SYNOPSIS.

Mr. Solomon Pratt began comical mar

Nathan Scudder of his town, and Edward
Van Brunt and Martin Hartley, two rich
New Workers seeking rest. Because of
latter pairs lavish expenditure of money
Pratts first impression was connected
with lunatics. Van Brunt, IL was learned

one OF Miss Pages charges, whom she
had taken to the country for an outing
Out sailing later, Van Brunt, Pratt and
Hopper were wrecked in a squall Pratt
landed safely and a search for the other
two revealed an island upon which they
were found. Van Brunt rented Il from

MONEY MADE IN LIVE STOCK
IN CENTRAL CANADA.

w. ]. Henderson, visiting Seattle,
writes the Canadian Government
Agent at Spokane, Wash, and says:
II have neighbors in Central Canada
raising wheat, barley and oats for the
past 20 years, and are now getting
from the same land 20 to 80 bushels of
wheat per acre, 40 to go bushels OF
oats.
1T was the first week of May when /
got my tent pitched. but the farmers
all around had finished putting in
their crops, so only got fifteen acres
broke and seeded. They advised me
as 1t was late not to put In much
wheat, SO l put In five acres of wheat
and ten acres oats, one-half acre pota-
toes and vegetables. All kinds of veg
etables grow well up there, sweet corn,
tomatoes, onions, carrots, peas, beans,
cabbage. My wheat yielded about 20
bushels per acre, for which / got 76
cents, others got 80 cents; oats
threshed SO bushels per acre, for which
l got 35 cents per bushel. You see l
was three weeks late in getting them
In, still l was satisfied.
From my observation, there is more
money made in stock, such as cattle,
horses and sheep, as prices are high
for such, and it costs nothing to raise
them, as horses live the year around
out on the grass. In fact, farmers turn
their work horses out for the winter,
and they come in fresh and fat in the
spring. Cattle live out seven or eight
months. They NOW the prairie grass
ana stack 1t for winter and give oat
straw. My neighbors sold steers at
$40 each, and any kind of a horse
that can pillow, from $4,000 up. raised
60 chickens and pigs, as pork, chick
ems. butter and eggs pay well and al
ways a good market for anything
man raises. so have every reason to
be thankful, besides, at the end of
three years l get my patent for home
stead. heard of no homestead sell
ing for less than $4,000, so where I'M
der the sun could an old man or
young man do better?"

a stout, beaming lady with capacious

she leaning over and looking into the

The Rack, Pace and Amble.

The rack IS gait Of the horse be-
tween trot and a gallop or canter. In
which the fore feet move as in slow
gallon, while the hind feet move as IN
a trot on pace. 1t is usually an arti-
fetal gait. but is sometimes hereditary
or natural. There is much confusion
of terms in respect to this gait, due
to the fact that the gait itself is some
what varied, according as the racker
carries the one or the other fore foot
foremost in the galloping motion OF
the fore feet; that many confound the
rack with the pace, the words often
being used anonymously, and that
many have mistaken the use Of the
words "pace" and "amble." There is
abundant evidence that the American
pace Of today is the amble OF Eu'
ropeans Of the last century and earlier
The motion of the hind feet Is the
same In the trot, the pace and the
rack. In the trot the diagonal hind
and fore feet move nearly simulta-
neously. In the pace or amble the

HIS RULING PASSION

The following story is commonly
related as true in France: Old
Harpagon was fast approaching his
end. His sufferings were very
great, but he comforted himself
with the thought that as he could
not eat there was so much saved at
any rate.
well, DOCTOR" he said in a feeble
voice, how long have yet to- live?'
Only half an hour. Would you
like to send for somebody-a clergy
man, for instance?"
Harpagon was silent for a few
moments. He passed his hand over
his chin, bristling with a grizzly
beard of several days growth, when
sudden thought struck him, and,
turning to the doctor, he gasped ex-
citedly:
"Quick--send fora barberi"
The barber soon afterward ar
rived with his shaving tackle.
Harpagon, whose voice was get
ting weaker, asked him-"Iou
charge-twopence-for shaving"
That's the price," was the an
swer.
"And-how much--is it-for
shaving-a corpse?"
The barber paused a moment and
then said, Five shillings."
Then -- shave -- me quickly, y
stammered old Harpagon, casting
feverish glance at the watch which
the doctor still held in his hand.
He was too feeble to utter an
other word, but the doctor under
stood the mute appeal and said:
Fifteen minutes more!"
A smile of satisfaction stole over
the features of the patient. The
barber set to work and in a very
short time finished his task not
withstanding the nervous twitchings
that distorted the face of the dying
man. When the operation was over
old Harpagon uttered a sigh Of re,
lief and was heard to whisper:
That's a good thing--fou shill

nomenCr. Occasionally th2. silence Is
broken by loud report resembling the
boom of a cannon. The noise is caused
by the bursting of an Ice bubble on Il
river. The streams coming from the
hills are incased In Ice six to nine
inches thick, and as the water de-
scends faster than It escapes through
the river the result Is heavy hydro
static pressure. This first causes the
ice upon the river to rise in mounds
often six to eight feet high. For n
time they seem to yield elastically to
the pressure, but finally can with
stand no more and burst with an ex-
plosive report. The water rushes out,
soon freezing, however, and causing
further explosions. The writer asserts
that he has seen scores Of these ice

We have never heard Of such use OF
muskrat musk, nor can we find any
thing definite on the subject In the
books. Application to large manu-
facturer Of perfumery, however, brings
out the information that some years
ago musk from the muskrat was tried

Facts About S. p.
Buying n. z. Road

1t is reported that the Southern
Pacific Company when it took over
the old Arizona Eastern line, now
generally referred to as the Phoenix
and Eastern, agreed to finish the
road by January l, 1910, or turn
the property back to the Santa Fe,
and forfeit all payments made.
Since the Arizona Eastern was
taken over by the Southern Pacific,
Z. H. Hartman has become power
among the Santa Fe magnates. 1t
is not expected that he will fore
close upon himself if the agreement
is not carried out, but indications
are that he has every intention of
living up to the contract. Within
a short time three crews will be at
work grading the line between
Christmas and San Carlos. 1t is un-
derstood that the men and teams
now grading the road out to Miami
from Globe will be used on the
p. & E. as soon as the work upon
which they are now engaged is CON-
pleted. That will be within a few
weeks.
The railroad company has made q
definite promise to the Saddle
Mountain Mining Company to have
its tracks at the foot of Christmas
hill by September 1st. The line
from Winkleman to Christmas, nine
miles, is already graded. One of
the supply camps for the forces
which will be required to grade the
roadbed between Christmas and
San Carlos, will be located at the
foot of the hill, half mile from
Christmas. Another supply camp
will be at San Carlos.
When work is finally begun il
will be rushed through to com,
pletion, and it is believed it can be
finished by January 1st. The party
of surveyors and engineers which
has been in the field since early in
the spring, has the line thoroughly
surveyed from one end to the other,
The railroad company has also
agreed to lay down the supplies Of

the road is completed that far. II
is under contract to have its road tc

Mountain concern starts up a smelt,

before that time.
