Tacoraa will be eliminated as termi
suds for what is now .known the
"North Coast Limited" train of the

The announcement that this change

authoritative. The elimination of
Tacoma and Seattle as terminals for
this palace on wheels will in a meas
ure be compensated for by the run

Seattle over the Northern Pacific in

Sound coaches will be "hooked on"
for the run through to Chicago.
IT'S A GOOD THING TO REFER

making any important purchases
therein. Before you buy is the time
to look up the matter. Ask questions.
Find out if the store you intend pa

that you learn if it sells the qualities
it claims; if it treats ts customers
honestly and fairly, then, if satisfied,
buy there. Do all the asking yon

Excursion Matter Are Also In-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2&Free
passes may be issued to bona fide
excmploycs of a railroad who are
traveling to re-enter the service.
Passes cannot be extended to the
families of employes who died a nat
ural death while in the service of
railroads, although the privilege is
accorded to the family of employes
killed in the service. These are
among the rulings announced by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
yesterday.
The commission holds that a rail
road may provide in its tariffs that
whenever, because of mishaps, or ac
cidents, passengers delayed beyond
their ticket limit or so as to curtail
their stopover privileges, the conduc
tor or other agent may by endorse
ment on the ticket extend the time
to cover such detention. This is to be
honored by succeeding conductors
on the company's line but no carrier
can provide such extension over lines
other than its own, except when pro
vided in a proper joint tariff.
The commission also has author
ized changing (by November 30) the
terms of short time excursions far
tariff under certain conditions. When
the excursion is limited to not more
than three days, changes may be pos
ted one day in advance in two pub
lic places for these reasons:
Change of dates or . meetings, ex
tension of. the return limit, addition
al selling dates, additional top over
privileges, etc
If the excursion is limited between
three and thirty days cancellation of
tariff or change in its terms may be
made on like notice of three days.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2&Women
turned upon women yesterday in the
cause of the ballot. And It was no
less a person than Dr. Anna How
ard Shaw, president of the National
American Woman Suffrage Associa
tion, who did it.
Dr. Shaw, addressed art enthusias
tic rally of Chicago suffragettes held
in tha afternoon in the assembly
hall of the Fine Arts building. Rep
resentatives of ten local suffrage or
ganizations were there and every
representative was looking for some
thing interesting. None expected
just what came,
"One of the great obstacles to,
women's suffrage we have in this
country today," said Dr. Shaw, "is
our great body of idle women. The
industries that occupied their grand
mothers do not occupy the grand
daughters and this has taken from
the woman the opportunity of being
producers of wealth.
"They are consumers, not produc
ers. We are depriving them of all
incentive to intellect. We are using
the state's money in educating them
and then throwing them back on the
state as dead lumber. We are send
ing girls out from our colleges with
the desire to. serve and are giving
them nothing to do. They are not
enough professions to go round and
what else' are we offering them?"
TO CONFER ON OPIUM.
American Expert Sails, For Shang
hai On Important Errand. .
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 28,-Dr
Hamilton Wright of Washington
sailed yesterday for the Orient to at
tend the International Opium Con
ference at Shanghai, January 1st,
which has for its purpose the assist
ance of China in the avowed desire
of that empire to abolish . opium
smoking among the Chinese people.
Dr. Wright after explaining that
this country can use at most but 100,-
(XX) pounds of opium for medicinal
purposes, called attention to the fact
that the customs records show im
ports of half a million pounds of opi
um and an additional 150,000 pounds
of opium for smoking. He said that
from 50 to 90 percent of the opium
in this country was put to illicit uses.
"Among the Chinese of this coun
try," said Dr. Wright, "about 20 per
cent are confirmed opium smokers,
30 percent occasional smokers, 25
percent use opium on holidays, and
upon other infrequent occasions and
25 percent are total abstainers.
Among the white people opium
smoking is confined almost entirely
to the criminal class."
