AFTER OIL TRUST
THAT AND OFFENDING RAIL.
ROADS TO BE PROSECUTED.
GARFIELD LOOKS INTO REBATES
Matter to BE Brought Before Grand
Jries and Where II is Found Viola.
lions Of Law Have Occurred Evil.
dence VIII BE Taken.

WASIINGTON-The statement was
authoritatively made that the depart
ment of justice will Immediately be-
gin an investigation of the relations
of the so-called oil trust and number
OF railroads, with view Of determin.
ing whether there have been violations
of the antirebate law.
The basis for this investigation will
be the information recently submitted
to the president in report of Com.
missioner Garfield of the bureau of
corporations, which is soon to be made
public. This report, it is learned, deals
only with the subject of rebates and
does not go into the questions of vio-
lations of the antitrust law.
If 1t is found that rebates have been
given by the railroads and accepted by
the so-caled trust, steps will be at
once taken, it is asserted, to bring the
matter before the grand juries in the
localities where the alleged violations
took place, with view to prosecutions
in the courts. IL is not thought that
the department Of justice in conducting
its inquiries will require the service of
any one outside of the department
proper, and the United States attorneys
and other officers under its immediate
direction.
1t is stated that Mr.. Garfield in con-
Quoting his investigation travelled ex-
tensively and visited all important Sec
tons covered by the operations of the
so-called trust, from New England to
California, and the south, and that the
evidence obtained is amply sufficient
to warrant the department of justice
in taking the course decided upon.

Cream separators in Nebraska.

There are now nearly $4,000 cream
separators in use in Nebraska, which
makes 1t the greatest cream separator
state In the union. This universal use
of the cream separator speaks elo-
quently of its money making qualities
and thousands Of farmers In the corn
and wheat belts who formerly en-
gagged In grain raising and general
farming now find 1t infinitely more
profitable to engage in dairying. The
Nebraska Experiment Station authori-
ties estimate that from So to 80 per
cent. of the $4,000 separators in use
In Nebraska are the farmers De
Laval machines. This is not surpris.
ing, as their excellent efficiency and
the general satisfaction they give have
made market for them In all parts
Of the world.

Is extraordinary. An ordinary ele-
plant can carry half ton continu-
ously on a level road. A native in
structor sits on the back of each ele-
plant and controls his movements,
but really the sagacious creatures need
little attention.
AS a mere figure in pageants the
elephant plays very conspicuous part
in the receptions given to the prince
and princess, notably at Jammu and
Gwalior.
Among the large and varied collec-
ton of wild animals, ereptiles and
birds brought back by Capt. Stanley
Flower, of the British army, in ais
recent expedition to the Blue Nile
the first as regards Importance and
interest are three baby African ele-
plants captured by Arabs in the up
per waters of the Blue Nile. One of
these was presented by Capt. McMur-
do, d. S. o., director of the slave
trade department, and the other two
were purchased. These elephants are
from eight to ten months old and are
rarely found so young in captivity,
those now in Cairo being most prob.
ably the first ever brought there, only
about half dozen others being known
to exist in the different geological gar
dens in the world Walking about the
gardens in charge of their keeper
Kocutsh Zakieh and Dandy form a
most attractive trio, particularly when
they lift their large leaflike ears and
salute by raising their little trunks to
their foreheads and afterwards put
these same trunks into the pocket of
the visitor in search of something
toothsome. 1t is to be hoped that
these fascinating babies may long con-
tinue to delight the visitors to the
Ghizeh gardens, where they are now
attracting much attention.

ODD TEAM OF MOOSE.
Broken to Drive in Harness by Ed
ward Crossman of Ely,
Minnesota.

Edward Crossman, of Ely, Mimi,
owns one of the oldest teams in Amer
lea. He has succeeded in the unusual
task of breaking a pair of moose to
drive in harness. In his buggy Mr..
Crossman spins about as rapidly be-
hind these animals as IL drawn by
n prancing span of horses. Ordinary
RENDERS have long figured in the
mythical doings of Santa Claus, and
are actually driven by the Laplanders
but the moose is a much larger and
different representative of the deer
family, and should not be confused
with the reindeer
These moose shown in the photo
graph were captured at Bear Island
lake, few miles to the southwest Of
Ely, three years ago. The mother
had been killed by an Indian and a
trapper in the vicinity, hearing his
dog barking furiously hurried to the
spot where he found the two moose
calves. Mr.. Crossman bought these
calves from the trapper and secured
permit from the governor to keep
them in his possession.
At first the moose didn't relish be-
hitched up. but, as they are young,
they became accustomed to 1t much
sooner than if they had been full
grown. Their antlers are now grow
ing and, by the time the animals are
five years of age, will be of large size
At first the problem of feeding them
was no small one. When running
wild they live on pond lily roots,
leaves of trees or tender shoots of will
low, and to get the lily roots it is
very common to see them wading in
the shallow water of their native
haunts. At first Mr.. Crossman fed
them willow twigs and young birch,
but this became quite task, for they
required about three wagon loads a
week. To-day they eat hay, turnips
and cabbage, and seem to enjoy the
diet as much as the one to which they
had before been accustomed. One of
these moose will eat as much as two
horses. They nibble at something
most of the time except when lying
down during the middle of the day.
Each weighs about 700 pounds or
Whereabouts. When full-grown their
shoulders will be higher than those of
a horse. Their antlers will then add
materially to their weight, often
weighing from so to 60 pounds. The
moose have coarse brown hair.

