Most Invigorating Bath In Great Salt Lake. The late Charles Dudlcv Warner author, editor and traveler while bathing in Great Salt Lake, remarked to a friend that in all his travols he never before saw such a splendid com bination of salt sea bathing, blue sunlit skies, pure mountain air and pretty women and children. The climate of Salt Lake City, while temperate the year around, is particularly delightful sin ummor, with its sunny days and cool nights. One, three und seven-day tours to the mountains can be made from Salt Lake City. Tourist rates are now in effect via. the Denver & Kio Grande ("The Scenic line of the World") and the Rio Grande Western ("The Great Salt Lake Route.")

At Hot Springs both the Bur lington and Northwestern roads were washed out to a considerable distance and no trains were able to reach the city for several days and in fact it will require almost a week to get things in running order. In the meantime pas sengers are conveyed to Hot Springs, a distance of about ten miles, by team. Tho Lincoln Journal says that on the McCook division the road has in the passenger service a number of bal anced compound engines. Those en gines tide as smoothly, almost, as n coach, nnd because of the absence of a jar or jolt, tho enginenien seemed to forget speed limits. Regular passenger trains wore hurried along at a rate of speed not regarded as safe by the offic ials. To check against this, these en gines have been fitted with speed regis ters that show the rate of speed travel ed during the entire trip and the engine men are checked up in this way. n61lnotes.

Sanford, leader of a new sect at Shiloh, Me., that threatens to orcoed In numbers DowIo'b army, tells n. story of a Fresh) terlan minis ter. "This minister," says Mr. Sanford, "was making a tour of Maine, preach ing ench Sunday In a different church. It happened that on one particular Sunday he had no now discourse pro pared. This, however, did not bother him. Would ho not be among strange people? "It chanced, however, that when ho arose In the pulpit he saw a number of last Sunday's congregation seated In the front row. A delegation hnd come to hear him again, Intending, if he pleased them, to offer him tho incumbency of their church. "What was he to do? Ho suspected the cause of the delegation's visit, and he wanted to please them mightily. An Inspiration came to him, and, trownlng down upon his hearers, ho began: "'Dear Friends: 1 have been much pained by a report that has reached me. I preached last Sunday, as you know, In Shiloh church. Vell,I have been reliably Informed that the good people of Shiloh took umbrage at my discourse. They auestloned its ortho doxy. How nm I to reply to them? How am I to defend myself? But one way is open to me. In order to refute this baseless charge from Shiloh I am going to repeat, sentence by sentence, and word Tor word, the sermon I preached thero last Sunday. Give me, I pray you, your attention, and see if you can find in my sermon a single unorthodox thought." Chicago Record-Herald. First Aid for Injured Animals. A West Philadelphia physician Is writing an interesting and valuable little book that ho Intends to cnll "First Aid to Injured Animals." The book deals with the treatment of tho common accidents that happen to dogs, cats and horses. It shows how 50 per cent of.the deaths that occur am ig" domestic animals aro duo to the mistaken treatment that these an imals receive In tho interim bdtween their falling 111 and the veterinary surgeon's arrival. The physician said: "Tako the case of a valuable dog, for Instance. Dogs frequently choke. A bono, a nail or a pleco of tin gets In their throat and thero is great danger of their dying before the sur geon comes. Many of them do die, but thero Is no reason for this. For it is easy, without the slightest dan ger of bolng bitten, to put the hand n the mouth of a dog and to draw out or push down tho obstruction that Is killing him. A bandage a hand kerchief or a towel will do is passed between tho teeth and over tho upper Jaw, and In a similar way another I bandage Is passed botweon the teeth ) and over the under Jaw. One per- j eon holding tho ends of two bandages 1 keeps the dog's mouth wide, open; aj second person can then, with per- ; feet' ease and safety, put his fingers , down tho animal's throat and relievo him. Thero aro n hundred omergen- cies like this one Just as dangerous j and Just as easily treated. In my book it is my purposo to describe all theso I emergencies and thus I hope" to savo many animals' lives." The "Coup de Monserrat." Tho fatal issue of a recent Fronch duel causes discussion of what tho Parisian fencers cnll the "Coup do Monserrat." Tho history of this stroko is romantic.
