SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 4. (Speclal.)
San Francisco and Portland sfopped
around on a treacherous diamond this
afternoon, and the locals proved to be
better "mudders." The groundkeeper's
task -was a strenuous one to sop up enough
of the rainfall to make-play possible.
The way the runs fell was peculiar, and
the fact that Portland did not leave a
man nursing his grief on aoy one, of the
three corners was more peculiar still. By
"way of diversion, a record number of dou
ble plays was pulled off, six in all.
All the runs had their birth in the deadly
base on balls. San Francisco went first
to bat, and the first two men up retired
in order. McFarlan missed the platter for
Irwin, and three piping hot singles made
two runs.
Two Portlanders went to rest in the last
half of the first, after which Iberg lost
track of the rubber and passed Nadeau and
Freeman. Blake rapped an easy one to
ward 'Pabst, who slipped and let the ball
go on to Meany. This let Nadeau home,
and the ball found its way to Zearfoss,
who dropped it after tagging his man,
Blake going on to third and scoring on
Francis single. '
There was only one out when Iberg
drew a gift In the second. Shay, Meany
and Irwin singled in a row. and the locals
were again one tally In front. That was
the way it stood during the remaining
periods.

TWO STARS TO PLAY SUNDAY
Louis Drill and Bobby Bluett Will Be
Jay Andrews' Battery.
Louis Drill and Bobby Bluett are In
Portland on a visit Several years ago
they were the batteries of the George
town College team, but since they have
graduated Into fast company. Drill hav
ing been catching for the Washington
Senators in the American League and
Bluett, pitching for the Taconta team
in the Pacific National League. Both
Drill and Bluett will play in the ball
game which Jay Andrews has arranged
for Sunday next at Twenty-fourth and
Vaughn streets.
Drill's graduation Into fast company
was forced. He was a student at the
Georgetown Law School and was the star
catcher on the college baseball team. The
Georgetown team and the Washington
leaguers usually played a couple of ex
hibition games each Spring before the sea
son opened, a thing which the faculty
stood for, but when Drill caught one
game for Washington as a try-out he was
dropped from the college for professional
ism. An effort was mado to have the fac
ulty reconsider its action, but it was fruit
, less. It was not until the gate was closed
that Drill Joined the Senators. He did not
get much of a chance to distinguish hlm
Bel during the first season, but last year
he was the mainstay behind the bat. He
is a natural and free hitter, has a good
throwing arm and is an all-round heady
player. Bluett,, while he was on the col
lege team was its best pitcher, and he
and Dr. White were the two best pitchers
that ever graced a Georgetown uniform.
"Ahlte has made his mark in fast com
pany, while Bluett has not been so for
tunate. Bluett, like Doc Moskiman, can
play in almost any department of the
game and will, when he gets so that he
can handle bunts, be as good as they
make them.
Jay Andrews and Drill are old friends.
While Jay was with the Minneapolis
learn In 1SSS-99 Drill was a youngster go
ing to school at Minneapolis, and during
the morning practice games whenever
Drill could get away from his lessons he
took a hand In the practice. Yesterday
was the first time that Andrews has seen
Drill since. Jay at once asked Drill to
catch In the Sunday game and the "Wash
ington backstop kindly consented. Bobby
Bluett will do the pitching. The battery '
be McBerney and Slavin.
During his rounds yesterday Andrews
met another ball player, one whom Jay
started in the business, Center Fielder
Harry Bey. of the Cleveland team In the
American League. Bey is traveling with
a theatrical company. Jay picked Bey up
at Peoria, 111., while he was playing with
the Peoria team in 1837. Since that time
Bey has developed into a star player.
CHECK ON STUDENTS' WORK.
President Campbell for Athletics, but
Scholarship Comes First.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene.
Nov. 4. (Special.) The faculty athletic
committee has devised a plan whereby the
scholarship of every member of Oregon's
athletic team may be determined. Each
week the Instructors will make a record
of the athlete's class-room work and this
record will be glyen to President P. L.
