BY the agreement just reached the
Salt Lake will be able to make good
showing in number of pounds handled
but the profit for handling this freight
will show up on the books of the
Santa Fe instead of on the Salt Lake S
books.
The Salt Lake will take business
from the Santa Fe here and will de-
liver it to the Denver & Rio Grande
at Salt Lake city, which in turn VIII
deliver 1t to the Santa Fe again at
Colorado Springs.
Westbound goods will be received by
the Denver & Rio Grande at Colorado
Springs and will be delivered by the
Salt Lake to the Santa Fe in Los
Angeles for distribution.
Why the Salt Lake should desire this
business at very low profit is a ques-
ton that no railroad men have been
able to answer except those who were
instrumental in making the agreement.

RAILROAD BRIEFS

Ralph A. Thelson has been appoint
ed district freight agent of the South
ern Pacific with headquarters in the
Douglas building.
Il. A. Graham, assistant general
freight agent for the Southern Pacific,
has received a dispatch from General
Freight Agent Luce saying that the
freight sheds at Fourth and King
streets in San Francisco were un-
harmed by the earthquake and fire.
The Vallejo street sheds are demol-
ished, with the exception of the new
brick freight house. This information
will greatly relieve Los Angeles mer-
chants who are interested in San Fran
cisco freight shipments, for about
ninety-five per cent of the San Fran
cisco business is handled at the Fourth
and King streets depot.
Major s. K. Hooper, general pas
senger and ticket agent of the Denver
&c Rio Grande, with headquarters in
Denver, announces that the open top
observation car service through the
Royal Gorge will be resumed on May
15.
Among the latest pamphlets that
have been issued by the Denver e.
Rio Grande are those entitled Gross
ing the Rockies" Fertile Lands of
Colorado" and Camping in the Rocky
Mountains" All are attractively pre-
pared little books and contain much
valuable information as well as in
teresting pictures of scenery.
A. T. Sackett, freight agent for the
Erie Railroad at Meadville, Pa, ac-
companied by Mrs. Sackett, returned

months in California. Mr.. Sackett has
been in the employ of the Erie for
forty years at Meadville and came
west on account of illness.
1t was announced yesterday that the
general eastern excursions will leave
Los Angeles on June 6 and Z, as well

iness," said r, C. Peck, assistant gen.
eral passenger agent of the Salt Lake,
yesterday. II do not mean that we are
going to put on trains to compete with
the electric lines, but there is business
there that the electric roads cannot
handle and we want it.
There are a great many people who
would rather ride on the trains than
on the electric cars anyway. Elderly
people do not like to ride on the street
cars on account of the crowds and on
account of the starting and stopping 6
and jerking and jumping.
I'VE have had a lot of this business
heretofore and we are going to get it
back now. We had business before the
electric lines ever ran to the beaches
and there Is no reason why we should
not have it now"
The Salt Lake will run five or six
daily and extra ones on Sunday to
Long Beach, East San Pedro, San
Pedro and Terminal Island, beginning
May Is. At Terminal Island the build
ings and places of amusement will be
put into good shape and band con-
certs will be given.
Mr.. Peck has been desirous of estab-
fishing this service for a long time
and was III cnarge OF IL 1or long tlIne
before it was discontinued. The ex-
perience of the road has been that
whenever an entertainment was over
all of the people wanted to return
to Los Angeles at the same time.
Fourteen more cars have been filled
in the past on the return trip than
went to San Pedro or Terminal Island
on a Sunday morning.
The rate over the Salt Lake will be
the same as over the other lines, ex-
cept for ten-ride books, which the cleo

Choir of Women Deaf Mutes

In silence, absolute and profound, 300
persons celebrated Easter Sunday in
| the little church of st. Ann, on 14Sth
street, near Amsterdam avenue.
Although without spoken words, the
service held for the congregation q
pious inspiration not surpassed in 9TH
er of the city's churches where many
voices were uplifted in Eastor carols
and organ tones filled vast interiors
with ringing melody. For did not st.
AIMS worshippers, deaf mutes ALL have
their pastor, their surpliced choir,
bright floral decorations and all the
beautiful accompaniments of an Easter
service?
Deaf mutes from far and near gath
cred in the little church, where cell
ebration unique in all the land was
announced Several came from Balti-
more and Rochester, and there were
many from Bayonne, Newark and
RoseVille.
In choristers caps, black gowns and
surplices the choir was led by Miss
Alice Judge. It's members were the
Misses Gertrude Turner, e. Brewer, nj.
Brewer and A. Thaldwald. The OPEN
ing anthem sent it's message straight
to the hearts of the congregation. The
choristers, waving their hands rhythm
ically, flashed the tempo of the anthem
and sang the words with nimble
fingers. On the faces of the worship
pers was depicted the peace which
comes of soothing music.
The sermon was preached" by the
Rev John Chamberlain. the pastor.
With unabated watchfulness the wor-
shippers received his message.
Following the sermon, the choir took
it's position before the chancel rail for
the singing of a hymn. There was not
one there who did not feel that in the
little church was being uplifted mel
ody which the undulating hands and
swiftly moving fingers inadequately
suggested.
Communion was partaken of by more
than half of the congregation at the
conclusion of the regular service. Then
the worshippers moved about the
church, exchanging greetings and COM
menting on the beauty of the service
throughout which not the slightest
sound had broken in on the stiffness.

