BUSINESS IS VERY GOOD. LOCAL AND THROUGH TRAFFIC ON RAILROADS BOOMING. It Is Said That Many People Get Restless and Ride to Quiet Themselves. Both railroad and interurban ticket agents in Richmond state that the business out of this city has not been as good as it is at the present time in sev-' eral years. .Local and through traf-, fic 13 booming 'for the railroads while the interurbans are doing an excep-. tionally heavy local business. ' A local i ticket agent states that he thinks the people of the country are getting rest-j less and to do something, go on short j trips to rest themselves. He said that a few years ago, had a railroad man predicted the present heavy travel and, the number of people going and com-: ing, he would have been laughed at. The interurbans fill a long felt need.' The farmers as well as thos:t3 living in! the small towns have hourly service to , points wherever they may wish to go and consequently would rather ride on the interurbans than to drive. ORDER IS RESCINDED. The Pullman company has rescinded its order that the doors of compart-j merits in its sleeping cars must be left j open when only one berth in the com-j partment has- been purchased and is oc-, cupied, according to the statements given out at the local Pennsylvania station. This rule has provoked much1 protest from travelers who contend that it deprives them of all privacy, if they from choice or necessity purchase a berth in a compartment. The object of the rule was to compel a person desiring to ride in a comartment to pay for at least two berths in order to be able to keep the doors closed. -"V TRAVEL TO BASS LAKE. From the number of inquiries reWATCH COFFEE And Watch It Carefully. Any brain worker who depends on thought for his success in life, uses up j energy, by brain work, a varying amount of the delicate particles of phosphate of potash and albumen of which the brain and nerve centers are composed. The fine, microscopic particles of phosphate of potash are found in quantities in the pores of the skin after the brain has been used actively. This must be replaced from food, or brain fag and nervous prostration set in. This breaking down of the little cells each day, from brain work alone, is a natural process, and the, "cells cau readily be rebuilt from the fight sort of food, if tho system is not Interfered with by drugs, but if an increased amount of cells are broken down by the use of coffee, trouble then begins. Frequently it first shows ,in dyspepsia, lack of power of the bowels to operate properly, palpitation of the heart, or soma other lack of vitality and healthy vigor. There is but one thing for a sensible man or worrssn to doquit coffee absolutely. "Hard io do" you say.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH.

VENNKL. ceived by local ticket Agent Blair at the C, C. tV L. station, the Bass Lake travel will be exceptionally heavy. The demand for the Bass and Bruce lake folders which were issued recently by the C, C. & Lv, is good. The Pennsylvania offices, too. are receiving a large number of inquiries in regard to the northern Indiana resorts. Richmond always sends a large number of people to the smaller lake summer places during the months of July and August. INCREASE ON THE EAST. It is learned that the probable object of the visit of R. E. McCarty, general superintendent of the lines west of Pittsburg to this city, Monday, was to look after enlarging the local freight vards east of town. The Increasing business here, it is said, will be large ly responsible for the increase. ROADS LOSE MONEY. "The railroads of Indiana and Ohio have lost money on the Sunday and special excursions to the regular excursion points this year," stated a trav eling passenger agent of Indianapolis to the Palladium. He was able to speak - authoritatively, as his line has catered largely to this class of traffic. He attributed the loss largely to the adverse weather which prevailed up to a few weeks ago. which served to cut the excursion traffic to a great extent. Then again, the general unrest which has prevailed among the railroads in the different states where there has been adverse legislation, resulting in the announcements that excursion business of the above character would be discontinued, has led the manage ment of many of the large amusement enterprises to curtail their advertising to a great degree, fearing that their greatest boon to business, the Sundayexcursion, would soon be a thing of the past.

