ty for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Children, popularity known as the Ger

illinois CFNTAAL
ISSUES An APPEAL
Vice President Park Asks Men in
Roads Employ to Do Their Best
to Increase Systems Revenues.
by Associated PreSS.)


Chicago, July 2S.-The management
of the Illinois Central railroad, through
it's vice president, w. L. Park, has is
sued an appeal to it's 10000 employees
to make the railroads interest thei1
own and do all in their power to edu
cate the people to the idea that the
railways need more revenue.
The appeal is issued in pamphlet
form which bears the title, 1.-THE Con.
Germ of the Railroad Employees in the
Existing Railroad Situation" It is
stated that the price of the commodi-
ty which the railroad has to sell,
namely transportation, is controlled
largely by those who do not know and
who cannot know the difficulties to
be overcome and the expense that
must be met in operating a railroad.
Mr.. Park makes the statement that
the physical condition of American
railroads with few exceptions, Is far
behind those Of Great Britain and Con-
tinenta1 Europe and the large sums
Of money that are now required to
rebuild systems. He asks the en-
ployes to realize that it is a financial
impossibillty to the railroads to con-
tinue to meet the demands for in
creased wages until their earnings
are boistered up by increased rates.

her desire pointed out the inadvisa

and added that, even were he disposed
to give her the chance she coveted. he
would still be in doubt whether her
talents were such as TO justify such
action on his part.

Primitive Structures Long in Use
Have Been Superseded by Mod
ern Plants.

The establishment OF a grist mn
was very important matter TO the
early settlers OF America. II was OF
little use TO grow grain unless
could be ground and made suitable TOT
food and a settlement without a grist
mill was at a serious disadvantage
the more especially because the roads
where any existed. were not OF the
best. Not many OF the oldest OF the
grist mills remain. Here in New Eng
land, as elsewhere. says the Manches-
ter IN. H. Union. they were placed
in the beginning upon small streams
which could be damned without re-
sort 10 the engineering methods OF
today. AS a consequence most oil
them were abandoned as population
increased and the resources OF the
communities made II possible to erect
mills on larger and more reliable
streams. Then, too. in these later
years. the old-fashioned country grist
mill has disappeared almost altogeth-
err A few days ago one OF the his
toric landmarks OF New Jersey, the
old grist mill at Mount Holly, was de-
stroyed by fire. IL dated from IT'S
and it's loss is of course irreparable.
1t appears, however. that New Eng
land could claim precedence of New
Jersey. even before the Mount Holly
grist mill was burned. The Provi-
dence Journal says that there is one
at New London, Conn, which was
built as early as 1850. and is of espe-
cial historic interest because it was
the property of Gov. John Winthrop.
Jr. 1t goes without saying that New
London sets great store by its old
mill In this connection IL will occur
to many New Hampshire men and
women to ask what is the oldest grist
mill now standing in the limits of the
state The very oldest, those around
Portsmouth, Dover, Durham, Hamp-
ton and Exeter, have PROFESSIONALLY
long since passed away. as have the
grist mills built upon brooks in almost
every part of the state.

Extravaqant Princess.

So much has been said and written
about the debts of Princess Louise,
eldest daughter of the late king of the
Belgians, that any story illustrating
her carelessness in money matters Is
of interest. Princess Louise literally
does not know what money means,
says the London Globe. Some time
ago, during q stay she made in Paris,
a dress which she had ordered was
brought to her hotel, says a Brussels
paper The girl who brought 1t was
pretty and charmingly dressed, with
that simplicity and grace peculiar to
the little work girl of the Rue de la
Paix. Princess Louise admired the
child and told her so, and admired,
too, little silver medal which the
girl wore around her neck. Perhaps
your highness will accept 1t" said the
work girl. 1T is a medal OF the Vir-
gin of Prague" THAT is too sweet
of YOU" said Princess Louise, and
you must let me give you something
In exchange to put around your neck.
She gave necklace of pearls, with
which the girl went off in high glee.
She thought they were imitation, ard,
even so, they were fine ones. But one
day, being short of money, she took
the necklace to jewelers. to be
valued. 1t is worth $4,000.
