Died While Waiting For Train.

H. w. Follett and son, Charles, came
Eup from Cortez Tuesday morning on
the stage for the purpose of leaving on
the noon train for their home In Liber-
tyville; III suburb of Chicago) Illinois.
The train was late and the young man
lay down on the platform and took
nap, waking up he ate part of an
apple that gentleman had given to
his father and seemed as well as usual
His father told him that the train
would be due soon and that they had
better go into the depot. He COM
planned Of being tired and asked his
father. to. assist him. When he sat
down his father noticed change come
over his face and sent for doctor but
he passed away a few minutes later
without a struggle.
The young man had been suffering
with lung trouble for several years,
contracting the disease while in school,
but was pronounced cured by his physi-
clan and returned to college graduating
at the age of 81. He came west In
search of health two years ago, spend-
ing last winter at the Y. M. G. A.
farm at Denver. When summer came
he and three companions procured q
team, wagon and camping outfit and
started for New Mexico by way Of
the Yellowstone Park. Two of the
company were compelled to return to
Denver on account Of their health, but
young Follett. and his companion con-
tinusd on their journey, visiting Vel
lowstone and then turning southwark
into Utah. They reached Southeastern
Utah the first Of December when Mr..
Follett was taken sick with pneumonia.
AS soon. as he recovered they crossed
over into Colorado and stopped for the
winter at hfoqui, in the McElmo.
Young Follett, not wishing his
parents to worry about him.. always
wrote, hopeful letters home,, but his
father who sent him money each week
by. registered mail, noticed that the
receipts. were always signed by his
sons companion and wrote asking the
cause Of this. The boy then admitted
that 1t was sometimes task for him
to go to the postofIice. Upon receiving
this letter the father started at once
for Colorado arriving here Saturday.
He found the boy looking worse than
he expected he would, but with good
appetite ahd seening to be quite strong;
being able Sunday morning to milk
a cow. The father concluded to
take him back to-, Chicago that he
might see. Ibis mother again and spend
his last days at home. :.
Deceased was "a years old and leaves
father, mother and several brothers to
mourn his departure.
The body was taken from the depot
to Pyle's Undertaking rooms and a
message sent A. r. Hood who came up
from Durango on Wednesdays train
and embalmed the body for shipment

shorten the time of transit alone would
bring the business and what will it
not do when rates are also reduced
one half?
The stock to build the first 100 miles
of the new road will be sold at a
price to average not less than $40 per
share and over 70 per cent of the $25
stock has been sold and as the price
will be raised when the other 80 per
cent or less is sold, those who desire
to purchase the $25 stock must ACT
PROMPTLY. This is simply telling
the facts and not intended to try to
SCARE anyone into buying stock. All
stock is of the par value of $100 per
share and all receivable by the road
at its par value, as soon as the road
or any part thereof is in operation,
and as this first 100 miles will be run
ming in less than eighteen months, the
stock you pay $25 for now will be
worth 500 THEN. AS we have no
use for the money except to build
the road with, we are making it easy
for you to take stock and pay for it,
One-tenth each month. Of course you
can pay in full if you wish, but the
price is all the same Long before
you have made your tenth payment,
others will be paying $50 for what
you are getting for $25.
You ask, how can that be possible?
Simple enough. The hard part of
every enterprise is getting started, and
the hard part of this was to raise the
first million dollars. Hence our very
liberal offer of s25 stock and the pub
lies liberal response has exceeded our
most sanguine expectations.
In response to my first ad in one
of our weekly papers, one farmer sub
scribed for 100 shares, another for so

FROM CHICAGO TO NEW YORK IN 10 HOURS. FARE $40

Last week told the readers of The
Nebraska Independent about the new
air line railroad which was going to
be built from Chicago to New York
and also about my trip to Chicago and
its results. When I wrote that letter
l told you construction of the new
road would begin September 1. I
have just returned from an extended
trip to Chicago and along the line of
the new road through Northern In
diana and Ohio. Work began on Sep
tember 1 as per schedule, and is now
being pushed at rapid rate. l visited
the camps along the new road and
everything is going along like clock
work and every one is enthusiastic
and the country is alive with interest.
So | say to you now, not that we
are GOING to build a railroad, but
that we ARE BUILDING a railroad,
and the contractor for the construc-
ton work told me when left LaPorte,
Ind, that they would be running trains
into Chicago in less than one year.
put it at eighteen months in my last
letter; he puts it at one year. I stated
then that as soon as the first trains
were started on the first section of
the road that all stock issued would
Immediately be at par. | now repeat
that there is not power enough in
Wall Street to keep it below 800 per
share, when our first section begins
operation, for reasons which l stated.
This road is being built as no rail-
road in the United States was ever
before built, by popular subscription,
and without any preferred stock or
any bonds and will be owned by the
stockholders when completed, and free
from debt and as result all net earn
ings will go to the stockholders-the
people. Consequently this road will
not be obliged to charge excessive
rates to pay dividends and WILL BE
where it can. and WILL greatly re-
duce present rates. Think what it
will mean to the country to have the
best trunk line railroad between Chi
cago and New York ACTUALLY
OWNED BY THE PEOPLE-not gov
ernment ownership, but the next best
thing, POPULAR OWNERSHIP.
Long before this road is finished a
similar one will be begun from Chicago
to Omaha and five years hence we will
be running our crops and live stock
to Chicago and New York for one-half
what we now pay. Electricity is the
coming motive power and the first
through trunk line of that kind will
simply be swamped with business. To

Tenderloin Hiqh Roller.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-As a ten
derloin high-roller Henry Alfred Doug
las Schultz, the offspring of a German
Rhine wine manufacturer has had a
rather meteoric career. Immediately
clad, and lavish in mis- expenditure Of
money, he attracted considerable at
tention, but, alas, the glitter and CLAM
our Of tenderloin life soon overcame
him for he reduced his existence to a
revel in wine, women and song. Late
suppers in the fashionable hotels, the
acquaintance of stage butterflies and
other expensive little luxuries evident
ly drew him from the path of rectitude
and in order to replenish his fast d.
minishing Golfers he resorted to the
expedient usually adopted by swell
noblemen of cracking a crib After
visit which he paid to Messrs. Mou-
quin Brothers, wine importers in Ann
street, it was found that the safe was
tempered with and $500 abb
stracted. Schultz came from the wat
