Hand In hand the swain and his
ladylove walked beneath the noble
trees of the forest.
1t was autumn, and the sole scent
Of the woodlands was as incense to
them, while the vagrant breezes did
marvels with the lustrous locks of the
lady.

at the foliage, what makes the leavei
so red?"
Now, the swain was blessed with
the soul of poet, so he made reply:
"They but blush in memory Of the
kiss l gave you beneath them last
summer"
And the woman, being a coy young
thing, and given to discrimination, yet
of a resourceful mind smiled:

two roads will connect at Salt Lake
City, thus establishing a through con-
nection between Denver and the Pa
clfic coast.
When it is borne in mind that Mr..
Moffat's new road will connect at
Denver with the Rock Island and the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, the
importance Of this new connection be-
comes apparent.
The Denver. Northwestern and Pa
cific railway will traverse a virgin ter
ritory, from Denver to Salt Lake City,
a distance of approximately 800 miles,
being 235 miles less than by the Den
yer and Rio Grande Railway between
Denver and Salt Lake City.
The section through which the road
will go Is as large as the State Of
Pennsylvania and Is rich in minerals,
anthracite coal and splendid agricul-
tural possibilities, and yet it is not
traversed by a single road.
The great territory northwest of
Denver, as yet undeyeloped. is greater
in area than the combined areas of Yer
mont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts.
Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware
and New Jersey, which have a combln-
ed population of about 100000 And
this territory to-day, which is capable
Of supporting in luxury the miner and
the farmer, the agriculturst and the
beef raiser, has a population of only
10000. 1t is claimed by the protector
Of the road that there is not a similar

advice given to young people by Mrs.
Reuben Nagle, farmer of St Law

enty years. Her husband is about the
same age, and for half a century they
lived together as man and wife. Only
the other day they agreed to live apart,
and they went about making the ar
engagements apparently without a pang
of regret First, they went to an at
torney's office and he drew up the
papers. Next they had deeds prepared
making an equal division Of their prop
erty They started out in life with
little, and wound up half a century of
matrimony with about $4,000 invested
In real estate and securities. This was
amicably divided without the shadow
Of a difference. The lawyer having
prepared the papers handed them to
the couple and the husband paid his
fee. Then they walked to the court
house together, filed the papers in the
Recorders office, and in the corridor
of the building separated without a
display of any emotion whatever.

piled "Good-by." They did not even
shake hands, only the slightest nod as
each went his or her own way.

never knew them to quarrel, though
they often had strong differences of
opinion. I'm fact" said Mr. Maggie,

Of separating as we did into matri-

because we weren't happy, and that's
all there Is about it."

ever since. 1t was there that she was

Innovations in journalism are NOT
generally looked for in Europe, but
Paris of late has been doing a few
things in that line which have been
distinctly new. The latest is a Jour
nal for beggars, which has been start
ed for the purpose of disseminating
useful information among the mendi-
cant fraternity, and the price of which
is cents a copy. AT a glance it would
seem as If this charge was rather high,
considering the supposed straitened
means of its readers but presumably
the editors know what they are about.
The advertisements furnish interest
ing reading for beggars temporarily

understand how the advertiser could
expect to receive an answer to the fol-
lowing:
"Wanted-a blind man who can play
the flute a little'
Probably some unfortunate dumb man
will tell his blind confrere of the va
cancy.

yertised vacancy which requires awk-
