The new car is absolutely non-col-

any collision. It's hidden frame is like

telescoping is secured by the use of
heavy steel girders. the principal feat

central box girder "a inches wide by
10 inches deep. extending throughout
the length OF the coach. In the past
railroads have found that when trains
collided and the body of one car rose
above the body Of the next there was
tendency for the underframe of the
first car TO sweep the superstructure
Of the second car off its underframe.

1900 Steel Cars to Be suilt.

The decision now definitely reached

quest Of the Pennsylvania Railroad the
Pullman company is now building the
first all-steel sleeper ever constructed.

vania officials at a very early date.
Railroad officials and travellers gem
orally have been keenly interested In
the result Of the Pennsylvania ex-

called steel coaches have been built,
notably for the New York subway
but they have been only partly of steel.

wherein the main object has been to

against $4,000 for the standard wooden
coach but il is found that the added
weight very greatly reduces the vibra-
tion and adds TO the comfort of the
passengers No inconsiderable part of
the additional weight is due to the
great burden involved in carrying stor-
age batteries and battery boxes. All
the new cars are to be lighted by
electricity. and the Pennsylvania will
carry no gas-illuminated cars Of any
kind into its New York tunnel. The
electric wires in the new cars are all

weight Of the present car can be still

Contrivance of California Man Screws
Into the Ground.


The old-time fence post has served
its purpose for SO long that it is about
time 1T was improved. 1t has always
seemed natural that in erecting a
renee post a hole should first be dug
In the ground and the end Of the pest
inserted In the hole, the remaining
space being filed up again. A Cali
forn1a man thinks this method antique
and cumbersome and has invented an
exceedingly simple plan which entire
ly eliminates this procedure. BY the
use OF his method the initial digging of
the hole is entirely unnecessary. The
bottom of this post is spiral in shape,
similar to an auger, being pointed at
the end, and after being partly insert
ed in the ground is turned round and
round until sunk sufficiently deep. To
more easily accomplish this a dummy
post with dOuble-headed lever, which
first bores the hole in ground, can be

Mrs'Bessie Mnsiey

To be such a successful wife, to re-
tain the love and admiration of her
husband. to inspire him to make the
most of himself, should be a woman's
constant study.
If a woman finds that her energies
are tagging, that she gets easily tired,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
she has backache, headaches, bearing
down pains, nervousness, Irregularities
or the blues, she should start at once
to build up her system by tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
Following we publish by request .
letter from young wife:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:
"Ever since my child was born have suf-
fered as hope few women ever have, with in
hammation, female weakness, bearing-down
pains, backache and wretched headaches. 1t
affected my stomach so could not enjoy my
meals, and half my time was spent in bed.

made me we'll woman, and feel so grateful
that am glad to write and tell you Of my
marvellous recovery. 1t brought me health,

What Lydia e. Pinkhans Vegetable
Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will
do for every sick and ailing woman.
If you have symptoms you don't un-
derstand write to Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter-in-law of Lydia K. Pinkham,
at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free and
always helpful.

Use of Windmill.

Will a windmill pump water from
spring 400 feet distance and on a level
40 feet below? What size of windmill
and what size of pipe would be re-
CURED? What would a steel tower for
used for threshing and also for grind
ing grain? Where should windmill be
situated?
An S-foot windmill with a 3-inch
pump and 1 u inch delivery pipe would
pump about 400 gallons of water per
hour in good wind. A 10-foot wind
mill with a 4-inch pupmp and pinch
delivery pipe would pump about $40
gallons per hour, in the circumstances
here mentioned. If pumping water is
all that is required, either of these
sizes will be satisfactory.
The cost of a steel tower for wind
mill may be obtained by writing to
any of the windmill manufacturers.
On account of the height to which
the water is to be lifted, namely 40
feet, it will be necessary to place the
pump at the spring, or at point not
more than twenty-five feet vertically
higher than the spring. On this ac-
count the windmill being situated at
some distance from the barn, it can
not conveniently be used for other
power In any event the windmill Is
not suitable for threshing, as it can
not be depended upon to give steady
and constant power. 1t is adapted to
such work as pumping and grinding
grain.

The Republican nominee for sheriff
of Stearns county, Ogle R. Hatton,
was born in Canada and is 80 years
old. He comes from that good old
stock of Irish and German-his father
being Irish and his mother German.
Together with his parents he came
to Washington, county Minnesota,
when he was seven years old, where
he resided with his parents on farm
until the age of seventeen. Ogle was
the tenth child in the Hatton family
. of fourteen, and, as his parents were
not any too we'll blessed with this
worlds goods, it was necessary for
the children to get out and hustle for
themselves as early as possible. Our
subject lost no time in starting
out in the world and hustling for
himself after he had arrived at such
an age that he could hold position.
At the aga of seventeen he was a tele-
graph operator for the c. NJ. & st. P.
Ry. Up to this time he had stayed on
the farm with his parents, ic!ping to
till the farm in the summer and going
to district school and doing chores in
the winter. By hard work and saving
habits he also managed to save up
enough money to take him through a
term or two at the Curtiss Business
college at St. Paul in order 90 better
qualify himself to make good in life.
After two years service as operator
for the G. NJ. & St. P. Ry. and the
! Wisconsin Central he came over to
the Minneapolis & Pacific, now the
500 Line, by which company he has
been employed for the last twenty
years as an agent for the 500 Line in
} Brooten il this county for the last
4 fifteen years. The 500 Line has sew
eral times offered him the best agen-
i cies on their system but all offers
4 have been declined on account of per-
< sonal interests in Brooten. Mr.. Hat
ton enjoys the confidence and respect
of his superiors on the 500 system
as we'll as mis- fellow workers. He
! holds the office of chairman of the
Telegraphers general committee,
I which Office he has held since 1901.
Mr.. Hatton is pioneer resident of
Brooten and has done much in the
interest of this thriving village. Be-
sides attending to all his duties as
station agent he has held other vari-
Gus positions of trust and served as
president of the village for several
years. He is clean man, temperate
and conservative in habits and active
Sand accurate in all business transac-
tions. He has most estimable fami-
