C1n1da'S Contract
 70 Aia the Grand Trunk Pacific

HC EtW Il dIu Itl!k dIlllC iai,WaY is to run from somewhere ii N cw Brunswick to somewhere Ill british Co umbia. spanning the continent from ocean to ocean. It is gigantic undertaking, yet as a matter of fact it differs from all Canadian roads ill that it is not to receive single subsidy ill either money, lands or bonds. The aid which the Grand Trunk Pacific will receive from the Dominion is given specifically by railroad authority as the following:
 The government Is to guarantee an issue of bonds which shall amount to two thirds of the cost of the western section. In this guar antee the government will be se- cured by first mortgage on all of the western section and upon the entire equipment of tie road. Should the railroad company fail to meet either interest or priucipaI the government has the light to fore closure, thereby guaranteeing it against loss.
 The government also agrees to pay the interest on the cost of con struction of the mountain section, a portion of the western section, for seven years, and also the interest Ou the cost of construction of the eastern section for a like period. The total interest which Ihe gov ernment will have to pay is est mated at SI5, ,ooo ,ooo upon the theory that the money can be got at ! per cent. As the government is to construct the eastern section ana then rent 1t to the railroad at 5 per cent. for d term of fifty years, reimbursement will thus be had for the interest payments upon the construction loans.
 In return for this aid the govern Inent secures guarantee that freight originating on the road and not otherwise routed by the shipper shall, when destined for points in Canada, be carried entirely upon Canadian territory or between Car adian ports, and that the through rates from point of origin to point of destination shall never be greater by way of Canadian ports than by way of American ports, and that all trafhC not otherwise routed hy the shipper shall be carried to Canadian ports. The company further agrees Co provide at both Atlantic and Pa ci6c potts ample shipping connec. tious, so that ffeigh, will not be diverted to American ports on ac- count ot lack of shipping facilities .Ns the lease Co the railway also contains covenants and an Indems

Our with Spain gave rise to the first doubts as to
the representations made by the governments of the
world regarding the true conditions OF their hght1ng

TO be incorrect. The fighting between Russia and
Japan swept away forever the last vestge OF the
old rating. Japan has appeared in the open as
frst-cass sea power; while Russia still must be rated
as an undetermined factor in naval strength. An
examination of Cloves Brassey, previous to 1898,
gives Russia tremendous prePonderance in power

SLEEP WITHOUT DRUGS
Method Prescribed by a
Physician as Cure for
Insomnia
inecial to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 29.-An inter-
esting demonstration of his muscular
method" of inducing sleep without re-
course to drugs was demonstrated be-
fore the Mississippi Valley Medical as
sociation recently by DR.. j. B. Learned
of Northampton, Mass. AS a result OF
an accident twenty-five years ago he
became a victim of insomnia. To treat
insomnia without drugs, with himself
as the patient, became his special
study.
with two couches on the. platform
and two physicians as subjects he d.
rected one to lie on his back and to
extend his legs so that If possible he
might add to his length. The other sub
ject was to lie upon his side, with his
arms extended beyond the couch and
also to be at full length.
"If the person lying in this position
keeps up this exertion." DR.. Learned
said, "he will certainly soon feel
sense of fatigue and desire to abandon
that position. He will turn over on his
side and curl up in the usual way. L
assume that by this eXertion thousands
of muscular cells have been broken
down and that repairs must go on"

QUITS JOB TO HUNT C00NS
Aged Postmaster In Oklahoma Found
Duties Interfered With
Sport
snecial to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
GUTHRIE, Okla, Oct. 29.-Dr. Ste
phen Call, an octogenarian resident of
ingalls,, in Eastern Oklahoma, boasts
that he has killed more coons than any
other living man, and although an oc-
togenarian, DR.. Call still follows the
sport.
DIR. Call learned to burn powder with
Gen. Lew Wallace in Mexico during
the war with that country, and later
he followed this same leader through
the civil war. In addition to being
through two wars, he has had three
wives.
The time of year is rapidly approach
ing when coons are the "ripest," ac-
cording to this veteran hunter, and this
winter will be spent, as have all those
in the past, hunting in the woods.
When there was a vacancy In the
postoff1ce at ingalls,, several years ago,
DR.. Call won the place with ease. But
the position was too binding. He soon
employed another man to look after the
affairs of the office, so that he could
hunt. Recently he resigned the office,
stating that he could not find the time
to give both it and hunting coons the
attention they required.

COL. BILL PHELPS WEEDS AGAIN
Well Known Missouri Lawyer and
Famous Lobbyist Marries His
StenographeI

OlCItOSTdPHCT
Special to The Herald.
CARTHAGE, Mo-, Oct. 29.-Colonel
William Phelps, whom rumor recently
reported as having been married to
his stenographer and secretary, Miss
Katherine O'Leary, in Paris, where
both were sightseeing, declared today
that the report at that time was un-
true, but said he had married Miss
O'Leary last Wednesday in Chicago.
Colonel Phelps returned from his trip
abroad several weeks ago, but abso-
lutely refused to either deny or affirm
the report of his wedding. To all in
quiries he replied that when he got
ready to make a statement he would
make it, and not before.
Colonel Phelps and his secretary ar
rived in Carthage from st. Louis yes
terday and hurried from the station
to the colonels "red devil" and before
any one had chance to speak to him
they were off for his farm, several
miles out Of town.
I'VE were not married in Paris as
reported" Colonel Phelps said, but in
Chicago. AS to the author of the re-
cent rumor concerning our marriage
do not know. Miss O'Leary was not in
Paris during the summer and was on
the return trip home when L was re-
ported to have wed her.
II knew nothing of the reports until
I reached New York. L couldn't admit
the stories were true, because they
were not true, and to have denied
them, wrong construction might have
been placed upon the mater.
"Now that we are married there is no
longer any cause for evasion or con-
cealment. The wedding took place in
Chicago last Wednesday at the home of
Mrs. Phelps sister. Further than this
do not care TO discuss until later"
Colonel Phelps has for many years
been attorney for the Missouri Pacific
railroad in Missouri, and he has not
hesitated to refer to himself as a
lobbyist. He is shrewd, capable man,
with a thorough knowledge of human
nature, a leader in the Democratic
party and an extensive cattle raiser.
