Reports from railroad sources state
that now as the Southern Pacific has
acquired the Sonora road. its proposed
extension to the coast from Durango will
not be built. Such a line would be very
costly on account of the immense
amount OF rock cutting to be done. The
descent to the west coast is very steep
and in many places preciDitous.

Jack Boyle heard noise at his door
the other night which he took to be
burglars breaking in the door. Jack
never waited for them to enter, but
seized a shot gun and sent load OF
buck-shot crashing through the door
The burglars of course never entered
neither did Jack go to see where they
were. But next morning when he
opened the door, horror of horrors!
He found he had killed Moritz Beim'
er's old tom-cat. Burglars had bet
ter keep shy of Jack.
