THAT CUTOFF.

Salt Lake Tribune: Speaking OF I'm
ion Pacific improvements yesterday
General Agent F. B. Choate stated that
surveys of the proposed change over
Sherman hill had been completed. but
no announcement has been made as to
when the change will be made. The
question is an interesting one locally
and has been frequently referred to in
the columns of the Tribune. The new
location is on the line between Chey-
enne and Laramie. The new line does
not reduce the distance to any great
extent, but it reduces the grade from
100 feet to 60 feet. The new line be-
gins three miles south Of Dale creek
and runs four miles south of Sherman,
doing away with the Dale creek bridge
and Sherman summit. Should it be
adopted it would save time and great
expense.

Last evening. says the Cheyenne Tri-

fourth infantry, attempted to set fire to
Maggie Fly's place in the West End. but
was prevented from doing so by one of
the inmates, who put the soldier to
flight by taking a couple of shots at him
with a revolver. Mudd was pretty we'll
intoxicated and picked a quarrel with
one Of the inmates. The scrap came to
an end by Mudd throwing a lamp at the

ever. and no damage was done. He
then picked up the lamp. the chimney
of which had been broken, and attempt

and blazed away at the colored soldier.
Two shots were fired and Mudd beat a
hasty retreat. The matter was report

Der of the Wyoming battalion in Ma
Mia. writes to his friends that the west
ern men who are familiar with mining
matters are convinced that the island
Of Luzon is very rich in precious met
ais.
He saw and handled four sacks of
nuggets brought in from placer mines
which were worth $40, 1000. The natives
show pieces Of quartz rich in free gold.
The men are anxious to get permission
to prospect, but it has not been con-
sidered safe to allow them to go into
the interior.
Copper is evidently plentiful on the
island, as many Of the utensils used
by the inhabitants are made of the
native metal.

JUST WHERE 1T IS WANTED.

Admiral Cervera's fleet, bottled
in Santiago, appears to be just
where our government wants it.
The exigencies of war do not
seem now to require that the fleet
should be destroyed or that its
sailors should be killed. 1t is
sufficient for the present, at least,
that their usefulness to Spain be
rendered nothing. And surely no
armed force was ever more out OF
the combat than Cervera's fleet
appears to be.
1t is not conceivable that the
Spanish admiral will be moved to
take the offensive against Schley's
strong feet for the sake of any
picturesque, but wholly ineffective,
heroism. If he keeps quiet he is
likely to be lei alone, unless the
conduct OF the war by our govern
ment seems to demand his destruc-
ton. Our army OF invasion is
ready, and we have ships enough
at liberty to give it all the neces-
sary support so that Schley may
continue to stand guard at the
mouth of the harbor channel like
cat at a mouse hole. If the
Spaniards keep cool and do not
engage in any frivolous attempt to
send their torpedo boats against
the squadron or fire on Old Glory
from the forts, they are likely to
save their ships and their skins
until, with the close of operations,
their fleet is surrendered with the
harbor without any unnecessary
sacrifice of life.

Children love these bright warm days.

Moxie.
The little people drink Moxie because they
like the way 1t tasies and they realize that it

however. how much good 1t Is doing them.
Their fathers and mothers realize this, and II
they ore as interested as they should be in

Moxio is really aud truly q nerve food and

Moxie feeds, strengthens and gives vigor

Remember Moxie Is the most harmless of

PRIDE OF THE LITTLE FINGER.
1t Can Point Back to Your Grand
fathers Station In Life.

''The fact that the hand looks shaplier and
more graceful when tho middle and third
fingers are slightly curved In and away from
the index and little finger is shown by the
models in the glove-store windows, and
while it Is affectation to hold the hands in
such position, yet this exercise, TO make the
pose natural, should be practised," writes
Katharine Eggleston Junkermnn in the
course Of an article on "Physicsl Culture for
Girls" in the June Woman's Aome Compan-
ion, which discusses how to secure pretty
hands and retain . natural grace of motion.
''Some one has said somewhere that the
number OF cultured generations back Of an
individual may be Judged by the degree Of
curve in the little finger. Observation will
prove this more or less true. When one sees q
person holding o glass or cup with the little
finger thrust out and curved until IL re-
sembles n hook little investigation will al
most invariably show that the desire for cul-
ture has only just awakened In that particu-
lar family, and In its newness is somewhat
overstepping the mark. Affectation is sign
OF lack OF breeding
"some OF the old painters understood
hands to perfection. Long rounded bands,
with lightly curved fingers and gently bent
wrists, are characteristic of the women whose
beauty they have mado memorable. some
