HUMAN BODY LIKE DYNAMO
Not . Storage Battery, Writer say..
but Manufactures Its Energy Ae-
eordin0 to Demand.

have long been convinced that the
weli-trained human body Is a dynamo
or magnetic which manufactures its
energy according to the demand, and
does not. like storage battery, con.
tain nxed quantity Of stored.up en-.
ergy or power, writer in the
Forum says. A little reflection upon
the great adaptability of the tody to
many varying conditions of existence
tends strongly to confirm this view
II is well known that no other animal
can exist under such a variety of CT:
mates and conditions, and upon sucb
diversity Of foods, as man. But n
Is not 80 we'll known, for example.
tnat no other animal possesses the
endurance and capacity for labor
which man possesses. Yet It is In.
conceivable that any other animal
tnan man could have performed Mr.
Weston's task In the time he accom-.
plshed 1t. Whenever a horses endu.
rance has been tried against mans.
the victory has seemed to lodge with
the biped.
Inc average mans endurance OF IA.
ugue, like his endurance OF heat and
cold fasting and feasting, great exer.
ZION and absolute rest, can be ain. est
Indefinitely increased. The only sat.
is1ylng explanation OF this phenome.
non is the preponderating influence of
MS spiritual nature. Man can train
MS body TO do his bidding to a de-
gree hitherto considered impossible.
and evidently far beyond the capacity
OF brute. The body, when proper.
~ trained, manufactures the energy
II needs as 1t expends It, Our energy
Is not stored up within us to be drawn
on as man draws water out of
cask, nor Is our so-called vitality a
nxed quantity. Great bodily strength.
huge muscles and a deep chest do not
necessarily indicate endurance. or a
capacity for long-sustained exertion.
Ihese attributes merely indicate the
muscular and osseous foundations
upon which an athletes prowess may
be developed Man trains himself to
great physical or mental efficiency by
practice and care. He succeeds in
endurance tests largely by will power.

DISCUSSES STATE
R. R. COMMISSION

Aside from any political ques-
tion-the election being over
there is continuous discussion
relative to the railroad commission
OF the State, says the Carson APP
peal. Yesterday one of the repre-
sentatives Of one of TIE largest
hardware houses in Nevada paid a
visit to this city. The gentleman.
who covers every town of any
size in the State, and who did not
quote his political creed. gave the
hearers some pretty straight lines
on the good work of the commits
sion and the future that is before
it.
He stated that first of all this
office should be let alone. 1t had
performed more good for the State
in the past two years than has the
commission of California since it's
organization. In talking of the
back haul measure, which is to be
knocked out the first of next
month, he showed figures to show
that Nevada has been paying
$500. 900 a year for an imaginary
back haul from Sacramento to
points in this State. He cited
case of carload of wagons re-
ceived from the east. The back
haul on each wagon amounted to
more than ten dollars and this
figured on carload lots.
This profit is to go to the
rancher. The same rate can be
figured Oh all agricultural imple-
ments. With the reduction of
freight rates and the destruction
of the back haul the people of this
State benefit not only the $500, 600
they have paid for back haul, but
futher benefit by a reduction on
all 'freights that will come to
Nevada.
In speaking of the proposed
change of the law placing the COM
mission on elective tickets as
against the appointive measure he
stated that the business men in a
body would fight such movement,
not from any political standpoint,
but for the benefit of the people
and themselves AS he explained
the matter it was simply one OF
general protection. The gentle
man cited reduction after reduc-
ton to his hearers and explained
now the railroad has attempted to
kill the law off with amendments,
such as compelling the merchants
in case Of a complaint to furnish
the cash to carry on the fight.
The amendment was knocked out.
He further stated that in his
mind Governor Oddie would be
appealed to by corporate interests
to kill the effect of the law, and he
hoped, as does every resident, that
Mr.. Oddie will see that his promise
to the people will be kept; that he
will further safeguard this impor-
ant Nevada law and turn deaf
ear to any who would take the power
of tue commissioners away in any
sense. Nevada is about to receive
a substantial benefit on this score
and after paying the Southern
Pacific millions of dollars in
straight robbery tie people would
never forgive any Governor or any
official who made it possible for
the big corporation to again place
its hands in the people's nockets

TRAVELLERS PREY
OF A ROBBER GANG
LOSSES OF CASH AND VALUABLES
ALONG CANADIAN PACIFIC
ESTIMATED AT $4,000.

Winnipeg, Sept. 22.-That one of the
cleverest and boldest gangs of train
and hotel thieves ever gathered to-
gether has been operating at great
profit to themselves the past two
months, between Ashcroft, B. c., and
Montreal, was the statement made to-
day by an official Of the Canadian Pa
cific railway. He further said that
guests at Canadian Pacific hotels
and travellers on the transcontinental
railway have been robbed Of upwards
of 100000 in cash and valuables by
these crooks, who are said to be the
pick of the cleverest criminal ring on
the American continent.
While there has been some indica-
ton of their work west of Ashcroft,
the biggest jobs appear to have been
pulled off east of that point. 1t seems
to have been established by detectives
that the western headquarters of the
gang is at Ashcroft, at which point
many moneyed men leave the trains
for the Cariboo.
Several travellers are said to have
been robbed of practically everything
they carried, while the robbers left
behind them no trace.

Men on Grill

Chicago, Sept. 22.-Today's session
Of the railroad rate hearing bc&pre the
interstate commerce commission was
expected to be devoted largely to
cross examination by the attorneys
for the shippers Of the witnesses Of
the Chicago, Milwaukee e. ST. Paul
and Chicago e. Northwestern rail-
roads who on direct examination testi-
fed they believed an increase in rail-
way rates necessary to maintain the
financial integrity Of their properties.
w. A. Gardner, vice president Of the
Northwestern line, was the first wit
ness subjected to questions by Atty.
Clifford Thorne who represents live
stock shippers in twenty-five states.
Thorne's questions were intended to
bring from the witness the admission
that his company had kept up its right
of way and equipment by the use only
of the earnings without effecting dfvi-
dends in years when the income appar-
emily was light as well as other years.
The other roads who will present
testimony in support Of their conten-
ton that a raise of rates is, needed at
this time are the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy, Iowa Central Minneapolis
& st. Louis, Chicago G. Alton, Mis-
souri, Pacific, The Omaha Road &
