THE COMING SEAPORT.


The lack of firm foundation OF faith
Is often a hindrance to good invest
ment. We sometimes meet q man who
says ten years ago | could have bought"
AL OF such and such piece OF land by"
the acre for very low figure. and now"
IT has just been sold for hundreds of "
dollars per front foot" or words to that
effect. just so, aud YET we still go ON
making the same mistake, and all be-
cause We hesitate to lead.
But II is the early bird who scoops up
the festive worm. Likewise in new towns
and localities. Many people. who are
otherwise much attracted by the advant-
table Moro Bay are missing golden OPP
portunity by waiting until the place is
better known, and everyone is talking
about it..
TO those who give the matter a little
attention. it must be apparent shat the
railroad passing along the coast and
through San Louis Cbispo county will be.
as it is intended, the favorite route for
travel between Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco.
BY this route, an estimated saving OF
eight hours will be- made in the time re-
quired for travelling between the two
cities. Ell Moro on the coast, ten miles
west Of San Luis Obispo CITY, il only six
miles from the nearest point of the new
line. and there can be no doubt that at
an early date a branch road will connect
this charming seaport with the Southern
Pacific system.
The county of San Luis Obispo. by be-
ing so much more accessible than before,
will receive an extraordinary impetus.
and the value of all real estate will be
very much enhanced, as soon AS the rail-
road is opened. El Moro will share in this
prosperity. and will prove good place for
investment.
Do not make the mistake of waiting,
but look into his matter at once, as we
have sold many lots already. Very de-
sirable lots are now offered for $75 on
easy payments OF S. month without

How Horses Sleep.

When the horse sleeps, one ear is
directly forward, why it is not known.
naturalist thinks this is to guard
against danger, being a survival of
their original wild habits. He says
Watch a horse asleep through the
window of his stable, and make faint
noise to the front. The ear will be all
attention, and probably the other will
hy round sharply to assist. Now let
him go to sleep again, and make the
same noise on one side. The forward
ear will keep his guard, with possibly
lightning flick round, only to re-
sumo its former position. New York

A Defense OF Dirt.

Every few years somebody raises
the question whether st. Paul's Cathe-
dral in London ought not to be cleansed
from the SCOT with which it is en-
crusted, and restored TO something
like its primitive whiteness. Some
time ago an experiment of the sort
was made on one of the porticos, which
forthwith assumed mottled or pie
bald appearance. Now the matter has
come up for discussion again, and the
following interesting point is made in
letter to the Times by well known
architect: 81 have had the opportu-
nifty, when examining some of our
London stone-faced schurches,. of re-
moving the coat of dirt with a view of
seeing the condition of the stone un-
der it, and have found it to be perfect.
The casing of dirt appeared to be made
chiefly of road dust which had adhered
to the stone (only the outer coat of all
being gray black). All the deleterlous
chemicals must have gone out of the
lower layer, so that the dirt was per-
feet protection. If it were all cleaned
of, the stone would be subjected to
the strong chemicals in our London
atmosphere. II must be remembered
that this dirt only adheres to the parts
which are not completely washed by
the rain, and that it is just these parts,
therefore, which are in most need of
protection. If at some future time
the atmosphere of London should be
as pure as the atmosphere of the coun-
try is now, it might be wise to act on
the suggestion, but until that time
comes l sincerely trust that no such
experiment will be made. Washing

Creameries scattered over many
parts of the East are making consider
able change in the conditions of farm
ing, the Chicago Herald takes note.
The dairy is becoming more and more
important, and poor farms are en-
riched by the presence of many cattle.
The creameries buy milk by the hum
dred pounds and farmers like the
simplicity of this wholesale trade.
Meanwhile there is a constant interest
in creamery prices and local news
papers publish quotations from time
to time as news items.

