Line From Malvern, Ark., Had Been Considered Part of the Iron Mountain System. President Francis I. Gowen of the Choc taw. Oklahoma and Gulf Railway Company has completed a deal with President Dick son of the Hot Springs Railroad, by which the latter road becomes a part of the Choc taw system. President Dickson has called a special meeting of the stockholders to be held at- Hot Springs, Ark., on May 11, when he will be succeeded as president of the road by Mr. Gowen, and the Board of Directors will be reorganized on a Choctaw basis. The consideration paid by the Choctaw Is said to have been 1300,000. The road Is only twenty-two miles long and runs from Mal vern, Ark., to Hot Springs. It has direct' connection with the Iron Mountain Route and has always been considered as an Integral part of that system. President George J. Gould of the Missouri PacMc Iron Mountain system had an option on the road for a long time, but threw It over his shoulder to purchase the Little Rock' and Hot Springs Western, which was built and owned by Colonel S. W. Fordyce, former vice president and general manager of the Cotton Belt. After Mr.. Gould allowed his option to lapse. Joseph Dickson and several of his friends bought the Hot Springs road from Jay Morton of Chicago. Morton bought the line from "Diamond Jo" Reynolds, who built it. For a long time the Hot, Springs railroad enjoyed a monopoly, charging as high as 10 cents a mile, reducing it gradually to $1.20 for the twenty-two miles. "Diamond Jo" Reynolds said It paid for Itself twice over before he Bold It. When the Gould system bought the Little Rock and Hot Springs Western from Colonel Fordyce a new Inlet was afforded the Iron Mountain to the Springs via Ben ton, Ark. Nearly all southbound business to Hot Springs was routed via Benton, and, until their option expired. It looked as though the Goulds were about to play a game of "freeze out" on the Malvern line. It Is said to be the Intention of the Choc taw officials to either force the Gould in terests to grant them trackage lights over the Little Rock and Hot Springs Western and Iron Mountain, or build an independ ent line from Little Rock to Hot Springs and also extend the Malvern Route across country to Pine Bluff.

