Laying track by machinery is a new
thing in western railroad making. and

derrick like machine between Dakota

OF the Great Northern construction

even this record has been broken with
It. II is the plan of it's operators TO
manipulate IL at the rate Of about bve
miles a day on the Ashland extension,
The speed will be determined largely
by the ability of the men to keep IL sup

The track laying machine consists Of
several fiat cars. with complete sys-

The gasoline engine is for operating

UNABLE TO COUNT DEAD
AND WOUNDED AT
MOSCOW
HOSPITALS OVERLOOKING
viii Demand Damages for
Buildings Destroyed.
fBv Associated Pressl


Moscow, Jan. 2, via ST. PETERSBURG.
Jan. 3.-It is impossible to ascertain
the total losses of the ten days revolt,
as many of the dead and wounded have
not been reported at the hospitals,
public or private and some of the
bodies were incinerated. But a per-
sonal tour of the hospitals shows that
there were 54S killed and LOGS wound
ed. One hundred and seventy-four of
the injured taken to hospitals have
since died. The troops lost nine kill
ed, OF whom two were officers and
fifty-one wounded. OF the police force
ten were killed and fifteen wounded.
Among the killed or wounded we're a
number OF children the returns gener-
ally showing that innocent persons
suffered the heaviest. The final fig
ures of the casualties will closely ap-
proach $500, the original estimate
made in the dispatches.
The stories of finding great heaps
Of dead, as well as many other sensa-
tional stories printed by the local pa
pers, like the statement that over 400
revolutionists are still holding the Pro-
kharoff mills, turn, after an investiga-
ton, to be untrue. There has been no
fighting at the Trokharoff mills since
Saturday.
An eye witness of the surrender of
the last batch on Sunday says that
two of the ringleaders we're shot with
out even the semblance of trial.
The property OF foreigners in the
Prezna district has been damaged or
destroyed to a considerable extent,
among the losses being five story
brick building belonging to a natural
lied American, M. Strabofuku, who has
lodged with the American consul, Mr..
Smith, a demand for damages against
the government, which has been for
warded to the embassy at st. Peters
burg. Four similar demands for dam
ages have been lodged with the Brit
ish consul and several with the consul
of Germany by British and German
subjects respectively.

aARmA vlRumouE-,

Someone is forever attempting to put
restrictions on Cupid. In a Christmas
sermon to young women DR.. T. s. Han
rahan, rector OF the Sacred Heart
church. Of West Fitchburg. Mass, set
forth lot OF rules for courtship.
Lights in the parlor," he said,
should not be turned down too low.
Don't be stingy with gas. The final
hug sholld be at 10 o'clock sharp.
Young men should not be allowed to
stay later than this hour"
We can imagine the good Doctors
auditors turning up their noses with
the remark that he assumes a great
deal too much.
Ald we can imagine the young men
digging around for a fuller explanation
Of his meaning. Is it supposed that
the average young man, having arrived
at 1880, and "hugged"-( couldn't
the preacher have found some other
word?)-for two and a half hours
would not be willing TO leave for rest
and recuperation? The Rev. Hanra-
han must have had a rather exhausting
time Of 1t in his callower days, if his
sermon was drawn from personal ex-
perience.
Expert testimony from the feminine
side Of the 10 o'clock question is not
lacking, however Mrs. S. M. Cory, of
New York. we believe, who is some
thing or other OF the Society for Po-
litical Study, says she agrees with the
10 O'Clock theory. But observe her
grounds of agreement:
"If a man is obliged to stop in the
middle of his ecstasy" she says, "he is
likely to come back again. whereas,
II he is stated he is likely to hug an
other girl the next night. Therefore,
| say, II you would keep your best beau,
limit your hugs"
Mark you. the preacher proposes the
10 o'clock rule on high moral grounds.
But the political scientist-(what has
political science to do with the matter,
anyhow ?)-agrees with him on the
grounds of mere expediency! One is
inclined to doubt the statement, how.
ever, that a man who had put in sew
eral hours in uninterrupted "hugging'
10, odious wordD-on one evening,
would feel impelled to repeat the ex.
perience so soop as the next night.
This is a country filed with brawny
young men, and brave young men, but,
after all, they are not made of iron.
The Reverend Mr.. Hanrahan and the
scientific Mrs. Cory are engaged in de-
molishing a specter of straw. Young
people don't really have that much

Dress 70 be Pretty.


To youth and health the girl who
wants to be attractive must add the
grace OF neatness and suitable dress.
She should study herself, her good
points, that she may heighten; her
bad points, that she may lessen their
effect
A girl with red lair, for instance.
may so dress herself that she will be
delightful to look at She must learn
to choose the right shade and color.
she must avoid purples, crude pinks
and violent contrasts, but the bronze
browns creams, faint hues and delicate
greens may suit her and bring out the
loveliness Of her complexion and the
rich lights OF her hair.
A stout girl must not wear plaids
poi load her dress with trimmings and
founces. A slender Girl, on the other
hand, should avoid stripes that add TO
her inches.
Attention to shoes and gloves, to
nicely in the matter of neckwear, to
cuffs and collars and the trifies that
give pretty finishing .ouches will
make a girl seem beautiful, when per
haps she has little claim to that DIS
tinction.
This is not a question of good dress
making and a long purse. Lny girl
with a pattern, a pair of scissors and
deft fingers Of her own may dress beau
tfully. Materials are cheap or en-
pensive according TO their lasting quail
tiles. and a girl will often look prettier
IN a simple muslin dress than an elab
crate one of rich material.

THE PRESIDENTS FUTURE.

The Washington Post thus specu-
lates as to Mr.. Rooseyelt's future:
"Mr. Roosevelt is the youngest Of
the presidents. and when he retires in
1903 he will be year. nearly two
years younger than Lincoln was at his
first inaugural. That he will write a
deal of history we feel certain. That
he will again hold office is not quite
so certain, but II is exceeding probable.
The United States senate would be a
good place for him. II would do him
a power Of good TO engage in states
manlike disputation in that august
body with a man like one OF his pre-
deeessors, the late Benjamin Harri-
son"
The idea Of Mr.. Roosevelt In the sen
ate, assisting In blockading the will OF
some energetic gentleman IN the White
House is not without its picturesque
side. But why sentence him 10 the
senate without giving him a chance tc
do something really creditable?
Perhaps he will want TO build the
Panama canal. II win likely still be
to be built in 1909. Mr. Roosevelt hal
up to date evidently been hampered IL
getting that speedy start by the fac
that he can not find just the proper
