15 0 Thin s, Kea If You Have the Energy -to Acl dA to itas d Here Is an Opportunity for People of Discernment to Make a Lot of Money 1 . so a. New 'Country Railroad Building . 'Now This chance is summarized in the few words above: "Land in a new country, railroad building now." The railroad is building through the land. Moreover, the railroad is being backed by the government, and there can be no mistake about it. The country is Central British Columbia, and the railroad is the Grand Trunk, said by all experts to be the greatest transcontinental railroad line in America. The country it opens up in British Columbia is a veritable "Farmers' Para dise," as it is called by the government experts who were sent to examine and re port their expert opinions regarding the possibilities of theountry. The land is level and cleared. That is it has no growth upon it, generally speaking, excepting an immense crop, in Summer, of wild grass, which cuts fre quently, from four to five tons of excellent hay to the acre. There are small patches of alder, cotton wood and poplar here and there, just enough to afford fuel and timber for fencing. The climate i3 simply fine. It is warmer in Winter than Minneapolis, while the Summers are simply perfect. Long sunshiny days make crops grow as if in greenhouses. . .., YOU CAN GET SOME OF THIS LAND Of course the railroad is not completed yet. If trains were running through this land, as they will be within a few months now, you couldn't buy an acre of it for less than many times the price it is now offered at. But now is the time to act. Why should you not just as well secure some of this land now get in at the begin ning and make a few thousand dollars, just ad well as any one else. Hundreds of wise, shrewd people will make money here. - - ': HOW TO FIND OUT ALL ABOUT IT Call at our offices and talk with Mr. Moon, the vice-president of the associa tion, about this country. He knows all about it, and will gladly give you any in formation you wish. Also he will show you government reports, survevs and the field notes of the government engineers made right upon the ground, describing every detail about every quarter section of the land. These reports show the ex act location, the character of the land and the amount of timber growth, if any, upon it. They show the creeks, streams or springs upon the land and every other matter about which a prospective investor might be interested. In fact, in these reports you have the advice of a qualified official expert as to the character and desirability of each piece of land. You can really tell more about the land from these expert reports than you could tell if you were actually upon the ground yourself. You Do NotHave to Be a Citizen, or.

WALKS INTO POLICE TRAP Arrested After Clinse, He Says He .Didn't Know He Had Done Any thing AVrong Until He Read About It in Newspaper. By a trap laid by Detectives Coleman and Snow, Charles Tabler, the young; grocery clerk wanted for attempting to kill Marie Buskuhl, a domestic in the home of T. J. Seufert, of 705 Brazes street, by administering chloroform, was caught late yesterday afternoon, and is In the City Jail, in default of bail. An Information charging assault with intent to kill lias been prepared by Deputy Dis trict Attorney Fitzgerald. The case, will be called today. Tabler was arrested In Mount Tabor. He had been absent from his work and his home ever since the night of the at tack on the girl and the detectives had been vigilant in their search for him " without result until yesterday. The young woman herself assisted in his cap- - ture, -She received . a telephone message from Tabler durlng the morning pleading for an interview. At the suggestion of the detectives whom she informed, she made an appointment with him. and ac companied by the officers, went to the meeting place at the terminus of the Mount Tabor carline. Prisoner Makes Confession. When they reached the rendevous. Tabler saw the officers and tried to es cape through a grocery store. The offi cers gave chase and cornered him. Tabler trembled when he talked. He admitted having given the woman chloroform, but said he could not account for his ac tion. '"I must have been drunk when I did It," ho said. "I did not even know that I had done It until I picked up the paper the next morning and read the ac count of It there. I must have done It, If they say so. What was my motive . I didn't have any. I don't know why and can't . imagine why I should have done such a thing. After I read of the case in the paper I was afraid to be seen so I did not go to work and I have been living In a rooming-house on Front street, ever since." Refusal to Wod Angers Him. Tabler had been acquainted with the young womfin several years and at one time had asked her to marry him. On Monday night, the girl being alone in the Seufert house, Tabler crept in and stuffed a chloroform rag under her nose. She lost consciousness for a moment and when she regained her senses, screamed until the neighbors were aroused and the police came. As she was harmed in no way and nothing was stolen frdm the house, the police were at a loss to ac count for a motive for chloroforming the girl. v Recent Information given the District Attorney's office by Miss Buskuhl has given rise to the theory that Tabler In tended to kill her because she would not marry him. but that he became frightened and left her. She told Deputy District Attorney Fitzgerald that she partially regained consciousness at one time and that Tabler was then feeling her pulse and listening to her heart beats and that he then applied the anesthetic again.

ALL SEE WONDERFUL SIGHT Man AVtih Head Where Feet Should Be at St. Vincent'.- A man with his head where his feet ought to be was the plea by which one of the house doctors at St. Vincent's Hospital drew, visiting surgeons, internes and nurses to a room on one of the corri dors. One after the other they slipped away and returned. "Wonderful, wonderful." repeated one after another. "You should see him Doctor Ovalle has him." Kach one who had . time to slip away came back more serious than the last and finally every one became convinced there was some scientific mystery worth Investigating. The wonderful man was being shaved by "Doctor" Ovalle. the orderly, and for greater convenience with regard to the lighting conditions of the room had turned the man in bed so he Iaj with his head at the foot of the bed and his feet on the pillow. His head was where his feet ought to be. Each one saw the wonder, stole si lently away and then why then the next sucker was fooled. TINY STAMP IS BIG AID TEX SUFFICE TO BUY QUART OF MILK FOR PATIENT. One Thousand Taken by Christmas Shoppers Helps Red Cross to Nurse Consumptives. What does the Red Cross Christmas stamp mean? That you are asked to spend 1 cent more on every Christmas present or letter you send. It means that this tiny piece of money, . multiplied by thousands, will yield a great sum for the maintenance of a fine work the care of and cure of those afflicted with tubercu losis. Each stamp sold will make three per sons happy the one sending it, the one getting it and the "unknown" whom it will help. Every stamp sold means an other weapon placed in the hands of those battling against the white plague. Ten pennies will buy a quart of fresh milk, one of the best liquids for tuber cular patients.. Whenever JOOO of the Chrlsmas stamps ar sold a few more days are placed to the credit of those who suffer but can be saved. The reports of the various committees of the Visiting Nurse Association, which has charge of the sale of the Christmas stamp this year, are most encouraging. Since the sale of Red Cross Christmas stamps began in the corridor of the Post office, muoh confusion has resulted con cerning their purpose. Being the size of the ordinary postage stamps, several people have concluded that they were a new kind of stamp issued by the Gov ernment, and in the Postoffice a collec tion of postal cards has been made bear ing these stamps, instead of the regular postage stamps. They will be held for Jack of postage. The use of the Postoffice corridor for sale of the stamps was granted to the American National Red Cross Associa tion by the Treasury Department, whioh has full authority over the postoffice buildings. Postmaster Young received notice from the Treasury Department to permit the nurses to use the corridor .for that purpose. Vanconrer "Drunks" Decrease. VANCOUVER, Wash., Dec. 2. (Spe cial.)
