ed to its employees, the Western Union
| Telegraph company has ordered a
twenty per cent raise in the toll rates
| Although the homeseekers excurs-
ions on the western and southwestern
railroads, were supposed to end the
latter part of this month, they will
continue during the months of May
and June. Whether or not tickets
will be sold from Richmond during
those months is not known at the 10
cal station.
The Lake Shore, contrary to others
belonging to the Central Passenger as
ISOLATION will cut it's rates on excurs-
ions below the two cent per mile

Indiana, Ohio or Pennsylvania would
break its promise of dishing out flat
two cent rates for all causes and pur-
poses.
General Freight Agent J. B. Hill of
the Pennsylvania is now enroute to
California with his bride.
Representatives of transcontinental
lines deny that the rate on lumber
will be increased forty to sixty cents
per 100, in reprisals for the passage
of the reciprocal demurrage law

An Exciting Runaway.

Eaton-A most exciting runaway
occurred here Monday morning. A
pony owned by William Spacht, the
Main street butcher, broke 1od6e from
the hitching rack in front of its own
ers place of business at seven o'clock,
and tearing the bride and lines from
it's head started to run "for dear life
1t was hitched to a four-wheeled open
vehicle, and of course this went with
it. 1t ran from street to street, and
through alleys and yards, and wherey-
err it could run. After covering the
space of perhaps a mile it finally
wound itself up in the front yard of the
J. E. Parker home on West Main,
where it was captured.

CATALPA TREES HISTORY.
MANY OF THEM BETWEEN co
LUMBUS AND INDIANAPOLIS.
Put Out as an Experiment by Col.
John 2. Miller, But Were
Not Profitable.

Passengers Oh the Pennsylvania
railroad often wonder over the num-
Der of catalpa trees between Column
bus, O., and Indianapolis, and but
few know their history. About TWEEN
ty years ago Col. J. F. Miller of this
city then superintendent of the India
napolis division of the road. conceived
the idea of planting catalpa trees
along the right of way, that they
might serve to beautify the road dur
ing their early life. and when they
became of age, might be used for
crossties and fence posts. The ven
ture was failure after thousands OF
dollars had been spent in the work.
The company from which the Penn
sylvania purchased its trees, swindled
the railroad, it is said, for instead of
giving the road the better grade OF
catalpa trees, the soft or worthless
variety was instituted. The trees also
hindered the engineers clear view OF
crossings and they were cut away at
these places but still many hundred
remain between the two capital cities.

He suffered with pains across his back which were more severe at night than at any other time and if he stopped over, 1t pained him. When he caught cold his back felt lame and sore and the kidneys were irregular at times and caused him annoyance.
