win Build Due West.

An eastern exchange says that President
Moffatt, of the ID. & r. G., is now in New
York, and that his presence in the met
ropolis is in connection with the building
of railway which will run almost due
west from Denver. This would bring it
to some point near Nephi. 1t is probable,
however, that if any road is built, Salt
Lake will be ''due west enough" to an
swer all purposes. Everybody knows, "
says the same authority" that the Rio
Grande has intended to build a short line.
President Moffatt, himself, many moons
ago, told reporter that the Acequia cut
off would be constructed.
The organization of new corporation to
build the line, however, is decidedly in the
nature of surprise. 1t will. of course, be
under control Of the Rio Grande, but its
financial affairs will be upon an independ-
emit basis. Under present circumstances
surmises as to the true meaning of the
move would be little more than
guesses. Mr.. Moffatt evidently proposes
to make the fight against the new line Of
the Santa Fe as interesting as possible
He will not only construct his own road
from Grand Junction west, but will stimuli
taneously run an air line out of Denver.

which is to be celebrated in royal style at
the town named. The wires are dumb on
the question, and there is nothing DOW to
indicate whether the opening will take
place this month, or next. In one quarter
it is said that the delay is due the nou-
arrival of certain material which had been
ordered some time ago, and which should
have long ere this arrived at its destina-
ton Others say there is reason to believe
there is hen on, and that hen
is in Chicago at the present time.
1t is well known that urgent bust
ness has summoned j. II. Bennett to Chi
cago, and others connected with the vari-
GUS roads through Colorado are also tempo
rarily residing in the windy city. 1t was
given out in railroad circles yesterday that
a meeting of some kind was to be held in
Chicago to-day. Ii it is held, the dis
patches of tomorrow may tell the story.

A Mountain,s Reelection.

Attention is being called to the fact
that the peak of Teneriffe at dawn casts
upon the ocean a shadow that at first
appears to be fat upon the surface, but
that gradually seems to rise up until it
is perpendicular, and stands apparently
reproduction in black of the real noun:
tain which beside it is white and glow
ing in the sunlight. The scientific ex-
PLANTATION of the phenomenon is that the
shadow at first is really fiat upon the
water, but that, as the heat of the rising
sun causes vapor to rise from the
ocean, the shadow gradually becomes
cast against the bank of fog instead Of
upon the water, and really is straight uT
in the air.-San Francisco Argonaut.

troublesome Journey to a Friend.

Two Charlotte ladies were On the way
to visit relative who lives six miles
from the city, when they saw an old
white woman and two girls hobbling
along in the road. One of the girls was
almost blind and the other was on
clutches. The ladies invited the crippled
girl to ride in their carriage 20 "the turn
of the road" and she accepted. Along
the way the ladies learned quite an in
teresting history Of the trio. They were
from Illinois. and had walked every
mile Of the way from that state. They
were bound for Lincoln country, N. c.,
to visit q relative there They would
always spend the night at the house OF
negroes, as they had heard that the
negroes in this section were better than
the whites. They got money by begging
along the road. They made from six to
ten miles day. After few weeks with
their Lincoln relative they expect te
tramp back to Illinois. Norfolk Land

Aimee Rapin.

"He would have been great artist If
lie had come into the world without
hands," said Leasing of the painter Ra-
phael Tbs remark may contain some
of that exaggeration inseparable from en-
thusiasm, but it is based on a sound COM
mon sense which experience has justified.
To our own day belongs a Swiss artist,
Aimee Rapin, who has attained an envi-
able rank in her profession, without the
use Of hands.
She was strong and healthy child, but
was born without arms. From her earli-
est childhood she showed the most aston
ishing dexterity in the use of her feet,
and as time went on her ability to make
them serve instead of hands was greatly
increased. Her foot coverings were, on
that account, carefully arranged so that
the toes should not be hampered or con-
fined.
One day, while Aimee's mother was
walking in the garden with her little
girl, she was surprised to see the child
suddenly throw off her shoes, pluck a
flower with her left foot and then pull
off the petals, one after another, with
the toes Of her right foot.
After the mothers attention had thus
been drawn to the little girls suppleness
and dexterity she took pains to cultivate
her muscular powers, and succeeded fal
beyond expectation.
The child showed decided talent fol
drawing, and after her school year,
were ended it was decided to allow hel
| to pursue her studies at the School Of
Art at Geneva. There she soon distin
guished herself as an industrious anc
highly gifted pupil.
Miss Rapin now lives in Paris, where
she is known, not as curiosity, but a,
artist of high rank. She has chosen por
trait painting as her speciality, ant
guides her brush, held between the grea
and second toes of the right foot, will
perfect ease and security.-Youth'
Companion.
