EXCURSION RATES GOING BOTH WAYS

i For the benefit of those desiring to go to Fairbanks on the excur- sion train due in Nenana this eve ming, it is announced that the spe- cial one-way fare for the round trip applies both ways, giving Nenanaites the opportunity to go to Fairbanks Sunday night and return on the regular train on Tuesday. Announce ment is also made that passes will not be honored on the excursion train.
 i The excursion was scheduled to leave Fairbanks this afternoon at three o'clock, and the return will be made tomorrow evening, the ferry being scheduled to leave the Ne mana side of the river at 7:5O. ! The speeder, which makes regular runs between Fairbanks and Nenana, was withdrawn from the run today in order that it might. be used to help carry excursionists to Fair banks from points along the line, to connect with the Nenana special. And it is possible that it will be used on Monday to help carry the excursionists back to their camps, in which event it will not come to Nenana on that day. This point, however, had not been decided def- nitely up to the time of going to press.
 1 Four passenger coaches were talk en to the Crossing this morning to bring in the railroad workers from the camps south of Nenana, and it is expected that they will be in town early this afternoon. One hundred and nineteen boarded the train which left the end of steel al 9:30 this morning, and it was ex. pected that additional passenger: would be gathered up along the line

10 Discard Freckles,
Tan, Psn,ples, Wrinkles

It is said that creams containing
animal grease cause hair to grow.
You run no risk of acquiring super
fluous hair from using ordinary mer-
colfzed wax. There is nothing better
for a discolored skin. as the wax
actually absorbs the offensive cuticle.
The latter is naturally replaced by a
clear, smooth, healthy complexion,
full Of life and expression. It's the
sensible way to discard a freckled,
tanned, over-red blotchy or pimpled
skin. Get an ounce of mercoliZed
wax at any druggists and apply
nightly like cold cream, erasing in
the morning with soap and water.
Soon you will observe most re-
markable transformation.
The ideal wrinkle remover is made
by dissolving an ounce of pure pow
dered saxolite in a half pint of witch
hazel. Bathing the face in the solu-
ton brings almost immediate results

Light Punishment for Crime
With Which She Has
Been Charged.

WAPELLO, Iowa, Sept. 9.--As the
time for her trial approaches, it is
said that Mrs. Eva Munson, who Is
charged with killing Constable VIII
liam Wallace here last spring, has
evinced a desire to plead guilty to
a less serious charge than murder.
There is a rumor that the state
may consent to accept a lighter plea
and that she may be sentenced TO
ten years at Anamosa.
She had not denied killing Wal
lace, but she said she shot him be-
cause he had hit her husband who
was Ill.
She has been confined in the Keo-
kuk jail for several months.

Reduction In Sugar Prices and Bump-
co spud Crops in Minnesota
Puts Such Worries
Aside.

Time is approaching when that
patient burden bearer, Ultimate Con-
sumner, can get out the hewgag and
regale himself with little joyful
music, for prices are tumbling, &C
cording to an optimistic report COM
ing out of Chicago.
If people starve to death this win
ter it will not be the fault of the
farmer, for reports show greater
crops of better quality than were
produced last season. Commission
men and food experts generally
agree that this vast surplus must
result in lower prices. These have
already set in and are being felt all
along the line.
Perhaps the most noticeable de-
clines at present are in various class
es Of food. clothing and Shoes" says
the Chicago writer. Sugar has al
ready taken a decided flop and is
due for further decline, and experts
say it will fall to 10 or II cents a
pound before the end is reached.
Huge potato crops in Minnesota and
other states noted for production, of
this highly important food product
assures much lower prices and re-
moves ain fear of famine.
Perhaps the most hopeful of all
signs is the attitude OF labor.
There has been no reduction in
the price of labor or it's hours, but
the men are speeding up at most
gratifying rate. Bricklayers, who
have taken note of many men walk
ing the streets, seeking employment,
are now laying 80 to so per cent more
bricks d day.
"The same change goes for other
branches of labor, excepting always
political and municipal employees,
who still do just as little as possible,
spending practically all their time
agitating for higher pay and shorter
hours and berating any foolish en-
ploye who undertakes to give show
of service for his pay.
''The chief fly in the ointment Is
the hoggish attitude of the land
lords" says sthe writer of the Chicago
situation. They are still gouging
tenants to the limit and propose to
give them a still heavier dose when
October leases are made out. The
increased rentals will eat up all that
may be saved on lower-priced food
products Tenants are organizing for
mutual protection and the legislature
will be asked to pass an especial law
to curb the greedy rent hogs"