IIIOIAIIA'S NEW LAW WILL BE GIVEN TEST

Officials of Penitentiary Michigan City Plan to Comply With It. at LIFE PRISONERS AFFECTED. GOVERNOR MUST APPROVE AND THE NEXT STEP WILL BE APPOINTMENT OF A SUPERVISING COMMISSION. Jeffersonville, Ind., June 27. James C. Ogletree, sentenced to the state reformatory from Floyd county, and Frank Harris, sentenced from Clark county, will be the first prisoners of the reformatory to be treated according to the provisions of the law passed at the last session of the legislature which provides for the sterilizing of criminals. The two men are also the first to be sentenced for a life term for a crime of the nature committed by them. Ogletree, who was arrested and sentenced three months ago, is charged with abusing his five daughters. Harris, who was sentenced ' recently, was charged with abusing his stepdaughter. Dr. H. C. Sharp, reformatory physician, said that he would confer with Governor Hanly at once in regard to treating the prisoners according to the provisions of the new law. According to the law the approval of the governor is necessary. If the governor approves the next step will be the appointment of a commission which will supervise the surgical operation called for in the law. Dr. Sharp was largely instrumental in having the law enacted by the lasti legislature, as he believed it would , prove beneficial to society. The bill when it was before the legislature, was widely discussed and met with, some opposition. j "I have been somewhat costive, but Doan's Regulets gave just the results desired. They act mildly and regulate the bowels perfectly." George B. Krause, 306 Walnut Ave., Altoona, Pa.' A GOOD LAWN. The Best Vay to Prepare the Ground and Sow the Seed. A good lawn may be made either by laying sod or .growing seed. If turf is used, the lawn Is sometimes ready for use in less time than when seed Is used, but practically the difference Is very slight. Fewer lawns are made from turf every year. The turf or soil is nearly always obtained from a nearby field. It abounds In coarse grasses and pernicious weeds. The former may be got rid of after considerable trouble, but the latter rarely ever. Sod laid lawns are nearly always uneven, seamy and varied in color and texture. Their cost, too, is much in excess of seeding the lawn down. A lawn produced from a mixture of good, new, reoleaned seeds of the finer grasses and clovers is superior in quality and texture to the best sod obtainable. To obtain the best-results from sowing, the ground should be carefully dug over not too deep, six to eight inches will be enough and nicely leveled off; then sow on broadcast a good fertilizer, 600 pounds to the acre, or about ten pounds to every 15 by 15 square feet. Rake this in and roll it or flatten it with the back of a spade; then sow seventy pounds of some good lawn seed to the acre, or one pound lo every 15 by 15 feet. Sow half this quantity walking one way and half walking at right angles to it, so as to get even distribution.' Do not sow in windy weather, and be sure to rake the seed in, and after sowing roll It well or beat it fiat with tho spade. Those seeds that are deeply birried will not germinate, and those that are exposed will be scorched by the sun, blown or washed away or taken by the birds. Whenever necessary to sow in summer it is betterto mix with rye or oats to protect the tender shoots from the hot sun. Suburban Life. The "Coney of the Bible. There Is a queer little rock animal found in thousands In all rarts of Cape Colony, South Africa, and called by the Dutch "daasje" (pronounced in English "dassie"). This little creature hamany other names, such as the coney, daman, rock badger and rock rabbit. It 13 found also In Syria and is really the "coney" of the Bible, for one of the psalms contains this verse, "The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats and the rocks for the conies," while in the book of Proverbs we read. "The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks." The South African daaje is a pretty gray, furry creature, merry "and sun loving, and when taken young makes a charming pet. Amy Sutherland in St. Nicholas. The Drawback. Mile.

A Practical Joke.

Onsirsal, When the stagecoach developed into the railroad train the road agent -developed into the train robber. liut, while the road agent had various methods of plying his vocation, the train robber' necessarily works ou tho same lines. The road agent contented himself usually with small values; the train robber often captures a fortune. I was once jogging along iu an old fashioned stagecoach, nine insides and four outsules. I was an insider. There had been no robberies ou that line for a long while, nad we thought very little about such danger. Hut there was a facetious youug man inside be bad just escaped from an eastern college who thought it a pleasant pastime to frighten the women, lie rattled on about road agents and how they workeel till every' woman aloard and some of the men became very uneasy. There was a middle aged man iu the stagehe looked like a farmer who' finally undertook to head ofT the youngster. "Nobody needn't be skrered in this stage s' long 's I'm on it." he said. "I've got a weepon. and I know how to use it. Pes'ides. there ain't no road agents on this line, anyhow." "What'd you do If one of 'em came down on us?" asked the collegian. "There ain't none comln down, but if they do I'll give 'em cold lead. My name's Leadbeeter." And he laughed at his pun. Not long after that the youngster climbed out of tho window on to the top of the coach to suioke a cigar, he said and Joined the outsiders. He told them about the boastful man inside and said it would be a good joke to get up a mock robbery to see how the fellow would act. Having got his mind on it, he couldn't get it off and began to devise methods for carrying out his suggestion. The others tried to dissuade him, saying tnat Mr. Leadbeeter might be as good as his word, and somebody might get hurt. But "Johnny," as they called him, every moment became more and more infatuated with bis proposed prank and said he wovrld make Mr. Leadbeeter throw up his hands before he could get hold of his "weepon." No one seemed disposed to join him, so he said he would do the job alone. All on top promised to remain passive and wished him success. Johnny got down from his perch, jumped up on the coach step with his face at the window, where Mr. Leadbeeter was. sitting, and, putting a revolver within an inch of the man's nose, ordered hiru to throw up his bauds. Mr. Leadbeeter lost no time in doing so, and Johnny opened the door, saying: "I'm Black Bill. I am, and I want yoir people out here. Come out, every one of you." Mr. Leadbeeter was the first out. Johnny relieving him of his revolver as he stepped down into the road Johnny handed out the women gallantly, winking and making explanatory faces at both men and women. Those on top got down, and Johnny, flourish Ing bis revolver, scarcely able to keep a straight face for merriment. In stentorian tones ordered all to line up alongside the road, which they did obediently. The pretended road ageni went through Mr. Leadbeeter first, relieving him of $3.74, all the fund3 he had about him. Johnny rubbed his revolver under the victim's nose and rated him soundly for having no more. "You white livered son of a gun," said Johnny, "what d'y' mean by tryin' to satisfy Black Bill with such chicken feed as that! Just look at him, gentlemen and ladies. He's the man who was going to protect you from road agents. No wonder he wasn't afraid, with nothing to lose. However, he's the man I was expecting to make a big haul from, and so long as he hasn't got anything worth having I'll let the whole gang off. "And now, Mr. Leadbeeter," he went on, "I want to say to you that this is a huge joke a practical joke. You mustn't expect too much from a man jirst out of college, for we fellows play lots of pranks on each other and are expected to take them good naturedly. I only wanted to prove to you that modesty is the best policy, and it doesn't do to brag too much about what toh'tp eointr to do beforehaud-
