Building the "Y."

According to rumor that has
been going the rounds this week,
the c. & E. depot will become a
union depot for all passenger
traffic coming into Corvallis, and
the old S. P. will be used as a
freight depot. While those who
are supposed to know are not Civ
ing out details of the proposed
plans, it is known positively that
men and teams have been en-
ployed this week at the c. & E
crossing north of town, grading
and laying track for "Y" on
which the S. P. trains will be
transferred to the c. & E. tracks
and thence brought into the latter
depot in this city. 1t is known
also that a new time table goes
into effect on the roth and the
story is that the change will be.
come effective on that date.
Corvallis has long needed q
union depot, as the transfer o.
freight from one depot to the
other has been most annoying tc
the travelling public. Whether
the new arrangement will be
permanent, or whether it is only
a preliminary step looking te
greater and better things is no
known; but at any rate it is stel
in the way of improvement o
depot facilities and as such viii
meet with hearty approval fron
the public.

sThe Sweetest Girl in Dixie
Wins Praise in Portland.

Mondays Oregonian has the
following to say regarding "Tne
Sweetest Girl in Dixie" which is
playing a weeks engagement in
Portland: Patterson's companies
from Chicago have been SO far
this season among the best on the
road. ''The Sweetest Girl in
Dixie" is without question one
of the cleanest and most enter
tanning comedy-dramas seen at
the Empire in many a day. The
atmosphere of the play is good to
take into the system, and it leaves
no bad taste in the mouth. With
anvcne who has been in the
beautiful Southland and mingled
with the warm-hearted people
the other side of the Ohio River,
this play creates feeling OF
homesick Less; and those who
never knew the delights of resi-
dence or visit to that enchanted
land are sure to have desire to
go after witnessing "The Sweet
est Girl" The company is even
ly balanced aad all of the parts
we'll played"

HARD YEAR FOR
THE CATARRH
TELLS VICTIMS HOW TO GET
PROMPT RELIEF
An Eminent Authority Predicts Much
Suffering and Disease This Season
Gives Recipe Which Anyone
Can Easily Prepare at Home.

The coming months will be har-
vest for the doctors and patent medi-
cine manufacturers unless great care
is taken to keep the feet dry, also
dress warmly
This is the advice of a well-known
authority and should be needed
by all who are subject to rheumatism
kidney and bladder troubles and espe-
cially catarrh. While the latter is con-
sidered by most sufferers an incura-
BILE disease, there are few men or wo-
men who will fail to experience great
relief from the following simple home
prescription, and If taken in time 1t
will prevent an attack of catarrh dur
ing the entire season.
Here is the prescription which any
one can mix: Fluid Extract Dandelion
one-half ounce, Compound Kargon one
ounce. Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla
three ounces Shake well in a bottle
and use in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and again at bedtime.
These are mostly vegetable ingre-
dients and can be obtained from any
good prescription pharmacy at small
cost.
The Compound Kargon in this pre-
scription acts directly upon the elimi-
native tissues Of the kidneys to make
them filter and strain from the blood
the poisons that produce all forms of
catarrhal affections. Relief is often
felt even after the first few doses and
It is seldom that the sufferer ever ex-
periences return attack within the
year.
This prescription makes splendid
remedy for all forms of blood disor-
ders and such symptoms as lame back.
bladder weaknesses and rheumatism
pains are entirely dispelled.
As this valuable, though simple re
cipe comes from thoroughly reliable
source. it should be needed by every
afflicted reader.

Deeath Certificate from an Osteo-
path Is Not Accepted.

On the grounds that the death cer-
tiflcate of Mrs. Minnie Haines, who
died Friday, was illegal because II
was signed by an osteopath, Health
Officer Braden refused to accept the
certificate, says the Walla Walla
Union. The remains were placed in
charge Of Coroner McMartin, who
held an autopsy at s o'clock yester-
day morning. The verdict returned
was that Mrs. Halnes died of typhoid
fever, as was stated in the death cer-
tificate of the osteopath.
According to the provisions of
the statutes of the state of Washing
ton," said Coroner McMartin, "the
signature of an osteopath on the death
certificate is not recognized.
On account of this provision 1t was
necessary to hold the autopsy to le-
gally establish the cause of death.
Upon examination of the remains by
City Health Officer Braden and my
self, we found that death resulted

|S|GNAL SYSTEM,
| DOUBLE TRACK
MANY IMPROVEMENTS
FOR SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Over 500 Miles of Double Track
Completed Besides 4O35 Miles
Protected by Block Signal System
Greatest Possible Safety Is AS
sured Through Modern Appliances.

San Francisco, Oct. 22.-With a
greater mileage Of track protected by
automatic signals than any other
railroad, the Southern Pacific has
correspondingly developed and i'm
proved the operation of its signal
system.
The company's experience is that,
everything considered, the automatic
system costs no more than the man
ual system with telephone commu.
nication. The great advantage of the
automatic system is that 1t almost
entirely eliminates the danger Of
mistakes on the part of operators,
that broken rails are often discovered
before they cause accidents, and
that, as operated on the Southern
Pacific, the automatic signals in
crease the traffic capacity OF the
road.
On its single track installation. of
which the Southern Pacific has COM
pleted and authorized 4O35 miles, the
standard arrangement is for signals
in pairs at sufficient distance to
provide proper head-on protection.
This is usually from 1000 feet to a
mile. No distant signals are used
for home signals between stations,
for the reason that the slstem was
designed to meet the requirements of
comparatively light traffic and mod
crate speed.
At stations and sidings there are
distant signals for protecting trains
standing on the main line. BY this
arrangement the trains are enabled
to meet or pass each other at sta
tions without disregarding signals or
Tagging through the block.
This system was developed while
the block signal installations on the
company's lines were comparatively
insignificant, and is now being ex-
tended along the enormous increase
I'm the track under automatic block.
tests of enginemen are made
at frequent intervals with the result
that there IS very seldom any disre-
gard OF signals. One OF the most
rules of the company is
that all trains must sbe tagged
through against all danger signals.
No permissive movements are allow
ed. Whenever it is found that these
rules impede traffic the number of
intermediate Signals is increased.
When the signal installations al
ready authorized are completed, the
Southern Pacific will have 557 miles
Of double track, in addition to 4,035
miles of single track protected by
automatic block. In addition to this
here are los miles. of track operated
under the electric staff system, maxi
ing a total of 400 miles, the great
est distance so protected by any rail-
road In the world.
