RAILROADS GALORE

The Burlington road is heading
for the Saratoga valley. or this
there is not the slightest question.
That company has had surveyors in
the field all fall and winter, running
a line from Fort Collins north and
one from Cheyenne west, the two in
tersection about six miles west ol
Hermosa Tie Siding). From there
the survey runs up Fish creek to the
Big Laramie aud over to Mountain
Home, which is ON Beaver creek
The survey runs down Beaver creek
to Douglas creek and down that
stream to the North Platte river.
To add TO the certainty that the
Burlington is coming into this valley

has let Il contract for a large number
of ties to be delivered at the mouth
of the Michigan river, where ii emp

cossArk's PASSION FOR VODKA.


His Happiness Conferred on Strong
Drink and Food.
Ernest PoGlo, in his striking article
in the October Everybody's. on pres
ont conditions in Russia. which he has
called Peasant Cattle" quotes a
brutal Cussack as follows:
"Fur what more can a man want
thar vodka? To close the loon of your
room to lie down on your bed with
a big gallon bottle of vodka lying
across yOur stomach, and plenty of
good cold meat and gigs on the chair
by your piiiow-that's living. Thank
the good God, who only makes us
stop meat and eggs in Lent, but lets
MS keep on with our vodka. We have
a clever trick for these Jolly bedroom
hours. You put the candle in Il little
dish Of water, so when you booze off
the candle burns on and on till the
flame strikes the water with a big
splinter and goes ont. This trick was
found out hundreds of years ago. and
row We all know it; so every one in
The village can get drunk without
danger of setting fire to anything.
We have different ways of drink
ing. The poor man who can only
have one bottle, he sucks it in
through II straw, because by drink.
ing il slower il gives YOU the same
feeling as II You had two bottles. But
the rich COssack who has three or
four bottlcs-he can just pour il down
in big glasscs."

PRICE 0F hILK
Dealers TsyihS to Agree on Dropping
 tho Price.

The retail milk dealers will meet in City hall Tuesday night to see if all will agree to keep up the price of the article during the summer months. Some of them want to drop cent, as usual, but others claim that if all get into line the consumers. will have no alternative and the dealers will con- tinue to do the same amount of busi- ness and be cent in on every quart of milk disposed of. It is said that milk is getting scarce, so much so that deal- CTS claim if they cared to put the price up to 10 cents they would sell as much as they could handle. Of course this is the argument offered by people who are out to ''do'' everybody, and there is no use railing at the milkmen for using it. If you don't like the price of the article as it comes from the COW and the pump you needn't put out your pail, and while you may think it hard to wean yourself from the use of the real thing and get down to the manu- factured stuff, the change won't affect you half as seriously as you imagine. You will more than make up for the loss of the milk ill undisturbed sleep, something which is out of the question while you have milk peddler thunder. ing along your veranda at all hours of the night.

PADEREWskI VERY ILL.
tamous VirtuoSo Stricken at Niag-

eamous virtuoso Stricken at Niag-
 ara Falls.
 NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y., April 29.- fgnace Paderewski, the great pianist, is seriously i'll in this city from a strange cause. His engagement here last night had to be cancelled.
 On Thursday night Paderewski gave . concert at London, Ont. While he was playing one of his most difficult pieces he suddenly felt something snap in the back of his neck. Immediately severe pains set in at the back of his head and down his spinal column.
 He was able to continue the concert, but his condition grew worse through the night, and he was unable to sleep.
 In his private car he made the jour- ney to this city, arriving here at 11:09 o'clock. His condition is much worse, his arms are stiff, and he has severe pains in the back and at the top of his head.
 A telegram was sent to Buffalo sum- m0ning Dr. Francis B. Fronczac of Fillmore avenue, French specialist, and he is now here. Paderewski's spe. cial car, the fastener, was attached to the train leaving here for Boston at 2:l6 o'clock in the afternoon, and he will make the trip through to that city for medical attention.
 Paderewski has canceled all the re. maining engagements of his tour in this country. Dr. Fronczac's diagnosis of Paderewski's ailment was to the eff. feet that he is suffering from a severe attack of neuritis. It has also been suggested that his ailment may be something in the nature of meningitis.
 Ignace Paderewski's musical genius, as given expression on the piano, is known the world over. He has made many tours of the United States, al- ways carrying his audiences before him. His fortune resulting from his art Is said to be next to Adelina Patti's.

TWO CANDIDATES
Waterbury Delegates go to K. of C.
 Conventiou Divided.

