NEW COAST RAILROAD.
A Company Projecting Line 30 Cost
s2f.OOO,OOO.

George Crocker, of San Francisco,
has just been reelected a director
and Vice President of the Kansas City,
Mexico and Orient Railroad Company,
which is building a road 1000 miles
long, in an almost direct line from Kan
sas City to Topolobampo, ON the Gulf
of California. 1t is understood that
Croker has invested several millions in
the property, which is backed by the
Stilwell syndicate.
The project is to cost S24, ,000, 900, and
it is the general report in railroad cir
cles that all the necessary funds have
been subscribed. Large quantities of
ties and other lumber are being bought
at Eureka California;, for delivery to
the new line at Topolobampo also
rails from Pittsburg, England and Bel
gium.
The new road will be 500 miles shorter
than any of the four and five existing
routes to the Coast from Kansas City.
Both the Western Union and the Amer
lean Express Company have closed con-
tracts with the company for its tele-
graph and express business. A steamer
service to the Orient is to be main
tanned in connection with the Ham,
burg. American line, which will run a
number of steamers between Topolo-
bambo and Hongkong within the next
two years, or just as soon as the road
is completed.-S. +. Examiner.

MODERN MIRACLES.
Radium, the New Metal, IL q Curo for
Superficial Cancer.

A London dispatch says that the sci
entific sensation of the week has beer
the announcement that tenth part Of
a grain of radium in a glass tube the
size of toothpick, when introduced
into cancer, will kill the cancer in
four exposures of an hour each. A sim.
liar infnitesimal grain of radium will,
it is declared, illuminate room for a
century, and an ounce of radium would
drive all the horse power motors around
he world. The hunt for radium prom.
ises to be the twentieth century equiv.
alent for the search for the philosopher
stone.
DR.. Mackenzie Davidson, the noted
surgeon of Charing Cross Hospital, an.
nounces that he has successfully cured
case of superficial cancer by means OF
radium. DIR. Davidson is treating two
other cases and promises success in
each case. DIR. Davidson said radium
proved successful and effective with
superficial cancer, but cannot say 1t VII
cure internal cancers, as he has not ex
perimented with them.
The case DIR. Davidson cured was
rodent cancer of the nose after unsuc.
cessful treatment with X rays. The
cancer was exposed to radium, four ex'
posures of an hour, each given at an
interval of few days. In three weeks
the diseased part was healing nicely
and in six weeks, with two more
exposures, the cancerous growth disap
peared, not leaving scar to remember
it by. Mr.. Davidson said warningly
1--WE have only treated superficial can
GER with the wonderful radium. What
it will do with internal cancer remainl
to be seen."

GOOD TONIC FOR SWINE.

1t is necessary to keep constantly ac-
cessible to all hogs. both pigs and old
hogs, some material that supplies lime
and salt to aid in BODYBUILDING, as an
appetizer and to remove intestinal
parasites. This mixture should be kept
in strong box protected from rain. and
the quantity and frequency with which
pigs will visit and eat of the mixture
will often be surprising. The following
is the mixture that we use:
Charcoal, one and one-half bushels.
Common salt, four pounds.
Hard wood ashes, ten pounds.
Stacked lime. four pounds.
Fresh water shade in Summer, grain
food when on grass, and dry bed free
from dust, shelter in the Winter, and
above all when confined have the area
sufficiently large SO that it will not be-
come foul with droppings and mud bugs.
These are essential for successful hog.
