A Pertinent Question.

President Frank ]. Hearne Of the Col
orado Fuel & Iron company Of Denver,
tells this story Of the late Joshua Cen
try, at one time president Of the Hanni-
bal & st. Joseph railway, which is now
part Of the Burlington system:
Gentry was fond of going over the
lines of the railroad in old and rather
shabby clothes. At q junction station
one day he climbed into the cab Of one
Of his locomotives while the engineer
was busy oiling. When the engineer
returned to the cab President Gentry
pointed to the steam guage, which stood
at 100, and asked:
Is that all the steam you carry ~
why said the engineer, @that's the
second time around
The man iii shabby clothes asked sew
eral other questions which seemed fool
ish to the man behind the throttle and
finally the engineer turned on him.
who are you, anyway"
Il am Joshua Gentry, president of
this railroad, 2 said that official, with dig
nifty.

INTERESTING FACTS
Remarks BY An Observer.


ct seems strange to ME, remarked a
prominent physician the other day, Swhy
% many people make light OF what i,
IA many respects, one Of the most dan
sespus diseases-Grip. Scores Of people

Would you consider it fashionable to
have a weak heart, affected lungs or

to spend the Remainder of your days in
an insane asylum! These are not mere
fancies; they are pictures drawn from
life showing the awful results from Grip.
OF course all persons suffering from an
attack OF Grip are not left with these
Affections, but hare yet to discover
a person who has had this disease who
has not been left with some portion Of
his system weakened. Ii is this weak
spot that is susceptible to every I'M
healthy influence that comes along. The
best way to prevent Grip is to keep the
system in such good condition that il
will throw off any tendencies toward
this prevalent disease"

Judge Allows Question TO

REASONS FOR DIVULGING
Must BE Tried on Facts-Thus to De-

Attorneys Fan to Secure
Agreement.

Chicago, Ill, Jan. so.--All efforts to
reach an agreement upon the facts at
issue having failed, the packers ease was
resumed yesterday and the taking Of ey-
idence begun.
Louis O. Krauthoff of New York, for
merly general counsel for Armour g.
Co., was first called to narrate his in
terview with Commissioner OF Corpora
tions Garfield at the Chicago club, April
10, 1905, when the packers allege MIR.
Garfield said certain things, the import
OF which was that If he received the in
formation for which he asked, the pack
ers should never be prosecuted Grim
inally.
Mr.. Krauthoff was asked by John s.
Miller, attorney for Armour g. Co., if
he had advised his clients with respect
TO their attitude during the investiga-
ton called for by the Martin resolution
passed BY Congress, and under which
the commissioner OF corporations began
his inquiry into the packing industry.
District Attorney Morrison objected 70
the question and was sustained by Judge
Humphrey.
Mr.. Miller then asked the witness if
he had advised his clients under the
resolution. The district attorney again
objected, declaring all that could be in
CURED into was what transpired between
the packers and the officers Of the gov.
eminent. Judge Humphrey admitted
the question, declaring that if it were
true that the packers divulged evidence
against themselves under pressure from
the government, 1t would be competent
to show the nature Of the legal advice
under which the defendants were act
ing.

New York, Jan. so.--The taking of
testimony In the suits instituted BIZ the
State Of Missouri against the Standard
Oil Company, through Attorney General
Hadley, will not, as had been arranged,

on and a decision from Justice Glider
sleeve as to the admissibility OF the
questions which Fl. II. Rogers, vice presi-
dent OF the Standard Oil company, had
refused to answer, was expected yes

that he had been advised that a decision
was soon to be handed down BY the Su.
prerne Court Of Missouri, which would
settle the question OF the right of the
state 10 inquire into the matter Of stock

this action, was proceeding under the
advice Of Mr.. Hadley, who was in Cleve-

cumstances, win hardly pass upon the
legality Of the stand taken by Mr. Rogers
in refusing to answer the questions put
