A curious feature in railroad building has
been discovered in the Milwaukee extern
sion to the Pacific coast and records in
track laying are being broken. One OF the
engineering feats is found on one stretch
Of track 115 miles in length where there are
III bridges. This is where the road runs
along the Musselshell river. which separates
Fergus and Yellowstone counties in Mon
tanA. In travelling over this stretch the
passenger will go from Fergus into Yellow
stone county fifty-Eine times and return
into Fergus county fifty-eight times in the
course Of us miles. Every time the track
crosses the county line there is a bridge,
and they average more than one TO a mile,

The question is regarded as Of vital in

them to the states west Of the river is still
being considered by the executive com

legislatures two years ago said ? cents
should be the maximum passenger rates
the railroads at the same time said that ?
cents should be the minimum rates. The

Kings Who Turned TO Teaching to
Make Living.
In the early part of the life Of King
Christian TX. of Denmark there was
no prospect of his ever becoming the
ruler of that country. With this in
view he became a schooImaster at the
German university Of Halle.
Being too poor to keep servant, the
Dowager Czarina Dagmar Of Russia,
one of his daughters, used to help her
mother to do the household work and
take care of the younger children.
During this period there were King
Frederick VII. and several others in
the direct line of succession that stood
before Prince Christian; but, by sue
cession of deaths that occurred, he be-
came the heir apparent, and after the
death of King Frederick VII. In 1863
he was proclaimed King Christian TX
Of Denmark
Another instance of similar nature
is that Of Louis Philippe. During the
time he was exiled from France, Their
being the Due de Chartres, he became
a teacher Of mathematics and geogra
ply In Switzerland. About thirty-six Of
thirty-seven years afterward, on Aug
8, 1880, he was proclaimed King Louis

THE STOCK MARKET.
Accuracy Of the Exchange In the
Analysis Of Events.

Analysis OF Events.
Barring the case of manipulation,
which carries its own remedy and
which is one of the evils of speculation,
the stock market tells the truth. Tenn
porarily indications may be misleading,
but 1t is eventually shown that its
analysis of events Is correct. The ST.
lent panic Of March, 1907, was a pre-
mise Of the panic of November. Dur
Ing the intervening seven months prices
dropped steadily, showing plainly that
there was a weakness in the financial
and industrial structure The utter
foolishness of blaming speculation for
the downward movement is obvious.
The stock market with its daily record
Of prices said as plainly ais it was pos
stble to say: Danger! Stand from un-
der!"
Something similar happened in 1893.
Bradstreet's for July 30, 1893, shows
that twenty representative stocks fell
on an average As points, or more than
90 per cent, between January and July.
This mitfgated the effect Of the panic,
One of the most striking illustrations
Of the cold blooded accuracy Of the ex-
change is recorded by Proudhon in
the Spectators Manual. published at
Paris in 1857, in which he shows that
in the later days Of Napoleon and the
restoration, while French patriotism
was at white heat, prices on the bourse
advanced with each victory of the al
lies, rejecting the belief that the defeat
Of Napoleon meant more for France
than the success. John Paul Ryan in
Metropolitan Magazine.

Puxziing Differences In Weights.
Which Is heavier. a pound Of feathers
or pound OF lead? They weigh the
same.
Which Is heavier, a pound Of feathers
or pound Of silver? The pound OF
feathers is heavier, because feathers
are weighed by avoirdupois weight
which has 1000 grains to the pound,
while the precious metals are weighed
by troy weight, which has only 5,780
grains to the pound.
Which Is heavier, an ounce Of feath-
ers or an ounce of silver? An ounce Of
silver, because In the troy ounce there
are 4S0 grains, while in the avoirdu-
pois ounce there are only 4371s grains.
The ayoirdupois pound Of 1000 grains
Is divided into sixteen ounces, while
the lighter troy pound Of 5, 76O grains is
divided into twelve heavier ounces.

In winter throughout the cold lati-

classes wear fur, wool or hair lined
garments. Even the cody laborers

people of the middle and official
classes have many sets of garments
lined with the richest furs. In China
houses are rarely heated to the winter
