THE NORFOLK NEWS : FRIDAY , A PHIL 20,11)06 ) GOOD STORY RECALLED ABOUT NORFOLK BALL PLAYER. WILKINS HAD ROASTED GALASKI On the First Day of the Two-Day Sc ries Between Crelghton and Norfolk , Galaskl Had Been the Victim of Criticism He Got "His" Next Day. In speaking of the recent ncqulnl- tlon of Jo Oiilnskl , formerly n Nor folk baseball pitcher , which was tin- nounccd in those columns some time ago , the Nebraska Liberal at Crotch ton recalls a good story about Jo and Glt-n WIlkliiR , in the following snappy style : Crelghton fans remember a hot shot oo gave Glen Wllklns during one of the Norfolk-Crclghton sorlew. The day before Galaskl pitched and ho was as wild as an antelope. Wllkins was on the bench and he kept up a sneering cat call that he had learned over nt DCB Molnes about "put nl'er over. " This day the third Inning had not passed till Wllkins was rapped for two stringing two base hits and a triple. The sneer had died out of Wllklna' lip and his eyes had the glassy stare of the pugilist who is momentarily ex pecting to receive n knock-out blow. Calling Galaskl he said , " .Too , you go in and finish the game , I am not feel ing well today. " .Too told Wllkins to go where ho was not supposed to find any good Sunday school children and then added , "You kept hollering yes terday for mo to put 'or over ; yon don't Kcem to have any trouble in put ting them over and they are puting them over too over the fence. " Students of the game thought that If Joe ever got that terrific drop under control that he would get Into fast company. Joe's father sent him to college to study to be a Catholic priest but Joe did not have the staying qualities for twelve > ears of mental application. No doubt when Stone , Huchniinn and Galaskl get together they will talk about old times in the High Grass league in Nebraska. By the way , Buchanan must have found something besides what he had when he was hero or he could not get to be gate-keeper for the big league. ROSEBUD GIRLS. They Report That They Have Pursued Matrimonial Proposals. Naper Enterprise : Three of the famous homesteader girls were in town Wednesday , on their way to the prairie home of one of the "girls. " They had all been the recipients of numerous letters proposing marriage , and have untold amounts of fun com paring letters. One of the ladies had received a letter from a gentleman in California. He was nice in every way , the letter said In substance , with a good home , only and here the lady's volnce took n despairing strain as she told of It he did not want anyone over 27 years old ! The ladies traced some of their letters to the source , in one instance the writer proving to be a government official who thought ho would have a little fun at the expense f * "V of the girls. This man represented himself as the owner of a claim on which he was building a $2,000 house , and his wife should live at her ease , Iff etc. He really only had his salary as an official , and only the lady's tender heartedness saved him his job. One of the ladles Is a resident of Lincoln , and the other two live In Omaha , and as The Enterprise understands , all are school teachers. They are bril liant talkers , enough an honest regard for the truth compels us to say that they would stand very little chance in a beauty show. Consumption is a Germ Disease. How Can It Start With a Cold ? This Is a reasonable question and one that must arise to the mnld of al most everyone when the claim Is made that consumption starts with a cold. The cold simply prepares the system for the reception and development of germs of that disease , that would not otherwise have found lodgement It Is the same with diphtheria , scarlet fever and measles. They are most likely to bo contracted when the child has a cold. That Is why a cold should never bo neglected. The longer It hangs on the greater the danger. As a quick cure for colds Chamberlain's Cough Remedy can always be relied upon. It's remarkable cures have won for it a world wide reputation and an Immense sale. It Is pleasant and safe to take.

