A HANDcAR EXPRESS.

The light, bicyce-like American handcar has
facilitated travel in the Far East and the Russian
engineers in Manchuria have been enabled to create
an express service all their own. Every mile OF the
track being guarded by the soldiers a start can be
made with two muscular Cossacks and when these
are wearied out thew may be dropped one by one as
others are picked up. The speed OF these handcars
Is greater than that made by any locomotive in
Siberia, for the reason that, the tracks being still
new. the heavy moguls play havoc when going at
full speed. while the gilt American handcars skim
over the rails and need no fuel II takes two days
TO go by train from Port Arthur TO Moukden, dis
lance of some six hundred miles. while the relay
handcar can be forced TO make the trip in half that
time. 1t would be possible. in fact, to travel six
thousand miles across Siberia and Russia by hand
GER at greater speed than that accomplished by
regular trains. every two-thirds of a mile man
at the handebars could be dropped and a fresh
worker ordered aboard.-(London Chronicle.

County Auditor A. F. Greenwaldt
has received an offer from the Ger
man Savings Bank, of Manning, of
the assistant cashiership and will like
ly accept. His term as auditor ex-
pires the first Monday in January, or
two weeks from next Monday. The
German Savings is the bauk formerly
owned by the BENEFITS, but is now
owned principally by Hon. A. Boysen
and F. M. Deet, the former being pres
ident. We believe Mr.. Greenwaldt
will be a success as bank man, as
he is surely qualified for that work
He is gaod accountant, a good pen
man, has good business judgment and
is agreeable to tho public. Being IA
miliar with the German language will
also help him in Manning. We wish
he could have remained in this coun-
ty, but congratulate him on securing
so good a position. He will likely go
soon after the first of the year.

in the lecture room in the rear. Mrs.
Watts neatly introduced the speaker.
Gillian came on the platform in a
a manner calculated to create mirth.
With solemn visage he gave his story
and the audience appreciated it thor
oughly. Through it all crept a vein
of humOr that every little while caused
outbursts of laughter. There were
also some very artistic touches OF
pathOs which recalled Riley or Flu.
gene Field. Gillian is the author OF
many verses which mix humor and
pathos. Of course he gave several OF
these. The lecture was made up Of
parts thrown together. 1t did not
pretend to be a Systematically con

tainment Of good and funny things

UNION URGED
FOR MINISTERS
SIOUX CITY ASSOCIATION CON-
SIDERS "A NOVEL STEP.
Organization Proposed Not Necessar-
lily for Higher Wages, but to Affili-
ate with Labor Unions and Work
for Reforms-Labor Leader to Adj
dress the Ministerial Association.
Special to The Journal.

Sioux City, Iowa, Feb. 23-The Sioux
City Ministerial association may be con-
verified into a labor union. The proposition
of sending a delegate to the Sioux City
Trade and Labor assembly was discussed
yesterday at the meeting OF the ministers.
Rev. Frank III. Shedd Of the Third Pres
byterian church declared preachers worked
as hard as other persons and they ought
to have a union. He did not have in mind
the matter Of striking for higher wages,
but he believed the ministers and the la
boring people would be benefited in many
ways by the ministers being affiliated
with the labor unions He said combi-
nation of the ministers and unions would
prove strong agency for combating evil.
A labor leader is to be asked to adj
dress the ministers upon the subject.
