TERMINAL STATIONS In NEW YORK
CITY ARE MARVELLOUS BUILDINGS

New York. May THE Tower OF
Babel was but cottage compared
some OF the titanic buildings that are
now being erected In New Nork-and
they grow bigger and bigger until
un0 wonders when the Limit of size
will be reached. The latest and mos,
wonderful human structure and the
largest building in the world is that
erected by the Hudson and Manhat-
tan Railway Company TO cover the
terminals of It's tracks that run under
the Hudson River from New Jersey.
II occupies the halves of two blocks
fronting on Church street, which Is
parallel with Broadway and the next
street toward the river, and extends
from Cortland TO Fulton streets on
both sides OF Dey street, which Is
crossed by a bridge. says William L.
Curtis 20 the Chicago Tribune.

is to be a railway station absolutely
unique and the most wonderful ever
conceived. II will receive the trains
of the railways that will run through
the tunnels to Jersey City and bring
into Lower New York by a line OF
nineteen miles OF single and nine

The Railroad.
What Is known as the Hudson and
Manhattan Company, of which vii
liam McAdoo Is president, has beer
building two systems OF tunnels un
der the Hudson river-one between
Hoboken and the shopping and hote
district of New York City, and the
other from Jersey City to the lower
part OF the business district. The
upper tunnels were open for trafii'
Feb. 25. when President Roosevelt
pressed button and started the frs
train. They have been running regu
larry trains of four cars NJ Intervals
of three minutes and have made thu
distance between Hoboken and Nine
teenth street and Sixth avenue in sew
en- minutes. | described the system
in a letter the other day.

Basket Ball Games.

Pocatello and Blackfoot have been
matching their teams in basket ball
with the result that Pocatello is un-
der the willows.
On Thursday, March 9Th the Black
foot team played Pocatello at the
Gate City and returned with vic
torious eagles. On Tuesday evening
the Toggery team and a lot of en-
thusiastic rooters from Pocatello met
our boys in The Armory here, and
were defeated by a score of % to 16.
They had a good house to witness
the game, and the most generous en-
couragement was given both sides by
their home people. The first half of
the game was pulled off in the utmost
good nature, but in the second half
there was some irritation and fric-
ton that clouded the clean sports
man spirit just little, but altogeth-
er the game was nice one.
The basket ball girls of Blackfoot
and lot of their friends will go to
Pocatello Saturday, March 14th, to
play the girls there, and we shall
have more to say next week concern
ing their victory at that time.

Speeches of Political Candidates.

Our opinion is that it is pretty dan
gerous business for the candidates for
high political offices to make many
speeches. One speech we remember
made by General Scott, when candi-
date for president of the United
States. ruined his chances.
A speech made to Blaine, when he
was candidate for president, being
the result of one of his speeches, and
containing the words, Rum, Roman
ism and Rebellion" is said to have
ruined his chances.
Nobody ever found out that Gener'
al Grant could make speech or
write a, book until he got through
being president. We remember very
we'll how at one of our places of fash
ionable resort the belle of the hotel
undertook to fascinate him. The only
speech she got in reply was that he
begged to be excused as he wanted
to look at a horse that gentleman
had just driven up to the hotel. When
Secretary of War Stanton decided
that General Grant, who had just
been placed in charge Of the army of
the Potomac, should not withdraw
any considerable number of troops
from Washington, Grant simply re-
piled, 1--WE will have to consult the
president" When they arrived at
the White House, Stanton said to
General Grant, Estate your case, ;"
but Grant replied that he had no case
to state, so Stanton had to do all the
talking, and when he got through our
wise and great Abraham Lincoln said,
Nov, Stanton, you and I have been
trying to run this war for some time
and we haven't made much Roadway
at it, but Mr.. Grant has had great
luck out west and think we had
better let Mr.. Grant have his own
way about It." Grant was in the
habit of listening to the suggestions
of his officers and then quietly decid-
ing what It was best to do.-Geo. T.
Angel in Dumb Animals.

"Confucius, the most holy, is One

"Confucius, the most holy, is One
with Heaven and Earth, the Mentor
and Guide of ten thousand genera
tions. His worship is therefore rails
ed to that of the Highest Degree, as
Manifestation of his Glory.
LET the proper board (board of
rites) decide and report as to the
proper rites and ceremonies to be fol-
lowed.
Respect this!"
This is the first time in many gen.
erations that new god has been Gre
ated. even though old materials have
been used, and it is therefore mo-
mentous event in Chinese history.
But it attracted very much less at
teption from the people to whom the
edict is directed than would have
been excited hundred or even ten
years ago. The people of China have
scarcely been diverted for moment
from their ordinary thoughts and oc-
equations and are practically indiffer-
emit to this extraordinary honor which

He Could Remember.

