New York, March 1.What may
prove an epoch-making event in the rail
road world took place yesterday in the
"departure of the strange gas-electric
car on its trip to the Pacific coast. It
is the first time that a self-propelled com
mercial car has attempted a journey of
such length, and for that reason is
looked upon as an experiment of im
mense importance.
William B. Strang, owner of the car,
heads a party of officers of the New
York Central lines. The route to be
taken will be over the West Shore and
Central railroads to Buffalo, thence to
Chicago over the Lake Shore, to St.
Louis over the Chicago & Alton, the
Bock Island to Kansas City, and to El
Paso and San Francisco by the Bock
Island and Southern Pacific lines.
It will not be lone before a steam
locomotive in New York city will be
a strange a sight as a coach and four
with business intentions. Thus far
only one line uses electricity for its'
suburban traffic, jyet -plans now under
way on nearly alf**the other lines bring
close the day when smoke and smut
will be things of a dirty past. Elec
trification of steam railways marks the
next great step in the progress of trans
portation.

Speculation as to what cities will get
the increased shop facilities, required by
the Milwaukee toatl because or its' Pa
cific coast extension is settled in part.
West Milwaukee is to have the first
extension, costing about $250,000.. This
amount will be probably increased later
Work will begin soon on.the shops.
The Pacific extension1
will require
at least 10,000 freight ears,' 250 loco
motives and other rolling stock. Be
tween $4,000,000 and $6,000^000 will be
spent annually by the company in con
struction of rolling stock. If it is all
settled for Milwaukee, the force there
will have to be increased from 4,000
to 6,000 men at once. The eapacitx of
the wheel foundry will be enlarged
from 185 to 400 wheels daily, increas

This would be the natural crossing

DEER I N HEART OF CHICAGO.
Chicago, March 1.A 5-year-old buck
deer that escaped from the compound in
Lincoln park yesterday and fled down
town by way of Clark and Kinzie streets
and the State street bridge, caused a
panic that .extended over three, miles* of
the north side, bowled over and slightly
injured three men, caused several run
aways and was Anally caught by a cross
ing policeman, thrown, hobbled and
hauled back to the. park.
JShere are two classes of remedies those of known qnal-
ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting
gently, in harmony witfr nature, when nature needs assist
ance and another class, composed of preparations of
unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting- tempo-
rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing* the natural
functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of ="i!
the remedies of known quality and excellence ft the ever

Pig Syrup Go., which represents the active principles of'^
plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup.
in which the wholesome California^ blue figs are used to con- 'f
tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity'flavor. It is the remedy
of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system "Tl
gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti-
pation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi-
ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the
remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with
the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know
of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience
that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that
it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really
represents, a laxative remedy of tepown quality and
excellence,'* containing nothing of an objectionablPor injurious character*
there are two classes of purchasers those who are informed
as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence
of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go
elsewhere- when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known
article but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know,
and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannpjfc expect
its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy.
To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said
that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional
integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer
imitations of the

leyan university sustained a severe loas
by fire early today, when old Nortk
college, containing 150 rooms, was prac

little was saved. The loss is placed at
$80,000, covered by insurance.
The burned building. was erected in
1827 and formed the nucleus of the
present college group and was of great
historic interest at Wesleyan. About
all that was saved from he fire were
the valuable college records of Presi

their escape And many left the dormito
