PLANTING TREES FOR TIES.
Railroads Providing for Day When
Forests Are Gone

The most perishable of the factors
that enter into a railroads "mainten-
ance of way" accounts, the ties, are in
modern practice reckoned for furthest
ahead says the New York Times. The
Atchison is the latest road to adopt
the plan of growing its own ties,
which means that about twenty years
from now the construction department
will be cutting its own timber. pro-
vided, of course, that in the interven-
ing generation ties of steel or sleepers
of stone or concrete after the English
fashion have not come into general
use
Dispatches from the West announce
that the Atchiscn has paid 100000
for a ranch in California containing
$3.50 acres on which to grow eucalyp-
t1s trees to supply the road with ties.
i takes the tree, which is a relatively
rapid grower, about twenty years to
arrive al diameter large enough for
the purpose and each tree will then
furnish from six to eight ties. In or
der to give the road continuous sup
ply about $50 acres will be planted

KIM: PETER MENACED BY
GROWING THREAT OF REVOLT
Constantly Fears Share the Fate of His Predecessor
Bloody Throne of Serbia
on Bloody Throne of Serbia.

King Peter waded to his throne
through blood. The fear that he will
leave it by an equally CORY route
makes Servia's ruler the most unhap-
py monarch of Europe to-day
For three years in succession he
has suffered all the agonies of a man
condemned to death in the days inn
mediately preceding each June 18th.
This is the anniversary of the as
sassination of King Alexander and
Queen Draga.
The superstitions and fataistic tenn
permanent of the Servians would make
an anniversary seem to them the most
appropriate time to end dynasty
King Peter has successfully passed
June 11th three times, but there is no
comfort in this fact for the sorely
pressed Karageorgevitch, for now the
people are becoming impatient, and
every day has become virtual June
nth and the dread of assassination is
peril that never leaves the mind OF
the king, day or night.

I few days ago Peter, placed be-
tween two fires, dare neither approve
nor veto the bill, and while it lay on
his desk the citizens gathered in the
court yard of the palace crying, Long
live Alexander! Long live the repub-
ic. Down with Peter.'
This outburst but fairly expresses
the hatred felt toward King Peter.
One of his first acts upon assuming
he scepter was to remove his name
from the list of persons marked for
execution the moment they were
caught in Servia.
During the reign of Alexander,

King Peter, then fifty-eight years
old. might have succeeded but for his
unfortunate alliance with the regi-
cides. who had made his accession to
the throne possible. If Peter had been
innocent of any completely in the TAX
ing of of the unhappy king and queen
he could have made an auspicious
start by vigorously visiting justice on
the guilty.
But unfortunately for the new mon
arch, it is established beyond chance
of doubt that he knew in advance Of

were concerned in the deed of blood.
It is even said that the military
commander who led the assault forced
him to sign a paper to this erect
Thus at the very start of his reign he
was compelled to permit leaders OF the
regicides to hold prominent and osten-
tatious place at his court.
They had the king completely IN
their power, and knew it. From the
time he wore crown until the pres
ent day Peter has never dared make
move without the knowledge and ap-
proval of the murderers.

NERVOUS HEADACHES
Or. Williams Pink Pills Will Cure
Most Cases and Should interest
Everv Sufferer

Nobody who has not endured tho
suffering caused by nervous head
ache can realize the awful agony of
its victims. Worst of all, the ordin-
ary treatment cannot be relied upon
to cure nor even to give relief. Some
doctors will say that if a person is
subject to these headaches there is
nothing that can be done to prevent
their recurrence.
Nervous headaches, as well as neu-
ralgia, are caused by lack OF nutrition
the nerves are starved. The only
way to feed the nerves is through the
blood and it is in this way that DR..
Williams Pink Pills have accom-
plished SO many remarkable cures.
Mrs. Addie Merrill. of SO Union
Street, Auburn, Me-, says: For
years l suffered from nervous aead-
aches, which would come on me every
five or six weeks and continue for
several days. The pain was so severe
that / would be obliged to go to bed
for three or four days each time. It
was particularly intense over my right
eye. | tried medicines but got no re-
lief. / had no appetite and when
the headache passed away | felt as if
| had been sick for month. Ny

and reduced in weight

Pills in a paper and decided to try
them. | first noticed that they be-
gan to give me an appetite and l

II King Peter loses his throne, by
abdication or assassination, the proph
ecies of the Servian peasant, Matheas
of kremna, will have had absolute
fulfilment On June 10, 1868, this man
rushed wildly into the streets OF a
town many, miles from Belgrade,
shouting that Oberenovitch, then ruler
of Servia, was being asSassinated
This assertion. which could only have
been based on intuition, proved to be
correct, and as a result Matheas was
looked upon as being sage.
Subsequently he predicted the ac.
cession of King Milan his unhappy
marriage, his abdication. his death in
a foreign country, and the succession
and terrible fate of King Alexander
All these came absolutely true.
The prophecy respecting King Peter
was thus: He (Alexander) will be
replaced on the throne by Peter Kara
georgevitch, who will reign about
three years, and then also disappear.

Peter. Indeed he has been indirectly
the cause of much of the abuse cast
upon the ruler.

nounced him a weakling, almost de
generate, who would be an easy vic
tim for a forceful woman.
The woman in the case was not
long in appearing. She was an act
ress, MademOiselle Dechanska From
all that is known of the lady, she was
entirely bameless, and held high
place as one of the best actresses at
the Royal theater.
Being a native of Belgrade, she had
an immense popularity, and the peo-
pie really approved when it became
noised around that the crown prince
had fallen victim to her charms.
But the attachment suggested diff
ferent picture to King Peter. He in
stantly recalled the baneful influence
Draga had welded over his predeces-
sor, King Alexander.

recurrence of this incident. he Or
| dered Mademoiselle Dechanska to quit
Belgrade. She did SO and went
| abroad. Shortly after this she was
| found murdered, and the suspicious
| Servians Immediately leaped to the
| damning conclusion that King Peter
| had been the instigator of her death.
King Peter vehemently denied the
charge. but never succeeded in con-
vincing his people.
| The storm of hatred that RACES
around his august head has forced
King Peter to extraordinary precau-
tions to increase his personal safety.
/ He rarely leaves his guarded palace,
and will not eat unless his food has
| first been tasted by some one else.
At all times he has near him a sup
| ply of dynamit bombs. He carries
them in his carriage when driving, and
keeps them in his Office desk in the
shape of match boxes, cigar holders
and the like. Moreover, he never
goes to sleep without bombs being

The purity of salt depends upon the
