LIGHTNING VERSUS STEAM.
Testing the Telegraph In the Early
Days Of Its Invention.

Years ago, when the electric tele-
graph was n new idea and a mystery
to the masses. there came trouble one
Saturday night in the Bank of Eng.
land. The business of the day had
closed and the balance was not right.
There was deficit of just f100. 1t was
not the money. but the error. that
must be found. For the officers and
the clerks there could be no sleep until
the mystery had been cleared up. All
that night and all Sunday a force OF
men were busy: money was surely
gone from the vaults, but no one could
discover whence.
On the following morning n clerk
suggested that the mistake might have
occurred in packing for the West In
dies some boxes of specie that had
been sent TO Southampton for ship
ment. His chief acted on the sugges-
ton. Here was an opportunity to test
the powers of the telegraph ghtning
against steam. and steam with forty
eight hours the start. Very soon the
telegraph asked a man in Southamp-
ton, HAS the ship Mercator sailed"
The answer came back. Just weigh
ing anchor"
''Stop her in the queens name,"
flashed back the telegraph. "She is
stopped" was returned.
"Have on deck certain boxes (marks
given, weigh them carefully and let
me know the result" telegraphed the
chief.
This order was obeyed. and one box
was found to be somewhere about ono
pound and ten ounces heavier than its
mates-just the weight of the missing
sovereigns. "All right. Let the ship
gor' was the next order.
The West India house was deblted
with the fl00 and the Bank Of Eng
land was at peace again.-IIarper's

you could not look furtively around and

thing waiting for his $3.50, which al
ways seemed due or overdue from some

A SAMPLE OF MEXICAN
ADMINISTRATION
And How the lnsurrectos Avengee'
Themselves.

John Lord. in Boston Transcript.
Some years ago Miguel Ahumada wa
governor of Chihuahua; he was honest
progressive and aggressive. and a great
friend of the Americans. He did muc..
to make Chihuahua the greatest ant
richest state in Mexico. But he did no
please the T~errazas-Creel faction: he
was too honest and much in their way,
so they induced Diaz to remove him
and he was sent to the state of Jalisco
as governor, n the great and rich
state of Chihuahua turned over in fee
simple to Terrazas and Creel.
Luis Terrazas owned a large part OF
Chihuahua and became governor, and
he wished to run the state on the plan
of one of his ranches. He made a fam
lily affair out of it; he appointed his
son-in-law, Enrique Creel, provisional
governor and stood by to see how En-
rique would do. Terrazas was satisfied
that Creel would do his bidding, and
then retired to let Creel become con.
stitutional governor-the real thing
and he has remained governor these
many years.
While Creel was in Washington San
chez ran the state under Terrazas'
tutelage and direction; he retired wher
n revolution occurred and Alberto
Terrazas, son Of the old man. was APP

furiated the rebels all the more, ant
hoping to pacify them. Dia sent for
and put him in Alberto Ter
razas' place. Ahumada was ALWAYS
first. honest and popular and much
loved In Chihuahua-but he came too
late and has accomplished nothing.
When Ahumada left Chihuahua some
years g the state owed $500, 900. and
when he returned the state owed the
~Terrazas-Creel banks-$6, 900, 900 at lc
per n interest-and there was no
public works or Improvements to show
for this enormous debt. And thus it is
In almost every state of Mexico. Men
nave been left long in power and pos
session of office: Diaz has grown very
old and has left the administration OF
affairs more INC more to those around
him; abuses have been perpetrated on
the people. graft has been rampant
throughout the land, and the reckoning
day has come.
The first blow of the revolution rel,
upon Terrazas. All his ranches have
been continually occupied by the reb-
els; his books n papers were all de-
stroyed; his debt slaves set free: his
many thousand horses have formed the
rebel cavalry: his cattle, provisions and
flour mills have fed them; his stores
clothed them and his grain and hav
fed their horses.
His relatives have been caught and
held for ransom, and this has FURNISH
ed the revolution with much money.
The Creel ranches have suffered ike

rich government officials.

From the Kansas city Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
Is there anything in the combination
Of alkali. sagebrush. cactus and sun
shine, that leaves q lasting effect on q
person?
Yes, there is" was the answer OF
Maj. Andrew Drumm. SO years old.
president OF h Drumm Commission
company at the Kansas City stock
yards yesterday. There was a pause.
He looked from his office window in tina
pens and viaducts. Then he continued
slowly:
The alkali and sunshine form tina
neat that burns the brand of cactus
and sagebrush on ones vision. If the
brand has been burned in deeply by
time there is no changing It.
The, most pleasant surroundings.
both socially and in business, cannot
wipe out h impression of things az
they used to be. To my minds vision
Kansas is not the and of grain and
wealth that l really see, but a stretch
OF prairie, Wild grass M sand hills:
Oklahoma, the Indians happy huntinx
ground. n Texas, the land that never
ends, but stretches on and on, through
burning sum- irritating alkali and dane
ing cactus n ~sagebrush. That is what
l saw years ago, and still see, and it
made me a ranchman and such I will
continue to be. \
"A good ranchman is hard to md
now and in a few years his line will be
extinct, made SO by necessity"
And you recently bought the Double
Circle Ranch near Clifton, Ariz., at
1890. 600 because you long for the range
life?" Major Drumm was asked.
Theoretically, yes; from the pracS
tfcal side. no. 1 consider the ranching,
business q good money investment for
longing for the freedom of the range
lends zeal to my investment. Cattle
are a better investment now than they
were a decade ago, II handled rightly
and the time has arrived when the
feeder Of cattle. in h corr belt. feels
farmers in the scarcity Of southwest
cattle. The man who still has a large
range and an raise cattle cheaply Is
making the bulk OF the money In the
cattle business. and will continue { o do
so until farmers raise more CATTLE"
Major Drumm is still active in BUSH
ness at the Kansas City stock yards
and keeps in close touch with his ranch
business by frequent visits. In 1870 he
trailed cattle out Of Texas to northern
pastures and a few years later had un-
der q 500. ZOO acres of pasture in the
he has grazed as high as $4,000 cattle.
And for all the cattle handled, he
says. he has found a ready market.
The Double Circle ranch recently
purchased by Major Drum includes go
acres Of irrigated land near clifton

and IS miles broad. On the irrigated
land all sorts Of grain, vegetables ana
fruit are grown and on the anR is.
cowboys are with $4,000 cattle day and

land and the high class Of cattle raised
1t is nearly like the range Of years
ago." Major Drumm said.
The Double Circle ranch derives its
name from two circles, one inside the
other. branded on the side Of the cat
tie. 1t was established Is years ago by
| Hampson brothers.
