 Senator Burton, of Kansas, i'm troduced a bill in congress. this week, which passed, authorizing the construction by the Central Arizona railroad company of line through the San Francisco noun tain forest reserve. from Flagstaff southeast to Jerome and Globe. It is proposed to connect the road with the Gila Valley, Globe and Northern, and thence by way of Bowie with the Southern Pacific into Fl Paso.
 The Santa Cruz valley is to be reserved by the government and placed under commission, to be governed in the same manner as the forest reserves, says the Tucson Citizen. This is part of great ex- pertinent being conducted by the department of agriculture, and the Santa Cruz valley reserve will be the first of its kind to be established in the United States. The valley is to be reserved in order to restock it with the native grasses and to regulate the number of cattle that will be allowed to graze on the land. This reservation will not ex- clude homestead or mineral entry, but will merely place the land un- der the supervision of a govern ment commission.
 It is stated on excellent semi official authority that the amount of claims paid out by the Southern Pacific in settlement of claims aris- ing out of the late wreck in Texas has thus far exceeded s73 1000, says the Fl Paso Herald.

which has a new moon, is the first day
of the first year of the last 100 years
OF the first 5000 years, and, mark my

hottest period of 80 years, which is
just half of a week of years, that this
old world has ever seen"

a statistical philosopher has been
telling London medical paper that
he has calculated the distance covered
by dancers in the course of an even
ing's entertainment and finds that a
waltz of average duration is 1000
yards in length, a mazourka about
900 and polka 800, while quadrille,
with its four figures, covers nearly
1,S00, or about at mile. The whole
series of dances at an ordinary ball,
beginning at 10 p. m. and finishing
a. m. he says, represents no fewer
than 56, 900 steps, equivalent to nearly
thirty miles on level ground. OF
course the next step in logical sequence
is to calculate how much vital energy
is used up in such an evenings exer-
else and how much machinery could
be propelled by the force thus produc-
ed. Rutland News.
After the amount of expended ener-
gy has been calculated go step far
ther and determine, if possible, how
much time has been used by the math-
ematician in arriving at these results
and what it would amount to in dol
lars at five cents per hour.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT.

Lenox, Mass, Sept. News of the
accident had preceded the Presidents
coming by few moments only, and
there was no cheering. Stopping in
the midst of the throng, the President
rose to speak. Briefly he described
the accident and said that he was not
hurt. He told Of the death of Secret
Service Agent Craig, manifesting
much emotion. 1.-THE man whom l
loved, " he said, because of his faith
fulness and his kindness to my chill
dren-" The President was unable to
proceed further, his voice breaking
After a moment he excused himself
and stepped down from his carriage,
and recognizing some personal friends
in the throng shook hands with them.
At Great harrington the reception to
President Roosevelt, instead of being
marked by cheers and loud acclaim,
was silent according to the wishes of
the President, which had been tele-
graphed ahead requesting mo demon
stration. The President spoke few
words to the people from the rear plat
form of the car, thanking them for
their interest. He made no address,
and plainly showed in his manner the
seriousness of the experience through
which he had passed. On his cheek
was discoloration showing where he
had been injured.

SUDDEN DEATH.

Brooklyn, Sept. 4.-From twelve to
eighteen workmen were crushed to
death yesterday afternoon under the
ruins of a huge gas tank being erected
on the property of the Brooklyn
Union Gas Company. All the work
men were engaged in riveting the bot
tom of new gas receiver. The tank
was to have been the largest of its kind
in the world 1t had been raised from
the ground on jacks in order to permit
the workmen to rivet on the bottom.
At three o'clock the jacks which
were supporting the tank gave way
and it fell to the ground, burying be.
meath it from twelve to eighteen men.
The exact number of victims cannot
be learned until the tank has been TAX
EN- apart and lifted from their bodies.
But it is known that there were at
least dozen men at work, and posi-
bly, eighteen. The tank was being
constructed of plates over an inch in
thickness. No apparatus can possibly
lift the fallen mass, and it will be
necessary to take it apart in order to
get at the bodies of the men. This
will take several hours. A large
force of ironworkers from the Hecla
Iron Works is now at work cutting
the rivets and removing the plates.

