While the foolish man' believes
the advertisement of tho greedy
millionaire distiller of "A Whis
key Without a Headache," no one
has ever found or dared to claim
a "Whiskey Without a Heart
ache." Every drop of alcoholic
liquor contains a percentage of
the most virulent poison, known
to medical science. This causes tho
headaches for "moderate" users
the heart-aches, misery, insanity
and deaths resulting from co.i

ST. LOOTS, May 2S.-Thomas 11. West,
chairman of the board of director of the
SL Louts Truet company, and B. I.
Wlnchell. prealdent of the St. Loula ft
Ban Francisco Railroad company, were
appointed receiver for tho railroad In
tho federal district court here late this
afternoon.
The appointment of the receivers here
took place about an hour nfter the ap
pointment of ancllllary receivers for the
Chicago ft Eastern Illinois, a subsidiary
ot the St. Louis ft San Francisco, by the
United States district court In Chicago.
The application for receivers for the St.
Louts ft San Francisco was made to Cir
cuit Judge Walter H. Sanborn. A re
ceivership was urged as tho only solution
of the financial difficulties of tho road
by James Campbell of St. Louis, president
ot the North American company, said to
be a creditor of tho road to tho extent of
$100,000. Tho Immediate cause of tho re
ceivership was tho maturing on June 1
of short time notes Issued by the railroad
for $2,600,000 which bear 5 per cent In
terest. Yoakum In Cnnaultntton.
Chairman B. F. Yoakum ot the railroad
board of directors came to St. Louts last
week to consult with local Interests con
cerned In the welfare ot the road as to
the best course to pursue.
At first It was rumored that some
means would be found to tide the com
pany over Its pressing necessities, but
this hope was dissipated early today
when Judge Sanborn and attorneys and
directors for the rnllroad went Into se
cret conference.
At noon today It became known that
petitions were being prepared for the ap
pointment of a receiver, and rumors
stated that this proceeding would be op
posed.
These rumors were certified In part.
when the formal application was pre
sented to Judge Sanborn late this after
noon. Attorneys Frederick w. Lehmann
and Charles Nagel, representing" certain
creditors, said they preferred to have as
receivers, men who wore in no way con
nected with the railroad, thus opposing
the appointment of Mr. Wlnchell and Mr.
West, whose trust company has looked
after many of the financial affairs of
the road In the past.
The objections of Attorney Lehmann
and Nagel did not prevail with the court.
The application for receivers waa laid

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, May 28.-(Speclal Tel
egram.) Entries for lands In the North
Platte forest reservation, to be opened
for settlement about October 1, are to
be handled' by the land offices at North
Platte and Broken Bow, depending upon
which land office has Jurlidlotlon over
them. Several applications have been re
ceived by Representative Klnkald to have
the supposed drawings take place In
towns near the lands. Broken Bow de
sired the drawing, also Hyannls.
Representative Klnkald said today that
there would be no drawings, but that
the local land office would handle the
entries In the usual way.
"There are about 3t4,000 acres In the
district to be thrown open," said Mr.
Klnkald. "They are all under the one
section act. The lands lying In Mc
pherson county will be handled by tho
North Platte office and those in Grant
county by the Broken Bow land office.
I have so Informed the parties who have
written to me."
Benson WanU Mull Delivery.
The town of Benson wishes to be made
a substation of the Omaha postofflce. At
least several patrons of the office have
so Informed Representative Lobeck and
Senator Hitchcock. They have been try
ing to secure city delivery of mall for
some time without success and think
perhaps it may be gotten by having the
office made an Omaha substation.
Gmlinm Presents Request.
J. A. Graham of the American Land

Interview with Secretary of State Bryan
today. His company owns large prop?
ertles in Mexico, and Mr. Graham urged
that either one faction or the other be

there. No action was taken on Mr,
Graham's request.

i!. em some days later for. transportation
io Lincoln on the Northern Pacific rail

thence to Lincoln, making a total outlay
ot S323.35.
The original tickets cost tlM.50 and
therefore she claims reparation for abova
amount.

