the continent on a slower train. and the
colonists in tourists nave a schedule Of
their own which is about half way between
the limited and the slow trains.
You could not imagine a better place to
get really acquainted with a new husband
than on this beautiful train. There is an
unparalleled romance about rolling across
the endless plains where once roamed the
buffalo by the millions and where the In
dams ran unmolested in the olden days.

Of happy homes. where the tillers OF the

the mountains Of Switzerland. The story
Of the transition Of those plains from the
home OF the buffalo to the habltatlon of
man, all within the lifetime OF our fathers,
is like a novel. First the buffalo, then the
Indians and then the pony express and the
long OK trains. and then the pioneers and
the railroads, and now the prosperous
farmers, many OF them supplied with ali
the l~uxuries OF life. We saw automobiles

go TO the train and get aboard the Los

such a splendid train in the west. 1 could
not imagine more perfect arrangements
for a bridal tour and we met the incest

In the afternoon l got George TO take
me back TO the observation, car on the rear
of the train. You know that is the real
social center of the train and there was
an old scout who had ridden the plains
forty years before and he told us Of the
many points of interest. Oh, well, you
know all about what there is TO see, so
what is the use of my telling you. We saw
Colonel Cody's old ranch at North Platte
and crossed Sherman hill, near Cheyenne,
and saw the famous Dale creek cut and
other places where Hartman has spent
millions to a a few miles. l wanted
to cross Salt Lake, but our road did not
take US that way.
The rolling lands Of Wyoming were on
every side on the second morning out, be-
tween Cheyenne and Green River, and the
land looked sunburned to me and some one
suggested that the sage brush which was
on every side LOOKED like freckles with a
few different shaped erags of rock stuck
here and there TO relieve the monotony.
'The wonderful scenery of Echo and
Weber canyons claimed all our attention
that afternoon as the limited ran out Of
Wyoming into Utah. With a burst Of speed
which was almost frightening. but which
we were assured was all right because OF
the sure track which the most skillful
engineering had made. We tore down the

that they laugh at the care with which
their mothers and grandmothers cherished
every bit of their wedding outfit and they
actually buy their things with reference to
their utility after the first and momentoua

ally are expected to do duty many times
after the wedding and often they are col
ored when they become soiled TO match
some other gown and TO be worn for dane
ing slippers. But all Of this is aside from
the first wearing Of the wedding slipper
which Is just like any other white satin
or kid slipper. The heel is military rather
than French and the vamp is not cut as
low as the pump and frequently is adorned
with embroidery OF a rosette. II may be

every turn.

Young preached his first sermon to the
Utah pioneers Of Mormon faith when the

told us, and we all gazed and wondered.

preach about as actually flowing with milk

where Zion is. but that Is what the Nor
mons like to call Salt Lake City.

the lucky ones.
And then we came to the garden land
az Riverside, where flowers of all kind
abound in such p%rofusion that it pays to be

GOAL COST
HEAVY ONE
RAILROADS FIND OCCA-
SION FOR MUCH CON-
Germ IN FIGURES THAT
ARE BROUGHT TO LIGHT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-Figures
privately gathered by the car effici-
ency committee of the American
Railway association show the aver
age distance travelled in day by the
average freight car on the railways
of the United States is only about 22
miles. Excluding the idle cars from
the total to obtain the movement, the
average even then is only rs miles a
day Statistics gathered by the inter-
state commission show, too, that the
average speed of the freight trains ON
miles an hour.
This means that average freight
car is moving on it's journey only 2h
hours out of the "a. All the rest of
the time it is standing idle on some
siding or in some yard.
Is it any wonder, then, the COM
missions experts ask, the freight
yards are congested? And why, they
ask, don't the railroads, instead or
buying or building more cars and big
ger yards, to handle increasing traffic
attain better results by over hauling
their methods of moving-or not
moving-freight traffic? Why do
they not find some way to keep
feight cars moving so they may reach
their destination more promptly and
get out of the yards where they are
now held?
At a recent meeting of the West
ern Railway club an official of the
Burlington system admitted that the
car inter change rules of the railways
are greatly delaying freight move
ments. 1t appears from what he
said that question between two
railways as to which shall spend
dollar or SO for repairs to freight
car often delays a carload of freight
for "a to 4S hours, causes an expense
of several dollars in idle car time,
and work by switching locomotives,
and adds to yard congestion.
The fact is, as pointed out to the
interstate commission, by an expert,
the length of time occupied by the
average railway freight movement is
one of the most serious defects in
American railway practice. When a
shipment has to traverse the lines of
several different companies and pass
through important functions, it is
the useual thing for such a shipmenr
to take from one to three weeks to
make a journey of as many miles.
The result is that freight sent by
water, between important centers,
will reach the consignee more
promptly than if sent by rail. The
delay in forwarding shipments means
not only poor service to shippers, but
added expense to the railroads. 1t
is the delay in handling freight that
is responsible for crowded yards and
transfer houses and car shortages.
1t is even charged that the delay in
small merchandise Is part
of a general plan on the part Of the
railroads to make shippers patronize
the express companies, which are
making enormous profits and pay
richly to the railroads for their con-
cessions.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE
passing of Zelaya, the dominant in
fluence for evil in Central America,

ed here as a long step in the direc-

That Estrada and his army will
willingly submit to installation of
Madriz as president Is not conceiv-
able here. Whether or not the Unit
ed States will take any steps to pre-
vent Zelaya from leaving his country
is problematical.

that American lives and interests
