Cases III winch the Rock Island. Cotton Belt, Iron Mountain and Pine Bluff and Arkansas piver railroads seek a permanent Injunction against enforcement of the 2-cent passenger
 ate on their line in Arkansas, were continued until April l, 1917. by Judge 'acob Trieber. The continuation re- suited from an application signed by Assistant Attorney General John P. Streepey, Attorney for the Arkansas Railroad Commission and attorneys for the railroads, asking that the cases be continued until the next leg stature, which meets in January, 1917. can make an appropriation with which tie commission can defend the cases. The commission announced more than a week ago that because of lack of funds the continuance proba- ply would be asked. The cases were set for hearing in Little Rock Decem- Ger 1. Originally they were set tor hearing in St. Louis December Il. Under the ruling, all roads in Arka1- sas will charge 3 cents per mile at least until April, 1917.
 The order of Judge 1'rieber making the continuance stipulates that the roads shall continue to give refund coupons with passenger tickets. These coupons will be redeemable if the 2 cent rate is held valid in the courts, but the roads will not be required to pay interest on the coupons should they be redeemed. The order also extends the time for taking testimony. The order will not affect the hearing of the Frisco railroads petition for a permanent injunction against the en- forcement of the commissions Stand ard Freight Distance Tariff No. 5, set for December l in Little -tock

The Primrose league was formed In
1884 in memory of the late Lord Bea-

primrose Is thought to have been. Be;l-
consteld died on April 10. 1851. and
the anniversary of that day Is termed
primrose day." when the Hover is
generally worn by his admirers and
also placed upon his statue in Parla-
ment square. The joke of it is. the
primrose was not the great statesman $
favorite flower. 1t was. however, the
favorite flower of Queen Victoria. and
when asked about the floral tribute to
be sent to Beasonsfield's funeral she
advised sending the primrose. my IA

ter got mixed up. and the delusion
sprang up that materialized in the

a few days later the dark friend of

VARYING FORCE OF RADIuM.
Powers Of the Three Different Rays
Alpha, Beta and Gamma.

There are three kinds OF so called
rays having their melting origin in RI
dunn. The three rays are known AS
alpha. beta and gamma rays. and each
of these has characteristic peculiari-
ties.
The alpha rays have range inside
of half an inch from their source, the
beta rays reach about three times as
far, and the gamma rays are yet more
penetrating. A thin sheet of paper or
film of tin foil or mica will effectual-
ly halt the alpha rays. A millimeter
OF lead or five millimeters OF Alumni
UNI viii stop TIE further progress of
the beta rays. but the gamma rays will
go through nineteen centimeters Of iron
or seven centimcters of lead before
their original intensity is reduced l per
cent.
The alpha rays consist of positively
charged atoms OF helium advancing Mt
IA velocity of 12.OOO miles a second. and
the beta rays are negatively charged
bodies projected Mt speed of quite
10000 miles In the same interval OF
time Roughly. the beta rays are n
hundred times more penetrating than
the alpha rays. while the gamma rays,
i'm their turn, ure II hundredfold as
searching as the beta rays. -Exchanse.

Persistent CARLYLE.

The father of Thomas Carlyle was a
stonemason and n good one. so his son
said. The elder was rs proud of his
stone walls as was the son Of his own
.French Revolution when he threw
the complete manuscript on the table
and said something like this to his
wife:
There, let the world have 1t. have
put my best blood into 1t.
But his patience and pride in his
work was to receive Il severer test. He
lent the manuscript to friend. who
did not safeguard it. As II result a
servant threw it into the fire. The
author was not mrthful by nature.
yet he went cheerfully at his work
again and for the second time put his
best blood into it.--BostOn Globe.
