AUTOMOBILE STAGE COACHES.
Horseless Carriages to Carry Mail
and Passengers over Mountain
Roads of Idaho.

An automobile stage line will soon
be in operation in Idaho, and if it
stands the test of time at least one
other will be started, says the Chicago
Tribune.
L. A. Readicker, who operates
stage line between Challis and Salmon
City and another between Dubois and
Ellis, recently purchased an automo-
bile in New York and has been eX
perimenting with it. He has en-
ployed it already in carrying mail
and intends to buy others to carry
both mail and passengers if the first
does not break down every now and
then in some lonely spot miles from
where it can be repaired.
The trial runs have been made be-
tween Dubois and Ellis, distance
of $50 miles. The road runs through
sand and dust, over hills and through
the heart of the Salmon River noun
tain. The automobile plowed through
the sand, climbed the hills, and sped
over the level places without a mis-
hap at an average of ten miles an
hour.
The vehicle used for the expert
ments is single-seated and is fitted
below with a frame for carrying
mail. Gasoline furnishes the driving
power.
There are many difficulties to over
come before automobiles can be en-
tirely successful on the mountain
roads. Sharp rocks are apt to pune
ture the pneumatic tires, and it takes
tremendous driving power to get
over some of the roads. Moreover,
there are portions of Idaho in the
mountains which are many miles
from a habitation. If the power
should give out in one of these spots
the pilgrimage of 25 miles or so to
house and the wait of day or days
for relief would be far from cheer
full to the passengers.

THERE MAY BE NEW CAPITAL.
Peking, II Is Thought, Can Never
Again he Residence of Foreign
Ambassadors.

The prediction is already made in
certain highly influential quarters
that none of the civilized powers of
the world will ever again send am
bassadors to Pelsing. The situation
is now far enough advanced to make
it plain that If the Chinese empire is
to maintain its integrity it must be
at the cost of such concessions to
other nations as shall form absolute
guarantees against outrageous and
sudden treachery on the part of the
Chinese government. There are very
few guarantees that China can give
which the rest of the world would
accept as worth anything, but first
among these is the removal of the
capital to a point where the powers
holding diplomatic relations with
China can reach and protect their
representatives readily and effective
ly. They cannot take the chances
again of siege of the legations in the
interior of China.
The essential condition is that the
capital of China shall be within reach
of the naval forces of other nations.
This would be a hard and intolerable
condition to exact of power holding
equality in the international family.
But China is not such a power and
cannot be treated as such. She will
have to accept the position in which
her late eccentricity has placed her
and yield to the demands for security
exacted by those with which she as
sociates.
There ought to be no difficulty in
arranging this transfer of the seat
of government. Nanking, the ancient
capital of the middle Kingdom or
China proper, would be entirely salts
factory. But Peking, which only by
good fortune has been taken by the
allies after a long and arduous mill
tary expedition, and which might not
have been taken at ali if the Chinese
had been prompt in flooding the sur
rounding country, can never again
be the residence and trap Of foreign
ambassadors.

Row BOXERS ARE MADE.
Peculiar Process by Which the Nov
Ice Is Supposed to De Made
Invulnerable.

A correspondent of the Shanghai
Mercury tells how Boxers are made
that is, the mummery and the antics
the novice has to go through before he
is pronounced invulnerable by the
adopts who instruct him. The CORE
spondent, according to an eastern ex-
change, writes:
THE first posture is to face the
southeast, burn incense and make
prostrations. Each one then repeats
an incantation and loudly calls for the
highest grade of spiritual beings, then
the second grade. and finally the third
grade; the person then falls upon the
ground and seems to pass into a swoon.
After remaining in this apparently
unconscious state for time he teach
er or leader strikes the person on the
top of his head, arouses him and puts
a long sword into his hand. Then he
springs to his feet and brandishes the
sword most violently until his strength
seems to be quite exhausted. The
leader again strikes him on the head
and puts him asleep for a time, during
which the spirit is supposed to either
again take possession or him or at least
give him new power, and he again con-
tinues to practice with the sword. This
continued for many days is supposed
to make the man skilled Boxer, whose
body cannot be injured by the guns or
swords of foreigners"

NO MORE SELF-MADE MEN.
At Least They Must Conceal the Fact
If They Are, and Claim
High Descent.

From the highest home to the lowest
in America this idea of caste has en-
tered, destroying our old, high ideals
and making us pretentious and vulgar,
writes San American Mother" of
'How We Can Lead Simple Life" in
Ladies' Home journal. The idle rich
man covets high social place with
hunger that is both ridiculous and
tragic. If he has money enough he
buys titled husband for his daughter
He tries to establish a precedence for
himself over his neighbors by claims
of high descent. Nor is this apprecia-
ton of rank confined TO the leisured
class in this country. 1t is universal
No candidate for office finds it neces-
sary now to pose as a self-made man or
to put his respectable ancestors out of
sight. The self-made man is no longer
noble ancestors are in such demand
that if we do not have them we invent
them as we do air brakes or motors, or
the popular hero. On the contrary,
anything else necessary to our we'll
being and comfort. The rich American
finds it as easy to have a coat-of-arms
and a pedigree as to have dress-coat.
He seldom goes to Burke or the Her
aids college for these things. He
plants and grows his own family tree
as he does his maple at the front door"

PEAT is A POPULAR FUEL.
TIL" English People Find 1t Cheaper
Healthier and Cleaner
Than Coal.

Peats beats coal. In open fireplaces
where a steady heat and not crack
ling blaze is wanted the old-fa shioned
bog blocks have merits not to be found
in the best Wallsends. They are cheap
er, healthier and give less trouble, says
the London Daily Mail.
This does not mean that you can shut
up your coal cellar throw away your
scuttle and boycott the coal merchant.
The Durham and South Wales coal
kings are still going to have dominion
over us, but timely use of peat may
materially lessen the coming winters
coal bills.
Unfortunately, the bog owners and
peat merchants have missed great op-
portunity. There are enormous depos-
its available, especially in the north
and in Ireland, deposits that only want
digging and drying to make the finest
fuel. But they must be dug and dried
in the early summer. Autumn will soon
be here, and no extra supplies have
been prepared. The few peat merchants
are already finding themselves flooded
with orders which they will soon not
know how to execute.
a considerable amount of peat is al
ready burned in London, especially in
the West End. People, after tours in
Ireland or Scotland, get to love the
fresh, earthly smell of the burning
moss, and take care to secure supplies.
Some doctors are fond of ordering it
in place of coal, especially in the case of
patients where quietness is an essen
tial. You can make up your peat fire
early in the morning or last thing at
night by arranging half dozen blocks,
and then go away, knowing that it will
keep burning for eight or ten hours to
come.