Two leaders in the team shoot which will open the twenty-fourth an nual Missouri State shoot at Dupont Park this mgrning. Fifteen trap hots who came many miles to practice in tho Mis-ouri Shoot, which be gins at Dupont Shooting Park this morn ing, made their appearance at the grounds jesterday and shot in several live-bird events. Tho preparations for tho big tournament are all complete, and when lleferce John Hermann calls the Ilrst man to the score this morning for the team contest, it Is expected thjt the most successful trap shooting tourney ever held west of the Mis sissippi will have been Inaugurated. En thusiasm Is running hish among all those who have arrived, and word has been re ceived from tho other entries throughout the State that they will orrlvo in time for tho team contest Six cracks caino In from Kansas City yes terday und took part in a ten-bird sweep in which live men divided the money. The men from the west end of the State were Newt Beach, W. H. Hill. T. J. Sims, A. H. cllasner. F. M. Berkey and Guy Little. The latter was formerly a Denver man, and there will be a deal of rivalry during the shoot bet n en Little and the Colorado quar tet. T. E. Hubby of Waco, Tex., arrived in time to kill nine birds in tho event of tho afternoon yesterday. From Carthage, Mo., came Joe Leggett, George Leggett, Henry Johns. H. E. Lister and Charles Drake. They will havo a fast team In the big shoot this morning. D. N. Morrill of Omaha arrived In plenty of time to uphold the reputation of Ne braska as a mccca of crack trap shots. W. Garth and J. C. Brovles come all the way from Columbus, Miss., to win The Republic Cup. Broyles competed in the ten bird event yesterday, but missed two birds. In the shoot jesterday the visitors had slightly the best of the argument with the locals. Of the Ave who made clean scores, three were out of town shots. They were Daniels and Arnold of Denver and Beach of Kansas City. Joe Walker again grassed all of his birds, as did Charley Spencer. Arnold, the Denver crack, has not missed a bird In tw o days, and the same good rec ord Is credited to Spencer and Walker. Cap tain Sedam missed one left driver jester day, which Just skimmed the wire. It was his first miss during two days at the traps A "dollar mlss-and-out" match was shot in which nearly a score of cracks entered. Three of them missed their first bird light at the start and re-entered. The affair soon narrowed down to three of the Kansas City cracks and they made many side bets on the result and even went back to thirty-three yards, but on the eleventh round It was found that all the stake money had been used up in birds and the shoot was left standing as such. Guy Little, Berkey and Beach shut out all the others and went to the eleventh round. f was a Jolly trio, with the rotund and cheery Mr. Glasner on the bench near the score trying to rattle each one as he went to the mark.' They are not the kind who can be rattled, though, and they will form a mighty dangerous quartet In the team shoot this morning. Little concentrates himself on his work when at the traps, but Berkey must have josn- going on witn some one an me time, or he could not grass them with such regularity. He shoots like all the cracks that have been turned out of the Kaw City, and few birds get ten feet from the trap before he has unloaded both bar rels on them. Beach Is more deliberate In his w ork and none the less accurate. Glas ner shot a few birds for practice, but did not have his own gun or shells, and was not trvlng very hard. He Is good enough to be on any team this morning, however. Frank White fell' off In form yesterday after his clever work Sunday, and missed three of his ten. He says he will shoot In every event this week, targets as well as live birds, and his constant Improvement should land him well up In the prize list Ainsley Fox, the Baltimore crack, who Is shooting under the name of Winchester, did most of his work on clay targets yesterday, but entered the ten-bird event nnri mlMi1 one bird. His firing pin was out of order and he made a couple of cracking good shots after having missed fire on each oc casion. Hubby, the "Waco Wonder" was hardly up to a good performance after his long trip, but he only failed on one speedy wobbler, which could never be killed except on a lucky shot The birds used yesterday were not the fastest that Dave Elliott has In his loft by any means, as the screamers have been al lowed free run of the large loft, that thev may insure good performances In the Im portant events. Charles Fresch caught a heavy-weight scrapper In the bunch yester day, which took a whole load of shot to the boundary fence, and then worried Fresch until he caught It In the middle of the grounds, after using a combination of lofty tumbling and some Sherlock Holmes tac tics. Tramp Irwin, who was missed at the park yesterday, by the way, said on Sunday that the performance In tho Dupont Trophy shoot at Springfield, 111 , last week, was not such a remarkable one when it Is known how the birds were released. He says thatt the traps used were of a very slow-springing variety, and most of the birds would sit in them long enough to let the shooter get a good bead on them. They might as well have been released from one trap, for the man at the score could always shoot Just as accurately as If he had been told beforehand what trap would be sprung. The birds were slow and though a strong wind wai blowing, the pigeons seldom got far enough to secure the benefits of its accelerating element. That three men should kill 100 straight In one match Is to be wondered at under most any circumstances, but what Irwin says takes a deal of merit out of the performance. The first event, the team shoot, will be called at 3:30 this morning. In the after noon, or at the conclusion of the team shoot, the Individual championship of the State will be. decided. And when -that has been finished the interstate champion will win his title for 1901. As the last event Is an open one. It should furnish as good shooting as will be seen during the tournament The score in yesterdays impromptu event follows: Meier Daniels 10 Little 7 Beach 10 Broyles J White 7 Arnold 12 Johns 1 Lister Hubby 9 Fox J Sedam 9 Leggett 7 Fresch I Walker -10 Taylor t spencer " SOME INTERESTING RACING. Ampere Will Be Asked to Go a stoat Iantortaat .Stake Wetcats. The most Interesting race of Um sbmUbjc will come up for discussion to-day, when Wall, Ampere, Mint Sauce, Wax Taper, Ida Ledford and Ethel Wheat tie up. The race will give people an idea of what chance Ampere has over a route. That Is Its prin cipal feature. Then, as Ampere, Mint Sauce and others aro In the Club Members' Handi cap, which will be run on June 1. the race will help bettors to get a line on them. Am pere, Duelist, Maud Gonne, Miss Mae Day and SUverdalc are In the Memorial Handi cap, which will be run on May 30. To-day's race should do a lot toward furnishing a lino on a lot of good horses. Schwarzwald (Imp. Sain Ellen), another of the great Woodlands colts, will make his debut to-day. Of course, he will be 1 to 2 in the betting, and likely followers of form will eniov the slcht of seelnir him trimmed. It Is always a pleasure to see a horse made l to z on a maiden start beaten.

Kel ley, a young man from Providence, was restored to his right mind in this city this evening. The case Is considered one of the most temarkable ever brought to the notice of Buffalo specialists.

He was then brought out of the trance and In stantly realized that bis mind had been cleared up. He told the physicians he lived in Providence, was an ItCsuranceT agent, 2S years old, and said he had come to this city to see the exposition. The mental transformation was remarkable, according to the physicians. Kelley was furnished transportation and left for his horns in Providence to-night. STEAMER DUBUQUE GOES TO THE BOTTOM.

