II gives us pleasure to cali the attention
OF our readers to the series of advertise
ments OF the James Boss Gold Watch Cas-
es now appearing in our columns This
watch case has been on the market for
nearly thirty years and has attained a
reputation which is second to none, it now
being universally conceded to be standard.
The James Boss Gold Watch Cises are
made Of two plates of solid fourteen karat
gold, soldered on each side OF plate Of
hard nickle composition metal. These
plates OF gold are thick enough to admit Of
engraving, chasing, ETC., and supply all the
gold needed for practical use, while the
composition plate furnishes the strength
and solidity needed in every watch Gaze,
and yet lacking in those made Of solid gold
Although these cases are az good, and in
some points better than a solid gold case,
the cost is only about one.half ms much.
Many of the James Boss Gold Cases have
been IN constant use tor twenty-five years
without wearing through the gold. The
manufacturers furnish guar, ntee with
each case warranting 1t to wear twenty
years, and this guarantee means just what
il says, for unlike other guarantees fur.
nished so often with watch cases, this is
signed by the manufacturers OF the James
Boss Gold Watch Cases. Purchasers should
avoid any watch case unless the guarantee
is signed, ns otherwise it is not only worth
less but is intended so 10 be, and the alb
sence of a reliable signature is fair indica
tion that the manufacturer lacks faith in
his claims or in his goods.

The ex-soldiers and citizens of Toledo did
themselves credit In the handsome manner in
which they received and entertained the famous 4
Continental Guards Of New Orleans. The
Guards are an old organization and the mem.
bership comprises many Of the leading citizen
Of New Orleans, including ex. Governors
Judges and Senators and several representa-
tves OF the press. About half Of the company
served in the Confederate army, three served in
the Union army, including the present Captain
who served on Gen. Buffers staff. They have
visited near all the eastern cities within The
past thirty days and have met with a
grand ovation at every point visited
One night in each city they present n serie,
OF Revolutionary Tableaux that are grand IL

source are to be applied in the erection Of q

OF their pleasant tour among the Yanks. .Tbeii

The Necessity OF CuItIyatIng Forests,


There are in the United States about
100000 miles of railway, employing from
1000 to $500 ties to the mile. The ties
last from five to eight years; consequent
ly, from thirty 10 fifty million ties year
will be required to maintain existing roads,
unless some better means of preserving the
wood is discovered, or some one invents a
tie Of other material rs well adapted to the
purpose as wooden ties are. The product
OF the acre OF woodland is about five hun
dred ties, and it takes about thirty years
to grow tree of the required size hence
from sixty 10 one hundred thousand acres
will have to be cut every year, and from
two to three million acr of forest will be
required to keep up the supply. How
this supply can be kept up without plant
| ing, il IL impossible to see.

How Watch Cases are Made.

Most persons have an ambition to carry
goldwatch case, and yet few people know
how watch case is made, or the vast diff
ference in Inequality of them. Ina SOLID
GOLD WATCH CASE, aside from the neces-
sary thickness for engraving and polishing,
large proportion of the metal is needed
only to stifen and hold the engraved por-
tions in place, and supply strength, The
surplus is not only needless, but undesira-
BILE, because gold is a soft metal and cannot
furnish the stiffness, strength and elasticity
necessary to make the case permanently
strong and close-ftting. The perfect watch
case must combine gold with some metal
that will supply that in which the gold is
deficient. This has been accomplished by
the james Boss Gold Watch Case -, ~ x,,x
which saves the WASTE of need & @
less gold, and INCREASES the soLIDITY and
STRENGTH of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.

"Just after JEFF Davis hnd been car
tured, says n gentleman reported in The
Boston I}areler, al called over at the
White House TO see President Lincoln
I was ushered in, and asked him: well,
Mr.. President, what are you going to do
with JEFF Davis?' Lincoln looked at me
for moment and then said in his pecui-
arly humorous way. That reminds me OF
a story. A boy way out West caught a
coon and tanned il to considerable extent,
but the animal created such mischief
about the house that his mother ordered
him to take it away and not to come home
until ha could return without his pet. The
boy went down town with his coon, Sc
cured with a strong piece of twine, and in
about an hour lie was found sitting on the
edge of a curbstone, holding the coon with
one hand and crying Ms though his heart
would break. A big hearted gentleman
who was passing, stopped and kindly in
quired: "Say, little boy what is the mat
ter?" The boy wiped tear from his eye
with his sleeve, and in an injured tone
howled: "Matter! Ask me what's the
matter You see that coon there? Well
don't know what TO do with the darn
thing. l can't sell il, / cant kill it, and
ma won't let me take it home."

