ALL-STEEL SLEEPING CARS.

There are seventy five all-stee archaeological
Pullman sleeping in active service on the lines
of the Pennsylvania Railroad System
These "Dreadnaught'' cars-fre- proof and break
proof-are running the through trains between
New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago, St. Louis,
Nashville, Indianapolis Cincinnati Cleveland, Wheel
ing, Pittsburgh, Baltimore and Washington.
Six hundred al-steel Pullman cars have been
ordered by the Pennsylvania Railroad System, and
they are being delivered and placed in service at the
rate of sixty month
"Dreadnaught'' cars are fifty per cent heavier
and over SIXTY per cent more expensive than wooden
cars but the Pennsylvania Railroad considers the in
crease in expense fully justified by the increase in the
safety and comfort of its passengers
Including coaches, dining cars baggage and
postal cars there 70 steel in service present
and this number will be increased to some 1000 in all
as fast as the shops turn them out.

DISCOVERS SECRET OF
ANCIENT EGYPTIANS

Much interest is being manifested
in the claims of William H. SWEET
who says he has discovered the secret
of preserving flesh, fish and cereals
used by the ancient Egyptians AS
proof of his assertions, SWEET ex-
hibited a number of roses that had
been allowed to wither for a year.
BY the simple process of moistenine
the petals the flowers resumed their
original freshness and color and the
withered buds burst into bloom.
Corn on the cob, dried year ago,
was restored by merely being placed
in water overnight, so that 1t not
only looked but tasted fresh.
SWEET says that for Is years he
has been experimenting, seeking for
the element which, successfully ap-
piled by the ancients, kept disintegra-
tion from affecting food products,
and recently he discovered this ele-
ment.
The apparatus by which he accom-
plishes the results, which he expects
will revolutionize the canning indus
try and the preservation Of meats,
is a queer-looking affair. \ fire
burns in both ends of the oblong
case. Horizontal screened slides bear
the product TO be preserved Air
constantly circulates within. That is
all
The process is not expensive, the
work is quickly done and the prod
ucts keep indefinitely, SWEET claims.

Taking Down the Old Bridge.

The old bridge at the foot of Sixth
street will soon be a thing of men,
ory only. The men engaged in talk
ing down the structure have made
progress from day to day. First the
false work, which consisted of piles
driven at intervals in the bottom Of
the river nearly across the stream,
and upon these the timbers were
stretched. When this work was COM
pleted the bridge was lowered and
allowed to rest on this work, and
then comenced the tearing down pro-
ces. The approach on the south
side of the river was first to go down,
after which the bridge men com
menced on the main span on the
north side. Bolts and braces were
loosened. and piece by piece the up

Would Take His Place i'm Prison.

Fifteen years ago George Isaacs,
now a wealthy planter in Honduras,
and at one time a prosperous cattle
man in west Texas, planned a bogus
express robbery, which failed. In
the pursuit of the gang the sheriff
was killed. 1saacs was captured and
given a life sentence. While in the
penitentiary Isaacs met w. J. Dent,
who was serving two years for forg-
cry. Isaacs had served six years
when Dent was released. Dent pro-
cured a pardon blank at the state
capital and filled it out. On presen-
tation to the warden of the Hunts
vile penitentiary Isaacs ives released.
Dent was later captured and SEN
fenced to serve out the balance Of
Isaacs' life term. Friends of Isaacs
are said to have paid Dent $2,500
for the pardon. This was nine years
ago. Isaacs has written to the Texas
authorities offering to return and
serve out the life sentence provided
Dent is released.

Some Reasons Why.

