years ago, Wesley Ivey. one of the old

his home, three miles southwest of Will

the morning train.
Presently Mr.. Ivey sank to his knees
but an acquaintance presumed that he
was trying to pick up something from
the ground and continued talking. Then
the fallen man said: 'One of those
dizzy spells has come over me-" and
he dropped to the ground dead.

NO COMPROMISE IN FIGHT.
Rock IsIand-Eurlington Service May
Be Discontinued.

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 23.@There is
no prospect of a compromise in the
through sleeper situation as it affects
the Burlington and Rock Island rail-
roads. So far as now known Bur-
HngtOn and Rock Island through
coast service will be discontinued on
September 1s, and it is understood
that even now these two roads have
discontinued the sale OF through Pull
man tieketS to the coast.
The trouble was over a division of
the fares on the through rate to the
coast. The rate division once was
fifty and fifty per cent. Then the
local rate west of Salt Lake was equal
to the rate from the Missouri river to
Salt Lake. Later, two cent rate laws
In the Missouri valley states reduced
the rates east of Salt Lake and the
lines west of Salt Lake gain in the
pro-rate division Now the interstate
comm cree commission has reduced the
the lines west want the revert to the
equal division Of the rate on through
business. The Burlington and the
Rock Island have insisted on a rate
pro-rate division. That has caused
the trouble. They have held that IL
that plan was all right when the lines
west benefited by it that it should
hold good also when the Missouri riv-
er lines are the beneficiaries.
1t is understood that in the final
correspondence relating to the fare
and Rock Island represen tative5
served notice on the Hartman lines
and the Western Pacific that they
would await filing of cancellations

Chicago, Sept. 2s.-A Chicago high
school teacher has stirred up a hor-
nets nest by demanding that fifty

him on Monday how many words there
are in the latest editions of the most
unabridged dictionary
The pupils yesterday tried to ascer-
tain the knowledge from books of sta
tistics, Librarians and university pro-
fessors. but failed. At an indignation
meeting it was decided that the only
way to answer the question was to
count the words and this they decided
to refuse to do Prof. D P. Parham,
who asked the question, admits he does
not know the exact number himself,
but said several authorities gave it at
about 100000.
