At present the trend of railway oaralnqs la receiving more thaa ordinary attention, and aa the end of the 11 seal year approaches it seem that the transportation interest will l,e pushed to finish tha twelve months with an increase la net receipts. Of course propitious conditions la May and June and retrenchment in expenses would prove helpful in permitting some of the ground loat during tha first three months of the calendar year to be partly regained. As mat-ter- s now stand, the gain in gross receipts for the nine months ended with March is somewhat over 6 per cent., nays Bradstreets, while the Increase In net Ja about 2.6 per rent. Iranl tally art of the Increment noted was cored in the comparatively active last half of 1MI3. when the symptoms of industrial and commercial lassitude, though Just becoming visible, were nut sufficiently defined to causa prompt contraction la railway revenues ; so that it practically remained for the first four months of the current calendar year to furnish tbs moat adverse reports. Analyses of tbe returns disclose a number of unfavorable influences. Thus, while there Is no denying that the quietness In trade has become marked, h Is, nevertheless, not. well to entirely attribute the backward asnimes fo tfjat iijnrt inttiiri, In 4 deed, a variety of other factors apparently combined to retard tho growth ot railway revenue. For instance, tha singularly had weather cunditkraa uot of only diminished tbe movement traffic, but Induced extraordinary increases in operating expenses, and, moreover, the movement of cotton In tbe south was below that of tha first quarter of 1903, while wastsrn grain shipment foil below those of lent year, la addition, labor disturbances and higher wages played a not unimportant part in making for smaller railway earning. Furthermore, oompnc-Isoare sow being made with a period of abnormal activity one year ago. In truth, it may bo said that it ia not surprising to find decreases occurring, but it ia significant that they are nut more marked in view of nil tho circumstances. n IDAHO AT THE WORLD'S FAIR. Idaho la getting herself talked about at. tba world's fair. No atst makes a more Intoreatlng display of products In agriculture, horticulture and mining than does the Gem State of the Mountains. The state legislature appropriated but $20,00f for the display, but the comdollar missioners have made every count.

It la a silver nugget, that weighs more than five tons, has 200 otinctyt of silver In It, anl 60 per rent la lend. There is another nugget In the same pyramid that weighs four tons. These nuggets come from Waller. Idaho. The Halley miqea furnish even s richer nugget. It weighs 2,000 pounds, cuntaius.340 ounces of silver, and la 70 per rent lead. There are shown 670 samples of copper, and some specimens show as much as 40 per rent pure copper. The .gold nuggets are peculiarly attractive. These are chunks of pure gold Just as they come from the placer . mines. The beautiful gem from Idaho have been admired by all worlds fair visitors who have seen them. There Is tha opal, garnet, crystal, topax. amethyst and turquoise. They are displayed In all condition and show that tha artistic waa not forgotten when nature formed tha great northwestern state.

At the foot of the main stairs heard a sound of somebody moaning or groaning. I want upstairs to see what I could do, and in ths doorway of a big room opening off the upper hall I saw banging a man; his body outlined against a dim light burning inside the mom beyond him. Suicide, I thought, of emirs: and he'd changed hia mind after hanging himself up; and I looked fur the roM I expected to aee running from around hia neck up to tbe crosspiece of the door frame under the transom to rut It. But there in place of the rope, appeared what seemed to be a stick of wood, that reached down from the transom to the top of the man's head and bad at It lower end a ruriouv sort of a wire rags, something like the cages they have around gas Jets behind the scenes in theaters, in which this man's head was completely Inclosed.

And then I set almut getting him out of his own trap, sat for me nr anybody else In my business that might have come along, and which would have strangled him In twenty minutes more, sure, if I had not happened to drop In. Tbe cage around his head I found to'b In two halves, these attached to two wooden arms coming down from the door frame overhead. Tho contrivance worked murh like an ordinary steel trap, except that It caught your head Instead of your feet. Tho two arms, with the two halves of the wire csgs at their ends, were held apart when ihe trap was set, and a stout spring held them together when the'trap was sprung, and it was sprung by stepping on n piste set In the floor in the doorway and connected wllji tha arms above. Well, he felt easier, as I told you, when I got. those books under his feet, and then when 1 had slsed up the trap I gently, but firmly inserted my Jimmy between the two wooden arms that hed tha cage together and pried them apart, blocking them, as I got them open, with more books, until I had got the rage wide enough open so I hat the man could get Ills bead nut. and so at last I freed him; and very glad he waa to be fra.
