Railroad Without Cars,

In the forest Of the Bridal Veil Lum-
bering company, at Bridal Veil, Ore,
not far from the Dalles, there is a rail-
road which does business without cars.
An article in the Northwestern Lumber
man, describing the work of this COM
pany, has a picture Of 4 train" on the
road, which consists of an ordinary To-
connective, such as are common on log
ging roads, and a string of logs, each
log being as largo in diameter as the
boiler Of an engine, or larger. Boards
are nailed to the sleepers between the
rails, and on these the logs slide. EX-
cept on descending grades, the boards
are creased, and the train moves At
good speed. Where the road is level or
slightly ascending. the engine pulls the
logs, and where ii is descending K holds
them back. At thu mills Of this COM
pany the manufactured lumber, regard
less Of SIZE, is u into a tlumc. and his
is carried about two miles 70 the plan
ing mill and shipping yard, the fluma
descending in that distance about 1900
feet.

Patriotic Pigeon.

Many instances are on record OF
t~cnacity Of memory ON the part of car.
rier pigeons. who are said never to for
get their first cots. None of these in
stances are more remarkable, probably,
than that recorded of one of the birds
employed to carry messages into Paris
during the siege. These birds, domiciled
in Paris. were taken by balloons, and.
after being laden with tidings from
without, were liberated and made their
way back to their homes.
One day a pigeon from one of these
balloons was captured by II German
soldier of the b~esieging army. He
gave it to his officer who presented it
in turn to his commander, Prince
Frederick Charles. The prince sent il
as a gift to his mother in Germany, who
happened to be somewhat of u pigeon
fancier.
The princess, delighted with the gift,
placed the captive in a great dovecote,
where it was surrounded with every
luxury that the most eXacting bird
could ask for but whence it could not
escape.
Here the French pigeon lived, APP
parently happy enough, for four long
years. But it did not forget its father
land.
One day a door of the great dovecoto
was left carelessly open. The French
pigeon flew out. 1t was never seen
again by its German hosts, but ten
days later it was beating its wings
against the doors of its old court in the
Boulevard dc Clichy, Paris. 1t was
recognized by its old keeper and re-
ceived the welcome due to n patriot re.

SANTA FE WINS.
"ReaI Estate" Does Not Mean a Rail.
MnN'S

Oskaloosa, Kan, Dee. 3O.-In the dis.
trict court Of Jefferson county yester-
day Judge Meyer refused the petition OF
the state Of Kansas against the Atchi-
son, Topeka and santa Fe Railway
company to forfeit and sell the property
Of the railroad. The previous orders APP
pointing a receiver and granting injunc-
tions in aid thereof, the judge an.
nounced, would be set aside. The opin.
ion holds that the provisions of chapter
3, session laws of 1891, relating to aliens,
under which the action was brought, are
not applicable to railroads. The judge
says: 1T is only necessary to express
an opinion on one question argued be.
fore this court. That is the pivotal
point in the case. 1t is: Does chapter
3 of the session laws OF 1891 apply to
property necessarily used in the operat-
ing Of a railroad?" The statute Is then
cited and the opinion continues:
THE great weight Of judicial author
ity in this country is that the property
of a railroad company necessary for tho
operation Of its railroad cannot be
seized and SOLD in parcels under an exc
cution."

The Rest Roofing Material.

The problem of roofing is one that has
long received the attention Of builders
and property wnc generally. To find
a material that would resist the action
Of the elements, prove impervious to the
action Of gases SO often generated In
manufacturing Establishments, II
that could he relied upon under the
most trying conditions, has received
much attention from ambitious invent
oIs. From the matched roofs of the
early settlers the evolution slowly pro
crossed through various stages Of shin
giles, tin, tar and iron; all of which have
been found wanting in many respects.
Today, after long experimenting, II Is
conceded that the only roofing material
meeting all the requirements Of The per-
feet roof is Fay's Manila Roofing. This
material looks and feels like leather,
will not rust on Corrodc, is impervlOus 10
the action Of gases, and Is absolutely
waterproof. 1t will outwear tho roof Of
tin OIL iron, and in every way is by far
the most economical. 1t also forms a
durable substituta for plaster on walls,
IN is largely used for this purpose.
Everyone who Is Interested In roofing,
on a large or small scale, can secure
samples of this material by addressing

The Rivers La the Atlantic

"N1lult mdSdHllS'
Across the Atlantic ocean from the
Gulf Of Guinea to Cape st. Rogue moves
a great body Of water--the main equa-
tor.al current-which can be considered
the motive power, or handspring, of the
whole Atlantic current system, as Ii OBJ
tains its motion directly from the ever
eXacting push of the trade winds. At
Cape st. Rogue this o current splits
into two parts, n turning north, the
other south. The northern part con-

up the northern coast of South America

From here it travels northeast. fol-
lowing the trend OF the coast line, until,
off Cape Hatteras, 1t splits n three
divisions, one OF which, the western
most, keeps on to lose it's warmth and
life in Batin's bay. Another impinges
on tho Hebridss. and is no more recog-
niZable as a current; and the third, the
eastern n largest part OF the undi-
vided stream, makes a wide sweep TO
the east and south, inclosing the Azores
and the dead water called the Sargasso
sea, then, as the African current, runs
down the coast until, just below the
Canary isles. Ii merges into the lesser
equatorial current, which, parallel to
the parent stream, N separated from

Y l.,

Mrs. Presty had net very seriously exag-
gerated the truth, when she described her
much-indulged granddaughter as "a child
who had never been accustomed to wait for
anything since the day when she was born"
GOvemesseS In general would have found
it no easy matter to produce a favorable i'm
preston on Kitty, and to exert the necessary
authority in instructing her, at the same
time, Spollt children (whateyer moralists
may say to the contrary are companionable
and atfectionate children, for the most part
except when they encounter the unfortunate
persons employed to introduce them to use
full knowledge. MI. and Mrs. Linley guilt
ly conscious of having been too fond of their
only child to subject her to any sort Of dis
cipline) were not very willing to contemplate
the prospect before Miss Wcsterield on her
first establishment in the school-room. To
their surprise and relief there proved to be
no cause for anxiety after all. Without
making an attempt to assert her authority,
the new gOyerness succeeded nevertheless
when older and wiser women would have
failed.
The secret Of Sydney's triumph over adj
verse circumstances lay hidden in Sydney
herself.
Everything in the ordinary routine of life
at Mount Moryen was a source Of delight
and surprise to the unfortunate creature who
had passed through six years Of cruelty, in
suit, and privation at her aunt's school.

action, she saw pleasant faces and heard

reproved her. She rested, out of breath,
while the stronger child was ready TO run OH

was out of breath. ''Sing, Sy~dney-sing!'
Alas for Sydney! She had not sung since
those happiest days of her childhood, when
her good father had told her fairy stories and
taught her songs. They were all forgotten
now. 81 can't sing, Kitty; / can't sing"
