TALKED OF
FREIGHT
QUESTION
Committee on Railroads viii
Not Limit the Union Railroad
to the City.

The committee on railroads Of the city
council. together with Mr.. Marsden J..
Perry. General Manager Potter OF the
Union Railroad company. and Attorney
Buckland of the Consolidated railroad,
met last evening. and the bin for an or
dinance granting to the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad the right
70 maintain and operate rails I'm India
street was discussed
The main contention between the two
roads was closely considered. and Mr..
Buckland suggested some changes in re-
gard 90 the phraseology which met with
no opposition, and then the question of
limiting the Union Railroad company to
hauling cars within the city limits was
taken up and discussed at considerable
length.
Mr.. Buckland said he felt obliged TO in
sist that the words within the city of
Providence" be added TO this sentence In
section 10:
And said New York. New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company shall
promptly and at all reasonable times de-
liver 10 and receive from said Union
Railroad company at said points OF con-
nection all freight cars and their con-
tents transported 10 or TO be transported
from said points OF connection over said
Union Railroad compsnys lines"
Mr.. Perry insisted that IL the words
were inserted I'm the ordinance the New
Haven road could put a prohibitive tariff
on freight brought in from over the city
line.
After the hearing the committee de-
cided that IL would be for the best inter-
ests of the people OF Providence not to
limit the operators OF the Union Railroad
company to carrying freight within the
city OF Providence to the point OF con-
nection on India street.
IL decided TO leave the matter open,
and an ordinance substantially like the
one printed in these columns a few days
ago will be reported to the city council
at its next meeting, and will undoubtedly
meet with the approval OF that body.

RICE CULTURE.
The experiments that have Eeen go

that the culture of rice can be made
profitable in that section. In Wharton
and other counties the experiments
have proven a great success and many
farmers and several Syndicates VIII
plant great fields of the grain next
season.
MONUMENT TO DENTON.
The citizens of Denton have begun
a movement for the erection OF a
monument to the memory of the great
statesman John b. Denton. This mas
brought up the question as TO where
he was buried which has opened a hve-

was killed by Indians in 1912 and II
was thought that his remains were
buried near Denton but this is dis

IRRIGATION SCHEME.
A dispatch from Clayton says: An
eastern syndicate is being organized
for the purpose of dammins Apache
canon near Clayton. This canon and
its wide network of tributary arroyos
guIches and draws comprise the drain
age of the eastern slopes of
the Sierra Grande mountains. and a
dam thrown across the canol at the
proposed point would form a lake
twenty miles long. with an average
width of one-quarter of a nile and
an average depth of 40 feet. This lake
and its drainage feeders wouli provide
water for the irrigation Of 100. 900
acres of land and would. also. place
abundant and permanent water upon
a large and excellently erased and
sheltered stock range
At the point of the proposed dam
construction the canon is bat $50 feet
in width. the dam itself to be Of solid
masonry thirty feet thick and forty
feet high. with an estimated cost of
500, 900. The lands to be irrigated are
practically in one body and lie Just
southeast of Clayton. They have an
average soil depth of twenty feet, and
their fertility assures profuse opp
the favorable seasons of the region
assuring also a great variety in har-
vest schedule. The stock range thus
fully utilized will support scores of
thousands of cattle and sheep.

HOW DUELING WAS STOPPED.
The Arrival of a Man Who Could
Shoot Made the Pastime
Unpopular.

Years ago in western frontier town,
says the New York Tribune, a traveller,
footsore and weary, arrived one after
noon and made his way down one
street of the burg. He was suddenly
startled by the sounds of shots and,
looking up, discovered four men shoot
ing at one another. The men were
standing at the four corners of an i'm
aginary square and each shooting at
the man catacorner to him. Being in
what he supposed safe position, he
paused to watch the outcome of the
fray, when bullet, going wide of it's
intended mark, cut by his ear. That
aroused his wrath, and, drawing his
pistol, he dropped him. Another bull
let flying wide from it's mark, but near
to the stranger, caused him to lay out
one of the other pair, and the two re-
naming men sought safety in fight.
In that particular town duels had
been previously comparatively harm
less amusements, owing to the poor
craftsmanship of the opponents, but
the man who could shoot had arrived.
and the Inhabitants, although they
turned out to greet him in a body and
grant him the freedom of the city, did
SO in manifest awe and trepidation.
Whenever he told the story after
ward he used to wind up'impressively
by saying: "And, boys, in that town
after that they went around me as if
/ had been swamp"

Twenty-Five Clowns

Big as Is the Adam Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers menagerie, circus and
hippodrome consolidation, it is exceed
ingly well balanced in the way of en-
tertainment suited to all . requirements
and tastes. While there is more than
enough to widen the eyes and to make
the nerves Jingle, the developement of
the risible muscles has not been over
looked or sighted. and aside from the
amphibious and many wild and domes-
TIC beast comedians, there are full
twenty FIVE of the brightest, funniest
and most versatile clowns that Mr..
James A. Bailey could find in foreign
fields, or our own side of the world
furnish. No other show was ever
equipped with anything like such an
array of madcaps. and the feast of fat
fun they have furnished to enormous
audiences in both Madison Square
Garden and under the mamoth circus
tent has had much to do with the ak
traordinary popularity and snccess q
