"FREED0M FOR WHITE MEN,"
BY WILLIAM e. SMYTHE.

One of the earliest converts to the
national irrigation cause, among the
prominent men of the east, was Ed
ward Everett Hale, the famous Bos-
ton author, divine and philanthropist.
To one of the early missionaries OF
the movement, Doctor Hale explained
that the first public work he ever
engaged in was the promotion OF emf
grafton to Kansas to preserve the
equilibrium of the Tree and the slave
states. He added: "Now l. am for
this great movement of yours because
l have come to the conclusion that
freedom for white men is just as i'm
portant as freedom for Blacks"
BY that striking remark the great
Bostonian showed that he appreciated
the vast social and economic signiti-
canoe of the plan which looks to the
reclamation of our neglected empire
in the west and the making of homes
for millions Of people. Some of the
issues which are rising in connection
with this undertaking do actually in
volve the problem of giving freedom,
as opposed to servitude, to white men.
Doctor Hale saw that this was so
after a very brief consideration OF the
matter and it would be we'll indeed
if all his countrymen could appreciate
the fact as clearly.
To begin with, there is the question
as to whether the future settler OF
the great arid region shall be able to
obtain his heritage-his share OF the
public domain-at the government
price. or whether he will be compelled
to pay tribute to the enterprising spec
ulator who has forestalled him. I'm
der existing laws it is possible for
land to be acquired in large amounts
by those who have no intention what
aver of making a home upon It. Not
only is it possible" but the thing is
! being done by wholesale at the present
time. The entire assets OF many a
land and water scheme in the west,
on which bonds are issued and sold in
the east and abroad, is fertile SOIL
recently carved out of the public do
main with one of the two instruments
which our national statutes provide
the desert land law and the commute,
ton clause of the homestead law.

In struggle that could end only in the death of one of them. They bat tied fiercely for several minutes, and then, weakened by the loss of blood, the deer sank to the ground. Mrs. lomlinson is a powerful woman, oth- erwise the contest would not have lasted so long, nor would it have ended as it did.
 Mrs. Tomlinson is we'll known as a hunter. She has to her credit a large string of deer and smaller game Sat urday morning she started on deer hunt. Her dog raised fine four pointer and Mrs. Tomlinson immedi- ately dropped him. As it lay on the ground Mrs. Tomlinson ran up to cut the animals throat, but at the first prick of the knife it sprang to it's feet, full of fight.
 After 1t was over Mrs. Tomlinson, weak from the exertion and torn and bruised from the horns and hoofs of the deer, made her way home. Her husband returned to the spot and se- cured the body of the deer, and Mrs Tomlinson is going to have the head mounted as a memento of her fight for life.

THE GERMAN HldH-sPEED MOTOR CAR.

up in the body of the car and the run- ming gear, and the rest is made up by the motors, transformers and other de- tails of the electrical equipment. Each end of the car rests on six-wheeled bogie truck of the American type, and the. motors are four in number, one att tached to the front and rear axle Of each truck, the middle pair of wheels in each group running free. The wheels are 49 inches in diameter and are equipped with pneumatic brakes of the standard type. The transformers, which are hung beneath the middle section of the car, weigh F tons, besides which storage battery of 631 pounds weight supplies the currents for lighting pur- poses. The interior of the car is pro- vided with upholstered seats lengthwise along the sides, and an open railing en- closes at each end the space occupied by the driver, who, standing behind a curved front of plate glass within easy touch of volt and ampere meters, gauges which show the resistance of the air, and dial that indicates and registers the speed, controls its movements by turning pilot wheel.
 The trolley poles were set along the side of the track 100 feet apart, and the steel bows extending over the track sustained three parallel lines of heavy copper. trolley wire. This three-phase alternating current supplied voltage of 13500 volts and this was reduced by transformers carried under the floor of the car to an average pressure of 1 800 Folts. and in that condition turned into ySe motors, of which the car carried four, two at either end, with an aggre- gate energy of ,000 horse power.
 During the tremendous speed attained over two miles a minute-the swaying movement of the car was scarcely per ceptible, and according to those who have made trips in the car during the trial trips no discomfort from vibration, wind pressure or other cause was ex-. oerienced in greater degree than on an ordinary express train of the D class in Germany.

