But perhaps the I.! C. C. did not know today was Mr. Har-' riman's birthday. It was just fiftv-nine years ago, on February 25, 1849, that the man who now controls over 25,000 miles of rail road with a total capitalization of over $1,700,000,000, first saw the light of day in the rectory of a little church at Hempetead, L. 1., where his father was an Episcopal minister. • Young Harriman entered Wall street as a clerk in the sixties. In 1870, when 32 years of age, he was a-:le to buy a seat on the New York Stock Ex change. In 18S3 he came actively into j the railroad field. In 1887 he became vice-president of the Illinois Central Railroal. The year 1907 finds him in control not only of the Illinois Central but the Union Pacific, Southern Paci fic, Baltimore & Ohio,' Chicago & Al ton, and Kansas City Southern. And now the Interstate Commerce Commission purposes to find out how he did it. It has already conducted hearings in Chicago and on the Pacific coast, relative to the traffic and opera ting departments of the Harriman roads. Today the hearing was resumed in this city with special reference to the financial methods of the Harriman corporations. . - That the greatest importance is at tached ta the present stage of the in- . vestigaticn is evidenced by the fact that Chairman Knapp has brought all the members of the commission to New York to take part in the inqquiry. Heretofore it has been deemed suffi cient for only one or two of the com missioners to conduct a hearing. It is expected that the commission v/ill sit continuously here until the in vestigation is over. The examination of Mr. Harriman is to be the first feat ure on the programe. When his testi mony has been obtained that of Jacob H. Schiff, D. Ogden Mills, William Rockefeller and other big financiers will be sought. Several of those whose testimony is desired are in Europe and it is thought quqite likely that they will find it convenient to remain abroad unail the investigation is con cluded. Prominent among the absen tees are James Stillman and Charles A. Peabody, president of the Mutual Life Insurance Company and a direc tor in both the Union Pacific and Illi nois Central railroads. H. H. Rogers and Henry C. Frick probably will be called upon to' tel! what they know regarding the Harriman system of fi nance. President Winchell of the Rock Island, President Felton of the Alton and a number of other railroad execu tives arc also slated to take the stand as witnesses. Postmaster Would Be Mayor. Chicago, 111., February 25. — The standard bearer of the Republican par ty in the coming mayoralty campaign doubtless will be selected at today's primaries, subject to confirmation at the party convention next Saturday. Postmaster Frederick A. Busse, who has conducted an active fight appears fo have the best chance of landing the plum—or the lemon, as the result ot the April election may decide. Bussc has a strong organization at his back and has the support of the Republicans generally. He has held state, county and city offices and is well versed in every thing that con cerns the game of politics as it is played in the Windy City. He is not exactly in favor with the business element of the party, which would prefer that the mayoralty nomination go to Alexander H. Revell or some business man of high standing, particu larly in view of the fact that the contest this year hinges on a busi ness proposition, namely, the question of the street car franchises.

I and SLOP %: Pruggigta j FLUE CURING IMPROVESTOBACCO LIKE ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE Flue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste - Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger •~ \ y There are three ways used by far mers for curing and preparing their tobacco for the market; namely, sun cured, air cured and flue cured. The V. ' old and cheap way is called air cured; the'later discovery and improved way is called flue cured. In flue-curing the tobacco.is taken from the field and suspended over intensely hot flues in houses especially built to re tain the heat, and there kept in the proper temperature until this curing process developes in the tobacco the stimulating -taste and fragrant aroma found in Schnapps tobacco, just as green coffee is made fragrant and stimulating by the roasting process. Only choice selections of this ripe, juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the famous Piedmont country, where the best tobacco- grows, are used in Schnapps and other Reynolds' brands of high grade, flue cured tobaccos.

Hundreds of imitation brands are on sale that look like Schnapps; the outside of the imitation plugs of to bacco is flue cured, but the inside is filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened air cured tobacco; one chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger longer than two chews of such tobacco. Expert tests prove that this flue cured tobacco, grown in the famous • Piedmont region, requires and takes less sweetening than any other kind, and has a wholesome, stimulating, satisfying effect on chewers. If the kind of tobacco you are chewing don't satisfy, more than the mere habit of expectorating, stop fooling yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco. Schnapps is like the tobacco chew ers formerly bought costing from 75c. to SI.OO per pound; Schnapps is sold at 50c. per pound in sc. cuts, strictly 10 and 15 cent plugs. ~ ~ EULOGIZE'RIXEY!
