"I was sitting all by myself cno winter
Evening atone In the house away up there
In Todd county , many ycara ago , when ws
were the only white family In the entlro
county. I was holding my llttlo babe In my
arms and hoping my husband would soon
got back from towti. All at once a. great
moccasin appeared' ' before my eyes ; a big ,
oiled moccasin enclosing a big Indian foot.
I looked up and saw a tall , wild Indian In
front of me. Ho had poked his foot In my
face by way of suggesting that the foot WRS
frozen and that he'd like mo to attend to
It. "
Mrs. Charlotte O. Van Cleve of Minne
apolis began thus at the First Presbyterian
church , says the St. Paul Pioneer Press , a
reminiscence of her early llto tn Minnesota.
She had addrcEsed the synollcal superln-
ously in her capacity as synodical superin
tendent of foreign missions , nnd had touchIngly -
Ingly urged them to lend their assistance
toward missionary effort. Almost 80 years
of age , she eccmed scarcely moro than three
ficore. Her handsome , amiable face was full
and fresh , her persuasive voice rich nod
ntrong. Only her silvered curls corroborated
In any measure her mention of the year when
* > ho wns born 1819. In that year Fort
Snelllng was built. Her father was an officer
of the garrison , and she was born whllo the
Fifth regiment , U. S. A. , wo/3 on Its way to
occupy the new post.
Mrs. Van Clevo's mother and Mrs. Snell-
Ing. wife of the commandant , were Episco
palians and the only "professing Christians"
nt the fort. So when a Sunday school class
had been formed , the better to occupy the
children during the long Sundays of thai
isolated life , It was not surprising that the
ofllccis attended as well as. the children. II
was scarcely less surprising that Captalr
Hunter , afterward General Hunter during
the rebellion , looked very sad one Sunday as
ho was walking to his Quarters after the
school had been dismissed.
"What's the matter , captain ? " asked th (
elder Mrs. Van Clove.
"Why , I can't got over It , you know. The
teacher In the l/.blo class told us that Mose ;
la dead ! "
"Yes , " eald the speaker last night , "wi
were all very fond of Moses In those long-
past days , when the school met In the base
ment of the old barracks , still standing a
the fort. Wo loved all the ancient Jewlsl
loaders and soldiers , and sometimes , evei
now , I can't bear to think that Moses 1 :
dead.
STRANGE VISIT.
"Out there In Todd county after my fatho
left the army wo had experiences that mlgh
make us feel timid at the present day. Why
once I wns left alone , Sir. Van Cleve hav
Ing gone to town thirty miles away. M ;
little child and I kept each other compan ;

THOENIX , Ariz. , March 15. ( Special. )
Tbo 20th of this month Is the date of ex
piration of the tlmo limit set by the legis
lature for beginning construction on all tax-
exempted railroads within Arizona. Twenty-
nlno notices of Intention were filed with the
territorial secretary. Of these twenty-nine
probably elx will comply with the Dnol re
quirement of the act and will have ground
broken this montti. All lines that so comply
and that shall thereafter build at the rate
of twenty-five miles per annum will be
given tax exemption for fifteen years.
Three of the projected roads are already
under construction , work having started
, within Uio month. Ono Is the Santa Fo
Grand Canyon line. It will reach the rim
of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado at a
| point sixty-five mllea north of Williams , a
atatlcn on the Santa Fe Pacific. At Williams
the junction grounds are being prepared and
as well a site for a largo smelter , to which
wilt bo brought the rich copper ores of the
Grand Canyon district. About five miles of
the road has been eroded , a largo force being
kept at work with the expectation of com
pleting the road for the tourist travel of the
summer time. Lombard , Geode & Co. ol
Chicago are the financial managers of the
enterprise.
At Granite Dells , six miles north of Pros-
colt , Is a second railway construction camp
where Langdon , Llntcn & Co. , Minneapolis
ontractors , are starting work on a branch
f the Santa Fo , Prescott & Phoenix rail-
ay , tlfat Is ] to tap tfio rich mining district !

f the richest and best known gold , silver
nd copper mines of Arizona are on the line
[ the survey. The contractors have a time
mlt of six months. Over 300 men are now
mploycd.
The assent of the Apache Indians has
wept away the last obstacle to the con-
tructlon from Geronlmo to Globe of the
Glla Valley , Glebe & Northern railway ,
'or consent > to pass across the reservation
ho Indians have been guaranteed frco'trano-
jortotlon for thirty years , as well as a trlbai
onus of fS.OOO and damages for all occupied
and taken by the railroad right of way
The road has already been built n distance
if seventy miles , from powle station on the
iouthern Pacllc ( , to Geronlmo , and lias the
ailio distance to construct before Glebe la
cached. The ownership of the line Is thua
ar vested In William Garland of Los
\ngclca , who Is understood . to represent
Southern Pacific principals. Material for 4hc
extension Is being gathered atGeronlmo , the
rolla being medium weight steel now beliiR
ttken off the main line of th'o Southeri
'aolflc ' to be replaced with heavier metal.
President E. J. Beard of the Arizona
? aslflc states that ho will save his cxemp
tlon privilege by beginning work before the
20th. The Arizona Pacific Is a Santa Fe
cntcrprlso and Is to bo built west on the line
adopted by the Santa Fe when that trunl

The dematj ] of the traveling public for
luxuriant means of transportation has pro
voked a more than spirited rivalry nmoug
competing railway lined. Now that It has
bcco determined to charge excess faro on
the new fast trains between Chicago , Omaha
mid Dcnvcc , ell the westeia lines have under
consideration plans for substituting entirely
new and most elaborate equipment for that
at present In use on the trains now running.
On all four of the Omaha-Chicago Hues
new equipment will bo placed In service
within the next three months. The new
trains recently put on by the Burlington
and the Northwestern-Union Pacific ore
earning more revenue than was expected for
the first two months. ' The castbound trains
arc dolns especially well , and the fear en.-
tertalned at first that the trains might betaken
taken off because they would not pay has
been absolutely banished In passenger cir
cles. Doth the passenger end the mall earn
ings of the new trains are said by passenger
officials to be entirely satisfactory. On Sun
day night otw of the trains had every berth
except two uppers taken. A sleeping car
Is considered to be paylnc ery well when
all tie | lower berths arc taken.
The Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul rall
way , ls having built for service between
Omaha and Chicago as haneVomo a train us
over yaa turned put. The decision to put
on a new train between these two cities was
resided by the Milwaukee officials about four ,
months ago , and the orders were soon given
for the building of the llnc.it train of. six
cars that the Pullman company could , con
struct. It had been hoped to place this train
In nervlce on March 1 , but the work of buildIng -
Ing as elaborate a train as was desired was
found to be a greater task tfacn had been
counted on. As a result -tho train will not
bo put on until April 1. It will bo a six-car
' .rain out of Omaha. The keepers will bo
uxurlant and ornate ; a composite car will
ontaln a handocine library , a buffet and
arber shop and bath , and the coachcvs will
o of Ilia latest pattern. All the cars will
be painted the same color , and the train
will be lighted throughout with electricity.
General Wcatern Agcat Fred A. Xash of the
Milwaukee says that the new train will ex-
el In grandeur and beauty even the now
Imlted trains of the bake Shore and the
Pennsylvania roads o\it of Chicago.
