TUNNEL NEARLY DONE,
Great Northern Bore Through the Cas-
easles Sooal Ready for Use.

Within two weeks it is expected the
Great Northern tunnel in the Cascades
will pierce through the mountain and
the workmen now extending the great
bore in from each end will meet. The
workmen at each end can hear plainly
through the wall of dividing rock the
noise of the blasts and the drills at the
other side. The completion of the tun-
mel will mark the beginning of new
epoch in transcontinental railroading
It's completion will be followed by the
abandonment of the famous switch back
by which the trains now climb over the
great hill. The use of the tunnel will
save much time to both freight and pas
senger trains and will greatly reduce the
cost of operation of the Cascade division
of the road.
The tunnel, derided as Hills folly
when the Great Northern president first
broached the plan to capitalists in the
east, is now the object of wonderment by
the engineering world. Almost the en-
tire expense has been met from the
revenues of the road and this has caused
the energetic president to be looked
upon as still shrewder man in business
affairs.
1t was less than ten years ago-in 189:
to be specifc-that James J. Hill an
nounced his intention to tunnel the Cas-
cades and abandon the use of the sever
switch backs in use by the Great North
ern. Engineers from all over the coun
try went up into the mountains ant
made surveys of the land. Later the,

Hint to Letter yYriters.

The practice Of writing private let
ters from the first to the third page Of
a letter sheet and then going back to
the second page is Il matter Of taste,
but it will not do to follow that course
Of procedure in writing legal docu-
ments.
The New York courts have disallow-
ed the provisions of n will written in
this way. The testator wrote the will
on three sides Of q folded paper, COM
manc.lg on the first page and continu-
ing on the third page, at tie top Of
which was written second 'l~o," and
completing and signing the ius rument
on a page marked third page which,
in fact was the second page Of the
sheet
The court held that the viii was not
signed at the physical end, rs required
by the statute. The law does not con-
template going backward in order to
get forward, and the will WAS refused
probate. The New York court of ap-
peals sustained the decision throwing
out this form Of will.-Boston Herald.

The sultnn's narbarous capital.

European ladies constantly run away
with the idea that Coustantinople is 4
civilized town and act accordingly.
Then they are aStonishcd when some
thing disagrccable happens. and con
tinually one hears of ladies' being hus-
tied. pinchcd or kissed by Turkish sol
diers. 1t must he remembered that the
soldiers are recruited from the widest
tribes in Asia Minor, where woman Is
considered an inferior creature, who
must give way to man, besides being
trained TO avoid him on all possible oc-
casions
One can easily imagine that such Il
soldier is astonished to see a European
lady unveiled, boldly expecting him to
give way to her or ut any rate not
avoiding him. and he naturally takes it
to be an advance on her part. Ladies
have often told me they have been
pushed by soldiers into the gutter, and
| have nearly always found that it IS
simply as l have explained, that nei-
ther makes way for the other, with the
result that the lady, being the weaker,
comes to grief.-London Telegraph.

A good story is told about how two
nrospector5 had sailed mine IN the
Galena district in order TO rob a eou-
nile of rich widows. which resulted IN
the aforesaid widows becoming much
Weather
The prospectors had spent their last
cent in digging q hole in the ground to
the extent of 60 feet without striking
anything but yellow clay. But one OF
them knew Of two rich widows who
were Just spelling to have their money
SINK In a mine. Accordingly they
spent two nights in sailing their mine.
They hadn't sufficient money to buy
some paying dirt. but they stole this
from q nelghboring mine and hauled
lot of it over to dump into their mine.
When several tons of this paying dirt
had accumulated in the bottom OF their
mine. the widows were sent for, and
while one was talking about the IN
creasing value Of the district the other
was dumping out all kinds Of lead and
zinc ore before their astonished eyes.
The widows bought a half interest in
that hole in the ground for $500. The
next day there was no more ore in the
shaft. and the fellows declared they
would dig no longer. Then the widows
bought the other half interest ut a total
cost Of $1,000, and the men liked out
for Missouri, laughing in their sleeves.
But the women, blindly believing that
there must lie more ore, continued
with the digging and at depth of ten
additional feet struck the richest vein
of the whole belt, realizing $4,000 in
less than one years time.-Kansas City

Admiralty weak ON Geography.


During the Bocr war of 1880 the adj
miralty was hopelesSly ignorant of the
geography Of South Africa.
The admiral in charge Of the fleet at
Cape Town received strict orders that
he was not on any account to lombard
the town OF Potchefstroom. Now, as
Potchefstroom is 4 good many hun
dred miles from the seacoast and lies
on the Moot river which is barely 200
yards across and dry for three parts
Of the year, this order was superiiu-
Gus.
During the same period the fleet was
at Port Elizabeth, and the admiral
headed dispatches to the admiralty
from that seaport By the next mail
he again sent dispatches, but happened
to head them Algoa bay.
The admiralty cabled out asking him
what business he had to change the
location of the fleet without instruc-
tons. sublimcly ignorant of the fact
that Port Elizabeth and Mgoa bay are
one and the same place.
BY the way, the names Algoa bay
and Deiagoa bay are derived from the
outward and homeward voyages Of the
old East Indiamen who, on their Yoy-
ages to Goa. in India, were wont to
call at Port Elizabeth on the outward
voyage and at Lourcnco Marques on
the homcward voyage. Hence the
names Algoa Go Goa and Delagoa
