NoNooENARIAN NEWsMAN.
Aged Illinoisan a Familiar Figure About Railroad Depots
 at Joliet.

The oldest newsboy in the world is to be found at Joliet, and he is a very familiar figure to passengers at the railroad depots. says the Chicago Chronicle. He Is Orsamus Page and he was born in 1909 Although approach ing his ninety-seyenth year, he is never missing from his post and is always ready to supply the public with his stock of newspapers. He maintains his vigor to a remarkable extent, as he rises at four o'clock every morning in order to meet the early trains. He is also engaged until late in the evening. He has been handicapped by the loss of a leg. losing the member al the knee in a mine accident at Braidwood 20 years ago. ..s
 His father was noted for longevity, his father dying at s9.- his mother at 9s. while his grandfather lived to be 1O2 and his grandmother 105. orasmus commenced life as a farmer in Iowa. moving there with his parents from New York state. He then engaged in railroad contracting and had charge of some of the grading for the Chicago & Alton. near Bloomington, in 1857. Mir. Page has a wife. who is s6 years of age. His papers are the sole support of the couple. but owing to his age and crippled condition he is given the preference among the newsboys that besiage the trains and he manages to earn several dollars a day. The old man expects to continue at the busi- ness as long as his strength holds out He is anxious to round out the een- turv and will likely do so.

Observation Cars for Women.

'Rah for the Chicago. Milwaukee
& St. Paul Railway. 1t has advanc-
ed at one leap. fifty years to the
lead, by putting on observation cars
which have compartments for wo-
men.
Ordinarily a woman in pretty much
of an intruder in an observation car.
when she has the nerve to fight her
way through the tobacco smoke and
timidly pick out a seat which isn't
occupied by the feet of some imper-
ial male being.
There is no doubt about it, the
most effective answer to the man
who claims America to be a paradise
for chivalry would be to dress him
up as a uni and make him spend
two days in an American railway
coach. The custom OF providing
1Ox1O compartments for men I
smoke in and AKA closets for women
to dress in, three at a time, is a reg
ular air-braks ON the progress of civ
ilization.

We have after much thought. and
considering the interest Of ourselves,
and our many customers, decided to
change our system of business to a
strictly cash system.
We not only promise to give our
customers the same goods for less
money than we hav been able TO
do heretofore. but we will give them
better goods for the same money
than they can buy any place in
town. We do not make this assertion
to mislead any one We mean what
we say. All we ask is that you give
us a trial order and be convinced.
Hoping that the above will meet
with the approval of all our custom
ers. and in view OF the fact that we
will give better service in every way,
in the future t our customers. than
we have been able to do in the past,
we respectfully solicit a continuance

OTHERS WANT cANNERY.


Commercial Club Receives Appliea-
tion From Missouri Parties Who
Would Open cannery Here.
The canning factory proposition Is
taking on new strength ver day.
Since Messrs. Roberts and Kinds ap-
peared before the Commercial Clubs
directors last Saturday night and laid
before them their plan and PROPOSE
ton to establish a cannery here. It
has been learned that the first right
TO open an institution of this kn
here. is a thing greatly to be desired.
and that there are many who would
like to have the cooperation of the
club and citizens tina Messrs. Rob-
erts and Kinds are asking. The club
has received an application OF this
kind from Missouri parties who de-
clare that they are anxious to start
value an institution of this kind
would be in Roswell.
Since the canning factory PROPOSE
ton came up, the merchants and CT
tizens generally have been looking
into the matter and without a single
exception, they have all expressed
themselves as being of the opinion
that it would not only be a paying
investment for those who put their
money into it, but also that it would
be a great thing for the Valley, and
particularly for Roswell. When Rob
er1s and Kinds came, they made a
canvass of the business men of the
town, and his is their report on the
conditions they found.
With the continued agitation Of h
cannery project. the business mems
interest has increased. A great many
of them nave expressed themselves
as being willing to take stock in a
company that might be started to
push the proposition through. Since
others have made application for the
assistance Of the Commercial Club
and citizens, the business men AVE
been disposed to Investigate all par
ties choose the one whose offer
seems to be the best. For this reason
the offer of Messrs. Roberts and
Kinds cannot be accepted at nee.
But whatever is done, should be lone
quickly. for the tomatoes and other
vegetables that are to be contracted
for among the farmers of the Valley
will soon have to be contracted for
in order to get them planted in time
for his summers run of the factory.
A few weeks of delay now will mean
that the factory cannot run three
months this coming summer, hi pos
sibly not in a paying before
the next.
