The Check Was N. G.

VIM. Reel, manager of Geo.
Gumb's saloon, is mourning
the loss of 1915 this afternoon.
Just after dinner a fellow
dropped into the saloon and
bought a couple Of drinks, and
presented a check signed by
Mr.. Hatcher. AS he looked
like a working man who had
just got his pay Mr.. Reel cashed
the check. When he got to
thinking the matter over he
concluded that perhaps the
check was no good, so he went
to the bank and found that the
check was a fraud. VIM. is
still looking for the man who
presented the check.

MAKING 6f E.a;l )
Delicate Engineering Required
/ Is Make Safe kidding.

! Worlds Work: Mr.. George
Pullman once said, when asked
the secret of easy riding, that !.
the secrets are so many that no
one can keep them. This is tire
but the easing of curves is ore
of them.
I Curves, no matter how slight
have always been laid as ar,,s
of tru, circles. The outer rail
is raised according to the sharp
ness of the curve and the esti-
mated speed of the trains that
are to round it. A mile-a-
minute train on a one degree
curve needs an outer rail five
inches higher than the inner
rail; q slower train a lower ele-
walton. 1t is clear from this
explanation that a train going
faster than the maximum for
which the track is prepared
would shoot off the rails. Con-
lversely, a slower train than the
lone provided for would grind
the fanges off its wheels Any
road must strike a service
able average for trains of vary
ing speeds, and engineers must
nurse their locomotives around
/ the curves as close to it as pos
sible. That puts an inevitable
check on high speeds. The En-
pire State express once made a
burst for two miles at the rate
| of 102 miles an hour on a
straightway section of track.
A heavy curve would have shot
the engine at that top speed a
quarter of a mile cross country.
On most roads, however, sixty
miles an hour is quite safe,
though very costly.
To permit such speed the en-
gineers of the last few years,
in relaying tracks, instead of
starting a true circle curve with
the sudden lift of the outer rail
that causes the jolt and lurch
that travellers know, have laid
a light parabolie curve from q
point a hundred yards lack on
the straight track, and have
elevated the outer rail imper-
ceptibly along that curve to the
maximum. The result of the
device-in practice quite new
has been the humiliation of
curves as regards a passengers
senses. With eyes shut he can
not tell wheather the track is
straight or curved.

Five Stock Exposi-
liSn, Chicago, 1908.

The entire west is interested
inthe occasion of the Live Stock
Exposition from the fact that
such an enterprise is in the
nature of a fitting recognition
of the Importance of the work
done by the breeder and feeder
of live stock and gives we'll de-
served encouragement to their
efforts.
The international Exposition
has become a permanent feat
ure in the progress of live stock
exhibits and is, in the language
of Prof. Liggett, Dean of the
Minnesota Agricultural Expert
ment Station, "The great tri-
bunal where the leading herds
and hocks are brought for final
judgment. 1t is the annual
roundup for breed improve
ment, where the interested
breeder can mark the progress.
and the changes made in the
public standard of such breeds.
1t is more than passing inter-
est and more Importance than
other shows for the reason that
it is the only place where all
prominent breeders meet in the
show ring"
The attendance from the
west has in the past been ex-
cellent, but the management
anticipate for 1903 an outpour
of stock men and others inter-
ested in the improvement of
western herds such as has
never been equalled in the
history of the exposition.

Letter flc the West

Hillyard, Wash, Nov. 8, '03.
Friend Bob: i had intended
writing again today, but for
the life of me couldn't think of
anything to write. Bro. Roger
and | had concluded to stay
strictly at home and behave
ourselves today, we had at
tended church three Sundays
in succession, but the dearth of
news, and the children getting
noisy, we donned our hats and
started for a short jaunt Of
four miles, to see the new sash
and blind factory in course Of
construction between this place
and Spokane.
We found the place all right,
with the frame of one of the
main buildings up and sheeted.
The building is 7OxS4 feet. The
center, twenty-four feet wide,
is twenty feet high, with a
thirty-foot wing on either side,
sixteen feet high. tits a heavy
building, intended for machin-
cry THERE'S also the frame of
another building, 16x128 feet,
evidently intended for a stor-
age room. Judging by the
amount of lumber stacked up
around there, they must think
of building a town. When com
pleted and in full operation
they expect to employ 200 men.
This will be a great benefit to
Hillyard as we'll as Spokane.
The plant is located directly on
1.-THE line of the S. II. & N. r. r.,
which road will build them a
spur track. At present car
loads of lumber are sent out
from Spokane and unloaded
from the main line.
From this point you have a
good view of the eastern part
of the city, the river, and the
valley for miles; south of the
river are the prairies, hills and
mountains; away to the east
are some of the peaks of Idaho,
and it looks from here as if the
Spokane Valley came to an
abrupt terminus at the foot of
these mountains. From here
we saw two separate rain storms
in progress at the same time,
and not more than five miles
apart. One was up on the side
of a mountain and the other
coming down a valley. Neither
one looked to be more than a
half mile in diameter, but it
was raining good and plenty.
One feature of the rains here
is that it seldom comes with a
wind. The clouds fool around,
and when they strike a noun
tain or dip low enough to
touch the ground, they just let
go and rain.
There is very little wind
here. Sometimes for a week
there will hardly be wind
enough to blow a mosquito off
the end of your nose, especially
if the weather is cold; but it is
windier since Scott Baker came.
Harvey Miller is now running
the big planer in the G. N. R. R.
.lshop at Hillyard, and it keeps
him as busy as a shote in po-
tato field; no visiting. They
have two crews for the planer
now and run it night and day.
All the timbers and lumber
used about the shops pass
through this machine. All the
machines are now running nine
and one-half hours per day,
z a. m. to IL M, 1890 p. m. to
5 p. M, and the same in the re-
pair yards, half hour for din
ner. The coach men, way-car
men and bench men work eight
hours, z a. m. to IL, | p. m. to 4
p. M, but we hope to soon be
