Hartman Lines to Become Floral

Executive officers of the Union Pa
cif1c road in Chicago are planning to
build several large greenhouses along
the main lines of this company in
Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah and other
districts, with the object of having
at every table in every dining car
over the entire system a bouquet of
freshly cut flowers at every meal. In
addition to table and other decora-
lions it is planned to grow flowers
on scale sufficiently large to allow
free distribution of roses to women
and carnations, or other seasonable
flower, not only in dining cars but
to passengers in every car of every
train, and in winter as well as in
summer, the idea being to make
patrons feel that the flowers are a
part of the trip over this road and
not precious little souvenirs. The
greenhouses will probably be located
at Grand Island. Neb., Cheyenne.
Wyo., Denver, Col, and Ogden, Utah.
In California and in the territory of
the Sunset route in the south the
company has no trouble in getting
outdoor flowers all year. But even in
these districts the scheme of flowers
for passengers and car decorations is
to be enlarged upon. Dining rooms
along all lines are to be supplied free
ly with plants and blooms. The Cali
fornia and southern resources with
the greenhouses to be built along the
central route will put the Union,
Southern Pacific and Oregon Short
Lines in a position where they may
become known as the floral lines, an
appellation officers of the Hartman
lines hope to merit.

No One Wanted Box 10.

IN no other western European coun-
try is superstition so prevalent as IT
Austria-Hungary. Quite recently the
chamberlain's Office changed the num-
Der of box 13 in the Imperial opera
house and the Imperial Court theater
to la, because the public objected to
sitting in a box bearing this unlucky
number. None of the rich subscribers
who takes a box for the year wanted
No. IS, and for single performances it
was just as hard to dispose of.
This superstition reaches its height
in medicine. Speaking at the health
exhibition, DR.. Heinrich Grun declared
that in many instances superstition,
and especially local superstition, was
an absolute menace to public health.
In the Austrian hospitals one finds
no block or pavilion 10, no ward ID,
no staircase 13. Very few patients
will consent to be operated upon on
the thirteenth day of the month. and
in this respect Friday. too, is consid-
cred just as unlucky. At Carlsbad,
Marienbad, Gastein and other famous
Austrian cure resorts nobody wants
to begin his cure on Friday.

Beattyville, Ky.-The jury in the
Hargis-Callahan trial returned a YER
dict of nuot guilty in short order
after one of the most desperately
fought battles in Kentucky court
for years. Judge James Hargis and
Edward Callahan were charged with
the murder of ]. B. Marcum.
Curtis Jet, who was brought here
from the Frankfort penitentiary, testi-
fled that he killed Marcum.
The verdict of not guilty is the
elimination of a long and bitter fight
in courts in an attempt to convict
James Hargis and Ed Callahan as
chief conspirators in one of the dark
est crimes in Kentucky history.
James B. Marcum was a mountain
Republican lawyer of excellent stand
ing. He was engaged three years ago
as an attorney in the contest against
Hargis and Callahan, respectively
Democratic judge and sheriff-elect, to
GUST them from their offices on an
allegation of corrupt election. Much
bitterness was aroused and frequent
open ruptures occurred.
Killed at Jackson.
In May, 1903 Marcum was shot to
death from behind in the Jackson
White were convicted and sentenced
to life Imprisonment for the murder.
1t was charged that they were the
tools of Callahan, Hargis and others.
Jet, after his conviction, confessed
that he shot Marcum and that his
act was inspired by Callahan and
Hargis. On the witness stand, how
ever, he repudiated the confession
and said he alone was responsible.
The acquittal followed largely on this
reputation.
A jury of Clark county citizens re-
turned a verdict for $4,000 damages
a year ago against Hargis on the al
legation that he had caused Marcum
to be killed. The suit was filed by
Mrs. Marcum. Hargis and Callahan
are yet to be tried in the Lexington
court for the killing of James Cock
rell under similar circumstances.
Ewing Star Witness.
B. ]. Ewing, who was standing in
the courthouse door talking with
]. B. Marcum when the latter was
murdered by Curtis Jet and Tom"
White, was the star witness for the
commonwealth at the trial of Hargis
and Callahan. Ewing was a. deputy
sheriff under Callahan and a close
and trusted friend of Judge Hargis.
He said Judge Hargis was confidential
with him and told him of many of
his troubles and ambitions. He said

day sauntered into police court just
as case was called. Itsappeared that

said, wishing to pass away the time.

