WHY Begin Dinner With soun2

The rationale Of the initial soup has
oftensbeen discussed. Some regard n
as calculated to diminish digestive
power on the theory that so much fluid
taken at first dilutes the gastric Juices.
But there appears to be no foundation
for this belief. A clear soup disappears
almost Immediately after entering the
stomach, and in no way interferes with
the gastric juice, which Is stored in its
appropriate cells ready for action. The
habit Of commencing dinner with soup
has, without doubt, its origin in the
fact that aliment in this fluid form--in
fact, ready digestcd soon enters the
blood and rapidly refreshes the hungry
man, who, after considerable fast
and much activity, sits down with a
sense of exhaustion to commence his
principal meal. In two or three min
utes after he has taken Il plate of good
warm soup the feeling Of exhaustion
disappears, and irritabiity gives way to
the gradual rising sense of good fellow
ship with the circle. Some persons
have the custom Of allayng exhaustion
with glass of sherry before food "a
gastronomlc no less than o physiologic-
al blunder. injuring the stomach and
deprayiug the palate. The soup intro
duces at once into the system a syuall
instalment Of ready digesied food, and
saves the short period Of time which
must be spent BY the stomachin deriv-
ing some nutriment from solid aliment,
as well as indirectly strengthening the
organ Of digestion itself for its forth
coming duties. Sir Henry Thompson,

HELD DOWN TO DIE.
San Fraueiseo Chronicle.

San FrAueisco Chronicle
On the track between South San
Leandro and the High street sta
ton, Alameda, half a mile on the
San Leandro side, is a long trestle
bridge over an estuary of the bay.
For over a mile the trestlc runs
over marshland, the tide rising on
each side of the embankment. Ever
since the railroad has been built
there has been trouble in keeping
the railroad bed from sinking. A
few weeks aSo the track at this
point sunk for $50 feet and traffic
was suspended for a short time.
Last evening, rs the through freight
train from Alameda, drawn by en-
CINE No. 10, a large and heavy ma
chine, and six cars arrived at this
particular point the track sunk, APP
parently more on one side than the
other. The engine was overturned
and the cars piled on top.
The fireman, Dan Driscoll, died a
horrible death. When the engine
turned over he was held to the
ground by an iron bar across his
breast, and one foot was caught by
another. He was fully conscious
at the time of his death. He was
held fast and the tide was rising
rapidly. 1t was evident he would
be drowned in a short time. Six
men were on hand and labored to
save HIM. They wrapped sheets
about his body and exerted their
combined strength to pull him from
his appalling position. He cried
piteously that they were killing
him. They tried again and again,
but with the same result \ levce
was built about his head 10 keep
down the rising tide. Buckets were
brought and by faithful bailing it
was attempted in keeping the water
from reaching his head. He WAS
lying under the cab and a hole was
cut through the ca through which
he could put his head. They raised
his head above the water as much
rs possible.
lie remained thus two hours, but
at last the levee broke, and the men
who were bailing out the water
found thai they could do no more.
They held his head above the wa
ter, which rose slowly about his
body. The men found they must
make a final effort. Then his head
was lowered and they all caught
hold and pulled desperately. 1t
was in vain. They could not move
him. They raised his read again.
The water rose slowly but surely.
1t reached his chin. a friend held
his hand over the drowned mans
mouth. The water rose TO his nos
trils. Nothing more could be done
and he was drowned.

Marias Matters.

John Harris, superintendent OF the
Montana and St. Louis cattle company,
arrived in town from the Marias yester-
day. Mr.. HI. reports his herds in excel
lent condition and that his crop Of calves
is simply immense, even larger than
was expected this favorable year. The
Marias range is new to him, and the
only objection found to it thus far is its
immensely. 1t takes in q scope of coun-
try that would form a good sized state,
including all the territory on this side Of
the Marias and even to Sun river. In
rounding up it is necessary to go over all
of this territory, the cattle men of the
Marias, upper Teton and Sun river
ranges uniting in the work. Beyond
the Marias is the Blackfoot Indian res
ervation, and when cattle cross the river
and wander away they are likely to be
taken in by the noble red man.
Messrs. McLain & Higgins, who are To-
cgted on a tributary of the upper Marias,
near the Blackfoot Agency, reported to
the round up party that they have re-
Gently had several head Of cattle killed
by the Indians, and seem unable to have
the depredations stopped. Mr.. Harris is
very much pleased with his change
from the Shonkin to the Marias, believ-
ing that he is ON the best cattle range
in America. He will transfer his herd
To his new field at oneratiOns this fall
or next spring.