Campbell.'who will determine whether or
not the student's work is up Ho the Uni
versity of Oregon's standard. If the col
legian fails to make a record of U'C,"
which Is above 8 per cent, he will be in
eligible to take part in athletics until the
required standing be reached.
The action of the faculty was prompted
as a result of the impression that athletes
are not able to do honest college work.
Every member of Oregon's agile football
squad is making the reputation of being
strong students, but should any of the
men begin to show a laggard attention in
college work, they will be taken out of
the line-up.
President P. L. Campbell is anxious that
the local collegians make a strong athletic
record this season, but he Is not willing
to sacrifice the standing and reputation of
the Institution in order that such a record
may be made. Mr, Campbell states that
athletics are essential in a student's de
velopment, but scholarship comes first.
NEW ATHLETIC CLUB PLANNED
Tom Tracey Starts Movement to Re
vive Amateur Boxing.
There is a movement on foot to revive
boxing In Portland the Ministerial Asso
ciation need not get disturbed, for if the
sport is revived it will be held strictly
to amateur events with medals to the win
ners. Tommy Tracey and a few other
lovers of the game are discussing plans
for starting an athletic club patterned
after the Olympic Club of San Francisco,
and it will bo restricted to membership.
The plan, If It Is carried out 'successfully,
will be to rent a builoing In the business
section of the city and fit It out with the
necessary paraphernalia and to give one
boxing contest a month. The contests will
not be confined to boxing alone. There
will bo wrestling, fencing, club-swinging
and bag-punching. There will be no
purses awarded to the winners, but in
stead suitable gold and silver medals will
go to the winners of the various contests.
All contests are to Be strictly foA ama
teurs and no one who has ever boxed
for money will be allowed to enter in
any of the contests. Portland boasts of a
number of clever amateur boxers, fencers
and club-swingers and bag-punchers.
When the club gets going invitations will
be Issued to the various amateur athletic
clubs In the Northwest.

New Cross-Country Champion.
NEW YORK, Nov. 4. John J. Joyce, of
the Pastime Athletic Club, this city, has
won the senior cross country champion
ship of America In a contest at Travers
Island, the country home of the New York
Athletic Club.
By defeating the field Joyce took down
the numbers of such men as Newton,
Grant, Schutt and Valentine, each of
whom occupies a prominent place for
championships won over long distances.
Schutt Is a Cornell student who spread
eagled the field of two-mllers in the inter
collegiate contest last Spring, while Grant
but recently took the measure of the two
mile amateur record which stood for many
years. The course covered about two
miles and was run over three times.
Joyce's time was 32 minutes 23 45 seconds.

Zachar eaylor's Tomb.
Cleveland Press.
"Z. Taylor, Died 1S50."
That is the inscription on the tomb of
Zachary Taylor, 12th President of the
United States.
A correspondent who recently visited the
tomb of "Old RAygh and Ready" sayB for
over half a century It has lacked the care
of a kindly hand, and Is fast falling Into
decay.
Apparently nobody cares.
The tomb lies five miles from Louis
ville, and 13 off the road. Ivy riots over
the weather-beaten blocks of granite. The
fastenings on the door are red with rust.
So far as Is known, no key has turned
the locks for 50 years. Visitors are rare.
It is doubtful If half a dozen tourists visit
the tomb during a twelvmonth.
And this neglected spjrt is the last rest
ing place of the hero 6f the Black Hawk
and Florida wars. Here Is the dust of
that great soldier who, with 4000 Ameri
can riflemen drove In retreat 20.000 Mexi
cans under Santa Anna at Buena Vista
Here are the remains of the American
Cortez and President of the United States.
He who conquered the swamps and ever
glades of Florida and made Mexico sur
render Is forgotten by his countrymen.
Not one in 10,000 knows the place of his
sepulchre. '

Big Indian Exhibit,
THE SUGGESTIONS FOR 1905
Secretary of Chicago Exposition
Thinks Climate Will Prove a
Great Drawing Card How
,to Interest People.
CHICAGO, Oct. 30. (Special correspond
ence.) Chicago's motto is: "I will." This
also means she has.
No city on earth has mado such prog
ress as Chicago during the same length
of time. She is destined some day to be
the greatest railroad and commercial
center in the world. She will most likely
be headquarters for everything pertaining
to the development of the West from now
on.
