Of the original promoters Of the San
Francisco, Idaho & Montana road, the

during the promoting stage was in

Concerning the enterprise in which
he is interested, Mr.. Proper had moth

he was in Minneapolis on business
connected with the road, which is now
building.
Mr.. Proper is lavish in his praise
Of the west, and when speaking Of
other roads, he places credit where it
belongs, as is characteristic Of the
westerner. He is an enthusiast and
when launched on the subject Of
Idaho's necessities along railroad lines,

Minneapolis Is Important.

Concerning activity in the railroad
world, Mr.. Proper said:
"There are those in Minneapolis
better qualified to enlighten you on
that subject. AS you know, we Of the
west have grown to think of Mime
apolis as quite as important as New
York or Chicago as financial nucleus.
"'True, there is great activity in
railroad building thruout the United
States, and especially in the inter
Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Montana and
Washington. And I don't think it re-
quires deep reasoning to arrive at the
conclusion that the country's great
overgrown necessity for additional
railroads has done much to attract
capital away from disastrous specula-
tion and from inflated and fictitious
bonds and doubtful stocks, placing it

a greater confidence, born from Sc

JUST TRYING THEM

A gawky country boy came to
town recently, and after wander
ing up and down the street an
hour or so, stopped in front of an
empty building to gaze at an adj
vertisement Of some theatrical
company. In a little while he was
joined by one Of the town ioafers
and before very long another and
then two or three more. The
farmer said not a word but con-
tinued to look. After half an
hour passed, one of the more cur
ious of the loafers could stand it
no longer, and he asked the farm
ar by what lie was looking at.
The country boy turned his head
and answered: / was just trying
to see how long n fellow could tend
to his own business in this town
without some durn fool wantin' to
know what he was doing. Elk.

A NEW MAGAZINE

aftermath, a unique monthly mag
azine will begin publication in At
lanta in November under the title
of 1.-The Race Question and South
ern Symposium This magazine,
its publishers announce, will be
monographs in character, hand
ling the negro problem from the
standpoint of sociology, ethnology
and political economy. 1t will in
no wise be an organ of incendiary
agitation, but will discuss the race
issue dispassionately from the
viewpoint of the Southern white
man, and be a reflex of Caucasion
sentiment.

GIVES HER LIFE TO POOR.
Splendid Work of Education Done by
New Orleans Woman, Her
self an Invalid.

In the city of New Orleans are
approximately 100000 white
men and boys. OF these, 1000
three out of every 300 you meet
on the street-are dependent for
their education this year, for
the opportunity to learn to read
and to write and so to advance
their station in life-for all this
absolutely dependent on one
woman, says Everybody's maya
zine. This woman, whose impor-
lance to the city is SO great that
if by any sad chance her activity
were to cease one and One-hasf
per cent. of its white made popu-
lation would find itself deprived
of hope, is not rich. but poor.
She is SO poor that before she
can give an hour and a dollar for
the helpless ones who need her,
she must give another hour to
pay her own expenses for the
day. She is so poor that she has
even earned her own education
as she has given it out, study
ing sometimes but a day ahead
of her pupils. She is frail, Grip
pied, very weak; she goes about
in a steel harness and on crutch-
es. Though she is still under
middle age, her hair is white az
snow, from days and nights of
unbelievable suffering.
From morning till midafter-
noon she teaches in a private
school to earn money for her
charities. From midafternoon
until evening, if able to work,
she deyotes herself to the needs
of those poorer than she. From
supper time till nine, till ten, till
midnight if need be, she faces
the multitude of men and boys
boys of nine and men of 90
who have come TO her for help.
Sometimes two in a seat, some
times on boards between the
seats, sometimes on the edges
of platforms and the treads Of
stairways and against the walls
of the Railways, they crowd her
schoolhouse while she and her
assistants are everywhere
among them, hearing recita-
tons, giving aid and counsel, ex-
planning, arguing, laughing, en-
couraging-stirring the solid,
sodden mass of the city's poor
with the leaven of hope and pos
sibility.

NEW YORK. January S.-Bullishness was
the dominant characteristic of the days
stock market through the bulk of the ses-
sion. There was more or less irregularity
I'm respect TO the simultaneous movements
throughout the market, but for the most
part the tendency all around was upward.
There was a heavy quantity of early profit
taking, which was, however, more than
offset by the aggressive operations of pools
and cIiques on the bull side, and by an
unquestionable increase in the pubics par
tcipation.
1t seems no longer open to doubt that the
remarkable advance that has taken place,
and the wonderful demonstrations of Under
lying strength that the market has made
from time to time in the last few months,
have stimulated outside interest.
The public so-calIed, would appear from
the evidences of prosperity that are afford
ed on all sides, to be in position to make
stack market commitments, and that the
attraction To do so has become sufficiently
strong is becoming a matter of day 20 day
