P. F. Haynes and J. W. McGargIe
Making Final Arrangements For
the Inter Lakes Road.
TWO ROUTES ARE SUGGESTED
Farmers Residing South of the Geneva
Road Ask For Change.-Road to Be
Built in the Early Spring.

Patrick F. Haynes, of Chicago, one
of the promoters of the Wisconsin In
terurban Railway company, and John
w. McGarg1e, who is interested in the
Be1oit and Milwaukee roads, came to
Kenosha this morning and went out to
the western part of the county for the
purpose of selecting the western route
of the Inter Lakes Railway. The line
to Truesde11 will not in any way be
changed, as it is entirely satisfactory,
both to the local company and to the
other company with whose lines the
Inter Lakes will connect at Lake
Geneva. It is the intention of the two
promoters to select the route west OF
Truesde11 today. The first route Sc
lected was the one running due west
from Truesde1l, but in the last few
weeks parties residing on a road one
mile south of the Geneva road have
urged the company to make some
change in the route so as to include
this road. Both lines have been sur
veyed and the final selection will be
made by Haynes and McGargle. Both

west, as it is thought to furnish the
best route for high speed line.
In speaking of the new line this
morning Mr.. Haynes stated that all
matters pertaining to the road and its
construction had been settled, and that
the work of building would start about
the first of next April. Ample finan-
cia1 backing has been secured for the
project and the company now has the
permission of the different towns in
the county for the laying of the
tracks.
There is no longer any doubt but
that the line will serve as a connec-
ton with the Milwaukee, Burlington
and Lake Geneva, and with the COM
pletion of the two lines the entire cir
cult of the Lakes of Southern WiscOn-
sin will have been completed. The
managers of the Milwaukee line have
applied to the Milwaukee council for
permission to amend their franchise so
as to permit the hauling of freight on
the line and the request will probably
be granted.

NewfoundIand,s Iron Ore.

What the gold reefs of Johannes burg
are to the Transvaal, the Wabana iron
beds are to Newfoundland. They form
immense deposits of rich red hematite
ore, three miles long and several hun
dred feet wide, and showing $4,000, eco
tons in sight above water. The beds
dip downward at an angle of eight de-
grees, and it is believed that they ex-
tend below the sea in practically un-
limited quantity, though what is now
in sight will suffice for generations
work. To all intents and purposes the
mine is open quarry. The ore is got
at by chopping off a surface covering
of earth and rock and then loosening

Slave 70 n Pillow.

There Is in this city young man
who sleeps Oh pillow that is one foot
square and only four inches thick, a
pillow that resembles pancake. He
has used 1t ever since he was baby
When, at the age Of twelve, he entered
st. Paul's school, he took it all the way
to New Hampshire with him, and
when he entered Harvard he took 1t to
Cambridge also. Starting on his we'd
ding journey, he carried it in his suit
case. When he went abroad, the pill
low went along. And now, when he is
twenty-five, he Is more attached to the
tiny thing than ever and will take it on

to the country houses Of his friends.
He says that he has not once slept on
anything but this pillow since he was

THE POULTRY YARD.

Gravel or coarse sand Is as much
needed as ordinary food.
All chickens want for health, growth
and good conditions is plain, nutritious
food.
Even when the fowls have an unlim-
tied range 1t Is n good plan to feed
them every evening.
One Of the first things to learn about
poultry is that they must be kept clean
and free from vermin.
Peafowls are handsome and subsist
with the least care Of any kind OF
fowls. They are prolific layers and a
good protection against hawks.
Raw bone contains every part OF an
egg-white, yolk and shell. Therefore
1t should be kept constantly before lay
ing hens In the granulated form.
One Of the best ways Of removing lice
from fowls Is to make them do 1t them
selves by having n lot Of dry earth
where they can dust themselves when
ever they feel like 1t.
The comb Is always mn index to the
condition Of the bird. When the comb
is white or very pale or very black,
something is wrong. A healthy fowl
shows bright scarlet color in the
comb.

Shoulder Protection.

In the steel curb shoulder protection
which now forms part Of the equip
ment Of almost all cavalry the troops
have permanent reminder of one of
the most exciting adventures which be-
fell Sir George Luck, the lieutenant
general commanding the Bengal forces.
During the Afghan operations of 1873
to 1880 he took his regiment, the Fiji
teenth hussars, up to Kandahar and en-
countered Mt Takht-i-Pul strong body
of hillmen led by Afghan sowars, who
made things pretty warm for him for
few minutes. In the hand to hand
fighting he became engaged with a g.
gantic Pathan, who broke down his
guard and would have cloven him from
shoulder to belt but that his wife had
sewed on his shoulders in the lining Of
his tunic n couple Of steel curb chains,
one of which broke the force of the
slash.
The incident so impressed the mill
tary authorities in India that what Is
now known as the Luck or lucky"
shoulder curb was soon afterward In
troduced.-Military Mail.

A Last Joke.

John D. Long, in the Massachusetts
campaign of 1878, was making his first
run for governor against General Ben
Butler, who had captured the Demo-
cratic nomination, and Judge Josiah G..
Abbott, who was the candidate Of the
old line Democrats.
The late Judge Thompson was max
ing a speech for Abbott before a big
Democratic audience and, after prais-
ing the candidate as a jurist and n
statesman, asked sarcastically, And
now, who is this John L-L-Long" No
one answering, he proceeded: "They
say he has made translation of Ho-
mer's Iliadr What g-g-good is that to
us? All Democrats read Homer In the
original"
At this the person to whom the judge
was telling the story laughed, but the
Judge continues: "Th-th-that's not the
real Joke mt all! The real joke Is that
not m-m-man in the audience SO much
as Smiled"'
