The announcement had just been made that Senator Elkin 1 * committee on interstate commerce was to meet next November to prepare their bill w.uch is the outcome of the hearing in this city in the early summer. My friend is not a railroad man nor in sympathy with railroad men. He is a self-made business man whose eye teeth have been cut after sharp con tact with the world and who has fought his way to the tortune he pos sesses. “I have just returned from a trip through the South and West,” he said to me, “and I have come to the con clusion that if the States ever need the help of the railroads in their in dustrial development ti is right now. Railway extensions, double tracking of existing lines and improvements in transportaton are asked for all through those sections of the country. The States need them more than the railroads need the extensions, for it is a fact that the railroads are having about ail the business they can attend ;o at the present time and with their present facilities. While certain new building that is absolutely imperative is in progress or soon to be so, capital is fighting shy of extensions solely account of their fear of State or legislation which will make investments more dangerous than they have been in the past. So any new projects in the air are held up' They will be in my opinion until iornething definite develops as to the temper of the people themselves to ward the railroads. “I believe in proper governmental tion to do anything looking toward tariff revision, then he does not know the temper of the aforesaid Republi can stand patters. The patronage for the new adminis tration has about all been parceled out and many of the leaders of the Republican party do not care a rap what the president thinks of them or their attitude. They are going to re fuse' to make a river and harbor bill and many other big appropriation hills in the hope that it will help to cut down the deficit in the treasury, thereby hurting the internal improve ments of the country, instead of mak ing the necessary appropriations and cutting down the tariff duties on many articles, thereby letting in more im portations and getting the necessary revenue to fill the hole in the treas ury.

Many stories have been told of the ingen ious tricks resorted to in the sale of illicit whiskey, but the “pillow” is the latest and most novel. Burton Holmes, the lecturer, who has been in the mountains of Tennes see recently, tells of discovering the pillows thus; “I had joined a camping party near Hie small town of Jellico, which is on the State line between Tennessee and Kentucky,” he said. “Some one sug gested a trip up the mountains to get pine needles or balsam pillows from the mountaineers, who sell them to rhe few tourists that reach this wild region of the Blue Ridge.

"Not a little surprised at the ques tion, I replied that we would like a few of both. My answer evidently puzzled him. for his eyes nai rowed into a peculiar squint, and he told us he did not have any women’s ‘made up,’ but that we could have loose bal- ~ani for these at the rate of 50 cents i pillow. He said he had men’s pillows all ready, but they would be $1.50 each. “Finally we were fitted out with enough balsam to make pillows for the women, and each man in the party had under his arm a rude sacklike pil low that felt as if it contained a brick. We had all been wondering what made the pillows so heavy until curiosity finally overcame one of the men, and : with the help of a penknife he started j an investigation. "The mytsery was soon solved, for when lie withdrew his hand a full quart of moonshine whiskey came with it. Needless to say. none of us that had purchased ‘men’s pillows’ could use them to sleep on until slight aj- terations had been made ” How a Beautiful Hymn Was Written (Our Dumb Animals.) One day Mr. Wesley was sitting by ; £ an open window, looking out over the bright and beautiful fields. Presently a little bird, flitting about in the sun shine, attracted his attention. Just then a hawk came sweeping down towards the little bird. The poor thing, very much frightened, was darting here and there, trying to find some place of refuge. In the bright sunny air, in the leafy trees of the green fields, there was no hiding place from the fierce grasp of the hawk. But see ing an open window and a man sitting hv it, the bird flew, in its extremity, towards it, and with a heating heart and quivering wing, found refuge in Mr. Wesely’s bosom. He sheltered it from the threatnlng danger and saved it from a cruel death. Mr. Wesley was at that time suffer ing from severe trials, and was feeling the need of refuge in his own time of troubles, as much as did the trembling little bird that nestled so safely in his bosom. So he took up his pen and wrote that, sweet hymn: “Jesus, lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly, While the waves of trouble roll. While the tempest still is high." That prayer grew into one of the mo-t beautiful hymns in our language, aid multitudes of people, wnen in sor row and danger, have found comfort while they have said or sung the last [/ of that hymn. i r quickly after the first de posit.

It is pure selfishness on their part of course, hut the fact remains that when conditions need to be remedied we can get the remedy very e.i^ly by talking with the men who manage the railroads direct. We do not have 1 to put up the plea that ths will help or hurt that Republican or this De mocratic community, and tho work ing management of railroads now has as little to do and cares as little for politics as the producers themselves. That could not he so if the rate mak ing power was in the hands of a poli tical rate making commission, for it would be their duty to create a bureau cracy that would help the dominant party. Every practical political poli tician admits this to he a fact and you can not get away from it. ..“If Congress will simply strengthen the hands of tin* Commission in their fight to abolish rebates, to do away with discrimination of all knds for all causes in all sections of the coun try and let ihe regulation of raff's alone, they will satisfy the business men of the United States and they can satify them in no othe way." It was a pretty good line of talk that he put up at all events. I deal it out to you just as the cads came, so that you may look over his hand and see if he does not hold a pretty strong hand to “stand pat” on. • * • The chances are that the coming congress has been framed up by the Republican leaders so that it will be practinrMy a do nothing congress, and if anybody thinks that the new and added prestige of the president is go ing to move the stand patters in the Republican party on the tariff ques- to Adopt Plan in Future Abandon Cooked Diet. Annie lionise Ambrose and Edgar Wallace Conahle were married recent ly at Los Angeles according to the doctrines of the “simple life,” says a Los Angeles dispatch. No unnecessary word was spoken by the Rev. D. I. Jenkins, who performed the ceremony. The word “obey” was omitted. Because it is a custom to take a honeymoon trip, the bride and bride groom walked from the church to their new home and began life at once with a menu that abolishes meats ami all cooked foods, their principal articles of diet being nuts', fruits and vegeta-j hies. At the wedding supper which j followed the ceremony no cooked foods * were served. The party sat under trees and ate nuts and fruit. A garden and orchard on their farm will furnish food, and so far as pos silile no articles of raiment not made hy the wife will lie worn by either. Simple methods will rule their home in everything, and this includes the dispensing with shoes. Of Cholera Morbus with One Small Bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Chol era and Diarrhoea Remedy. Mr. G.
