But Los Angeles doesn't wish to con-

to come here for that great event, to
join it in its glorious beauty. The rail-
road rates will be low and the time will

CUBAN WAR PENSIONS

1t has been true that the pension roll
of the United States was a roll of
honor, unsullied and undefiled. To a
great extent it is yet But if certain
facts be considered there is danger that
it is at least partly degenerating into
a roll of graft.
There are now more Spanish war
veterans on the pension roll than were In
Skaters entire army in Cuba. This was
the one army in which slaughter was
greater in proportion to its size than
any other in that brief conflict, but no
cne for an instant supposes that every
man in it has claims to pension-and
then some. In the whole Spanish war,
from every cause whatever, there were
only 6610 deaths, including the mortal
ity in camp; of these only SOS died from
wounds or were killed in action. The
total number of casualties-wounds,
deaths, etc, were 937S Yet, for the
Spanish war, there have already been
filed 69,6S7 applications for pensions,
according to the last available figures,
and they are none. too recent!
The Spanish war was over some
seven and one-half years ago. In the
same period of time-seven and one
half years-after the mighty Civil War,
the pension applicants numbered not
one-third as many more, from the four
years bloody fighting. as have asked
for remuneration for the four months
affray of 1898! And in the Civil War
more than seven times as many men
fought fifteen times as long, with the
loss of more than fifty times as many
lives and far greater proportion of
wounded, against foe in every re-
spect their equals, and not against a
crumbling, degenerate monarchy.
These figures are astounding, but are
official and true. They show a very
peculiar state of affairs. Either men 10
longer are as able as once they were
to bear the hardships of war and to
survive it's injuries in a condition to
earn a living, or else the national vice
of graft has so thoroughly perVaded
even our patriotism and has so con-
taminated and tarnished our national
honor that we no longer hesitate to use
the most sacred trust the nation has
to care for its disabled veterans-to
serve mean, contemptible and dis
honest, selfish gain, Which is it?

sPINsTER TAKES STRAY CATS
She Finds Pleasure In BefriendinG
Them Without Reference to
Breed or Color

BETHLEHEM, Pa, March 17.-Some
time ago Miss Amanda Schwartz, spin
ster, who lives alone i'll one of the
handsomest residences in South Beth
lehem,. befriended a homeless cat and
so pleased was she with it's compan-
ionship that she sought out others until
now nearly four dozen felines have full
sway in the Schwartz home. Miss
Schwartz cares little for breed, color
or beauty, but gathers in the stray,
the tramp, the homeless and sickly
wherever opportunities afford and
nurses the ill ones back to health and
makes pets of them all. Seldom does
a cat when gathered into the fold care
to leave.
A visitor to the Schwartz home this
week found in front of the kitchen
range cats each of a different color
and each one occupying a spotless
brick. On top of cupboard beside an
old-fashioned clock with a battered
face sat four more felines. On a near
by table four other outcasts were
doing peacefully. On lounge in "a
dark corner were seven kittens. On
the four chairs, the only ones in the
room, were perched sixteen of the do
mestic animals.
AT the sound of Miss Schwartz's
voice in welcoming the visitor more
cats came from every nook and corner
and from upstairs.
The visitor stayed long enough to
see the cat family given its evening
meal and then departed.

A POINTER FROM PARIS

Paris, recognized as the show place,
the "city beautiful" of Europe, is 60
ing in for wooden pavements on it's
boulevards, in preference to any other
sort. Wood is found, when properly
laid and treated, to be more sanitary,
less noisy, cheaper and safer than as
phalt, stone, brick or macadam. Re-
garding it, the Municipal Journal said
recently:
The wood mostly used is pine wood,
grown in the forests of France. 1t is
delivered in deals at the city stores
where by special machinery it is cut
up into blocks, the usual size being
six inches deep by nine inches by three
inches. 1t is then passed through the
creosoting tanks and stored to be ready
for use. This paving is always laid
on concrete foundation six inches to
seven inches thick, finished to the de-
sired convexity with fine cement. The
surface of this foundation, as we saw
it on the Rue de Temple, was foated,
beautifully smooth and true, like
finished floor. The paving blocks are
then laid hard on this surface (without
any sand). The paver, with a hatchet
in hand, deftly lifts the blocks with
it one by one, places them in position
in a row, and so quickly does he do
this that he almost walks, as it were,
from side to side, completing a row as
he goes The blocks are spaced in the
rows with thin strips of wood. When
a few rows have been laid, the strips
are withdrawn and hot coal tar or
pitch, to the depth of one inch, is
poured in, simply for the purpose of
steadying the blocks, which are then
Grouted up with the fluid cement and

WORLD
GOULD MONUMENTAL LINE
is NEARLY COMPLETED
Only 15o Miles Gap In System Stretch
ing from Atlantic to Pacific.
General News of the
Railways

