Shipping Gravel Cars.

The Chicago, Milwaukee 4 ST.
Paul company is getting in readiness
to ballast the track OF its extension
west of the Missouri river, and avoid
the trouble they had with soft track
last year. Fifty gravel cars Of the
new pattern have been started on
their way to Oacoma, and a number
of them are i'm the yards in this city
awaiting their urn to be trans
ported. The company bought d
large gravel pit near Oacoma and the
material from that will be used to
put the roadbed in the best possible
condition. Before the summer is
halt owe the road bed will doubtless
ly be finished as far as the rails are
laid and better service will be given
the public for traffic to the west.
Men are being shipped out to the
end Of the road beyond Murdo as
fast as they can be secured ready to
begin the work of laying rails and
grading as soon as the conditions
is ready. Everybody around here
are pulling for the road to be finished
to the Hills county by next fall. IN
time for the opening of the corn
palace season, and the Indications
point very strongly that this will be
accomplished.

We have been working On this prop

now in a position to state positively
that we are able to finance a COM

secure a franchise that is fair and
equal and will allow a fair return

an article in a technical paper a few

ing electricity commercially, 2 cents
per XIV. hour was considered high,
and that a number of eastern plants
had reduced the cost to less than 1

FINALLY RousED UP UNCLE.
How Crowd Of Villagers Stirred the
Sage of the Cracker Barrel.

There was the usual crowd of vii
layers sitting on the postofTice steps
waiting for the mail to be distrib-
uted, and among them was Uncle
John. He had joined the sitters with
out saying word, and at the end or
fifteen minutes one of the men winked
at the crowd and said:
well, Uncle John, have you heard
about the big earthquake in Vermont,
with 10000 people killed?"
Uncle John looked at him in a
weary way and shook his head.
And the cyclone in Connecticut yes
terday and 500 houses blowndown?"
continued the man.
Uncle John yawned and was not
the least interested.
"The Ohio river rose 200 feet of a
sudden the other day and carried the
city of Cincinnati down stream. Tens
of thousands of people lost their lives.
Any of your relatives down there,
Uncle John?"
The old man slowly shook his head
and reached down to pick up silver
and pick his teeth with it,
"And the whole state of Pennsyl-
vania is caving in" said the joker,
land by tomorrow there will be a
great lake where 100000 or 100000
people have lived"
Uncle John took the news without
word. In fact, he yawned and
stretched over it.
"By thunder, but there goes a rat
under that pile of lumber across the
street." exclaimed the joker as he
rose up. Say, you fellers-"
But he got no further. Uncle John
was across the street and had a club
In his hand, and. within the next ten
minutes he had done a half days
work tearing down the pile to get at
the rat He had been aroused at
last.-Kansas City Journal.