The reins of municipal government
passed from an illustrious sire to a worthy
son nearly ten years ago, and no Jar or
perceptible friction has marked the pop
ular and successful administration of Car
ter Harrison II. The city has continued
to smash all records of commercial growth
and Increase In population under the di
rection of its able official head, who is
one of the youngest men In public life in
America today. Mr. Harrison believes In
Chicago and the great West. He Is of
them and for them. His Identity has been
cast in their mold and his future is
wrapped up in theirs.
When asked what the West should do
to Increase Its population rapidly, the
bright young Mayor of Porkopolls replied,
"Advertise." He spent his vacation early
this Fall. In Idaho and has, if possible,
become more Impressed with the bound
less possibilities of the West. He believes
its Immense irrigation project fostered
both by the Government and private cap
ital, as they are, constitute one of the
most Important and significant fields of
human action open to mankind. He looks
forward to the time not so far ahead
when what is now the arid West will be
the literal garden of the world, and given
up to" a superior system of Intense farm
ing. Horticulture and agriculture will re
ceive "equal attention and homes will be
created for even millions of free. Inde
pendent, high-minded American citizens.
Interested In 1905 Fair.
Speaking of the Lewis and Clark Cen
tennial, the Mayor manifested a keen in
terest. "One thing," he began, "that the
World's Columbian Exposition did for
Chicago was to convince us that nothing
is impossible for this city to undertake
and accomplish. We have come into the
possession of a self-confidence which at
all times and under all circumstances
says": 'I Will I think this Is the great
est heritage Chicago received from the
world's fair held here about ten years
ago.
"I believe your people can seriously In
terest the American people in your cen
tennial. I mean you can create a general
Interest East of the Rocky 'Mountains
and, in fact, throughout the country.
What would help do this would be to
make the Lewis and Clark Centennial a
distinctively Western affair.
"It Is true you cannot compete with St.
Louis in the expenditure of money, but
you can provide a different class of at
tractions and entertainments and see to
It that they are essentially Western in
their scope and influence. Get all the In
dian, Oriental and South American ex
hibits and attractions you can, and ar
range them so as to make the most at
tractive display possible. If a specialty
be made of the Indians and Indian ex
hibits I think that of Itself If properly
advertised, would attract many visitors
from East of the Rocky mountains.
"Your committee on amusements or en
tertainments will have to get busy and
stay so to do their work successfully. Your
publicity man has a big job on his hands.
Our people, as a rule, do not know
enough of the West, and any educational
work along that line will be good."
During the course of the interview
Mayor Harrison said he did not Relieve
expositions created friction between cap
ital and labor, when their buildings were
finished and men no longer had work; that
the Marshall Field Museum for Chicago,
to cost $6,000,000, was a direct result of
the fair here; that architecture through
out America had received an impetus for
good as a result of the exposition, and
the fair was not the sole cause of rail
road tracks being elevated in Chicago,
but that the loss pi human 'life at grade
crossings was largely responsible for this
policy.
Kohlsatt Takes Opposite View.
H. H. Kohlsaat, formerly publisher of
the Chicago Record-Herald, and one of
the directors of the Chicago Exposition,
does not agree with others that the fair
was a great benefit or indeed .any benefit
to Chicago. Said he:
"The World's Fair .was a great injury
to Chicago, from which it has not yet
recovered. This city has been vaccinated
against expositions and Is now immune.
Tho situation reminds me of the story of
the Irish wake. The mourners upset one
of the candles, setting fire to the winding
sheet, and the corpse, house and all were
destroyed. Next day the neighbors of
fered consolation to the widow, who re
plied: " YIs, it was too bad; but poor Mike
wlnt up In a blaze of ghlory, and we saved
funeral explnses.'
"Chicago's ambition seems to have been
dissipated In the great exposition effort
and vanished simultaneously with the
"White City.' I do not think a representa
tive business man in Chicago could be In
duced to become identified with another
exposition, except In such a way as would
not carry any responsibility or require any
of his time. In a broad sense, what was
done here may have Inspired the youths
of Kankakee, Kalamazoo and other places
to .put forth more strenuous efforts to
live more Important lives, but from the
utilitarian commercial view-point the fair
was a conspicuous failure."
