Receiving Earnest Attention.

The problem of reorganization IS receiving the earnest attention of the directors of the Boston and Maine railroad and as soon as a definite plan has been evolved a request will be made to the legislature for the neces- sary legislation. We believe that this is a matter upon which public opin- ion should make itself strongly felt, so that there may be no delusion in any quarter that the public will per init the perpetuatiOn of the present unsound organic structure of the Bos- ton and Maine railroad system by contributing sufficient revenue for the payment of unearned rentals upon the leased lines of that system
 The report shows that the total in come of railroad companies in this state for the year ending June 30, 1914, was s153, 3,612,34S, and the total expenditures, including dividends, were 5S,69S,744, leaving net deficit of $5,086,396. There was a decrease from the previous year of $3,38O,9SO in total operating revenue and an increase of $2,O6S,126 in operating expenses. A decrease of Der of persons employed. During the year 25S persons were killed and 265 injured on the railroads of the state, the total of killed and injured showing a decrease of PTS from the previous year and of 324 from the average of the preceding ten years.

DOG MOURNS FOR WiLDlNG
Late Tennis Players Sammy Is Pc,
OF British Soldiers on Fir
Ing Line.

To the list of strange pets kept by
tho British soldiers in the trenches
must now be added the favorite dog,
Sammy, of A. +. Wilding, the tennis
player. Wilding's friends in London
knew the little Irish terrier well, for
it was the insepsrable companion of
the great tennis player.
Wilding, it seems, was killed in his
dugout, buried alive by Jack John
son." which pitched into the trench
in which he was on duty. The Lon
don correspondent of the Nottingham
Guardian says that private letter
from the front mentions that Sammy
went about the trenches whining for
Wilding long after the worst was
known. Tho dog will be well looked
after, for the soldiers love these pets
of the trenches.
Only few days ago soldiers of
the Second Rifle Brigade rescued a
little canary from a deserted house
which had been almost shelled to
atoms. On its cage was ticket:
Please hook after the little bird" So
the men carried it off with them to
their trenches and take no end of
trouble to see that it gets groundsel
and the seed its likes.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro
nounced it local disease and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven Catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti
tu,ional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured BY F. j. Cheney
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
TEN. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for

Arrest Deer in Saloon.

A wild deer was actually arrested
In Stamford. Conn. and for disorderly
conduct at that. Even worse for the
deer's reputation, it was taken in a
saloon.
There is nothing in the way of a
nature or other fake about this story.
Two deer Were eamDoIiEg in a park
when the early morning traihc fright

woods. The other sped through the
streets until it espied the swinging
door OF u saloon on which a large
glass OF beer was painted.
The deer dashed into the saloon,
scared the bartender and broke bot
tied goods and furniture before it was
captured and bound. Then the police
department was called and a detective
sergeant took the deer in the jag
wagon to q woods on the edge of tho
city and iberais.. -

II she sat up with sick neighbor
she spent the evening telling about
what 'tnrrible mess" she had left
her house in, and how difficult it was
for her to get away, and how hard she
would have to work the next day to
make up for it. One afternoon while
Mrs. Curtis, her neNt-docr neighbor
was away, her sister Unexpectedly ar
rived from another city.
Mrs. Conner, seeing the visitor and
her grips on the Curtis front porch,
and knowing the Curtis house was
locked, invited her to come over to her
house and wait for her sisters re-
turn.
That evening when both the families
were on their front porches, Mrs. Cur

The suit filed in Denver las week
{ in the district court to enloln the
state land board from granting a
lease for the mining o! coal land up
on school lands previously sold with
reservation of mineral rights will
test the validity of such reservation,
saws Rural School Notes. Should
the injunction be granted and made
permanent. loss to the schools of a
very great heritage irolr the nation
will follow. The state has over half
a million acres of land undeIlaid
with coal and belonging to TIE
schools. Reservation OF mineral
rights in state lands has done Won
ders in Minnesota. That state is
able to reduce taxation for state pnr-
poses to a minimum, and yet has
funds for many purposes. That Il
man should beable to buy coal lands
at the price of grazing or agricul-
tural lands and the school fund
have no redress is absurd, especially
when the land is sold with a rcser-
vation. The reservation, however,
is IL regulation of the state uoard of
land commissioners and is expressly y
neither 10y the statute
nor by the constitution of the state.
The Educational Council has
standing committee on the reserva-
ton Of school lands and funds. 1t
