IMPORTANT MATTER WILL BE
TAKEN UP BY RAILROAD COM
MISSION AT THEIR SESSION IN
OCTOBER.

At it's October meeting, the rail
road commission will decide whether
under the provisions of tt. Stcr1
bill, it's power has been increased
SO as to give it legal authority to ro.
quire the switching OF cars, to pro-
vide a reasonable rate therefor and to
apply a penalty for delays, etc. The
question is Of vital importance to
shippers, especially those located IN
the larger cities, entered by two. or
more roads, and the meeting will
doubtless be largely attended.
The commission Will lbe pleased
to have any person interested III the
question to appear on October 4, and
present their views on the matter
In the event the commission decid-
es that its power has been increased
so as to give it legal authority to
compel switching, provide rates ana
assesses penalties for delays, and it
is developed that the shippers de
mand relief in this respect, an or
der, requiring the roads to switcn
cars delivered by another road, viii
be promulgated.
Secretary George i. Montgomery
of the commission. has issued the
following formal notice of the meet
ing and the hearing,
To Whom it May Concern:
The railroad commission has held
that its penalty demurrage rules do
not apply to delays caused in the
transfer or switching of cars after the
car has been rendered and accepted by
the consignee named in the bill o.
lading, or i'll other words, after the
contract named in the bill of ladins
has been completed. The commission
will at it's meeing on October 4, how
ever, consider the question as to
whether or not its authority has beer
so tincreaEed by the provisions 0i
the Steed bill, passed at the session
of the Legislature in 1905, as to give
1t legal authority to require thC
Switching of cars, to provide reason
able rate of charges therefor and tC
apply penalty rules for delays, etc.
and at the time above indicated the
commission will be pleased to have
g. any person interested in this ques
ton to appear and present his view
upon the subject.

STOPPED TRAIN


" CHICAGO. oct. 20.-A dispatch to
the Record Herald from Los Angelica,
Calf, says:
Passengers on the Los Angeles lint
tied of the Salt Lake railroad who ar
rived in Los. Angeles yesterday told
how an old prospector stopped a train
running 40 miles an hour in the middle
of the Mojave desert by tagging with
his hat to secure water for himself
and burros. The train crew supplied
them all by the bucketful as quickly
as possible and started the train on
its way again. An old Nevada law
which allows desert travellers who are
in distress to stop trains and demand
water and compel train crews to pro-
vide the needed refreshments still
holds. The old prospector knew it, SO
did the engineer. \

Forestry Work.

The young fellow who is "looking
for a soft snap" need not apply, for
the work Of a student assistant is by
no means easy. Nor will the govern
ment afford pleasant vacation in the
open air for young men in broken
health. It is not picnic in the cool
woods that the student assistant will
have. He will be in the cool woods in
summer and the cold woods in winter.
He will live in tent, keep lumber
mems hours, as the somewhat discour-
aging official bulletin, entitled ''Sugges-
tons to Prospective Forest Students"
reads. He will work with a 'gang,"
get up at break Of day, tramp the for
est, swing an ak, measure with cali
pers, count rings" on stumps and set
down figures in book when his fin
gers may be so cold that the figures
he makes look like chicken tracks. He
will do this day in and day out. At
night, perhaps too far away to return
to his tent, he will build a fire, eat ba-
con and hard tack, wrap himself in the
blanket which he has carried all day
and dream of the folks at home. It is
likely that he will do this the next
day and perhaps several other days.
So there is good reason for the none
too encouraging words of the bulletin,
Bodily soundness and endurance are
absolutely essential for those who take
up the work Of a forest student,"-

The Way They Are Cooked and Pre-
pared For Market.
Sardines are caught in nets, and after
being well washed the heads are cut
off and the fish are sprinkled lightly
with salt. After lying for few hours
they are placed on grids in rows almost
perpendicular. The frames are then
placed in pans containing boiling olive
oil. The oil is changed as soon as it
becomes too black and dirty for con-
tinuing the cooking process.
AS soon as the fish are considered
sufficiently cooked, they are withdrawn
from the pans of oil and the grids are
placed on the tables covered with zinc,
the surface of the table inclining to-
ward groove in the center. The oil
IS thus carried to a vessel prepared to
receive it. Round the table stand the
women whose business it is to pack the
fish closely and uniformly in boxes.
The boxes being full, the fish are COW
cred with fresh oil and the lids are then
soldered down. Thus Theoretically
sealed tsey are placed in iron baskets
and Immersed in boiling water. The
smaller boxes are thus boiled for half
an hour and the larger ones somewhat
longer, in proportion to size Of box.
The fish are then ready for the market.

Force of Habit,

An honest hog buyer started up in
business and guaranteed the farmers
a fair deal. He always weighed the
porkers twice to guard against mis-
takes. Once in weighing a bunch Of
pigs the second time he found their
weight had increased to the amount of
200 pounds. He was at loss to ac-
count for the condition until an en-
ployee confessed that at the time of the
first weighing he had inserted the toe
Of his boot under the scales and pried
it up, thus cheating the farmer out of
one hog. The buyer was indignant.
What did you do trick like that
for?'' he asked. "You couldn't have
profited by it anyhow
II know it, John,' said the guilty
man, ''but I just couldn't help it,
! 1t had always been the custom to
cheat the farmer and the man couldn't
bear to see the old customs passing
away. +, =:

THE TABLES OF STONE.
A Curious Calculation From the
Ta1mud and the Bible.

