ATTRACTS CROWD
AT STATION TuE90AY

A sight that seldom is afforded the
people of Bismarck was noticeable
Tuesday, when a train load of guns,
rifles and one huge cannon OF large
bore paused in the railroad yards. The
cannon was loaded on two fiat cars
and it's length must have been in the
neighborhood of fifty-fve feet. The
carriages and other matter for the
gun were boxed and not in evidence
Many people who have grown up in
this vicinity and who saw the monster
gun for the first time, were given an
idea Of what the soldier boy has to
face in the European trenches. The
ammunition and material was con-
signed to Russia by way of Vladivos.

the day and all agreed that the ram

would meet all requirements for many
years to come, Many timed their visits
so as to be at the station on the arrival
of the Green Mountain flyer at noon

its own, and though the real work OF
making the announcement that some-

electric bell. the knocker is still on
duty. In fact, there has been revival
of interest In antique door Knockers.
Some of the houses of Greece and
Rome had door knockers. but the GUS
tomary way of rousing the inmates at
night was to pound on the door with
the knuckles or with some hard object.
The old churches OF England had door
knockers. and as churches furnished
refuge for many kinds of men, these
Knockers were called sanctuary knock
ers." The knocker came to be used on
nearly all English homes, and it was
introduced into the United States very
early in the period of colonial settle
ment
The modern knocker and the imita-
ton colonial knocker are now considered
with such favor by home builders and
house owners that knockers OF many
patterns are turned out in great numbers

now they are rivers as narrow as the

like those formed by the half-sunken
Andes along western Patagonia near the
Strait of Magellan. This part OF our
territory Is made mp of the lands or
submerged mountains and In places the
waters are a thousand feet deep. In
other places there are great rocks as
steep, as high and as sharp as the WASH

STORY OF THE STATION.
Summary Of steps Taken for New
SI5O,OOO Structure.

The story of obtaining Rurlingtons new
station is one which If told in detail would
cover many pages Of a newspaper There
were so many parties concerned in its
erection that difficulties without number
had to be overcome before all interests
could be brought together and the actual
building Of the station begun. But the re-
suit has been that for which the progress
sive men OF the city worked for years,
Burlington having obtained a station cost
Ing between $4,000 and $500 600. The or
der from the supreme court called for
station costing $4,000. but in rough fig
ures a total expenditure of about sl25, 600
was put into the building alone, the con-
tract to the Swallow company being for
about $4,000. The railroads had other eX-
penditures in moving their tracks and
like work which will swell the total cost.
The old passenger station was built in
1862 by the Vermont Central Railroad COM
pany for the use OF its Buringt on Essex
Junction shuttle" trains only. Some years
later the Vermont Central leased the Rut-
land Burlington railroad and its trains
ran into the station. In 1899 the Rutland
Canadian road was built and the through
trains of that line ran through the sta
tion. The only great change made in
the building since its erection was the
moving OF the waiting rooms from the
west side of the tracks to the east side
where they were placed In the ''lean-to,"
built on that side of the station i'm 1885
THE PRELIMINARY STEPS
There was talk for many years OF the
great need for new station, the old one
being in a particularly unsanitary condi-
ton and having no accommodations for
the longer trains which were used in the
improved system of ralroading The first
movement Of the citizens was started in
1907 by the Commercial club, when the
committee on transportation, with the
late Calvin s. lsham as chairman, pre-

BRIDGE OVER TIE TRACKS.
The bridge leading from the waiting

iron and reinforced concrete and is en-
tirely enclosed with glass walls. The floor
of the bridge Is of domestic red tile. Sep

that vegetation ON Mars moves south
at one season. bearing it's necessary
moisture. and then moves directly north
over the same path, makes inevitable the
conclusion that there is Intelligent direc-
ton behind this.
Mars evidently is an old planet. Its
water is rapidly disappearing; it Is dy-
ing of thirst. Let us think with pity
of the peoplc-perhaps like ourselves
who are trying desperately to conserve
what moisture is left that they may live.
Sad it seems sometimes that We cannot
stretch out a friendly hand of assist
anCe."
Professor Roothroyd expressed the
opinion that the earth some day will
die of thirst" as Mars is dying, being
unable to retain its moisture.
The astronomer also said there is evil
dencc that life exists on the planet We
nus, though ii doubtless is of a lower
grade than Mars, owing to a less ia
vora BILE atmosphere. AS for the stars
the suns that lie infinitely beyond the
solar system of man-no one dares say
that Intelligence equal to ours does not
exist.
Professor Boothroyd showed some
striking drawings Of the moon.
These mountains he exclaimed, "are
10000 feet high, and may be measured
accurately from their shadows These
pictures are probably as true to nature
as some of the drawings that our en-
gneers make of mountains within view. v
The utter insignificance of the earth
compared with the solar systems of the
universe was brought out forcefully by
a comparison of distance. Light car
travel from the earth to the sun in
eight minutes, it was pointed out. where
as 1t takes light hundreds of years &c
move from the earth to some of the stars
1T Is foolish to say what We may
know and what We may not know in the
future" remarked the lecturer. "All
the great men of history who have Ven
tured to say that certain things would
never be accomplished have been con-
tradicted within a short time Infinite
and unknown as the universe is, the
greatest thing in It is the human mind
and the possibilities of the mind are I'M
limited"