landt street, surrounding the old Ben
edict building. The western part will
cover the site of the Coal and Iron
Exchange, at Cortlandt and Church
streets, with frontage in Cortlandt
street of 209 feet and of 103 feet in
Church street. The Broadway en-.
trance will be in Nos. 165 and 1877,
and main corridor 3S feet wide will
run through to Church street, a dis
lance Of 315 feet.
The cost of this pile will be more
than $3,250,000. In line with the
policy of Robert e. Bowling, president
of the City Investing company, to give
to tenants quick and abundant trans
portation facilities, the building will
have Fl elevators.
1t is probable that the building will
have an entrance to the McAdoo tun-
mel, which will come up to Church
street, under Cortlandt street, and
will turn north under the south side
of that thoroughfare. This has not
yet been decided upon.
In style of architecture the building
will be what is technically known as
free Italian. The adoption Of this
type of architecture has given the
architect, Francis H. Kimball, an OPP
portunity to produce structure
whose massive appearance will be i'm
posing.

THE MAJESTY OF THE LAW
Not Essential to the Drawing Of an
Understandable
Will.

Every man who has ever tried to guess
one of those conundrums known as in
surance policies, or who has ever at
tempted to translate into intelligent
English any legal document, with all its
whereases and its herebys and its afore-
saids, will appreciate the sentiments of
Deacon Elphonzo Youngs, of Washing
ton, who, when making his will, bark
ened to the lawyers opening paragraph,
and then exclaimed:
Rats! all there is about this is that
at my death want by ever-faithful and
devoted wife, Amelia, to have and con-
troll everything l possess"
If that will would not hold in law,
says the Four-Track News-there be-
ing no possible room for doubt as to the
intent thereof-the fault is with the law,
not the will.

BR|TA|N'S ELEPHANTS
WEALTH OF THE EMPIRE IN

They Are Located in India and Africa

trial Enterprises-Three In

What with the wealth of India and
Africa Great Britain possesses more
elephants than any other power in
the world. The Indian elephant diff
fers very considerably from the Afri-
can in several points, notably in the
size of the ears, which are much
smaller than the Africans. Again,
the African has an arched forehead
while that of the Indian is concave.
While the Indian males are about ten
feet at the shoulder the African males
are a foot higher The prince of
Wales recently had the opportunity
Of seeing in the famous MacGregor
timber yards at Rangoon to what a
pitch of usefulness the elephant can
be trained in moving large logs of
wood. His intelligence at his work

WAS WEAK AND DIZZY
Or. Williams Pink Pills Restored tho
Patient to Perfect Health
And Strength.

Mrs. Mary Gagner, of No. 57e South
Summer street, Holyoke, Mass, has
passed through an experience which
proves that some Of the greatest bless
ings of life may lie within easy reach
and yet be found only by mere chance.
A few years ago while she was employed
in the mills she was suddenly seized
with dizziness and great weakness. II
was so weak ut times" she says, "that
l could hardly stand, and my head be-
came so dizzy that it seemed as If the
door was moving around.
"My condition at last became so bad
that was obliged to give up work in the
mill, aud later still became 80 feebly
that could not even attend to me
household duties. After the slightest
exertion / had to lie down and rest until
l regained strength.
"a friend who had used DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People urged me to
try them. l bought box and began to
take them. The benefit was so positive
and so quickly evident that / continued
to use the pills until had taken alto !
gether six boxes. BY that time / was
entirely cured, and for two years have
had no return of my trouble. am now
In the best Of health and able to attend
to all my duties. lam glad to aclnowl-
edge the benefit l received and / hope
that my statement may be the means OF
inducing others who may suffer i'll this
way to try this wonderful medicine"
The secret of the power of DR.. Will
hams' Pink Pills in cases of debility,
such as Mrs Gagner's lies in the fact
that they make new blood, and every or
gan and even every tiny nerve in the
body feels the stir of new tide Of
strength.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 90 cents per box, six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

Crime Still Went On.

