Berlin,s Dust Catcher..

An Investigation IS going on in Ber-

streets causing sickness. says the San

round boxes about one and half feet

feet above the ground. The boxes are

closed, and the dust collected is anal

successes, OF the interesting people thel

Fiske wrote to Maynard in one of'hii
letters:
"our scheme ID going to be a greai
success; and when our Lives and Let
ters' are ready to come out, they Will
have the added charm Of novelty. NO
body writes letters nowadays. When VIZ
pass away, we shall be the only people
dying with literary remains worth en-
balming. Even II we do nothing note
worthy In the meantime, we shall al
least have accomplished the remains.'
Over a year had passed without the
two correspondents meeting or anything
occurring to undeceive them in regard
to their mutual misunderstanding, when
one afternoon a grinning ONCE boy
brought In card to Fiske as he sat at
his desk in the Symposium ONCE. On
the card was written In the well-known
hand, Maynard Barlow"
"For Miss Fiske," snickered the boy,
Great Scott" murmured Fiske.
TITS come at last! hope he's great
deal bigger than am. It'll be over
sooner" and he went out to meet the
man who thought he had been writing
to q girl.
But the man was a girl
And the girl was a man.
II the girl had been old and ugly,
Fiske would have thought she was love-
ly, 90 great was his relief. But the girl
was young and pretty and stylish, too
That he saw at a glance. OF her intel
lectual equipment and her sympathetic
nature>he had stack Of evidence filed
under lock and key in his private
drawer.
II the man had been old and ugly.
Maynard would have thought he was
horrid; and she might have said or done
or thought great many disagreeable
things that never even occurred TO her.
She took him all in with satisfied look,
as he stammered forth his apologies and
his explanations, and she was glad the
assistant editor was man.
Don't say another word" she inter-
rupted, with an amused smile. "It's all
right; dare say can bear 1t II you can"
And khax, hora u vorv wall
There's one thing that bothers
me, though" said Maynard, as they
parted that evening after the theater,
have you got all my letters tied up
with pink ribbons, as you wrote?"
NO." replied Fiske; II will confess;
they're all fastened with rubber bands"
"I'm so glad!" cried Maynard. Good
night"
Maynard staid nearly month in the
city, and she and Fiske managed to
spend a good deal of the time in each
others company--"readjusting their re-
lations," they called 1t. By the time
Maynard went home the relations wers
pretty well readjusted.
'"Dear me-" she sighed, one evening
toward the end Of her visit, some Of the
most delightful experiences in our lives

Whether either or both Of them will
ever become famous, It is too early yet

their genius will never be perpetuated

WAYSIDE NOTES
Ia Dura to Alamos. An Interesting Ride Over an "Antlgua" Road.

Despite an urgent invitation to remain at La Dura with my friend Don Pedro Schabarum until after Christmas-an invitation fortified with guaranty of the very best of Christmas cheer (wine, oysters, champagne, turkey, beer. etc., ao lib) l felt that if hoped to carry out all the objects 1 had in view when starting three weeks before, and returning to Nogales by the middle of January as promised, that l must be on the road toward Alamos at the earliest possible time; 50 upon the morning of Fri day, December 23d, took my de- parture from La Concentration.
 The objective point for the jour- ney of the first day was Moyas, a town upon Rio Chico eight leagues distant.
 The route led out of La Concen- tracion to the southeast, the trail following up a big canon, over a ridge, and down into the valley of the Rio Chico Little River) at a point about mile below the town of the same name.
 The town of Rio Chico Is about two leagues from La Concentra- cion. It is a small place with not more than 400 population. The town is built around the usual plaza, with a small church in a decayed condition upon one side.
 A very short stop was made.
 The Rio Chico is similar to all the other Sierra Madre rivers l have visited-in places precipit- ious caTion, which occasionally widens out into fertile valley oi few hundred acres, under cultlva- tion. It is in such a valley that is situated the town named from the river.
 The formation cut by the river is Q conglomerate but to the east ward brick red porphyry belt Hanks the conglomerate all the way, in places the almost carmine hills and peaks closely approach the river. Upon the west side the canon walls and hills above are all conglomerate. Two leagues above Rio Chico is the Rancho Carrizal--a small hamlet upon a mesa overlooking a beautiful val ley.
 Shortly after leaving Carrizal there was met burro train laden with oranges from Nuri, point farther up the river, widely noted for the excellence of it's fruits.
 All along the route wherever the cafon widened into valley the farmers were blowing and planting corn, and the young wheat IS al ready above the ground.
 Having the entire day to go only eight leagues progress was made leisurely and Movas was reached just before sunset.
 It is an old town of about 1,00C people. The old church Is in a sad state of dilapidation. Eight years ago it was seriously damaged by an earthquake, and since aban- doned.
