A rather curious habit has been de.

these creatures are thirsty 1t is said
that before attempting to put theiI
mouths to the prickly plant they will
first of all stand and kick at the cactus
with their heels. BY this means the
thorns are broken and the leathery skin
bruised, and SO the ponies can drink
their fill of the cool juice without in

are ascribed by President MCCrea to the

crease of s.515, ,954, and the net was
SS4, 1876, 1873, decrease of Sc, 800, 435.
The results of the depression are, as the
president says, clearly shown in the alb
normal decreases in traffic and revenue.
The freight tonnage decreased over eigh-
teen per cent. and the ton mileage and
the gross earnings therefrom show fall
ing off of about twenty.one per cent. The
passenger traffic shows reduction Of
about ten per cent. in mileage and over
seven per cent. in revenue.
The average rate received for the trans
portation Of passengers was less than two
cents per mile. And Mr.. McCrea says
the railways, are not receiving reason
able compensation for the service per-
formed and for the comforts and facilities
furnished to the travelling public.