A French writer, in Illustrating the
advantages of a representative sys-
tenn Of government, says: "Such is
the respect of the English for their
parliament that, when it is sitting.
crimes are exceedingly rare, but as
soon as it rises the papers are filed
with accounts of the most horrible
atrocities" He did not know that
when parliament was sitting, the
newspapers had no room for much
of anything but its reports.

its body assumes the upright position,
as in the picture. Its tail is short and
stubby, and has that peculiar wag
such as only the duck can give it, and
its legs and feet resemble those of a
duck, though the feet lack a web.
When it tries to cackle it makes a
sound which is seemingly a mixture
of cackle and quack. 1t eats from
the ground like duck and drinks
great amount of water. AS yet the
freak has not laid an egg or essayed
to swim, and these may determine
later to which family it belongs.

PUT MONEY TO GOOD USE
Not Enough in the Office, So the Can
didate Bought Himself
Farm.

In small Indiana town there is an
officer designated as inspector of
streets and roadways, who receives the
munificent salary of $3.50 per year.
There was a lively campaign for this
small plum not long ago, no other
elections being near. The Democratic
candidate was an old fellow by the
name of Ezekiel Hicks, and it looked
as though he would be successful, as
a neat little sum had been subscribed
and turned over to him as a campaign
fund. To the establishment of every
body, however, he waS defeated. 81

cratic leaders said, gIcomil~ with
that money we should have won. How
did you lay it out, Ezekiel" Hum !"
Ezekiel said, slowly pulling his whis-
kerr yer see, that Office only pays $3.50
a year salary, an / didn't see no sense
in payin' 5000 out to get the Office, so
jest bought me little truck farm
instead"

CONFERENCE ON STATEHOOD.
Two Important Conclusions Reached
by Conferees.

WASHINGTON-Two important con.
clusions were reached by the state
hood conferees Thursday. One settles
the school lands question and the other
makes the present registration districts
temporary counties for the purpose of
court jurisdiction during the forma-
ton of the new state and the erection
of permanent county boundaries.
AS to the school lands, the Warren
amendment voted on by the senate pro-
vided that where school lands were
found to be mineral lands, lieu selec-
lions should be made. The substitute
agreed upon provided in substance that
the state may lease its mineral school
lands and shall thus not be deprived
of their greater value.

that he had only eleven days rations
on hand, that the army could not fur
nish an ounce of food beyond that al
ready purchased or in sight and that
the feeding of the people is problem
which demands immediate attention.
After considerable discussion the com
mittee decided to have summing up
Of resources and needs. Following this
1t is possible that an appeal for sup

Henpecked Men in India.

Henpecked husbands are found even
in India. A writer says: "To live as
have done in a Hindoo house, espe-
cially when the real house mistress is
a masterful and deeply religious wild
ow, who is grandmother to the babies
and mother to their parents, is nc
longer to wonder at the absolute ter
ror with which men speak of the stri-
achchar.' For the men of India are
poor souls!-the most henpecked in

A Trained Nurse Discovered It's
Effect.
No one is in better position to know
the value of food and drink than a
trained nurse.
Speaking of coffee nurse of Wilkes
Barre, Pa, writes: II used to drink
strong coffee myself and suffered great
ly from headaches and indigestion.
While on a visit to my brothers had
good chance to try Postum Food
Coffee, for they drank 1t altogether in
place OF ordinary coffee. In two weeks,
after using Postum, found was
much benefited and finally my head
aches disappeared and also the indi-
gestion.
Naturally I have since used Postum
among my patients, and have noticed
marked benefit where coffee has been
left of and Postum used.
II observe a curious fact about Post
UNI used among mothers. 1t greatly
helps the flow of milk in cases where
coffee is inclined to dry it up, and
where tea causes nervousness.
Il find trouble in getting servants to
make Postum properly. They most al
ways serve It before it has been boiled
long enough. It should be boiled Is or
20 minutes and served with cream,
when 1t is certainly delicious bever-
kge."
"TheFs's a reason" for Postum.

Women in China have the privilege
of fighting in the wars. In the rebel.
lion of 1850 women did as much fight
ing as the men. At Nankin, in 1858,
100000 women, from various parts of
the country were formed into brigades
of $4,000 each, under female officers.
OF these soldiers, 10000 were picked
