UNION PACIFIC SCHEME.
Offers Inducements For Scientists to

Cheyenne, Wyo., March 31.-The
Union Pacific railroad has in prepara-
ton a circular letter of. invitation,
which is unique in. the history of rail-
reading, and which will give that road
wide and well-earned advertisement,
and at the same time promote the in
terest of science and largely increase
the interest of students of geology, pa
leontology and mineralogy in Wyoming
and her extraordinary fields of gigantic
fossil remains. The company will ex-
tend to upwards of 300 colleges and
universities of the United States a cor
dial invitation to send an expert geolo-
gist or poleontologist, with a corps of
assistants, to Wyoming the coming
summer The invitations will offer, in
the interest of science, free transport
tatiOn from Chicago on the east and
San Francisco on the west to Laramie,
Wyo., and return for all the members
of such properly authenticated parties,
the transportation being good during
the summer months. There is no doubt
whatever that the invitation will be
largely accepted and that a more ex-
tended knowledge of the wonderful fos-
sill beds of this state viii be the result,
and that many mesums will be greatly
enriched by the collections made. Bot
anists, entomOlogists and ornitholo-

PEACE CONGRESS DELEGATES.
Men Who Have Been Suggested For
Apnointment.

Washington. March SO-The president
has under consideration the naming of
delegates to the czar's disarmament
congress, which is to be held at The
Hague, beginning May Is next.
There has been little discussion in
official quarters of individual names,
The selection of Sir Julian Pauncefote
as one Of the British delegates, largely
berause of his service in negotiating
the Olney -Pauncefote treaty, has led
to the mention of MIR. Olney's name as
a possible American delegate. Another
mentioned is that of John Rassett
Moore. assistant secretary of state un-
der Judge Day, and one of the moving
figures in the recent peace negotiations
with Spain. Mr.. Moores name comes
up through his literary contributions
to the subject of disarmament. He has
recently completed treatise on arli-
tration, comprising several volumeS
published by the government, which IS
said to be the most exhaustive treat
ment of the subject ever attempted.
The understanding also is that it
would be agreeable to the friends of
Archbishop Ireland if that eminent
Catholic prelate We're appointed.

The Cause Of Kip1ing,s Popularity.


1t has been generally suggested that
the workingman's enthusiasm for Kip
ling is due 70 the omniscience of this
writer of 81 years; that the soldier re-
veres him for his knowledge of SOL
dier's work, pleasures and woes; that
the railroad man swears by him be-
cause he understands so well how an
engine is built; that the sailor and the
fisherman, the public school boy, the
city clerk, the mechanic, find the fas-
cination in his perfect acquaintance
with their life. No doubt this clinches
the charm, but certainly a broader
principle undeFlies the popularity which
the poet and fictionist mas won with the
masses. This is that he appeals to the
emotional side of his readers as we'll as
to the intellectual man. A man like
Matthew Arnold, be he never so great,
finds himself, perhaps with some ap-
prevail, cut off from all but those read

POISON BOTTLE MONOPOLY.
Clever Scheme to Hold Up the Drug
Trade

Albany, y. Y, March Ex-Governor
Roosevelt has been asked to veto the
bin now in his hands providing that no
druggists can legally sell a medical
preparation containing poison unless it
be contained in a box or bottle, octa-
gonal in shape, with serrated edges
and having impressed on ii the emblem
of a skull and cross bones. A viola
ton Of the act is made a misdemeanor.
The passage Of this bill has caused
CONSERVATION in the drug trade 1t is
said to be part of a scheme to require
all the druggists in the state to buy a
medicine bottle, the design of which
has been patented by residents of this
state.
This medicine bottle in design exactly
fits the language Of the act. No one
else can make it. so that the company
possessing the patent will have a prof
liable monopoly if the bill becomes a
law.
Ii is understood that the drug trade
is fighting similar bills to be introduced
in other legislatures.
