ILLINliS CENTRAL TO HAVE BETTER SHOW .Positive gtatenaeat that Cbaage Will ' Ba Made laelde af Two Years Ceases frosa laloa Vm alio Heaaqaartera. "I anticipate," says a prominent Vnlon Paclflo officlat, "that within tha next two yaara arraoicenianta wilt be completed by 'which the Union Paclflo will discontinue Its overland connection with the North western line entirely end will Instead en ter Into similar relations with the Illinois Central railroad. "Though this movement has often been prognosticated. It will nevertheless come as a great surprise la railroad circles, as the years that have passed without any action to that end being taken have caused the railroad men to believe that the pro ject has been abandoned, "Two years ago, when the Illinois Cen tral first built Into Omaha from Fort Dodge, la-, the air was full of such talk and this continued for-several month to bo a practical toplo for prophecy. Since then the rumor tiled out and now the plan Is really to be consummated if ptans under way go through successfully. "This means a great deal of new railroad construction, ' mainly the double tracking of the entire Illinois Central line betwee'n Omaha and Chicago. This baa a ways been f-'OKpeoted, as when the new- line west' was built. two years ago roadbed and bridges were all made to allow another track at any time. Two years will be ample for the work, which. .If the arrangements are completed, will be begun inelde of three months. "" , . "There are two good reasons why this new combination by which the Union Pa clflo will use the Illinois Central Into Chi cago Instead of the Northwestern should bo established. In the Crst placa, both the Illinois Central and the Union Paclflo are strong Harrlman lines snd are therefore naturally ellled la Interests. "Tha Northwestern Is a good Vanderbllt road, and whlla the Vanderbllt Interests controlled in the Union Paclflo ownership there waa no trouble in maintaining the trafflo arrangement which has existed be tween the Union Paclflo and Chicago eV Northwestern roads up to this time. Nor would this connection be ruptured were it not that trafflo difficulties hsve arisen. In that lies the chief reason for the change. . There have been disagreements as to ths handling ot freight and other points of difference." MORE ROOM AT THE ELKS' FAIR Committee Pleas ta Arraage Crowde Certaia to Coma . .

No other remedy if today or ever has been openly and publicly endorsed by medical authorities. And Paine'g Celery Comnound is in no sense a pat ent medicine. From the very first its formula was, and it is today, freely fur nished to physicians in good standing anywhere. No man or woman whose nervous system is not in perfectly healthy con dition can properly perform the work that is his or iters to do. No person with shattered nerves can run the race of life in competition with the healthy man. While this Is true in every call ing, there is no better example than the case of the engineers who guide the passenger trains on the railroads. And it is true that no one class of work men furnishes a better example of what Paine's Celery Compound can accomplish than the railroad engineers of America.