Some of our local merchants COM
plain because they are not getting
more trade from the farmers ada
cent to our city. The following story
tells the reason why or at least gives
the opinion Of an enterprising farm
er on the subject.
A local dealer was much put out
recently because so many Of the
farmers were buying of the Chicago
mail order houses. One farmer liy-
ing close to town was cornered the
other day and asked about 1t: asked
why he didn't patronize home in
dustry and trade with home dealers,
who made a market for the products
Of the farm, etc. The farmer replied
that he could do better by buying of
the catalogue houses. The dealer
then asked the farmer for his order
blank and did a little figuring on it.
Why" he said at last, 'I could
have saved you $3.50 on that order
and have given you better grade
of goods, and you would have gotten
the goods right away"
well" said the farmer, "why in
heck didn't you say so before? Why
didn't you tell people in the papers
what you have to sell and give your
prices?" BY advertising aggressively
and persistently every hour of the
day and night it isn't questioned but
the results will be satisfactory.

senger boy in the employ of the Car
negie Trust company, by forging the
name of the third telles, secured a
registered mail package containing
$4,000. He bought $4,000 of ira
velers' checks and with these and
$4,000 in cash he went to Jersey City
and told his sweetheart he had made
the money in Wall street. He per-
suaded the girl to elope. They were
married in Chicago. From there
they went to Los Angeles, Cal, where
they were arrested.

THE COMING OF THE KING.

They were all in all to each other, those two,
In their home spck and span and new;
For him there was none like his sweet wife,
And to her he dearer far than life.
But one day, bright with the sunshines gold,
When the year exactly four weeks old,
A wee, wee laddie fresh from the skies
In the pretty bird'snest opened his eyes.
And the two longer all in ALL
For the wee, lad holds their hearts in thrall
No monarch rules with more absolute sway;
1t is his to comand, it is theirs to obey.
May Heaven the Three shower blessings rare,
And watch them with loving care!
And may the bright wee, bonny boy
Fill all the years with a wealth of joy!

Texico N. NJ, June 24.-Quite a
sensation was caused here by man,
aged about thirty years, who tried to
pass a number of checks that were
worthless. One check was on the First
National bank of Plainview, Texas,
the other on the Citizens National
Bank of Plainview. The first was for
$1,000 and the second for $1,000 He
offered the $1,000 check to Cashier
George Moreland to be cashed and
desired to leave the $1,000 check for
deposit. He finally left the checks
for collection and made the rounds of
Texico passing checks in smaller
amounts for supplies and booze which
he loaded in his buggy. He rode out
of town in a hurry but the banks auto
was soon in pursuit and brought the
genial visitor back, who in default of
$3.50 bail, was taken to the county Jail
at Clovis.

of New Mexico, at the New Willard

themselves to grant statehood to New
Mexico and Arizona, and every man in
Congress knows that they are entitled
to join the Union from all points of
view.
president Taft is making every ef-
fort to induce Congress to pass the
measure, but if this body sees fit to
disregard the Presidents recommen-

there is, no one to suffer from it but
the Republican party. President Taft,
personally, can no be blamed if the
bill does no pass, but the Republican
party will be the sufferer.
Il am on my way to New York to
be among those present when Colonel
Roosevelt returns on Saturday. The
colonel stands just as high in the es-

CHARLTON'S PLEA
IS INSANITY
Announcement of Prelimi-

Crowd to Court Room
ITALY MAY ASK FOR MURDERER
State Department May Refuse to
Honor Extradition Papers
in Case.

New York June 24.-The dingy
court room at HOboken was packed
to suffocation this morning by curl
Gus people, court officials and lawyers
to attend the preliminary hearing of
Porter Charlton, the self-confessed
murderer Of his wife, whose body was
found in a trunk in Lake Como, Italy
At the request of the attorneys of
Charlton, who had just been brought
into the case, adjournment was taken
until Tuesday to enable him to famil-
iarize themselves with the case The
defense for Charlton will be insanity.
Should requisition be made by the
Italian government, which no doubt
will be done, pending its arrival here,
Charlton will be examined for his
sanity. 1t is thought very unlikely
that the state department would
grant a requisition should it develop
Charlton's mind is unsound.
May Not Ask for Extraditon.
Rome, June 24.-While judicial au-
thorities say that the Italian govern
ment will demand the extraditon of
Porter Charlton, the sentiment of the
government inclines to the plan of
asking Washington to have the pris-
oner tried in the United States.
