Some idea of the inconvenience to
which the travelling public is being
put may be CLEANED from an incident
that occurred at Champion last Mou-

was unable to get away from the
station for four hours. In the sleep
er sat j. NJ Longyear, Jas. McNaught-
con, Senator A. T. Roberts and several
Others muffled up in overcoats, for
there was no heat on the car. All took
the inconvenience with the utmost
good nature, never complaint COM
ing from any OF them. This spirit Is
In evidence all over. Men who at
other times would rave over the in
conveniences that they have to put up
with now, simply look pleasant and
excuse the trouble in one way or the
other. The great majority of the Am
-erican people are trying to do their
-''bitr by taking the hardships with
good grace.

in splendid manner and while many,

One reading the papers from other
