Humboldt mountain range In Nevada.
Both Doctor Matthew and Doctor
Kemp said that the object was the
uioat surprising Imitation by nature
of the workmanship of man which had
ever come to their attention, but that
it was absolutely impossible that it
could be a Kenulne fossil because the
evidence was overwhelming that tho
career of human beings on earth was
not over half a million years, where
as the Triasslc rock of which the neat
ly sculptured sole Is made more- an
cient. It would fit nicely a boy of ten op
twelve years. The edges arc as smooth
as If freshly cut. Hut the surprising
part of It Is what seems to be a double
line of stitches, une near the outside
edge of tho solo anil the other about
a third of an Inch Insldo the first. Tho
'leather" Is thicker Inside the inner
welting and appears to be slightly bev
eled so that at the margin, half an
Inch wide, which runs outside, the sole
Is something like an eighth of an Inch
thick.
The symmetry Is maintained per
fectly throughout. The perfect lines
pursued by the welting ami the ap
pearance of hundreds of minute holes
through which the sole was sewed to
the shoe are the things which make
the object such an extraordinary freak

Rural companies throughout the
state operating one or two lines only,
covering the same general territory,
have found it advantageous to organ
ize Into an unincorporated associa
tion wilh bv-laws of sufficient Rcope
to efficiently manage tho financing
and upkeep to the property. If niore
lines Join together in such an or
ganization It is apt to become too
unwieldy for successful operation,
anil ns there is practically no over
head expense involved, there Is no
particular advantage in several lines
going together tn such mi organiza
tion. In the ase of a large company
owning several lines, or one contem
plating consolidation of paralleling

company will best servo their pur

better be carried nut by an organiza
tion whose officers are empowered
to act for the individual owners of
the line in transacting the ordinary
items of business which are neces
