visual demonstration of its powers.
While poslam has been mentioned
principally in connection with the cure
of eczema, the most stubborn of skin
diseases. it must be remembered that
when used for itch. hives, pimples,
blotches. acne, itching feet, scaly
scalp, chafing of infants and similar
minor skin troubles its action is all the
more pronounced, results being seen
after an overnight application. AS

NEW MONSTER LOCOMOTIVE.
Great Northern Claims Big Rival to
Santa Fe's Biggest in World

Great Northern Claims Big Rival to
Santa Fe's Biggest in World
st. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 1.-THE Great
Northern has a new monster locomo-
tive, built at the company's shops, and
said to be one of the largest engines
in the world. 1t is remarkable for its
length in contrast with its height, and
is capable of moving from 100 to 12O
fifty-ton cars on a level track. .
The total weight of the engine and
tender is 46S,000 pounds. The rough
general idea of a tandem bicycle en-
tered into it's construction. An addi-
tional unit was added, with the result
that the engine has total length from
pilot to rear end of tender of ninety
two feet. There are two sets of CYL
inders. The back or high pressure
cylinders receive direct steam and the
front or low pressure cylinders then
use it again. The machine is being
moved to Montana for a "try-out'' on
mountain grades.

At the time Killing left the Chicago
team he announced that he would new
er play ball again. He said he want
ed more time to care for his private
business. Killing for many months has
been a puzzle to the baseball enthusi-
asts throughout the country. Many
interviews have been given out in
which it was declared that he wanted
to go back into baseball and then a
few days later it would be reported
that he would never again play ball.
1t is probable that the national COM
mission will now reinstate him on con-
dition that he pay fine.

MAIL WEIGHING TO BEGIN.
Radical Changes Looked for i'm Rules
and General Methods.

Chicago, Feb. 11.-Probably the
most important reweighing OF the
mails in the history of the postoffice
department will begin on February II
in what is known as the fourth divi-
sion, consisting of all the territory
west of the Mississippi river to the
Pacific coast. Upon the result of the
reweighing depends the settlement of
many of the mooted questions which
have been bothering the government
and the railroads for years.
1t is not at all unlikely that the re-
weighing will result in several radi-
cal changes in the methods and in the
rules and the pay given the railroads
for transportation of the mails. Last
year the government paid the railroads
fully $47,0O0.000 for carrying the mails
and the railroads insist that the COM
pensation was inadequate, while the
government insists that it was. if any,
thing. too great.

see the production of the great fire