PRISON TRUCK FARM

Jefferson City, Mo.-Warden Matt
". Hall, of the Missouri penitentiary,
is gardener on quite an extensive
scale. This year he has devoted a
part of the state farm, located just
east of the prison, to garden truck,
and is just beginning to realize some
of the results that follow careful and
intelligent til1ing of the soil, in the
way of palatable and healthy addi-
lions to the prison menu, and at a
minimum of expense to the state
The farm is in charge of John
Bruner, who works several convicts
in caring for the place Just now the
snap bean" crop is in full bearing.
The bean patch covers several acres
of ground. and the crop on the state
farm is unusually prolific.
The soil on top of the hill seems
to be especially adapted to the bean,
and there will be several ''meSSes
for all hands in the warden's family of
$500 persons.
Some idea of what it takes to go
round in the prison is gained when it
is known that it requires as bushels
of snap beans for one meal. Recently
that amount of beans was turned over
to the prison kitchen, and it required
all of it to give each convict all the
beans he could eat Several hundred
pounds of bacon were required to
cook them properly and give the right
flavor.
Radishes were grown in great guam
titles earlier in the season, and onions
have been served several times from
the farm. There is a great quantity
of the onions still in the ground

For an officially dead man, Henry
Pancoast, a local liveryman, manages
to enjoy his meals and surroundings
fairly well; and his is one of the odd
est of records. Pancoast enlisted in
the civil war from Atlantic county and
was discharged from the lexington
hospital, Washington, D. c., on Janu-
airy z, 1868. Somehow the dates got
mixed, and he was reported as dead
by the surgeon, and so the records
state to-day. It took him 20 years to
prove he was alive enough to get a
pension
For 81 years Pancoast has been in
the livery business here, and during
that time he has never entered a
church, never attended a circus, never
was in the local opera house or attend
ed any amusement whatever, and
never went to a Fourth of July ce1e-
bration. The only place of entertain
ment he has visited was a reunion of

Nothing Succeeds Like seEaG-o-sEE.' -

The man who breaches the best SER
non; the man who tells the funniest
stories; the man who keeps the best
store; or the man who makes the best
goods soon finds that people come to
him. Merit is the best advertisement
in the world. People speak well of
things they know are good. They pass
the good word along.
The best breakfast food is EGG-O-
SEE, for it contains all the ife-giving
properties of natures best food, which
is wheat.
EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the
thousands of wives and mothers who
use it in their homes, for these good
women tell their neighbors about this
great food.
Children and aged persons alike are
friends of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are the
things that advertise EGG-O-SEE
most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10
cent package contains ten liberal
breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold every
where. Grocers must keep it if they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist on buying
EGG-O-SEE.
The fact that no preparation, no
cooking is required, makes EGG-O-
SEE very popular. Open the package;
put as much as you like in a dish;
pour on milk or cream and eat. 1t
is delicious. 1t is wholesome. 1t

the reply. These cabbageS will aver
age perhaps two pounds to the head,
so it will be observed that several
thousand pounds of raw material en-
tiers into the problem of providing the
prison population with the one item
of little cold slaw for their holiday
dinner.
The cabbage patch on the state
farm includes $4,000 growing plants,
and the crop is f1ourishing, but big as
the patch is a few rounds of cold
slaw" will make heavy inroads on it,
There are several acres of potatoes,
a roasting ear patch of two or three
acres, but the browning glory of the
big garden is the tomato field, where
there are $4,000 or $4,000 f1ourishing
plants growing that give promise of a
great yield of this most delightful
of all vegetables.
Some of the vines are loaded with
tomatoes that will be ready for use
in a few weeks, while others have just
reached the blooming stage. If moth
ing happens to injure the vines there
will be an abundance of this crop, for
the vines will continue to produce un-
til frost kills them
Warden Hall and Mr.. Bruner figure
that after the season is over they will
have unripe tomatoes enough on hand
when the frost comes to make several
hogsheads of chochow.
1t is worth a trip to the state farm
to see the gardening on large scale
that Warden Hall has inaugurated.
His theory is that whatever expense
is involved in growing the vegetables
for use of the convicts is more than
offset by the diminution of the sick
list.
The land has deteriorated somewhat
during the last few years. when it
was leased by the state to private in
dividuals. and Mr. Hall will by sys-
tematic effort seek to build it up and
restore it to a high degree of produc-
tiveness To this end much of it will
be sown in cowpeas this summer. and
this will be turned under early in the
fall.

DIDN'T BELIEVE
That Coffee Was the Real Trouble.

Some people founder around and
take everything that's recommended
but finally find that coffee is the real
cause of their troubles. An Oregon
man says:
For rs years I was troubled with
my stomach. I was a steady coffee
drinker, but didn't suspect that as
the cause. I took almost anything
which someone else had been cured
with but to no good. I was very bad
last summer and could not work at
times.
ION Dec. 2, 1902, was taken so
bad the doctor said 1 could not live
over "a hours at the most, and 1
made all preparations to die. 1 could
hardly eat anything, everything dis
tressed me, and 1 was weak and sick
all over. When in that condition cot
fee was abandoned and was put on
Postum, the change in my feelings
came quickly after the drink that was
poisoning me was removed
The pain and sickness fell away
from me and 1 began to get well day
by day, SO I stuck to it until now /
am we'll and strong again, can eat
heartily, with no headache, heart
trouble or the awful sickness of the
old coffee days. 1 drink all wish of
Postum without any harm and enjoy
it immensely.
This seems like a strong story,
but 1 would refer you to the First
Natl Bank, the Trust Banking Com
pany, or any merchant of Grants
Pass, Ore, in regard to my standing,
and I will send a sworn statement
of this If you WISH You can also use