TRAFFIC AGREEMENT REACHED
Salt Lake Can Receive Goods From
Towns on Other Roads

BY means of recent agreements, the
Salt Lake road is now in position to
deliver goods to or receive them from
any point in. Southern California
touched by any railroad.
Whatever the price may have been,
whatever the purpose may have been,
r. NJ Sloan, assistant general freight
agent, said yesterday that the road
was now in position to accept this bus
mess.
Mr.. Sloan refused to discuss the mat
ter any further, saying that it was
something that did not interest the
public any further than that the road
could handle it's business in the proper
way.
1t is known that the Salt Lake has
long had agreement with the South

latter roads territory, for which priv

PRIVATE LOCOMOTIVES NOW

The latest thing in private" excel
lence is the locomotive. 1t is hereafter
to be classed along with the private car
and the private yacht. Three locomo-
tives are being built at the Juniata
shops of the Pennsylvania railroad for
the personal use of President A. J.
Cassatt, General Manager w. w. At
terbury and General Superintendent
George w. Creighton.
These engines are to be speedy,
powerful and beautiful, and are to be
reserved for special service only. For
several years past the absence of brass
work from locomotives has been notice
able. There will be a return of the
brasswork vanity upon these new loco
motives. They will be beautifully
modelled and all exposed parts will be
highly polished.
The interior of the cabs will be fin
insed in mahogany and the driving
wheels will be covered with dust guards

PHELAN FOR GOVERNOR

The suggestion is made by promi-
nent Democrats in various sections Of
California that the man to be nomi-
mated for governor by the state Demo-
cratic convention is James D. Phelan,
former mayor of San Francisco and
now chairman of the relief fund COM
mittee.
1t is a good suggestion for many rea-
sons and in many respects. Mr.. Phelan
has never been identified prominently
with any of San Francisco's factional
fights. On the contrary, he is known
as pacificator inside the ranks and a
hard hitter against the enemy. He is
man of means, much of which he has
devoted to the public good. When San
Francisco was on fire James d. Phelan
subscribed one million dollars to the re-
lief fund for the sufferers.
Mr.. Phelan has the confidence of his
own party and that of thousands of Re-
publicans throughout the state. His
integrity and his honesty could not be
questioned. His loyalty and devotion
to California has been demonstrated on
more than one occasion, but never so
thoroughly as now, when he is offering
his fortune and all his time to the effort
to rebuild San Francisco.
1t is early yet to determine the pro-
cedure of the next state Democratic
convention, but it is none too early to
discuss the material available for the
state ticket.
The name of James d. Phelan of San
Francisco for governor is worth think
ing and talking about.

HEALTH OF THE ANIMAL.

Except in the warm South we be-
lieve that the windows of every barn
should be fitted with an extra covering
of wood. In other words, a shutter
of wood hinged on the outside and
swinging in to be hooked on the in
side. If the frame will not permit OF
this, have it anyway, and use but
ton on the outside. One scarcely
realizes how much warmer the barn
will be for the cows and horses with
this double window, and the cost IS
not great. In some cases double
window of glass will answer the pur-
pose and be more ornamental, but in
cold locations a curtain of burlap
should be used on the coldest nights.
In addition to fixing the windows as
described above, go over the barn
wall and stuff newspapers between
the cracks of the boards.
Have some corner OF the barn
where window Of size according
to the number of animals in the barn
can be placed which will be open
most of the time to give as nearly
perfect ventilation as possible, or
have some plan which is as applicable
to the large building as the small one.
While the barn should be made COM
Portable, remember that the health
of the animals requires perfect ven
tilation, or as nearly perfect as one
can Oet If

AN HONEST MAN.

Cassius R. Peck, assistant United

at banquet Guthrie in recently spoke
on honesty. One thing he said was
this
"What are we coming to? Are
we coming to such pass that our
ideas of an honest man will cores
pond with the idea of old Hiram
Stroode?
"Hiram Stroode, for the seventh
time was about to fail. He called in
an expert accountant to disentangle
his books. The accountant, after
two days work, announced to Hiram
that he would be able to pay his
creditors four cents on the dollar.

vexed.

MUSLIN WILL NOT BURN.

Who ever heard of muslin not burn
ing when it is brought into contact
with fire? Every one knows that
muslin is the very easiest cloth to
burn, and yet under certain circum-
stances you can put a piece OF mus
lin right on top of a bed of live Goals
without its being even scorched. 1t
is an interesting phenomenon, and we
advise its trial.
Just take piece of metal which
has been highly polished-copper,
for instance-and bind the piece of
muslin around it as tightly as posi-
Bile. You can now place it on Goals
at white heat and blow them to keep
them aglow. Still the muslin will
not burn. The reason for this seem
ingly remarkable fact is that copper
is a good conductor Of heat, and all
the heat from the Goals passes direct
ly into the copper, leaving the mus
lin uninlured.

these houses being $50 feet apart,
set out in long rows over the gently
sloping fields. He has 100 of these
houses scattered over three or four
fields. The food is loaded into low
wagon, which is driven about to each
house in turn, the attendant feeding
as he goes; at the afternoon feeding
the eggs are collected. The fowls are
fed twice day. The morning food
is mash of cooked vegetables and
mixed meals this mash is made up
the afternoon of the day before. The
afternoon feed is whole corn the year
round. Country Gentleman.
