COTTONWOOD ROUTE
CHIEF ONE.
Northern Pacific Will Make It The
Principal Southern Feeder,

George Erb returned yesterday
from secret mission to the far in
terror, says the Lewiston Teller. He
refused to tell any boby that he had
been sent as an advance agent of the
O. r. & N. to select route over the
Bitter Root range, by which the
Oregon road was to form junction
with the c., B. & @. The Judge
would not, for any consideration,
give away the secrets that the com
pany which sent him cares what
progress the Northern is making
towards locatin G a line up Cotton
wood creek to Camas Prairie. He
would leave the Northorn people to
infer that the 0. r. & N. does not
care wether the Northern Pacific
adopts the Lapwai spur or the Cot
| tonwood route to the Prarie; but it
| is known just the same that they do
care and that this company has
spies in the field for this purpose. OF
course Judge Erb had nothing to do
with this business except to select
route across the Bitter Root. The
word was brought in. however, from
/ all quarters this week that the Nor
thern Pacific had called in allthe ex-
ploring parties, and that they were
| giving all their attention to the
main cut off idea. The Lapwai spur
scheme is reported the one adhered
to now by the Northern Pacific
people are trying to make the pub liz
and the other company belieye that
they are to hold to the Lapwai spul
extension idea, but the fact is this
Ispur is not to be extended but tht
Cottonwood route is the principa
feeder to the south for that road.

The vast UnexDlored Regions of the

Above us there extends a vast I'M
explored space far more interesting
from a scientific point Of view than the
icy regions around the north pole. No
one can reach the limits Of the upper
regions of the air and live, unless he
carries with him air to breathe and
fuel to warm him, for at the paltry dis
lance of ten miles above the earth the,
air is too thin to support respiration,
and the thermometer would register
far below zero. 1t would be q region

earth If it should rise to such a height.
A person in a balloon could not hear
a person in a neighboring balloon

the propagation of sound waves.
There would. however, still be a me-

nm CHINA.
LiabIs 20 ~ Killed At Any Time BY
the Nativsa


A railway engineers life In China,
for instance. is a truly adventurous
one, writes a traveller from Tientsin.
Besides natural and routine difficulties
to be met with in all countries, he has
TO cope with mandarin intrigues, viii
lage opposition, mutinous railway cool
les, turbulent soldiery, and, besids5
professional skill. he therefore needs
in some measure the qualities Of a
diplomatist. soldier, linguist, and phil
osopher. Mr.. Cox, who was recently
assaulted near Pekin, has had many
similar experiences during the dozen
years he has been railroad building In
the Chill province, and has only ex-
tricated himself by dint Of tact. pluck
and good hUmor. He has for years
practically carried his life in his hand.
In 1890, for example, during floods. a
mob, led by the soldierly Lutai, a mil
itary camp near Tientsin, cut the rail
way -embankment and destroyed seven
miles OF line, their officers encourag-
ing them, and the enlightened %vicerOy,
Ii Hung Chang, in his yamen, a few
miles off, "layin' low and sayin' nuf
nm" The cause alleged was that the
embankment prevented the food water
from running of, which, as there were
frequent outlets, was utter nonsense.
Previous to that attempts had been
made to wreck trains and the lives OF
the foreign employees we're constantly
threatened. The life, too, Of the foreign
guard on a train is not always r happy
one. Mandarins' servants without
tickets take possession Of a frst-class
carriage, eat, drink and sleep in it..
Perhaps they light a pan Of charcoal
to warm themselves II the weather is
cold. Charcoal has certain asphyxiat-
ing effects; the other passengers com
plain, and the servants have to be
elected. Too much violence might
lead to a general attack on foreigners
and another Tientsln massacre, while
too little would not be effective. The
unhappy guard has to follow the
happy" mean between a good, hard
push and a mild knock-doWn blow.
One DAY a country gentleman, on MS
first ride in a train, seeing his house
midway between the two stations fly
ing past, deliberately opened the door
and stepped out into space. At the pace
the train was going a European would
certainly have been killed; but the
supple celestial, after a prolonged Sc
ries Of somersaults. was seen to pick
himself and bundle up, dust his
clothes, and set of home across the
fields, much pleased with his short
cut and the convenience Of the fire
wheel carriage" An unfortunate rail-
way %coolie, equally ignorant OF the
laws of mechanics, did not get off so
well. Seeing two trucks coming at a
snail's pace down a siding, he placed
his foot on the rail to stop them. To
his establishment, 1t was cut off, and
he learned, like S%tevenson's COW, that
momentum is made up of mass as well
as velocity.