"The section of Chicago around the fair
grounds was overstocked with hotel and
rooming milldlngs of all kinds, put to
gether in a hurry and not" securely or
properly built. They were not desirable
assets, and when the Exposition closed
they became vacant and remain so, in
many instances to this day. They broke
the men who built them, and the lnsur-
j ance companies and every one who had
anything to do with them lost money.
yBefore the fair every man, woman and
child carried Chicagos banner, but they
don't do it any more. Local pride has had
a fall.
"We had a local permanent exposition
which brought the farmers and merchants
to Chicago once each year to do their
buying and trading. Since our big fair our
big merchants on State street have con
tinued to urge the re-establlahment of our
former local exposition, but all In vain.
.These men are representative and the In
terest sought to be conserved Is purely
commercial, aria yet they cannot make It
go. The truth of the matter Is that Chi
cago has lost much of its ambition and
civic pride., . ,
How He Explains It.
"I have a theory about this. Our people
became familiar with the park, the build
ings, 'The White City,' and spent much
time there. The tout ensemble was beauti
ful, magnificent! They'd return to Chicago
with its crudeness. Irregular and rutty
streets, unsightly buildings andgenerally
forbidding surroundings and they became
discouraged. The 'White City,' as the fair
was called, passed away, and with It
seems to have gone Chicago's hope and
aspiration. The affair at once created
a taste and appreciation of the beautiful
while at the same time it showed us that
we could never attain to such a standard.
"Yes, our patronage came chiefly from a
comparatively small area. Your Oregon
Centennial will essentially depend upon
local natronace for Its success."
Climate a Drawing Card.
H. O. Edmonds, formerly secretary of
the World's Columbian Exposition, and
now secretary of tho Northern Trust
Company here, thinks the Oregon climate
will prove one of the strongest drawing
cards of the Lewis and Clark Centennial.
"Let your publicity man," said he, "get
attractive literature Into the hands of the
people in the Mississippi Valley and East
ern States along In March and April of
1905, and thus get their minds turned to
a Western trip for a vacation. Follow this
up with brief data along In May telling
them what they can see on a trip West
and what the trip will cost, and. possibly
suggesting an Itinerary for them. This
would produce good results. Our people
want to see the West. As for my part,
I'd rather go to Portland In 1305 than to
St. Louis in 1901.
"While Chicago suffered business de
pression for somo time after our fair. It
was caused by general conditions which
prevailed throughout the country and not
by the fair. Portland and Its tributary
district are handicapped by lack of popu
lation, but this may be partially overcome
by Judicious up-to-date advertising."
The question as to whether the World's
Columbian Exposition was a detriment or
a benefit to this city may never be defi
nitely settled, satisfactorily to the mind
of those who hold to both views, but cer
tain It Is that Chicago has mado phe
nomenal strides since that historic event.
Chicago Is first In many big things. It
Is the greatest railroad center in the
world, 2S systems of railroads centering
here. A total of 1830 trains enter or leave
the city every ,24 hours. Of these 1190 are
passengers and 649 are freight trains.
There arc 1500 miles of tracks within the
city limits. Of the passenger trains, S21
servo suburban and 369 through traffic.
This city also has the largest packing es
tablishments in the world. The products
of this line of .Industry in 1900 were J257,
000,00. Her foundry and machine-shop
products the same year were 544,000,000.
Her drainage" canal, now nearly completed,
has cost over $33,000,000. The citizens who
are achieving these varied wonders are
themselves the- most varied group resid
ing in any city on earth, and speaking
some 40 foreign languages. Thus awakened
by memory and vision to consciousness
of her great future, Chicago may well
keep mindful of the civic legend that has
Inspired her thus far, "I will."
EDWARD EVERETT YOUNG.
THEATER PROGRAMMES.
Miss Grace George Is the Owner of
Finest Collection in the World.
New York Press.
