PROSPER O u S
YEAR is
CERTAIN

Chicago. Ill, Aug. Another
year of prosperity from the trathc
standpoint has just been opened for
the American railroads. This seems
to be the unanimous opinion of the
men at the head of the traffic de-
partments of the several systems. 1t
is founded not on mere surmise or
guesswork, but on careful and thou
ghtful investigation OF crop condi-
tions and on the commercial and in
dustrial activity as it is affected by
these conditions.
Prospects have improved very
much the last few weeks" said J. T.
Harahan, president of the Illinois
Central railroad, "and / am now quite
hopeful that we are going to have a
satisfactory year.
The crops are going to turn out
much better than at one time was eX-
pected. Cotton is making fine ap-
pearance and is in splendid condition,
| now believe we will have a large cot
ton crop. In Iowa small grains have
turned out to be fair crop, and the
same state is true in Illinois. Winter
wheat in this state turned out very
well.
Throughout the entire territory
tributary to our lines business con-
tinues good and 1 am beginning to be-
lieve that it will remain so through
out the year, so that l believe there is
now reasonable grounds for being op-
timistic. At all events we are now
handling a much larger tonnage than
at this time last year. Gross earn
ings for June and July showed a
large increase over those of the same
months last year.
Conditions in the money market
have interfered materially with the
carrying out of the plans of many of
the roads in regard to an increase of
trackage and other facilities for the
lexpeditious handling of traffic.
Some good results have followed
the efforts put forth by the American
Railroad association to bring about
such conditions as will enable the
roads to get more service out of their
/ equipment, still there is great room
for further improvement in that di'
rection."

William G. Struthers and NJ. F.
Fredericks arrived home today at
noon from their great tour of the east
which tour included visits to many of
the largest American cities and points
of interest. These two gentlemen,
with Z. w Brunner who reached
home last night and Jack II. Gallupe
who passed from earthly life at an
early hour this morning, formed the
Grand Junction delegation to the
National Elks convention in Phila-
delphia. The three gentlemen who
have just returned home and who
parted with Mr.. Gallupe only a few
days ago were shocked terribly by the
announcement of the death of their
friend and fellow traveller. The death
of Mr.. Gallupe detracts greatly from
the pleasant memories of the extern
siye pleasure trip.

The two prisoners were released
from the city jail last night for the
simple reason that officers Patter-
son and Wharton, who made the ar
rests, did not appear in court yes
terday morning and file a complaint
against the offenders as is their duty
Although ordered to always appear at
the early morning session of the po-
lice court and file complaint against
any person or persons that they might
arrest during the night, the two reg
ular night officers have been very
stubborn about doing SO and on a
number of occasions the offenders
arrested during the night have had to
lay in Jail until the next afternoon
before they could get a hearing in
the courts although the law does not
in the strictest sense permit of any
such proceedings. A man arrested on
the drunk and disorderly charge or
for some offense of a similar import
ance has a right to an early hearing.
He shall not be kept in jail for many
hours before having a hearing, sim
ply to accommodate some police Of
ficer who desires to sleep.
Police court is held at eight O'Clock
each morning or even earlier if ne
cessary and there is no logical rea-
up and making an appearance for a
few minutes at the court.
Chief of Police O'Neil was natural
ly very indignant yesterday at the
failure of the night officer or officers
who made the arrests on the night
before, to appear and file a complaint
yesterday morning. He declared that
he had no right to hold the two Of
tenders any longer than yesterday af-
ternoon without placing the city in
jeopardy and therefore he released
them at six o'clock. Some time later,
or when they came on duty for the
night, the night officers, appeared to
file the complaints but they had de-
layed too long, and law breakers were
free.
1t is understood that some time ago
when there was a difficulty over the
same state of affairs and when one of
the officers declared he would not
stay up in the morning to make com
plants that the mayor informed him
that if he wouldn't then he had better
hand in his resignation as there were
plenty of good men who would per-
form that duty of the office.

