glad that success has crowned his
efforts. He has installed a Diamond

NEWS OF THE RAILROADS
Patrons of the Missouri Pacific Demand
a Better Track.
RECENT ACCIDENTS ARGUSE FEELING.
The condition of the track and road
bed of the Missouri Pacific lines in
Nebraska is bad, says the Lincoln
Journal. Sentiment of patrons along
the line is said to favor some move be
in' made by the company to make
conditions better and to do as much
at once. It is asserted that wrecks
are of daily occurence, almost, and
that while few of these have been
disastrous to life or have caused great
damage to patrons, the delay in the
service is such that the people have
reason to protest.
Yesterday two slight wrecks were
reported. One was between Bethany
and Walton and the other near Mur-
. . -. , 3 1-
ray. Neither accident causeu mucu
damage, but because of the wreck
near Walton traffic on the line was
delayed for several hours. This wreck
was caused by the track giving away
under a freight train. One car left
the track and blocked the line. One
report from the Murray accident said
it was due to a broken car journal,
while another said the track gave
way.
In Nehawka and vicinity publicsen
timent against the company is strong.
The coroner's verdict relating to the
recent wreck at Nehawka censured
the company and laid the blame for
the accident on the condition of the
bridge and track. Two men were
killed in that wreck.
It is understood that representations
along this line have been made to of
ficials of the road in this state and
that an organized effort may follow to
get improvements said to have been
needed long ago.
It is said that the company has a
gang of about 100 Armenians at work
near Walton, surfacing and leveling
up the track. It is said that many of
the ties are rotten and should be replaced.

A Voluntary Death.
It took a long time before the Brit
ish government was able to suppress
the common habit of India, to allow
widows to die a voluntary death by
being cremated with the body of their
husband. Even the poor subjects of
this horrible superstition tried to up
hold it. We can hardly believe it,
although seeing persons around us
every day who voluntarily shorten
their lives by neglectinir the warning
of nature. A change in the appetite,
a slight feeling of discomfort are such
warnings, being the usual forerunners
of a disease. Triner's American Elixir
of Bitter Wine will speedily put the
whole body in perfect working condi
tion, will make the digestive organs
strong enough to accept and digest all
food. The digestive system in natural
activity means a life saved. Persons