Newspaper mention of the fact that
Miss Grace George has Just paid $65 for
a theater programme recording the debut
of Edwin Booth reminds me that man
agers used to be more frank than they
arc today. The programme referred to
bears this line: "Tressel, his first ap
pearance on any stage, Edwin Booth."
It was at the Boston Museum that the
16-year-old Booth, came forth, three years
before his father's death arid shining In
Junius Brutus' glory. Hence the an
nouncement, a little ad for the house, yet
generous to the boy. Managers of today
do not advertise it broadcast that their
players have had no stage experience, but
keep active press agents busy In a sort
of Minnesota shake-down Informing the
public of past achievements. Any wide
awake mummer of this age would assume
a career if he had It not. Miss George's
collection of playbills is said to be
the finest -private one In the world. The
Players' Club has a large and valuable as
sortment, and another adorns the walls
of the Green Room Club. There- are also
fine collections In the Boston Theater, In
the Walnut-Street Theater (Philadelphia),
and In the Green Room Club of London.
The largest number of programmes gath
ered together by any one man was believed
to be the collection of the late Edward
Marble, the playwright, who had nearly
3000. Many of these now belong to Miss
George, while some hang on the 'walls of
the Professional Woman's League. Not a
few are In a storehouse In Brooklyn. Pres
ent day collectors may be adding un
awares to their worldly possessions, for
there is no telling when the John Jones
who plays the butler In Broadway this
evening may be heading a company of his
own In which case the programme bear
ing his name for the first time may be
worth anywhere from $50 to $100.
Janauschek's Pitiable Plight.
Philadelphia Ledger.
The story of Mme. Janauschek's long
Illness and dependent poverty Is very pa
thetic, very touching, as Is always the
story of the once prosperous artist who
has outlived the favor of the public. This
Is not an Instance of the proverbial
"clgale," that sang all Summer and found
herself without provision against the Win
ter's cold. Janauschek was never either
careless or Improvident; but she made
mistakes and suffered losses, as people do
In all professions, and when the autumn
of life found her as It finds so many
women alone and helpless, with only
strangers to care for her, the pltifulness
of It Is accentuated by the memory of her
brilliant past. For Janauschek's career
was brilliant, though the present genera
tion has scarcely known the dignity and
beauty of her art. It Is 40 years since
she first came to America, being then in
the maturity of her powers and at the
height of her Continental reputation, and
those who can recall her performances In
German have had no subsequent experi
ence to dim .the impression they made, in
tho depth and. breadth of tragic power,
the classic nobility of outline joined with
Infinite refinement of technical detail. She
never was heard to equal advantage In
English, the strange tongue always ham
pering her delivery, and In later years
there were physical limitations to her ex
pression of many of her nobler roles, so
that she was driven to a lower range of
melodrama, to which she gave a strange,
sad dignity. But always there was to be
recognized the Intellect of a great artist,
and a public that owed much to her In her
prosperity must surely owe something to
her in her distress.
ARE FASHIONS IN CRIME?
WILLIAM A. PINKERTON TALKS
- OF DETECTIVE BUSINESS.
Says Crook With Silk Hat and Good
Clothes Is No Longer
in Style.
William A. Plnkerton, detective, was In.
Portland yesterday for the purpose of In
specting the local branch of the Plnker
ton Detective Agency. Mr. Plnkerton
looks the part. He has Sherlock Holmes
beaten a Salt Lake block for reticence,
and is altogether Just the sort of person
qne would single out as the directing gen
ius of the greatest secret service organi
zation on earth. A tall man, stout of
habit, florid of face, with a level gray
gaze. A wonderful poker face Is his. One
which would bet a savings bank deposit
on a bobtailed flush and never vibrate an
eyelasft. Here Is a man who must be
strong on the confessional. He would
have had the Spanish Inquisition beatep.
With the Plnkerton face trained upon him
a man begins to think of his crimes and
brace his feet.
