ed a trooper whose horse had been

A Model Railroad Bulld Inc.

One of the constant attractions to
Jubilee visitors at Salt Lake City was
the handsome new building ON West
Temple street now being erected by
the Oregon Short Line Railroad as a
home for their general offices. The
structure is conceded by all to be the
model railroad building of the West.
To conduct the business of great
road like the Oregon Short Line with
its 1900 miles of tracks requires host
of departments each with it's chief, his
assistants and scores of clerks and ac-
countants. None of these have been
overlooked in this model building.
The structure was erected from plans
drawn by the engineering department
of the road, and each clerk was counted
and a place made for him in the prop
er place, that he might perform his
duties with the least amount of neces-
sarv labor and surrounded by conven-
fences that would conduce to his great
est comfort. Forty large and airy Of
fee rooms are required to house all
these employees.
The busiest and most visited of these
departments is that of passenger traf-
fic presided over by General Passenger
Agent Burnley, who in the four months
since the segregation of the road from
the Union Pacific, has made for him
self reputation that stamps him as
one of the best passenger men in the
country.
The passenger department is making
an enviable record as being unsurpass-
ed by any western road in point of
comfort and quick time. With its
connections the Short Line has recent
ly reduced the time between Denver
and Portland and the Sound about
twelve hours. In view of the heavy ira
vel toward the Klondyke gold fields of
Alaska. reached only from this section
by the Short Line, this improvement
has been doubly appreciated.
The system is to be extended by a
line to the rich Deep Creek country in
Nevada, which will eventually reach
the coast at Los Angeles. Plans have
already been prepared and are now be
ing reviewed by the eastern officers
and directors of the company, and work
will commence very soon.

A story Of John Bright.


The Lord Primate of Ireland writes:
was told by a friend of the great
orator Bright-a name never to be
mentioned without respect-that one
day he was speaking with an old friend
of his school career. He had been at
two schools, in one of which he had
learned great deal that was useful
and necessary for his position in life,
and in the other he had been taught
to love reading, and had been brought
in contact with Millions book, and
this friend say, you seem to think
far more of the second school than of
the first, and l know you learned a
great deal that was useful in the one,
and / should think not nearly so much
in the other. But" said Bright, you
don't know anything about it. In the
first school l learned what helped me
no doubt in my business, but in the
other l was brought into contact with
the eternal spirit of liberty, and that
was the thing that made me whatever
l have been in life"
