Cua. T. Noland. representing the American Railway Construction company, was in the city Sunday in tbe interest of the much talked of electric railway between Hutchinson and Arkansas City. In company with E.

Boliuger aud Grant Stafford he was shown over the city and the location discussed. plan is to build an electric Hue from Hutchinson to Wichita, Winfield and Arkansas City covering the intervening towns and such rural country as will be the most profitable to the company. The idea is to build a line for passengers and traflic accommodation, so that the farmer or business man wanting to make a quick trip to a neighboring city or get his goods to market in a hurry can be accommodated. Mr. Noland was favorably impressed with the country through which the railroad may pass, and said he never saw a finer stretch of country than lies between Hutchinson and Wichita.

Of the country in this immediate vicinity, he gave it much praise. Mr. Noland was 6ent out here by the American Railway Construction company to make a preliminary survey of the country and its resources, and if he returns and makes a favorable report, there is scarcely any doubt but that the railwayNwill be built. His company is engaged in the business of building electric railways, and has many in operation in different parts of the country, some of them in localities where there is less population than in the counties through which this contemplated line would pass. The advantages of an electric line of this kind to the business man and the farmer are so many, principal of which is the element of quick travel for passenger or freight, and the need of such a line so great, that Winfield will use her every influence to get the road.

The electric in terur ban line is not a recent idea here, for several of our business men have been in correspondence with eastern capitalists for along lime, setting forth the need and benefits from such a road.

Heoacrsoo Topi the rlarLet. J. F. Henderson, of Cowley topped the cattle market yesterday, witn a prime drove of steers, of his own feeding, at 87.20 per cwt. They averaged 1,360 lbs and had been on full feed for over six months.

They were feed on corn ground by a air-banks-Morse gasoline engine grinder. Mr. Henderson has been in the feeding business for twenty yearB, is one of the very best beef makers in the state, and says these are the highest priced cattle he ever sold. This shipment is quite a feather in the cfp of Cowley, as a cattle feeding county, and Greenwood county will have to look to her laurels. A.

R. McMullen, of Stella, got second money yes terday at $0.75 per cwt, for a shipment of corn-fed native steers, averaging 1,212 lbs. Mc Mullen's cattle are al ways well finished, and his reputation on this market helps sell his cattle. Both lots of the cattle were sold by Elmore and Cooper. Drovers Thla Advlca U.

Children often cry, not from pain, but from hunger, although fed abun dantly.

The entire trouble arises from inanition, their food is not assimilated, but devoured by worms.