The state convention of the K of G will be held in Derby next Tuesday. The delegates chosen to represent the local council are as follows: Sheridan council, Grand Knight Lucien F. Wolff and Past Grand J. w. McDon- aid; Barcelona council, Grand Knight Farrell Martin, D. D., and Past Grand August Coward; Hendricken council, Grand Knight Timothy F. Conway and Past Grand Charles E. Mcdonald; Mulcahy council, Grand Knight George F. O'Neill and Past Grand Joseph $. Worsley.
 Among the principal matters to coine before the convention are the selection of three delegates to the national con yention at Los Angeles in June and the question of a monument to the founder of the order. Three dele gates will be chosen but it is not at all likely that more than one will be taken from the same town so that it is extremely doubtful if the Water- bury delegation will be pleased with the result. There are two candidates here and nobody expects that both will win out, and judging by what one hears to-day there is some doubts about either getting there some of the delegates wanting to settle the local snarl by pushing the present aspirants aside and uniting upon one. The race has become so lively in Waterbury that delegates from other towns are giving it some attention and have suggested that all unite on one man if they nope to see one of their number elected to attend the national convention. A move is being made in this direction but whether it will amount to anything is something nobody cares to say, ill fact it is question if anybody knows. The candidates already in the field and in whose interest considerable mission ary work is being done are the Rev Farrell Martin, D. D., grand knight of Barcelona council, and J. w. McDon- aid, past grand of Sheridan. Some of the wise heads think the successful delegates will be Messrs Glynn of Win sted, Flynn of Derby and Burke of Willimantic, but this is nothing more than conjecture. Waterbury is enti- tied to delegate and if the full dele gation stands together they will get one, but if they enter in two factions the rest of the body won't be likely to take much stock in them.
 There are no dissenting opinions with reference to the monument and the resolution is expected to be passed unanimously.

Milford, Me-, Threatened by . Disas.
 trous Fire.
 MILFORD, Me, April 29. = Sparks from pile of burning waste boards on the bank of the Penobscot river, carried by the wind into the lumber, yard of Barker & Sons, started fire that before it had been controlled de. stroyed twenty-one buildings and 100000 feet of box lumber, entailing total loss roughly estimated at $5O,. GOO.
 A strong wind spread the flames rap. idly, and for time it was thought that the village, with it's large lumber interests, would be wiped out. At dusk the wind died down, and, fire 'appa. ratus arriving from Bangor and Old. town, the progress of the flames was checked.
 The buildings destroyed included the Episcopal church, the Maine Central railroad station, the town hall, three stores and fifteen dwellings. The build. ings were small, of wooden frames, and did not average over 5000 in value. The lumber loss falls chiefly on Barker X Sons and is estimated at $1O.OOO. The Jordan Lumber company of Oldtown was small loser.

 Business Outlook.
 NEW YORK, April 29. = Business broadens in wholesome manner, and the most encouraging indication regardl ing the future IS the scarcity of labordis putes. These controversies are usually most numerous on May 1, but this year no serious trouble is threatened, and one beneficent result is the expanding activity in the building trades. Job. bers have experienced a good spring trade, and manufacturers are now re. ceiving large contracts for fall ship. ment, while retail sales are of satis. factory volume except at a few points where inclement weather has tempo rarily retarded distribution.
 Liabilities of commercial failures thus far reported for April amounted to s. 75S.S0S. of which $2,314,41O were in manufacturing, $3,163,627 in trading and $2S0,771 in other commercial lines. Failures for the week numbered 2O4 in the United States against POP last year and 15 in Canada compared with 16 a year ago.

HUSBAND SPENT SAVINGS
hrs yiftinia castsa nal Hin As.
 retssd en Boay Wit,

Upon the complaint of his wife Vir. ginia, Philomena Guerra was arrested last evening by Constable Lannen on body writ. A peculiar story is be. hind this arrest. On March IS Philo. mena and Virginia were married by Justice of the peace, with the under standing that they were not to live to- gether until the church ceremony would be performed. This was to take place within year. Meanwhile, both were to work and be as thrifty as pos sible, and to make matters dOubly se- cure PhilOmena was to be treasurer. Virginia had no faith in her strength against the temptations that were daily seen. in the milliners' windows and dry goods stores, and if she sue cumbed to these vain would be their hopes for the future. They could never live in Italy as they expected; probably would never have money enough to take them there. So vir- ginfa gave all her savings to Philo- mena, thinking he was accommodating bank account for their joint prosperi- ty.
 A few weeks ago some one told vir- glnia that Philomena, her half hus- band, was running riot with money, that he seemed to be the richest young man on Jackson street. Virginia lived on Mill street. Inquiries revealed the startling fact that Philomena had been spending not only his own money but his wife's also and that instead of hay ing q bank account, neither had cent in the world. So last evening Attorney Bauby, counsel for Virginia, had Philo- mena arrested on body writ. She wants $1OO damages. Philomena fur nished bond and was released.
