Canada's New Railroad Will Cost SI.5,-
 100000.

100000.
 Success Magazine.
 The length of the main line-the new transcontinental railroad in Canada from Moncton to Port Simpson. Is esti- mated at $500 miles, It is expected to cost in the neighborhood of $125.- 900, ,O00 of which $65, ,000,O0 is for the eastern section, to be built by the government. and $60.0OO.00O for the western section, to be built by the rail- way company.
 In addition to the main line, there are several projected branches, some to connect with the principal towns and cities to the south of the railway, and others to open up new districts still further north. Nothing here has been definitely decided, but it is practically certain that in the east, branches will connect the new transcontinnental rail- way with Montreal. Toronto, Sault Ste. Marie and Fort Williams; while in the west branches will be built to Regi- ma. Calgary. Prince Albert and other important centers in the wheat and ranching districts. In British Colum- bia. connection will probably be made with a line running north from Van couver, and a branch line will run north to Dawson City. A possible de- velopment of the future may be branch from some point on the eastern section extending northward to Hudson Bay. Railways to Hudson Bay have been projected and chartered time and again during the past ten or fifteen years. but have always fallen through because of the immense expense in- volved. and the uncertainty as to the forthcoming of profits for many years after completion. With tho new transcontinental road opening up so much of northern Canada, the cost of a branch to Hudson Bay would be very materially reduced and its commercial success correspondngly increased

SHIFTS FOR DRuNKARDs.

 Chicago. March 23.-Hospita1 ships tor habitual drunkards. to be anchored in c safely isolated part of the har- bor. is the scheme proposed by Dr. C. IL. Mix, expert in the treatment of alcoholic patients, in a lecture before the social science class in the fine arts buildin.
 Dr. Mix discussed the subject of ~Cure for Inebriates," calling the present system of throwing drunkards indiscriminately into the Bridewell "archaic."
 An habitual drunkard Is a diseased man." said Dr. Mix, ''and he should be looked after with a medical eye.
 The first thing to do Is to with draw the poison. then take care of the reactionary symptoms. The physi- cal damage on the stomach, liver and Kidneys must be repaired. After this comes the year or so of convalescence. and the patient should have specific education on the evils of alcohol"

Negro Doctor Told Woman to Eat
 Heart.

New York. March 23.-"King" Bouc- court, a negro of African descent, has been placed on trial under the charge made some months ago of killing a white child twenty months old. cables the Herald's Havana correspondent. The child's body was found at Guira De Melena, horribly mutilated, ana with the heart removed.
 Charges were made that Bouccourt posed as a "voodor' doctor and that when an old negress consulted him for treatment he advised that her only remedy was to eat the heart of a white person. Kidnapping the white victim is alleged to have followed. A dozen negroes were arrested on charges Of being accessories to the crime.
 Owing to the great fear in which the -voodoo doctors" are held there has been great difficulty thus far in obtain ing testimony.

Arizona for AriZOnans.

From recent reports the gov ernment contractors at Roose- walt might be interested in this |:
 Instead of importing labor from other countries, it would be well for the railroad contractors to first exhaust the Arizonia market. There are several thous- and Apaches on the San Carlos reservation, a large number of whom are anxious to work. They are good laborers and de- serve to be given an opportunity to work. Back in Pennsylvania, where the Apache boys are edu- cated, they are in big demand for farm work. They have en- ergy and endurance, and are also willing. Arizonans seem to have been slow to realize this fact Copper Era.

TERRITORIAL FAIR
 NOTES

Arrangements are being made for Company D., U. s. Cavalry, now located at Fort Huachucha to attend the Territorial Far and give daily exhibition drills. It is hoped these arrangements will be perfected so that this company can be at the Fair. 1t is said that it is one of the crack companies of the Army.
 The citizens of Clifton and Mor- enci have guaranteed the 5000 stake in the 2.17 pace. This race has closed with fire list of horses entered and promises to be one of the fast races of the meeting. The Clifton Morenci guarantee shows that the people there are interested in the Fair and are willing to help towards its success.
 The railroad companies have agreed to make special freight rates to the far as follows On shipments to the fair full rates will be charged and exhibits will be returned free, provided they have not changed ownership. In fruit shipment full rates will be charged and If after the close of the Fair the fruit is worthless, some of the roads will refund all and others one-halfo of the freight paid. On minerals full rates will be charged going and returned free; If allowed to remain as a permanent exhibit some conces- sion will be made, to be announc- ed later. Passenger rates on all the main line roads will be two (2) cents per mile each way and on some of the branch roads one fare for the round trip has been named.
 Mrs. w. F. Nichols, Superin- tendent ot the Women's Depart ment of the Fair, announces some small changes in the premi- um list. Eyelet embroirdy will include work OH silk as well as linen and cotton. Tatting and shadow embroidery are added and, in the culinary division ples were overlooked but are now in- cluded.
 For the accommodation of vis- itors to the Fair a Bureau of in formation has been established at the Board of Trade rooms and Mir, C. E. Van De Veer has charge of it. Special attention will be given to persons who wish toengage rooms in advance and anyo wishing reservations

Veer.
 The Stake races of the Fair have closed with a list of horses that has never been equaled in the Territory. The purse races will add many more and the run ners are coming in so that all ready there is plenty of assur- ance that this will be the best race meeting ever held in the Southwest.

1t is estimated that there will be an
migration of not less than one million
people from the old world to our shores

of peasants desiring to escape military
service, will be greater than ever be-
fore. We hear from various sources
that they are the off-scouring of the
earth and the various sources are prob
ably correct. But what shall we do?
We have for years been enacting re-
strictive migration laws. These
people, every one of them, have to dis
play enough money to enable them to
evade the rule against paupers. Shall
we slam the door of hope and hospi-
ia lity in their faces? Was this country

Cavalier Forcats for the sleek and
prosperous only? 1t is suspected that
if we could have a vision of our
forbears who landed at Cape Cod,
jamestown and Manhattan between
two or three hundred years ago, we
find them in appearance, morals and
manners not greatly superior to these
poor Russians. We are an uneconoml-
cal people. We spend millions year
ly to impress our many brands of theo-
logy on peoples who cannot comprehend

selves while we try to exclude from
