Railroads
G. N. TO CUT GRADES
WILLMAR LINE
WILL BE MADE AS NEARLY
LEVEL AS PossIBLE-TRAINs
DISCONTINUED. .s

Extensive track revision work and
grade-cutting is to be done this season
by the Great Northern road on it's line
between Minneapolis and Willmar. The
purpose Is to make this one of the
nearest level lines out of Minneapolis.
Inasmuch as about thirty work trains
will be in service on this stretch of
track, the passenger train service will
be almost discontinued, except for one
local train. ....., -. .E~@ .---s.
The Great Northern is evidently TAX
freight line from Minneapolis to Devils
Lake on the main line for it's thru
coast trains. With the Willmar and
Breckenridge divisions in fine shape
and the new Aneta line completed thru
to Devils Lake, the Great Northern
will have new and more direct line
to the coast.
Two years ago steps were first taken
in this work, when westbound hills on
the Willmar division were cut. The
work this summer will be on the east
bound grades and the line will be vir-
tually double-tracked from Wayzata to
miles. The changes will enable the
| company to handle the large volume
of freight business on that line, and
the still larger business that Is expected
when the Sioux City line is extended
southwark to connect with the Bur.
lington system. It is possible that
the Oriental limited will be operated
by this route, instead of over the st.
Cloud division.
To accommodate the travel to points
between Minneapolis and Willmar this
summer, it is probable that local
train will be operated between Mime
apolis and Willmar, leaving Mime
apolis in the evening and returning the
next morning about 10 o'clock.
Trains No. 8 and 8, leaving Mime
apolis at 1892 pm. and $3.50 PM, anc
trains No. and 10, arriving at 10:1
pm. and 7:40 am, will probably be
run over the St. Cloud and Fergus Falls
division, Or by the way Of St. Cloud
Willmar and the Breckenridge divi
| sion.
The company will announce the new
time card in short time.

morphine, opiate, narcotic, nor any
thing to cause a drug habit. They do
| not act on the bowels but they actually
make new blood and strengthen the

must have good blood.
DR. Williams Pink Pills cure rheuma-

and no man or woman can have healthy
blood and rheumatism at the same time.
Rheumatism is q disease of the blood
and to cure 1t you must treat it In the

the body is dependent on the blood for
health. DIR. Williams Pink Pills actu-

OF CENTRAL cREEPEF
Beat Midnight BY Few Minutes
Only.

The rocky record maintained by the
Central Railroad for weeks past in the
arrival of it's trains at Americus con-
tinues un broken, and with no prospecS
of any improvement in the outrage
ously bad service. Travellers here, tired
women and children, never know when
to expect train, and weary hours are
spent in waiting. A case in point was
the 1925 train, No. Z, from Macon Fri
day night, It was marked up forty
minutes late, and actually arrived one
hour and twenty minutes late, beating
midnight by few moments only, And
during the time after the expiration OF
the first forty minutes of delay the fig
ures upon the bulletin were never
changed-same old forty minutes late.
The travelling public is getting terribly
tired of these constant, daily delays,
and it would not be surprising if for
NAL and direct protest is made in the
hope of securing a Better or more re-
liable train service,

A SHOWER OF BALES
FALLS ON CITY.
Nine Hundred are Marketed
Here.
THE BEST DAY OF THE MONTH
Americus Gets eos Bales Cotton by
Wagon Yesterday Probably Half
the Number Sold and Cash Proceeds
Helped Business.

A rain Of cotton bales upon Amerl-
Gus yesterday brought to merchants
here the best days business of the fall
season. Receipts were larger than on
any previous day of the month, the
total at the warehouses going slightly
over the 900 marx.
The exact figures were 905 bales, and
good is the total.
All of this, too, was wagon cotton,
brought direct to the arehouses, and
does not include shipments made by
rail to the compress. This cotton is
sold here and the money circulated
here
Warehousemen report considerable
sales of cotton at prevailing prices,
nine cente, and of the 9O5 bales mar
keted here yesterday probably half
were sold and the proceeds applied to
the payment of debts and the pur-
chasing of other supplies.
And, altogether, it made business
very good in Americus, particularly
among the retail merchants and supply
men. Thousands came here to trade,
and there was more money IN evidence,
perhaps, than on any other day of the
fall, season.
Amerieus now has q total of $3.50
bales, and this will be very largely in
creased by receipts this week.
