HILL IH AY OPERATE

OWH OHOPERTIES Railway President Says Co. Expects to Be in Mining Business Before Long. Hibbtng, Minn., May 2. Louis W Hill, president of the Great Northern Railroad; D. K. Phllbln, superintendent of the Great Northern ore properties. and A. M. Chisholm of Duluth are on a tour of the range and are lookin over the Great Northern ore properties. 'We expect to be in the mining busi ness pn the range ourselves before long," Mr. Hill said today. This is interpreted as meaning that ith the cancellation of the lease on Hill mines by the steel corporation next year the Great Northern will go Into the ore handling and ore marketing business. Mr. Hill said that he would not soy today that the Great Northern wouH acquire a fleet of boats to carry Its ore down the lakes. He takes an optimistic view of the iron mining situation and announced that the Great Northern will handle in excess of 12,000,000 tons from the Mesaba range this year. "J" RAILWAY NOW HAS A BEER blXty UarlOaaS Of FOamy Nectar Distributed Along Way Points. The United States Steel Corporation, I through one of Its subsidiary compa- I nies, toe J rauway, is now engaged in other tasks than those connected with the steel business. Every mornlng It runs & beer special from Milwau- I kee destined for Indiana and Illinois points. The trip ends at Porter, near I Chesterton, and by the time the run Is I made thousands of lives have been saved in Jollet, Dyer, South Gary and other points. Sixty carloads of the foamy stuff are consumed dailv bv the thirsty Inhabitants along this route. "Probably few people know what the beer run is," said P. Hennesy of the E.. J. & E. this morning. "It is mighty lmpotant thing for our road Just the same, and I doubt that the average person would believe that we send out a train about 11 o'clock every morning that hauls as many as sixty carloads of beer mostly from Milwau kee, but mixed up from everywhere," prints the Jollet News. The "beer run ' pulls out at 11 a. m. and every effort is made to give the1 big train of suds a clear track and rush I ig tram ot suas a clear track ana ru It' through. Beer Is put off at Junc tions and stations along the line and by the time the train leaves Porter, Indiana, the beer has disappeared. Men at the "J" yards are busy put ting things In shape for spring. The box cars that are used for yard offices are being house-cleaned, track beds are being raked up and everywhere is an air of activity and business. ST.

Primitive folks did not need laxatives. They ived outdoors, ate plenty of fruit, and all of their food was coarse. We modern people are different. We exercise too little, eat little fruit, and our food is too fine too rich. We simply can't have our ten yards of bowels clogged up, liver choked with sour bile and stomach full of four effete, matter and feel well. It means that the food and waste retained in the stomach and thirty feet of bowels ferments decays. The decay creates poisons, gases and acids, and those poisons are sucked into the blood through the very ducts Intended to suck In the nutriment. Then we have sick headache, become dull, bilious, tongue coated, nervous, meals don't digest, and we feel miserable all over. So we must make our choice. '.We" must like like primitive folks, else

picnic

Culver will be shown then for the first time. After the luncheon at noon the revelry will begin in earnest. Then will come the athletics "stunts," always a delight to the Chicago picnickers. Then, too, will come a review of the Culver cadets by the visitors, the young militarists appearing In drills ana feats of horsemanship. The young men also will appear In athletic contests that will afford thrills for the visitors. Th athletic "stunts," of course, will have as the star feature the annual ball game between the Chicago exiles and the Hoosiers who are Hooslers still. And then there will be that famous horseshoe pitching contest between the veteran (lingers, John Ade of Kentland, and J. M. Studebaker of South Bend. Other contests swlmmins:. baseball throwing by women, hat trimming by men, catching the greased pig and other dignified sports will be indulged in with high glee. Awarding of Prises, The party will go to the academy piers to take boats for a ride around the lake at 4:30 o'clock. Following this the cadets will appear on the review ground for a dress parade and cavalry drill. Then supper will be served, at which time the prizes-won by tho sue cessful contestants will be awarded with a fine flood of oratory by Charles Arthur Carlisle, the South Bend epl gram builder. Thon will follow depart ure for Chicago, South Bend, Indianapolis and other points of interest- to tired picnickers. All that is necessary to make the day at Culver a joyful one is the weather, and that has been taken In charge by a committee consisting of Strickland W. Glllllan. chairman; Kin Hubbard, Louis F. Smith, George Frink and Ste phen B. Fleming. Gillilan has already issued a weather forecast for the day, as rollows: WEATHER 4 -CAST. For Saturday, June 1 For Indiana and abutting property, clear, with salt rising temperature. Thunder-heads, but no dunder-heads, appearing Just north of Logansport. Heavy northwest winds, shifting from Chicago to the sedgy selvage of Lake Maxinkuckee. Shorers of bons mot (O you French plurals!) and storms of Hail-fellow-well-mets, about noon. The glad hail's tones (Hailstones! Ha! Ha!) will be heard falling everywhere. This weather stunt has devolved en tirely upon the chairman of the committee because none of the other members except Miss Fawn Lipplncut, an affinity of Abe Martin, could be Induced to make the trip to Baltimore and Fawn was no help. The effort has been greater than even an Indiana novelist of the fourth large edition can lmag me, so don t try it. The methods we have employed have been original and the processes secret So don't nose In, Two urgent telegrams from President Nesbit to the chairman, spurring the latter to action, will be used to create an atmospheric disturbance late In May, so that the solar system may be thor oughly purged before June once. If that will not do It, this Joke will be sprung: "What branch of the governmen service resembles & sheepfold? "The wether department." That ought to create a general storm with low barometer. This day In June Is going to be rarer than the steak Is when you ask the good and faithful servant at the club for "well done." If this plan should not pan out, th members of the society may do the! own panning, the undersigned chair man will be hard to catch, and the rest of the committee will wear linen col lars as disguises. STRICKLAND GILLILAN. Chairman Weather Committee. Sherman Grace, Miss May Cook and Mrs. H. Gustafson and daughter Myrtle, M. Sloviac of Chicago spent Tuesday here on business. Mrs. Frank Hitchcock of Center av enue spent Tuesday at East Side, visit ing friends. DYER Adam E. Kaiser transacted buslnes in Chicago yesterday. The Dyer Commercial club will hold their regular monthly meeting this evening. John L Kellman made a business trip to Chicago today. August W. Stommel transacted business In Chicago today. H. T. Kellman was a Crown Point business visitor yesterday. we must take artificial means to move the excess bile and waste matter In and out of the system. The safest, most harmless and effective stomach, liver and bowel cleanser and regulator for men, women and children is delicious Syrup of Figs, which doesn't irritate, gripe or weaken. Its effect is the effect of fruits. It is composed entirely of luscious figs, senna and aromatlcB. Don't think you are drugging yourself. Syrup of Figs can be constantly used without harm. Ask your druggist for "Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna," and see on the label that It Is prepared, by The California Fig Syrup Company. This Is the only genuine the old reliable. Refuse, with contempt, the so-called Fig Syrup Imitations sometimes offer ed to deceive you.
