PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT IN VEL
LOWSTONE PARK.

Black-tail deer and antelope he saw
feeding on the slopes on either side OF
the road from Gardiner to the fort, and
even on the parade ground. Sometimes
the rattle OF the cavacade, OF which he
was the head, caused them to turn and
look. More often they fed on without
paying the slightest attention to the
rumbing and the cloud Of dust. But
when Lieutenant Cullen asked tho Presi-
dent If he would not like to see some
mountain sheep. Mr.. Roosevelt's Gre
dulity rebclled at the strain. lie had
come out for fun, and he was willing
perhaps. to have n little joking done at
his expense, provided 1t was not incon-
sistent with dignity of the commander
in-chief of the army. But in his day he
had Travelled for weeks out from his
ranch on the little Missouri in search of
bg-horn sheep, and had shot a few of
them only after terrific exertions and the
risk of his afterwards distinguished life.
| Go out for afternoons stroll and
| see few mountain sheep?' The Prcs-
| dent laughed. Then they told him that
| they had omitted the salute of u guns
with which the President should be
greeted at an army post because they
| did not want to scare away the game

The recent bloody deeds in Belgrade,
sweeping away from the earth the last

PRODUCTION of a new arrangement of things

with this importat question it may be
not too hazardous to prophesy that the
usual summer quiet of the European
situation will be considerably disturbed
in the near future.
The present disorder IN Scrva is the
very atmosphere at least for the Rus
sian policy. Eventually this policy. the
most clever in the world, probably will
gain the game either by violating treaties
openly or by the sword. 1t would be not
at all surprising if European war now

During the morning the Pontiff partici-

GROWTH OF ELECTRIC ROADS.

A report on the street and electric rail
ways of the United States showing the
increase In the use of electricity as a
motive power has been issued by the
census bureau. 1t shows that there are
in the United States Sl7 operating street
and electric railway companies and 10
companies leased to and operated by
other companies. making total of 9S7
companies controlling 22.579.99 miles of
single track. The par value of the CAPT
tai stock and funded debt outstanding
amounted to s2,30S, 2s2 o99. The average
net capital liabilities per mile of single
track We're 500
The total income of the companies
amounted to $3.50 5Oi.627 and their expen-
ses to $2l9 SO7 $50. The companies paid
during the year to 1913 6il wage earners
$50, 40, ii9 They also paid 81, 439, ZIG in sal
aries. The roads carried 5,s71 ,957. $50 pas
Scngers.
The single track mileage increased
from S,l23U- miles in 1890 to %, 561,99 miles
in 1907. or 1874 per cent, and the number
of fare passengers carried from 2O23, 0l0,-
202 to 4S09 55i, 4}S. or 1874 per cent.
The increase in the length OF track Is
confined entirely to the roads operated
10y electric power. The use Of electric
power was reported by 126 companies in
1870 and 747 in 1902. The single track
mileage operated by this power Increased
from !. 2G2 miles in 1890 to $50 In 1902.
The average length of line per operat-
ing company in 1890 was al miles, as
compared with 203S miles in 1902.

increased to g.
The total reported cost of construction
increased Sl,77S, ZIG, 7SS, or 1867 per cent.
as compared with an increase of $3.50
Oit,l42, or 3S21 per cent In the combined
par value of the capital stock and fund
ed debt. The increase In both capital
stock and funded debt is due largely to
consolidation of independent roads,
The increase in earnings from opera
ticn was sl56 $50 7sS, or 1872 per cent; the
increase in operating expenditures was
SsO30l il2, or l29,5 per cent.

OUR SWARM OF ITALIANS.

In 1902. $4,000 Italians came to America
through the port Of New York greatly
exceeding the number from any other
nation. About y per cent of the Italians
took up their residence in New York
city in districts already dangerously
Congested. Seventy-flvc per cent were
distributed throughout the country.
There is constant demand now for men
in construction work Of all kinds. and
the Italians are called the railroad
builders Of the world"
"In Europe. as in America" said n
member of the Society for the Protection
Of Italian Immigrants wherever a rail-
road is being constructed you will find
Italian laborers doing the work. Activity
in railroad and tunnel building. and in
other works in the United States. has
attracted my cOuntrymen. AS a rule. the
people who migrate from Europe to the
United States engage in the same occupa-
ton here that they followed at home
one great factor in bringing so many
Italians to New York is the news of the
bridge and tunnel projects OF tho city.
Railroad work carries tn" Italians who
arrived at New York to all parts of the
country. You will find them making tho
roadbeds and laying the rails of the
steam roads in the Rocky mountains. just
as you SOC thousands of them here in
the subway and ether works in the
metropolis.
But they are not all builders. Thou
sands of them go into the mines in vari-
Gus sections. some even to the copper
mines of PARKWAY Montana and other
parts of the West. one condition which
Is bringing so many people from Italy to
America is the high tariff on Italian
fresh fruits brought into the United
States. This alone has made fruit-ra is
