When it became definitely known shat
the Santa Fe Railroad company had 10.
Gated its western terminus on the Col.
orado river in Runnels county, people
began to speculate in regard to the proba-
BILE future of the town thus located, and
it soon developed that the universal con.
clusion arrived at by thinking men was
10 the effect that "a good town. ought to
be built up at this place. Looking at the
subject from any business stan ipoint led
at once to this conclusion. The surround
ing country is the best, most fertile belt
of territory in Western Texas, and has
the advantage over other sections OF
magnificent water supplies. The i'm.
mediate location Of the town is FORUM
ate, being near the junction of Elm
creek and the Colorado river, with an in
exhaustible supply of fine building stone
--as good as can be found in the state
within one mile OF the public square. In
every natural advantage Ballinger is
ahead of any of her Western sister cities.

In the present scramble for traffic and
the consequent grinding Of rates 1t Il
necessary for all roads, II they are to be
able TO realize pront for their owners,
10 reduce operating expenses to the low
est notch and adopt all known labor-sav-
ing appliances. But at the same time II
must be equally necessary to make the
fixed charges as low as possible.
Many railways are paying and per
cent. interest upon their bonds. These
loans were effected a long time ago,
when the rate Of interest was high and
the terms were the best that could then
be procured.
Times have changed and the same loan
could now be had at or 8 per cent, or
even less. first lien on important
through lines, such as some series of
bonds which were issued years ago, could
now be placed for or - per cent.
The gradual extingnishment OF the ma
tional and municipal debts leaves first
class railway bonds tine most desirable of
all investments aud at the same tue the
safest.
The railways may well take advantage
Of this state Of the money market, for it
would enable them to reduce their fixed
charges to such an extent that q dividend
could often be paid where now it has to
be passed or be exceedingly small. II Rail

Boys save n Train,

A dispatch from New Haven, Conn,
July 90, says; "Christie Holston and
Willie Kehoe, two twelve-year-old boys,
started out OF this city early this morning
to trap birds. Just across West river
they took to the track of the New Haven
& Derby railroad and walked along the
line. Just as they reached the Arlington
cut they saw big bowldsr, weighing
several tons, loosen itself from the top Of
the bank aud roll down upon the track
At the same time the boys heard the whis-
tie of passenger train which was ap-
preaching the cut. The youngsters wit
didn't desert them. Pulling out
red handkerchief Holston tied it
TO stick nc was carrying and
ran toward the train waving his flag OF
warning over his head. Close upon his
heels came Kehoe making desperate eff.
forts to pull off his red shirt for use in
warning the engineer The boys bad no
time to spare, but they ran around the
curve and the engineer saw them Just in
time, bringing his train tot standstill not
far from the big rock, which blocked the
track completely. II took the train
hands over half an hour to clear the line
Meanwhile the passengers descended
from the cars, and after they had seen
what an escape they had had one of them
took up collection for the boys, VINO
found themselves $40 richer for their
quickness. On the train were ex-Gov
Andrews, High Sheriff Gates and other

When Mark Twain arrived in this CITY
from the Sagebrush state, says the San
Francisco Post, he was in his, at that
time, chronic state of impecuniosity. He
had furnished some correspondence to the
Call, and at once made raid on thai office
Tor funds for immediate use and for po-
sition on the local staff. He wore a rag
ged felt hat, a blue soldiers overcoat,
pants which had formed passing ac-
quaintance with the tops of his boots, and
the latter were griltess Of knowledge
oil even the name of backing brush.
George Barnes,who was at that time city
editor VI tho Call, told him to come to
work the next day, and gave HIM an or
der on the business office for money
enough to make himself respectable. The
next day Twain took poss session of his
cnair, and for six weary months Barnes
tried to get some work out of him.
AT the end of that time, in his good
natured way, he tried to let Mark down
and out easily and politely, by saving TO
him "Mark, don't you think YOU are
wasting your time and talents In doing
local work?n
"What DO you mean?n said Mark.
"Why, think with your STYLE and tai
ent you could make more money writing
for tirst-class magazines than in SUCH work
as you are dong now"
THAT means that you don't want me
any more, / suppose;" and he put his
feet on the desk and smiled blandly at
Barnes.
"Well, think you aIe better fitted for
that class Of work"
The fact is, you have come to the con-
clusion that l am not the kind of man you
want" '0-
"Well, ii you viii have it," said Barnes
You are not. You are the LATEST, most
shiftless, good-for-uothing specimen I
ever saw around newspaper office. |
have tried for six months to get some
work out of you and failed, and have
come to the conclusion that 1t is useless
20 keep you any longer.n
Barnes replied Twain, in his most
placid manner, ''you are not as smart a
man as thought you were. You have
been six months in finding that out, and |
knew 1t the day / came to work. Give
us an order on the office for three days'
pay and git"

Tac,r ConcernIng llnnt Powder.

The popular idea is, and l see al the
papers fall into the error of asserting,
that it is exploded by ordinary concus-
sion. That is not true. A giant powder
cartridge can not be exploded except by a
fuse igniting cap flied with illuminate
OF mercury. The burning fuse ignites
the mercury that explodes with sharp
impact, and that sets on the cartridge,
Nman might take hammer and strike
as hard blow as he can on a giant pow
der cartridge but 1t would not go OFF.
But Leu a cap containing a drachm OF full
inmate explode within cartridge, and
away she goes. The popular idea that
this stun is dangerous to handle is also
wrong. II Is a good deal safer than gun
powder, for IL will notgo OF by sudden
contact with fire. In the mines of Ne
yada have seen giant powder cartridges
placed on hot stoves tolthaw Nout. True,
never quite trusted the stun, and when
the process was going on usually gave y
wide berth, but the mipers soon learned
to handle II with the same disregard OF
consequences as they would tallow can
