RAILROAD NEWS.
DEAD MEN'S CURVE TO GO.
UNDERSTOOD THAT PENNSYLVANIA WILL ELIMINATE IT.
This Dangerous Place Has Cost Many Lives and Many Thousands Of Dollars.
It is rumored about the Pennsylvania station that the Pennsylvania will in the near future begin operations, which will eliminate "Dead Men's
Curve at Hagerstown. The curve at that point has been responsible for the loss of several lives and has been a bother to the railroad In more ways than one, especially In the operation of trains. If the improvement Is carried out it will cost the road several thousand dollars. WILL BE NO EXTENSION. It Is understood from local railroad men In position to know of what they are speaking, that the C, I. & E., now owned by the Pennsylvania, will not be extended from Muncie, a terminal point, to Hagerstown, as was planned
'when the bigger corporation took over
"the road of many troubles." It was planned to run a branch from the "Glass City" to Hagerstown or New
Castle and by so doing shorten the Chicago branch of the road. Such an
extension would also give the Penn
sylvania better shipping facilities out of Muncie, one of the largest manu
facturing cities in the gas belt.
Since the Pennsylvania secured con
trol of the Harry Drew road, Iiow ever, the freight business has increas
ed wonderfully, the Pennsylvania be
ing able to handle freight to Converso and thence east, as fast as other roads
running eastward out of Muncie. The
passenger business of the road has in
creased since the road ha3 been under
the guiding hand of the Pennsylvania

FREIGHT INTERCHANGE.
The Indianapolis Star says of the lo
cal freight interchange proposition:
Citizens or lilchmond, Ind., are watching with Interest the develop
ment In the effort to bring about freight interchange between the Penn
sylvania and the Chicago, Cincinnati & Louisville road at that point. Hoth
sides have filed with the Indiana Rail
road commission brief-? and are looking within a few clays for the commission to make a ruling in the matter. In case the Pennsylvania Is not successful it will carry the matter into court, and, if so, the case will be an important one for the reason that It will be the first raised on this feature of the power of the Railroad Commission.
WILL USE THE PARK. The Panhandle company declares it has been cramped for room at Camden, O.. and asks that the park grounds which it needs for switching purposes may be vacated. Surveys have been made with a view to making the tract into yards. The freight house is to be enlarged and improved. The residents dislike to see the passing of the park but they have no way of preventing the company from carrying out Its purpose. ADJUSTMENT OF RATES. Traffic representatives of the trunk lines and members of the Central Freight association have resumed the conference that was abandoned last spring. Its purpose being to arrange details relating to the participation in a new adjustment of rates to the Pacific coast with a view of conforming to a ruling of the Interstate Commerce commission on the publication of tariffs.
AGENTS WILL MEET. The annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Association of Traveling Passen-
ger agents will be held next month at Jamestown and the outlook is for the largest attendance in the history of the organization as several questions of interest are to be brought up for
r discussion.
. FARES ARE INCREASING. Since the traveling public has become accustomed to the Indiana twocent rate law, conductors on the lo- , cal roads state that the number of fares paid on the trains is increasing. People have learned that they can have returned the excess fare paid on the trains, at their destination or at any ticket office along the line, in sixty days. Therefore the excess faro charge is not such a "bugbear" ' is the railroad officials thought it would be, although it is giving the Conductors considerable extra work to lo. Refund blanks are being cashed t local ticket offices in Increased i lumbers and are also considerable ; rouble to ticket agents.

CHANGE FOOD And Lose That Uneasy Feeling.
A man who has always been a "skinny chap." although hardly ever ill, tells of the way he put on flesh and reduced his irritability and nervous condition. By chance he had a taste of GrapeNuts food at the table of a friend and
enjoyed the flavour so much that he began to have it every meal. He says: "In a short time I found myself an
other person, the old feeling of dis
content and uneasiness left me entirely, it became a pleasure to go about my work, whereas, before, for years, I had always had the feeling of being a little weary, but now I seem to have a surplus of energy for everything; my weight has increased 11 pounds In four weeks, and am still gaining. "I have never been very sick and am satisfied if my present improvement in health continues, I shall not be. "The change that this food has made in my life has been remarkable and so satisfactory that I am glad of the opportunity to tell you." Read "The Road to Wellville, la pkgs. "There's a Reason."

