TERMINAL CHARGES UNJUST.
One of Three Important Decisions by
Commerce Commission.

Commerce Commission.
Washington. Nov. 4.-Three deci-
sions, all important both to cattle and
general business interests in the west
and south west, have been handed
down by the interstate commerce
commission. One in effect is that the
81 terminal charge for a car of cattle,
assessed by the railroads for deliveries
at the union stock yards of Chicago. is
unjust and unreasonable. In another
the commission holds that the adj
vances in rates on live stock, made by
the railroads in 1903, affecting rates
from all southwest and west cattle
points to Chicago. st. Louis and Kan
sas City, are unjust and unreasona BILE.
In the third no final order is made.
but the commission takes occasion to
express the belief that increases in
rates made by the railroads on freight
articles from ST. Louis and Missouri to
Texas points on and after March Is,
1903, are unreasonable and improper.
These decisions are pointed out as
definite illustrations of the necessity
for the legislation the president advo-
Gates for regulating railroad rates. One
of the cases decided, the union stock
yards case, dates back to 1894. It
went to the commission, from that
body to the United States supreme
court and from the supreme court
back to the commission. Now the
commission finds just as it did ten
years ago, that the terminal charge is
unjust.

FORTY DAYS Will BE ENOUGH
H. X. Goodrich settles Controversy
About Warner Company Bond.

The city council and the Warner
Electric Light company of Muncie
Ind, have patched up their differences
over the length of the bond which the
latter agreed to furnish the city as a
guarantee Of their lamps. The guar
antee is to cover all damage which
might result to the machinery by rea-
son of speeding it up in order to at
tach the Warner lamps of low amper-
age to the circuit. The bond is good
for forty days. Certain members CT
the council believed that it ought to
be made for two years. Superintend-
ent H. K. Goodrich, however. stated
that forty days would show up any de-
fects in the machinery and upon this
recommendation the bond will be ac-
copied.

GOEBEn VIII IS FILLED.
Had Property at Wichita and Titles
Required Clearing.

Wichita. Kan, Nov 4.-The will of
william Goebel. the slain governor of
Kentucky, was filed for record and ad-
mitted to probate here today. Cover
nor GOebel owned a half interest in
three lots on North Market street. In
1887 he and Hayden Kendall, a dis
filler of Lexington, KY, came here and
purchased the three lots for 81. 600 each.
This was only a few months before
the bursting of the boom, when the
value of their property slumped to
about one-tenth the amount they paid
for it. The will bequeaths everything
to Arthur Goebel.
Last summer the GoebeI estate sold
its interest in the Wichita property to
Hayden Kendall and the three lots were
sold today for $500. The viii was
filed here to clear the title of all de-

 Yes, as reaction from the cart-wheel headgear, the picture-hat, we are to have a reign of small roundish hats; as a reaction from the off-the-face ,tyle. we are to go to the extreme of placing the hat almost on the nose. It will entail very carefully dressed locks at the exposed back of the head and woe to Ter whose tresses are not l1xuriant.

HAS AN AUTOMATIC SWITCH
Iowa Mans Device of Great Impor- tance to Railway Men Exhibit
 ed in St. Louis.

St. Loius.-William R. Smith of Council Bluffs. la, is exhibiting in St. Louis the model of an automatic rail road switch, which was patented on January by Wintherlich, Lund- gard X Smith. The idea worked out by the three was conceived by Hans J. Wintherlich, Dane, now residing at Council Bluffs.
 The switch is thrown automatically by the flanges of the car wheels press ing upon an extra rail, about 30 feet in length, intended to be placed be- tween the other rails at points conven- tent to stations. When the train is standing one wheel of coach is bound to rest upon this rail, and it would be impossible for the switch to be thrown so that another train could come in on that track. The flanges of the wheels by the same method would throw signal showing that the partic. ular track is occupied.
 The invention so far is perfected for use only at stations. but Wintherlich has nearly completed the model of an improvement designed to make the in. vention applicable to the block sys tesn on every mile of railway.

Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics.

One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotic of any kind. Pe- runa is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquir- ing drug habit. Peruna does not pro duce temporary results. It is perma- nent in its effect.
 It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by re- moving the cause of catarrh. There are a multitude of homes where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty years. Such thing could not be possible if cotic nature.

Interfered With Her Social Duties and
 Threatened to Cause Her Retire
 ment-How She Was Cured.
 Every sufferer from nervous headache knows how completely it units one for the duties and pleasures of life. Any little excitement, or over-cxcrtion, or ir- regularity brings it on. Sometimes the pain is over the whole head. Again it is like a nail driven into the brain, or wedge splitting it open, or band tight. ening about it. At one time it is all in the top of the head, at another it is all at the base of the skull.
 Most headaches can be traced to some faulty state of the blood. When the blood is scanty or charged with poison, and the nerves are imperfectly nourished and the digestion weak, one of the com. monest results is frequent and severe headaches.
 The important thing Is to get rid of the diseased condition of the blood that causes the attack by the use of remedy that will do the work quickly and thoroughly. What is that remedy? The experience of Miss Ellen McKenna fur nishes the answer. She says:
 "For more than seven years I was a { great sufferer from nervous headache and dizziness. My stomach was disordered, and became SO restless that could not sit still any length of time. Dizziness interrupted my work greatly. At first the attacks were not so severe, but they gradually grew more violent, and finally became so acute that was on the point of relinquishing my membership in the different organizations to which I be. longed."
 What saved you from that necessity"
 "A very simple thing; the call of a member of one of the clabs who strongly advised me to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills before givingup. Iacted on her sugges- ton at once, and after steadily using this great blood and nerve remedy for two months, my headaches and my dizzi- ness entirely disappeared.
 Miss McKenna is secretary of the Associated Ladies' Guild, and resides at No. AS Wait street, Roxbury, Mass. Dr. Williams Pink Pills have cured many hundreds of similar cases, and can be confidently recommended to drive all poisons from the blood and to give needed strength to the nerves. Every druggist keeps them.

cepted. Last year the most common shirt-waist suit seemed the one of silk; th.s season, while silk will be much worn. there will be more of a variety. lightweight wools looming up strong Whilst many of these ankle-length frocks will be built on severe lines, there will be considerable latitude as to elaboration.
 To turn to afternoon dress, apart from the popular shirt-waist suit, we should like to speak of a gray broad cloth of very latest mode; it was made with skirt full about the hips, the fullness turned into a deep puff by cording lower down. Cording and puffs will be popular.
 Elbow sleeves are to be worn more than ever, and dressy coats have sleeves of this length finished with deep lace frills Gowns for both after noon and evening show elaborate el- bow sleeves as the most fashionable The real leg-of- mutton is equally pop ular for simple coats and waists; and point worth noticing, one can easily increase the shoulder puffiness of a leg-of mutton by gathering a piece of muslin. doubled into an inch or SC band and sewing this bit of stiffening into the sleeves just fin front of the shoulder. Another point worth notice is that with full skirt a blouse waist is not effective; a tight bodice for a full skirt.
 We must mention a charming linen gown we saw recently in the window of very exclusive little shop. It was sort of white. but not dead-white, leaned to creamy gray, if one can i'm agine it: it was made with a yoke of eyelet embroidery, and the puffed el- bow sleeves had deep frill of the same embroidery. Simple and elegant!

 The lady of fashion and the woman of business both court simplicity for the suit of service. and each shows her good taste in so doing Just here it may be in season to speak of the rain coat, which seems now to have reached the perfection of finish. A great deal of attention has been lavished upon this article of dress, and as a result it is more than utilitarian, though it is that to degree. The newest ones are made with strict reference to what is liked in sleeves, shoulder lines, long or short waist and therefore serve many a purpose other than indicated by the name raincoat. They make a good appearance in travel. for after noon occasions, and even in the even- ing are worn by women very careful in matters of dress. They certainly fill a long-felt want.
