rt ft n t i X A Pacific Coast Trip It may be of interest to McCook frlonds and neleWiors to hear of some of a few beatnLul places between their homes and the Pacific coast And what some of their old friends are doing along that coast Leaving Denver May 29th Mr and Mrs Wal ter Stokes of McCook and Mr and Mrs F W IJosworth of Denver start ed on a trip to visit old time friend3 nud see the sights of the ever growing cities and show places of the west Over the D R G It It through Colorado Springs and Pueblo Colo rado Springs a city made up largely coaching parties are the style a city of beautiful homes Pueblo the great smelter city Here is located the rolling mills of the Colorado Fuel Iron Co On through the Royal Gorge of the Ar kansas river the train runs close by the foaming waters almost shut in darkness by the towering cliffs on either side Past Leadville over Ten nessee pass in sightof the Mount of the Holy Cross down the beautiful Eagle river canyon 7hcre gold mines Torite wife And

a bee hive the emblem of industry Through the Eagle gate formerly the gate way to Brigham Youngs private grounds The homes of three of Brigham Youngs sons still occupy a part of these grounds In a small private cemetery near by lie the bodies of Brigham Young two wives and three children From here we arrived at Temple square in time for the organ recital which takes place every day at noon in the taber nacle The Morman tabernacle at Salt Lake City is a building with a large oval roof and having a seating capacity of about 8000 people This large building was constructed with out nails or metal of any kind The accoustic properties of the tabernacle are very remarkable The second largest organ in the United States is installed here Temple Square also contains the Morman temple which was

Pacific we crossed Great Salt Lake on the train about two hours ride in crossing The wind was high and the water carrying 25 salt dashed at times against the train making it J look like a ship at sea Every thing this water touches turns white when dry as five pails of water evaporated will leave one pail of salt while the water of the Pacific ocean contains only one half of 1 salt and of the Atlantic ocean 1Vj salt This is one reason why vegetation grows more luxuriant on the Pacific than on the Atlantic coast The Japan cur rent and trade winds temper the cli mate of the west coast of the

SUPREME COURTS LOSS Death of Justice Fuller Leaves tho Ucnch In Crippled Condition Death and ilinis lime created ninny chunxivs in i lie United States supreme court lit rnroly ha the bench been left

Brewer while Jus tice Moody is critically ill and under a special act of congress may retire with full pay within five months As things now stand in the supreme court should the six associate justices remaining actively on duty decide - MELVILLE W FULtiEB pending cases except those in regard to which a fair degree of unanimity exists there is a likelihood of the de cisions being reached by a vote of four to three which though standing as a majority of the justices is not a major ity of the full court Chief Justice Fuller was born in Au gusta Me Feb 11 1S33 and was graduated from Bowdoin college in 1Soi lie attended lectures at the Har vard Law school and received degrees of LL D from the Northwestern uni versity Bowdoin college Harvard uni versity Yale college and Dartmouth college Fish to Exterminate Mosquitoes If the advice of some of our most noted scientists is followed gold and other fish will be used to exterminate the mosquito post in New England It is said that the fa vorite food of the goldfish is the mosquito and its larvae but some of the breeding places of the insect can not be reached by the larger fish and smaller species are to be introduced It is claimed but not scientifically that the mosquitoes not devoured may be scared to death by the terrifying names of the fish for among the latter selected to do the work of extermina tion are the cyprinodonts the Fundu lus magals Zygonestes nottii and the Zygonestes olivaceus If these dont do the work they can trot out the Heterandria formosa and the Gainbu sia holbrokii which are said to be capable of putting on the finishing touches A NOVEL VEHICLE Tho Wind Wagon and Its Races With the Aeroplane Among the most interesting and ex citing features of the big aviation meets being held in various states this summer are the races between aero planes and a novel automobile that of course makes its journey on terra firina This vehicle is called a wind wagon and is driven over the ground by a rear screw propeller operating against the air The wind wagon is the invention of Professor Pickering of Harvard Ss iK JSi THE WIND WAGON ON THE JOB versity and Dr Julian P Thomas of New York who have given onip won derful demonstrations with it durim the past year The machine is capable of attaining great speed although in a race with a biplane once around the motor track at the recent Indianapolis meet the airship won by twenty five yards The time was 4 minutes rS sec onds Arrangements are now being made for races between these novel vehicles at the coming international aviation congress next fall They will also be used in contests with aeroplanes This international meet by the way prom ises to be the greatest of the kind the world hai pver seen Business Office Station ery is
