sTOwAWAY,s EXPERIENCE

Half Dead from Thirst and Starva-
 tion-Nine Days without Drink or Food.
 NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-The Morgan line steamer Fl Monte arrived last night from New Orleans. When the forward hatch was removed this morning there was found outstretched upon the cotton a man named Charles Bursell, thirty three years old, half dead from thirst and starvation. He was taken to St. Vincent's hospital. The surgeons think he will recover, but it will take some time. He was able to talk when discovered, but when questioned about his experience would only exclaim ''it's
 too horrible! it's too horrible l can't
 describe it." Later he said he was a
 cooper and lived in Rockland, Me-, and
 that he did not intend to stow himself away in the steamer, but had crawled into the orlop deck to sleep, not knowing that the steamer was to sail so soon. During the nine days of the voyage he had no, had mouthful to drink or eat and the doctors do not think he could have sur vived another day. The chief officer re members seeing Bursell in New Orleans where he boarded the steamer and asked to be shipped as one of the crew. H. l thinks the man slowed himself away l thinking he could get out when the steamer got to sea-

THE DENVER & Ell PAso ROAD.

Recent exciting events appear to
have driven all public attention from
an enterprise that is of vital i'm
portance to Denver and to the great
rich country that lies to the south of
it. The promoters of the Denver
& FL Paso Independent road, how
ever, have not been idle, but have
been quietly at work perfecting
plans, and they now expect within a
short time to offer the bonds of the
road on the market. Their sale will
mean the immediate beginning of
the work, and when active opera
tions have once been begun, there is
every assurance that the line will be
steadily and speedily pushed to COM
pletion.
The construction of railroad on
the proposed route is one of large
importance to Denver, Pueblo,
Trinidad, Las Vegas, White oaks
and FL Paso-these being the princi
pal points on the route. The bene-
fits to be derived from the road have
been SO repeatedly set forth that they
need not again be gone into at
length. TO Denver, Pueblo and
Trinidad the new line will open up
a more direct connection with New
Mexico, and one that will not fail to
conduce to their commercial ad.
vantage. The same results will be
assured to Las Vegas, while to
White Oaks and the rich mineral
country surrounding it the road will

SAFER PASSENGER CARS.

One of the most interesting new
enterprises of the year is the
organization of strong company
which proposes to build cylindrical
or "whaleback" steel cars for use.
The works will be established at
West Superior, Wis, where the
"whaleback" vessels, now familiar
on the lakes, are built, and the sue
cess of the "McDougal" pigs IN the
water has doubtless had much to do
with trial of a similar pattern on
land. In so far rs the new style may
be used for freight purposes the pub
lie will have comparatively little at
stake, and the success or failure of
the venture will mainly concern the
men who have the money invested.
1t will be a matter of the liveliest
interest, however, to all persons who
travel by railroad if the steel cars
which are to be built for experiment.
al work use in passenger traffic shall
prove all that the hackers of the en-
terprise hope and expect. 1t has
been apparent for many years to all
who have studied the conditions un-
der which great loss of life have
taken place in railroad wrecks that
stronger and less infammable cars
would go far toward preventing such
wholesale slaughter as now and
then shocks the country.
In collisions the passengers in the
Pullmans have often escaped serious
injury when ordinary day cars, being
much more lightly constructed, have
been ground to pieces and their in
mates horribly mangled. The dead
ly work of fire in wrecks is too fa-
miliar to need comment, and it must
be considered certain that if all pas.
senger cars could be framed and
walled with steel, or made entirely
with aluminium, the danger of those
frlghtful accidents in which men and
women are imprisoned under the tim
Der of burning cars and slowly con-
sumed by the flames would be
greatly lessened. 1t has been
urged many times within the
last years that railroad passenger
cars should be much more strongly
constructed as a precaution against
needless loss of life, and it is well to
know that an experiment is to be
made on a large scale in the building
of comparatively fireproof and indie
structible cars for the use of passen-
gers as well as freight.-Locomotive
Engineering.

create an era of development such as
has never before been witnessed in
the western country. To FL Paso
the road will be of special advantage
as putting it in connection with a
new territory naturally tributary TO
its trade. There is not a point on
the proposed route that will not be
measurably benefited by the con-
struction of this 500 miles of new
railroad.
AS an investment there is no road
in the Rocky mountain country that
will command larger or more re-
munerative traffic. 1t penetrates a
mining, coal, timber and agricultural
country that is unsurpassed in ma
terial wealth and whose traffic, as de-
veloped by the new road, will assure
very large ana steady returns.
Viewed from any standpoint, there is
no enterprise now before the public
which is more entitled to its favor,o
which demands the more considerate
attention of capitalists and investors.
1t will be a fortunate day for Den~
vel when it is begun, and a still more
fortunate one for all the cities named
when its trains shall be running from
this city to FL Paso.-Denver News.

A TRIP.

