THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD.
Crossing the Fort Yuma Reservation Despite
Government Orders.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. At Is ascertained
that the recent connection made by the South
ern Pacific Railroad by bridge over the Col
orado river was in direct opposition to orders
from the United States Government 1t ap-
pears that on Aug. 2 Adjutant- General Town
send granted the company permission to build
a road across the Government Reservation at
Fort Yuma. subject to grant by Congress Of n
right OF way. The company proceeded in the
work Of building n bridge on this permission
and 1t was nearly completed when the Secre-
tary Of War. on Sept. 3. countermanded the
permission until both the Southern and Texas
Pacific Companies could be fully heard or Con-
gress should determine the controversy. The
Southern Pacific authorities then asked OF the
department commander permission To continue
the work 30 far as was necessary TO preserve
the. bridge. This was granted. Shortly after
employees OF the company began laying the
track TO make the connection across the bridge.
Major Dunn. commanding at Fort Yuma on
learning the TACT. at once ordered the work
stopped. The whole force under his command
cons sted of a sergeant and one enlisted man.
few moments the railroad men resumed ope-
rations. and the track laying continued
until morning. when connection with the
Arizona side was completed. Major Dunn
ordered Superintendent Of Construction Green
70 consider himself "A prisoner but having no
force 10 carry out his Instructions he returned
10 tho fort. Soon aiterward the regular train
from san Francisco crossed the bridge. The
railroad people claim that this action on their
part is in conformity with the permission
granted to do such work as may. be neces-
sary TO preserve the property. as the connec-
tion WAS necessary 70 enable them 10 run
trains over the bridge, carrying stones for
repairing the piers. and that in building the
road across the reservation the interests of the
Government and the public have been consult
ed at every stop. They also claim that Presi-
dent Bloom. OF tho Texas Pacific. made an ex-
partc statement to the War Department which

How to Dig Potatoes

The season for harvesting potatee s is
near at hanu and "a few words In re-
gard to keer - them may not be amiss.
Among the >.,tious remedies is tie fol
lowing, flom correspondent, which has
proved successful: Dig your potatoes
In good season, before the fall rains. as
they are Tar l. Ger for the table, and
keep te,'et ,lon those that Stay in the
ground late. AS you put a layer Ct
them Il your bin sprinkle them over
with iime. When you have done this,
you hay rest assured that they Will
come Qua Ia The spring as bright as
they were wnen you put them In.
The lime L absorb all the moisture
there IS. AID thus the potatoes are kept
dry aud free from rot
4 neis Dor Of mine raised a number
of bushels oi. the early rose pototoes
last year. but when he came TO dig
in the fail, he found nearly one half of
them rotten, and many of the other
half badly affected He considered
them nearly worthless, and would have
fed them to his hogs. but upon the ad
vice of friend he reluctantly put them
in his cellar, and splinkled them with
lime. The potatoes were not disturbed
during the fall and winter aud in the
spring when be came to examine them,
he was aereeably surprised to find them
in good condition. The lime had
dried up the rot on those that begun
to decay in the fall, So that it was eff
sectually stopped.
But bis method of preserving pota-
toes is not confined to them alone, for
apples can be kept in the sameNway,
equally as well; only they will have to
be wiped with a dry cloth when. they
are used, making little extra labor,
which, however, is amply repaid by
ha7inS a good apple to eat in the sum-
mer. But some might prefer to put
their apples in lime casks, which |
think would be just as WE'LL Vermont
