Because certain railroads have re-
Gently passed or cut down their Gus
tomary dividends, it must not be in
ferred that our good times are over.
In most cases it means that great
traffic demands require heavy invest

interest rates are too high for the
companies to go out into the market

ILLINOIS TWO
 CENT RATE

Chicago, July 1.-Illinois two-cent passenger rate law becomes effective today on all roads within the state. AS result of the law, the railroads have withdrawn all the special rates heretofore granted to convention de!- egates, clergymen, agents of charita- ble institutions and attendants al merchants conventions. The validity of the law will likely be attacked in the courts, the general contention of the railway officials being that the population is inadequate to support the passenger department on two cent basis. An effort will be made to show that in Illinois, the most popu- leus of western states. the greater portion of the opulaton-Chicago ,rFbanites-already enjoys rate of less than two cents mile.

eral down-townsaM u cheaper than he can board his horse at a liv- cry stable in Pine Bluff. Beginning today it will cost several dollars more month for the care of each head of stock -in Pine Bluff livery stable.
 Some local 1iverymen have an- nounced that they would advance the rate several dollars a month, and a prominent liveryman gave out the following, when approached on this subject:
 "Force-of circumstances compel an stock in my stable. Within the past 12 months the price on feed stuffs has advanced 50 per cent, while 15 per cent has been the greatest in- crease in the cost of boarding stock at any stable.
 'I had hoped for decline in prices during this time, but in vain, and within the past three months have been grooming boarding horses at an actual loss. I therefore notified my patrons that the price of boarding for a horse would be increased 10 per cent l regret this step, but in self defense am compelled to make this advance"
 "I tell you, I am losing money It the present rate. Hay is from SIS 1 to $22 instead of SIP or $13, as it 1 should be, and oats has scared from 40 to 57 cents.
 Kick? Well, yes, of course, the 1 owners will kick worse than the | mules and horses, but let them try 1t themselves. They will find that the present rate is very reasonable after they have hired a boy and bought feed for time."

J Eome, July All of the tele-

 an exchanges have been purchased

Salaries will be higher than those paid by the pir- Iate corporations, which have led 0 much complaint, and to the mea- ,erness of which has been attributed he deficiencies in the service. Prices of service will not be reduced at although a reduction will likely be made later on. The present ate in Rome is not unusually high, oeing only about $34 year for the ordinary subscriber. It is believ- I'd that numerous improvements will )e effected by the government in | short time, as was the case in service during the two rears of state management.

Why Don't You Ask For What You Want

As long as you buy cigars in the old indifferent guess-work way of taking whatever is handed out to you-just so long will you pay for fre- quent disappointments.
 Why don't you ask for what you want?
 Don't guess which is the best cigar-and don't let anyone guess for you.
 You can be sure. The better kinds of cigars are all dstinguishable by the Triangle A" mark of merit on the box
 Triangle A" brands are unmistakably superior in all smoking qualities-in aromatic fragrance, smooth, uniform blend and absolute cleanness-t cigars made the old way and Triangle A" brands are the omly cigars made the new way.
 There are many Triangle A" brands of many different names, different blends, diff ferent shapes and different prices to suit different tastes. The Triangle A" is guarantee that covers them all-it distinguishes the superior product of our new scientific manufacturing methods. -
 No better proof of our claims could be offered than is found in the wonderfully improved quality of
 7he Mew CREM0 which represents the best quality that can be produced and sold for five cents-it proue3 every claim we make for cigars sold under the "Triangle A."
 Every box is exa-wrapped in glassine paper, sealed to maintain perfect smoking condition and cleanliness until the box is opened.

INCIDENTS
The old Congregational church,
built in 1856, and the oldest church
edifice in the village, as it was thus
suddenly wrecked in sight of it's
pastor and most of its attendants, sad l.
ly wrenched many hearts in it's de-
struction. Women wept, and strong
men hardly controlled their feelings as
they bade the sacred edifice good bye.
Within two or three years, the So
ciety, mainly by the efforts of the
ladies, who have worked with heart
and hand, have struggled hravely with
adverse fortune, and fortunate in a
pastor of unusual ability, energy and
wise business tact, have almost ex.
tinguished an overhanging debt, and
had proposed during the next three
months to repaint the exterior and to
modernize the interior of the building.
1t is discouraging look to begin
again, but the church has vitality
and pluck, and will, we hope, soon
be again in fair way to prosperity
and long life of good works.
The water was two or three minutes
less than hour in making it's way
from the reservoir to the borough.
Nearly all the damage here was done
within space of two minutes.
A freak of the water was the chang
ing of the relative positions of some of
the bridges. When the swift current
from the north carried freight cars
and debris up the west branch these
easily pushed before them the iron
bridge, leaving it right side up, very
little broken, with flooring intact,
stranded upon the Woodlawn meadows.
The receding waters in turn brought
down a two-span bridge from the
Woodlawn grounds, and left it upon
the Springs House park, apparently
in good shape for restoration.
The Stafford National bank loses
nothing but it's building. The
Stafford Savings bank loses nothing
but office stationery. The Home In
surance company loses nothing but it's
office, value 81, 400. All these insti-
tutions will continue business with
little interruption.
