pany for right-of-way, but bridges
having a greater span must be
strengthened before tracks are laid.
Where tracks interfere with ditch
es or fences, the traction company
must change the course of the ditch
es and rebuild the fences to the sat
isfaction of property owners.
Actual construction Of the system
will probably start about April 1, If
not sooner. The rails for the line
are on the way from the east and
are expected to arrive daily.
The system of the Inter-v Valley
Traction company, while now en-
bracing large area proposed to be
tapped by the tracks, will ultimately
cover an immense territory If plans
are carried out. Included will be a
complete line to the Columbia river,
which will connect with the river
boats and give North Yakima a
quick outlet for its produce to all of
the principal markets Of the world

Scores on board the lena jumped
overheard onto the stone quays of
the dock and sustained serious in
juries. The primary cause Of the
accident was the premature explos-
ion of torpedo. What caused the
explosion is not known, but the
powder magazines were set on fire
and the resulting explosions prac-
tically destroyed what is considered
one of the best vessels in the French
navy. The crew had finished the
midday meal only a short time be-
fore and had dispersed to various
parts of the ship.
The first shock shook the vessel
fore and aft. 1t was followed i'm
mediately by others. The crew
rushed wildly about the dack. The
men forward attending lecture
clamborai over the bulwarks and
jumped down, some of them into the
dock and others onto the stone quay,
many of them being fatally hurt
Hundreds of men below decks were
enshrouded in smoke and while
they CROPPED their way upward to the
exits many fell unconscious.
Flying missiles demolished the tor
pedo house Of the arsenal, the en-
CINE works and the pump house near
by and constituted serious menace
to the lives of those who made their
way toward the battleship to begin
the work of rescue.
Amidst the masses of dense smoke
the search for the dead and wounded
began. The lower decks of the lena
were Uttered with fragments of
shattered and torn bodies, while the
surrounding water was dotted with
human fragments. 1t is impossible
to ascertain the exact number of
killed and wounded until tomorrow
when the roll call will be held.

The Way the Potent Drug Affects tho

mo one is likely to be caught in the
act of doping horse" said a promi-
nent veterinarian the other day, be
cause the dose given is SO small that 1t
can be administered under the very
eyes of the officials. with little if any
danger of detection. and, besides, it is
given so long before the race that the
horses are not then likely to be under
surveillance. If horse is to race at
3 o'clock he gets two grain powder
on his tongue in a darkened stall at !
o'clock The drug takes effect in about
thirty minutes, and the animal breaks
out into a sweat He is rubbed down,
cooled out and done up as if he had
come in from morning work. Every
effort is made to keep him quiet until
post time, but he very often breaks out
again and is again cooled out. The
doped horse never takes any warming
up work, and this fact affords the best
means / know of for finding him out.
He is moved slowly to the starting
point, great care being taken to pre-
vent him from becoming excited until
the flag is dropped. Then kick and
dig do the work, and in an instant
the full force Of the dope is felt. stinu-
lating the animal 10 run the race of his
life.
after the race an antidote is usual
ly given, but il is sometimes well along
in the night before the excited horse
regdins his normal condition. The
strain on the nervous system is terrific
