SIX MORE ROADS
ENJ0|N Low RATES
All Minnesota Lines Set Bene-
fit Of Sanborn Decision.

Stockholders of six railroads-the
remaining common carriers operating
in the state of Minnesota not af-
fected by the recent decision of the
United States circuit court of appeals
in the Minnesota rate cases-have
been granted temporary injunctions
by the United States circuit court
against the operation of the 2-cent
passenger law of 1907. OF these six
roads stockholders of five were grant
ed temporary injunctions against the
operation of both the 2-cent law and
the commodity rates.
The roads affected by the latest Or
der are the St. Paul, Northwestern,
Omaha, Great Western, Rock Island,
and Minnesota and International. The
last named is a new case, instituted
only week ago. An original bill was
introduced in its behalf and the in
junction prayed for and obtained Is
only against the passenger rate.
. The defendants, restrained from en-
forcing the law of the legislature and
the order of the railroad and ware
house commission, offered opposition
only to the original findings of Judge
Otis, master. in chancery, and the af-
firmation by Judge Sanborn. They
agreed that if the court held to these
findings and the affirmation, sufficient
grounds had been shown by the attor-
neys for the stockholders for the in
clusion of the railroads involved in
the benefits of the Sanborn decision.

SMOKING AID FOR ATHLETE
Total Abstainers Stand Higher I'm
Glasses, However, Says DR.. Mey-
Ian, Director at Columbia.

That smoking is injurious to the
mind but not to the body is the con-
clusion drawn by DR.. George L. Mey-
Ian, director of the Columbia univer-
sitN gymnasium, as result of some
extensive investigations just made
public. The tests show that in gen.
eral college smokers make better
athletes, while non-smokers stand
higher in classes.
Doctor Meylan took as the subject
Cor his tests 233 Columbia students,
l15 of whom smoked. The results Of
these experiments showed that sixty
six smokers gained an average Of
eight pounds in weight and IL cent?
meters In height, as against six
pounds and IL centimeters for those
who did not smoke. But in scholar
ship the nonsmokers forged to the
front. The smokers averaged 81 per
cent. with per cent. of failures, as
against SO per cent, with only per
cent. of failures, for those who did
not smoke.