President Stlllwcll Writes to Stock holders , Noting Progress. A. E. Stlllwoll , president of the Union and International Construction companies , which are building the Kan sas City , Mexico Orient railroad , has addressed the following letter to stock holders , giving progress In the work : "We are pleased to report that the line Is now In operation north from Sweotwater to Knox City , eighty two miles , and that regular train service was Inaiiguiated on April I ; also , that the track Is finished for seventy-two kilometers west of Mlnaca , In the mountain section , and wo expect to have one hundred Kilometers finished In a short time. Uegular trains are now being operated to kilometer 52. When the one hundred kilometers are finished , over one-half of our Hue In Mexico will bo in operation. "Tho last pier in the Canadian river bridge Is finished and the steel work Is now being put in place. Track work Is completed almost to the south bank of the river , and In six weeks wo hope to have the bridge finished and two hundred miles of this section In op eration. " GIRLS LOSE JOBS. A New System of Car Accounting Is Adopted on Northwestern. Twenty-seven girls have been dis charged from the car service depart ment of the general offices of the Northwestern road at Chicago , due to the Invention of a method of car ac counting by 10. E. Betts , car service agent , by which the services of type writers are no longer needed. The new system works as follows : Report blanks are arranged so that each car number is entered in a space by Itself , a perforation for tiling is made on the left side of each space so that when these reports are received In the office they are placed in order and so cut with a printer's paporcutler that each number appears on a slip by Itself ; these slips arc then sorted and distributed to the clerks , who ou ter ( hem In the proper books. The old method required the ser vices of young women to operate n score or more of typewriters to tran scribe the conductors' reports on per forated slips of paper , but It Is said the young women's errors made heavy annual losses for the company. MEXICO RATE SHORTENED. Yoakum Syndicate Plans Great Things for Southwest. Two railroad transactions just com pleted have disclosed the fact that the 13. F. Yoaknm syndicate is planning a great through short line between the great lakes and the City of Mexico , and a new system of roads that will connect with the gulf and also place territory In touch with the orient through the north Pacific ports , and at the same time draw the products of the west , northwest and southwest through the gulf ports. Mr. Yoakum's plan has to do with the development of the great south west and is the most compresenslve scheme of railway construction In years. Although not connected directly - ly with the Rock Island and the Frisco systems , the two play an Important part , as all of the lines now construct ed and In contemplation will connect with both systems. The project , which was the dream of Mr. Yoakum In his early Texas days , Is being carried rapidly to fruition. It has cost thus far fully $20,000,000 , and In Its fulfilment will cost between $30- 000,000 and $50,000,000 additional. Of such vast Import Is the matter to the future of the entire west that its probable - able effect may well bo compared to that of the Gould project to secure n line from the Atlantic to the Pacific coasc. The new Chicago-City of Mexico line will bo at least 000 miles , possibly 800 miles , shorter than the shortest exist ing route. In fact , there will be two routes between the great lakes and the City of Mexico , one by way of St. Louis and New Orleans , Galveston and Brownsville , and the other by way of Kansas City , Fort Worth , Brownsville and the National of Mexico. Block Signals Ordered. Superintendent W. II. Whalen of the Northwestern road received word from Chicago that the company had au thorized Improvements for the Iowa division this year to cost $320,000. Orders have been placed for the in stallation of block signals from Clin ton to Otis , and Logan to Council Bluffs , a total distance of 115 miles. "CURLY" WILBERGER DEAD.

If we tell you of a country where you ore sure of success , will you believe us ? It is only necessary for you to farm the land and the best results will follow a State which the government reports will show leads in the production of wheat. It also ranks among the first in the raising of corn , alfalfa , timothy and other products , together with stock raising. We speak of KANSAS The great State of the West , where lands can be purchased from $5 to $30 per acre which equals the returns of the $50 to $150 per acre lands of other States. EASTERN COLORADO is identical in most respects and the same opportunities are offered there. Buy quick while the lands arc cheap and secure the benefit of an excellent invest ment. THE MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILWAY touches the heart of this rich agricultural region and extremely low rates are offered , allowing stop-over at pleasure in certain territory for inspec tion of lands , etc. Write us and we will send you free descriptive literature and full information.
