Central railway at Mount Wolf, six
miles north of this city. All the men

The HIcchanIsm Of the salmon,

A salmon is marvelously adapted to
the conditions amid which It lives. It
can cleave through tons Of water fall
ing perpendicularly yet its fins and
Its tail, which seem TO hold the pro-
polling power, are not less fragile than
the wings Of a bat. 1t can be killed
without injury to its contour, and a
plaster cast Of it can be made. yet no
mechanism can devise an instrument
which will lie in the water and move
as 1t does. and no theory Of dynamics
has explained either its pastures. in
the water or its motion. Simple in
Its organization rs IT seems. Its move
ments are as inimltable by any human
continuance as the flight Of bird has

operators on the lines Of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific, num-

contemplating a general strike for
shorter hours and higher wages. Their
general committee has been in session
several days in st. Paul, and the ma
tional president of the Order~of Rail-
way TelegTaphers,' Fl. B. Perham, is
expected to arrive some time this week
to take up negotiations. Demands
were made last year and refused, but
this line the operators seem deternin-
ed, and If granted the support of the
national Organization and its $150,OOO
strike fund, they are likely to insist on
their demands to the extent of a gen.