Now be It understood this International
terror to evil-doers has nothing In com
mon with "Old King Brady." He' would
be as uncomfortable in false whiskers
and gum shoes as a priest in motley. As
a sleuth of nickel literature he will not
do. He Is a broken Idol to tho elevator
boys who read "thrillers." His type Is
the bank president, whose bookkeeper,
having played the races or wined chorus
girls', takes morphine for breakfast. His
hair and mustache are becoming a bit
grizzled, but It is hard to believe that he
was a trusted secret service agent in the
War of the Rebellion. He doesn't look
the years to which ho confesses.
As has been Intimated, Mr. Plnkerton
Is not garrulous, and the Interviewer had
much trouble In Inducing him to talk.
However, a Key West cigar has power
to work miracles, and when the great
man lit one and settled Into a bit, chair
in the Portland lobby the struggle was
over.
"Me talk for publication? Now, look
here; I'm not going about with a brass
band accompaniment. How many men do
we employ? Say, that's an old story.
Nobody cares about that. Well. 1200 to
1500. Yes, they're located all over the
world. No, I'm not Just returning from
Japan Been back three months. Pleas
ure trip. Over In Japan, understand. Yes,
we do some business there. Crime on the
Increase? (Suspicion of a smile.) Well,
It's holding Its own. Styles and methods
have changed, though. The swell crook
In a plug hat is passe. The yegg man is
the correct thing In safecrackers and
burglars now. You call 'em hobo crooks
out here. Yegg man means a tramp burg
lar, and It's more elegant than the word
hobo. Your genteel burglar confines his
operations to actresses' diamonds and
Sunday newspapers. Raffles Is as much
a dead ono as Jesse James. The fellows
who mako the work for us sell fake jew
elry on the streets of Portland one day.
then stick a can of nltro-glycerln In their
clothes and go out to crack a country
bank. They take longer chances, succeed
more often and are harder to get than the
old-fasholned, high-toned kind. Over a
hundred banks were robbed In this coun
try last year by this sort of operators.
They will ride a brakebeam with enough
nltro-glycerin In their coat pockets to
blow up Mount Hood. We caught six of
these gentry about Christmas last year
after a bank robbery. They were enjoy
ing the fruits of their labor. Had a tub
ful of bottled beer, a roast turkey and
trimmings under a railroad culvert. The
bunch of them didn't have enough clothes
to flag a handcar, but they had $50GO tied
in their rags. This is evidence to meth'at
tho prooks don't go in for broadcloth
any more.
"The whipping post would help to make
the yeggman's business unpopular, and
I'm In favor of adopting It all over the
country. Give these fellows a whipping
In public as they do in Delaware. There
a criminal Is whipped In a public place
and sentenced afterward. Every blow
brings the blood and leaves a reminder.
There Is less crime in Delaware than any
other state In the Union In point of popu
lation. Tramp crooks are afraid of the
lash and emigrate.
"What kind of a man does It take to
make a detective? Say, there's no mys
tery about this business. All rot about
disguises and Foxy Qulller tactics. Any
man who would make a good business
man will do for a detective. Provided he's
honest and has good habits. He must be
honest. You can better afford to tie up
to a thief than a liar.
"Yes, our business Is mostly with banks,
railroads and big manufacturing concerns.
We don't handle divorce cases at all. The
man who wants to put a watch on his
wife will have to go somewhere else. He
can't get a Plnkerton. We refuse $20,000
worth of that kind of business every year.
"How did the agency begin? Well, iny
father, Allan Plnkerton, settled at Dun
dee, 111., away back In '42. Illinois was a
new country then and there was a great
deal of horsestealing. Father was suc
cessful In running down a good many of
them, although It was out of his line. He
was a cooper then In time the railroads
heard of him and offered him a Job to
catch freight thieves and Induced him to
move to Chicago and open an agency.
That was In 1S30. Afterwards ho was ap
pointed a special agent of'the PostofRce
Department and made It hot for the postal
thieves. He accompanied Mr. Lincoln to
Washington to be inaugurated the first
time. That old story about Lincoln going
In disguise Is a fake. The truth of tho
matter Is this. Some of my father's men
discovered a plot to assassinate the new
President when he went through Balti
more. My father reported the matter to
the Republican National Committee and
was assigned to deliver Mr. Lincoln- safely
In Washington. The latter was to make
a speech In Harrisburg, Pa., Just before
going to Washington, and the conspirators
figured out that he would take a certain
train. He didn't take that train, how
ever. My father smuggled him Into a local
train to Philadelphia, after cutting the
telegraph wires so that those In the plot
couldn't be posted. At Philadelphia Mr.
