The wording Of the treaty by which
Arizona was coded to the United States
by Mexico was loosely drawn, otherwise
we would have enjoyed the distinction
of having a deep water harbor. The
line, which leaves Nogales and makes
an angle at that point by taking more
northerly route until it reaches the Col
orado river, should have kept ON a con-
tinuous straight course, which was the
intent of the agreement with Mexico.
1t was arranged to give Arizona a deep
water harbor on the gulf of Mexico by
making the treaty read that the boun-
Diary should be drawn in a straight line
from Nogales to a point 20 miles below
the mouth of the Colorado river. After
the papers were drawn up and signed it
was observed that the reading had been
changed to make the line run to point
20 miles below the mouth Of the ella
river.
Besides losing the harbor of Port Isa-
bel and 20 miles Of deep water coast,
Arizona lost some Of the best land in
Sonora 1t was considered in the days
when the treaty was signed that Arr
iona soil was not worth cent quarter
of a section, and the matter was dropped
without contesting.
Now that the discovery is made that
the land which the United States gave
up to Mexico by this error is worth more
per acre for the growing of tropical
fruits than any other part of America, il
seems as though our government should
take some steps to recover it, even though
few million dollars were necessary tc

Anew Version of an Old story.

Every one has heard that old and popu-
larly accepted story of Marie Antointtte
and the starving peasants, and it is always
told as an illustration of the heartlessness
and carelessness of royalty concerning the
common people
1t has served its purpose well, but unfor-
tunatcly it is not quite true. Mr.. Mattieu
Williams gives the correct version. He says:
1--WE are told that when Marie Antoinette
was informed of famine in the neighbor-
hood of the Tyrol and of the starving Of
some of the peasants there, she replied, Il
would rather eat pie crust than starve'
Some of the story telers, by the way, have
It pastry, others cake. Thereupon the court
iers giggled at the ignorance of the pam
pered princess, who could suppose that
starving peasants had such an alternative
food as pie crust.
"The ignorance, however, was all on the
side of the c0Hrtiers and those who repeat
the story in its ordinary form, The prin-
cess was the only person in the court who
really understood the habits of the peasants
of the particular districts in question. They
cook their meat, chiefly young veal, by roll
ing it in kind of dough made of sawdust,
mixed with coarse flour to hold it together,
then placing this in an oven or wood en-
bers until the dough is hardened to a tough
crust and the meat is roasted throughout
to the proper point of cooking. Marie An
toinette said she would rather eat pie crust
than starve, knowing that those meat pie
crusts are given to the pigs, and they are
nourished by them and digest them in spite
of the wood sawdust."

Furnishing Idols In China.

A curious case of arrest and punish
ment of idols took place recently at
Foochoo, China. The idols of a certain
temple in that city were those appealed
to by persons who desired to be revenged
on their enemies. They were supposed
to cause death to those against whom
prayers to them were directed. Recently
the Tartar military commander died
suddenly, and the idea got abroad among
the people that he had been slain by the
idols in question. The viceroy of the
province, hearing this, at once gave or
ders that they were to be arrested and
punished. They were of wood and about
feet high. Before being brought for
Judgment before the project, their eyes
were put out so that they should not see
who was their judge and be able to trou-
BILE him either here or hereafter. After
full investigation a report was sent to
the viceroy, who gave orders that the
idols should be beheaded, their bodies be
cast into pond. and their temples sealed
up forever, to prevent them from trou-
bling the peace of the city in future.

A deaf minister clerk had handed to him
a written slip on which were the following
announcements which he was requested TO
make: The new psalmbooks will be used
next Sunday. There will be baptism Of
infants next Sunday. BY some mischance,
however, this clerk took it into his head to
reverse the order of the intimations. Ac.
cordingly he began, There will be bap-
tism of infants next Sunday" He had got
no further when the weak, piping voice Of
the deaf divine was heard from the pulpit,

Switching over the Cascades.

The switchback, by means of which
the Great Northern railway crosses the
Cascade mountains in Washington, is a
wonderful piece of engineering. When
Jim Hill, the president of the Great
Northern, decided to push his road from
Spokane to Puget sound, he had compar-
atively fair field at all points save one.
At that point he was confronted by a
solid mass of granite which blocked his
line for about three miles 1t was de-
termined to tunnel the mountain, but as
the excavation would be nearly three
miles in length and take three years to
complete it was decided TO build tenn
porary road over the mountain in order
to open through connection with the
coast as soon as possible.
The temporary road crosses the crest
of the range through Stevens pass at an
elevation of 4,06S feet, and the different
attitudes are reached by a system Of
nine switchbacks. The road at one place
returns three times to within 800 feet of
its former line, only little higher up
the mountain side, but it thus covers a
distance of four miles in curves. 1t
starts from Tunnel City on the east side
of the mountain and runs to Stevens
City on the west side. Both of these
places are the points which the tunnel
will connect when finished, and they
are % miles apart, yet to reach them
over the switchback a distance of 10
miles must be trayersed.
There are five switches on the western
side of the pass and four on the eastern
side, while the heaviest grade is 211 feet
to the mile. The survey was begun last
July, and when completed force of 700
men were put to work and the road rapid
ly pushed forward. The tracks were
connected Jan. Il. at which time the first
train went over the road. Two freight
trains a week are now being run over it,
but it will not be opened for passenger
traffic until April. Francisco Chron-
icle,

'Some persons" said a promenader,
seem inclined 10 make sport of the young
man who carries his cane by the middle
with the head downward. My own impress
sion is that it is a reasonable and sensible
practice. Some people carry canes and UNI
brellas horizontally under their arms, and
some swing them about thoughtlessly to
the danger and discomfort of others. There
are many, however, who carry their canes
carefully in vertical position by their
sides, and next TO these, so far as the public
safety is concerned, should certainly class
the young man who carries his cane by the
middle. There is little to fear from a cane
SO carried, for usually its head or crook is
heavy enough to bring the cane on a line
that Is nearer vertical than horizontal, anG
1t is almost certain TO be carried steadily il
one position and not fiourished about. -

Caught "A Fox by the Tail.

Larry Hughes, son of Joseph Hughes,
residing in East Whiteland, while eat
ing his midday meal day or two ago
heard dog barking in his yard, and
fastening outside saw a large fox in a
corner of the yard and in front of it a
dog. The animal was fairly trapped by
the two fences behind and the dog in
front. A brilliant idea suddenly ran
through the brain of Larry. Fastening
to the outside of the fence he reached
through and grasped reynard by the
tail. The fox squirmed and tried to bite
the man, but could not reach him on ac-
count of the fence. Larry was in a
quandary. He had the game within
reach. but could not capture it. He
yelled for assistance, and his father
came upon the scene and secured large
box, into which the fox was quickly
placed. West Chester Pa.) News.

Let us observe law common to all trees.
First, neither the stems nor boughs Of the
maple, elm or oak taper except at the point
where they fork. Whenever a stem sends
forth a branch and branch sends on a
smaller bough, bud or stem, they remain
the same in diameter, and the original stem
will increase rather than diminish until its
next branch starts. No bough, branch or
stem ever narrows near its extremity ex-
cept where it parts with a portion Of its
substance by sending off another branch or
stem.
All trees are alike in this respect, and il
all the boughs, branches, stems, buds and
blossoms were combined and united with
out loss of space, they would form round
log the same in size and diameter as the
trunk from which they spring. This is one
of natures imperative laws and never fails
to prove true.-Boston Transcript.
