when anishad as planned, will pro-
vide 4 new route through the noun
tains to the Pacific coast.
Two companies are associated in |
the railroad and mining properties.
Henry Koehler Jr., is president OF
both companies. The. railroad pop
ularly known as the Rocky Mountain
Route, is Incorporated as the st. Louis,
Rocky Mountain & Pacific Railway
Company, and is capitalized at SS,-
500, COO. The St. Louis, Rocky Moun-
tain & Pacific Company owns the
mines and holds controlling interest
in the railroad. This company is
capitalized at 81, 100000
The coal lands comprise 522, 600
acres, and front thirty eight miles on
the Colorado State line. The capac-
ity of the mines is estimated at 2,6OO,-
600 tons of coal.
Construction on the railroad is now
progressing in Union and ColfaX
counties, New Mexico. By October
/, the line will be in operation from
Ration to Clifton House, on the Santa
Fe, to point near the Moreno Val
ley, at the western boundary of Col

AS soon as the extension to Moreno
Valley is completed, construction will
proceed in the direction of Taos, in
in the Taos valley. This part of the
line will, as was stated in The Repub-
hc several months ago, run through
the Pueblo Indian Reservation.
Through extensions or other arrange
ments the road will ultimately carry
traffic destined to points on the Paci-

CATS EYES TELL THE TIME.
Secret Long Known to the Chinese
Given to a French Traveller.

So long as there is a cat anywhere
near it is not necessary to have a
watch or a clock, for the animals
eyes will tell you the time of day.
The first European to learn of the
use of a cat as a time Indicator was
NJ. Hue, who, in a work on the Chi
nese empire, tells how he vas mi
tiated into the mystery.
NJ. Hue and a party Of friends set
out to visit a Chinese Christian mis-
sion settlement among the peasantry.
They met a young Chinaman on the
road and to test his intelligence they
asked him if he could tell them the
time. The native looked up at the
sky, but the clouds hid the sun from
view and he couldn't read any an
swer there. Suddenly he darted away
to a farm and returned in a few mo-
ments with a cat in his arms. Push
ing up its eyelids with his hand he
told Hue to look at them, at the same
time volunteering the information
that it was not noon yet. While they
were puzzling over the case the boy
went about his business.
When the party reached the vii
lage they asked the Christian con-
Herts if they could tell the time by
a cats eyes and how it was done.
Immediately there was a wild hunt
and all the cats Obtainable in the
neighborhood were brought before
them.
The Chinese pointed out that the
pupils Of a cats eyes were gradually
narrower up to 10 noon, when they
became scarcely peroeptible lines,
drawn perpendicularly across the
eye and after that dilation recon-
menced. Hue examined the eyes of
several cats and verified what the
Chinese had told him.

CORAL REEFS ON o o
The Bed of Lunar Oceans, According
to Astronomers.

The strangeness Of the scenery of
the moon and the enormous size of
its crater-shaped mountains have led
some astronomers to think that its
past history must have been quite
different from that Of the earth.
This, however, is not the opinion of
the French scientists, Loewy and
Puiseux, who, in a recent communi-
cation to the Academy Of Sciences,
say that a study of the latest lunar
photographs tends to show hat the
condition Of the moons surface has
been produced by the action of the
same natural forces now at work on
the earth.
Every one who has seen a chart of
the moon as drawn by astronomers
knows of the curious, irregular, rag
ged rings that have been called
''moon craters" for many years.
Now astronomers have raised the
question whether or not they are
really the %craters of extinct vol
canoes, as has been supposed for SO
long. One of the scientists asks,
'How would the ocean bottoms Of
the earth appear to a man in the
moon if all our seas were to disap-
pearl"
Exactly the same as the moor
craters look to u.s." is the answer.
Consequently certain astronomer
are now engaged in attempts tt
prove that the moons curious sur
face is not all volcanic and that thu
"eraters" are nothing more or les
than coral reefs and the remains O.
other coral-like structures that havI
been left high and dry by the evapor
alton Of lunar oceans.

A UNIQUE ENDING.

The following story was told by a
woman who was for many years at
the head of one Of the smaller coll
leges for women.
A representative Of a large music
publishing house came on a business
errand to the school, which is quite
removed from the town, and was in
vited to remain to tea.
The principals table, No. 1,
dominates the long room, and three
times a day several hundred heads
are bowed while grace is being said
at this table. All visitors ar taken
there, and the music man when seat
ed was asked to say grace.
Determined that no false move
should imperil the business pros
poets of his house, he boldly waded
in He went on and on heads re-
manned bowed, and still the man
continued, unable to find a fitting
peroration.
Finally, in desperation, he con-
cluded a blessing that became his
toric in that institution with
"Yours truly, Oliver Dawson
Co ."-Lippincotts.

INJURED REscUlNG DOG.

