 "The Rock Island will one day have an outlet to the Pacific coast at San Diego. Had not the war come ou it would have had it soon. It is surely coming. The Rock Island needs au- other rail connection with the east
 Building this connecting link of railroad means a great commercial de- yeloDmeut and it is too big and i'm, portanJ not to come about. The war has delayed the matter, sOmeF hatbu- the railroad to Yuma will be an ac- complished fact and tremendous commercial impulse for San Diego.
 'The Rock Island taps fourteen states and is mainly supported by handling products to and from agricu,- turaI territory. It is one of the great arteries of traffic between the MIssis sippi river and the coast. It win be even a greater line with a coast out let which the connecting link with San Diego will give.
 "You know the Rock Island was tha first railroad to cross the Mississippi river. The structure spanning the Mississippi at Rock Island was built originally in 1854"
 In connection with Che foregoing it is currently rumored in California that tbe Southwestern will build to Yuma and Che Sprecldes road win rush its work to EI Cenuo, and then by joint agreement the Southwestern-Ilook Island trains will use the S.

Eighteen Years In Cold Storage.

Eighteen Years In Cold Storage.
It is an axiom of good cooking that
beef should be well hung before being
sent to the chef, but the owners Of
certain hind-quarter which was ex'
hibited at Smithheld market in Lon
don recently have surely gone to rath'
er extreme lengths in this matter, for
they have kept it In cold storage for
Is years. When it was takel "of the
ice," so to speak, and looked at by ex'
perts armed with nothing more
formidable than magnifying glasses,
they unanimously reported that it was
still sweet and sound. and apparently
lacking but little In nutritive quail
ties. A piece was cut of and sent
to the analysts so that they might
ascertain by scientific methods exact
ly what chemical changes. II any, 1t

About Sound Waves,

One Of those scientists s7ho are al
ways developing apparent paradoxes
in thought has come forward with the
statement that sound itself is not ex-
traneous, but exists only because Of
nerve. In other words. II the ears OF
the human race were removed tomor-
row the world would be absolutely
noiseless to humanity The contention
is that the sound waves, travelling at
a rate Of 1000 feet second, create
Invisible ripples in the air just as
pool ripples when a rock is thrown
into It. The greater the force Of these
waves the louder the sound. But there
is 10 noise until these sound waves
strike the sensitive nerves Of the ear.
Thus, reverting to the original PROPOSE
ton. the air waves themselves would
be noiseiess did they not operate IN
conjunction with the human sense OF
hearing.