After trying some time to ascertain
whether the alarm clock could with
safety be trusted, man by the name
of Newt Shirley retired, in all proba-
bility to dream about the trip he in
tended to make next day, starting at
the early hour of o'clock. How
ever, his sleep proved anything but
peaceful, as each time the clock
shifted her busy hands, showing an
hour had passed, Newt arose, rubbed
his eyes, and with much surprise
noted that some time yet remained
before the starting hour. However,
it came at last, as all things do to
those who wait. A very jolly party,
consisting of men, women and chill
dren, started that morning for two
weeks outing among the Rockies.
We found some very good and re-
liable drivers, and Jim Christal was
chosen to do the plotting. He was
considered the most capable TO see

many dangerous places. Although
some very loud screaming occurred,
he remained self-possessed, only
complaining of his right arm, per~
sisting it was talked off. But he is
a fortunate man, so still has the use
of that member. He, however, was
not so lucky as Ray Salisbury, who
found diamond an inch long and
half an inch wide. lie feared to
sleep in an open tent with such for
tune in his possession, but after ex-
aiming all the guns he was at last
persuaded to retire. The bright
light of the moon revealed him start
ing up in his sleep and holding the
very precious gem up to the light to
see that it was not dream, but a
reality. He at length fell into a
peaceful slumber, and when he
awoke his first thought was of his
diamond. And it was indeed very
amusing when, after searching for
some time and failing to find it, he
looked from one to the other in mute
appeal. Suddenly he turned to his
better half and exclaimed: "You
have itw OF course the joke could
be carried no further, for we feared
it would prove fatal, so he was made
happy by again seeing the wonderful
diamond.
One morning before we had par.
taken of breakfast, Thomas Smith
and Ed Keen set out to visit a snow.
covered mountain which seemed
about half a mile away. They
walked on-on-on,-yet still they
seemed no nearer, and after four oil
five miles walk they sat down and
concluded to take separate routes
After climbing over rocks and logs
for some time Keen sat down to rest
and then return to camp. He sat fol
some time watching mysterious
object between the trees. So slowly
and with gun in hand ready to STAY
the sly intruder, he crept on, and
imagine his surprise to see his friend
Smith ready for a plunge in what
was not one yard of water. "Hello

"You amt going to go in there,

to camp, and they did not need any

the Mckinley bill increased the
wages of the workmen in sixty-seven
industries an average of $23.ll for
2s5,OOO employees, while the average
increase of wages for the employees
in fifty.one trades was $4,000. In

there was an increase in production

taste for climbing and getting cactus
and other wild vines was very badly
poisoned by plant resembling the
wax plant. DIR. Milligan, however,
having thoughtfully brought his
medicine case, soon relieved her
suffering, and she had no further
trouble until the last evening of
camping bliss, the object of annoyo
ance this time being small bug in
her ear. Although this seemed
laughable to the others it was not so
to her.
One eve while all were enjoying
the camp fire, they were startled by
hearing noises as if made by some
wild beast. Some remained still
and speechless while others rushed
for the tents. Mrs Salisbury was
very much frightened and had her
little ones smothered away in a
pile of blankets. Imagine our amuse-
ment to find that the cause of our
alarm was Smith with a fishpole and
cord tied to piece of pine, which,
when whirled fast over his head,
made a noise that would cause the
most courageous to tremble.
We, however, were not frightened
out of attending the corn dance. We
were the only Americans present
but made friends with the Pueblos
and can speak very highly of all
whom we met.
One family upon whom we called
insisted that we remain for dinner
and as we had never eaten In a Mex
lean house we accepted the invitation
and were surprised at the taste our
friends showed in cooking and serv-
ing and we found our appetites re-
turning at the sight of the dinner.
We left pleased with our reception
and carrying with us a very favora-
BILE impression of the Mexican and
his home.
One young lady of our party was
a complete stranger to New Mexico
ways-Mlss Essie Salisbury, of EN-
poria, Kansas. She was not, however,
a stranger to driving, for one day
while preparing luncheon we were
surprised to see Miss Essie driving
up the canyon where few men would
care to go, handling the lines with
perfect ease, not giving them up even
at the most rocky and dangerous
points. Such young ladies are he
roines in real life and deserve COM
mendation for their noble conduct.
Mrs. Newt. Shirley proved very
brave until the stubborn mule caused
the buggy almost to upset. Then
her real character came to light and
we found she was afraid to give up
this world and pass on to that other

to life with fond hopes that the NOR

MURDER ON WEST MAIN STREET

John Igo Killed by John Ennis in a
 Fight on West Main Street Late This
 Afternoon.
 John Ennis of 45 Gilbert street was ar rested at 3:15 o'clock this afternoon charged with the murder of John Igo.
 The trouble began in Mark Katz's bar Der shop, 471 West Main street shortly before o'clock. According to one ac- count Ennis after being shaved said to Igo: "Its your turn next," to which the latter replied: "Do you sup pose I would sit in the chair after you. " This led to an argument and the men engaged in a qurrrel on the sidewalk, in which Igo was knocked down, his head striking against stone door step.
 He was picked up unconscious and ta- ken to his home, but was dead before the arrival of Dr. Castle.
 Another report says that both men were shaved and began the quarrel after leaving the barber shop. Both were so- Der. Igo was subject to epileptic fits and has not worked for several months. He was about 30 years of age and un- married. Ennis also is unmarried and is of about the same age as his victim.
