Full Information
By w. S. McNary.

Boston, Nov. 14.-William S. Me-
Nary. chairman of the Harbor and
land commission reported to Gov.
toss. late today, that he had secured
full information from Grand Trunk
and New York, New Haven x Hart
ford Railroad sources as to the actual
situation as regards the Grand Trunk
Southern New England Railroad ex-
tension to Boston and Providence. The
report is as follows:
First, that the work on the South
ern New England extension from
Palmer to Providence has been stop
ped because the Grand Trunk which
is substantially an English owned and
financed road, cannot get the funds
at present in England or Canada, the
Balkan war scare contributing quite
largely to this result
Second, that the Palmer Providence
road would in all probabilities be
built in the spring because of the
money already expended and contracts
which had been let for steel railway
materials bridges, etc.
Third, the projected Southern New
England or Grand Trunk extensions
AAoiii " iitt JtiANticii " DVSlO'i
en- the north and from Providence and
Blackstone to Boston on the south will
not be built because of the practical
impossibility for the Grand Trunk
Railroad to secure the many millions
of dollars needed to finance the plans
for construction.
Fourth, that the Grand Trunk
Railroad will act cautiously on its
plans for the Canadian construction
Tor the time being and will probably
so slowly during the present Borden
Conservative government in Canada.
which fayors the Canadian Pacific
rather than the Grand Trunk.
Fifth, that the New Haven road
and the Boston Il Maine will double
track its lines from Concord, n. H
to White River Junction and it's Con-
necticut river lines, from White Riv-
er junction to Greenfield, Mass. and
VIII thus give double track facilities
from White River Junction to Boston
and substantially to New York
Sixth-That the New Haven and
Boston & Maine system will give to
the Grand Trunk either traffic facili-
ties over its lines to Boston or track
age facilities by which the Crank
Trunk can send business to Boston or
to other New England points either
over the New Haven and Boston &

SKETCH OF THOMAS MARSHALL

Thomas Riley Marshall, Democratic
nominee for Vice President. was born
in Manchester, Indiana, in 1854 Gov
ernor Marshall has spent his entire 90
years in his native State. Graduating
from Wabash college in 1878, when he
was 81 years old. he practiced law in
Columbia City, Indiana. until he was
elected Governor two years ago. He is
. member of many clubs and holds
LII d. degrees from Wabash. Notre
Dame and the University of Pennsyl-
vania. He married Miss Lois l. Kim
sey of Angola, Indiana, in 1885.
When the gubernatorial race was
OH two years ago there were a number
of well-known Indiana Democrats
cunning for it and Marshal had not been
heard Of. But he has friends, and those
friends urged him to run, and told him
he was the only man who could save the
day. Marshal ran-to please his
friends-and he was nominated and
elected.

Surveying the 2O-Mile Limit

Lovelock, Nevada, July l5.-The es.
tablishm ent of permanent boundary
lines on the 20-mile limit of railroad
land and a definite conclusion of just
what sections are located within these
boundary lines is now under way by
two Surveying parties engaged in this
locality. Following closely this work will
be that of the Government biologists,
who will determine the character of
the land itself, as to whether it contains
mineral or not. Although this work
is being conducted under the immediate
supervision of the Government. the
railroad shares one-half of the expense.
The surveying crews are working east

BRIDES OF IS AND UP
D.y of the Sensible Woman Who Has
Passed Her First Youth

The marriage for the fourth time OF
Miss Lillian Russell suggests several
nroblems. Has q woman of 80 a better
chance of marrying than she used to
have? Is the age at which women are
now marrying advancing? Has a
woman nearing middle age more attrac-
tiops now than she used to have for the
marrying man
From inquiries made in London 1t
seems that all the questions can be
answered in the affirmative. The mar
rage registers of the present day supply
good evidence Of the changes which are
taking place. For instance. at st.
M%arylebone Church, which has al
ways been o representative n for
marriages of all classes, the record shows
many brides of 35 and upward. Some
of these were widows, but the larger
number were spinsters.
Up to within the last five years, said
an official of the church, youth had
things nearly all Its own way; o IL
is the sensible woman, past her first
youth. who is coming into her own.
Five years e young people used to
rush into marriages; now people wait
until they have more common sense
and a little more money. And the at
Effectiveness of the nice woman who has
passed the thirties has a lot to do with
the change. 81
Such women, said a writer on social
matters recently, know exactly the
value of marriage and what it means.
They do not expect too much and they
have also a comfortable sense Of humor,
which is invaluable. The ordinary
little troubles Of marriage do not affect
them. AS for personal appearance, q
woman of wei 80 is one of the best
types of womanhood New York Sun.

