NO CHANGE MADE.
Bulletin Announcing Change on North
western Is Cancelled.


A bulletin posted by the Chicago &
Northwestern several days ago. to be-
come effective Sunday. has been cam
celed and instead of there being
changes in the>f fast mail runs on Nos.
8 and 10. the crews will work the same
as heretofore. The bulletin was to the
effect that after Sunday the crews
would make the entire trip between
Clinton and Council Bluffs without
change. This would make run of
about 1000 miles month, and more
work than the men say they can do,
without actually wearing themselves
out in short time. The run from
Clinton TO Boone is 202 miles. and be-
tween Boone and the Bluffs 149 more.
Both of the runs are hard ones, and
have heretofore been handled by two
crews. one running from Clinton to
Boone and the other from Boone to the
Bluffs The cancellation of the order
is a source OF much satisfaction to the
trainmen, who did not want to make
such long trips. On the two night fast
mail trains the crews Yin the storage
cars handle between thirty and fifty
tons of mail.

There is comfort in the knowledge SO

swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls every wish in curing rheumatism
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary. passage.
II corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, VINE or

cessity of being compelled to go of'en
during the day, and to get up, many
times during the night. The mild and

SAYS YOUNG MAN MAY CALL
Father Who Caused Arrest of Ills
aughter and Her Beau Is
Worsted in Court.

According to decision of Judge
Cochran, of Wilmington, Del, il is no
crime for girl Of l6 years TO entertain
a beau in her home, even If her father
objects. Judge Cochran is young and
unmarried, by the way.
Sallie May Dillon is the young woman
who entertained a young man at her
home, although her fother had forbid
den her to have company" When the
young man left Dillon caused the arrest
OF his daughter and she confronted
Judge Cochran.
William ]. Dillon, her father, said
that the girl entertained her beau in
an orderly way, but against his objec-
tlons. Judge Cochran said he could find
no violation of law in such an act and
dismissed the young woman. William
Heal, the young man who had called on
her, was then charged with trespassing
in the Dillon household, but the judge
thought that he was invited into the
house and allowed him to go, too
