Denvkii, Feb. 10. The special train
from Chicago over theChlcago.Burllng
ton & Quincy and Burlington & Mis
sourl River railroads, chattered by
Iionry J. Mayham, a Denver mining
investment broker, reached this city
at 3:53 a. in., tosday, having run 1,020
miles in eighteen hours find fifty-three f
minutes. This journey goes into hisi
tnry as the greatest railway feat ever
accomplished. The best previous rail
load long distance record was nineteen
hours and fifty-seven minutes for 1)04
miles over tho New York Central and
Lake Shore from New York to Chicago.
Mr. Mayham, who loft New York
Sunday on tho Pennsylvania Limited,
chartered a special train in Chicago in
order to reach tho bedside of hiu dying
son, William B. Mayham, as quickly
as possible Tho Burlington officials
guaranteed to take him to Denver In
twenty-four hours. They made good
their guarauteo und had five hours
and seven minutes to spare.
From tho moment tho train left
Chicago until it rolled itito the Denver
depot, no hitch of any kind occurred.
It flew acress Illinois, luwa.Nobrusi
kn and Colorado like a meteor, fre
quently attaining a speed of ubwauis
of 70 miles an hour and uveraglug
over 00 miles an hour for stretches of
a hundred miles ut a time.
But in spite of the Burlington's
splendid record, Mr. Mayham arrived
in Denver too late to see his sou alive
The young man died shortly after
midnight,
Speaking of tills record breaking
run, Ueueial Manager Biown, of the
O , B.&Q, It. it., said to-dav: "It is
uotfjexactly correct lo suppose that the
Burlington company m.iy not achieve
still better results under more fuvor
aple clrcuiustauces. The fuots uro
that the company had ouly thirty miu
utes',, notice from Mr Mayham and
the train started out of Chicago In a
blinding snow storm." i
THAT WONDERFUL CHURN.
I want to add my testimony to tho list
of those that have used the Lightning
churn. It dues all that is claimed for
it; you can churn easily in one minute
and get a" large percentage more butter
than wltb the common ehdrns I
never towk the agency for anything
before; but, so many of my nelgnbors
wanted churns Xhut I oidercd 30 and
they are all gone. I think in a year
every farmer will have a Lightning
Churn-In fact they cant afford lo do
without ono as they make so much
more butter and a good little bit of
money Jean be made in every towns
chip tolling thfse chums. By writing
to J. 1 Casey & Co., St. Louis, Mo.,
you can get circulars and full pai!lc
ulrtrsa about the churn. A Reader.

1 have Doen reading in your paper
about several men and women that
have born very successful selling Hat
Irons, aud I concluded I would see
what a girl could do. 1 have worked
12 days and have sold 151 irons and
have 213 dollars left after paying all
expenses. Everybody is delighted
with the iron und I sell one almost
every place I show it, as people think
they can't afford to be without one as
they save so much fuel aud time and
don't burn the clothes. I know I can
clear five thousand dollars in a year .

A DANDY WIND MILL, MAKE IT

I have a neighbor that made one of
the People's wiadrnilla, and I have
been watching it closely; it is tho best

Francis Casey, St. Louis, Mo.
and any active man can undoubtedly
mako money anywhere pulling these

Mr A L Armotrong, an old druggist
and a prominent citizen of it "titer
prising town, says: "I sell forty oilier
ent kinds of cough medicine, but have
never in my experience sold so much
of any one article as I have of Mallard'
Horehuund Syrup.All who use it say It
is the most perfect remedy for Cough,
Cold, Consumption, und all diseases ol
the Throat and Lungs they have ever
i lied." It is a specific for Croup and
Whooping Cough. It wil' relievo a

Mr Ward L. Smith, of Fredrlcksen,
mo, was irouuieu wun enronic diar
rhoea for over thirty years. Ho had be
come fully satisfied that it was only a
question of a short time until he would
have to give it up. He had been treat
ed by some of the best physicians in
Kurope and America but got no per,
maueiit relief. One day he picked up
a newspaper and chanced to read an
advertisement of Champerlaln's Colic,
Cholera and Diarroohn Remedy. Ho
not a bottle of It, the first dose helped
him and its continued use cured him.

ELECTRIQ HITTERS.
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but peihaps more gen
erally needed when the languid, ex
hausted feelin prevails, when the
liver ie torpid and sluggish and the
need of a tonic and alterative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long "and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No rredicine will act
more surely in counteracting aud free
ing the system from the malarial poi
son. Headache, indigestion, constipa
tion, dizziness yiehVto Electric Bitters.

STANDS AT THE HEAD.
Aug. J. Bogel, the leading druggist
of Shreveport, La., says: "Dr. King's
New Discovery is the" only thing that
cures my cough, aud it is the best sells
er I have ' J . F. Campbell, merchant
of Safford, Ariz., writes: "Dr. King's
New Discovery Is all that is claimed
for it; it ne'er fails, and is a sine cure
for consumption, coughs and colds. I
cannot say enough for its merits " Dr.
King's New Discovery for connumpi
tion, coughs aud colds is not an exper
iment. It has been tried for a quarter
of a century and today stands at the
head. It never disappoints. Free
trial bottle at Taylor's drug store.
MARRY THIS GIRL QUICK.
I saw in your paper that a 13-year-old
boy made $1.25 the tirst hour he
worked selling the Perfection Metal
Tip lampwlck. I ordered a sample and
went to work and the first week I

Uetal Tip lampwlck makes such a
beautiful white light and does away
with smoky chimneys and bad odor
and saves oil, it is easy to sell . If you
wish to try it send 13 two'ctnt stamps

Bow the Dipper 8avod the farm.
Father whs sick and tho mortgage
on the farm was coming due. 1 flaw in
Christian Advocate where Mitw A M.
Fritz of Station A, St. Louis, Mo.,
would send a sample combination dip
per for 18 two cent stamps, and I or
dered one. I saw the dipper could
be used as a fruit jar tiller; a plain
dipppr; a line strainer; a funnol; a
strainer funnel ; a sick room warming
pun and a pint measure. These
eight different uses makes the dipper
such a necessary article that I went to
work witli it and it sells at very near
every houpe. And in four months I
paid oft the mortgage. I think I can
clear ns much as 8&00 a month. If
you need work you can do well by giv
ing this a trial. Miss A M Fritz, Sta

a sample for 18 two cent stamps
