The Santa Fe has spent upwards of
a million dollars on its Independence
Tulsa branches during the past Is
months, and, it is understood, Just
as soon as the present contract of
ballasting is completed the Oil Fly
er will be made a fast train between
Tulsa and Kansas City,
Enough gumbo has been burned
below Caney to ballast the road bed
all the way to Tulsa and already a
good deal of the work has been done.
There are now 325 men, three train
crews, and two, wreckers engaged in
improving this branch of the road.
The tracks in many places have been
raised, the bed widened to protect
it from rains and floods, and cuts
deepened. The small engines of a
yearEago have been displaced by larg-

ever been done to keepSup this piece
d. .sosd and il is now in bad con-
dition. The rails are only ffty-two
pounds, and are unsafe. If the Mis-
sour Pacific does not make repairs
at once, the Santa. Fe will build a
track over its, own right Of way from
the Missouri Pacific crossing at Ca
ney, nearly to Owen.
About the first Of the year it is
the intention of the Santa Fe to take
up all the rails between Independence
and Tulsa and replace them with
heavier mes. The present rails are
sixty-one pounds; the new ones will
weigh seventy-fve pounds.
The new station at Havana is
ready for the roof.
A Santa Fe official states that this
winter the Santa Fe passenger trains
for the Pacific coast will run through
Independence and Winfield, instead
of through Topeka and Hutchinson .
The freignht will be diverted over
the Fredonia branch, which is
somewhat shorter. 1t is estimated
that by this change nearly a days
time will be saved in the trip t.
California. The cut off into Texas
will be completed in a few week:

now have to be pushed over the pass
with two heavy engines and only {

suit is much of the time the roa6
is badly blockaded, to such fenor
nous proportions has the business o.
the road grown.
1t is not believed by Santa Fe of
ficials that the central part of thu
state will feel the loss of thes'
trains. The Colorado business ha'
reached vast proportions and the IN
ereasing traffic will more than maxi
up for the loss, The change, how
ever, will mean a great deal to thu

The EAGLE In Scotland.

The eagle has grown scarce in the
British isles An old record states that
in the seasons 1S31-34, inclusive. no
fewer than Ill mature specimens Of
the eagle, together with fiftythree
young and eggs, were destroyed in Il
single county of Scotland-Sutherland
from which statement one can we'll
imagine the cruel havoc that has been
wrought in the ranks of once very
common bird Of prey. No one denies
that the eagle is destructive to game
and lambs, but it seems pity that so
noble bird should be SO utterly wiped
out of existence, for the eagle has many
interesting associations with the past.
In Scotland a century or two back
three eagles feathers were the badge
of Il chief, two of chieftain and one
of a gentleman, but more interesting
still is the fact that the flesh of the
eagle was considered in the seven
teenth century "a valuable medicine
against the govt" The same authority
also states that the bird was some
times eaten by the hardy highlander as
part of his ordinary diet.

What Elephants Eat.

All the elephants used in the Indian
army as draft animals in the artillery
or commissariat or as baggage animals
In the transport department are very
carefully attended to and in every way
treated with the greatest considera-
ton. They are rather expensive to
keep, costing about f3 a day, including,
of course, the wages of their mahout
and grass cutter They are fed prin-
cipally On unhusked rice and grass.
OF the former they get about 25O
pounds and of the latter about 400 per
diem. A very large female eats, after
the first day or two, about 100 pounds
of green fodder in eighteen hours.
This is exceeded often by larger tus&-
ers. so that 500 pounds is about. the
right amount TO be placed before Il full
grown elephant, with margin to al
low for waste. AS a good load for an
elephant is about 800 pounds, it will
be seen that the amount he will eat
per day will be as much as he can car
ry, and this will also be the right pro
portion for the smaller ones.-London

Going to the Theater In Venice.

Going to the theater in Venice is
like fantastic overture to the play
and sets ones mood properly in tune.
You step into the gondola, which darts
at once across a space of half lighted
water and turns down narrow canal
between walls which seem to reach
more than halfway to the stars. The
tiny lantern in the PROV sheds no
light, Is indeed no more than signal
Of approach, and you seem to be slid
ing straight into the darkness. Here
and there lamp shines from bridge
or at the water gate of house, but
with no more than enough light to
make the darkness seen. The gondola
sways, sweyyes and Is round sharp
corner, and the water rushes against
the oar as 1t swings the keel straight
for another plunge forward. You see
in fashes.-Arthur Symons in Serb