Salt Lake Tribune: 1t has been an.
nounced for some time that b Inter
state Commerce Commission was con-
sidering the express rates in operation
in this country, with q view to revising
them, or making them consistent and
less oppressive than heretofore.
The Commission has now concluded
it's investigation of the subject. and
yesterday mornings Tribune carried q
full report Of the conclusions arrived at
by that body, and of the revisions that
1t has made of express rate schedules.
with tables showing nov these revisions
will apply as relates to Communities In
Utah either sending or receiving express
from outside points. These tables show
a very substantial reduction all along
the line. or course they apply only in
interstate commerce. but proportion
ately interstate rates would be sure to
fall correspondingly.
The tables presented are. very com.
plete; they relate to four different rates
on packages, from 8 pounds to 100
pounds, and they specifically fix the
rates between New York and Salt Lake,
between San Francisco and Salt Lake.
between Seattle, Tecoma. Washington
and Salt Lake, and between Omaha and
Salt Lake. and between Denver and Salt
Lake.
These reductions will be received with
abstraction by all who have been accus-
toned to use the express facilities, aud
by all who have any occasion 20 use
them.
The commission has taken great pains
in its hearings, and undoubtedly has ar
rived at a conclusion which will be ap.
proved by the public all over the United
States. And now that the Commerce
Court has. by the Supreme Court of the
United States. been shorn of it's appel
late jurisdiction in reviewing the acts OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
we presume there can hardly be a doubt
that these red uctions in express rates
will presently 60 into effect as ordered

IF BABY HAS A HERNIA
D.. Edith B. Lowry Imparts valu'
able Information to Mothers
Regarding Their Children

. A rupture or hernia Is so common
with babies, especially boy babies, that
it is surprising that so few mothers
really understand the condition.
Try to imagine o person with a bag OF
coiled tubing. The bag is double, con-
sisting of q lining and an outer covering.
Some way q tear or rip has appeared in
the lining. This allows the tubing to
come ont between the lining and the
outside, making an irregular lump.
That is just the condition with a rupture
or hernia. The intestines or bowels
have come out between the lining
muscles and the skin through a little
tear in the muscles.
A good housekeeper would sew mp the
rip or tear in the lining of the bag with.
out any question. That is what O
surgeon does when he operates for
hernia. He sews up the tear in the
muscles, 30 the intestines cannot come
down.
If the baby is very young an opera
tion may not be necessary. for there is O
chance thai the muscles will grow to.
gether again if the intestines are held
in place for a while. A truss is a CON
trivance for holding these in place. II
does not cure the trouble. We see
many advertisements OF Rupture cured
without o knife" These are fakes.
| The most common treatment theses ad.
vertisers use is to inject q little paraffu
or way under the skin to plug up the
tear, al a cork would stopper a bottle,
This may keep the intestines up for 9
time and the patient thinks he is cured
However, 1t Is very common for this
wax to become displaced a little and an
examination will reveal that the tear
has become larger than ever. These
cases usually have to be operated upon
eventually.
II the hernia is not repaired, there II
danger of what is known as a strangu'
lated hernia, that is, the intestine
comes down between the muscles and
becomes caught so hat it cannot &c
back into place. This is q very seriou'
condition, for the blood supply is usually
cut off, and the intestines will become
gangrenous (dead). This may result
in death of the patient within a few
hours. II a rupture ever becomes
caught in this way, there is nc time Il
be lost until the abdomen is opened by
a surgeon and the intestine Is released.
Ruptures may be congenital, that 10
present at birth. or it may be caused by
heavy lifting or straining. For thi'
reason, a small child should not be al
lowed to strain himself by trying to lf
a heavy object. Some children are in
clined to attempt tasks too great fo
their strength and must be restrained
Violent crying and straining at stoo
may produce a rupture if there is a veal
spot in the muscles. This is one reason
a baby should wear a band around tn
navel for the first few weeks after birth

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT
Little Confidence in Obtaining Results

Little Confidence in Obtaining Results
The Interstate Commerce Commission
has ordered big reductions in the rates
charged by the express companies. The
new rates will probably go into effect
some time before the end of the present
century, or about the time the District
Attorneys of Nevada collect the back
taxes due the State and counties from
the Wells, Fargo Express Company.
The youngest infant now alive will be a
graybeard long before this express com
pany is forced by the District Attorneys
to obey the laws of Nevada. Uncle Sam
may do better, but we doubt it.-Elko
