union soldiers.
The following is the editorial that has
aroused the indignation Of the old SOL

For half century Decoration day
has served the unhappy purpose of re-
viving old sorrows. keeping alive old
animosities, stirring up old griefS. Next
Tuesday should mark the beginning OF
q new era. for it will be so years since
the civil war began. Think of it: fifty

to forget and forgive? Can't you lay
aside your memories and resolve to well
come Memorial day in the future for a
new reaSon?'
The following is paragraph from the
last general order of the Kansas de-
partmeDt:
Let the recurrence of Memorial day
renew in your hearts that charity
which is one of the greatest principles
of the Grand Army; but-restrict not
your charity to the living. Extend it
also to the dead. If the grave of a
confederate soldier lies in your path
pass it not by. Remember that the
brave respect the brave, and reverently
lay your flowers upon his earthly Gov

were enemies are now friends

MISSOURI PACIFIC PLANS
To Spend $1O,OOO,OOO a Year for Bet
tcrments-12 New ENGINES

st. Louis, June 1.-The Missouri Pacific
IS now arranging to negotiate the sale of
$2o,OOO.OOO in three year 5 per cent notes
for use in rebuilding the system. Speyer
d Co, New York bankers, represented in
the Missouri Pacific directorate, are said
70 nave the sale of securities in hand.
Word comes from New York to the effect
that arrangements for the rehabilitation
OF the property are nearing completion.
1t is reported that the directors have
decided that no more than SO, 000, 900 year
VIII be advanced for rebuilding purposes,
holding that greater sum cannot be
spent to advantage and it's expenditure
properly supervised. Construction experts
have figured that it will take between
five and seven years to rebuild properly

branches on which heavy traffic is han
died. This rebuilding, of course, in the
end viii amount to the entire reconStruc-
ton of the system because material taken
from the main lines and more important
branches will be replaced on smaller
branches, taking out the lightest steel
and thus adding to the weight of the rails
all over the system.
1t is not thought that much show of
new work can be made by the present
management before the end of the sum-
mer or early fall, as it will take consider
able time to decide what is to be done
and complete the organization for doing
the work.
Some Of the preliminary work already
has been started. 1t was announced a
few days ago that the management of

thought the latter plan will facilitate the
work.
That the company will purchase A, 900
tons of steel rails to be used in replac-
ment work was decided by the directors
a few days ago. A large portion of this
purchase will be used for the construc-
ton of sidings to accommodate large in
duStries that are going up along the lines
of the system, and for passing tracks.
The purchase of twelve freight loco
motives also has been authorized and

chase cars from time to time, but the

NOT HABIT FORMING.
Is Recent Legal Determination
COca-COia.

Coca-Cola, according to a recent de-
termination, is not a detrimental habit
forming drug. In Connection with q case
in point the company authorizes the
following statement:
THE trial of the case of the Gov
eminent against The Coca-Cola COM
pany, recently heard before Judge E.
t. Sanford, United States district judge
at Chattanooga, Tenn, involved an i'm
portant question regarding the opera
tons of the Pure Food Law, and Incl
dentally, it involved the business in
tegrity as well as existence, of a cor
poration with nation wide reputation.
The Coca-Cola company was able
to defeat every contention of the gov
eminent and Judge Sanford, at the
close of three weeks of exhaustive in
vestigation, directed verdict in favor
of this company and against the con-
tentions of the government.
"Such experts and specialists as DR..
Allen McLane Hamilton. Cornell uni
versity, DR.. John w. Mallett of the
University of Virginia. DR.. Victor C.
Vaughan of the University of Michigan,
DR.. ]. w. Wesener of Chicago. DR.. Lud-
wig Heckton of Chicago and a num-
Der of others clearly refuted the charge
that Coca-Cola was a habit forming
drug.
'Dr. Mallett, in answering the ques-
ton propounded to him as to what he
meant by habit forming drug, stated,
that the habit formed must be detri-
mental one and an injurious one-one
which takes a permanent hold upon the
person acquiring it and that is thrown
off with great difficulty and with con-
siderable suffering. and further, that
the continued exercise of the habit In
creaseS the demand for the habit form
ing drug and that Caffeine is not a
habit forming drug in that sense.
"The government contended that in
asmuch as Coca-Cola contained a small
amount of Caffeine 1t was habit form
ing. 1t was brought out in this trial
that Coca-Cola contained less Caffeine
than coffee, therefore, if action was ia
ken against Coca-Co1a it would only be
fair that the consumption of coffee, tea
and even chocolate should be restricted.
Judge Sanford in his final ruling sta
ted, that Coca-Cola was widely known
and recognized for it's qualities by the
public for many years and that it could
not be said that Caffeine was an add
ed and harmful Ingredient"

BISCUITS VS.. LATIN.

Former Than Latter.

''I believe that Booker T. Washing

because he said that the colored man

said DIR. F. L. Loveland in speaking
before the graduates at the Topeka In

What the people need to know is
that it is great deal more important
for girl to know how to make bis

thing to have a suit that you can wear.

something that, you my sisters ana