the popular vote. The election of Gov
ernor and lieutenant governor will
go TO the Genreal Assembly. The re-
turns Of the elections to the Senate
and House of Representatives indicate
a regular Republican majority of from
twelve to fourteen in the Senate, and
a certain majority of uncertain extent
in the House. \ conservative estimate
Republican majority on joint ballot
will not be less than forty. 1t may
be materially larger. The election
of Mccullough and Stanton by the
General Assembly appears to be beyond
peradventure, and General McCul-
Tough can safely begin the preparation
of his message to that body.
The candidates before the General
Assembly must be the three for whom
the greatest number of votes has been
returned The votes must be sorted
and counted, and the result declared,
by committee appointed by the Sen
ate and House of Representative
Thereupon, the General Assembly, on
its own initiative, will meet i'll joint
session and the closing act in this long
drama Of hope deferred will be enact
ed, and the heart sickness of one man
may be cured and that of another may
be greatly aggravated.

THE PRESIDENT.

Lenox, Mass, Sept. "a serious acct
dent befel the Presidents party, en- route
in a landau to Lenox, shortly after 10
o'clock this morning. The President was
uninjured, but Governor Murray Crane

Officer Craig was killed. Secretary Cor

on to Curtis Hotel, LenoX. All plans for
the immediate future are indefinite. He
will probably go on to Bridgeport as
originally intended. All features of the

HOT WEATHER SWEETS.
How to Make Fruit soumes with
Either Crenm or Water.


No Ice is more delicious than the
Bouffle. Made with fruit Juice and wa
ter, it is temptingly refreshing on hot
day and lacks the somewhat overrich
quality Of ice cream. The more elab-
crate souffle, mixed with cream, Is
equally toothsome, but slightly richer
and heavier. The rule for each is the
same, whatever the flavor chosen.
Fruits of all sorts can be used and are
all excellent, says the Kansas City
Star, but the pineapple has n peculiar
piquancy when made after the simple
manner with water only, and such
juicy fruits as the orange, strawberry,
raspberry and peach are peculiarly
well adapted to the purpose Pineapple,
being somewhat difficult to manage
with gelatin, is less easily made into
the cream souffle than are other fruits,
although it is possible to achieve sue
cess if great care is taken.
To make pineapple water soufile peel
ripe, juicy pineapples, remove the eyes
and cut into bits. Then sprinkle with
sugar and let stand for several hours.
Strain through a fruit press, and to
every pint of the juice add one of wa
ter, six eggs we'll beaten and one
pound of sugar, less the quantity pre-
viously used. Place the whole in
custard boiler and cook until it takes
the consistency of boiled custard, stir
ring all the while. When removed
from the fire, stand the vessel in one
of cold water, and beat the custard
briskly until cold, Pour into the freez-
err can, freeze after the usual manner
and serve with cream slightly sweet
ened and favored with pineapple juice.
To make soullles of other favors fol-
low the same general rule, substituting
the juice of whatever fruit may be Sc
lected for that of the pineapple. In
addition to the more familiar favors,
currant, cherry, plum and what is
known as harlequin, or a mixture Of
two or more favors, will be found de-
liciouS.

How to Peel Apples.

In peeling apples it is disagreeable
to see a sort of brown rust creeping
over the white pulp if the slices have
to stand very long. This brown color
Ing is a pigment of the actual nature
of rust caused by the presence of iron
In the fruit and the oxidation of that
iron by the air. The acid in the pulp
helps in this oxidation considerably.
BY setting each quarter or slice as it
is peeled in a basin Of cold water no
air contact is possible, and the brown
ness is avoided. But the water draws
of flavor to color if this plan Is used
and the apples soaked too long. Any
discolored slices will turn white again
If rubbed with piece of lemon.
