was waiting for the ticket the mad

onto the platform. "Do I take the

get to Sheridan Park?" he asked of a
man who was too busy to answer.
"They only go one way," laughed a

enough to notice his predicament.

every minute to hear the conductor

let go of the strap to walk to the end

Chicago, July 30.—It is now esti-
mated by officials of the Chicago, St.
Paul and Minnesota railroad that the
Pacific Coast extension will have cost
when opened for traffic the first of
next year, a total of $77,000,000.
This Is $5,000,000 more than the or-
iginal estimate. Sufficient funds are
on hand to complete the great pro-
ject, It is said.
The extension is 1,380 miles long
and continues the St. Paul road from
the former terminus in North Dakota
to Seattle, on the Pacific coast. It
was commenced about two years ago
and is looked upon as the most im-
portant railroad construction in re-
cent years.