With the completion of the construc-
ton of the Western Pacific railroad,
there will be only $50 miles gap in the
great transcontinental lines of the
Goulds. This gap is between the Wa
bash at Pittsburg and the Western
Maryland in West Virginia.
All of the eastern parts of the Gould
system are controlled by the Wabash.
That George J. Gould may have addi-
tional plans is suggested by the fact
that some of his advisers have drawn
his attention to n means of bringing
the Wabash on to New York city from
Buffalo.
The name of the Goulds is a well
known one, but the system is even
greater than most people suppose. Few
realize that the system Is 10000 miles
in length and is mightier force than
Just the figures suggest.
1t will not only stretch across the
continent from Baltimore and perhaps
Philadelphia to San Francisco, but will
touch the Great lakes at Chicago, the
Gulf of Mexico at New Orleans and
Galveston, and the Mexican boundary
at Ladero and El Paso, and with the
new line now projected from El Paso
to San Diego, will again touch the
Pacific at the latter place.
When the Western Pacific is COM
their strongest competitor. While the
Gould line is ninety-seven miles longer
between Salt Lake City and San Fran
cisco, yet it has the advantage of lower
grades.
Railroad men all have their eyes on
the Goulds and are now forced to
acknowledge them the coming leaders
in future railroad construction and
operation.
The Gould enterprises may be best
outlined by the following routes:
Baltimore to Pittsburg; Baltimore
and Pittsburg to Chicago, st. Louis,
Kansas City, Des Moines and Omaha:
Omaha to Pueblo, Denver, Salt Lake
City and Ogden; Salt Lake City to
Santa Fe and Salt Lake City to San
Francisco.
Chicago, st. Louis and Kansas City
to Memphis, Little Rock. New Orleans,
Galveston, Dallas, Fort Worth, La
redo and FL Paso and projected to
San Diego.
From the Atlantic coast at Baltimore
to the Pacific coast at San Francisco
and San Diego.
From Pittsburg to Toledo, Detroit.
Buffalo and Chicago, on the Great
lakes. From Chicago, on the Great
southwest on the Mississippi.
From Chicago, st. Louis and Kansas
City to New Orleans and Galveston on
the Gulf of Mexico. From Chicago, st.
Louis and Kansas City to Laredo and
FL Paso on the Mexican border, and
projected to San Diego on the Pacific.

fine sand (about half and half), until
the joints are perfectly filed. The ce-
ment grout is used in preference to
pitch, as it does not melt in hot
weather and gives much better foot
hold to the horses.
1t might be we'll for Los Angeles to
lcok into the merits Of this sort of
pavement. Its life, under heavy
traffic and in. the variable climate of
Paris, is ten years, and it would be
longer here. Redwood, which is easily
obtainable here, is more lasting than
the pine used in Paris. Why wouldn't
it be we'll to try stretch OF wood paw
ing in Los Angeles that its merits may
be ascertained?

SCOTTY'S SHOW
PACKS HOUSES
SEATTLE TURNED OUT TO SEE
THE PARADE
Actor-MIner's Realistic Acting, the
Alaska Wolf and Dogs and the
Death Valley Sand Storm
Please Auditors

Rol King, private manager Tor
"Scotty'' and manager of the "Scotty,
King of the Death Valley" show, re-
turned to Los Angeles Saturday after
noon on the Owl. which arrived late on
account of washouts north of Bakers
field.
Mr.. King has been in Seattle to attend
the opening of the play and says that
it made one of the greatest hits that
have been made in that place this
season.
Mr.. King says that people clamored
for seats the first night and that the
house was packed, chairs put in the
aisles and all of the available stand
ing room was sold and still people had
to be turned away. The house was
filled to it's full capacity during his
entire stay in the city for both matinee
and evening performances.
He says that the street parade has
proved 20 be an attractive feature and
that thousands have witnessed 1t every
day.
Not only has "Scotty mace hit by
his free natural acting but the play
in itself has taken. One scene, that or
Death valley and the sand storm, Is
most realistic.
With the play is Eli Smith, United
States mail carrier of Nome, Alaska,
WITH his Twelve uOSS, LIlS lCdbVi' w
which is a full blood Alaska timber
wolf.
This wolf has saved Smiths life a
number of times by his instinct. once
Smith had lost the trail and wished to
go in one direction, believing that 1t
would lead him to the trail. The WOLF
refused to go that way even after he
had given it a severe beating. When
he gave the wolf his head the animal
lead him back to the trail. Smith
found afterward that If he had gone
in the direction that he wished to he
would have gotten into river OF
broken ice within a few miles.
Permission had to be gained from the
United States government in order to
secure Smith and his pack of dogs.
Mr.. King says that "Scotty' never
says the same thing twice and that
every show is different. Also, that the
scene where "Scotty" is chartering the
train to take him to Chicago is an i'll
teresting one.
"Scotty insists on buying new
clothes for every performance and is
always looking for a red necktie that
is more brilliant than the last one
which he bought.
