TRUTH ABOUT TIBURON
Many Stories About the Islands Are

Nogales, Ariz., Dec. 24.-The mys-
terry and romance of Tiburon island,
in the gulf of California. is a myth.
No band of man eating Indians in
habit the land; no pirates treasure is
hidden there. and the rich mineral
veins exist only in fancy
The island has just been thoroughly
explored by party of Americans I'M
der the leadership of Prof. Fayette A.
Jones. The party left Nogales Octo-
Der Is.
At Guaymas, the explorers bought
a boat provisioned it for a three
months stay and proceeded up the
gulf. landing at Keno bay, on the
mainland. Here they were visited by
20 Serbs Indian men and women. who
proved friendly and who informed
them there was nothing of value on
the island. However, they crossed to
the island, established a permanent
camp and prosecuted their explora-
lions for five weeks, finding no indi-
cation of anything of value or of great
interest. The island is twenty miles
wide and thirty-five miles long and is
of volcanic origin. Good grass and
running water abounds. It contains
no human beings, but hundreds OF
deer and myriads of wild pigeons. In

ROCK ISLAND TRAINS.
Two New Ones Will Be Put in Ser
vice January 2.

Through a change in the Rock
Island schedule promulgated today,
Topeka will, after Sunday, January 2,
have one more train to and from Chi
cago and An additional train to and
from Los Angeles. Several other al
terations in the present service will be
made to become effective at this date.
The new train will run from Chicago
to Los Angeles leaving Chicago at 10
D. m. and arriving in Topeka at $3.50
the following afternoon. This will give
Topeka an excellent service to western
Kansas points In the afternoon. Here
tofore it was impossible to get train
between noon and midnight to the
southwestern cart of the state Los
Angeles will be reached at Z a. m. the
third day out of Topeka. This train
will carry 4 general equipment and
will make the local stops all along the
way 1t will probably be known as
No! 1.
Following this change. the Golden
state Limited, the Rock Islands fast
train to California, will be made
strictly limited During the summer
months and up until this time it has
carried a chair car and smoker to-
gether with a tourist sleeper. This
was to increase the service and help
out the Increased traffic all along the
line. About Christmas time it was
always changed to a limited-but the
regular local service was crippled on
this account.
Only passengers holding first class
transportation will be carried here
after In addition 10 the through
standard cars from Chicago to Topeka
and on, the Rock Island will also oper-
ate an electric lighted car from St.
Louis. the car being attached to the
Golden State Limited at Kansas City.
The train now known as No. 1 and
passing through Topeka at midnight,
doing local work between Topeka and
Herington and then making larger
stops, will De known as No. Z. This
train will leave Topeka at the same
time and will make practically as good
time west 20 California as the Golden
State Limited.
From the west the new California
train will arrive in Topeka about mid
night and will reach Chicago at five
o'clock in the evening. Another
eastbound train will leave Ell Paso at
a.. m. and VIII arrive in Topeka the
following evening.
The fast new steel train from Kan
sas City to Harrington and then south
has not been scheduled. The officials
are still waiting for the equipment and
for the new plans in connection with it.

TWO AND HALF BILLIONS.
Total of Our Foreign Trade for First
Ten Months.

Washington, Dec. 24.-Nearly one
half of the exports from the United
States go to British territory and
nearly one-third of its imports come
from British territory. Nearly one
billion dollars, according to the bu-
reau of statistics. was the value dur
ing the ten months of the present
year for which figures are availa BILE
OF the trade between the United
States and the British empire, in
Guiding in their term the United
Kingdom, Canada, India and it's
other colonies and dependencies in
various parts of the world. The
total foreign commerce of the coun-
try during the same ten months
amounted to about $4,000, 100000.
'The total value of merchandise ex-
ported from the United States to
British territory in the first ten
months of 1909 was $624,0OO,0Oo.
while the total amount imported from
British territory was 100000. In
its trade with British territory the
United States shows an excess of ex-
ports over imports to every political
DIVISION except the East and West In :
dies. Canada, second to the United
Kingdom in order of magnitude
among the British territories as a
market for products of the United
States, shows the largest growth, the
value of the exports thereto during
the ten months of 1909 having been
