Mining, which attracted 50 many hum

years ago, has lost its glamour, hunting

western scale requires too much capi'

western farm mortgages has been dis

things hawe tended 70 atagnate the

il alarming to Ill concerned, capital
and labor alike.
An opportunity has presented itself
at .last, .through Whist = known - the
Carey law, passed by tho Efty-third
congress, by which each of eight west
ern states was granted one million
acres of arid land located within their
borders on condition that they utilize
them Tor xRricu1ture, through irriga-
tiea, and proveto the secretary Of the
interior that their irrigation plans are
feasible.
Five Of the eight states have accepted
the proposition, and one more is ex-
pected to reply favorably sbefore long.
The national irrigation congress, =
body composed of-drleeates from TWEEN
ty-three western states, has appointed
] national irrigation commission, which
body il engaged in forming colonies ia
take mp these arid lands and carry them
on by irrigation underpreper and scien-

Some Of the details Of the scheme
arc given in the Boston Transcript. It
y he purpose Of the commission to
form colonial clubs throughout the east,
wherever there Is congestion Of popur

information concerning the present and

Strawberries and most Of the vegets-
bles begin their movement north from
the territory bordering the Gulf OF Mex
loo, Gays the Chicago Journal. It is ftom
Louisiana and Mississippi that they arc
coming now. Strawberries from Flor
ida were in the market. at the end Of
Februry, slightly delayed on account
Of the severe weather there. From
Louisiana they are shipped in twenty
four pint cases, which are disposed Of

Cabbnges, cucumbers, head lettuce,

Of New Orleans. Cucumbers of . very

is extensive hot-house gardening, and
these New England shipments ytill
make up over half Of the supply on tho

Boston.
Asparagus comes from nearer home.

The Paw Train.

The coming of "The Pay Train" is
being heralded in an elaborate manner
in this city. The date selected for its
presentation being Nov. 22nd. This
will afford those who revel in sensa-
tional features and elaborate mechan-
ical effects, most enjoyable evenings
entertainment, for not only does this
play tell well defined and interesting
story, with its plot and counter plot,
but the whole is embellished with the
most elaborate and tellingly effective
scenic and mechanical effects of any of
the many railroad plays thathave been
written in the past decade, for the de-
location of those who seek their amuse
ment in the theatre. In fact it has
been conceded that ''The Pay Train"
is entitled to first place in the affections
of amusement seekers, as no one of the
others has so much of merit to COM
mend it to their attention. Not only
does this play bristle with thrilling
scenes and situations, but it is bubbling
over with comedy and its several char
acters are interpreted by the most
clever of actors. 1t is in other words, a
railroad drama par excellence, and its
appearancein this city will be welcomed
by the many admirers of plays OF
this particular class. AT Grand opera
house, Friday evening, Nov. %.
