ANOTHER RAILROAD.

| The latest rumOr on the railroad
checkerboard is to the effect that the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad
has covetous eyes on Boise, and that a
surveying party is now working west

as the objective point and ultimately a
terminus on the coast.

Shakespeare plants.

The above term is new one to us
and Is doubtless new to most of our
readers. The writer was looking over
some pot experiments being conduct
ed at the University OF Illinois by Pro-
lessor Cyril @. Hopkins when he came
to one pot in which was seen an UNI
usual condition of plant growth The
pot contained soil In which was
large amount of alkali, so much so
that plant life could make but little
Roadway in II. While in other pots
nearby where the soil was good the
plants stood two feet high, In this pot
most of the plants were OF splndllng
growth and not over four inches in
height. There were ten plants in
each pot, that the results might be bet.
| ter compared
But in this pot was one plant that
lowered above its fellows. Professor
Hopkins remarked: "That Is what
the boys call a Shakespeare plant"
The writer measured II and found the
height to be 2S inches. Moreover Il
had stooled out and had three large
stalks in addition to the principal
stalk: The volume OF the plant was at
least thirty times that of the average
plants in the pots.
Now as to the cause OF such a de.
velopment In an unfriendly medium
Professor Hopkins did not wish to ex
press his opinion as to the cause, for
the true scientist does not like to get
the reputation of being a guesser. He
wishes to send out to the public only
opinions that have a strong array OF
facts behind them, and in that he IL
right. But the ordinary mortal can
not help reaching for possible inter
pretations OF unusual things.
II may be that this plant has the
power to resist alkali to such a degree
that It is able to develop in spite OF It
II this Is so, its seed may be saved
and be planted in subsequent years &c
get variety of wheat that cares moth
ing for alkali. The probability is thai
there is much in this plant that is Of
value to the world, for such plants
have already been found among Other
economic plants, such as cotton. We
have no doubt that the seed of this
plant will be saved and further expert
ments made with Il.
There are, OF course. other possible
though not probable, explanations
One is that the alkali is not evenly
distributed in the soil In which tn,
plant Is growing and another is thai
the water used in the pot has caused
more teaching out of the alkali in on,

up the fore rigging, and do II quick,

And the Knight Commander OF the
Bath came down as he was bid, and
having cast perplexed eye over
Simpson and Virgins, who sniggered
at him with amused and savage con
tempt, he went forward in a hurry.
"This is a nightmare" he said;

When he had overhauled the gear
at the fore-and being a real seaman,
he did II well--Wiggins called him
down TO work on deck, and he found
himself among his new mates. But
now they were all aware that he be-
lieved he was an admiral, and that he
had spoken to Simpson In a way that
no man had ever done. That was so
much 20 his credit, but since he was
mad he was nj object of jeers. They
jeered him accordingly and when they
we're at breakfast the trouble began.

And the resurgent old Adam in

the opportunity by kicking him vio-

And though he could not believe he
was doing 1t, Sir Richard Dunn
crawled aloft and did what he was
told. He was stunned by his fall and
the hammering he had received, but
that was nothing to the utter and
complete change of air that he ex-
perienced. AS he overhauled the gear
he wondered If he was an admiral at
ALL III he was, how came he on the
MISUNDERSTANDING Of 4 merchant
ship? If he wasn't, why was he sur
prised at being there? He tried to
recall the last day of his life as an
admiral, and was dimly conscious of a
late evening somewhere in San Fran
cisco at which he had certainly taken
his share of liquor. A vague sense of
having been in row oppressed him,
but he could recall nothing till he had
been yanked out of his bunk by that
truculent devil of mate then patrol
ing the poop.

miral.
Now, then, look alive there, you
dead crawling cat said Mr.. Simpson,
"or Ill come up and boot you off the
yard. Do you hear met"
Yes, sir" said the admiral quickly,
and as he put a new housing on the
clip-hooks OF the mizzen-topmast-stay
sail-tripping-line block, he murmured,
Il suppose never was an admiral

second greaser. Sage he's an I'D

st. Paul, but this is the first time I've
run against an admiral before the

Does he look like 1t, sir?" asked
Virgins laughing.
HE looks the toughest case you