Defense in Wood
Trial Seeks to
Establish Alibi
BOSTON, Mass., May 28. The defense
In the dynamite trial succeeded today
In getting evldenco that on the night of
January 19, 1912, at the hours when the
government alleges President W. M.
Wood, of the American Woolen company,
and Frederick E. Atteaux, were further
ing a conspiracy to plant dynamite at
Lawrence, both were attending a confer
ence of mill agents, at which an appeal
to the strikers to return to work was
agreed upon.
Since the beginning of the trial, the
prosecution has sought to prove that
Wood, Atteaux and Dennis J. Collins, con
spired with John J. Breen and Ernest
W. Pitman, to prejudice publlo opinion
against the strike of textile operatives
at Lawrence by hiding dynamite on prem
ises occupied by tho strikers. The evi
dence regarding the conference was
brought out on the cross-examination ot
Walter M. Lamont, agent of the Wood
mill, one of the American Woolen com
pany's plants at Lawrence. On hts direct
examination the witness said he saw
Atteaux at Wood's home at Andover on
the night of January 19.
before the court by Henry 8, PTlest, rep
resenting the directors of the railroad
and the principal bondholders and act
ing In behalf ot tho North American
company. Tho North American company
Is understood to hold as collateral on
Its loan of $100,000, all tho bonds on the
railroad's federal land grant ot 1. 360.000
acres In Arizona and New Mexico and
$300,000 first mortgage bonds of the New
Orleans Texas ft Mexico Railroad com
pany, a subsidiary.
The financial difficulties of the railroad
are of long standing and are attributed
In part to the southwestern floods ot
1911 and 1912, to the Increased agrg of
railway employes and to the high price
of money. The ownership ot the Chicago
ft Kaatern Illinois, It Is stated, has
also proven a financial drain on the par
ent system.
The St Louis ft San Franolsco rail
road long was leased to tho Atohtson,
Topeka ft Santa Fo. In ISM the road
became Independent. Four years later It
absorbed the Kansas City, Fort Scott ft
Memphis, extending from Kansas City to
Birmingham. Ala., nnd In 1904 asqulred
the Chicago ft Eastern lltlnolB.
Ir. 1903 tho Frisco became merged Into
the Rock Island system. This merger con
tinued unUl 1909, but in that year UU
Frisco panted Into the hands ot a syndi
cate headed by B. F. Yoakum, the late
Hdward Hawley and a group ot St. Louis
capitalists. It has approximately 1.TO4

To the Man Who Can Show Us Where Any Vital
Improvement Can Be Made Upon the Cartercar
The Cartercar is the groatest motor car ever produced
by mortal man. It is the highest yet attained in mechani
cal construction and carries individual features which
cannot be found in ay other car.
The most modern ideas of the world's greatest ex
perts in motor car building have been incorporated in
Cartercar construction.
The method of power transmission is a vital point
where most car builders fall down. They continue to
use the old fashioned sliding gear transmission, which
burdens the owners of such cars with continued trouble
and expense. The sliding gear transmission is a waste
of power and shortens the life of every car wherein it is
used.
Disregard the "Words of Knockers
And Learn for Yourself
The Wonderful Features of the Cartercar
j
Let us show you how the Cartercar has advanced bp far ahead of all its competitors.
The Cartercar has the chain-in-oil drive friction transmission or the same prinoiple employed which transmits
the power of the railway locomotive.
The Friction Drive IS, WAS and ALWAYS WILL BE the best method of transmitting power. l
Here Is One Vital Point of
Superiority
COMPARE THESE
TRANSMISSIONS
Cartercar Friction Drive
The Cartercar Friction Transmission with chain-in-oil
drive, is not subject to the 'many griefs and ills of the
ordinary gear transmission. It eliminates clutch, uni
versal joints and bevel gear drive. There are just two
principal working units. The extreme simplicity car
res with it great economy. The Cartercar glides away
like an aeroplane, without a sound or jar.
Sliding Gear Transmission
The old fashioned sliding gear transmission is ex
travagant in construction, expensive in maintenance
and untrustworthy in performance. It limits its user
generally to three forward speeds, costs as much for
lubrication, with the necessary clutch and universal joints,
as the entire upkeep of the Cartercar Friction Drive, and
is much more noisy.
We ask you to investigate this wonderful motor car.
