\ NewTime Card and Changes.

On the first Of next month radical
changes will be made in the operation
of limited trains over the Union Pacific
and Short Line railroads, when the new
electric lighted trains will begin to run
the overland for the first time in the
history of railroading west of the Mis-
souri, river. A new time card will also
become effective on that day to conform
with the new train rules on which the
men have recently been taking examina-
tions.
Another feature of the electric tIains
will be a telephone attachment whereby
the trains, as soon as they arrive at a
station for regular stop, will be con-
nected with the long distance telephone
lines and a passenger on the train can
talk to any point. he desires without
getting off the cars.
Dining cars will after the first be
oderated by the railroad companies in
stead of the Pullman COMPANY as here
tofore. Green River Star.

A Diffesent Animal.

Way back in tM mountains of West
Virginia Presbyterian minister some
time ago fell in with some people who
seemed to be well fitted for the mis-
efonary efforts on which he was bent.
He had been riding nearly all day and
late in the afternoon came upon q
cabin set in the midst of a woodland.
Near the door was spare, straight
haired woman, who gazed at him curl
ously. The minister spoke to her
courteously and made some inquiries
regarding the neighborhood Her hus-
band YVES hunter, the woman said.
tAnd is he a God-fearing MANI" asked
the preacher. II reckon So" came the
slow reply, cause he always takes
his gun with him" The visitor has
ti1y changed the subject and inquired
if there were any Presbyterians in the
neighborhood. II dunno" said the
woman. simply, "but there's a lot of
skins hanging up in the cabin; you can

hope of our future resurrection and the
perfection of love of the dear Saviour

Mining IN England

A French syndicate has been FORM
ed for the purpose of mining iron and
coal in the vicinity of Dover, England.
Extensive mining rights have been
acquired in the Alkham Valley, In the
south of Kent, and not far distant
from Dover. The boring Is to be un-
dertaken by French laborers under
the supervision of skilled engineers
from the Pas de Calais. A new dia-
mond drill Is being erected for the
work. Kent is very rich In iron ore.
and at one time was the principal iron
producing district in England. At
various parts eIsthe country may be
seen closed irons mines. The reason
for their abandonment was the scare
ity of coal, but at Dover and at other
places rich seams of coal have been
discovered beneath the iron ore strata,
so that there is every possibility of the
iron mining industry in this part OF
England being revived.

Wolves In France.

We are accustomed to thinking OF
France as country every inch of
which is settled dHd cultivated and
TO regard the wolves which once
sWarLled in that fair country as hav-
ing vanished long ago. But it seems
that wolves still are numerous and
destructive to life and property. So
rapidly did the wolves increase after
the war with Germany that in 1882
law was passed offering a reward for
every one of these animals killed.
since the institution of these pre-
mlrms nearly 5000 wolves have been
killed and over $4,000 has been paid
out in premiums. Last year there
were lis wolves killed. For killing a
she wolf with young $50 is paid; for
a full-grown wolf of either sex 500,
and for whelps So apiece. In medievel
times wolves were the great pest OF
France. They killed people at the
very gates of Paris and were even
known to proWl about the city streets
at night.

Plenty Of Doctors.

Of the physicians in the United States,
1O4, ,O94 are regulars, not including those
in government service; 10, 944 are homeo-
paths, and 4, 752 belong to the eclectic
and nondescript class. In 1900, one of
every 1888 inhabitants was matriculate
at one of the 155 medical schools. This
gives the almost startling ratio of one
medical college to pproximately every
500, 900 population in this country
Comparing this to the figures shown in
some of the other countnes Great
Britain has one to every 1850, 600;
Germany, one to 2,5OO,nO and Austria,
one to 5,OO0,0 600.

Goes to the Supreme Cou1t.

The case of Sidney Stevens VS.. J. \.
Bagley, ct, al, is to be appealed to the
supreme court The point involved is
whether Judge Rich is qualified to hear
the case, he having been attorney years
ago for one of the defendants in the
same case. The attorneys for Sidney
Stevens, Messrs. Glenn and Cough.
asked for change of venue to another
district, which Judge Rich denied.

