Why "OId Hickory"

Many explanations have bee., given
Is to the sobriquet old Hickory" as
applied to Andrew Jackson. There IS
an older explanation than that sls.
g.ss'ed by James Parton in his life Of
Jackson-that the title was evolved
from progressive aGjectives, starting
with tough" as applied to his endur.
ancu as Il walker. In the early days
OF -ennessee's statehood jackson,
then major general of volunteers
raised body of troops to put down
formidable rising of the Creek Inll-
ans. During the campaign there was
much suffering from lack of food. AMI
it is related that Jackson received hij
popular sobriGuet of "Old Hickory"
from his subsisting on hickory nuts,
with the purpose of inspiring his m ,n
with renewed fortilude by his exam.

THE FALL OF METECRITES
Scientists Assert Hundreds Drop in
the Course OF Year.

The total of GA meteorites was
known up to 1903. of which there were
1872 irons and only "a stones in the
western hemisphere, and 299 stones
and only 70 irons in the eastern hemi-
sphere. The records show only the
fail of $50 Of these meteorites, dating
back to the fifteenth century. Prof
Berwerth of Vienna. despite this small
number of known specimens. calcu
lates that 900 meteorites must fall to
the earth each year, not counting
shooting stars that disappear in the
atmosphere. and that 81 OF these al
least should come ulder observation.
Prot. Berwerth finds that meteorItes
have been chiefly recorded in civilized
centuries, but that in many instances
tEeJ are more numerous in thinly set,
tied districts. and that they have an
especial affinity for mountainous areas.

Cost of Rural Delivery.

Estimates now being prepared at
the Postofiice Department showing
the probable cost Of maintaining the
rural free delivery service during the
fiscal year i3O5-l90G, and upon which
the appropriations made at the com
iEE session OF Congress Will be based
Indicate that the delivery in operation
at the end of next June will cost about
S20.OO0,0OO year to maintain. 1t is
tated that in order that the service
may be extended in conformity with
the present plans of the department
and what are believed to be the
wishes of both houses of Congress. an
additional sum of $6,OOO.OOO will be
necessary. The present plans contem-
plate gradual and reasonable ad-
vance in the expenditures each year
until the grand total of $4,000 900 is
reached. 1t Is believed that eventually
practically the entire country can be
covered with network of rural routes
in operation for this annual expend-
..ure.
Forty millions of dollars Is a gener-
Gus sum. but in no other way. perhaps.
could the money be more advantage
ously and beneficially expended than
n giving to the rural communities
throughout the country as rapidly as
circumstances make it practicable. an

The troubles of Charles Heinz Of

tain goat which he picked up one day
near his ranch, are now settled. This
fact is a great relief to the goat and
Mr.. Heinz and the Worlds Fair Board
OF Colorado. particularly the latter, as
that institution caused the trouble.
A few months ago Mr.. Heinz discov-
cred a little goat in the mountains
near Creede. The animal had fallen
somehow from the cliffs above and
injured its nose. Mr.. Heinz became
moved with sympathy and took the
animal home to raise as pet.
Time passed and the goat matured
to a size which enabled it to "butt'
into the public eye with considerable
ease. In the course Of time the
Worlds Fair board learned of its ex-
istence and made known it's desire
to send the goat to the exposition. To
this Mr.. Heinz acquiesced. little
dreaming Of the trouble that was to
follow.
The goat was shipped to Denver to
be turned over to the Worlds Fair
board. When it arrived here one OF
the ubiquitous wardens of the game
commissioners office discovered it and
seized Mr.. Goat. The animal was after
ward turned over to the city park au-
thorities and has been there ever
since.
Yesterday Register Mark Woodruff
Of the State Land Board succeeded in
procuring park license for Mr.. heinz
for Antler's park, which the Creede
gentleman owns. The goat therefore

Mr.. Skrivseth gives two reasons

they cured himself.

OF medicine from doctors bat it did

now she is cured.

Vulnerable plans were made for the
creation of turnpikes in the United

success, the Lancashire turnpike il
Pennsylvania, and then came count
less other projects. In 1911 New York
had 1877 chartered roads, with total
length of 4,5O0 miles and the sum re-
quired to build them amounted to ST.
500 900. An era of canal digging and
then of railroad building followed this
period, but the canal promoters and
railroad men had great difficulty in
advancing their schemes. They we're
considered insane when they insisted
that the mountains and plains could
be conquered by these means OF trans.