Philip was now well dressed, according

He had forgotten to buy a necktie

omissions he now rectifed, and he also
purchased a warm, dark gray travelling
rug, several yards of drugget, ball of
Irvine and a pair Of scissors. A couple
of stout but worn leather portmanteaus

effected, he hurried off to Johnson's

portmanteaus were packed with pieces
Of the meteor and the paper covered
parcels already prepared. When each
bag weighed about forty pounds he
stuffed the remaining space with rolled
up newspapers, closed and locked them.
He estimated that three larger leather
bags, these being less noisy than tin,
would hold the remainder of the me-
teor
AS the next morning would find him
occupation enough, he decided to do as
much as possible that night. Three
with q good sized valise. He paid
prices varying from e. los. to f3 los.
and always bought secondhand goods.
He had locked and strapped the
fourth of his goodly array of travelling
bags when h. fancied he heard foot
step in the news. Such an occurrence
would have troubled him not jot
week ago. Tonight it was extremely
disconcerting
Notwithstanding the weight Of the
packed portmanteaus, especially the
larger one, he lifted each bodily in his
arms and ran with It into the tiny
Bcullery. On the front window there
was no blind, only small, much worn
curtain covering the lower panes, and
he did not want any stray loafer to
gaze in at him and discover a large
quantity of luggage in such disrepu
table hovel.
When the fourth bag was disposed
of in the dark recess of the scullery he
paused for an instant to listen. There
was not sound. Through the window
he could dimly discern the roof of the
deserted stables opposite.
He bent again to the task of packing
the fifth portmanteau and was placing
in it the last parcel of ore and dia-
monds when some Of the heavy con-
tents fell through one end where the
drugget wrapping had been hastily
folded.
Shaking the package on the floor as
a grocer beats down the contents of
sugar bag, he picked up the fallen speci-
mems and put them in, one by one. a
large lump Of Gre had fallen apart
when it dropped. Inside there was
huge kernel, rough diamond quite as
large as n hens egg.
Philip smiled as he recalled his boast
to Isaacstein. He examined the stone
critically and realized that If it were
fiawless it must be one of the marvels
of creation. Without experiencing any
positive motive he slipped this unique
specimen into his pocket and went on
with the reconstruction of the damaged
parcel.
At last he finished. The portman-
teau was lying open on the floor when
the thought occurred to him that he
might have avoided the furry and trou-
BILE of carrying these heavy articles
into the scullery If he had nailed cou-
pie of yards of his drugget across the
window.
1t was not too late even now to recti-
fy this defect He glanced at the win
dow to ascertain how much material he
should cut off and saw a face-an evil,
brutal, suspicious face-peering in at
him over the top Of the curtain.

Teller goes on to say that because OF
the administration, "that has reports
every five minutes of new actions and
of heavy fines, the country is already
beginning to drift toward the rocks OF
financial depression" He said that
confidence was gone and that conf
dence was the basis of all prosperity.
The present condition of business he
found reflected in the attitude of the
borrowers toward himself Whereas
before he was given only one chance
to enter into various syndicates, now
they would give him time to think it
over; also, he said he was offered the
unprecedented interest of per cent
for $1,0O0,000, 100000 or $3,OOOO00
loans on gilt edged security. All this,
he said, was of no great moment to
him, as he was through with business,
and loss or gain no longer affected him.

FORGET YOURSELF.
Ne Ono Caa Grow While His
Thoughts Are Self Conferred.


Thoughts Are Self Centered.
Forget yourself You will never do
anything great until you do Self con-
sciousness is disease with many.
No matter what they do, they can new
er get away from themselves. They
become warped upon the subject OF
self analysis, wondering how they
look, how they appear, what others
will think Of them and how they can
enhance their own interests. In other
words, every thought and every effort
seems to focus upon self; nothing radi-
ates from them
No one can grow while his thoughts
are self centered. The sympathies of
the man who thinks only Of himself
are soon dried up. Self consciousness
acts as paralysis to all expansion,
strangles enlargement, kills aspiration,
cripples executive ability. The mind
which accomplishes things looks out,
not In: it is focused upon It's object,
not upon itself.
The immortal acts have been uncon-
sciously performed. The greatest pray
ers have been the silent longings, the
secret yearnings Of the heart, not those
which have been delivered facing q
critical audience. The daily desire Is
the perpetual prayer, the prayer that
Is heard and answered.-SuccesS.