A Curious Calculation From the
Talmud and the Bible.
Did you ever figure on the proba-
bic size and immense strength Of
Moses, basing your calculations on the
dimensions Of the tables of stone, as
given by the Talmudic writer's? In
the Talmud folio 3S, column 81 it is
said that the tables of stone upon
which the commandments were writ
ten were six ellis long, six ellis broad
and three ellis thick. In the Bible,
Exodus xxi, Is, we are told that
'Moses went down from the mount,
and the two tables of the testimony
were in his hand"
"Hand," mind you, not hands, though
it must be admitted that it would have
taken a strong pair Of hands to per-
form the task Of carrying them, even
on the level. Now, we will put the
Talmudic and the Biblical accounts to-
gether and apply the mathematical
rule. The Hebrew ell or cubit was, at
Its least estimate, measure of eight
cen inches, which would have made
each Of the tables stone block nine
feet long, nine feet wide and four and
one-half feet thick. If common stone
weighed as much to the square foot
then as it does now the tables would
tip the beam at about twenty-eight
tons! Was Moses one of the giants
Of those days or has some one made a
mistake in calculations or in the state
ment Of supposed facts ?-Exchange.

HIVE IN AN AQUARIUM.
Good Way of Seeing How the Little
Busy Bee Works.

Good Way of Seeing How the Little
Busy Bee Works.
Everybody is curious to see bees ac-
tually at work. Take a rectangular
glass aquarium and place it on win
dow sill, elevated slightly at the side
nearest the window, so that when the
latter is raised an inch the bees may
pass in and out. If desired, the bees
may be kept for some time in confine-
ment by raising the aquarium an inch
on blocks and using strip Of wire
screen cloth to prevent the bees from
escaping.
When confined the bees should be fed
a strip of equal parts of sugar and
water. A frame or two of bees may
be purchased for triding sum.
Put within this glass aquarium some
rustic supports to represent projecting,
undecayed portions of the inside Of the
hollow trunk. Keep all covered by an
opaque cloth when not observing what
is going on within this glass bee home
Then the bees will be free to work
and to adapt themselves to the envi-
ronment They can suit their own
fancy about attaching combs to the
sticks; they may build diagonally or in
any other form that they may prefer,
and they may attach the comb to sides
or ends just when and where they
think it is necessary.
In the artificial hives the combs are
attached only at the edges, but in nat
ural conditions within the bee tree or
in it's counterpart, as represented by
the old fashioned box hive with opaque
sides and in our transparent inverted
aquarium, the bees can build combs
and attach them in any way that they
see fit.
One Of the most interesting objects
for study is to note when the bees
think it necessary to put out a side
support from long comb. They seem
to believe that they are really within
hollow tree and that it Is likely to be
swayed by the gales. OF course when
so swayed long combs laden with
honey or with young bees would be
too much for the unyielding rigidity Of
the upper part of the combs. These, if
they have no side stays, would bend,
crack and be crashed against each
other.
The bees have learned this and give
the combs a fine support whenever it
is necessary. They do this, it is true to
a certain extent, in the regular eight
or ten frame hive, but not with the
naturalness with which they do it in a
large, unobstructed space.
Not long ago veteran beekeeper
took a colony of bees from an attic,
where they had been for many years.
f'Well,'' said he, you should have
seen the funny forms Of those combs
most interesting thing I ever saw
There was one pillar almost round-a
solid. center right and several feet long
and these combs around that; the
most fantastic shape you ever saw

Disrae1i's Keen Business Instinct.

DAsHaeAIS neen BUSINESS instinct.
When the Hon. Mr.. Ward wrote his
novel ''Tremaine," he was fearful of
acknowledging himself the author, un-
til its fate should have been ascertain
ed. He accordingly, the better to pre-
serve his incognito, sent the manuscript
copy by the wife of his attorney to Mr..
Colburn. The work, although accepted,
was not considered likely to pay ex-
tremely we'll, and consequently
tri1ing sum was given for it. Contrary,
however, to Mr.. Colburn's expectations,
it ran to three editions.
Ihe ingenious author Of "Vivian
Grey" then twenty 1.-TWO years old, hav-
Ing heard Of the circumstances, deter
mined to useit to advantage, and accord
ingly having arranged his work for
publication, he proceeded to find out
the honorable gentleman's fair messen-
ger. This he quickly effected, and upon
promise Of giving her EGO induced her
to be the bearer of his novel to the
same publisher.
The woman was instantly recognized
by Mr.. Colburn as the same person
who brought him '"Tremaine;;" and rec
ollecting the great sale Of that novel,
he leaped at the manuscript presented
to him with the utmost eagerness. 1t
was quickly read, and handsome sum
given for the copyright. A short time,
however, enabled Mr.. Colburn to find
out his error, but too late to remedy
himself. The work was not successful,
and considerable sum was lost by its
publication.
