MEXICAN CATTLEMEN
JOIN ASSOCIATIONS

Mexican cattle raisers are joining the
cattle associations of Texas in order
to protect their stock from the raids
of cattle rustlers who have been oper-
ating in northern Mexico during the
revolution. The cattle associations
have been making Investigations of
cattle shipments from Mexico to FL
Paso and wherever the cattle of a
member of the associations are con-
cerned, investigation and suits have
followed, as it is in violation OF the
state law against bringing stolen
property into the state.
Many of the Mexican cattle rarsers
who are refugees in Ell Paso, were not
aware Of the advantages of the member
ship in the Texas associations until it
was explained to them by local cattle
men. The result has been an increase
in the membership Of these associa-
lions.

CZAR'S WARDROBE COSTLY

The car Of Russia is the European
sovereign who spends most on his
wardrobe. The tailor who makes his
ordinary suits says the net annual
profit from them is $4,000, and tho
army tailor who Is responsible for the
uniforms and court dress makes $751;
900 year. His majesty never puts
on suit more than three times, and
each one costs about $50. For silk hats
the czar pays $26. and SO a pair for
gloves. Every year, it Is stated, he
purchases sable cape costing $4,000.
King George, on the other hand, 10
one Of the most economical of living
monarchs, allowing himself only $780,
900 year to dress on. This sum is
spent annually by the kaiser on uni.
forms alone. The German emperor,
however, pays very little attention to
his civil wardrobe He never pays
more than $35 for suit, which he
thinks nothing of wearing thirty times.
The principal luxury in dress he al
lows himself is in neckties.
With the king of Spain the favorite
article of dress is silk shirts, in which
he always hunts, and of which he buys
many dozens every year at $50 each.
The most frugal of all the crowned
heads in the matter of clothing is the
king of Norway, who spends no more
than an ordinary well-to-do citizen.

Railroads Fifty Years. Ago.

Railroads FIFTY Years. ago.
A curious relic of railroad operation
fifty years ago, down in Tennessee
and Georgia, is exhibited in the fol-
lowing extracts from the rules then
in force.
Each engineman will keep a watch
which must be regulated by the time
Of his conductor at the commence
ment of each trip, and will always
have in his possession the current
schedule book.
Should any stock be killed which
may be likely to endanger the safety
of the next train passing, the engine
man will stop his train until the track
is cleared.
AS general rule when trains meet
between stations, the train nearest
the turnout will run back. Any dis
pute as to which train has to retire is
to be determined at once by the con-
ductors, without any interference on
the part Of the enginemen. This rule
is required to be varied in favor Of the
heaviest loaded engine or the worst
grades. II they meet near the center,
in case Of backing, a man must be
placed on the lockout, so that any dan
ger to the rearmost part Of the train
may be seen and the engineman at
once receive notice. The backing must
be done Observation-Disclosures Mans

Scottish Dish.

The huckleber1y, or whortleberry,
or bilberry, has always been we'll
known. The Scots eat them with
milk, as we do, bat they also make a
jelly out of them, which is favored
with whisky.
Cranberries cali be found all over
the world where there Is marshy land,
but those of the United States are
considered the best and are exported
in great numbers to Europe.
The mulberry was cultivated by the
ancients and has played more i'm
portant part in literature than any
other berry. 1t IS mentioned several
times in the Bible, while Ovid speaks
of It in his famons tale of "Pyramus
and Thisbe"
The mulberry was brought from
Persia and the Romans much pre-
ferred 1t to any other fruit. 1t did not
reach England until 1913, and the
trees planted at Sion House during
the same year gre still alive. James
I. of England was exceedingly fond Of
the berry and caused large quantities

HAS 20 MINUTES SUNSHINE

There Is a busy town Of 500 tnhab-
ttants In Colorado where the sun
shines but 20 minutes out of each "a
hours. This town IS River Portal. 1t
Is located In Gunnison canyon and Is
the point from which the great Gun
nlson tunnel was run that the waters
OF that river might be conducted to
tho deserts beyond the mountain
range. The Gunnison canyon was
steep and precipitous and opposed
great difficulties to the engineers who
sought to divert it's waters. These
engineers cut road in the solid rock
or the canyons side and at the foot
OF that road planted town. This
Town was the headquarters for tho
spectacular engineering enterprise
that they had in mind. In the town
lived the working force which was
driving the tunnel through the noun
tain.
This. town was perched upon the
piece OF ground at the foot OF the
great cliffs that was most nearly
level. Even this spot, however, Of
Tered an opportunity of placing the
dwellings only in an irregular way
and one above the other. Here in
the mountains has existed for four
years busy little village with all
the elements Of modern civilization
brought with 1t into this isolation. In
the picture Uncle Sans public school
appears as the highest building in the
right hand background.
The strangest thing about this vii
lage Is the fact that 1t has but 20
minutes of sunshine every day. This
Is due to the precipitous walls that
rise on each side of the stream and
shut out the rays of the SUM- There
Is the brief period of 20 minutes be-
tween 11:20 and 11:4O when the sun
peeps over the bluff on the one side
OF the stream and before its rays have
been cut off by the high cliffs on the
other side. This one short span of
sunlight is all that these people OF
the canyon get year in and year out.

PERI On 4 AllLIRo GA \ i Acks'


In an eastern Kentucky town few
days ago five persons, returning from
church, were walking on railroad
track. They saw a train coming and
stepped OF OF one track onto another
only to be struck by an engine CON-
Ing from the other direction, which
they had not seen at all. i One Of the
party was killed and all the others
were injured. .:g
Walking on railroads Is extra haz-
ardous now that 80 many Of the roads
are operated by the double track sys-
tenn. It is a practice that is largely
prevalent In all parts of the country
and it is responsible for the great
bulk OF railway casualties which are
recounted in the quarterly reports OF
the Interstate commerce commission.
The number of railraod passengers kill
ed nowadays is comparatively few.
Some OF the biggest roads in tho Unit
ed States are able to carry hundreds OF
thousands Of passengers in the course
OF a years business without fatalities.
The Increase of safety appliances has
greatly reduced the lists of accidents
among railway employees, but the num-
Der of persons who are killed while
walking the tracks continues to in
crease from year to year.
The right of way Of railroad
which owns the road and is not pub
lie thoroughfare in the sense that
applies to street, turnpike or
neighborhood road. Persons who
walk on railroad right of way are
trespassers and incur a needless risk.
Those who trespass on the lands of
an individual subject themselves to
prosecution, but there is decidedly
less hazard in such trespasses than in
walking on railway tracks. It is some
what remarkable that a practice so
fraught with danger should be so
generally persisted In both in city and
In country. In cities and in villages
other thoroughfares are not lacking,
and the foolish and perilous custom
should be abandoned.-Louisville

Yellow Writing Paper Easy on Eyes.
Oculists have often called attention
to the fact that the eyes are easily
fatigued by the reflection from white
paper, especially when the surface is
under a strong light. Since green is
known to be the color most restful to
the eyes, 1t is a common practice to
use wall papers and draperies Of that
color in libraries and private studies.
For writing paper, however, green is
an unsatisfactory color. It imparts
reddish appearance to the writing and
makes 1t hard to read.
Yellow writing paper is net open to
the same objection. In strong day
light it is softer than pure white pa
per, and in artificial light is not too
dark. Black letters OF a yellowish
background show clear and distinct.
Many mathematicfans use yellow pa
per in figuring long and difficult cal
culations, and many writer's have
adopted it for manuscripts. It has
the additional merit Of cheapness.-
