Raiiroa Running Dry.

A great furry has been caused
among the railroad interests of Ne
braska by the sudden effort Of Attor
ney General Thompson to enforce the
new law requiring railroads to pay a
county license of $1,000 on every car in
which liquor is sold. This law was
passed last winter but had remained
dead letter until recently. The rail-
road officials say that it is impossible
for them to pay the licenses, which
would amount to many thousands of
dollars or more than the sales of liz

Pennsy Lowers Rates

Threatening to lay the schedule Of
high freight rates charged by the Penn
sylvania Railroad at Georgetown before
the National Railroad Commission the
Board of Trade OF that town won lite
FIRST victory last Friday morning when it
received notice that the freight rate on
coal had been lowered from $2.65 ton
20 50, q saving of thousands OF dollars to
coal consumers in that section. The pro-
test was laid before the railroad officials
by L. L. Layton, large shipper Of
Georgetown, az chairman of the COM
mittee appointed by the Board Of Trade.
The fight will be carried further, backed
by the grangers, TO lower the rates on
fertilizer, which at present is charged 30
per cent. more in Georgetown than in
Maryland, haul of seyeuty-fivo miles
more. The lowered rate on coal is con-
sidered the opening wedge, and George
town is looking for lower rates, or de-
termined protest will be made to the
national commission.-Mlford Gtronicale.

A DOMESTIC PROBLEM SOLVED A Mans Pungent Comments on Shar- ing Closet Space With His Wife.

l must tell all my brothers how my wife and I have solved the prob lem which so bothers those who dwell where there is but little closet room. With one dressing case between us, there was not room for all our things; as to the closets, they were crammed full, and even under the bed there were many hat boxes. So l pur- chased another dressing case with my tobacco coupons, getting a very pretty one for 1,O0O,50O coupons.
 I the ntook all my clothes. which had been crowding my wife's in her dressing case, and arranged them in my own. In the top drawer l put my handkerchiefs, collars and ties, and all those little articles of finery which every man loves so much. In the second drawer I placed my shirts and underwear, and devoted the lower drawer to my trousers, neatly folded and my hosiery. My wife was de- lighted, as it gave her her own dress CT all to herself and relieved the closet somewhat.
 But in a day or so the new plan proved to have a few defects, so, al my wife's suggestion, l emptied one of the upper drawers in my dresser putting it's contents into the other and allowed my wife to use the now vacant receptacle for a few of hei iabots. scarfs. etc. The second day it was decided that my shirts anC trousers could occupy the same drawer. the lowest one, so this was fixed. and into the second drawer my wife moved a few of her petticoat: and such things.
 Soon, finding that l was still using too much pace, I permitted her tC put my collars and such effects into the lowest drawer with my trousers etc, thus giving her both of the up per drawers and the next, and stll leaving me plenty of room in the on' bottom drawer.
 , Since then, however, have foun' that I do not require so much spac for my few things, so have takel them out of the bottom drawer ant hacked them into a hatbox, whlch keep under the bed, thereby glVini my wife all the drawers in my dress ing case. I find the present arrange ment very satisfactory, as all nav to do now is to empty the hatbox ol The bed when I want anything Tn Il and then. when I have made my SC lection. sweep the other articles bacl into place.
 In this way I have solved the dress ing case problem, and everything l unite pleasant in our house.

'Fifteen years from now, If l nave any teeth left for anybody to fool with, I shall hire certain Chinese boy to do the fooling," said a city salesman the other day. He will be grown up then. I saw him the other day. He was pulling pegs out of a hoard with his fingers. The pegs had been driven pretty tightly into holes in the board and it took a good deal of strength to get them out
 That is a funny game for hlm to play" I said to a white man who knows the quarter.
 Ut is not a game said he. The boy is going to be dentist. Ills folks have made up their minds about that and he has commenced early to strengthen his fingers. They train them that way in China because there they pull teeth with the fingers. He win not pull with his fingers here but the strength and skill will come in handy, just the same. New York Sun.
