Double Tracking the Santa Fe.

Double Tracking the Santa Fe.
The work of double tracking the
Santa Fe main line through Kansas
is progressing as rapidly as the sup
ply of steel will permit. Up to the
first of September one hundred and
eighty-six miles of double track had
been completed, reaching from Kan
sas City to Newton. This is all laid
with the standard eighty-five pound
rail, and ballasted with crushed rock.
Between Chicago and Kansas City the
double track practically extends from
Chicago to Coal City, Illinois, with
isolated sections the rest of the way
at convenient intervals where traffic
is liable to be congested. The main
line, as indeed are most of the
branches, is practically ballasted from
end to end, or where not ballasted, as
in California and Arizona and. in
southern Texas, it is sprinkled with
oil, which answers the same purpose.
Grades have been greatly reduced, as
on the new Be1en cutoff, which has
taken Lis feet off the height of the
continental divide. New steel bridges,
with solid masonry piers, have been
built, and care has been taken to
make the construction of the roadway
frst-class in every particular.

Americans are slowly awking to the
commercial value of preserving ma
tural wonders and objects of historic
interest An important factor in the
prosperity of Italy and other nations
of the old world is the tourist trade.
It has been estimated that the money
spent by tourists in Italy constitutes
a third income of that country En-
try of the United States into the gal
axy of world powers has greatly in
creased its value from the standpoint
of the tourists, remarks the Boston
Transcript, and steamship companies
report marked increase in the last
few years in the number of foreign
visitors to this country. Hitherto
Americans have not been quick to re-
alfze the necessity of preserving and
marking the points of interest in the
various parts of the country which
viii attract visitors

A STRANGE Awakening.

Senator Bailey, of Texas, in descrfb-
ing a terrific fight that he had once
seen on the streets of New York, said
that the hubbub and confusion remind
ed him of an episode that happened
on train.
"On certain train,' he said, "a
very large, muscular man fell asleep,
and annoyed all the passengers by
snoring Tremendously. A drummer,
carrying half lemon in his hand,
uptoed over to a little boy who sat
behind the snorer.
"'Son, said the drummer, I am a
doctor, and if that man doesn't stop
snoring he'll die of apoplexy. Watch
your chance, and as soon as his
mouth opens a little wider, lean over
and squeeze this lemon into it.
''The boy obeyed"

TRIUMPH FOR MRS. LETTER.
Well-Deserved Stumbling Administered
to Titled Neighbor.

A Washington friend of Mrs. Levi
Letter has been telling how that capa-
BILE woman held her own among the
lords and dukes in Scotland, where
she rented an ancestral palace for the
summer. Mrs. Letter was returning
the call of much betitled neighbor,
when she was shown through the
premises. The kitchen garden was
particularly attractive, and she adj
mired the vegetables and small fruits,
and when her host said that he would
send a basket to her carriage she
gladly acquiesced.
A few days after, the same lord
called over the phone and asked if
she would have other vegetables and
fruits, and not liking to refuse the
courtesy OF a live lord, she assented.
This continued for a month or. more,
when one day she received a bill from
my lords steward which made her
open her eyes. She had been charged
a good round sum for every article
which had been sent.
Mrs. Letter paid the bill, but imme.
diately after she called up her thrifty
neighbor, insisted on speaking to him
personally, and she asked sweetly
how he was selling garden stuff, be
cause if his prices were exorbitant she
would send to the market in the flu
ture.

To Detect Counterfeit Notes.

st will give you pointed or two
about counterfeits and good United
States notes and certificates" said a
treasury department chief of divf-
sion, which may be found handy for
reference from time to time
.'All United States notes are printed
in sheets of four notes of each denom-
ination on each sheet. Each note is
lettered in its respective order, in the
upper and lower corners diagonally
opposite, A, B, c and D, and we have
this system for numbering our notes:
All numbers, on being divided by 4
and leaving L for remainder, have
the check letter A; 2 remainder, b;
5 remainder, c; even numbers, or
with no remainder, D. Any United
States note the number of which can
be divided by four without showing
the above result is a counterfeit. and
while this rule is not infallible in all
instances, it will be found of service
in the detection of counterfeits''

Science and Music.

Although we speak loosely of sweet
sounds as musical, music proper ex-
lists in nature not at all. 1t belongs
utterly to- art. When Lorenzo said to
Jessica: There's not the smallest orb
ton like an angel sings" he spoke
beautifully, but in metaphor Music
is the most artificial of the arts, and
therefore to some minds, like that of
Pater, the purest, since form and
meaning are Identical. 1t has also
been generally accepted as the most
religious. Beethoven exclaimed: Il
know that God is nearer to me in my
music than to others" And Luther
said: Next to theology, 1 give to
music the highest place and honor;
and we see how David and all the
saints have wrought their godly
thoughts into verse, rhyme and song.
1t seems rather strange, therefore
says Golfers, that this art, being the
most ethereal, should be the one
which promises to be most mechan
ically produced. Its progress has
been dependent upon mechanical in
vention, until the orchestra reached
its present state, and now every effort
of inventive science is turned on the
elimination of the human player
Whether or not this effort shall sue
coed entirely in giving the very best
it is certain to result in giving music
of considerable quality a larger place
In thte lives of millions. and there
fore it ought to be one of the mos
spiritually valuable directions of mod
ern scientific progress.

ron SOLDIERS AND SAILORS.
How Letters Should Be Addressed to
Reach Them Promptly.

Now that so many of our naval Of
ficers, marines and sailors are shift
ing their stations and positions be-
cause of the Cuban incident, word
of suggestion to their relatives and
friends who may desire to communi-
cate with them by mail will be apro-
pos" said a postal Official
In order to secure as prompt a
delivery as possible of all mail mat
ter intended for persons in the
United States service, the sender
thereof should be particular to in
c1ude in the address complete desig-
nation of the organization, company
and regiment, vessel or other branch
of the service to which the addressee
belongs. The postage thereon should
be fully prepaid. Correspondents in
these instances should make the
superscription on the envelope, or
the package sent, very plain and full.
Care as to the legibility of the adj
dress should be exercised, and the
writing should be as clear and as dis
tinct as possible.
Remember that all mail matter,
whatever it's class, addressed to per
sons in the United States service,
whether civil, military or naval, serv-
ing in this country, or in any of Its
possessions, or en- route to or from
this country, or any of it's possessions,
whose change of address is caused by
official orders, will be transmitted as
rapidly as possible until it reaches
the person or persons for whom it is
intended.
THE actual location of the ad
dressee for the time being will be con
sidered as the original destination
of the piece of mail matter. This
transmission is not considered as for
warding' in the sense in which that
word is usually used in the postal
service, and no additional postage
shall be required therefor

SAVED BABY LYONS LIFE.
Awful Sigh. from That Dreadful Com
plant, InfantiIe Eczema-Mother
Praises Cuticura Remedies.

"Our baby had that dreadful COM
plaint. infantile Eczema, which af1ict-
ed him for several months, commenc-
ing at the top of his head, and at last
covering his whole body. His suffer
fngs were untold and constant misery,
in fact, there was nothing we would
not have done to have given him re-
lief We finally procured full set OF
the Cuticura Remedies, and in about
three or four days he began to show
brighter spirit and really laughed, Tor
the first time in year. In about
ninety days he was fully recovered.
Praise for the Cuticura Remedies has
always been our greatest pleasure,
and there is nothing too good that we
could say in their favor, for they GER
tainly saved our baby's life, for he
was the most awful sight that I ever
beheld, prior to the treatment of the
Cuticura Remedies. Mrs Maebelle
