Probably as long as alligatOrs have
been known the young have been kept
as curiOsities, and most amusing pets
do the little fellows make. Unlike the
young OF other wild animals, which
are sometimes dOmesticated when
small, they grow very slowly, especi-
ally when out Of their natural envir-
Onment, and are consequently we'll
adapted for this purpose, as number
Of years elapse before the alligator is
large enough to be troublesome or
even dangerous. AlligatOrs do not ap-
pear to be very intelligent, the recOg-
milton Of the person who feeds them
in captivity being about the limit Of
their mental attainment The older
ones are sluggish and lazy, though
they sometimes fight viciOusly with
each other, and are capable Of doing
terrible execution when aroused
If properly taken care OF the young
alligator will thrive even in unnatural
circumstances. His main requirement
is sufficient heat and if the box or
cage be kept at too low temperature
the little reptile becomes languid and
almost torpid, refuses to eat for long
periods, and frequently dies at the end
of some weeks. If, however, the tenn
perature Of the air be raised, or the
tank wherein he lies be warmed by
the addition Of a little hot water, he
soon revives and attests his continued
interest in life by renewed activity and
the temperance Of his appetite IN
like the older members Of his family,
the young gator in captivity is quite

Many people who have attempted to

Rock Island to send Limited by a
ShOrter Way.

Announcement is made by the Of
hcials Of the ChicagOs Rock Island and
Pacific railway that an agreement has
been entered into between that road
and the Chicago and Alton, whereby
the former VIII use the tracks OF the
latter between Joliet, III, and Kansas
City for the Golden State Limited %
the star Rock Island train between
Chicago and California
This is done because the Alton line
between Joliet and Kansas City is
thirty miles shorter than the Rock Is
land line and this is a figure when it
comes to making time with a fast
train Another reason is that in 9TH
er years the Golden State Limited has
been delayed time and time again by
local trains on the Rock Island line
between these points and this delay
viii be done away with in the future
The Rock Island company, IL is said,
owns about siXty-five per cent OF the
stock OF the Chicago and Alton so
that the road VIII actually be using
its own tracks, but an agreement was
necessary because the Alton is run as
a corporation distinct in every parti-
cular from the Rock Island
The Golden State Limited began its
winter schedule on Sunday last and its
running time this year IS ABOUT an
hour less than IL was last year and
some Of this hour can be made up
through Kansas City. but the fast train
viii not use this route until November

A peculiar situation will be develop
ed through this agreement between

tracks OF the Atchison Topeka and
Santa Fe parallel those Of the Alton
between Joliet and Coal City a dis
lance OF thirty miles, and for some
time there has been an agreemnt be
tween the Santa Fe and the Alton
whereby they used each others tracks
between these points, so when the
Golden State gets to running over the
