The Western Pa
cific Road.

The San Francisco Bulletin of Decem-
ber 5th, contains map Of the Western
Pacific Railroad which is declared to be
the first authentic map OF the route as
accepted by the parties behind the rail
road which has been published.
II the map agreed in any respect with
the decription accompanying it, we
would have less doubts OF its authentic
ity. The map indicates that the road
will come down Spanish Springs valley
to the mouth Of the canyon aud cross
the Southern Pacific at Wadsworth, then
continuing 10 more or less straight
line across the state to Salt Lake.
The description, however, locates the
line on the opposite side Of the Southern
Pacific between Beckwith Pass and
Winnemucca. The description has the
line passing through Elko and Wells
while the map carries it through near
Austin and Cherry Creek. just which
is authentic" the map or the descrip
ton is good material for guessing con
test.

Two Measures OF
Great Import
df1Ce.

Senator Stewart has presented to the
United States Senate concurrent res
olution of the legislature Of Nevada
relative to the development work on
mining claims and on land containing
minerals, which was referred to the
Committee on Mines and Mining, OF
which Senator Stewart is member.
The main points are; Congress is re-
quested to enact laws providing for the
forfeiture of the locations OF those hold
ers or claimants who fail to do the as
sessment work required by the statutes
OF the United States to be done yearly
on the claims held by such claimants.
Congress is requested to open all lands
held under patents other than agricul-
tural patents to development by miners,
such miners to pay for actual damage
done by them and upon such lands;
Congress to more clearly define the
powers OF the various States to enact
legislation concerning the location Of
mining claims, preliminary or location
work, development work, and forfeiture
resulting from failure to do such work;
Congress to enact legislation Of a ma
ture to encourage actual development Of
mining lands and to discourage the hold
ing Of such lands merely in the hope Of
sale, more or less remote; to place some
limit upon the number OF claims one
locator may hold on one load or vein or
in one mining district, and incorpora-
ting INTO mining patents condition that
land held under such patents shall be
developed to some extent or forfeited to
the Government of the United States.
Mr.. Stewart also presented joint res
olution relative to the abolishment Of
the limits Of the Pyramid Like Reservs.
tion, which was referred to the Com
mittee OF Indian Affairs Of which Senator
Stewart is chairman.
The main points are: To abolish the
limits Of Pyramid Lake Reservation in
townships numbers 20 q north establish
ing the south boundary at the south line
of number % north, thereby removing
the cloud upon titles granted by the
Government to the ranches along the
river, and to do 30 at the earliest day
practicable. The land named is now
under the national irrigation scheme but
action by congress is necessary. and we
have no doubt Senator Stewart will ac-
complish the matter with his usual
vigor.

Cost of Clothes in Russia.

Barring the inha bitants of the earth who wear practically no clothes at all, the costume of the average Russian costs the least. Ten rubles, or bout $7.50, will clothe male citizen of the czar's realm, while the woman's cos- tune will cost less than three dollars. The mans costume is coarse cotton trousers tucked into boots of half- dressed leather, cotton shirt and a sheep-skin coat. A coarse Camlet cafEen bound around with a sash, com. pIetes the dress. The women wear sarafan, or long petticoat, which is held up by straps running over the shoulders, a chemise with sleeves to the elbow, kerchief over the head, and 8 pair of shoes. Stockings are sometimes worn, but more frequently the legs and feet are bound with strips of cotton or linen cloth. For outdoor wear quilted jacket or long cloak is added. The simplicity and cheapness of dress is not due to any lack of van- ity, but to the poor circumstances un- der which the majority of the Russians hve.-Detroit Free Press.

A Biological Farm.

An effort is being made to esta bIish a new kind of scientific farm at Woods Hole. It is to be known as "biolog- ical farm," and the purpose is for ex- perimental investigation of heredity, variation and evolution among living organisms, as we'll as for study of the life histories, habits, instincts and in- telHgence of animals. The advocates of the scheme point to the fact that many of the problems involved in such studies and investigations cannot be settled in laboratory. It is necessary that the living forms be observed amid natural conditions, and without inter. ruption from year to year. The pro- posed Harm" would consist not only of fields and woods, but also of ponds, of reach of the sea, and of islands. Many leading evolutionists have long urged the foundation of such an estab- hshment, but hitherto nothing of the kind has been done except by individ- ual effort on 8 small scale.-Youth's s Companion. -:

Panama Senators Want Hay-Herran
 Treaty Approved.


 Treaty Approved.
 PANAMA, June 3.-Jose Augustin Arango, the senior senator for Pan- anna; Mandel Amador Guerrero, Man uel Espinosa, Batista Frederick Boyd and other prominent men representa- tive of all the interests of the isthmus have. sent the following cablegram to President Marroquin at Bogota:
 ''Colombians resident and born in the isthmus, without, distinction of polit- ical party, consider of vital importance the approval of the Hay-Herran treaty, which eonsults present and future in- terests and aspirations.
 The nonapproval of the treaty when endeavors are being made to adopt the Nicaraguan route is equivalent to de- cree of dednitive ruin to the isthmus, causing irreparable evil and giving or igin to antipatriotic sentiments"
 It seems that the people of the isth- mus have at last awakened to the fact that unless powerful influences are ex- erted the enemies of the canal will win the battle.
