From Pole to Pole.

Dreams of Pan-American rail-
road that will fink the Hudson Bay
with the Artic Ocean are within
measurable distance of realization.
Last week the rails were Joined of the
great longitudinal railway in Chile
from Idulque to Puerto Montt. This
line covers about 1850 miles. When
completed the road will extend from
the frontier to Peru to the Straits OF
Magellan.
So far back as 1881 the idea was
mooted of a railway joining the North
and South continents through Cen
trail America, but practical railway
men secuted the scheme at the time
as visionary and impracticable. In
1890, however, practical steps were
taken, at an international conference
to carry out the work, and steady
progress has been made since then,
with the result that the undertaking
is now regarded not only as feasible
but as a financially sound PROPOSE

For the Blessings Bestowed.

Thankfulness makes >the ordinary
and simple gifts of God shine with
morning luster, and exudes the rarest
perfume. There are. two ways to get
rich-one is to increase the number
of our dollars, the other is to in
crease the values of the few dollars
we already have. Thankfulness raises
the blessings we already have to
higher degrees of worth, and thereby
enriches us. If thankfulness does not
create new roses, it paints a finer
hue on those we have; if it does not
load our table, it puts delicious
sweetness in our simple fare; if it
does not clothe our bodies in costly
raiment, it lends a sweetness of be-
havior to our bodies, SO that we do
not need such raiment to make us
attractive. All other beautiful graces
of Christian character are lacking in
luster without the shining grace of
gratitude to God for His abundant
mercies and unceasing loving kind
ness to the children of men.

HURT IN GAS EXPLOSION.
Score or More Injured-Great Dam
age to Property.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. 25.-A score
or more persons were injured, many
windows were broken and a number
of buildings shaken by an explosion
of gas in a nine foot sewer in the
Lawrenceville district of Pittsburg
late to-day. None of the injured will
die, but the property loss will amount
to many thousands of dollars.
Buildings were damaged and per-
sons injured within radius of three
miles. Thousands of windows were
shattered and two dwelling houses
in 34th street collapsed. A sewer lid
weighing 80 pounds was blown
through a city fire engine house.
Three large tanks containing thous-
ands of gallons of gasoline were
overturned in the yards of the Pc
troleum Products Company, Liberty
avenue and 23rd street, and the fluid
poured into the wrecked sewers.
Danger of second explosion caused
the city authorities to order all lights
except electric extinguished.
A furnace filled with molten metal
at the Cold Roller Steel Company's
plant was upset and the mill caught
fire.

RESOURCES OF SIBERIA.
Amur River Country Rich in Mining
and Crop Possibilities.

A recent traveller in the Amur
River country speaks of wonderful
possibilities of development there.
Wealthy though it is, the district is
but little known. The Amur is navi-
gable for a distance of 1000 miles,
from Nicolaivsk, at the mouth, to
Stretnsk. The whole country ap-
peared fine and promising. There
are wide plains, wholly uncultivated,
on which grows excellent grass,
about three feet high, of fine texture.
These plains, it is estimated, would
support millions of sheep or cattle.
The soil is of a good quality and of
deep black.
In the gardens and plantations
where settlements have arisen beau
tiful crops of all descriptions were to
be seen-wheat, barley, oats, and po-
tatoes in abundance. Through the last
600 miles to the sea the country is
one expanse of splendid forest, both
on Russian and Chinese territory. In
every mountain gully there were
Chinese prospectors seeking gold. A
100, 100000 people could be settled
in this white mans country.
Easily navigable, the Amur pro-
vides a great natural highway for
traffic from end to end. 1t is strange
that neither the Chinese on the south
nor the Russians on the north appear
to have made any serious effort to
develop the resources of the country.
The Russians are adopting strong
measures to prevent the advance of
Chinese on this territory, but as yet
Chinese are to be seen everywhere.
On the river bank opposite to Bla-
goveshchensk a prosperous Chinese
city has grown up, but no native
boatman is allowed to cross the river
from that side. Chinese may only
use the ferry, which is Russian
monopoly, upon obtaining from the
Russian Consul special permit. The
political situation is distinctly inter
esting. AS to the antiquity of Chinese
in this part of Siberia, there
are evidences that the gold mines
were worked by them centuries ago.
Growing out of some of the old work
ings are trees of great size and age.

Breweries Far From Civilization.

There's brewery somewhere
east of the Hay river was the re-
port brought into Sergeant r. Field
at the Chipewyan station little
over a year ago. If some one had
arrived with a two-headed moose,
or live, kicking moose with no head
at all, Sergeant Field would not
have been more amazed. For the
HAY river is thin black line run-
ming through the white terra incog-
nita south of the Great Slave lake.
A brewery 500 miles from civillza-
ton. And not only that, but in the
heart of q country that even the
map-makers have left blank! Field
made a personal investigation, and
he found a happy lot of Indians
among whom ''fire-water" was quite
as common as it used to be down in
Kentucky. He found that nearly
every ''buck" was the proprietor OF
brewery and that life south OF
the Great Slave lake was one long
and joyous spree A strange white
man had sold the secret of making
'.'fire-water" to the Indians, and they
were making brew" of potatoes,
hops, sugar and yeast, which, when
allowed to ferment, was strong
enough to cause intoxication. Dur
ing the warm summer months the
Indians raised potatoes for this
brew, but in scarcely any instance
can they be persuaded to grow any
thing for food.-From Unknown

Thought to Have Fun.

