ISLAND DARK AND SLOW.

Not Enough Power to Light the
Streets and the Keep TOllcys Going.
The trolley cars throughout Staten
Island, which have been limping bad
ly ever since a week ago last Sunday,
when there was a triple accident at
the power houses, were in worse con-
dition than ever last night and the
street lighting circuits were also in
trouble.
For an hour all the arc lights were
out and did only Intermittent service
after that. The trolley cars had their
poorest nights service. Their usual
course was to lie dead for from ten to
fifteen minutes, then run for any
thing from five to fifteen minutes and
then stand still. No information as
to when an effective service will be
established could be obtained at the
Offices of the company controlling the
power.

ANOTHER WONDER OF SCIENCE,
BiOIOgy has Proved that Dandruh -
Caused by a Germ.

Science is DOING wonders these days in
medicine as well as in mechanics. Since
Adam lived, the human race has been
roubIe with %dandruff. for which no hair
preparation has heretofore proved a sue
cessful cure until Newbro's Herpiclde was
put on the market. 1t is a scientific prep
aration that kills the germ that makes
dandruff or scurf by digging into the
scalp to got at the root of the hair, where
it saps the vitality; causing itching scalp.
falling hair. and finally badness. With
out dandruff hair must grow 1uxuriantly.
1t Is the only destroyer OF dandruff.

Milwaukee Road Said to Be Preparing
For Solid Freight Service.

Duluth, Jan. Silt is reported in
railroad circles, but cannot be con-
firmed, that the Milwaukee road will
begin running its own solid freight
trains to the head of the lakes this
year. The Milwaukee road does a
great deal of business at the head of
the lakes, and in this territory, over
the Northern Pacific road, and main
tains a general agency here
The Milwaukee also has a trackage
agreement with the Northern Pacific,
and may at any time run it's own
trains to the head of the lakes over
that company's tracks. The trackage
agreement extends to the operation
OF passenger trains, but it is not
likely that the latter will be run here
for some time. At least there is no
gossip that the Milwaukee contem-
plates anything of the kind.
Some out of town railroad men who
were in the city during the past few
days report that the Northern Pacific
Is making ready for the increased
train service to be put on by the Mil
waukee system.
c. L. Kennedy, general agent of the
Milwaukee road, says that he has re-
ceived no notice that his line is to
run its own freight trains to the head
of the lakes.

WANT THE GRAIN.
Elevators Are Rivals in North Country
Times Are Brisk.

battle royal is on betwee nthe diff
ferent elevator lines in the northwest,
and the local agents at Bottineau are
meeting competition with a vengeance,
and are paying fancy prices for the
foundation of all breadstuffs. The
Kenmare Journal came to our ex-
change table this week with the latest
market quotations stamped on one cor
ner with a rubber stamp, showing that
the fight is on in real earnest over
there.
The farmers are the gamers by this
warfare, and only proves that the
farmer who keeps his grain until after
the first of the year is very apt to
profit by doing SO. There are quite a
number of these forehanded farmers
that will realize quite handsomely by
having granary room.
With the good sleighing it is rea-
sonable to suppose that good lot If
grain will be hauled to market during
the coming week or two.
