Great Railway System.

Within Sixty Days the Great Rock Inland Will be Rnnnlng Trains Into South Hutchinson.

And She Will Have Hade Another Step Towards Becoming the Railroad Center of the Great

Southwest.

Hutchinson Dally News, May llth. In an interview with a news represen tative at Topeka, yesterday, President Lowe, of the Rock Island railroad, stated that the track laying had just been com pleted, and trains commenced running to Herrington, about sixty miles from this city. He also stated that the work would be pushed forward as rapidly as possible, and it was the intention to reach Hutchinson within sixty days and have regular trains running. Hurrah for the Rock Island.

MYSTERIOUS MOVEMENTS, ______ si A Rock Island Survey Corps Engaged Jn

Series of Mystic Perambulations at this CHy.

vi

Hutchinson Dally News, May 6th. A corps of surveyors could be seen yesterday, just across the river from this city, and in close proximity to South Hutchinson, industriously running levels, setting stakes, etc. A news reporter, scenting an item, approached the workers and asked the cause and probable effect of their labors. He was kindly Informed by Mr. John A. Yates, the engineer in charge, that It was the Rock Island survey corps, which for some time has been located at this city, and that they had been ordered to work for the company, but here the information ended, the engineer firmly declining to give any further pointers. The effect of their work however, was visible in a row of stakes extending directly southward from the south end of the bridge, in the form of a "Y" or for side tracks. From the location of other stakes near the bridge it would seem to Indicate the erection of several large buildings. The whole matter savors very strongly of yards, division'round house, or large railroad buildings, and the survey of over a mile of side track in one stretch wsuld possibly indicate all. When it is known that a seventy-five acre tract of land where these surveys were made was recently bought by an entire stranger who wanted this particular piece and no other, and also that parties who have friends in a position to know the intentions of the company are investing largely in that vicinity, it seems to point to something of anusual significance for South Hutcninson. We understand that the corps is instructed to continue with the work to-day. Everybody is on the tip-toe of excitement in South Hutchinson, and there are great expectations in both that and this city. _____________

DEFINITELY LOCATED.

The 8outh Hutchinson Educational Instltuto Located.

Hutchinson Daily News, May 6th. The trustees of the South Hutchinson Educational Institute met at the office of the InterState Investment Company yesterday to take final action on the location of this college. All the members were present, and the Institution was definitely located on a twenty-five acre tract donated for the purpose near the center of the Smith Wilson farm, southwest of the city limits. The site chosen is a most beautiful one, being high and commanding a view of the city and surrounding country. It is the best location that could be secured, and the best that could possibly be desired for a site for an institution of this kind. Nearly one hundred and forty thousand dollars has been subscribed, of the one hundred snd fifty thousand proposed to be donated, and as soon as the balance is raised, work on the ground and buildings will be commenced. There is no question bnt that the amount will be speedily raised, and work will then be commenced on the institution, which will make this city among the leading educational centers of the west

HERZ' BULLETIN.

It is the object of every establishment, previous to a'removal Irom one store to another to reduce their stock to the lowest minumim basis.

With this same object in view we have concluSed to take steps to reduce our stock as early in the season as practicable, being well aware of the fact, that the time to sell goods and reduce stock is right in season while there is a for ffoods and not after the demand is over,

We will therefore make speciel reduction sales in our different departments from day to day and quote such prices as will certainly accomplish ^our object.

At tlie same time we shall keep our slock continually replenished with such novelties as the^, market demands and keep the standard goods in all departments well supplied at all times. ,!k\

V" -rttvsr

Every establishment has more or less goods, whicn are not as desirable as others, and while it takes a deep cut in prices of such goods tow* move them, we are determined to clean our stock of all such merchandise at any sacrifice.

We shall mention in the daily papers asIve prcPj ceed to offer drives from time to time, and shall be pleased to have the public partake of the excellent opportunity offered to them to secure plenty of actual bargains.,

The fact is well known by this time that WE 3V. live up to our promises and advertisements and the public have no fear or being disappointed

ti ky us.