An Important Decision.

The wyoming Supreme court has
handed down an important decision
in the case of I. c. Miller VS..
Cosgriff Bros, involving the question
of damages that may be collected fof
trespass upon leased lands in this state
though unfenced. The plaintiff in this
case controlled several thousand ACRES
Of grazing lands by lease and purcha ase
from the Union Pacific Railroad cDni-
pany and the defendants grazed their
sheep thereon, after notice had been
given them that same were leased.
Miller sued for $4,000 damages and
the case was tried in the District court
Of Carbon county, in November, 1899
Upon the instructions given BY Honl H.
H. Craig, the trial, Judge the jury
brought in verdict of $500 and the
costs of the trial against Messrs. Cds-
grif Bros.
There was no denial on the part ot
the defendants that their sheep had
trespassed upon the lands of the plain
tiff, but they ccntended that because
the lands were not fenced and the main
part OF the open public domain damages
could not be collected for trespass there
On. The court instructed the jury to
bring in verdict IN favor of Miller, the
plaintiff, ruling that the cornerstones
marking the Government survey were
a sufficient notice Of the boundaries and
that when notice containing a descrip-
tion OF the lands leased and purchased
by him had been given the defendant
BY the plaintiff they were liable for
damages for trespass if they permitted
their stock to Craze thereon.
Every ruling of the lower court on
the question was sustained by the de-
cision handed down today, the full
bench concurring. The Judgment for
$6, 500 and costs with interest at 4 per
cent from Novem oer 1899. was affirmed.
1t is probable that the case will be ap-
pealed to the Supreme court of the
United States
1t is the most important decision per-
tanning to the control of the grazing
lands of the State that has ever been
handed down by the courts, as it def
nitely settles the question of the right
OF lessees or purchasers to undisputed
possession of lands leased or purchased
by them, whether they are fenced or
not

FREIGHT VIA THE c. v.
Plan for Double Tracking That
Road to Haul ii.
A LINE AT BERKELEY STATION
Is to Connect the 3. & o. and c. VI
Freight Likely 0 be Transferred to the
Latter Road Instead to the W, NJ.

Among the improvements contem-
plated for the neal future by the
Cumberland Vallev Railroad Com
pany is the construction Of a stone
arch bridge at Falling Waters TO take
the place of the trestle work over the
small stream and along the hank Of
the Potomac river at that nlace.
Ia building the bridge the COMPANY
will provide for the future BY max
ing it wide enough for a double track.
Steps have already been taken for the
securing of additional land for the
widened bridge. The right of wav
would nave to be secured from Mr..
Stehlev, the station agent at Falling
Waters, who owns the mill at the
falls SPAWNED bv the bridge. 1t is
stated that the company is after buv-
ing the mill and closing it Town. as
the wider stone arch bridge would
prevent it's further operation.
This move on the part of the Cum
berland Valley Railroad Compan
adds weight to the we'll established
belief that the B. & o. is going to
ston sending the freight to the Penn.
s~vlvania and Reading and other roads
BY way of the Western MARYLAND rail
road and instead send 1T Nv wav of
the Cumberland Valley. Since the
Western Maryland has passed into
the control of a rival corporation 1t
Is follv to believe that the company
will for any length of time continue
to transfer freight to thai road at
Cherry RIM, when it can be sent by
way OF the Cumberland Valley, which
is not a rival corporation.
This is one reason for the haste of
the B q D. to get the new low
grade freight line completed. The
section of the line frum Wilson's to
Harper's Ferry passes under the Cum
berland VALLEY Railroad at Berkeley
station. The survey for the line pro-
vides for a connecting link between
the two roads at Berkeley station.
which shows clearly the intention to
send the freight. which has hereto-
fore been going over the Western
MARYLAND. via the Cumberland Valley
railroad.
Ii such is the case. and everything
goes to show that it Will be. necessa
~ to build a big yard north OF Mar
tinsburg to handle the trains. Along
with this move will probably come
the removal of the division terminus
back to Martinsburg. when the other :
end OF 1t is moved from Cumberland
to Keyser after the cutoff around