Man Carried Ashore From Wreck by
 Belt of Monograph Cylinders.
 News of an ingenious escape from drowning comes from the Midway ca ble station, writes the Honolulu core spondent of the New York Herald. S. McMichael, one of the operators, left Honolulu on the schooner Julia E. Whale for Midway station. The schoon- CT encountered bad weather off the is land and was driven on the reef a few nights ago. Fears for the safety all on board were entertained
 With remarkable presence of mint McMichael is reported to have devised a novel life belt. Cylinder records for a phonograph had been placed in his care for the station. When he found the vessel pounding on the reef and likely to go to pieces McMichael thought of the records. He plugged up the ends of the cylinders, making them completely air tight .",
 Stringing them on ropes, he con structed several life belts. He took to the water and floated ashore with the aid of the belts The remainder of the crew would have been glad of the op- portunity to have had similar life belts, but McMichael had used up all of the records. Members of the crew finally were saved by getting their lifeboat ,s..ct..d hefnre the vessel broke up.

Mckay ped dled the stock of his first corporation from door to door. From the payment of the very first dividend the stock holders considered themselves wealthy men. Everyone who made American made shoes paid tribute to MT. Mckay in the form of royalties.

"A FIGHT FOR MILLIONS"


 This thrilling melodrama, which will be played at Polls tomorrow after noon and evening, is a. genuine triumph in a scenic way, although the comedy and pathos of the story have an inter- est of their own as well. Two sixty foot baggage cars are required for all the magnificent spectacular effects con- tained in the piece. and among the scenes shown are the pa1atial residence of multi millionaire on the Hudson. the pawn shop of Solomon Moses, an exact reproduction of one of New York's most famous recepta cles for stolen goods; the exterior of the Grand Central railroad station in New York, the Park avenue tunnel in which the thrilling railroad accident occurs, Sing Sing prison, showing the death cell. of which everyone has read: the high outer wall from which Tom Manley makes his daring leap for life: the road to the river: the wonderful submarine boat that is shown speeding along at the bottom of the river, in the midst of darting, gliding fishes: and the Island of Nantucket. showing the working of the greatest scientific discovery of the age, the wireless telephone. Prices are 15 and 25 cents for the matinee, and in the evening 25. 35 and 30 cents.

THE FASTEST ROAD
Description of German Line Which
 Has Proved So Speedy.
Roadbed Specially Prepared, and the Cars Driven by a Three-Phase
 Alternating CurrSnt of 13,5OO Volts.

The very recent record made on the Marienfelde-Zosse road in Germany of over 12O miles per hour has renewed the interest in the high-speed electric traction experiments being carried on there, and makes fuller description of he roadbed, over which the car ran and the car which was driven at such terrific speed, of especial value and in- terest at this time.
 The road, which runs between Marien- felde and Zossen, and which Is part of the Prussian railway, is 14.29 miles in length, and is a nearly level track. The 69-pound rails which were used in the first experiments in 1901 were found to De too light and for later experiments H6.1-pound rails were laid upon heavy spruce ties 9 inches from center to center and heavily ballasted with broken basalt The rails were set on each tie In a steel chair, strongly bolted down, and were joined perpendieularly by bev- eled joints seven inches in length, held firmly together by bolts passing hori- zontally through the fish plates, so that the effectiveness of a continuous rail Is practically secured. The old light rails were laid down flat as guard rails, rest ing horizontally on special cast-iron chairs in such way that the flat bot tom f1ange of the rail stands vertically along the inside line of each heavy rail and about two inches distant from the inner edge of it's face. With the excep- tion of one curve of 2,000 yards in ra- dius near it's southern extremity the line is perfectly straight.
 The motor ear used is 72.1S feet in length and weighs 100 tons Of this weight considerably over half is taken

 Even the police have now begun to wrestle with the theory of the auburn haired girls identity. In the patrol mems quarters, on the streets, in their homes, everywhere that two or more of the blue-coated individuals are gath cred together, one can hear them ask ing each other: Have you seen the girl with the auburn ha1r?" Others; of them vary the question with that which stares them from the posters: Has your wife seen the girl with the auburn hair?' The local public, of course, are still pondering over the conundrum, and it is said that few if any have yet succeeded in penetrating the mystery. Meanwhile, all the au- burn-haired girls in town, when they see policeman or one of Detective Rigney's men ogling them, ask them selves: Gan it be me?"