A mother could not attend church
one Sunday, so she sent her little
boy instead, and urgently admonish-
ed him to remember as much as pos
sible of the sermon, and report. He
heard the preacher read, why stand
We here idle? Go labor in My vine
yard and it will be well with you"
And the text was, can angel came
down from heaven and took a live
coal from the altar" while the hymn
they sang was, "The cross / bear"
He returned home much elated be-
cause he could remember so much.
He said the preacher read about the
boss who came along and said,
what are you standing round here
for dom nothin'? Go into by barn
yard and go to work, and will make
1t all right with you" The text was
can Indian came down from New
Haven, took live colt by the tail
and jerked 1t out of the halter, and
they sang something about cross
eyed bear. - Elizabeth Benedict,

Sound Psychology.

Worry, depression, anger, malice,
hatred, uncharitableness and the 9th
err mental vices we beg to be deliver
ed from act like actual poison on the
physical organism; faith, hope, cheer
fitness and altruistic thought like
tonics, says a writer in Good House
keeping. A sick man or a tired man
cannot afford destructive emotions; a
well man may indulge in them If he
likes. He may also drink glass of
typhoid fever germs as a pastime.
But both are poison and the practice
is risky. This is not nonsense, but
sound psychology. The recent dis
coveries of the effect of the emotions
on the body have made 1t an axiom.
The subconscious mind is likewise
labor factor that the ambitious man
cannot afford to neglect. This layer
of mind, this storehouse Of strength
whatever we choose to call the area
that lies below our surface conscious
ness-is another revelation of psy-
chology made within few years. 1t
means, practically, that a man living
nationally can appeal to this source
for all he needs to keep him going.
With his subconscious mind as an
ally, he can save himself wear and
tear and strain and do more work.

has been conferred upon the great
sage.
Confucius has been worshipped by
the people of China for more than g.
900 years. There is tablet to his
memory in the house of every edu-
Gated man in the empire; there is a
temple provided for his worship in al
most every town, and the emperor
goes to the "Hall of Intense
Thought" in the Forbidden city to
pay his obeisance to "The Teacher
and Patron for All Ages" But, until
now Confucius has been a god of the
second class, although his maxims
are quite as familiar to the people of
the United States and have had an
even greater influence on their civili-
cation. They have been the guide for
public as well as private life. Famil-
iarity with them has been the chief
qualification required of candidates
for Office for appointments in the
army and navy and a standard by
which moral worth has been esti-
mated.

be no lack of private support for such

The artistic value of craftsman
ship has been patiently demonstrated
within the last fortnight by the ex-
hibition of tapestries, textiles, en-
broideries and laces which has been
held under the auspices of the Ma
tional Society of the Fine Arts in the

bition except that of contemporary
American paintings has awakened

gratifying comment. Over five thou
sand people visited the Corocoran
gallery on the Sunday afternoons
alone and the attendance throughout
the week has been uncommonly large.
1t was with regret that the doors OF
the hemicycle hall were closed yes

others who have not already availed
themselves of the privilege oppor-
tunity to see the tapestries which
hung in the main gallery they will

Women Suffragists.

The women had a hearing before
the senate committee in Washington
few days since who were SO dunn
founded by the numbers, the argu-
ments and persisten y of the women
all of which they claim are unans-
werable because Of magnitude, espe-
cially the arguments.
Mrs. Gait made the strongest plea.
What the women ask for is perfectly
constitutional, she said, just as much
so as the Acknowledgement of the ne
groes. She begged the committee to
keep her and her sisters from the
humiliation of going among ignorant
and disrespectful male voters and
asking for the ballot.
"You don't want us women to go
to the negro and beg him to give us
voice in this free government, do
you?" she inquired. "Then give us
some hope of congressional action
looking toward constitutional
amendment"
Several of the speakers referred
to the fact that the women of the
country by their taxes help to pay the
salaries of the senator's on the COM
mittee.

it," said one woman apologetically,
"but the situation demands it-de-

To this Mr.. Clay smiled as if to as
sure the speechmaker that she was
not overstepping the bounds or hurt
ing anybody's feelings.

were given an opportunity to present
pleas also to the house judiciary
committee.

have attracted unusual attention and

Confucius in the national pantheon
to a god of the first rank, placing him
upon a level with heaven and earth j,
and commanding that the highest
form of worship be rendered to his
spirit. The edict reads as follows:

Railway near where the road crosses
the Four Holes Swamp just this side
Of Cameron. Zeigler was in Orange
bury on Monday, but left that after
noon for his home near Cameron,
and the suppositions is that he was
either run down by a train while
walking on the track or fell from the
train. When found his face vas
partly submerged in water and was
smeered with clay. There was no
evidence of foul play, and it is be-
lieved that the unfortunate man was
killed by an accident, which will
probably never be explained.
