More S, P. improvements.

The half has not been told of con-
templated improvements on the South
ern Pacific's line in Nevada, says the
Salt Lake Tribune. In addition to the
much talked of lake cutoff, many line
changes will be made east of Lucin
For instance, the grades over the
Pequop mountains between Wells and
Lucin are to be reduced to per cent
The line between Wells and Wads-
worth is to be rectified and straighten-
ed and the grades taken out between
these points. so that the ruling grade
will in no case exceed per cent.
Similar improvements will be made
between Wadsworth AID Reno The
result will be that the whole road from
the base of the Sierras to the Salt
Lake basin, will be reduced to low
grade line. and operating officials real
ize what that means-much heavier
trainloads and much cheaper opera
ton. Pretty soon every helper engine
on the districts included will be thrown
out of job.-Silver State.

''Cockatoes are handsome birds and
are seldom seen except in Geological
Gardens, those shown by Prof. Monta-
que are beautiful specimens of their
kind and their performances are GER
tainly wonderful, and must entail a
great stock of patience to train them
to such perfection. Some OF them are
good takers too, but that is not in
cluded in the performance, although
one comical old fellow swears at the
Prof every time he is put through his
tricks. We advise everyone to see
these birds.''
The performance will be given Fri.
day and Saturday evenings and mat.
ines Saturday afternoon at o'clock
Admission is only Is cents for adults
