Queer Little Railway.

Many unique and interesting things
can be found in the high mountains
that surround the Yellowstone National
Park, but it is doubtful II anything
more odd or interesting can be found
than the little railroad that connects
the towns OF Horr and AdrIch. Mont
While this road was built by the Mon
tana Coal and Iron Company as an ad-
junct to its business, It has exceeded
the original intentions of its projec-
tors. and is now a regular passenger
and freight road. and has been face
tiously named the Rocky Mountain
Limited. The road Is narrow-gauge.
and the motive power is both cable and
electricity. The cable that operates
the first section of the road is 1900
feet in length, and in some places
1t pulls the funny little car W forty
three per cent grade. across trestles
that 1t shakes ones nerves to look at,
and into little power house. the Dew
Drop Inn. that looks like a red speck
on the top of the mountain. From the
inn to Aldrich. the end OF the line,

who patronize It enjoy riding upon the
funniest little trolley car ever built.

Animals Sent by Mail.

In Germany the postoflce will accept
living animals to be carried by mail
and the animal package post" is so
popular that in postofice like Ber-
lin the sendings amount TO 25 day.
Among the common animals so mailed
are dogs, cats and birds. The records
show that monkeys, ferrets, parrots,
owls and even fox have been handled
in Berlin as mail matter In most OF
the large postofiices there are cages
and compartments, so that If an ami
NAL cannot be delivered on account OF
faulty address or for othter reasons, IL
can be cared for until the sender sends
instructions as to disposal. II strange
animal or bird is thus made guest of
the German postal system, the officials
must go so far, under the rules. as to
inquire Of expert biologists Just how to
treat and feed the creature while it is
in their care.

APPLES WERE FREE.
Boylsh Experience Carried Farmer to
Plant Trees for Traveller.

The late X. n. Stoddard used some
times to narrate n striking experience
that befell him during a walking tour
OF New England. During the tour"
lie said, Il came, one August after
noon, to an apple orchard in the out
skirts OF village. and on the fence
/ saw a placard inviting travellers to
enter and partake of the inviting fruit
within. ! ate an apple or two, and
then perceived the owner approaching
from his barn. "IIe was an intelligent
young farmer and | asked him why
he was so generous with his apples.
I'll tell you, sir, he replied. When
my father was boy he had to walk,
one summer. matter of 200 miles,
working out his meals as he travelled
There was certain apple orchard
that he came upon, and an apple that
had fallen from one of the trees lay in
the road. He picked IL up and was
about to eat II. But the farmer had
perceived him. and he ordered him to
put the apple back. My father obey
ed, OF course, but he told the man that
he was mighty mean with his fruit,
and he said he would himself, one day,
plant a hundred apple trees for the
free use OF travellers exclusively. For
tune went well with my father, sir,
and this is the orchard that he planted.
All the fruit here will be free always "

Chinese Cooks.

That the Chinaman Is a cook by ma.
ture Is a commonplace to us; but in
his sudden inspiration for new dishes
lies his weakness, for though in theory
they may be logical enough the prac-
teal outcome is not always acceptable.
For instance, he sees us eating jelly
with cur hare, and concludes that IL
short Of butter he may use green-gage
jam for the poached eggs; or one
morning, he may send up a sweet pud-
ding made of turnips for a pleasant
surprise, and be quite hurt If the suf-
ferers do not applaud his originality.
Does not the foreigner make his jam

mo work on q railroad Is harder

place. To fail TO respond when the
wreck siren blows means discharge

cused. The wages paid men while on
wrecking duty vary with the different
roads. One railroad pays as much as
so cents an hour from the time the
train pulls out 20 the time II is back on
| its siding. This is trcmdous pay for
the wreckers and 1t stimulates them 10

their appointments and to keep new
men out Of them. Frequently the run
TO a wreck is long one and for some
hours there is little to do but lounge
la2ily and enjoy life. On the way back

But why not come out with us some

THE PROTECTION OF SONG BIRDS.
A Three Years' Truce in the War
Waaed by Fashion.

There ought TO be Joy in the fields
and woods and out over the waters
where the sea gull flies If the fcathered
creation were able to understand the
terms Of a compact which has just
been executed in its behalf. The hish
contracting parties are on the one
hand the Millinery Merchants Protec.
tive association. and on the other hand
The Audubon society of the state OF
New York.
The members Of the association have
pledged themselves to refrain from
importing, purchasing or selling gu!ls,
terms, grebes, humming birds and
scng birds. and to exert themselves
to convict and punish all persons who
deal In these birds and to report TO
the authorities all violations OF the
law by importers and dealers in raw
materials. They also agreed that after
January | next tho importation, manu-
fcture. purchase or sale OF the plumage
Of egrets or herons and American pei
leans of any species shall cease.
On the otherhand. the Audubon so
ciety promises to try to prevent any
Illegal interference by game wardens
with the millinery trade. and to re-
frain from aiding the passage of any
leg!sla-o1 that would restrict the i'm
portation, manufacture or sale OF fan
cy feathers obtained from domesti-
Gated fowls or of the plumage of for
eign birds other than those specified
This truce in the war upon song
birds is to last three years. 1t might
be wished that 1t was for a loa ger per-
iod or that It was still more compre
hensiVe in its terms. But II is a great
thing to achieve so much as this. II Is
rarely wise to attempt sweeping re-
forms except on the instalment plan.
It could hardly be expected that the
usages of fashion could be made over
all at once. or that lovely woman. who
folly, could be cured off-hand of the
| particular folly of desiring feathers
| for her headgear. The agreement Just
| concluded does not attempt anything
| like that. 1t leaves for feminine dec.
| Grafton the feathers of domesticated
birds and the plumage of many foreign
birds.
But IL puts an end, for three years
| at least. To the pitiless slaughter Of
song birds. and of the larger and beau
| tifuly feathered birds mentioned, so
far at least as the New York market
and the various markets tributary to

yelrs' truce during which the fea,h-
cred tribes specified will have tine to

out is SO wise and human that the

The Burro In the East.

Although there is little use for the
burro in the eastern part Of the oorT'

fer the children of rich parents to own
white burros as pets. They hitched
them to carts and miniature vehicles,
and for time the burro became very
popular. Carloads of them We're

sold for as puch rs $3.50 and $500. Only
white burros brought this price, how
ever. 1t was not fashionable to own

not last long. The ponies presented

The gradual disappearance of locusts
in Rhodesia and other parts Of South
Africa is attributed by Mr.. j. NJ. Or
pen, a writer on the agriculture Of the
region, to a rapidly growing mould.
The invisible seeds are scattered by the
wind and in favorable weather the
growth attacks and destroys vast
swarms of the insects. Since its discov-
cry during the last locust invasion, the
mould has been regularly distributed
by the department of agriculture. The
disease thus arilfclally spread has been
very effective, but dryness has caused
some failures.
