BAGGAGEMEN GET
NEEDED RELIEF
Railroads Will Charge More for
Man of War Trunks After
First of the Year

CHICAGO, March 13.-Now walls
the baggage smasher"
His muscular development is being
outgrown by the increasing size of
trunks used by the travelling public.
For over a year he has been pant
ing and putting over the new men of
war trunks put out by enterprising
manufacturers for salesmen's sam
pies or TOURISTS wardrobes.
For the baggage handlers relief
the railroads Of the United States af-
ter Jan. 1, 1912, will charge excess
baggage rates for extra space taken
up by the large trunks, in addition
to their excess weight.
For every inch in length over forty
inches-the railroad trunk standard
will be made. Trunks measuring
over seventy inches will be barred.
Odd Sizes Ruled Out
The odd size, too, must go. Rail-
road baggage interests, who ave
been comforting with the trunk man
ufacturers, insist that the sharp
pointed or curved saIesmen-s trunk
must be put in the higher rate class.
According to railroad men, the
new trunks are enoroaching on the
space in the baggage cars, and do not
permit of easy handling. When
trunks are near a standard size an
aisle can be made IF uniform width
in the baggage car when all trunks
are piled up on the sides. The new
trunks also cause confusion on the
trucks at stations.
New baggage rules, as applying to
trunks, have been adopted severally
by the different passenger associa-
tions, with a few exceptions.

LONDON, March 13.-Mr. ThOs
Howell arrived from Canada few
days ago in search of five thousand
wives for the single farmers and me-
chanics of the great Northwest. This
Canadian "Davy." speaking for an
army of "Barkises," says the English
lassies will have the choice of fifty
thousand bachelors, thirty thousand
of whom own their own farms and
the rest of whom are mechanics and
artisans in the smaller towns.
Mr.. Howell. by the way, makes the
interesting announcement that a, d
result Of his marriage mission the
Canadian Northern steamships will
in future carry woman officer, who
will be known as the ships mother"
She will take orders direct from the
captain and rank next to him. A
special uniform is being designed for
her. with three gold braid rings on
style. She will take her meals in
the saloon at the captains table and
be in command of her own staff Of
assistants.
Names Passed On.
The women who will fill these po-
sitions have already been chosen, and
their names have been submitted for
the approval of the National Council
of Canadian Women.
The duty of the ships mother"
will be to see to everything affect
ing the comfort and well-being of
the women passengers. She will
have the fullest powers and be en-
titled to enter any woman's cabin at
any hour of the day or night.
College bred Men.
Mr. Fred Salter, European man
ager of the Grand Trunk railway,
says: western Canada is full of
men who are willing 10 become the
best husbands English girls could
wish for. These men are of a fine
type, many of them college, bred.
English girls must not think that the
Canad an farmer is a big, red-shirted
bearded man, with beetling brows
and whose clothes bristle with bowie
knives and revolvers. On the con-
trary, they are decent, Woodworking,
thrifty, ambitious, and the best phys
ical specimens in the world.
