PERSONAL NOTES.

The Council of Empire at st. Peters
burg has raised the Russian Legation
at Toxic to IN embassy.
Congressman Cole of the Eighteenth
Ohio district has twice secured his
nomination by the flip of a silver dol
lar, but he is not a silver man for al
that.
When a Judge, at a salary Of $17,5 500
cannot afford to stay on the bench thu
old favorite, whittier are we drift
ing?" is legitimately called into &C
ton again.
An English woman who has jus
died left a fortune of SIT, 600, 1000. No
body had ever heard of her. Now, a.
American woman with that niue!
would have taken people into her con
idence.
The special counsel for the New
York attorney general In going ovel
the assets and liabilities Of the New
York City Railway company discovered
that s 5,OO0,O 600 was charged to "con
struction and equipment The amount
actually spent he found to be $25, 900
Nine. lola, widow of Emile lola. the
famous French literary man, has pub
lished an open letter, in which she
expresses regret that she cannot re
tain possession OF tie body of her hus
band. She declares that his labors OF
forty years, his Fart in tie Dreyfus af
fair and the insults of the reaction
aries have done more Tor his fame than
can the Pantheon.
American oil painters get much
more encouragement from tie wealthy
men of the west than they do from the
millionaires of the eas.,' said Henry
.Reinhadt of Milwaukee in New York
the other day. There is more patrior
ism among the western men of means
and they pay better prices fer Ameri
can pictures than the fasteners
American works are going into the
galleries of the west"

M0HLER IS
NOT POSTED
GENERAL MANAGER OF UNION
PACIFIC DOES NOT KNOW
WHAT LARGE SUM is FOR
Fifty Millions Voted by Stockholders
of Union Pacific In Hands Of Pres
ident Hartman, Who Has Not
Made His Plans Known to His
Subordinate Officials.

Does the issue of 500, 000, 900 bonds
by the Union Pacific and the state
ment hat half of that sum is to be
used in new work mean that Omaha
is to get its headquarters in the neac
future? Does it mean that the new
lines planned by the Union Pacific
management before the financial trou-
BILE last September will be constructed
in the immediate future?
A. l.. Mohler, vice president and
general manager of the Union Pacific,
was asked ii the statement by Ell,
Hartman, Monday in reference to the
new bond issue meant that new lines
would soon be constructed by the IN
ion Pacific.
Hartman the Only Man.
You can answer that question as
well as | can" said Mr.. Mohler. Il
don't know a thing about what Mr..
Harriman's intentions are in the mat
ter, as l have had NJ word from min.
He seemed to imply by that statement
that the $780, O0, 900 would be used in
building and acquiring new lines and
additions to the Union Pacific rail
road"
DO you know when men will be put
in the field to begin new work." was
also asked Mr.. Mohler.
Il can't tell a thing about that,
either" replied Mr.. Mohler.
Finishing Lane Cutoff.
1t was stated at Union Pacific head
quarters Tuesday morning that the
Union Pacific has put 100 additional
men to work on the Lane cutoff to
hurry the time of completion OF tina
new line. A single track has been laiu
nearly the entire length of the new
line and the forces are preparing to

ness until the work is practically com
pleted.

Lower Rates to Park.

As a result of the mmer com
missions insistence that hotels and
rates to Yellowstone park be divided,
fares to the national preserve will be
materially reduced. Announcement
was made yesterday by the Union Pa
cihc agents in Chicago That the first.
class round trip fare from Chicago to
the park, with stage ride to the prin
cipal points of interest, would be
5000.
Cut Of Seven Dollars.
The round trip, including the rail-
road and stage trip and hotel accom-
modations for four and one-half days
in the park, will be s90.75. This is a
cut of 81 in the first trip and a reduc.
ton of $6.75 in the round trip, includ-
ing the hotel cost. This is the result
not only of the commissions stand that
the hotel and fare rate must be sep
arated, but on account of the con
struction of a second road to the
boundary of the park, a branch of the
Union Pacific. Up to last year there
had been but one railroad-the North
ern Pacihc-resching the national ca
riosity.

LORE OF THE DESERT
Those Who Have Once Seen Imperial
 Valley Want to Return.

That the hospitality of Imperial Val ley folk is unstinted is shown by their preparations for the entertainment of the second party of excursionists which will leave here Thursday night on a special train over the Southern Pacific, says the Los Angeles Times.
 El Centro ladies will serve a fine turkey dinner, rides to all points of in terest will be provided and several re- captions are arranged.
 Secretary Frank Wiggins of the Chamber of Commerce says: "It is certainly worth ones while to visit that incomparable valley. I would like to take the trip every week, if my other duties did not prevent. Un- less one sees for himself what has been accomplished in the Imperial sec ton he can form no idea of its future possibilities for trade relations.
 "The valley residents look to this city as their natural source of sup plies. Families will spend the sum- mer> in this vicinity and patronize local stores for articles not easily ob- tainable in the valley. Everybody is making money. They all have a pros porous look. I am told that physicians do not thrive there because the coun- try is too healthful."

A NEW BUILDING.
For San Bernardino Business College
 and Civil Service Institute.

The San Bernardino Board of Trade, at special meeting for the purpose, last Monday night, unanimously adopt ed the report of it's committee to raise $8000 to purchase a site for a new building for San Bernardino Business College and Civil Service Institute.
 The new college building is to be a splendid three-story brick, S0x120 feet, costing about $25,000, and is to be completed in August. This will prob ably be the best commercial school building in the West, built especially for such purposes. This action on the part of the San Bernardino Board of Trade indicates something of the es- teem in which the institute is held at home. The attendance of the school has increased until students are en- rolled from Canada to Mexico, and most of the Western States, present quarters being crowded till new and larger building is an imperative neces- sity. Next years attendance is eX- pected to be more than double that of the present year.
 Twenty-eight students of this school took the examination held in San Der nardino Friday for government ste nographers, and much larger number are preparing for the next one. Those wishing to prepare for any line of government service or commercial pur- suits should call on or write the above school, which is in session twelve months in the year for both personal and mail courses.

 "The elderly lawyer in his conclud- ing address spoke for six hours-an interminable, foggy, stupid speech. Then Littleton rose. He smiled slight ly, looked at judge and jury, and said: ::
 Your Honor. I will follow the eX- ample of my learned friend who has just concluded, and submit the case without argument
