to the effect that within the next
few months the people OF this city

1t has been currently rumored for
some time that as soon as the money
market loosened up. and business
became better that something would
be doing In the way of railroad build

value OF stocks the railroads are Sc
curing money easier than few
months ago TO build and make i'm
provements. The line west OF here
has been laid out and graded for
several miles west but nothing fur
ther was done, but since this sec.
tlon OF the country is rapidly deyel-
oping. and with prospects Of n greater
development since the passage II
the removal OF restrictions bill yes
terday will probably hasten the CON.
struction of the line.
This section Of the union IS with
out sufficient transportation facili.
ties to develop the country as It
should be and the Rock Island sys-
TEN is one Of the many big railroad
organizations in the United States
that pays particular attention to the
development OF the section traversed.
This rumor gained more currency
last night when the appearance
of the private car Of the general au-
perintendent Of the Frisco, w. r.
Tyler, arrived here from Springfield.

Lions, Tigers and Leopards.

Mr.. r. LydekkeT, the English nat
uralist. calls attention to the obser-
vations of Mr.. R. I. POCOck on the
of the spots on lion cubs
as indicating the close relationship
of lions, tigers and leopards. On
lion cubs the pattern Of the markings
is intermediate in character between
the stripes of the tiger and the
rosettes OF the leopard, but inclines
more toward the former. East Afri-
can lions retain more or less distinct
traces of these early markings even
when they reach maturity. A dis
tinct tiger-like feature of the lion
cub is white patch over the eye,
which disappears in the adult. Puma
cubs show a pattern quite unlike
that of the lion, tiger, leopard and

WE ARE DYING YOUNGER.

Only the Babies Have a Better
Chance to Survive Now.
In view OF all that has been said
about the fall in the death rate it
seems strange to realize, says Health
Culture, that we are not living so
long as our gTandfathers and grand
mothers did More babies live to
grow up nowadays than formerly,
BUT people in later life die younger.
Once arrived to adult age the aver
age man or woman has fewer years
of survival TO expect. This seems
on the face of 1t so surprising state
ment that in order to be accepted it
should be backed up by data authen-
: and indisputable. Such data are
furnished by the figures Of the in
surance companies (Which all agree
on the point, but it is easier TO re-
fer to the Government census re-
ports, which tell the tale in simple
and convincing fashion. Even in
the last fifteen years the death rate
among all persons over % years Of
age of both sexes has risen very con-
siderably.

Not All Hawks Chicken Thieves.

The hawks have as bad reputa-
ton as the crows, and all hawks are
called 'hen-hawks" by those who are
ignorant of what they do live on, but
the majority of the hawks do not live
on poultry by any means. A great
many live on insects and mice form
q large item in their bill of fare.
The sparrow hawk is the one that
is to blame for the hard name given
to his brethren, and it IS he who kills
the chickens and hens. When hard
pressed for food other hawks rarely
may carry away hen or chicken, but
this is the extreme rather than the
average case. Maine Woods.

The cars showed up splendidly in both

before the run, and the fact that Il

AUTO TOURING CARS
USED IN THE ARMY
Introduction of Military Dispatch
Carriers Follows Successful En-
ployment in European Armies.

That the automobile is seriously con-
sidered by army officers as necessity,
not only for watching the movements
Of the army. but for a dispatch carrier
as well, is evidenced by the fact that
Mai Gen. r. D. Grant is using two
Studebaker touring cars, at the army
maneuvers now being held at Pine
Plains. New York, where over 10000
regulars and militia are in camp.
While the use Of automobiles for such
purposes is comparatively new to this
country. they are extensively used
abroad. England. Germany and France
having used them successfully for some
time
The two cars will be IN constant use
during the entire month that the army
IS in camp. and the test to which the
two Studebaker cars are now being
submitted should be long and severe
enough 10 settle once and for all the
practicability of the motor car for TINS
class Of service. There seems 10 be
little doubt that the modern automobIe
is destined, owing TO its speed and re
liability, 10 largely displace the horse
