Cutting Down Time.

Competition between the Hartman
and Hill lines for the mail-carrying con.
tracts between Chicago and the north
Whist has resulted in the adoption by
the Union Pacific ann Oregon Short
Line of the fastest schedule ever given
a train over the Hartman .ystem, the
quick service to become effective next
Sunday. Z.
The Chicago Portland. fast mail, which
splits into two sections at Granger Wyo
one of the, sections going to Ogden, will
under the new card reach this city
nearly one hour earlier. arriving at the
Short Line depot at about 1916. From
Granger to Huntington, a distance
of al miles, the train will consume
just l3 hours, record never before
made ON any of the Hartman lines.
This means running time of forty two
miles an hour, or. eliminating the stops,
gifty.one miles an hour.
The reduction In running time viii
place the Hartman lines on an equal
70 ting with the trains Of the northern
route, and will doubtless result In the

Every man who has his eyes open
in this great big west can see for
himself the encouraging things.
Pretty nearly every farmer in all
this wide inter-mountain west has
had the troubles of very little cash
TO start with and thousand obsta
Giles to overcome, and bigger per
centage of them have won out and
male themselves independent and
comfortable homes and won real
success in life than any other class
of men in any part of the world.
No class of men on earth have any
greater encouragement ahead of
them than the men who come here
short of money and long pluck and
euergy: The whole conquest Of
the west and and the mighty story
of its wonderful development is a
song of optimism for every new
conner. Every issue of the "Rural
Journal" and every other paper
worth while is full of it. The man
who can't win in the west can't win
any where.-Gem State Rural.

Weak Because He Was Strong.

Governor Brady was strong
enough to decline election to
the United States senate, last
winter, and insist that the
party keep its pledges and re-
elect Senator Hepburn. OPP
ponents of local option hoped
he was weak enough to accept
The rendered election and be-
gin his administration by con-
doning the breaking Of faith
with the people, and thus
open a way to defeat local
option. II e was stron g
enough To secure the passage
of the direct primary and
many other good laws. He
has. been strong enough to be
a factor in business and public
lie In Idaho almost since the
day he became citizen, and
he il strong enough to con
duct a repr oachless admins
tration. The people who
found him unexp e C e d y
strong when they attempted
to defeat local option by using
IA senatorial toga as bait, now
say he is weak" in the hope
of defeating him for rcnomi-
nation. Yes, he is weak
because be was stronghold
strong to be led from the pat
of duty by the most tempting
Of bait, and the people rather

His Son Andy.-Dr. Andrew ]. Nc
Gosh was in his college days famous
athlete. He could run faster, kick a
football farther and jump higher than
any man in Princeton. Publicly his
father, President McCosh, took no no.
tice of Andys achievements. That he
privately rejoiced in his sons prowess
the students learned in this way
Jimmy, as the president was famil-
iarly called, though exceedingly cour-
teous, was given to fits of abstraction
in which he entirely forgot his sur
roundings.
Once at a reception in his home, ap-
parenty forgetful of all the world, he
was pacing up and down the room
with head bent and hands interlocked
behind his back. Suddenly he walked
up before a young lady and asked:
How tall are ye?"
In an embarrassed way she replied,
why, doctor, Tm-Im five feet, two
inches"
Me son Andy could jump over yer
head" said the doctor and Immediately
resumed his walk.

Their Meeting Place.-The lady dean
of a well known girls college, being
very much annoyed that the girls after
chapel on Sunday waited around the
entrance of the assembly room and
stood in groups on the stairs instead
of dispensing at once, resolved to in
stitute a reform. So at the regular
chapel service one morning she arose
with much dignity and made the fol-
lowing remarks.
Il have noticed a growing tendency
among the young women to lmger
about the chapel Sunday mornings,
blocking the halls and stairs. Here
after the following order will be pre-
served in leaving chapel: First the
president will pass away, then | will
pass away, then the faculty members
will pass away, and finally the student
body by classes will pass away, and
we will all meet below

An lnconvenient Memory.-A sena-

recent years was making a speech,
says the Saturday Evening Post. Af-

pushed eagerly forward.
Hello, SENATOR" he shouted.
How do you do, sir?"
Say, senator, you remember me?

he was back.

The Favorite War.

In a sporting resort in the east end
of London a popular Irish pugilist was
matched against burly and clever ne
gro. The Irishman was hot favorite,
and his friends bet heavily that he
would whip his colored opponent. The
when in the first round the negro
reached the Irish fighters jaw and the
latters head thumped the boards with
a crash that seemed TO preclude fur
ther contest the following monologue
by the referee as he stood over the fall
len favorite, counting the seconds, took
place:
One" Un an undertone to his gasp
ing compatriot: Come on, man; get
up out o. that. Are yeZ goin' to let
this black son of Ham say he knocked
yez out0
Two! (Wurrah, man, can't yez
raise yourself and listen to what I'm
tellin' yez? Come on; get upD
Three! Cor the sake of yer fathers
that bled on many a field get up and
wipe up the floor with this black
smoke that's grinnin' at yeZD
-Four! Can sure are yez goin' to
lie there slapin' while this limb of
Satan takes all the money? Get up, l
say, afore l pull yez up"
This sort of entreaty continued until,
as the disgusted referee fingered on
the final count, the badly dazed Irish
pugilist staggered to his feet, swung
wildly at the unguarded negro and
bowled him over Unexpectedly.
Quick as a flash the ever ready ref
cree sprang to the PROSTATE colored
man, who, though daZed and weak,
was wildly struggling to regain his
feet, and counted
"One, two, three. four, five and five
is ten! You're out, YOU naygur!"

The TROOPERS Wise Steed.-TrooI


er Brown of the British Territorials
was green" His horse, likewise un-
accustomed to war, seemed from its
appearance and general structure to
have been not very long ago a dray
horse. But it was a wise animal and
had learned through experience that
to keep ones mouth shut is to avoid
many troubles. Much practice had
enabled it to keep its mouth shut very
successfully and very tight.
On the first morning parade in
Trooper Browns first camp the lieu
tenant rode down the lines of his
company.
"All the men turned out, sergeant
major? he queried.
"Yessir," said the sergeant major,
'all except Trooper Brown. He's
waiting for his horse to yawn SOS he
can slip the bit in. but the worst of it
is, sir, the brute doesn't seem a bit
tired."-Tit- Bits.

GaliIeo's TeIescope.-Verw few peo-
pie are aware that the first practical
telescope, which Galileo used in discov-
ering the satellites of Jupiter in jan
uary, 1910, is still in existence and pre-
served at the Museum of Physics and
Natural History in Florence.
1t is about 300 years since this in
strument was first turned toward the
heavens. Unlike the present astronom-
ical type, it had n concave instead
of convex eye-piece, just like the
opera glasses now in use.
When Galileo first exhibited his new
telescope to the Doge and an enthusi-
astic assembly on the tower of st.
Marks in Venice he was overwhelmed
with honors because it was thought
that the instrument would give the SOL
diers and sailors of the republic a
great advantage over their enemies

Senator Money regards the attempt
to neutralize the canal by treaty as Il
mistaken idea of economy. He be-
lieves that the waterway, costing a half
billion dollars, should be defended. and
doubts the efficacy OF an international
agreement to guarantee Its neutrality.
