A Short Lived Lake,

"A month hence" says a California
engineer of reputation, 1.-The Salton lake
will have dried up" Salton lake, it will
be remembered, is the shallow inland
sea which was formed by a break in the
Colorado river, whose waters in modern
times, at least, flowed into the Gulf OF
California, as we know it. The basin OF
the short lived lake, however, was once
part of the gulf, and if the flow OF
water had continued some modern i'm
~provements might indeed have been eff
fected. The river will not boom again
till spring, when the lake may refill.
Any device that could render it perma-
nent would have a mitigating effect
upon the dreaded Arizona climate, OF
which dire stories are told. Worse
things could happen than the tapping Of
the Colorado river higher up, SO that all
its waters might flow into the old chan
nels and make the wilderness blossom
with the rose.-New York Commercial
Advertiser.

Marrow Wagon Tires and Bad Roads.
While the subject of new roads is be-
ing agitated by the legislatures and the
agricultural journals, the farmers are
busy working up the subject in a prac-
tical-though possibly not in the most
proper-way by industriously, and at
much expense of time and team, cutting
up and destroying the roads by driving
heavily loaded, narrow tired wagons
over them. When we see q man or q
heavily loaded, narrow tired wagon urg-
ing along his jaded team, engaged to his
utmost power in making mud, and then
grumbling because of the '.horrid'
muddy roads, he seems to be an object
for pity.
The only thing he seems disposed to
do to make matters different is to throw
some hard words into the muddiest
places, and then continue his custom OF
turning out on to the highway with his
rut digger every time the ground is too
wet for blowing. Now, if the legisla-
ture is to do anything for the roads, let
them begin by legislating the narrow
tires off the heavy lumber and truck
wagons. | have seen a single heavy,
narrow tired wagon in the distance of a
half mile more damage than could
be repaired in six days of ordinary road
work.
The question seems to be about this
Which is the better economy, wide
tires and good roads or narrow tires and
bad roads? The narrow tires are as
much out of place on tie farm as on the
highway. Men admit that facts and
philosophy are in favor of wide tires,
and say that when all the others use
wide tires they will do so. They seem
to be afraid that they will do more than
Their proportionate share of good in this
world. 1t seems that the Legislature
may have to help them Il of their ruts.

Tommy Picked the Police Chiefs Pocket.
In Madison, Wis, there is a chief OF
police, j. E. Adamson, who is Clubbing
himself. Saturday he visited Chicago
to get Thomas Kingston, aged fourteen
who was wanted at Madison for larceny.
He had been arrested by Chicago off
GERS. Late in the evening he hand
cufed himself to young Kingston and
started for the train. Before it reached
Desplaines the chief was snoring loud
and long.
Kingston is cunning little rascal.
He saw his opportunity. He quietly
went through the pockets of the sleeping
chief and found the key which unlocked
his handcuff. Stealthily he crept over
the snoring officer. and when the train
stopped at Desplaines the chief and his
youthful prisoner parted company.
The train had gone a good many
miles when Chief Adamson awoke. OF
course he was mad, but when he looked
for the key with which to remove the
handcuff from his own wrist his wrath
knew no bounds, for Tommy had taken
it with him. All efforts to remove the
bracelet We're fruitless, and until he
reached Madison his left hand and wrist
were buried deep in his overcoat pocket.
They were 'sout of sight"
Kingston was picked up by Chicago
officers. He is at the Desplaines street
station waiting for another bout with
Chief Adamson.-Chicago Tribune.
