pay a practical joke on his wife. Sher-
If Brookshire is full of good nature,
and the love of fun is his predomina
characteristic. To get the laugh on
friend is to him the next best thing IN
rounding up a band of horse thieves.
He is owner of a good-sized ranch, and
while working out in a pasture near his
home some time since came across a
buzzard's nest, in which reposed four
as handsome snow-white eggs as the
eye Of man ever looked upon The dis
coyery of these eggs Immediately set
him to thinking Of little game that
he would play upon his faithful SPOUSE.
Wrapping them up with care he bore
them to his house, intending TO tell
Mrs. Br6okshire that he had been pre-
sented with some uncommonly fine
egs from fancy breed of chickens,
and that it was the proper thing to put

SEVEN MILES OF OLD CARS.
Conyicts in wyoming Breaking Up Worm
Out Railroad Material.

Seven miles of condemnation IS a
long drawn-oat affair even for the
west BIT it stands as western
growth near the state penitentlary at
Laramie, Wyo. where eonvicts are
daily engaged in making it an ever
iessening fact. Fer many months the
inspectors of the Union Pacific railroad
have serutinized tie thousands of
freight ears that handle the overland
traffic. When a debilitated car of low
capacity or uneGuipped with air brakes
ratified past it was branded as con
demned, and, if empty. was shunted
off on the side track buils to be last
refuge for the doomed cars. This
process continued for months till the
cars, averaging thirty feet in length,
reached a total length Of seven miles
This distance was ascertained by local
statisticians, who, in the interests of
railroad history, pedaled their biey-
cles along the line and measured il
with their cyclometers. These cars are
humpbacked swaybacked and comfort
ed in every conceivable way, but they
still hold themselves erect with kind
Of melancholy dignity. Thay have had
careers varying fron eight to twelve
years. and since their building a score
Of changes have taken place in car
construction Their capacity is often
as low as 1900 pounds, whereas the
modern car is from 10000 to 60, 600
pounds capacity. The brake mechan-
ism for the freight car has come to
be as complicated as was that of the
passenger car thirty years ago, and
inventions applying to doors. ventila-

There can be very little doubt that

primitive form was evidently a small
