The April earnings of Wisconsin Cen tral continue to show an increase In gross accompanied by a comparatively small in crease in expenses, the result is that the surplus shows an increase of 67 per cent for the month. For the ten months - the surplus shows an increase of 71 per cent, which is accomplished thru an increase of only about 11 per cent in gross. These figures reflect at least a partial cessation of the company's policy of. put ting all. possible earnings into the prop erty. It is understood that the company has no Intention of carrying on any im provements that will have to be charged to capital account, but the checking of the expenditure out of earnings Indicates that the improvement period is for the time at least completed on the Wisconsin Central. In the years that the management has been spending such a large portion of Its earnings on the property a great deal of work has been Accomplished which must finally result in benefit to the stockhold ers and which has prepared the road either to handle an increasing business In times of prosperity or to meet a fall ing off in the volume of business with a fair chanie of survival. Freight facil ities at Minneapolis have been almost quadrupled in the past three years. A n entire new division has been created with headquarters at Manitowoc on I-ake Mich Igam This new division, with the line between the small lakes of Wisconsin and* the twin cities constitutes a line that had been useful to the system already in catering to thp flour traffic across the lakes, .and in attracting more than a pro portionate share of the entire flour ton nage of the twin'cities. In addition, the entire system from the twjn cities to Lake Michigan and from Chicago to Lake Superior has been put in as good physical condition as the exigencies of its traffic demand. It is not claimed that the road compares with the great trunk lines either in physical condition or equipment. The system does not need it. The traffic returns for April reflect con- ATARRH CURED BY DRY AIR. i:, Hyomel Medicates the Air You Breathe, ? Kills the Germs and Cures the DIs* ease.

In April the flour trade of the twin cities, which is the mainstay of Wiscon sin Central business, was paralyzed by the closing down of the Minneapolis mills owing to rate conditions. Wisconsin Central suffered less in actual amounts of flour moved in that month than any other road,. but. even . this loss Was a very serious item when it is considered how important flour tonnage is to the road.

Minnesota editors reached home-to-day from their annual wander-week. The 150 who went, on the Washington excursion unanimously voted it "the best yet." They never spent four.days with greater pleas ure and profit than those In and about Washington. From Saturday evening, May 23, to Sunday, May 31, when the special reached St. Paul, the trip was made in comfort *ahd without unpleasant features. The oil wells of Ohio, the coke ovens of Pennsylvania, the steel mills of Pitts burg by night, the green-clad Alleghenies and the rushing Potomao and picturesque Harper's Ferry, made the Baltimore & Ohio trip from Chicago to Washington one of lively interest all the way. The train suffered the delay incident to all "specials," but no one minded them, and the commodious club car was always a safe refuge for the hungry. The Great Western handled the train with dispatch, and the wants of the party were well looked after by Mr. Haase, the northwest ern representative of the Baltimore & Ohio. Washington was seen under most favor able conditions. There was no insuffer able summer heat, and the editors never relaxed their industry in sight-seeing. They made just one excursion in a body, the steamer trip by the River Queen to Mount Vernon, Marshall Hall and Alexan dria. On account of a rainstorm Arling ton had to be cut out, but most of the par ty went by street car to visit the great cemetery and its beautiful grounds, in - cluding the recently finished monument for Cushman K. Davis. Mount Vernon and Alexandria brought the father of his country vividly before every one. Marshall Hall, across the, Po tomac from Mount Vernon, will be remem bered for its famous planked shad, which the editors saw baked before an open 'fire, and then discussed at the table. The "see ing Washington" trip was made In special street cars, with a jguide and a mega phone, and many things were seen in this way that could be seen in no other in such a short time. The rest of the time the editors traveled about singly and in groups. They went up the Accordion-pleated Skirts, made to your hours, of silk Sicilian or Danish cloth, any color you want at $11.50, $7.50 and.

Thursday evening the Washington col ony entertained at a reception, which was an occasion for pleasant reunion and some good speeches. W. W. Jermane of The Journal, Fred A. Johnson of the Dis patch and Joseph Carmody or the Trib une mingled extensively with ihe editors. The hit of the evening was made by C. F. McDonald of the St. Cloud-Times, and his speech is very likely to make him the next president of the association. Cap tain Castle and wife visited with a num ber of their editorial friends. Congress men Tawney, Bede and Buckman were in town, and C. F . Staples of the railroad commission joint the party^on the Mount Vernon trip. r The return was made pleasantly, and time was beguiled in all sorts of hilarious ways.

Mr. Randall is an ex-editor, but still retains his membership in the Minnesota association and his interest in the affairs of the men of the shears and paste pot. While the trip was purely one for rest and pleasure on the secretary's part, he took along a pocketful or the new state fair whistles and soon had everybody blowing for the 'fair. In fact the state fair whistles were about the only thlntj that happened on the trip.
