is ever given to the L, zoe miles of irriga-
cation canals that have been constructed,
and the ., o00,0 900 acres Of land which have
thus far been made productive. Yet, out
out Of 81 exhibits from Colorado at the
worlds fair eighty one special premiums
were awarded, covering all kinds of fruit
and produce. The wheat exhibit attracted
wide attention, and twenty-five awards
were given it alone, the largest number
received by any one state in the Union
Tho fruit industry has reached 81, 900 600 a

culture is profitable industry. The min

other states in the Union in the output of

order, is a splendid mimic, and can

Not long ago the young man wanted
without delay some money to pay 8
bill. and he knew that his father
would treat a request for the same
with cold contempt. Waiting till he
knew that his father would be away,
went to the telephone call room and
rang up the Office. calling for the
cashier. The cashier was forthcoming
and when he was at the other end the
young man initiated his sires voice.

would fulfill the commands. Not long
after the son called at the office and
demanded f20. He was refused by the
conscientious cashier, and. apparently
in anger the young man contented
himself with the FLO. When the old
man reached the Office there was a

Gen. A. S. Kimball, Depot Quarter
master of the U. S. Army. in New
York city, has sent to Lyman Nc
Carly, Assistant General Passenger
Agent Of the Baltimore G Ohio Rail-
road in New York, a letter Of thanks
for the prompt movement of troops
that were ticketed over the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad during the past year.
He says that many of these movements
were made on short notice and his de-
partment had too frequently to rely
upon insufficient and sometimes mac
curate data. He realized that under
such circumstances the company was
placed in an embarrassing position and
the extraordinary efforts made by the
line to give satisfaction in every re-
spect merited and received his fullest
appreciation.

Automobiles In Paris.

On Easter Sunday, this year, the
hrst installment of automobile cabs
was placed at the disposal Of the Pa
risian public. As soon as they issued
from the depot at Aubervilliers they
We're most eagerly sought after, and
gave most satisfactory results. The
number OF these vehicles is daily in
creased, and the Compagnie Generate
des Voitures expects, after a months
trial, to be in a position to Judge OF
the convenience or drawbacks Of the
present type of cabs. These vehicles
are provided with accumulators en-
aiding them to travel from 60 to $50
kilometers (97 to 40 miles,, without
recharging the batteries.
The tariff varies according to the
number of persons. For one or two
passengers the ordinary cab fare is
applied, viz: 1.50 or 2 francs per hour;
Tor three persons, francs the Jour-
ney, and four persons, $50 francs.
The eventual adoption of automo-
biles for general use in Paris, as well
as throughout France, seems to be a
foregone conclusion; but there is no
doubt that the tremendous speed at
which private individuals with their
motor tricycles and other experimental
automobiles dash about the streets
has tendency to discourage the adop-
ton Of automobiles by those who
would otherwise make purchases. By
daily observation in Paris, it is easy
to see that Improvements are con-
stantly being made in doing away with
the Objectionable odors, excessive vi
bration and noise.
