FREIGHT HANDLING CHANGES.

Y
 Northampton, Mass, March 27.- There are important changes in the methods of handling freight, which af- feet Northampton railroad men of both the Boston and Maine and New York, New Haven and Hartford roads. When the Boston and Maine road was compelled because of the fears re- garding the Connecticut river bridge, to carry it's freight between Northamp- ton and Boston over the Fitchburg road it found that transportation by that route instead of being more eX- pensive, was less so, because of the more favorable grades.
 The change in handling freight on the New York, New Haven and Hartford road is one of difference in the point at which Boston freight billed for points beyond New York is transferred from the Boston and Maine cars to the New York New Haven and Hartford cars. This freight has formerly been trans ferred at New Haven, but is now re- loaded in Northampton and by this plan the charge for the use of Boston and Maine cars between Northampton and New Haven is largely avoided. This makes necessary a considerable increase in the number of freight hand lers at the Mort hampton depot, and also an extension of the platform facil- ities. The present platform is to be ex- tended 450 feet, and to accomplish this it will be necessary to shift some of the sidetracks.

the top on the can and crimps the same. The cans now pass up an in olined conveyer and run through the solder bed, which dramatically seals them. They then run down long chute, in which the cans are sprayed with cold water to cool the solder The cans are now placed in iron frames about three feet square called coolers. The loaded cooler is grasped by a tackle and submerged in the test kettle. Ihls is tank of hot water Any air bup- bles rising to the surface indicate faulty can, which is at once repaired. Several coolers are placed upon truck and run into the retort. The salmon IS cooked by steam at 200 deg. F'arenhe1t. Usually four trucks are taken by the average retort The retorts are huge iron boilers with steam tight doors. The first cooking occupies sixty minutes, at the expira- ton of which time the trucks are with drawn and the cans vented. This IS done with small mallet, barbed, which punches a small hole in the top of the can. The escaping steam and water spout out in a small stream, often to the height of several feet.
 The vent holes are stopped up by a single drop of solder, Again the coalers are run in to the second cooking re- torts, where they are cooked for anoth CT sixty minutes.
 After this last cooking the cans are withdrawn, again washed and allowed to cool. Lacquering, labelling, testing boring and shipping then follow.
 Throughout the whole process the ut most care and cleanliness is observed. No one need hesitate about a can of salmon. If modern canning methods are used, it is the cleanest and most wholesome Of canned foods.

LOST LAKE.
Said to be FabuIousIy Rich in Coarse
 Gold

Prospecting for gold makes husky men even if they don't always find the gold Sometimes these men can tell in- teresting tales.
 Joseph Morehead whose headquarters are in Elgin, Ore. writes, Last Fall I came down here, attracted by the rich strikes in the Baker City fields. On my arrival I heard a fairy story of lost lake in the Blue Mountains which was said to be fabulously rich in coarse gold The story had all the ear marks of the lost mine and lost cabin stories to be heard in every mining district: pro- spector driven out by Indians. brought pocket full of nuggets with him, died and left the customary rough sketch of the locality, etc, etc.
 I determined to have a look for it, and as the formation is volcanic it is too rough for pack animals. The prob lem was how to carry food enough in addition to my pick, pan and blanket for a two weeks sojourn in the moun- tains.
 had, a short time before been pro specting with an old mountaineer in the Bitter Root range in Montana, He was an enthusiast on the subject of Grape Nuts and Postum Coffee. In fact he lived on them. I used to josh him about the grub but soon grew to like it myself and finally got to eating Grape Nuts three times a day and as much oftener as I got the chance.
 So with my former experience in mind got five packages of GrapeN Nuts and some packages of Postum Coffee which with little sugar and salt were all the supplies I took with me, and for nine days laborious climbing over the toughest country out Of doors had nothing else except an occasional trout caught from the stream. l came back feeling first class and am offering to bet that I can average thirty miles a day over mountain trails with thirty pounds of blankets, etc, on nothing but Grape Nuts"

GENEROSITY OF A SKIPPER.
Dropped s25 In Quarters and Half
Dollars Into Salvation Army Kettle.

The captain of British tramp
steamer the other afternoon attracted
a good deal Of attention and aroused
some comment at Beaver street and
Broadway. In New York, by showering
S25 into a Salvation Army iron kettle.
The sum, which was entirely in quar-
tiers and half dollars he had moment
before received from a towboat COM
pany in payment OF commission, says
the New York Tribune Most astonlsh-
ed of all the specta prs perhaps was
the Salvation Army captain. who at
the beginning of the shower attempted
to return a blessing with every drop
that fell. He was unsuccessful.
The man who caused this consterna-
ton and amazement was Captain Mil
lens of the steamer Needles, then lying
at anchor off Liberty island. about to
sail for Shanghai. The performance.
1t appears. was his method of celebrat-
ing Christmas. which he expected to
pass on the high seas.
