STRIKE IS CALLED OFF.
Employees of French Railways Will
Return to Work.

Paris, Oct. 1S.-The railroad strike
has been formally called off. This was
decided at a meeting of the strike
committee of the National Railroad
ers' union. Work will be resumed on
all lines today.
The collapse of the strike was pri-
marily due to the stringent measures
taken by Premier BRAND, who called
to the colors the majority of the strik-
ers, thus compelling them to do serv-
ice as reservistS- The premier also
placed under arrest many of the strike
leaders and used the military forces
without restraint for the protection
of life and property. After having
broke nthe back of the strike, M.
BRAND successfully arranged a prac-
teal settlement whereby the chief de-
mands of the men were met.
A serious situation arose through
the throwing of bombs and attempts
at train wrecking, responsibility for
which the strikers denied. Accord
ing to the police. these outrages were
planned by the anarchists and fighting
revolutionists, whohoped to take adj
vantage of the strike agitation to ter
rorize the people. The entire press in
France with the exception of certain
revolutionary organs was opposed to
the strike an dsupported Premier
BRAND in the settlement -ofa serious
economic and social crisis.
The succession of bomb outrages, in
connectio nwith the strike, reached a
climax in an attempt to wreck a pas

MOST READY FOR dixie.
City Has Decided to Condemn Land
Along Kaw River.

The city has decided to condemn the
land along the south bank of the Kaw
river and with the county begin the
construction of a new earth dixie at
once.
At a meeting of the city board of
commissioners this morning it was de-
cided that a benefit district including
that portion of the city bounded by
the river, Kansas avenue, Fourth
street and Polk streets, should be
created for the purpose of paying for
this work.
Appraisers of this territory will be
appointed at the next meeting of the
commissioners. 1t is thought that the
dixie can be completed before the
spring freshetS next year.
The cost of a soil dixie will be much
smaller than the cost of a concrete
dixie. The fact that the earth from be-
meath the Me1an bridge extension is
within 100 yards of the dixie site will
decrease this item in the grading. I'm
der the conditions it is thought that
the dixie will cost the city and county
little in comparison with the original
plan for concrete.

NEW BUILDINGS FOR SHOP MEN
Santa Fe VIII Spend $4,000 to Help
Men in California.


San Bernardino, Cal, Oct. 1S.-For
the convenience of the shop men in
this city the Santa Fe has authorized
the erection of combined locker and
lunch room, to serve as a recreation
hall. The building is to cost $4,000.

sections.
In the largest section will be To-
Gated the lunch room, which is also
to be utilized as reading room. 1t
will be entirely separate from the lock-
er room and the wash room, which
are to form the other two sections.
Benches will be run around the
lunch room and here the men are to
eat their noon day meal. In the cen
ter of the room will be placed long
table, on which at all times are to be
kept newspapers and magazines which
the men can read during the noon
hour. 1t is intended that fund to
secure the reading matter shall be
bade up by the employees, each to do
nate five or ten cents a day, which
will be sufficient to supply all the To-
cal and Los Angeles newspapers and
various magazines.
Modern lockers will be installed. In
which the men can leave their work
ing clothes after finishing their days
labor and where the street clothing
can be kept during working hours.

A group of soldiers guarding the

three persons on the bridge just be-

The train from DreuX arrived a few
minutes later and continued on its

the explosion that all Versailles was
shaken. Thousands of people rushed
to the scene and police and guards
were Immediately strengthened along
the line.
Attempts at train wrecking are re-

and serious catastrophes have been
narrowly averted. Dynamite was
found strewn along the tracks near

to blow up a bridge spanning the river

WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA

Scientists are now agreed that the
eczema germs are lodged not in the
outer skin or epidermis, but in the in
ner skin. Hence, a penetrating liquid
is required, not an outward Salve that
clogs the pores.
We recommend to all eczema pa
tlents the standard prescription Oil of
Wintergreen as compounded in liquid
form known as D. D. D. Prescription.
A trial bottle of this D. D. D. Prescrip-
ton, at only % cents, will instantly re-
lieve the itch. We have sold and rec
commended this remedy for years, and
know of wonderful cures from it's use.
We recommend it to our patrons.

A NEW SANTA FE DONATION.
At Big Expense VIII Assist in Light
ing of State Building.

In order to make a better light for
the state memorial building the Santa
F'e has decided to face the south wall
of the new big general office building
with white enamel brick. The new Of
flee building-a mammoth REINFORCED
concrete structure eight stories in
height is built between the old general
office building and the site for the me-
mortal building.
In order to make 1t lighter for the
offices in their own building the Santa
F'e ordered that white enamel brick
should be placed on the north wall of
the new offices. Today they decided that
this same kind of brick should be used
on the south wall in order to accommo-
date the state building.
White enamel brick are probably the
most expensive brick made. To face an
eight story wall with this brick costs
hundreds of dollars. This was done for
the benefit of the people of the state
without request.
