The Hereafter

went one night with my high-priced thirst to loaf in the booze bazaar, and as I sampled the old red dope leaned on the handsome bar. My purse was full of the good long green, and my rainent was smooth and new, and looked as sleek as caSpage rose that's kissed by the nice wet dew. Behind the bottles mirror stood, as large as your parlor floor, and looked and looked in the shining glass and wondered, and looked some more. My own reflection did not appear, but there where it should have been, I saw the form of a cringing bum all crumbled and soaked with gin. His nose was red and hls eyes were dim, unshorn was his swollen face, and thought It queer such seedy bo would come to so smooth place. turned around for better look at this effigy of despair, and nearly fell in little heap, for the effigy wasn't thefe The barkeep laughed. "It's the magic gless," he said, with careless yawn "it shows man how he's apt to look years hence when his roll is gone .''-Walt Mason.

 Says the Lawyer

White, Plains, Aug. 5-The attorney for the defense in the Thaw case is oday making a scathing attack upon the character of Stanford White, and by convincing line of argument he is showing that Harry Thaw's beliefs about Stanford Whites degenerate practices were based on evidence and not on insane delusions.
 He maintains that a knowledge of the injuries perpetrated by White would drive any sane man to attempt vengeance, and Thaw's actions were prompted by righteous anger instead of insanity.

Want Uniform Rate Upon Stock.

Everybody is getting after the Southern Pacific for uniform rate basis on live stock. The Territorial Railway Commission has drawn up a petition, which has been presented to the above named road also to the Santa Fe, setting forth their reasons for putting into effect the proposed basis.
 The commission claims that on live stock there is no uniform basis in effect, and that many stock shipping points are not represented upon the tariff as it stands at present. There are also great many discrepancies between certain points, the rate in some instances being the same from stations tEirty-five miles a part as from those fifty miles apart.
 The E. P. & s. w. are not included in the petition, for the reason, it is stated that their rates are reasona ble as they stand. R. S. Stubbs, of the Southern Pacific, has informed the commission that the matter is under consideration and that action favor able to the commission will be taken.
 The petition also proposes to adopt a thirt-six foot stock car as being the best suited for the transportation of cattle, but in case such cars are not available and some of less length are to be had, deduction of two and one half per cent of the charge per car foot under the requisite length will be made.

Southern Pacific May Extend to Clifton.

Another road building project is being contemplated by the Southern Pacific, according to information re- ceived by the Silver Belt yesterday which will place Clifton on a connect ing line with the Gila Valley railway.
 This plan calls for the building of an extension eastward from the Gila Valley line at Solomonville, by the way of Guthrie and Lordsburg. A branch line to Clifton is included in the plan.
 The Arizona & New Mexico rail- road, owned by the Arizona Copper company and the Morenci Southern railway of the Phelps-Dodge com pany meet at Guthrie and in the event of the construction of the pro- posed new line, it is probable that the Morenci Southern would be broad-guaged, opening up both Cliff ton and Morenci to standard guage traffic and the subsequent connection of these points with the Gila Valley line.
 A move Of this kind would be Of great importance to the Shannon Copper company, which is now en- tirely dependent upon the Arizoua & New Mexico railroad, and to the Globe district as we'll, as a large amount of territory would be open ed up and made tributary to this city to a certain extent.
 No date has been fixed as to the time at which this work will be taken up.-Silver Belt.
 The above from the Silver Belt of Wednesdays issue of last week may be indefinite, but taken in connec- tion with the fact that there arrived in Solomonville on Thursday last, which is verified by the Bulletin, railroad surveying corps there may be more truth than poetry in the statement.