A Tenderfoot's Wonderful Feat
Herding Sheep. In the west they tell this story about the east, perhaps by way of retaliation for some of the tall stories about the west that they tell down east. A young man, just graduated from an eastern Institution of learning, went to the west and applied at a large ranch for a job. "What can you do?" asked the owner. "Nothing much, but I'm willing to work and can learn," replied the eager applicant. "Know how to ride a horse?" "No, I never rode one In my life." "Rather a slim chance for you to be useful here, I'm afraid." "What have you to do for a man if he could ride?" "Herding sheep." "I think I could get along at that very well without a horse." "Young man, I'm afraid you don't know much about this business. I have a large ranch here and some thousands of sheep. A man without a horse would make a pretty poor show." "Well, I'll tell you; when I was at college I was the champion sprinter of the institution. I believe I could do you some good service. I have a long distance record too. I wish you'd give me a chance and let us see what I can do." With a good natured but pitying smile the ranchman said all right and bade his new man to get some supper, turn in and be ready to go to work early the next morning. When the employer rose next morning he saw the new employee coming In from the direction of the sheep quarters. Somewhat surprised at the young fellow's enterprise in getting up so early, he accosted him: "Well, you're up and ready to go to work, are you?" "Oh, my, yes! I've been at work for two or three hours." Then the ranchman noted that the tenderfoot was dressed in working clothes, a sweater, and already looked rather flushed. "What have you been doing?" he asked. "Driving those lambs into the corral." "What lambs? I have no lambs. This is not the lamb season." "Well, I chased eighty-five of them
in, and I tell you I had a time of it too." The ranchman went with the young tenderfoot to see what the story he told was about. And, sure enough, huddled up together, frightened and tired out, were
eighty-five wild jackrabbits.
"All right, young man; I think you'll
do," said the ranchman. Chicago Record-Herald.
Indianapolis, Sept. 17 Sid Conger
has announced that he will not enter
the gubernatorial race. His announce
ment is brief and to the point.
"I will not be a candidate next year"
he said.
For more than six months Mr. Con
ger has figured in the governorship speculation. He is a representative farmer, who has long been prominent
in farmers organizations, and those
who believe the time has come to se
lect a candidate from the rural dis
tricts had begun to take notice of his budding aspirations. During the last two weeks, while Governors were being made and unmade around the political headquarters in this city, Mr. Conger was often Importuned for a statement as to his position, but he steadily declined to be Interviewed. Yesterday he decided that the time had come to speak. He declined to make any further
statement or make known his preference for the nomination, but said he would try to demonstrate his choice for the place by his actions. His announcement will be good news to those who are boosting James E. Watson for Governor, for with Conger out of the running, Watson would be sure of a solid delegation from the Sixth Dis
trict.
There are several brands of bad baking powder on the market. Look out for them! Some kinds have Cream of Tartar ia thexn. Others have Tartaric Acid or Alum. All of these substances are corrosiic poisons! Of course these bad baking powders do not contain enough dangerous ingredients to kill anyone just enough to produce an irritating effect oa the stomach and bowels. Bad baking powder is one of the great causes of dyspepsia and nervous troubles. You can protect yourself from all danger and insure better baking results than you ever had before, by using the famous Egg Baking Powder. Egg Baking Powder is made from wheat phosphates and egg albumen.
The wheat phosphates which form tha acid ingredient Lave both food valuo and tonic properties. On the other hand the Creamof Tartar and Tartaric Acid of some high priced baking powder or the Alum of low-price brands has no food value at all. After heat and moisture have been added, as in baking, this acid forms strong metal salts which arc highly injurious. Don't allow a grocer to sell you a baking powder that breeds dyspepsia! If it is free from Cream of Tartar, Tartaric Acid or Alum, the label trill say so! Insist oa pure, wholesome. Egg Baking Powder it's safr. Not only healthful, but has wonderful leatenxn power. Insures best baking. All good grocers sell "Egg." Send us a postal for free copy of 7A Egg Cook Book.

A Bismarck Duel. A duel in which Bismarck was once engaged had a very amusing origin. It occurred when he was chief secretary of the Prussian legation at Frankfort. He went much into society and one Christmas attended a big ball. During the height of the festivities Bismarck's attention was directed to an exceedingly pompous individual who strutted about the room. This was a M. de Clancy, a noted French duelist. Later on this important Individual took part in the dance, but having omitted to leave his hat at the proper place had perforce to hold it out almost at arm's length while he dnnced

the expenditure of over ?15,mo,mo for
the construction of a tunnel, canal four and one-half miles' long, seventy feet wide and forty-three feet above the water level to the vaulted roof, to connect the port of Marseilles more directly with the Rhone river. The great width of this tunnel will permit the passing of two barges, it will be lighted by electricity, and possess a small railroad running along its side. This great engineering feat is to be finished in seven or eight years and will necessitate the extraction of 2,859,333 cubic yards of rock "and earth.

have been authenticated, but none be
fore has been found "in place." Most
of those in the United States, Guiana
and Brazil have come to light through
the "breaking down," or wasting away of the original rocks which allows the diamonds to washed into brooks and river gravels, as in South America. Many have been found in the glacial moraine of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin, whither prehistoric glaciers have swept them from some point in Canada. Search is now being made for the original resting place of these stones by several surveying par
