 tension of Power.

Washington, Oct. 30.-The Ma tiOnal Convention of Railroad Commissioners, composed of railroad commissioners from all the states in the Union, today passed a resolution favOring the extension of the powers of the Interstate Commerce COmmis- sion so that the members of the commission would have urisdic- ton over the securities of rail- roads as we'll as the operation of the roads.
 It is pointed out that much speculation in the stock and bonds of the roads has caused the operators tu use the rail- roads more to boom stock and force the market price up and down. while the inS i,Irrs rraprd a rich harvest, and that the man. agcInent is OftemtimcS more con- cerned with stock operations than with the real management of the road.

car In the shade of "a huge oak tree
Mildred stepped to tine ground ana
walked around the trunk Of the tree
and seated herself beneath its massive
branches. Cain followed her and
threw himself at her side. The battle
ground she had chosen was where
there was an open space In the forest
OF trees and where a view could be-
had for miles 20 the west. Below them
rolled valley two or three miles in
width and then the ground gradually
rose until Il ended in the tain peaks 81
"A chain OF hills. The white clouds

The sound of her voice aroused

has influential connections, with

It is hard to credit that a father

because he is nOtional.
Are you fit for marriage, morally

questions to the satisfaction of any
third party go ahead and