By far the most destructive of these is Cancer, which finds the greatest number of its victims among the children and grand-children of those whose blood was tainted with this dreadful malady. You may carry this poison in the blood for years, hut. as the vital powers begin to wane a slight bruise or cut, wart or mole, sore orj pimple maydevelop into Cancer. From middle life to old age i3 the time when.) the slumbering poison is most apt to break out, a sore or ulcer often degenerating into Cancer, and Tumors become more progressive and ulcerate through thesiin,. the sharp, shooting pains causing the most intense suffering. The Cancer patient naturally grow s despondent as one after another the usual; remedies fail, and the sore shows no sign of healing. The impurities that have been accumulating in the system, perhaps for generations, cannot be eliminated non the poucned bloodmade pure by salves, wtihes and plasters. The proper treatment; is to purify and build up the blood, remove the cause, when the sore or nicer heals. 17, .t v. a 1 ,. o ,. ..... S.S.S goesdirecllyi tiny ulcer came, just under the left rye.

BOTH SESSIONS INACTIVE AND DEALINGS LIGHT. There Were No Features 'of Inter est and No Important Changes. MORSrSG SESSION. The early session of the Stock Exchange yesterday was slow and very dull and pro ductive of few changes in quotations. Tho demand was limited to very few securities, but neither buyers or sellers exerted them selves to executing orders, and the day's transactions were exceedingly small. In United Railways a few scattered sales were made, the total only amounting to 45 shares, preferred, at 178J&; while the close was 78 bid and 178.50 asked. Transit did not sell, but was bid $24 and 124.25 asked. Both these stocks were stronger than they closed Saturday. The 4s were unchanged and steady at SS9.75 bid and 130 asked. There were few bank stocks quoted, so small were orders and interest taken. Con tinental was the favorite and showed in creased strength, bids being a point higher at 1219 and none offered under 1225. Third National was quoted at S2mo bid and 1214.50 asked. State National at 1176.50 bid and 1176.50 asked, and Bank of Commerce at 1289 bid, Lafayette, which was 1550 bid and 650 asked, Saturday, was offered in a small way, shares, at 1575. Fourth National had a seller at 1253 and South Side at $135, while Southern Commercial was bid $110. Interest in the market for trust was at a very low ebb, to judge from the bids and of fers made, only three stocks being quoted, while sales were but 16 shares, all Mer cantile 10 shares bringing $316 and S shares $317. The closing; was $316 bid and $317 asked. Mississippi Valley was $357.50 bid and Lincoln, which was expecting 3 per cent dividend, was $228.60 bid and 232 asked. Granite- Bl-Metalllc Mining was dull at $2.05 bid and $2J0 asked, but there was a demand for Laclede Gas common and a sale of 50 shares was made at $S5 at which there was mors offered and $84.75 bid. The brokers voted yesterday to adjourn the exchange Decoration Day, which falls on Thursday next. There will be no ses sion either morning or afternoon. AFTERXOOlf SESSION. There was not a redeeming feature to the afternoon session. Bids were few and far between and less than the usual number of quotations were made. The most strength was in bank stocks and In particular Con tinental National, which was 2 points high er than It closed last Saturday at 1220 bid and $225 asked. Third National was un changed at $21160 bid and $214.50 asked and $247 bid and $250 asked for American. This Is the first quotation made on this stock for several days. One sale was made during the session and that was In 43 shares of Btate National, which brought $176, ex. divi dend. There were only two trust stocks quoted, one being Lincoln, which had tsa bid and was held at $232, and the other Title and Guaranty, which was bid $152 and not offered. United Railways were practically dead. There were a few bids of $24 for Transit or common stock, which was held at $24 50, and the bonds were wanted In a quiet way at $89.75, but held for 130. The transfer books of the Continental Na tional Bank will close the 23th of the pres ent month and a dividend will be declared and paid the same day. Lincoln Trust and State National Bank M.

After each bottle of Schlitz beer is filled and sealed it is sterilized. a This is an extreme precaution. The beer is brewed in extreme cleanliness, cooled in filtered air, then filtered. It seems impossible for a taint of impurity to get to it. Yet we sterilize every bottle. We, who know brewing, know the value of purity. We add vastly to the necessary cost of our beer to assure it You who drink it get the healthful results of , our precaution. Your physician knows; ask him. Sdufcr Sdnnnlcker.
