The Key West Railroad.

The extension of the Florida East
Coast Railroad from Miami to Key
West, 156 miles, is one of the greatest
feats of American engineering Mr.
Henry M. Flagler decided upon it as
the completion of his lifework of devel-
oping F1orida's east coast, to which he
has devoted 23>years. During that time
he has wrought a transformation in the
semi-tropical jungle, making it into a
beautiful garden spot, where thousands
of tourists flock to spend the Winter
His idea was to facilitate passage direct

"BiE stick" for Roosevelt.


President, .Rooseyelts big stick" is
now physical fact, as well as a figure
of speech, owing to the thoughtfulness
of Col. Royal E. Whitman, retired
officer of the u S. Army. When the
unpleasantness happened between the
States, Col Whitman went South at the
head of the 30th Me. In the course of
his travels he often saw what came to
be known as the Long Bridge across
the Potomac. and it appealed to him.
History sayeth not whether it appealed
to him in the same way that it did to a
good many other Northern soldiers
when they were in haste to get across
the river to the Northern side, but, at
any rate, he set great store upon it. And
when, last year, it was determined to
tear down the historic old structure. he
sought an exclusive concession to work
up the timber into canes.
He got the concession, and now Pres

There are some very common tninSs
in which science seems to make no
progress whatever in discovering causes.
One of these is a bald head. and every
announcement of a cause only confuses
the matter worse. Some years ago ii
went the rounds of all the papers that
blowing a brass horn in the band had
a tendency to keep the hair on man
head, and it was asked with an air OF
triumph "Who ever saw a bald-headed
player of a wind Instrument" Now
what are claimed to be scientists in
Paris assure US that violin playing has
a great influence in promoting the
growth of the hair. and they say that
while many horn players are bald. 70
one ever saw a bald violinist. Possibly
some time some man will rise who ac-
taally knows something about the mat
ter to give us information that is worth
having.
A French chemist has startled the
Academy of Science by announcing
new process for making diamonds. The
process is sngularly simple. and theo
reticaliy has much in it of promise. 1t
sends a feeble electric current for sew
eral days thru tube from which the
air is exhausted and which is filled with
sulfid of carbon with some iron filings.
The sulfur leaves the carbon to attack
the iron, and the carbon having nothing
else to do crystallizes into diamonds.
The chemist showed some very small
diamonds made in this way which are
said to equal in light and brilliancy
natural diamonds.
The japanese make vegetable milk
out of sofa beans. The beans ar. soft
ened by boiling and then pressed and
drained. They give milk looking ex
actly like the product of cows, hut diff
ferent in composition. When sugar and
a little phosphate of soda are added

milk is made which is hardly distin-
guishable from real milk, tho it retains
