PREPARING FOR FLOODS.
Santa Fe Riprapping Road Along
Missouri River.

An effort is to be made by the Atchson,
to its roadbed in Wyandotte county by the
current of the Missouri river. Work was
commenced yesterday by ST. Louis con-
road which is near the river. This
stretch is located just outside of Courtney,
to the northeast of Kansas City. 1t will
probably take q couple of months to COM
plete the job and when it is finished the
company thinks its tracks will be protect
ed against any possible damages from the
stream. The growth of traffic east of
Kansas City has rendered it especially inn
perative that the track be put in such

Every
Heart=AChe

Every pain in the breast, diff
fcult breathing, palpitation,
futtering or dizzy spell means
that your heart is straining it
self in its effort to keep in
motion. This is dangerous.
Some sudden strain from over
exertion or excitement will
completely exhaust the nerves,
or rupture the walls or arteries
of the heart, and it will stop.
Relieve this terrible strain at
once with DR.. Miles Heart
Cure. It invigorates and
strengthens the heart nerves
and muscles, stimulates the
heart action, and relieves the
pain and misery.

heart strong and vigorous with

WORK ON NEW ROAD STARTED
Grading Contracts on Columbia River
Line Let by Northern Pacific.

Tacoma, WASH, Sept. 27.-Third
Vice President Levy, of the Northern
Pacific, says the work of constructing
the new road along the Columbia
river from Kennewick to Vancouver,
Wash, has already been started in a
small way and that the contract for
grading has been awarded to a st.
Paul firm.
At Cape Horn there will be required
the building of a tunnel 1000 feet
long and a good deal of the grading
will involve much rock work.
To complete the extension two large
bridges will have to be built. One will
probably be built across the Columbia
at Vancouver and another to enter
Portland, across the Willamette. The
road will probably be completed in
about fifteen months.

TO JOIN SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
Proposed Road in Southern Mexico
VIII Cost Lots of Money.

Washington, Sept. 27.-Consul Nor
awetz, stationed at Nogales, Mexico,
reports as follows in regard to the
concession recently granted for a
railway from Alamos to Guadalajara !:
THE length of this road is 745 miles,
and it must be completed within seven
years. Four hundred kilometers GAS
miles1 must be built and in operation
within two years.
From Guadalajara the line will run
in northwesterly direction, crossing
the Sierra Madre east of the port of
San Bias, thence northerly to Mazat-
Ian, CuIiacan and Alamos. At the lat
ter city connection will be made with
the Cananea, Yaqui River and Pacific
railway, which is now being built from
Guaymas to Alamos. From Guaymas
the Sonora railway is in operation,
crossing the International line at
NogaIes and connecting with the main
line of the Southern Pacific company
at Benson. Ariz.
lowing to the engineering difficult
ties in crossing the Sierra Madre, it
will be very expensive to build por-
tions of the road, and its total cost is
estimated at approximately $25, ,000,-
600. The Mexican government has
granted the company subsidy of
1880 Mexican pesos per kilometer.

MANY TUNNELS TO NEW YORK.

Question of Air an Important One in
Their Construction.
Fourteen submarine tunnels are now
under construction or under contract
York, with New Jersey on the west or
Long Island on the east, says the En-
gineering News. The latest tunnels to
be placed under contract are the two
tunnels of the New York & Long
Island railroad to run from Third
avenue and Forty-second street, New
York city, to a connection with the
surface electric roads on Long Island.
At the Manhattan terminus a large
subterranean station will be excavated,
about eighty feet below the level of
the Manhattan subway lines. The
great air capacity required in present
day submarine tunnel work is well
illustrated by contract just closed for
air-compressors. Fourteen air-com-
pressors of two different types have
been ordered. Eight are of duplex
compound class "HC" pattern, with
steam cylinders 16 and 23 inches in
inches in diameter, and a stroke of Is
inches. Each unit has a free-air ca
pacity of 1905 cubic feet per minute.
The other six are of straight line class
"A'' type, with a 24-inch steam cylin-
der, 26 u inch air cylinder and a
stroke of 80 inches. The capacity of
each is 1,444 cubic feet per minute.
The aggregate free air capacity of the
fourteen comnressors is 18,304 cubic
feet per minute.
The shield method viii be used in
driving these tunnels. The straight
line compressors will furnish air to the
headings for keeping out the water,
and will also supply intake air to the
other machines. The compound units,

making determined protest to the

to have become so great that it is al
most impossible to receive or deliver

A law passed recently by the state of
Indiana, and effective now, cuts down
the charges on excess baggage. The
Wabash railroad has filed tariff in
compliance with this law, but the
Pennsylvania lines, Baltimore & Ohio,
and other roads which pass through
the state, are reported as awaiting de-
velopments. and suits to test the leg
islation may be the outcome of the
law.
The new law provides for rate not
to exceed u per cent of the first-class
fare for 100 pounds of excess baggage,
with minimum charge of 25 cents for
baggage not exceeding 200 pounds in
weight. 1t has been found that the law
has reduced the rate that can be charg-
ed for excess baggage for short hauls
to from 1 to 16 cents per 100 pounds,
instead of uniform Is cent rate. For
instance, the charge under the new
law is cents per 100 pounds where the
ticket is between % and 80 cents. Not
until the ticket rate is 1.33 can the old
rate be charged.

February is Il month of severe storms
and intense cold.
Even in the South where the prevail
ing temperature is much above wintry
latitudes, February brings sudden
changes of temperature.
Mercury sometimes drops 90 degrees
in a single night.
Therefore, the following health hints
are applicable to the whole of North
America:
Ventilation.
The sleeping rooms should be well
ventilated. but SO as to avoid direct
currents of air.
Bathing.
Those in vigorous health should take
cold water towel bath every morning
before breakfast. Those in feeble
health should take brisk dry-towel-
rub every morning.
Diet.
The diet should be n generous one.
including meat, and occasionally fresh
vegetables.
Sunshine.
The nights being long and the days
short, as much sunshine as possible
should DC let into the house during
the day.
CioihjGg.
The head should be kept cool at all
times. The feet should DC kept warm
and dry, day and night.
R.rG-ns.
When unavoidably exposed to cold or
wet, n few doses of Peruna will avert
bad consequences.
Precaution.
When seized with chill. or even
slight cEilliness, a dose Of Pcruua
should be taken at once.

QUEEN BEES WORTH 5000 EACH
Come Of tho Italian Insects Are Ex.

Just as there are valuable strains
n horses, cattle and other stocks, so
there are varieties OF queen bees
which are worth many hundred times
their weight in gold. The most valu.
able strain, says the New York

ian bee farmers demand and receive
without question prices ranging from
$50 to 5000 for a single queen bee of a
certain kind. Such bees are sent all

The owner OF bee farm near OF
lava, Can, goes to Europe annually
and brings back with him bees of an

insurance upon the most valuable o.
his queens.
This bee farmer has many strange
experiences in connection with the
assistants he is obliged to engage. OF
course all bee keepers must submit to
certain amount OF singing. But
III some cases the poison in the sting
acts directly upon the assistants and
makes them alarmingly i'll. Others
are immune, though atung hundreds OF
lines.
Bee farmers are often applied to by
persons suffering from rheumatism
who wish to place themselves in the
way of being stung. And, strange as
1t may seem, the virus of the bee sting
does often act as q cure to persons
suffering from serious attacks OF rheu.
