changes the COM
missioning of the Missouri, which is to
be commanded by Captain William S.
Cowles, the Presidents brother-in-law,
will be delayed until about Thanksgiv-
ing day.

Rate Withdrawn

Acting upon information received
from Las Vegas, General Passenger
Agent Jerry Black, of Topeka, has
withdrawn the offer of a 81 rate, given
on condition that $50 citizens should
pledge themselves to go to Santa Fe
to the presidents reception. Inc with
drawing of the rate seems to be prema-
ture. There seems to be little doubt
but as many people as required would
take advantage of the reduced rate,
but it is not easy to get that number
of people to pledge themselves before
hand. Probably the Santa Fe will re-
consider the matter if the required
number of names are pledged. Other
wise the rate Of $685. for the round
trip will be given.-Las Vegas Optic.

Fe Pacific lines. The aggregate is
about 1876, 900 barrels q month, and the
proposed addition Of the company's
Winslow division will increase the
consumption to an additional $4,000
barrels a month. When the new ter.
ritory is added the lines of the entire
Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railroad
will be provided with o%il-burning ia
~cilities.
When existing contracts mature the
Santa Fe will produce sufficient oil
from its W field to supply its entire
consumption. This can be done at any
time. Fuel oil now used on the Santa
Fe Pacific is supplied by contract
made for a term of years some time
ago. This arrangement will not expire
for three years yet.

Danger Of Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip Is their resulting in pneumonia.
II reasonable care is used, however,
and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
taken, all danger will be avoided,
Among the tens of thousands who have
used this remedy for these diseases we
have yet to learn of a single case re-
sulting in pneumonia, which shows
conclusively that it is a certain pre-
tentative of that dangerous disease.

She says: One day | was attracted

neighbor who told me that it was Pos

did not quit coffee and use Postum to
see If it would not benefit my health.
Il made the change recommended
and in a few days my headaches dis
appeared, stomach got better and
began to get well. That was about
nine months ago.

Friends, read the Elkins bill and lead
us not into temptation" People who
have read the daily papers regularly
know that the Elkins' bill is a new law
that prohibits railroads from giving
out passes promiscuously. 1t might be
said on the side that the authors and
promoters of the law were theree well
known railroad men of this country,
two from the Santa Fe and one from

morning. 1t was expected that the
bridge will be repaired by tonight and
that the train will come in on time and
make the regular trip tomorrow. The
train came down az far as Espanola
last night and went north from there
this morning. 1t is not known how
the fire originated.

THEIR LAST DEMAND.
Alton Trainmen Confer With Santa
Fe and Rock Island Employees.

Fe and Rock Island Employees.
The trainmen of the Chicago &
Alton have just filed their ultimatum
with the officials of the road concern
ing the rate of pay and are now await
ing their reply, says a dispatch from
Bloomington, Ill.
The officials were notified that the
scale of Is per cent increase for freight
men and IL per cent for passenger, in
addition to other provisions in a new
schedule, must be allowed or there
would be no further parleying. The
conference has just concluded. There
was also a joint conference of Alton,
Rock Island, Wabash, Santa Fe and
Illinois Central trainmen. The Santa
Fe has accepted the above scale and
the Rock Island is said to be willing,
but wished to postpone matters until
after President Roosevelt completes
his tour of that system. The postpone.
ment was granted. The Alton employees
have taken the initiative in the de-
mand following the joint conference
and insist upon an early reply. The
officials have taken the proposed ad-
