A Turtle Farm.

Martha Day runs a turtle farm of twenty acres in New Jersey An uncle after giving $2O0,0O0 to male relatives She bui!t a small board shanty on her farm. Then with a pickaX and spade she formed square beds that could be flooded with water from a neighboring stream. She inclosed these beds so that the tur- ties could not escape Then she bought turtles from all the hoys in the neighbor- hood. She worked two years before her farm began to be profitable. Now she is said to have an income of &. 600 per year. She sends her turtles to the New York and Philadelphia markets and gets a good price for them.

A San Francisco woman is suing for divorce. one of tho grounds being that her husband prefers his dogs and gun to her. The complaint may be true. and there may be good reason why it is so. And on, the other hand we have seen wo- men who apparently preferred dogs to husband and children. The world has some queer people in it. and probably that Is best.

The population ot Montana is only a little large than the otalincrease in Italian population; that of Arizona is less than the Russian immigration. If all the Austro- Hungal ian immigrants had set tied in Idaho they would have more than doubled the popula- tion of the state Nevada would be more than twice as thickly inhabited as at present if it had received all the Germans.

that our wealthy men who are
in a position to disregard the
cares of providing for the future
of the family are prone to forget
all else and engage in an ever

wealth. The pursuit has become
a game, and it is often the excite

modern form cannot be distin-
guished from the most evil forms
of gambling, that lures on to

grade the player and exert the
most baleful influence on the

ROAD TO Bt COMPLETED IN tlGnTFfN
MONTHS.
Rapld Work On the Proposed Westera Pscifl
Railroad.

The San Francisco Chronicle
is convinced that George Gould
is back of the Western Pacific,
and in a quite lengthy editorial
reasons as follows:
On all past occasions when he
was interviewed on the subject,
Gould either denied the relation
ship with either enterprise point
blank or left the interviewer in a
maze of doubt. Still rumor per-
sistently associated his name
with both railways. particularly
with the Western Pacific. How
ever, during a recent visit to
Wheeling, w. Va, to inspect his
Wabash interests there, Gould
either incauciously or intention
ally admitted practically every
thing that rumor had heretofore
asserted, by revealing his trans
continental railroad plans to an
interviewer to the following ex-
tent.
1--WE will have our road COM
pleted and IN operation from
tide water to tide water within
eighteen months" And without
naming the Western Pacific, he
practically describes it when he
says: Zone good thing about
the railroad will be it's lack OF
dangerous or even heavy grades.
None will be so hard as to pre-
want the hauling of seventy-fve
cars in a single head train, and
this is saying a good deal"
The first statement tallies ex-
actly with the declaration OF
President Barnett of the West
ern Pacific, when he was seeking
terminal facilities at Oakland
and in San Francisco last Win
ter, namely that the road would
be built and in operation within
two wears from that time The
second statement fits the sur
veyed route of the Western
Pacifc, which enters the Salt
Lake basin from this pass in the
Sierras, ascending from both
sides on comparatively light and
easy grades.
Now that the Western Pacific
has obtained a clear right Of
way from San Francisco bay to
the Nevada line via Beckwith
Pass, Mr.. Gould has undoubt.
edly reached the conclusion that
further concealmeut of his rela-
tionship to the enterprise is un,
necessary. He is doubtless max,
ing this admission because oppo.
sition to his plans from any
quarter would be foolish and
futile. The enterprise is now
standing on solid ground. All
of the preliminaries have been
vigorously pushed. Terminal
facilities on both sides of the
bay have been secured and little

its allied organs of
digestion and nutri-
ton are diseased.
It is mot a question
with him of winning
in the race for busi-
ness but of simply
keeping up under
any circumstances.
Whenever disease
affects the stomach
it is affecting also
the blood and the
health Of every or
gan of the body.
For blood is only
food converted into
nutrition and rutri-
ton is the life of
the body and every
organ OF 1t.

