lights on Festival Hall and the foun-
tains and cascades is changed to other
hues, now red, now blue, now violet,
now a varlegated brilliance including
all the colois Of the prism, and the
waters of the leaping fountains and
and plunging cascades blossom like
flowers. and the greensward on the
slopes of Art Hill becomes plain of
fire, and the flower beds take on fan
tastic hues. The lights change and
change in bewildering variety.
Then, from the great German castle
on the mill, peal forth the chimes of
deep-toned bells, resonant and clear,
and the susceptible young damsel in
the Venetian gondola under the bridge
goes into ordinations of ecstasy; but
the soberer minded folk merely remove
their hats and stand silent, awed by
the magnificent expression of the gen.
ius OF man working with the wonders
that God has wrought.

FREICHTS CAUSE DELAYS.
Old Railroad Man Tells Few Things About
Tricks Of the Trade.

stsShS VI utC tTduC
In discussing the recent billiards in
the middle west and the consequent
delay to trains, an old engineer yester-
day said: It's freights. When there
is no snow to speak Of, but just in
tense cold, your passenger train could
get along fairly we'll. There might be
times when one couldn't make sche.
dulc, but the delays would be small, if,
it weren't for the cussed freights.
They stop so often that they can't
keep warm. A few minutes stand will
either freeze or harden the oil in the
boxes of the journals and then there's
no starting. She simply won't move.
Why, I've known 'em to get part way
through a switch and stick. There she
lie, half on the main and half on the
side.' Oils froze solid and there's no
moving her. A passenger comes along
and then there's delay, It's things
like that that destroy religion. When
one OF these clumsy freights starts out
in cold weather she's simply got to
keep moving, if the other trains are to
be kept on time"
Delays in getting up steam on the
engine itself are frequent. Everything
is cold about the locomotive. The
mechanism does not work we'll under
such weather conditions. Coal also is
a factor, and if fireman chances to
shovel in poor coal on very cold day,
the resulting fire will not be noted for
its heat.

Sixteen Below Zero.

An Eastern editor gets funny and
tells how he felt in the recent cold
wave. He says: "Too cold to sleep,
to cold to lie; too cold to laugh, too
cold to cry; too cold to stand, too cold
to sit; too cold to work, too cold to
quit; too cold to ride, too cold to
walk; too cold to read. too cold to
talk; too cold to eat, too cold to drink
too cold to write, too cold to think
too cold to scold, too cold to tease
too cold to cough, too cold to sneeze;
too cold to play. too cold to sing; too
cold to do most anything. But no,
alas, I've stopped too quick, IFS not
too cold for me to kick"

SENT ALL THE NEWS.
Johns Wife Tells Him What an Interesting
Trip He Had.

Knowing the aversion of her hus-
band to letter writing, the wife of a
Chicagoan thus admonished him on
his departure on a recent Eastern trip !:
"Now, John, as neither l nor the
children can accompany you, you
must be eyes and ears for ns. and drop
us an occasional postal card, telling us
anything OF interest you may see and
hear. Don't forget, will your
The husband promised and took his
departure. The next morning but one
his wife received a postal card con.
tanning the following message: Dear
Wife: 1 reached Pittsburg all right.
Yours aff."
Though disappointed, she excused
the brevity of the communication on
the ground that her husband was
doubtless pressed for time. Two days
later, however, another card arrived,
bearing the startling announcements:
Here / am in New York. Yours
ever" Still later came another: II
am indeed in New York. Yours-"
The wife swallowed her disappoint.
ment and, being good at retaliation
seized her pen and wrote: "Dear
husband, the children and / are in
Chicago. Yours"
A few days later she wrote again ::
We are still in Chicago"
In her next communication she
grew a little more enthusiastic. She
wrote:
"Dear husband: Here we are in
Chicago. 1 repeat it sir. We are in
Chicago.
"P. S.-We are, indeed"
In due time John reached home,
and fearing perhaps that his poor wife
was afflicted with some sort of demen-
tia, FASTENED to ask the meaning Of
her strange messages. For answer
she slipped into his hand his own
three postal cards.
"What is sauce for the goose is
sauce for the gander," she said.
1t is to be hoped that John profited
by the lesson.

not many years back a company, well
provided with funds, made extensive
excavations in the Pedregal, near Co
yoacan, on a spot indicated by tradi-
ton. A series of subterranean cham
bers was found, but no golden sun.
Both in Mexico and Peru gold was
hidden away from the greedy con-
quistadores by the Indians, who cher
ished the hope of making a successful
rising against their conquerors. That
hope has long died away, though much
of the hatred for the race of the con.
quistadores remains in the breast OF
the aborigine.
1t Is quite probable that some fine
day much of Montezuma's hidden
treasure may be found here, by a
lucky hit. Perhaps it is concealed In
an idol cave in the southwestern part
of the Sierra surrounding this valley
a cave of which stories have been
told among the Indians. Whence has
come the gold that Indians living in
these mountains, so close to the city.
have brought here and sold to their
legal representative? There Is a mys-
terry in all this, and a greater mystery
in the whereabouts of Montezuma's
treasure which remains untouched
