Joughins, mechanical superintendent of
the Santa Fe coast lines, who has been
in the city the past couple of days. said
this afternoon that the appointment OF
a man to succeed Master Mechanic r
T. Barnes, of the local shops. would be
made within the next two weeks. but
whether he viii come from the east or
from the west, he could not say
The reporter suggested Master Ne
chanic Drury of Winslow, but Mr.
Barnes said that Mr. Drury was too
comfortable at Winslow to move Mr.
Drury came west to Winslow on ac-
count of Mrs. Drury's health She has
improved under the climatical condi-
ton of the desert town. and it is
thought that the Drurys will stay there
as long as the present condition ex-
lists.
The Albuquerque shops are among
the most important shops on the sys-
tenn of the Santa Fe and the man who
follows Mr.. Barnes must be the best
that can be secured Foreman Essex

Mr. Joughins said that he found the
local shops pretty well up with their
work-in much better shape than the
shops at san Belns rdino. The San

BUILD RS OWN LINE.
Said to Be the Purpose of the Frisco
Regarding New Orleans.

New York. June 9.-Despite the very
positive statements to the contrary
during the past two weeks, it is more
than likely that the St. Louis & San
Francisco win build its own extension
to New Orleans. instead of entering into
a trackage agreement with the Mis-
souri, Pacific. 1t has been said that the
Frisco would enter into a long term
alliance with the Gould roads and the
illinois Central by which it would use
their tracks to New Orleans, thus OBJ
Waiting the necessity Of building its own
line on the bank of the Mississippi This
would be beneficial to all parties con-
cerned 1t would save the Frisco the
expense of building the new line and It
would eliminate from the field a rival
line. which none of the present New
Orleans lines are anxious to see built.
Now it is said in we'll informed quar-
tiers that the negotiations looking in
that agreement have fallen through,
that there is little likelihood of their
being renewed, and that the Frisco will
build its own line. This opens up the
interesting question as to how the
building of the line viii be financed.
The Frisco. in any event, win share ter
mfnals at New Orleans with the South
ern railway.

she thought it necessary to call a
physician. She had formed a dis
like for the family physician, so
her father suggested several others
and finally said he would call in
the physician with the homeopath-
ic case who passed the house every
day. They kept a sharp lookout
for him, and when he came along
he was called in. The young lady
modestly showed him the disabled

Winnemucca Standard.
Recently a corps of surveyors
started out from Eureka to run a
line south from that place with To-
nopah as their objective point, tn e
officials of the Eureka and Palisade
road having t~elegraphcd instruc-
tions to furnish the outfit with ST.
600. Since then the surveyors
in the field have been reinforced.
From Tonopah, we are informed,
the line will run to Mojave. The
Southern Pacific Company has
seen the Importance of running a
line through this section Of the
country, rich in mineral resources
and Of heading off the proposed
Gould line from Daggett to Ton
opah.
From Palisade to Mojave the
distance is 4l5 miles by section
lines, about one-half the distance
over the present route.
1t has leaked out that the Ken
lucky corporation has the Eureka

a part of the proposed route.

Promoting nines a
Legitimate Bust
ness.

1t takes money to mine and it
requires ability to raise the money.
The business of raising money to
develop promising prospects is
that of the promoter; promoting
mining enterprises is IA necessary
and legitimate business, if conduct
ed along the proper lines. There
are fake promoters and plenty of
them, but this does not necessarily
denounce all promoters as fakcrs.
There is a great temptation to men
handling large sums of other peo-
pies money in the development
of mines, but a large number of
honest men, who have been in the
business for years, would no SOON
er think of Incorporating these
funds than they would of burglar
izing a house. Honest promoters
conduct their business as a mer-
chant does his. They court intelli-
gent and business investigation of
their standing and responsibility.
Shrewd and intelligent investors
before entrusting their funds with
comparative strangers, make in
quiries through banks or other re-
pntable references. It is the gull
libility of the investing classes
that encourages fake promoters
and enables them to thrive.-Hen-
son Greek Bulletin.
