Inter American Railway.

The idea that the three Americas will
some day be linked by an inter American
railway is becoming more plausible every
year. Such a civiazing chain would do
more than anything else to put an end
to the internecine strife among the South
American republics, and to develop the
industrial wealth and commercial prosper
ity of Central and South America. The
next step would be the introduction of
golden grain belt beer, which next to a
railroad. is most necessary to the peace
and healthfulness of men and women

men in particular, Negahnquet completed
his studies at Sacred Heart, and al their
expense, and ives then admitted TO the
Indian school at Carlisle, Pa. Afterward
he was transferred TO the Catholic uni