The Chinese Invasion.

Under the above caption the Seat
tie Chronicle pointedly discusses the
question of Mongolian immigration,
in the following language. The
"otticiap who was so swift to invent
reason for the agitation of this sub
ject, as far as the editor of this paper
is concerned, will soon have to tax
his ingenuity to explain why all the
other papers in the Northwest are
urging more effective enforcement
of the restriction law:
There is great need of additional
customs force on the line between
this Territory and British Columbia.
The present force is inadequate to
do the work deyolving upon it. In
stances have recently been brought
to the observation of reliable parties,
OF Chinese invasion of very partic-
uisr character. Several sloops have
been sighted in the archipelago, act
ing IN very strange and suspicious
manner, and Cinnamon have been
captured in the act of making their
way to American soil from British
Columbia The proof of these state
ments is so strong that there can be
no longer question of the fact.
tits not necessary to enter into de-
tail as to the evil results flowing
from the presence of Chinese. Ey-
cry resident of the Pacific coast has
had practical illustration of the con-
sequences following competition of
Mongolians with civilized people.
We do not want Cinnamon in large
numbers in this country. There is
no question OF general Importance to
the Pacific states and territories up
on which there is greater harmony
OF sentiment Experience has for
ever placed the importation of Chi
namen under the ban of public dis
approval. Formerly, California first
received the Chinese and from San
Francisco they gradually spread
about until their presence and infu-
once was felt throughout the entire
coast with greater or less effect.
The restriction of their importation
by this government, however, has
changed the face of the institu-
ton. The point of attack, SO to
speak, has been transferred to the
northern border of Washington Ter
ritory. The building of the Cana
dian Pacific railroad, as in the early
days of railroad construction in Cal
ifornia, has been the means of intro
ducing this undesirable element into
British Columbia. As the compile
ton of this road can be safel y placed

Cascade Branch N. P. R. r.

From today's issue of the Sc attic
POst-InteiIigeRcer we learn that work
is to be commenced at once ON the
Cascade Division of the n. p. r. r.,
and that the contract of building 125
miles has been let to Mr.. T. II. Ben
nett, of New York. 1t further says
the fact that Capt j. T. Kingsbury
had been appointed chief engineer
and superintendent of construction
of the Cascade division of the North
ern Pacific railroad, with orders to
commence at once at three different
points on the line, and push west
ward as rapidly as possible across
the mountains, till connection is
made with the standard guage road
running from Seattle to Green river
This information was at first doubt
ed, but subsequent actions proved its
truthfulness However, in order to
hasten the work along, the Northern
Pacific Railroad Company notified a
few responsible contractors that they
would accept bids for a 125 mile Sec
ton of the road from Ainsworth west
to Yakima City. There were three
bidders, viz: j. B. Montgomery, Nc
Bride q Tilton and L. H. Bennett.
OF New York Bids were opened by
Mr.. V. G. Bogue, Supervising En-
gineer of the Northern Pacific Rail
way Company, on Friday evening,
and yesterday the contract was form
ally entered into with Mr.. T. Fl. Ben
nett, of New York, who was the low
est bidder, to perform the work.
This section will cost little over two
million dollars, and must be COM
pleted under the contract within nine
months from the date Of signing the
contract. Bennett is New Yorker.
an experienced contractor, and IA per
sonal friend of Henry Willard, and is
in readiness to commence work at
once
From the western end of this I25
mile section the old surveys Will be
revised, and j. G. Scurry and party
have been ordered to do the work.
Iand are now on the ground. An eff
fort Will be made to get over the
mountains by an easier route than
the one talked Of As soon as tho
route Is determined upon, contracts
for that section OF the work will be
let There is no longer any doubt
that the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company, under its present manage
ment, Is determined to bald its road
across the mountains to Puget Sound.
and that too, rs soon as possible