the EVIL EFFECTS or UNEMPLOYED
WEALTH,

Ohavalling Wealth" in the cur
rent number of the Century Mag
azine which conveys some whole
some lessons that cannot be too
carefully studied and pondered
by the young citizen of the Unit
ed States. 1.-The acquisition of
property" he says, "for which
the possessor has no use is fast
becoming the dominant passion
Of the age" This characterize
tion applies to the rich and the
prosperous who have become
possessed of the gambling mania
to such an extent that it actual
ly appears to them, and to the
country, too, as if it were a
meritorious thing in.itself merely
to pile up money for the moneys
sake. or for the pleasure of the
game" without regard to the
uses to which the money is to be
put.
The essayist illustrates his
point by reference to a youth of
good impulses who was born to
the possession of $50, 900 a year.
He was well educated, ambiti-
Gus, of undoubted ability and
had fine family traditions of
generals, statesmen and other
ancestors who had rendered
great service to the Republic.
When this young man looked
about him after a successful col.
lege career for a suitable employ
ment, he allied himself as clerk
and drudge with a mere money
making institution, with the
avowed purpose of piling up mil
lions and of becoming a money
bags" or magnate. The dollar
had been worshipped 50 sedul-
ously and openly by those who
surrounded him that he had for
gotten that money is means
a very useful means, to be sure
to other ends, but still a means,
or an opportunity.
Here was a young man in the
most enviable position that a
man with noble aims could pos
sibly find himself-possessing ed
ucation, ample wealth, a good
name-but without thought of
following the ideals which he
must have imbibed with col
lege education and as inheritor
of a name honorable in the an
nails OF his country; he sub
merged himself in the greedy
throng which forget their coun-
try, their own civic duties, all
the higher aims, and become a
mere money grubber for the sake
of money which he did not need
and which will, so far from en-
nobling him. drag him down.
And in the locality where this
step was taken there was very
general admiration for the young
mans act. This commendation,
the essayist thinks, illustrates
the corruption of the ideals
caused by the very general wor-
ship Of wealth and the accumu-
llation of vast wealth as prac-
tically the only desirable object
in life. Mr.. Gregory aptly says;
"Just where honorable indus
trv ends and avaricious piling
no of treasure begins no one can
take it upon himself to say.
The spirit, however, that impels
a Young man to sacrifice all the
nobler aims of life in order to
turn a liberal competence into
wealth too great to be spent

THE TALK OF THE DAY.

In a suit relating to brewery prop erty, reported in Case and Comment" an eminent and very dignified counsel Tor was one day reading to the court some manuscript affidavits which were not over legible, and by mistake read the word mash as wash" Counsel on the other side, who was small of stature and polite in manner, but keen in intellect and frequently sarcastic, was immediately on his feet, and with a somewhat irritating difference of man ner. begging his oponent's pardon, etc, asked liberty to suggest that the word which the eminent counsellor read wash was really mash" Somewhat nettled, the counsellor thus corrected thanked him for the information, and added that he was not himself very familiar with the terms used in the brewery business as he had never spent much of his time in a place of that kind. Are we to understand. then" said his opponent in his suavest manner, that the eminent counsellor wishes us to infer that his early days were spent in a laundry?''

BISBEE MANS BREAK
Celebrated the Fourth by nurderouS
 Assault on Wife.

The first celebration arrest was made Friday morning about o'clock by Marshal Henderson, and Deputy White. says the Bisbee Miner. They locked up J. N. Jones for a murderous assault made upon his wife.
 Jones was under the influence of liquor and began early to quarrel with his wife. She made an effort to quiet him, but he only grew the more angry Grabbing up a big knife Jones started for his wife In some manner their little daughter got between them and was seriously cut on the hand.
 The sharp knife cut an ugly gash on the back of the hand between two fin- gers. Seeing what he had done Jones desisted. but kept on threatening to do his wife injury unless she left the house at once.
 Word was sent down town to send up an officer as soon as possible. Mar shal Henderson was notified and lost no time getting to the Jones house.
 This offense will probably go hard with Jones as he is now under peace bond of $100 to keep the peace for six months. The first charge was preferred by his wife, who stated that he abused her shamefully.
