Railroad Items

Major G. W. Vaughn returned last night from trip over the pro posed" or contemplated" railroad and says that he found everything in good condition: The work is progressing as rapidly as possible considering delay and disappoint- ment in regard to track laying on account of the failure to receive the spikes and bolts. The first shipment was made August 18th, and the work will be pushed on the first ten or twelve miles If track, just as soon as they arrive at Ash Fork.
 Major Vaughn was asked if a route had been decided on yet south of town out of the various prelimi- nary lines run, to which he replied 1t had The route selected goes up Willow creek to its source and thence via Iron Springs. The great est difficulty experienced in this route was getting down the ether side, as the western slope is rather steep, but he said that the first ten miles of the line on that side has been located and they have reached point where no further difficulty Is apprehended.
 He further stated that it was their intention to increase the grading force of men a. work south of town just as soon as possible. as the first twenty miles out of Pres cott south would be the heaviest work they would have between Pres colt and Phenix. Four engineering parties are still in the field working out the line southward.

Wild Animals Tanned by Good Food.
 Old baboons, naturally the most surly of prisoners, will treat their keeper with a fihal affection varying with the quality of the menu, and a first class caterer can manage to do mesticate even such boarders as wolves and reptiles. A German colonist of New Freyburg, Brazil, has collected a houseful of stuffed birds, that have been described by several travellers, but in the opinion of the natives the curiosities of his museum are eclipsed by the menag- erie of his daughter, whose culinary talents have charmed the souls of some of the widest denizens of the forest, including several tree snakes (which in Mexico, too, are often do- mesticated for housing purposes) and a large boa, a formidable look ing monster with the disposition of a lapdog, that will share the children's s breakfast of milk and bread and at a signal of his benefactress will curl himself up in her apron with a su- pernumerary coil or two around her feet.
 But an indigestion or a brief delay of the dinner hour is liable to modify the amiable disposition of such pets, and beast trainers who keep boas for exhibition purposes generally take care to postpone their performances till after meal times. San Francisco Chronicle.

An Aa,er,,..mep, or ,h. Past.


 The art of advertising Is carried pretty far in these days, but after all there is nothing new under the sun, and very likely if the hieroglyphics of the Egyptian sculptures were prop erly understood they would be found to be merely advertisements of pat ent nostrums, cosmetics and gin- cracks generally. At least as far back as the publication of newspa- pers has extended the art has been always much the same.
 An instance Is to be found in the advertisement of l7S years ago, in which were set forth the virtues of a medicine, which cured all sorts of diseases by promoting the cheerful Cutcle of the Blood and Juices rais- ing all the Fluids from their languid State to one more tiorsd and spar kling, restoring Juvenile Bloom, in- creasing the animal Spirits, and evi- dently replenishing the crispy fibers of the whole Habit with generous Warmth and balmy Moisture, and thereby invigorating to such Dc gree, as not to be imagined. It is an admirable Remedy in all Weakness of the Body or Decay of Constitution of any Kind, and even seems to keep Back the Effects of Old-age itself"
 This Is hardly to be outdone in these days of abundant advertising, when the profession of writing ad- vertisements is recognized as & legiti- mate business, on plane somewhat lower, 1t Is true, theoretically, than tho writing of epics, but equally legitimate and far more profitable.-- Boston Courier.

r.,ma cr,,lei.e., the p,.hop.. I.s..

In the Souvenirs de Mme. Reca- miern there is a pleasant description of n scene which took place during her exile at Lyons in 1913. Almost every cultivated or fashionable indi- vidual who passed through that city was sure to be attracted to her house. Talma, the tragedian, happened to be giving some representations in the Grand theater and was dining with Mme Recamier, when the bish- op of Troyes (better known as the abbe of Boulogne) was announced. This celebrated preacher, though de- voted to literature and familiar with the works of the great playwrights. had never seen play performed.
 After dinner Talma was persuaded to recite, to the intense qualification of the abbe, parts from his principal roles. In return Talma begged the ecclesiastic to repeat some passages of his sermons. When he had done so, 1t is splendid, monseigneur, as far as this !" exclaimed Talma, touch ing the chest of the preacher, ''but the lower part of your body is de- plorable. Clearly, you have never bestowed a thought upon your legs. !"

Loves Demand.

A man did woo a maiden fair. With lovely eyes and golden hair; He swore to her he would be true, For her there was nothing he would
 not do. With loving gaze and expectant eyes, She told him that to gain the prize A hat from Mrs. Blaine she must
 possess, Or life would be but wretchedness. He bought her beauty in every re-
 spect, It was simply elegant, yes quite
 select; She married him then without more
 ado, And they loved each other and the
 little hat too. A11-lm

A dashing knight of the grip, with his sample case in his hand and his best girl hanging to his arm, saunters up and down the station until just the nick of time, and then-here's the art of kissing itself-he steps lightly forward with the left foot his left arm passes stealthily but completely around her waist her head is thrown back until it just touches his shoul. der, while her lips pucker and her eyes twinkle, he bends slightly and their lips meet Then, with a wave of the hand, he steps on the train as 1t begins to move.-New York Journal

The Compa.. Plant.

On the western prairie is found what is called the compass plant which is of great value to travellers. The long leaves at the base of its stem are placed, not fat as in plants generally, but in a vertical position, and present their edges north and south. The peculiar propensity of the plant is attributed to the fact that both surfaces of its leaves dis play an equal receptivity for light, whereas the upper surfaces of the leaves of most plants are more sen 'sitive to light than the lower. The leaves thus assume a vertical posi- ton and point north and south. Travellers on dark nights are said to feel the edges of the leaves to ascer- tain the point of the compass.-Bos- ton Globe.
