California

Every Wednesday and Saturday at
6 p. m. train leaves Chicago over
the famous Santa Fe route, which
makes the run to Southern California
In less than three days. This train is
composed of Pullman palace vestibuled
sleeping cars. buffet smoker and din
ing car Of the most luxurious pattern
ever designed.
Another improvement in the Santa
F'e service is in the time of the weekly
tourist excursions, which now leave
Boston every Thursday at 100 a. M,
and reach California the following
Tuesday. The cost of tickets is lower
and the time faster via these excur-
sions than via any other.
The Santa Fe route is the only line
running entirely over it's own tracks
from Chicago to California, and those
who intend making a trip west will find
it to their advantage to communicate
with S. w. Manning, New England
Agent of this line, at 1872 Washington
street, Boston.

INFERIOR CARP.

Colonel Bright Says the American Fish II
of Very Poor Quality.
Colonel Bright, the sergeant at arms
OF the senate, justly prides himself not
only on his prowess with the rod and
wheel, but on his Judgment of the cpl
curean qualities of fish, and those who
have dined with the colonel bow hum
bly, to his talents
"Carp in Europe and carp in this
country are two very different things" +"
said Colonel Bright recently. "In Eu-
rope they have marine water plants to
eat which give the fish good flavor.
but in this country they become river
soavengers and are not even At to eat.
Colonel Baird, formerly fish commits
sioner, is responsible for stocking the
rivers Of this country with carp.
1T was a pet hobby of his to make
fish SO plentiful that poor people would
never lack for food, and this ne expect
ed to do by the propagation of carp. He
was talking with me one day about it,
and told him black bass were the fish
he wanted to cultivate. He objected,
because he had discovered that it took
ten times as much food to make a
pound Of bass as it did pound of carp.
Agreed, said I. but pound of black
bass is worth whole ton of carp. 80

Iron Bas.
Minnie Brene, . young woman en-
ployed at Willard's hotel, Warrington,
had an almost miraculous escape from
death in the hotel shortly after 8
O'Clock on recent evening. She fell
down the freight elevator shaft from
the second story to the basement, q dis
tance Of over 30 feet, striking ON the
iron CROSS bars of the car.
The elevator is in the rear part of the
building and is unlighted. The door Of
the shaft on each floor open out of cor
ridors directly adjoining the doors to a
series of toilet rooms, and in the dim
light one door can easily be mistaken
for the other. The girl had left the
kitchen only few moments before she
fell and was supposed to have gone to
her room to dress. By mistake she
opened the door leading into the eleva-
tor shaft instead and stepped in.
The swiftness Of the fall and the
shock deprived her of her senses, and
she made no outcry.
When the girl was examined at the
hospital, it was found that the crossbar
on which she had fallen had cut cash
ON the inside of the left thigh clear to
the bone. The flesh was terribly bruised
and laoerated.
There were no injuries on any other
part of her body, and she was sent to q
ward. Her wound will be very painful
for some time, but the physicians do not
anticipate any serious consequences. -

neck became limp and powerless, SO that
she could not raise her head or even