Lincoln went Into a sleeper on a regular
train. A Bcction had been reserved for
him and he went immediately to bed. He
was asleep when the train went through
Baltimore early In the morning and when
I he got up the train was In the yard3 at
Washington. That s all there was to that
trip. There was no disguise, and, in fact,
it was quite a simple matter."
At this Juncture Mr. Plnkerton seemed
to realize that he had said a good deal
and the level gaze was again directed at
the interviewer. After that there was a
lull In tne conversation.
Mr. Plnkerton Is accompanied by his
secretary and .his nephew. Allan Plnker
ton, of New York. The party will be In
tho city only a short time before proceed
ing to Chicago, Mr. Plnkerton's home.
Achievements of the Century.
Leslie's Weekly.
Fifty years In the life of a mountain,
a continent or a star Is an infinitesimal
and Insignificant segment of recorded
time, but In the expansive, diversified,
many-sided and ever-changing life of the
greatest of modern business enterprises,
a sreat railroad system, 50 years sums
up a marvelous amount of history. In
the opinion of that most 'eminent Amer
ican, Edward Everett Hale, three out of
the five greatest achievements of this
20th century will be railroad-building
tho completion, of the Trans-Siberian
Road, the Cape to Cairo line In Africa,
and the Pan-American road. We all
know that the wonderful advancement of
modern civilization has been measured
in a large degree by the advancement of
our modern railroad systems. These have
been the greatest of clvllizers, of pioneers,
pathfinders, builders of empires and re
publics. It is the railroad locomotive that
has sounded tho marching call to the
Invading hosts who have conquered the
wilderness and desert places of our own
great West, and who are today bringing
under subjection to the needs of civil
ization the vast stretches of Siberia and
the Innermost wilds of the Dark Continent.
Silks Fashionable in Days Gone By
London Dally Mall. J
Smart Paris, already satiated with the '
delights of shot taffetas. Is now turplng
her attention to the thick-ribbed silks that j
used to be fashionable in days of yore I
silks that stand of themselves, so splen- i
did and substantial are they. Students of ,
old literature concerning dress will know
that gros de Naples had a vogue in the
-zvs ana sos or last century;, and it Is this
very weaving, under different names, that
it Is to be brought before our notice
again. In addition to the substantial eilks
which will be highly welcome for their
richness, their refinement and their suita
bility for Autumn and Winter wear there
are several new cloths to be considered.
Among them the boucles are prominent
in several colorings. The background of
one may be blue, brown, green, black or
mushroom, while the boucle or raised part
Is of another shade. Boucle actually
means ring, curl, or loop; hence the new
fabric will be recognized directly it is seen.
It is a distant relation of the zlbellne
cloths, the surface of which Is hairy, and,
of course, is not an entire stranger to us.
for boucles have In the past known a ereat
and deserved vogue.

What St Does to IVien
So much has been said about Varicocele In medical advertisements that
every man ought to know whether he has it or not. It is a solid fact, how
ever, that we run across men every day that are complaining of weakness
who have been so negligent as to not discover their trouble until it has run
them down and weakened them mentally and physically.
What It Is
"Varicocele," a prevalent disease of men, is a dilation or enlargement of
the veins of the spermatic cord In the scrotum, which -from, various causes
becomes corded and knotty. It usually occurs on the left side and produce3
dragging sensations In the groin and back. It Impairs the general health and
causes much worry; your brain becomes weak and you grow despondent.
Don't Wait
No sensible man should wait. He should realize that the longer he delays
the more the organs affected will waste away. Don't live and linger DEAD
to the pleasures of the world, when we have an absolute cure for your weak
ness and can make you a happy, manly man. with mental and physical pow
ers complete. We cure you without cutting or pain. We don't ask you to
take chances of our skill and cure; we will take your case on bank guaran
tee; not a dollar need be paid unless cured. Call or write today for book.
