TRA|NMEN CONFIDENT
OF GETTING DEMANDS

New York, Jan. 2l.-The announce
ment today that the New York Cen
trail. the Erie and the Lackawanna
railroads had refused the demands of
the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
including the conductors, was dis
counted tonight at eastern headquar-
tiers of the trainmen.
Although it is definitely known
said Secretary p. X. Williams, that
all of the railroads east of the Missis-
sippi river and north of the Ohio
will not accede to the demands. it
should be understood by the public
that the railroads and the trainmen
are working tremendously. and that
all talk of strike is premature If not
foolish. Our demands have been
turned down today. but each road has
expressed wish for further con-
ference which clearly indicates that
more money is coming to the men,"

IS DEFINED
STRAHORN OF NORTH COAST is
SAID TO BE BACKED BY
THE u. P.

Spokane. Wash. Jan. si.-Robert T.
Strahorn of Spokane. president of the
North Coast Railway company. who
has figured in the newspapers of the
continent for two years as the man of
mystery" and whose project is the
enigma of the railroad world. is de-
clared by The Spokane Press to be
the western representative of the
Union Pacific System. The Press says
it has positive Information that the
North Coast line is being constructed
between Spokane and Seattle and
points on Puget sound to give the
Oregon Railroad & Navigation COM
pany coast connections from Spokane
and Walla Walla. adding that this is
necessary to enable the Hartman sys-
tenn to secure its share of grain ton
mage from the Paiouse and Big Bend
districts in eastern Washington, which
produced 35.15n,00o bushcl of wheat in
1909. The North Coast company has
expended more than S5.000,00o for
right -of-way and terminal grounds in
eastern Washington in the last If
months. but so far President StraEurn
has not disclosed the identity of the
hackers o: the project. He will neither
deny nor affirm the latest connection

MEETING PLANNED
IN EAST
REPRESENTATIVES OF TRAIN
MEN TO CONFER OVEN
UNION TROUBLES.

Cleveland. Jan. 2l.-President w. G
Trainmen and Grand Chief 4. b. Gar
retson of the order of Railway Con-
ductors will meet i'm the east Monday
TO enter formally upon negotiations
that will determine the outcome of the
present dispute between the railroads
and their employees. President Lee an
nounced tonight before leaving for
Chicago that he has already picked
out one railroad which will be made
a test for the trainmen's demands.
Owing to the fact that the replies re-
ceiSed are practically uniform. the tive
brotherhood leaders believe that a set
tiement on one road will lead TO a
similar adjustment on all the others
The real dispute, ii is conceded, will
come on the question Of payment to
the train crews for work done before
starting on the days run. The men
want pay from the time they. report
for duty. The statement of Chairman
j. c. Stewart of the General Mana
gers association that wages undoubt-
eddy will be raised was received with
satisfaction at the brotherhood head
quarters here.
The railroads are meeting us in the
same spirit Of fairness as we are meet
ing Them said President Lee. II
cannot say when the negotiations will
open, but it will be soon--probably as
soon as Grand Chief Garrctson and |
arrive in New York"

1t anything but a musical diversion"
and it lives up to that. The chorus
numbers bob up on every occasion
without warning. but they are musical

do not spoil the plot. which belongs to
the immune variety. Among the
striking song numbers are ALE"

Romeo and Juliet They are replcte

bLACKFOOT BRANCH
PROGRESSES
CONSTRUCTION WORK IN the
CANYON ABOVE BONNER is
BEING RUSHED.

