are sure that Porto Rico will open up
a market for American ships is tht
our trade with that island is confined

midnight and makes connection with
No. 7, tho Burlington fast mail, which
arrives hero at 2:22 and is taken from
Omaha went by the Union Pacific.
The Lake Shore road contemplates
a change in its time which will bring
tho fast mail train of its road into
Chicago about 8:."() p. m Iu order to
make connections with this train the
Burlington will change their time,
leaving Chicago at WioO and arriving'
at Omaha at 13:00 tho next morning
making tho run in ten hours '1 his
will be a shortening of tha tinio by
some two hours.
This is necessary as the North-Western
is competing for carrying the
mails. Tho return train will leave Om
aha at 2:30 p. rn., arriving at Burling
ton at l:D0 p.m., and at Chicago at 2
a.m. This change will make it neces
sary to change the timo of many of
the trains, but when the new card
eomes out it will s!iow excellent eon

There are in the world several kinds
of animals that have never swallowed
a drop of water in all their lives; these
include the llamas, of Patagonia, and
certain g'azelles ot the lar ease A
paroquet lived 52 years in the London
zoological gardens without drinking a
drop, and some naturalists think that
hares take no liquid except the dew
that sometimes forms on the grass
they eat. A considerable number of
reptiles serpents, lizards and cetain
batrachians live and prosper in places
where there is no water at all.
Finally, there are even in France, in
tho neighborhood of theLozere, herds
of cows and goats which almost never
drink, and which, nevertheless, pro
duce the milk of which the famous
Roquefort cheese is made.
