There are many rumors of
railroad operations in the air
these days. There are indica-
tons that the Great Northern
management is becoming espe-
cially active. At Yankton and
Huron they have disclosed their
hand. but an impenetrable mys-
terry covers their operations in
this city. One rumor is that
the 500 holdings on the north of
Milwaukee track have been Sc
cured. Another that through a
well known real estate dealer OF
the city. the Great Northern is
quietly securing options On prop
erty to open another route to the

there is going to be competition

A FAMOUS STAR GROUP.
The Constellation Orion In Legend
and Literature.

and Literature.
The constellation Orion is mentioned
In the literature Of all ages. In Egypt
it represented Horus, the young or ris-
ing sun, in a boat surmounted by stars,
closely followed by Sirius, which was
shown as q COW. II has also been
found sculptured on the walls Of
Thehes 500 years ago. And on the
men of that early time 1t shone down
from the same position and with the
same brightness as it does on Us today,
Z striking example OF the unchange-
ableness of the heavens.
From the days Of the early Hindoos
to the present the constellation has for
some reason borne always a stormy
character. illusions to its direfuI tnfu-
ence are found everywhere among the
classic writers. Thus Milton wrote:
When with fierce winds Orion arrived
Hath -exed the Red sea coast
The loss Of the Roman squadron In
the first Punic war was ascribed to the
fleets having sailed just after the ris-
ing Of Orion. The group has also been
employed as a calendar sign, its morn
ing rising indicating the beginning Of
summer. its midnight rising the season
Of grape gathering and Its early even
Ing rising the arrival Of winter, with
its attendant storms. In recent times
the group has always represented a
great hunter or warrior. Its present
title anne into Greek astronomy from
