Tunnel Does Away With Ferries.

The two-track tunnel of the Michi- gan Central railroad, which for sev. eral years has been under construc' tion beneath the Detroit river be- tween Detroit and Windsor, Ont. has been opened for service. It was con- sidered desirable to familiarize the operating staff of the railroad with conditions before passenger service was inaugurated, and therefore the first trains run through were freight trains. This tunnel will take the place of the powerful railroad car fer ries, which for so many years have been a prominent feature in transpor. tation at this point.-Scientific Ameri. can.

FIRE BOYS HAVE
 A FEW WORDS


 of some practical jokes, which are likely to prove disastrous to someone in the future The mem. bers of this fire department are getting extremely weary of be- ing called out to run five or six blocks under a red-hot sun, to put out a small blaze in a hen coop or a dry goods box in some body's back yard, and to find on arrival that same has been put out, and to be met at the fence by an irate housewife and called "slow."
 We would like to call the peo- ple's attention to the fact that the Santa Fe Fire Department is maintained by the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway Company, for the protection of their own property and when these boys turn out to put out fire in the city, their work is gra- tis to the city, and should be ap- preciated.
 On no less than three different occasions in the past month. these boys have responded to the fire alarm, and run from four to seven blocks to render help where they supposed help was needed, only to find, on the first occasion, small hencoop in the back yard; on the second, some smoking bed-clothes in a cot, which had been lighted by a cigarette. and on the last occa- sion, which was quite recently, they found "nothiug at all. !"
 The boys had run five blocks, through dust ankle deep and under scorching sun in answer to the signal of distress, only to find that again they were the subject of another joke, and doubtless the perpetrators, from behind curtained windowe, en. joyed seeing the angry looks ot the boys as they coughed dust, wiped sweat and "cussed" These same "jokers" are likely to pay very dearly for this en. joyment, however.
 We remember distinctly one occasion during the month ot December last, about g o'clock p. m. the fire alarm was given the "City Fire Department" il such may be called fire depart. :. ment, turned out," that Is the V turned out" until they reached the Parlor Saloon where they turned in'', thinking 1t best, nc doubt, to attend to their own personal needs, aud put the in. ner fire out first. Of course, this took considerable time and in tie meantime the Santa Fe Fire Department were busy as usual; the boys had left warm fresides, places of enjoyment, or wherever they happened to be, to take their places in the "run;'' the fire was gotten under control long before the arrival of the City Department from the Par Tor Saloon, and when they did finally arrive their services were not needed.
 A well organized fire depart ment, whether it be a bucket brigade, a hose cart and reel, o1 fire engine and hook and ladder wagon, is something that every city, town or hamlet should not be without. It is no credit tc the town Of Winslow that there IS such well organized team ot fire fighters as the Santa Fe boys for they have received no en couragement from the city, al though they have saved thous ands of dollars worth of proper ty for the city. A bill of twenty two dollars was handed to the city by the Santa Fe Fire De partment, to compensate them for clothes ruined in fighting z

Decoration of the Golden Rose.

While not precisely an order of cht-
valry or knighthood the Golden Rose
is a decoration bestowed by the Popes
on those whom they wish to honor.
It is formed of wrought gold, and Is
blessed by the Pope on the fourth
Sunday in Lent The rose is anointed
with balsam, fumed with incense, and
sprinkled with musk, and is placed on
the altar during mass. The golden
rose. is usually presented to a Catho-
lie prince or princess as a token Of
papal esteem, with an appropriate
form of words. The custom of be-
slowing this decoration appears to
have originated about the thirteenth
century. Among the recipients have
been Henry VIII (who received &
three times), Mary of England, Maria
Teresa, Napoleon III, and Isabella II
of Spain. The golden rose is one or
the most ancient of existing decora-
tions, and is much valued by its re-
cipients.
