The danger comes not only from the consoli-

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

Gold prospectors in Alaska say they
can go farther and accomplish more
hard work on rice and bacon than on
any other ration.
The remains of gigantic human be-
ings have been found in some caves
near Grimaldi, the property of the
prince of Monaco.
Oil fuel is now successfully used on
four steamers of the Hamburg COM
pany run in the eastern trade, and spe-
cially built for this fuel.
The famines in the interior of Rus
STA are coincident with a decline in
the humidity, due in great measure to
the destruction of forests.
In Humboldt and Mendocino coun-
ties, Cal, there are &c sawmills at
work upon the famous redwood for
ests, which are gradually disappear
ing, the value of the output for the
year 1900 being nearly $5,OOO,O0O.
Among the articles of American
manufacture which are still holding
their own in Europe are typewriters,
office furniture, kodak-camera sup
plies, cash-registers, timerecorders,
harvesting machinery, dental instru-
ments and supplies, sewing machines.
The invasion of England by Ameri-
can capital and energy is shown once
more in Heathfeld, Sussex, where
Americans have found and are utiliz-

road station and a hotel are already
lighted by this gas, which will soon be
used throughout the village.
Gross earnings of the railroads in

DECADENCE OF SADDLE-BAGS.
The Handy Carriers of Old Are Not
Often Seen in These Days of
Good Roads.

"The old-time saddle bags used by
country doctors have two arch enc
mics in the drug store and good roads,
said the man from Texas, according to
the New York Times. There are not
nearly so many saddle bags used now
adays as there were rs years ago. They
are one of the commodities that the
increase in the country's population
is gradually driving out of existence.
''Why, can remember that when
was a youngster it was common thing
for a doctor to have his patients scat
tered over a circuit of 40 miles or more.
Often there would not be drug store
in all that region, and the only RENE
dies at hand were the medicines car
riedi in saddle bags. This was the condi
ton throughout the greater part of
the entire country. Now, however, vii
lagos have multiplied, and each has
added that keystone of modern civil
zation. the corner drug store, where all
the inhabitants of the neighborhood
except those that are exceedingly ru-
raj take their prescriptions and have
compounded the tonics that cure their
ills.
Good roads are hardly less impor-
tant as factor in the decadence of
saddle bags. The time was when it
was impossible for a doctor to drive
over the well-nigh impossible sloughs
called public roads, and saddle bags
were necessity. Now the condition
of the highways makes it possible for
a man to visit most of his patients in
buggy, in which case the hand medi-
cine chest is substituted for the old
fashioned saddle bags.
There are more saddle bags used in
Missouri and Texas to-day than any
other states in the union. In many
sections of those commonwealth ply
sicians still travel great distances, but
| suppose the time is not far off when
saddle bags will become back num-
Der, even in those sparsely settled dis
tricts.
$50 far as the practitioner is con-
cerned, this change in fashion is to be
regretted, for a doctor who has never
ridden across country with saddle bags
Tapping at his horses sides has never
tasted admiration in its highest form.
To the farm people who stare after
him with open-mouthed awe and won
der as he dashes past he is the apoth-
costs of human accomplishments, and
the pleasure he derives from such
alteration is totally unknown to the
doctor who cures people without the
aid of saddle bags"

and unless it is rainy there is never

from Chicago recently drove around
Redlands, comfortable in their furs,
commenting on the fact that residents
seemed to be enjoying themselves

Tropical vegetation appeared on every

of few years ago, has grown into one
of the loveliest cities in the world.
beautiful in a way distinctively its
own. 1t should not be considered as
rival of Riverside which, older and in
a larger valley, has developed quite
different scenery.
Each prominent city has its own in
dividuality, its own sphere, as Hruly
evident as that of any person, and the
charm of each is distinctive. One of
the most prominent women in the
United States said: 81 have travelled
the world over and have never seen an
other street as beautiful as Magnolia
avenue in Riverside Too MANY stran-
gers take hasty ride around the kite
shaped track and catch only glimpse
OF these cities which are, each in itself.
a study in beauty which no one should
miss. Between Redlands and River
side Cotton is situated, very like the
hub of an immense wheel, for a per-
son must come here from each of the
surrounding towns in order to reach
one of the others. 1t is here that the
great railway systems meet for the
first time on entering the state. 1t is
in a great valley, surrounded by dis
faint mountains. In the center of the
plain rises one large, lone mountain Of
marble. Large orange ranches are in
the very center of the cities belt. tbe
owners of many of which now reside
at Riverside or Redlands; but Cotton
is so situated, and with more than
plenty of water, that it should. when
building boom strikes it, vie with its
two wealthy neighbors as charming
residence town. Being well located
for manufacturing, with the finest
shipping facilities, it seems destined
to become, at no distant day, a point
of great Importance. A drive of three
miles from Cotton to San Bernardino
the county seat, is very enjoyable, the
air in this section being particularly
invigorating.
Los Angeles, Pasadena and San
Diego are so entirely different that it
would require another letter to men,
tion the points of interest which
should be seen by every visitor.
