Avery c. Hilton, Pacific coast agent

The Pennsylvania road has adopted
plans for a unique depot for New York
city. 1t will cover two entire blocks.
The base of the station will be forty
feet below the surface of the earth,

the building will be $50 feet above the
ground and will be used for office build
ings.
The Southwestern Passenger assocIa-
ton has decided that each line shall
run but one excursion each year on ac-
count of the complaints by the mer-
chants that pleasure trips take the men
from their work. Freight business is
considered of more value than passen-

AS a sad ending to a nights festiv

hospital with several broken ribs, while
his wife's body is at Breese Bros un-

The elderly couple lived at Miles on

Wornan's Trials.

The bitter trail in woman's life is to
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The alb
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection Is common dlsap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estra nged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
OF such a childless couple when they rest
on the children OF others. To them the
largest family y does not seem too numerous.
In many cases of barrenness or child
lessness the obstacle to child bearing Is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorlte Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulneSs to many
q barren woman, to the great Joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
been found to be OF a surgical character,

BREAKS WINDOW WITH BELL
Woman Resents Being TckIed and
Throws Missile at Boy

EMPLOYEES of the Rock Island road
congratulated themselves yesterday on
the historical accuracy of woman's
aim. Occasionally they looked at the
big globe in the front window. of which
they are so proud, to assure themselves
that it was still there. Anyone of them
was able to tell a story that would fill
a book, which should bear on its title
page: $50 Near and Yet So Far"
1t would be a task that no writer
could execute to tell the story that was
repeated in the little office on South
Spring street yesterday as to how near
the 5000 sign in the window came to be-
ing destroyed.
Several of the employees gathered in
front of the office on Tuesday night
to see the electrical parade. They looked
down upon the crowd from the chairs
and boxes upon which they were stand
ing and enjoyed themselves until one of
them, not yet out of his teens. saw a
woman passing him who was carrying
a COW bell in her hand. In boyish fun
he tickled her under the chin with a
feather duster.
The woman failed to see the joke and
with anger rising, threw the bell at him
with all her might. Had her aim been
within three feet of him the bell would
have struck the large window sign, but
luckily it was very bad and the mis-
S1le struck S1ue WINDOW, -DredhlnS d
large hole in it. The bell is kept in
the office as a souvenir and the en-
ployes say that the woman may have
the property that she so hastily deserted
If she will call for it when the owner
of the building is present.
The large globe representing the
Rock Island road and it's connections
was painted on the front window in
1908 The work was done by two paint
ers from New York city, who painted
these signs for the company in all Of
the large cities where it has offices.
During the time the sign was being
put on it attracted a great deal of at
tention and the street was almost
blockaded in front of the office by
the curious people The painters did
their work from the inside, having
a large mirror hung in front of the
window to guide their hands.

DETECTIVES SAY
WOMAN ELOPED
MRS. ALGERIA BELIEVED TO
BE WITH ADMIRER
Officers Who Have Worked Constantly
on Disappearance Case Do Not
Support Husbands Theory
of Suicide

Sensational developments in the case
of Mrs. Mary Algeria, believed to have
been murdered, came to light yesterday.
Headquarters detectives claimed that
they had absolute information that
Mrs. Algeria is living in northern Cali
fornia.
Detective Talamantes said yesterda V
afternoon that he had positive proof
that Mrs. Algeria left her home, Alb
Lake Shore avenue, on the night of
April 80 and went north the next day.
L is claimed that Mrs. Algeria has
been seen in a city not far from San
Francisco and she is said to be happy
and well.
The husband William Algeria, be-
lieved that his young wife committed
suicide and asked the police to drag
Echo park lake for the body
This theory was followed by the de-
tectives and found to be without foun-
dation.
Later evidence pointing to murder
was discovered. The police say it
was learned that an unidentified man
met Mrs. Algeria that night shortly
after Q o'clock and the two went away
together
Detectives Follow Clews
Detectives have been working on the
case ana yesterday afternoon an
nounced that it was positively learned
that Mrs. Algeria left her husband in
tentionally and was living far away,
they believe, with another man.
The name of her friend was not fur
nished and the place of residence was
not given out.
1t is claimed by the police that Ale
gria and his pretty young wife fire.
quently quarreled.
Mrs Algeria complained to several
of her friends about her treatment and,
it is suspected, limited at her sudden
departure. Mrs. B. S. Weeks, a next
door neighbor told the police that Mrs.
Algeria complained of her treatment
at the house and mentioned quarrels
with her husbond.
While this story of Mrs. Alegria's S
elopement is believed by the police, the
grief-stricken husband still mourns for
his wife as dead. He still believes that
she drowned herself and he cannot be
brought to comprehend that Mary could
have forsaken him.
Time and time again he has sought
the police, urging them to follow some
fresh clew.
He has interested all the neighbors
and has visited all his wifes relatives
in other cities
The police say that the disappeara nee
is closed incident, but William Algeria
will never give up the idea that his
wife is dead.

NEW ROAD ISSUES SCHEDULE
Gives interesting Talk on Formation
of Country Near Jonnie

The time table for the Las Vegas &
Tonopah road, which is now operating
between Las Vegas and Jonnie, has
just been issued. Two mixed trains,
No. 10 and No. II, are run each way
over the seventy-four and a half miles
of track. Only first class tickets and
passes are honored.
Operators and agents are kept only
at the present terminals, but there are
four or five stations along the route.
Passengers are charged six cents mile
for passage between intermediate sta
tions, Through transportation is
cheaper.
Professor James Stirling, a noted
geologist, recently gave an interesting
description of the formation of The
country around Jonnie before the Cal
ifornia Academy of Science. In part he
said:
1.-THE Jonnie consolidated group of
mines are situated at an altitude OF
about $500 feet above the sea level on a
spur trending westerly from the SpriCg
der of Lincoln and Nye counties,
Nevada. At this locality a series uf
somewhat cone-shaped peaks mark the
course of the watershed dividing the
Pahrump and Las Vegas valleys.
1.-THE range eliminates to the south
in high mountain peak at an altitude
of 1884 feet above sea level, known
as Mount Charleston which is covered
with snow for many months in the
year. The western slopes of the Spring
mountain range are crossed by bands
of quartzite forming bluffy outcrops,
and the lateral spurs at lower levels
into the gently sloping surfa ces of the
tertiary deposits of the adjacent val
leys."

RIVALS CLASH AT PROVO
Salt Lake and Rio Grande Have
Trouble Over Spur

The Salt Lake and the Denver & Rio
Grande rave been HAVING a lively time
at Provo over the extension of a spur
track on Sixth street, which is used
by both lines in delivering freight.
Last week the Salt Lake began to
extend the track under the cover of
darkness. In the morning about 100 feet
of track was laid. When the ID. & r. G..
officials became aware of the action of
the other road, they ran a freight train
to the end of the siding and blocked
the Salt Lake employees from getting
any more material over the tracks.
Both sides kept busy. The Salt Lake
employees kept laying track with the
material that had been scattered out
and the ID. & r. G. tore it up. No vio-
lence was indulged In.
The officials decided that nothing
could be gained by fighting, for both
roads have equal rights under the
franchise. The result Of a conference
was the decision to build a joint ex-
tension.
