c. P. R. AGENT.
VISITS CITY
-
Canadian Co. Reduces Time Between
Spokane and st. Paula Trip
Of Rare Iscauty.

From Wenatchee to ST. Paul in 53
hours and 80 minutes.
That's what the C. P. r. has prom
| ised.
NJ. G. Murphy, Esq, of Winnipeg,
Manitoba, general travelling passen-
ger agent for the Canadian Pacific
Railway compny, was in the city yes
terday, arranging for representa-
tion for his company.
| The C. P. R. has long been ia
nous among travelled people for the
speed OF it's trains and ocean steam
ships, and for their uniformly high
class equipment.
Its new train between Spokane
and st. Paul makes the run, it is
said, in less time than any other
through train, covering the distance
in 53 " hours.
The picturesque hotels along the
Canadian Pacific railway are one of
the most pleasant features of the
trip. No one who has made the
scenic journey from Winnipeg to
Vancouver but remembers well the
numerous chateau-like hotels which
nestle in cosy valleys along the noun
famous portions of the road. The
meals and service in these hostelries
bear little resemblance to the aver
age railway hotel; they seem more
like exclusive summer resorts.
Mr.. Murphy is gentleman of
pleasing personality, and was open.

aubonic Plague.

San Francisco is dealing in the right
way with the present outbreak of the
bubonic plague. Five years ago. when
cases of this terrible disease occurred
in San Francisco, there was, for time
at least, a disposition to conceal and
minimize the epidemic; but experience
soon showed, as has been proven en-
phatically in yellow fever visitations
in the south, that the way to fight dis
ease is to fight it openly, and that the
way to avoid panic is to publish hon.
est and complete reports, says the
Outlook. DR.. Rupert Blue, OF the
United States public health service,
IL in charge of the present fight with
the plague, and is vigorously enforcing
modern, scientific methods. While the
ratio of deaths to cases is absolutely
large, it is less than has been noted
in epidemics elsewhere, and the sys-
TEN of serum injection is regarded as
of value. The terrible mortality usu
ally attendant upon bubonic plague Is
Offset in some measure by the fac'
that its spread is slow. 1t is believed
that infection is largely caused by
rats, and that from them 1t is spread
in many cases by feas, which carr.

The British youth of the present
generation IL not in quite so bad q
way as the recent discussions of physi-
cal deterioration would indicate. At
tention was lately called to the inter-
esting condition revealed by study
of the measurements of the schoolboys
at Marlborough for the past 20 years.
The 14-year-old boys of 1906 are five
pounds heavier and one and one-half
inches taller than boys of the same
age In 1886, and the 16-year-old boys
are eight pounds heavier and three
fourths of an inch taller. A halter
who provides hats for the boys in six
schools says that few years ago ne
rarely was asked for hat 21a inches
in circumference, but now he is FIRE
auently called upon for hats an inch
larger. 1t is not at all unlikely thai
the revelation of the poor physique o.
the British youth that followed thu
Boer war recruiting aroused parents
to a sense of the importance of gettini
their boys into the fresh air, wher'
they could take a proper amount o
wholesome exercise.

Some persons mean that which cannot

underlies most of the criticisms OF ed

sit on an office stool for 40 years and
then have a pension; for such lie
