Henry Ward Bcccher, in the course of
a conversation on reading SAID: The
great point is to read nothing without re-
Election. DIR. Macaulay, who used to
preach in New York, told me that when
a boy at college he began TO read enthusi-
astically, but that at the loot of every
page he read he stopped ana obliged him nm,
self TO give an account of what he had
read en- that page At first he had to
read it three or four times before he got
his mind firmly fixed. But he Vigorously
compelled himself to conform to the pro
cess, until now. he says, after he has
read a book through once, he can almost
recite it from beginning to end. 1t is

full of humanity. and fairly overfows
with lofty sentiment ano genuine com

R0uT
OF RAILROAD FROM DENVER TO
NORTHWEST FOUND I'M
PRACTICABLE.
Blocked Building of a Line from
Steamboat Springs To and
Through Rawlins-RaiIroad Notes
and Personals.

1t is understood that plans were re-
Gently begun looking to the building OF
a new railroad into the northwest from
Denver which in length would have ex-
ceeded the Moffat road, but which has
been abandoned, says the apparently
wise railroad reporter of the Denver
Times. The road was to have started
at Steamboat Springs, in Routt county,
and gone north from that point, touch
ing at Rawlins, Wyo., on the Union Pa
cifc, and then extending on into Butte,
Mont. 1t was found that the route was
not a practical one SO the matter was
dropped and the road will not be built.
Mr.. Moffat had surveyors on this
same line and found that a 10 per cent
grade was the very best that could be
obtained through that country, and for
that reason it was considered imprac-
ticable. The Burlington road also
figured on the route, but stopped its
surveys at the same point because of
lue llOullldllAOuo SouAASl "AASA phS
scented engineers problems almost i'm
possible to solve. The country that
would be opened by such a road is an
immense one and very rich in natural
resources. In the event that a route is
| found at a later date it is very probable
that such a road will be constructed.
These surveyors ire the ones that
have been reported in Routt county
from time to time, and who were gen
orally credited as being in the service
of the Union Pacific.
The town of Rawlins was one of the
principal points on which the company
had figured in reaching. The freight
receipts for the past year at this place
was $241, 900, and the sale of tickets
$4S, 5000. There were $50 cars loaded
and shipped into the town and 1860
were handled from that point. OF this
1.O46 were loaded with stock. The
average business done during the year
from all sources by one railroad was
$25, 900 a month. The men who were
agitating the road say that almost
every dollar Of this business would
have come to Denver If this city had
a road through that country, besides
the local business from all Of the inter
vening territory.

Tn less than a quarter of an hour she had increased this lead and led by one mile and half. A few minutes later the Shamrock looked as if she was gaining on the Reliance, both boats sailing an unusually fast clip. At ten minutes before three the yachts vera within five miles of the finish and the Reliance led by one and one-quarter miles. At 2:o3 the yachts were within three miles of the finish and the Shamrock was behind the Reliance about three minutes and forty seconds.
 Tt was nip and tuck race then to the finish, but the Reliance maintained her lead and crossed the line in the official time of 3:17.45 and the Sham rock followed her at 3:4:15.