Saul Vaughn, well-known and
prosperous old negro farmeraof Lam
caster, sustained loss of about S400
early Tuesday morning in the de
struction by fire of his barn and its
contents. His grandchild, boy of
10 or IL years old, wishing to see a
blaze, it is said, deliberately set fire
to the building, probably thinking
he would extinguish it after soaring
the neighborhood with an alarm of
fire, but as the barn contained about
a bale of ginned cotton lot Of cot
ton seed, several bales Of hay, fodder,
corn and other highly infiammable
material, the fire soon got beyond
control of the little negro. and in a
few minutes all was lost.

INDIANS TELL NO TALES.
Never Turn Informer Against Men
Who Sell Them liquor.

If the jointists and bootleggers of
Topeka and other parts of Kansas
had only Indians for customers they
would be happy and their law-break-
ing life would be a long round of
Joy, says a Kansas City (Mo.) dis
patch. The Indian who buys drink
of "40-rod" liquor from a Kansas
jointist never tells the police who
sold the liquor. He will tell any
number of his own people, but not
white man will learn who furnished
the "booze." It is seldom that the
government ever is able to bring into
court man or woman for selling
liquor to the Indians.
Twelve miles north of Topeka lies
the Pottawatomie Indian Reserva-
tion, all that remains in tribal form
of this once powerful people. At
one time the Pottawatomies inhabit-
ed all the Northern Illinois and
Southern Wisconsin and numbering
about $4,000 persons. There are now
less than 400 on the reservation and
it is asserted that about 200 have re-
turned to Wisconsin and now are
living there.
There are two railroad stations on
the reservation and no train ever
comes to Topeka without bringing
from one to a dozen Indians. Many
of the Indians get drunk every time
they come to Topeka and they come
to Topeka every time they can raise
enough money to pay the railroad
fare and buy liquor.
1--WE have arrested scores OF drunk
en- Indians, but not once has one OF
them ever given us the name or the
location of the man who sold him the
liuuor," said J. W. F. Hughes, chief
of police of Topeka. THE Indians
will actually work on the rock pile
rather than tell the name of the man
or the place where they got drunk.
They generally won't tell why they
refuse to give us this information,
but the other day an Indian said ne
was afraid the supply would be shut
off. But we never have been able to
make an arrest on information OBJ
tanned from an Indian. A white man
who gets drunk usually tells us
where he got the liquor even before
he is sober and is always willing to
tell us soon as he has sobered up.
But an Indian never turns informer.
1.-The Topeka police have never had
to fight drunken Indian, as they
often have to fight white men. The
Indian doesn't mind being 'pinched
or even being put to work on the
rock pile for three or four days

DYNAMITE IN AUTOS PATH.
Pittsburg Motorists Have Been Driv-
ing Over Scattered Explosives.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. 24.-The po-
lice let it be known to-day for three
weeks automobiles have been flirt-
ing with death as they drove along
Grant boulevard, the favorite motor
track between the fashionable East
End district and downtown Pitts
burgh. During that time they have
collected 120 sticks of dynamite, ap-
parently scattered Systematically
over the road. Yesterday they locat-
ed another lot in the boulevard and
arrested Herman Leidman, alleging
he knew something of the robbery
of a contractors magazine, from
which they declare the dynamite was
stolen.

Mad Cow Makes Him Toreador.

New York, Nov. 21.-Harry Cren-
ming, weight 265 pounds, leading
citizen of South River, N. j., and
Janfes K. Peterson, an almost equal
" prominent citizen, went qaull
hunting before daylight yesterday In
the swamps between South River and
Metuchen near the Raritan River.
They had bagged few birds when
there came smashing of the under
brush and a COW charged them. Peter
son went up a chestnut tree with
alacrity.
Crenning got to the tree but could
not climb it. He faced the COW and
grappled it by the horns. The ami
NAL swung him off his feet again and
again and smashed him against the
tree. But Crenning held on. Final
ly a horn came off, the cow bawled
with pain and then rushed off into
the swamps.
Crenning had been badly cut and
bruised. At nearby farmhouse
Peterson telephoned to Mayor John
Fee of South River, who arrived with
an automobile and doctors.
It was learned that the COW had
suddenly gone mad and had run away
from the Culver farm, about a mile

The Prize Enigma.

Half a dozen men were discussing
the effects of the reduced tariff as
they were eating lunch, says The
Philadelphia Ledger. This from a
lawyer, Charles J. Murtaugh: L
bought pair of gloves, for which l
paid 81. I asked the salesman from
whom I had previously purchased
gloves if the tariff wasn't going to
give me a bit of a reduction. The
salesman said there might be diff
ference of IL cents, but the manufac-
turer would take about half and the
store the other half, and the custo-
mer would get nothing"
Noah H. Swayne, H., purveyor of
pig iron and dispenser of a high
grade of vocal music, added: What
reduction will I get on this new
suit?' 1 asked my tailor. None,' ne
replied, as the difference in the act
ual cost of the wool is only 81 or so.
Labor is the chief element in your
clothes, and the tariff has not re-
duced the price of that commodity y
President Ripley, of the Atchlson
railroad, says the lower tariff will not
reduce transportation company re-
ceipts. And yet we'll known man
ufacturer in Camden tells me that the
Underwood bill actually threatens to
take away every dollar of his profit.
Whatever else it is, the tariff ques-
ton remains the prize economic enig-
ma in this country.