Lou Sorenson, a bridge carpenter
working on a bridge this side of
Gladstone, Mimi, was struck by a
passing 500 train and thrown into
the Heart River. He was dragged
out of the water and while critically
injured it is not thought that he
will die as a result Of the accident.
Mr.. Sorenson's love for a pet dog
was what caused the accident. The
dog had followed its master out on
the bridge where he was at work,
and when the train approached the
dog apparently became panicstrick-
en- and stood stock still in the mid
die of the track. Sorenson FASTENED
to its rescue but could not get out
Of the way of the train quick enough
to escape injury to himself, al
though the dog was not hurt.

MUSIC AND MEMORY.

Sir Walter Parratt, the master of

some musical friends at Tenbury
some years ago. To while away the
evening chess was suggested, and
Sir Walter proposed that he should
sit at the piano and play from MEM
DRY, while he opposed two friends
on the chessboard at the same time.
The challenge was accepted, and,
with his back to the board, Sir Wal
ter sat at the piano and played
Chopin and Mendelssohn, calling
out his moves whenever necessary.
He won his game in three-quarters

BIRDS ON THEIR MIGRATION.
Mysteries Of Aerial Flights Are Hid
den from Man.

Night and soaring distance con-
ceal from inquiring man the great
focSs Of migrating birds that pass
every spring to their breeding
grounds and return in the fall for a
season Of rest to the temperate SOUTH
ern and tropical regions.
The lighthouses claim many VIC
Tins during the long migrations,
and unusual storms often drive the
bewildered travellers to their destruc-
ton. The snow clouds that crossed
our southern peninsula last week
seemed to have interrupted or OBJ
scured the strang power Of vision
hat guides the birds on their south
ward course, and the shore of Lake
Huron was strewn with thousands
Of victims, says the Toronto Globe.
From the diminutiye kinglets to the
robins, sparrow hawks and small
owls the reports of observers show
a wide variety, the white threats be-
ing among the most numerous. All
these birds manifest so much indif-
ference toward climatic conditions,
except as affecting their food supply,
that it is not likely the hurrying
cold could have chilled or exhausted
them.
In a driving snowstorm the swift
travellers may unconsciously lower
their course and collide with various
distinctions. Almost every storm
in the migrating season brings rec
ords that show the passing Aocks
prone to swerye toward the earth and
dash against windows and other, en-
ticing dangers. The mysteries of
these aerial flights are yet to be I'M
rayeled. The calamities of storms
shed occasional light on them, and
sometimes across the field of an in
quirer's telescope a familiar flock
may pass. Still the great emigration
remains unknown, and humanity is,
as Of old, bafied by the mystery of
the way Of a bird in the air.

TO PRESERVE FOOD
PERFECT CLEANLINESS is, OF
COURSE, FIRST REQUISITE.
All Receptaeles Should Re Thoroughly
Aired at Frequent lntervals-Prop-
err Procedure When Scraps
Are Put Away for Flu
ture Use.


Perfect cleanliness is essential for
the best preservation Of food. The
cellars, pantries, storerooms, 1efrig-
orators and all the receptacles in
which food is kept should frequently
be inspected and thoroughly cleaned.
Heat and moisture tend to u de-
cay, Therefore, it is important that
all foods should be surrounded with
pure, cool, dry air. When it is pos
sible, expose every closet and food
receptacle to the sun and air several
times a week.
All kinds Of cooked food, partlcu-
larly the animal foods, spoil quickly
when covered closely while still warm.
All soups, meat, fish, bread, ETC., that
are to be kept for many days or hours
should be cooled thoroughly and
quickly in a current of cold air.
In hot weather it is a good plan,
when cooling soups, milk or any IL
quid mass, to place the vessel contain
ing the food in another of cold wa
ter with ice, if convenient, and set
in a cool draught. All meat, when
not hung up, should be placed on a
dish and set in a cool place. If poul-
try be drawn and a few pieces of char
coal be placed in the body it will
keep longer than if hung undrawn.
1t must not be washed until it is to
be cooked. The dryer the meat is
kept the better.
A dish of charcoal placed in the re-
frigerator or pantry helps to keep the
atmosphere dry and sweet. The
bread box should be washed, scalded
and thoroughly aired in the sun twice
a weeA.
The crusts and stale pieces OF white
raised bread for which there is no 9TH
er use should be put in a pan, dried
slowly in a warm oven, and then
pounded, sifted and put in a glass
jar for future use in frying croquettes,
chops, oysters, etc. All the trim
mings of fat should be rendered while
they are sweet, then strained into jars
or pals kept for that purpose. Put
beef, pork and chicken fat together;
this will answer for deep frying. Ham,
bacon and sausage fat answers for
frying potatoes, hominy, mush, etc.
All the strong favored fats, such as
mutton, duck, turkey and the trim
mings from broiled ham are to be kept
by themselves.
Pure fat will keep sweet many
months, but if water or any foreign
substance be left in 1t, it will spoil
quickly, When rendering or clarity
ing fat cool it slowly until there are
no bubbles. AS long as bubbles form
you may be sure that there is water
in the fat. If put away in that condi-
ton it will become rancid.
