PLAN SCENIC LINE
 INTO GRAND CANYON

R. P. Parker, with a party of twelve surveyors, is running lines along the canyon edge at Grand Can yon. with a view to determining the approximate cost of a railroad show ing the scenic properties of the won. derful Grand Canyon. A drop into the canyon down the lower bench overlooking the river is also cOntem- plated and the surveys will include this line also.
 The present plan Is to run line ten miles each way from the Fl Tovar. making the drop into the Can yon somewhere near the hotel. A broad gauge road bed is to be laid, and it is the intention of the promot- CTS to run their trains so that it will be possible to see the canyon in one day. Under the present conditions, says the Williams News, it is neces- sary to make tiresome burrO ride down a steep trail if one would see the sights which nature has bcqueath- ed. The ride is necessarily a slow and tedious one, and many hundreds of tOrists who greatly desire to see the canyon "on the ground floor are deterred from doing so on account of this trip.
 The scenic railroad will Obviate all these unpleasant features by afford ing to all sight-seers a much wider and more comprehensive idea of this wonderful cleft in the earth's surface. The estimated cost along the surface is now 8 900 a mile This is eXclu- sive of any equipment. The drop into the canyon, which may be an oblique descent practically in a straight line, will add greatly to the figure which the promoters have calculated to be necessary. What the final decision of the company will be is at present not known.
 It is understood that Kansas City capitalists are back of the scheme, and that all territory and government rights-of-way have been secured. The survey will last about two months.

sons who had motored for couple O days in succession showed an iF' crease of nearly million corpusclel while on the eight day of the Jour ney their blood contained some siy million seNen hundred thousand reC earpuscles per cubic milimetre.
 This increase was still more pro nounced in anaemic persons. in whom the red corpuscles after a few days of motoring are sometimes doubled The iron which is usually given tC anaemia persons does not act either so quickly or so surely.
 Dr. Mouneyat also states that mo toring is of great value to consump tives in whom the disease is no vel advanced. and in whom the impOver ished blood makes the lungs an easy prey to bacilli of the disease. The motoring exercise enriches the blood and fills the lungs with oxygen, while the appetite increases, the process ui thinning is stopped, and the cough ceases and the strength returns.
 Kings like ordinay mortals, are very fond of gardens and gardening. The German Emperor. who is an enthusi astic gardener, is fond. as one might expect from his character. of plants that grow quickly, while the practi. cal bent of his mind gives him spe' cial taste for kitchen gardens.
 The King of Italy, who is also an ardent and lively monarch, is very fond of annual plants which are not very long in growing and the rooms of his private apartments are always filled with vases of these. King Vic tor Emmanual is particularly fond of walking about in the gardens of the Quirinal watering with his own royal hand his favourite blooms.
 King Edward VII is, as is well known an adOrer of flowers. and there is at Sandringham a waterfall and a shrubbery of rare plants which he himself planted. while his Majesty had he not been a sovereign, might have earned no bad living as a land scape gardener. such skill and taste has he in laying out gardens and par. terres.
 Queen WIlhelmina is especially de voted to rare blooms, and when she became engaged, unique flower. the only one of it's kind in Europe, and the pride of the Royal conservatorte3, was the gage of love offered TO the Prince Consort.
 The late. King of Denmark, though he liked flowers, preferred the aspect of beautiful umbrageous park. The late Shah of Persia had somewhat similar tastes and only a few days before his death was examining some plants for the making of wonuerful garden on the royal estate.
 King Leopold shows a preference. which is not unnaturaly. in the King of the Flemish. for bulboIs plants tulips, hyacinths, and sucn like. As for ai. Fsllieres, his favo-ite pltnt is tile vine, which is not unna=nrcl. zee ing that his vineyards in Gasc1Ey madc his a wealthy man.

MAN WHO WAS KILLED WENT
WHILE INTOXICATED TO THE
HOME OF THE MAN WHO HAD
THREATENING LETTERS.

William Charles, colored, was shot
and almost instantly killed by Harry
Jones, also colored, yesterday after
noon near Millview. The man who
committed the deed. and who is
charged by the coroner's jury with
murder, is at large. There were nc
eye witnesses to the tragedy. The
bullet passed through the heart, and
although Charles walked from the
house to the yard he fell there and
died without uttering word.
I'm House of jones'.
Charles and Jones We're both single
men. and, it was stated yesterday af-
ternoon, had been at outs over a
woman residing in the neighborhood
Yesterday afternoon Charles, who is
a more powerful man that Jones,
went to the home of the latter 1t
was stated that he had been imbib-
ing rather freely in celebrating the
Fourth, and negroes residing near said
that shortly after he entered Jones's
place they heard some one later call
ing for help, and moment afterward
the report of a revolver.
Then Charles was seen TO stagger
his breast, and taking few steps
in the yard fell. He was followed out
by Jones, who, with revolver in hand
said: You had no business coming
into my house to lick me-" He then
closed the doors and windows of his
honse placed the revolver on a table
and walked away.
Was to Surrender.
Jones was seen about an hour at
forwards on the Millview road, COM
ing towards Pensacola. He told some
colored people that he was on his way
TO surrender.
Sheriff Van Pelt, Deputy Johnson
and Coroner Nicholson left the city
as soon as they received in forma-
ton of the killing, and upon their
arrival az the place a coroner's jury
was summoned. Finding that Jones
lad come towards the city, the sher-
if and deputy started a search for
him, but it was unsuccessful. Tele-
grams were sent to various sections
OF the county informing deputies of
the homicide and giving description
of the negro.
Letters in Evidence.
Letters of a threatening character.
which had been received by Charles,
were taken before the jury, and YER
dict of murder in the first degree was
retained. One OF these letters, which
was shown the sheriff and some OF his
deputies several weeks since by
Charles. warned the latter to leave
Millview, and that another warning
would not be sent. On the piece OF
paper were drawn in crude manner
n coffin, skull and knife
