New Route To Orient.

Not many people realize, because OF

transcontinental line will be open FOR

route to the Pacific coast Is the Kan

forming a line from Kansas City, Mo-.
to the port of Topolobampo, near the
mouth of the Gulf Of California The
course Is directly southwest from Kan

AUSTRALIANS LEAN YEARS.
Lavish Spending During the country's
Prosperous and Booming Times.

Prosperous and Booming Times.
OF conditions in Melbourne and
Australia generally a recent traveller
writes, says the Chicago News: "A run
by steamer down the Yarra Yarra riv-
er showed with what a lavish hand
money had been spent during the
great building boom Of the early nine
ties. There were miles of wharves
and quays, without ship or any sign
Of trade, but all waiting for the good
time coming. Australia, indeed, has
passed through some lean years. In
the early nineties the land and build
ing boom burst and nearly all the
banks broke, thousands being reduced
to poverty, while trade and commerce
greatly diminished.
Then, just as recovery was coming,
fearful drouth began and lasted for
a long time, sheep and cattle dying by
millions. One man we met told US
how he had watched his sheep dwin-
die from $4,000 to 5000 before the
rain came. Now the rains are abund-
ant again and Australia has entered
on another period Of prosperity; but
II Is likely that another drouth Will
come in less than twenty years, when
the same ruin may be repeated.
Nothing but a series Of storage
reservoirs on a large scale will meet
the drouths, which appear to come In
cycles Of about thirteen years. SO
bad are the effects Of these drouths
that in ten years the population OF
Melbourne increased by only 5000;
the females increased Is, 200, but the
males diminished by $4,000, showing
what a vast number of men must have
left in search of work.

WOODEN FORTUNES.
Most Valuable 10 the Famous Rose
Tree of Hildesheim.

When Thwaites oak, said to be the
finest tree in Norfolk, was sold some
years ago, the trunk alone fetched R44.
The branches sold for R28, while the
bark and chips realized another eco
So the whole tree fetched more than
eco, a sum which would have been
greatly exceeded had the cost of get
ting such a mass of timber to its des-
tination not been so great. The
trunk alone weighed more than twenty
tons, and II took 14-horse power en-
gine day and a half to get II to the
road, says London Answers.
Oak Is the most valuable Of any
British timber. but its value is small,
indeed, compared with that Of foreign
woods used for veneering and other
ornamental work of the kind. About
five years ago there were sold in Liv-
erpool two logs Of African mahogany,
which between them composed the
trunk of one tree, for the immense
sum Of 91,536. The grain of this spe-
cial tree was extraordinarily fine, and
cut into veneers these two mighty logs
now grace the dining room Of Park
Lane mansion, being used in place of
wallpaper.
The famous rose tree Of Hlldesheim,
in Germany. which has been growing
and blooming since the year 1922
against the side Of the famous old
Church Of st. Michael, has the honor
OF being the tree for which the record
sum has been offered. Some years
ago an American millionaire offered
$4,000 down for the tree as It stood
Phlegmatic as the Germans are, the
enterprising westerner was really
rather fortunate in getting of with
his life. AS great favor, shoots are
sometimes sold, and these realize very
large prices.
The average man who sees camelia
blossoms in florists windows at six
pence apiece would not mind owning
the camelia tree which grows at Pil-.
metz, near Dresden, and Is ono Of the
sights Of the district. It was imported
from japan about the middle Of the
18th century, and at present stands
just over 50 feet high. It has an an
nual average Of 10000 blossoms, which
II sold at Cd. apiece. would realize
exactly $1,000!
