Railroad Laborers Held Up.

Near Corinne, Utah, Monday. two
masked men held up and robbed seven
teen laborers. They first entered a
box car in which were two laborers,
whom they relieved Of all their money.
The robbers then entered another box
car containing fifteen Italian laborers,
every one Of whom was searched and
their money and valuables taken.
The frequency Of these hold-ups Of late
has given rise to the belief that an or
ganized gang of robbers is working

Our Washington Correspondent says:
Notwithstanding the statement given
out at the War Department last week,
that General Miles would be retired at
an early date, it is believed that Mr..
Roosevelt has, out of Difference to the
wishes Of prominent republicans, recon
sidered the matter and that no such
action will be taken for the present.
There is rumor abroad that the Pre-
sident will soon ask the resignation of
Secretary Root. II is known that
many Of the members of his party are
bringing rressure to bear to that end
but it seems doubtful If Mr.. Roosevelt
will consent to dispense with the
man who is his most intimate friend
and advisor in the Cabinet. There is
no doubt that recent disclosures in the
Senate Comittee on Philippines have
cast discredit on the Secretary Of War,
but only because he is at the head of
the War Department., and those who
know Mr.. Root best are confident that
he has had no knowledge of the cruel
ties which, In some instances, at least.
have been practiced in the islands.
The transport scandal antedates Mr..
Roots tenure of office so that he can
hardly be held to blame for that.

FINS OF THE FLYING FISH.
They Are Used as Parachutes Rather
Than as Wings.

Out from the warmer seas fly the
flying fish, the fish of which every one
has heard, which yet none can see for
the first time without gasp of amaze
ment, without a feeling as though be-
holding the miraculous, the fish which
has given rise to more untruthful Sto-
ries than any other fish in all the seas.
Undoubtedly the flying fish has wings
like bird; undoubtedly it flies. yet not
as bird. 1t does not flap the wing
like, pectoral fins on which it is up
borne. nor, once launched in the air,
can it change its course by any move
ment of its wings until it dips again
to the water Yet it will pass ship
making ten knots in the hour and tray
ell in the air rs far as 800 feet ut
time.
Astounding, indeed, is the sight of
shoal of flying fish taking to the air,
skimming far over the surface when
the sea is calm. leaping high over
great waves when gales blow Fish
seem ludicrousy out of their element
in the mir, but that fish should fly is
not really more wonderful than that
some animals and birds, like the otter
or the penguin, dive and swim to per-
lection.
The flying fish's fins are really para
] chutes to support and steady its body
rather than wings to propel it, The
lobe of the tail gives propulsion to the
body rs it leaves the water. \ dying

and its long. transparent pectoral fins
reach almost to the tail; but though
very large when expanded, they can
be folded up very neatly. Its flight is
short and Intermittent, and it must

age of fourteen lived in Louisville

His duties consisted of keeping the Of

b. Du Pont, who was part owner OF
the foundry, saw the industrious office
boy rush one day into the street, pick
up a bit of iron and, returning. throw
1t on the scrap heap inside. When the
boy re-entered the office, Mr. Du Pont

young man, in the street car business.
How would you like to come at 81 Il

Young Johnson accepted the s. raise
with aacrity. Mr.. Du pont controlled
the Fourth avenue and Walnut street
lines. One barn was at Eighteenth
and Walnut streets and ut Fourth ave
nue. and Main street was the drawing
station. All the cars of the system
had to pass there, and it was there
that the money was drawn from the
big clumsy boxes into which the fares
were dropped.
One of the rules of the company was
that as each bag of money was drawn
the drawer must carry it into the of
flee, put it into the safe and close the
door.
Mr. Du Pont was seldom at the draw.
ing station during the day, and in time
! the drawers grew careless. No one
had access to the room but the draw
ers, and knowing one another to be
honest they formed the habit of care
lessly throwing the bags of money on
the floor and piling them all into the
safe in heap at the end of the day
or when they thought Mr. Du Pont
might be around.
One day the chief drawer was ILL.,
and young Johnson, the office boy, was
sent by Mr.. Du Pont from Eighteenth
and Walnut streets to Fourth and Main
to help out. Johnson read the rules
and in drawing the bag of money from
the first car he bounded up the steps
to the room, opened the safe, threw il
the money and slammed the door.
"What did you do that for?" demand
ed the bookkeeper
''The rules say So" answered the
subdrawer over his shoulder as he rar
down the steps to meet another car.
The same thing was repeated dozer
times. Then the bookkeeper wheeled
around and demanded:
