A Voluntary Two-Cent Fare.

Announcement is made that the
Burlington railroad, within ten
days, will put in operation a two
cent fare schedule regardless of
whether the states have passed a
two-cent fare law. This road ira
verses the states of Illinois, Iowa,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Da-
kota, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado,
Wyoming and Montana. A big
force of clerks is busily engaged in
preparing the schedule. which will
be put into effect as soon as com
pleted The Burlington is one of
the most progressive roads in the
country and its action will doubt
less cause other lines in the same
territory to take similar steps.
1t would not be surprising if this
action should result in demonstrat-
ing the lack of reason in the con-
tentions of some roads that they
could not operate protita oily with
such rates. +.

A Colorado politician was asked

after digging for a few moments
he returned to the house and said
he had found coin. He washed
the dirt off and it proved to be Il

jeans and went back to work. Pres
emily he came back to the house
again and said that he had found
another coin. He washed the dirt
off and this time it was silver

A Remarkable Year.
Pueblo Chieftain.

Pueblo Chieftain.
With the beginning of last week.
Uncle Sam closed the books of his
business year and opened new ac-
counts for the next twelve months
and the tale of the past year is of
exceptional importance. All the
governments great financial tran
sactions have been on larger
scale than ever before. The re-
ports on the governments income
and expenditures distance the fig
ures for former years. According
to the final figures the estimates
of the governments surplus for the
fiscal year, made by the secretary
of the treasury in his annual re-
port to congress last December.
fell short by S27,ooO,OO0, though at
that early date he estimated that
the receipts would exceed the ex-
penditures by S5S,OOO,OOO.
This was the best guess that
could be made at the time, and was
based on the figures of the first
five months Of the fiscal year For
the fiscal year, which ended last
Sunday, the receipts of the govern
ment exceeded its expenditures by
SS5,0OO,OOO. This surplus is un-
usually large when compared with
S25 100000 for 1906, or with a de-
ficit of 23.OOO,0OO in 1905, deficit
of 100000 in 1904 or surplus
of S54, 100000 in 1903. The 1907
surplus is larger than any since
1889 when it was SSS,OOO,OOO, or
1902 when it was S9l 100000.
The total foreign trade of the
country has attained n record that |
far surpasses former showings
In 1906 the total export and i'm
port trade aggregated S3,0O0,0OO,-
900 and left all former figures far
behind. But the total for 1907
will pass the S3,30O,000,OOO mark.
and in both exports and imports
this years record will surpass ali
former showings. In the manu-
factures the competition is partic-
llarly active and the record shows
that the United States is making
gains in this depart
nent of foreign trade.
The bank clearings and railroad
are taken as fair indica-
ion of our prosperity, and for the
,ear Just ended surpass all former
'ecords. There has also been IA big

1t frequently happens at this
time of year that horses fail to
shed. Usually such animals have
been fed too heavy grain ration
during the winter The best way
to correct the trouble is to feed ii

four quarts of this mixture add IA
large handful of oil meal Every
morning the animal should have "A

WHAT ARE DEUCES WORTH?

The divorce courts OF Indiana have
had introduced a new ground upon
which a woman may apply for a legal
separation from her more or less erring
spouse. At Indianapolis a woman al
leges in her COMPLAINT that her hus.
band was not possessed of sufficient
Judgment to estimate the commercial
value of a pair of deuces and that he
had been known to hazard heavily and
persistently on an ace full when he
had been notified hat his adversary
was in open, notorious II undisputed
possession of two pair of queens. II
will be mighty interesting to read the
decision of the court upon this I'M
portant matter. American people are
holding on in breathless suspense
awaiting a ruling as to just what this
recreant M wayward worser half
should have done with his deuces, and
as to just what their commercial val
ne in a certain precarious ~exigency
was. If the court fixes a value, it is
to be hoped that the decision may be
appealed, in order that this vital point
may be passed by the highest court in
the land.

A Little CIothespln Lore.

Clothespins that have been boiled
for ten or fifteen minutes will out
last those that have not been sub
jected to this process. After using.
clothespins should not be left exposed
to the air and dust, but put away
clean and dry. Many careless maids
have a s~enseless practice of tossing
them on the ground when taking down
the clothes. To avoid this, make her
q clothespin bed-ticking apron, with
a large pocket across the bottom. Be-
fore going out to hang Or take in the
clothes, tie this about the waist, hay
ing the pocket filled with pins when
going out. and instruct her to put the
pins directly in when taking down
| the clothes. In cold weather aching
fingers can be prevented by heating
the pins in the ven just before going
out to hang the clothes.

COLE LOST IN SHIPMENT.
Why Bankers Prefer to Send Precious
Metal in Bars.

when the banks ship gold across
the Atlnatic," said a banker, they
prefer to ship 1t in bars rather than
in coin. 1t loses less that way"
1T loses less?"
YES, sir. If 81, 900, 900 in gold coin
is shipped across the sea it is only
1898, 500 on its arrival. 1t loses from
70 to Is ounces, about 5000, through
abrasion, through knocking about with
the motion of the waves. The sea
makes gold lose weight, you see, the
same as it does human beings.
Gold bars lose less. In fine
weather they will lose only about
500 to each million. In the ugliest
weather they can't lose more than
$3.50, whereas in like conditions gold
coins have been known to lose $500.
"As gold shipments of $4,000, 900
often occur. to make these shipments
in gold bars instead of gold coin is
a saving of $1,000 or more.
ut is odd to think when you cross
in one of those gold laden ships that
every wave that hits the boat clips off
10 to Is cents from it's golden cargo"

More Girls Than Boys.

The rural village of Toppesfeld in
North Essex, England, has become
prominent on account of a remark.
able phenomenon in the births re.
corded there.
During the last decade the great
preponderance of girls born In the
parish over boys has been noticed,
and at the present moment the schol-
ars attending the village school com
prise SO giks, but only IL boys. In
consequence of this the county edu-
cation authority is contemplating the
substitution of a schoolmistress for
the present schoolmaster.
But among those belonging to the
place the present state of affairs has
aroused considerable concern, and the
question is being asked where the
farm laborers of the future are to
come from if matters do not change.

Monarch was once a busy center Of
mining life. 1t is the home of one of
the great bonanza mines opened on the
heels OF the Leadville discovery. The
Madonna mine built a great smelter
and established Pueblo as a smelling
center of the west. A period OF depres'
sion followed the decline of silver's
value in the market, and for years
there vas only a handful left to keep
up the town that had once aspired to

again been active and the camp is
awakening to something of its old
time vigor and Importance. The dis

What the cyclone is to the plains

snowslide is to the hills. Man may