The winter is proving a busy one for
the Blackfoot valley. The sound of
falling trees and axe blows. which in
the past have been the only disturb
ances in the valley have been drowned
out of late by the busy hum of rail-
road construction. Slowly. but sure
ly. a grade is being built up the val
ley and, despite the severity OF the
weather, the work is progressing
rapidly.
The R|ackfoot road. as it is called.
has had good start towards COM
pletion already and the canyon is
filled with construction crews. There
are three camps above Bonner, each
camp quartering 80 men, and the
grading work between the camps is
progressing rapidly. Rock ballast is
being used everywhere and the new
line will be typical Of the Puget
Sound. the real builder of the line.
The identity of the road is still
denied in engineering circles. 1t is
being built and handled by an indie
pendent company. but the Puget
Sound is admittedly behind it. In a
suit recently instituted by the road
ing a road up the Blackfoot and the
previous rumors regarding the identity
of the branch have been confirmed
The present road will connect with the
Big Blackfoot Milling Company's
lumber road above the SixMile land-
ing and from the Camas prairie end
of that road it will run UP to the
Canadian boundary

STRIKE SETTLEMENT
APPEARS HOPELESS

There seems to be but little prospect
of settlement of the switchmen's
strike at present. The railroads have
refused TO take any steps towards
settlement and it looks as if there
were To be nothing now save long
fight. The railroad companies refuse
to recognize the switchmen's union
any longer. According to the COM
panies there is no strike. Yesterday
the local union received word that a
check had been sent from St. Paul and
the relief will probably reach here
within the next few days. Switching
in the yards goes on as usual. Traf-
fic over the Rocky Mountain division
yesterday was good for this season

An exceedingly ugly man, says tho
Persian Joe Miller, was once in the
mosque, asking pardon Of Allah for
his sins and praying to be delivered
from the fires Of hell. One who over
heard his prayers said to him: where
fore, 0 friend, wouldst thou cheat hell
Of such a countenance? Art thou re-
luctant to burn up face like that?"
Another story the Persian jester tells
is that certain person with hideous
nose was once on a time wooing q wo-
man. Describing himself to her and
trying to make an attractive picture,
he said, II am q man devoid Of light
ness and frivolity, and / am patient in

not patient in bearing Affections thou
hadst never endured thy nose these

The Making Of Lenses.


The essential part Of any device for
the study Of the starry millions-the
suns, planets, comets anc the nebulae
that are perhaps new worlds In the
making--is the lens or the optical train
that consists Of series Of lenses. It
Is this that makes the modern science
Of astronomy possible. There IL abso-
lutely no other human occupation that
requires the accuracy Of observation
and the delicacy Of touch that are
requisite for the making Of the finest
lenses. These are the most perfect
products Of human hands. 1t may
convey some idea Of the labor requir-
ed In the making Of a large lens to
say that at least one years time is re-
CURED for the grinding and polishing
Of a thirty inch object glass. A little
lens two inches in diameter requires
the unremitting care and attention OF

days. 1t is easy, then, to see why 1t Is
that even lenses Of high class photo
graphic work are costly. A forty inch
object glass for a large telescope can
not be made in much less than four
years. time, and il everything does not

PEARL. DIVERS OF JAPAN.
Women and Young Girls Who Are Ex-

Women and Young Girls Who Are Ex-
pert Swimmers.
The pearl divers Of Japan are the
women. Along the coast Of the bay
of Ago and the bay of Gokasho the
thirteen and fourteen year old girls,
after they have finished their primary
school work. go to sea and learn to
dive. They are in the water and learn
to swim almost from babyhood, and
they spend most Of their time In the
water except in the coolest season,
from the end of December to the be-
ginning of February.
Even during the most inclement Of
seasons they sometimes dive for pearls.
They wear a special dress, white un-
derwear and the hair twisted up into
hard knot. The eyes are protected
by glasses to prevent the entrance Of
water. Tubs are suspended from the
waist.
A boat in command Of a man is as
signed to every five to ten women
divers to carry them to and from the
fishing grounds. When the divers ar
rive on the grounds they leap into the
water at once and begin to gather oys-
tiers at the bottom. The oysters are
dropped into the tubs suspended from
their waists.
When these vessels are filed the div
ers are raised to the surface and jump
into the boats. They dive to depth
Of from five to thirty fathoms without
any special apparatus and retain their
breath while remaining under water
from one to three minutes. Their ages
vary from thirteen to forty years, and
between twenty-five and thirty-fve
they are at their prime.-New York
Sun.
