Through Line.

The Burlington has recently concluded
satisfactory arrangements with the Sho-
shone and ArapAhoe Indians in Wyoming
for right-of way across their reserva-
ton, and as soon as the government ap-
proves the deal will begin TO set stakes.
This line has so many surveying parties
In the field that its intentions are so mys-
ferrous as TO be- almost beyond solution.
1t Is said that Thermopons will be one
OF the principal stations, and there is a
boom as a result OF this expectation. The
road has already made application for a
permit to erect a sanitarium there at q
cost Of &i5o,0o. One party OF surveyors
ia I'm the Big Horn BASIN and Il Is be.
lieved that the old project OF seeking a
rfght-of-way through the Yellowstone park
will re revived.
Some men acquainted with the situation
In Wyoming express the opinion that the
burlington has intentions OF making a
through limo 10 the Coast. and will make
Seattle the terminus. In view OF the de.
veopments the road has made and hints
a. To future movements. II II considered

Chicago A. c. c. in Camp.


The Associated Cycling Clubs of Chi
cago has gone into camp on the bluff
shore of Lake Michigan at Winnetka,
twenty odd miles north of the Windy
City. The encampment consists Of a
score of tents, each belonging to one
of the cycling clubs claiming member
ship in the association, and is a re-
vival Of the Camp Harrison of 1897,
planned after the annual summer out
ing of the National Cyclists union of
England. The camp opened just re-
Gently with the arrival of ninety mem
bers, whose number is expected to
more than double during the succeed
ing two weeks.
The initiative that brought this
camp into life Is commendable. 1t
smacks of something new and shows a
tendency to get away from the hack
neyed subjects that generally occupy
the attention of the A. C. c. The pro-
gressive, thinking club members who
have at heart the broad interest of all
cyclists rather than the immediate in
long deprecated the narrowness of the
policy and interests OF the association.
1t is high time, they believe, that this
body, which should be representative
OF the cycling interests of the whole
city, began to occupy itself with mat
tiers of public welfare instead of allow
ing its attention to be absorbed in road
and track racing.-Ex.