Certain tables of longevity just pub
lisbed in England by Professor
Humphreys leave the whole matter
pretty much in the dark. OF the S2A

over hundred years, one.third were

pear to have had robust appetites.
Physioians, as class, were found tc

directions for prolonging lie by diet,
sleep and exercise are not strikingly
confirmed by those tables, maintains

The detective now recognized TO the
full extent the really serious nature
of his position; and, half dazed by
the terrible calamity which had so
suddenly befallen him, was giving mp
all hope of escape, when for the first
time the leader of the gang-Michael
Vaughan-himself spoke.
"Leave him to me, lads, and get
you along while you may. There's
not jiffy to lose. Herk hear thI
trapsl They're breaking in already"
"We don't go until we've choked
the life out of the rat. Who's put
'em on our trail? Run him up sharp
and have him a pleasant surprise to
his friends" replied one of the ruff
fans.
With these words the unfortunate
officer was jerked off his feet, but at
the same moment Vaughan snatched
up formidable knife and at a single
stroke severed the rope above his head.
'Tm with you, Mr.. Bond" eiacu-
lated Vaughan, with grim determine
ton stamped upon his white face.
"Ahal see how my mutinous clev
sink back from your bulldogi And
by all that's lucky for us. both, here
come your men. Another minutes
delay and reckon it would have gone
q bit hard for us both"
Almost before he had finished
speaking the long cellar-like room be-
came for short space scene of des
perate struggling, the walls echoing 9
chorus of savage cries and shouts.
OF all the msmbers of the gang theiI
leader alone offered no resistance, but
lapsed into moody silence.
Only when the opportunity offered
did he whisper in the detectives ear
''You see, I haven't forgotten wha
1 once promised, sir, although yol

A VOICE FROM THE N1oHT.
o heron, from tho lonely shore
Increasingly thy cry, 6
Ill-boding, dismal, harah,
Arises through the mist Of night
Tat gathers deep and cold and white
Upon the silent marsh,
Dim, drifting shrouds that folded lie
Around nv door.
What shadow OF the futures needs
Dismays thy simple heart,
Poor dweller in tho fog2
What evil spirit Of unrest
Disturbs the quiet OF thy nest
Beyond the tussocked bog2
Do demons even ply their art
Among the reeds2
Perhaps thy brlght-eyed mate is led
Across the winding creek,
Bel ated, tired Of wing.
Then grieve not Soon thy loving note
As beacon's blaze to storm-tossed boat
The wanderer will bring.
o heron, can the words speak
Recall the dead2
y heron on the lonely shore,
The east is gray above;
Thy watch is well nigh done,
And gentle dawn will bring thee sleep,
While my endless vigil keep,
Jnwelcoming the sun;
For she, my light, my life, my love,
VIII come no more.

HIgh smOkestacks tor FaclorIes.

Aside from the fact that tall chin
neys are better for the public health,
by hitting the deleterious product OF
combustion far into the upper air, it
would seem that technical considera-
tions alone might recommend them.
But there has been a fad lately for low
ehimneys in factories, and w. B. lie
Van expresses the weighty opinion
that they are a mistake. As to first
cost, there is no saving over a high,
well-proportioned chimney, and the
entire drift of manufacturing require
ments demands the building of high
chimneys 80 as to enable more fuel to
be burned in given time and space,
thus increasing the power and output
of the boilers. A rapid draft is equiv
alent to large fire-grate area, and
has the advantage that the heat is
transmitted much more rapidly TO the
boiler by reason of the higher temper
ature obtained. Moreover, in many
industries, the goods produced are
liable to be spoiled by smoke and smut
permeating the lower strata of the
atmosphere. Atlanta journal.

A notable example of big result
produced by small means is found in
the fact that lead pencil users have
Whitfield away several big forests of
cedar trees in Europe, and the supply
of wood suitable for lead pencils is
practically exhausted in the Old
World. An order has just been placed
by a noted German firm of. pencil
makers with California lumber com
pany for largo quantity of sequoia
wood. which isfound to be the best
wood now available for pencils. The
sequoia is the big tree OF California.
1t seems too bad to the New York
Sun that the grand old giants should
be sacrificed, and especially that their
end should be lead pencil shavings.

What is probably one of the finest
moose-heads in the world was taken
to Bangor, Me-, this week by G. H.
Croeker, of Fitzburg, Mass. The ami
NAL was shot up in Aroostook County
at the OK Bow, and the moose weighed
1400 pounds. 1t is about absolutely
perfect IN size, shape and spread Of
the antlers. The, antlers spread sixty
inches, and when it is considered that
fifty-one inches is large spread, some
idea of the immense antlers of this
moose is obtained. The largest set OF
antlers of which there is any record is
sixty-one inches, and this moose sur
passed that animal in the shape and
formation. Boston Herald.
