Under the caption, The Union Pa
cif1c Railroad and Louisiana Terri
tory" the new Worlds Fair folder is
sued by the advertising department of
the Union Pacific, which has attracted
such general attention, recites these
interesting facts:
While the construction OF the
Union Pacific Railroad. it's trials and
triumphs, are a part of the history of
the United States, the important part
played by this railroad in the develop
ment of the Louisiana Purchase can
hardly be estimated. In the building
up of this vast domain it has been one
of the chief factors.
One hundred years ago the popula-
ton of the region was estimated at
10000. UP to the inception of the
Union Pacific Gin 1900 it had in
creased to 1888 ,529. In 1900 it num-
bered over 100000 of inhabitants.
In this wonderful growth, with its stu
pendous increase in all the many-sided
phases of commercial, material and
intellectual prosperity. the Union Pa
cific-as a glance at the map will
show-has had a conspicuous share.
1t has opened vast regions of fertile
country to settlers, and brought great
areas of an unknown and unproduc-
tive wilderness into close communion
with metropolitan centers and mar
kets. Thriving cities, towns and ham,
lets, through it's efforts, have sprung
up in every direction.
1t may be of interest to know that
the total number of manufacturing
plants, and the value of their outputs,
com bined with that of the national
products as reported in the census OF
1900, give an aggregate production for
the Louisiana region of SO, SOC, 900 900
annually, or 223 times the original pur
chase price. The same census reports
f1900) also show the total population
to be 13.343, 255, of which {, 303,0 in
habitants are living in the states and
territories reached by. the Union Pa
eific. On the 1900 census figures, it Is
estimated that the true wealth of the
Louisiana purchase can be stated at
about $13.051 ,ssS, 359. of which 50 $780,
621 1877 is represented fE the states
reached by this great railroad"

nington found himself outside the
closed door.
1t would never do to make a scene
on the front steps. Bennington was
determined to get at the bottom of the
mystery, but this was not the place.
He jumped into the cab again and was
driven around to Mrs. Graves, who
had been his mentor since his
mothers death.
I'm sure 1 don't know what the
matter is. Jack" she said sympathet-
ically. There is a report around that
Lucy would not have you, and that
you took a broken heart out of sight
until it mended again."
How can 1 find out" he urged. "I
can't go along like this. 1t will drive
me crazy"
Come to the tab1eaux wants to-
night" said the matron. Lucy will
be taking part and we will try to see
her" -.--.--.-...--
1t was hard upon Bennington to face
the curious gaze that evening at the
charity entertainment. 1t seemed to
him as though every one in the room
were discussing him.
Still, he bore it bravely, sustained
by the hope of seeing Lucy She was
to appear in the last picture, and the
program line read:
Reflections, Miss Alton, Miss Car
ter"
Miss Carter. That must be Mabel
Carter. Lucy's cousin from the west
When the curtain went up, there was
10 sign of Miss Carter. 1t merely
disclosed Lucy standing in front of a
| mirror admiring her reflection Then.
suddenly. the reflection stepped
through the mirror frame and a great
light dawned upon Bennington. He re-
membered now that Miss Carter was
supposed to exactly resemble Lucy.
The resemblance must have been so
strong as to have deceived even the
eyes of love.
Needless of Mrs. Gray's OBTAINING
hand, he pushed his way through the
crowd to the door leading to the inn
provised stage Lucy was just com
| ing down the steps from the tenn
porary platform He caught her wrist
Lucy" he cried. "can you ever Tor.

to stay and see you again. II you will
forgive the error I promise never to

Are you sure you will never make
| the same mistake again.
st assure you that it will not happen
again." he declared eagerly.
He sought to take her in his arms
but she skllfully evaded him, and a
voice from the platform cried out:
