SIX MINUTES COST $3.50, 900.
Santa Fe Lets Expensive Contract for
Small Fullerton Cutoff.

San Bernardino, Cal, March "a
The Santa Fee is rushing more con-
struction along its lines east of Los
Angeles at present than at any time
within the past three years in an eff
fort to be ready foe the increased
traffic that has been piling upon it.
Since the letting of the contract for
the building of the Fullerton cutoff
near Orange, construction work has
been pushed to such an extent that it
is asserted that this part of the line will
be ready for operation before May 1.
This piece of construction will cost
with the land purchased for the right
of way, more than $150,000 and it
simply cuts six minutes from the time
between Los Angeles and San Bernar-
dino over the southern branch of the
road.
At the same time, Superintendent
Hibbard has been rushing materials
to the Santa Fee cutoff between Parker
and Bengal to such an extent that the
steel is being laid at the rate of more
than mile per day. This road will be
completed before May 1, according to
reports.

PAUL MORTON AS PRESIDENT.
Former Secretary of Navy to Head
Pan-American Railroad.


Gamboa, Oaxaca, Mexico, March p.
Much significance is attached to the
election of Paul Morton, former secre-
tary of the navy, as vice president OF
the Pan-American railroad, according
to reports emanating from the general
offices here. It is stated that Mr..
Morton will look after the financial
plans of the property. and that his
election means that the Pan-American
will extend its line through Guatemala;
also that it will build a branch line
apas, and probably into the states of
Tabasco and Campeche. David E.
Thompson, president and principal
owner of the Pan-American, who ac-
quired control from s.. Louis and Los
Angeles capitalists, recently returned to
Mexico from a stay of some time in
New York, where he conferred with
Mr.. Morton and other men of large
financial connections in regard to the
proposed expansion and development
of the property. The road will soon be
trail. and when this is accomplished it
is expected that the increase of traffic
will be large. The road is already
handling big tonnage of freight haul
ed overland to it at Mariscal from
Guatemalan points.
The physical condition of the road
is to be greatly improved and much
new equipment has been ordered. MI
Thompson says that he wants to make
it one of the best built roads in Mex
ico He will soon make an inspection
of the property, accompanied by Mr.
Morton. They will extend their trip
into Guatemala, going over the route
of the proposed extension through that
country,

ciety for Suppression of Noises.

New York. March 22.-Urging upon
Mayor Gaynor and the aldermen the
adoption of a noiseless Independence
day, Mrs. Isaac L. Rice of the society
for the suppression of unnecessary
noises says in an open letter today that
in the last three celebrations of the
Fourth of July in New York city, more
persons have been killed or injured
than in seven of the famous battles of
the revolution.
Governors of % states of the Union
and As mayors of leading cities have
consented to become members of a
national committee for the promotion
of a safe and sane Fourth of July
said Mrs. Rice in her letter. The an
nual list of casualties for this day
reached a total of nearly 1900. Yet
Mr.. Gaynor says that he is touched
with sympathy for the small boy who
desires to shoot off the frecrackers.
But with the facts before him, surely
Mayor Gaynor will be able to see the
other side

Rheumatic
Pains

my mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DIR.
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Roycefeld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence of
pain, which SO frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
It does not benefit he will return
your money.

Not only has he, In his long career

fancy he knew pretty well how to deal
automatically with women.
The senator happens Just at this
time to be a grass widower. His wife
left about q month ago on a visit, and
has not yet returned. Now, grass
widowing is all right for awhile, but
when everything in the house Is eaten

So It was with Senator Payne. At
the end of three weeks he decided he
had had enough. Pride, however,
checked him when he assayed to write
and frankly state his predicament
Instead, he decided to indulge in di-
plomacy. He went to a public stenog-
rapher and dictated a letter to his bet
ter half. He began by saying he had
nothing in particular to write about,
but since he had employed a stenog-
rapher he had to keep her busy. He
trusted his wife was enjoying herself
more money she would not hesitate
to draw on him. The weather in Rock
Island was pretty bad and she would
probably find it pleasanter to prolong
her stay a few weeks till it warmed
up a bit. Then, too, bad weather had
made railroad wrecks rather frequent
of late and he hoped she would take
her personal safety into consideration
and journey home, when she did
come, by easy stages.
The senator chuckled over this let

dicted that it would bring his spouse
back on the next train. But this is
where he missed his~calculations.

Are You Nervous
GREAT SPECIALIST TELLS WHY
YOU DON'T GET WELL.

Are you nervous? Then we say to
you that somewhere along the spine
there is very often a congestion and
you can never get we'll until that con-
gested spot is relieved. We have prov
en- this in hundreds of cases, and we
can prove it to you. We have the
testimony of hundreds of grateful pa
tients to back up this great truth.
For years we have made a scientific
study of these cases. By finding these
congested places in the spinal column
and relieving them by special treat
ments we have cured hundreds after
others failed. Many of these cases
had been ailing for years, and be-
fore coming to our Office. they had
been treated by others for all kinds
of complaints except the right one.
Many complaints are caused or
kept up by congestion in the spine,
such as nervous prostration, nervous
dyspepsia, Indigestion. palpitation of
the heart, loss of sleep, poor men,
DRY, pain in back of neck, restless
ness, lack of confidence, loss of
strength, easily tired, general weak
ness, or weakness of any part, back
ache, dependency, worry, hot and
cold flashes, numb feeling, paralysis,
neuralgia, female complaints, consti-
patton, nervous debility, weakness of
the heart, stomach, liver or kidneys,
cough, cold hands and feet, poor cir
culation and general weak and ner-
vous conditions of men, women and
children.
