SHEEP SHRINK IN TRANSIT.
Shippers Complain of Poor Transp0r.
tatiOn Service.

Western shippers are complaining,
and evidently not without cause, of
poor railroad service. says the Shep-
herds Bulletin. The amendment of the
2S-hour law was looked forward to
ms the pancea for all transportation
ills. But the good effects of this
amendment can very easily be nulli-
fled. An Idaho shipper recently stat
ed at Chicago that he got poorer trans
portation service this season than for
many years past.
Another expressed the opinion that
the money lost through shrinkage of
sheep and lambs coming from the
west would build a railroad and equip
1t for efficient service. When trains
drag along like a wounded snake, II
takes so much time to cover any rea-
sonable distance that the sheep have
to be unloaded twice as often as is
necessary and in many places where
there Is no accommodation for them.
Without proper facilities for feeding
and watering at unloading points, 1t
Is easy to understand that many MEM
bers of a big band will sucGurnb. while
the loss from shrinkage Will, in itself,
be equivalent to the loss of many
sheep.

ra supported the family out of her
meager money and still she was able

BACK TO POINT Iona.
Theosophist Deserts Family to Rejoin
Mrs. Tingley's Colony.

Denver, Oct. 23.-Nahum Wing, the
local freight solicitor of the Southern
Pacific Railway company, whose dis
appearance from his home at 1906
Columbine street on September last,
created a sensation in Denver, is be-
lieved to be an inmate of Katherine
Tingley's Theosophical institution at
Point Iona. below San Diego, Cal.
Before coming to Denver, it is said,
he was a member of the cult and the
community. In a desire to test the
strength of his faith, he secured per-
mission to leave for time. He mar
ried, became the head of a family,
secured a home and a good position.
Then, thoroughly satisfied with his
strength, he left wife, child, home and
friends, and went back to Point Iona.
So it is believed.
Search by the proper authorities will
find him there. is the firm belief of
a former prominent Theosophist, now
of this city, who spent some time be-
fore her marriage at the institution.

Mr.. Robert Whiteley of Pittsburg,

chronic stomach trouble and terrible
nervousness; she was thin, ami had
| a worn out look. Doctors, after great

change in her condition seemed almost
! miraculous. She continued its use,
! and today she Is in perfect health frd
has gained 80 pounds-her friends
hardly know her so great is the
change. To vinol we give all the
| praise, and everywhere l recommend
your Vinol, as I have more faith in 1t
than I have in doctors or any other
medicine"
a member of the Pendieton Drug
company says: "Vinol Is successful in
cases like this because II contains in a

properties contained in cod liver oil,

The Junction City Development
league held an important meeting
Tuesday to take action in regard to
the building of the gap between juno

Times. This line Of some % miles
was surveyed and the right of way
secured some 25 years ago and the
action Of the league was to take steps
toward inducing the Southern Pacific
to build and equip this road. Peti-
tions were gotten up and will be cir

culated over the north part of the
county, and also southern Benton
county, setting forth the advantages
and the need of this road.
1t is to be hoped the Southern Pa
cific will take action on this matter
or else surrender this valuable terri
tory. There is not strip of road in
the state as easy to build, as it is level
the entire distance and from a rail-
road standpoint the cost of construc-
