FOLLOWS UP THE FIGHT.
Gov. La Toilette Wants to See Re-
corda of Chicago 6 Northwestern.

Governor La Toilette of Wisconsin is
trying to learn if the railroads having
lines in that state have been violating
the law in issuing free transportation to
public officials. In the name of the
governor a demand has been made upon
the Chicago & Northwestern railway for
an examination of the company's rec
ords of free transportation issued during
1903 and 1904.
The matter is in the hands of the legal
department Of the company, and it has
not been determined whether the de-
mand will be acceded to. 1t was said.
however, that the company had nothing
to fear from such an examination.
There is a law in Wisconsin which
prohibits railroads from granting free
transportation to any state official and
prohibits such officials from accepting
transportation. Governor La Toilette is
making a fight against the railroads
with a view of compelling them to pay
more taxes, and it is thought by the
railway men that his present move is
aimed against certain state officials
who may not have supported him in his
taxation fight.

Russian Railways Are Always
in Financial Arrears.
Can't Make Trans-Siberian Road

Record of Killed and Injured
ON Russian Roads.

Russia has from the first of her rail-
way history pursued a policy of deficit
fnanciering. From 1860 to 1870. Russian
railway deficits aggregated about 4, 000,-
900 rubles, or approximately one-half of
that number of dollars. The deficit for
1904 has been estimated at $4,000 900
rubles. The greater part of this deficit
is due to the Siberian railway, which
does not pay interest. and in some Sec
tons not even expenses.
At a recent meeting of a. commission
appointed to consider the question of
raising the freights on kerosene on the
Vladikavkaz and Transcaucasian rail-
ways. the president. NJ. Ziegler Won
Schaufhausen. director of the railway
department, made statements ilIustrat-
ing the necessity in certain cases of an
increase in the freights. The govern
ment railways, he declares, are working
at a loss. In a special case of the Tran
caucasian Government railway, the car
r1age of load of one pood for the dis
tance of a verSt costs on the average of
1.50 kopeks, while the freight paid
amounts to only LBS kopeks. If the in
tereSt on the money spent on construc-
ton be taken into account, it will be
evident that the line under the present
tariff is working at a loss. With
traffic in kerosene amounting annually
to 100000 pools, every extra kopek
in the tariff means for the treasury a
difference of 100000 rubles. The owners
of naphtha wells in the Caucasus are
vigorously combating the proposal to
raise the freights. and urge as one rea-
son for maintaining the present order
OF things the fact that the appearance
m England Of kerosene from Texas is
increasing the strain of competition.
The Russian ministry of ways and
communications reports that the num-
Der of accidents on Russian railroads
was $500 during the year 1902. There
were 1,o12 collisions of trains and ], 521
cases of derailment. The damage to
the government amounted to $500, 900.

SHAVED COAL OIL JOHNNY.
Long and Honorable Career of an
Atchison Barber.

John Hitler, the barber on Third
street. has run a barber shop in the
same block in which he is now located
twenty-five years. He has been con-
tinuously in the business in Atchison
longer than any other local barber. Mr..
Hitler has several customers who have
been with him upward Of twenty years,
Sam McCracken being one of them. Mr.
Hitler was a barber in Oil City, Penn
sylvania, a great many years ago, when
Coal OIL Johnny was at his worst.
When he shaved Coal Oil Johnny, ne
often got five dollars for it. But the
interesting thing about Mr.. Hitler, is
the fact that he tells the truth about
hair growers. He says he has spent
many years studying the bald head
question, in connection with remedies
for making hair grow, and says, with
out hesitation or reservation, that the
hair grower is a delusion and a snare.
Mr.. Hitler has no hair restorers for
sale in his shop, and when anxious
customers advise with him profession
ally in regard to the great problem, he
does not beat around the bush, and
give rise to vain hopes, but comes out
with the plain facts He does it kindly,
and in the spirit of sympathy and coll-
dolence but he tells the truth: nothing
will make hair grow on a bald head

Feb.-means Freeze every body, and
that man looked frozen in his ulster. It
was apparent that he needed the kind
of warmth that stays, the warmth that
reaches from head to foot, all over the
body. We could have told him from
personal knowledge that Hoods Sarsa-
parilla gives permanent warmth, it in
vigorates the blood and speeds it along

The mucous membrane is to the in

outside of the body. 1t lines every or
gan. duct and cavity. Catarrhal infiam-
nation attacking one part is liable to
spread to other parts. A neglected cold
or light catarrh is often the cause of
lingering and dangerous catarrh.
Women are naturally more susceptible
to inclemencies Of the weather than
men, With them a cold Is often the
starting point of some severe pelvic de-
rangement, causing much pain and suf-
fering.
Every woman needs a remedy upon
which she can rely to keep her system
fortified against the severe and trying

the first symptom of cold it will cure
1t before it develops into some annoying
catarrhal arrangement
Even after catarrh has been acquired
Peruna cures 1t permanently and

FRISCO IS IN IT.
Fixing for New Line Into Galveston
via Beaumont,

Galveston, Tex, Feb. 27.-From a re-
liable source 1t is learned that the
Frisco is backing the proposed line
through east Texas from Lufkin to
Beaumont and thence via the Gulf and
Interstate to Galveston. President
Yoakum spent two days in Galveston,
Houston and east Texas, and stated
that something would be given out
later. The route surveyed parallels the
Dallas-Beaumont division of the South
ern Pacific, which the Rock Island. ac-
quired, but which the Texas railroad
commission refused to confirm because
the Rock Island had bought the Hous-
ton and Texas Central, a competitive
road. Now the Frisco will build the
Lufkin- Galveston road which will pass
through Sour Lake, Saratoga and other
oil fields, penetrate the rice, lumber
and fruit sections of east Texas and
give the Frisco an outlet to Galveston
from east Texas, and at Lufkin con-
meet with the Houston East and West
Texas, a Rock Island proposition. The
Kirby lumber company, in which the
Frisco is interested, owns vast timber
lands in this region. The Frisco will
have another entrance into Galveston
from the west for the St. Louis,
Brownsville and Mexico road, now
building, and over the Galveston Hous-
ton line the Rock Island and Frisco
will reach the port of Galveston.
