NORTHWESTERN TO CONNECT
WITH WESTERN PACIFIC.
Gould Interests Said to Have Bought
Idaho Road, Which Will Be Link
in Transcontinental Chain.
BOISK, Idaho. Aug. 22. ('Special.'
It comes from a source that Is reliable,
based on Information that bears all the
earmarks of being direct, that the
Gould interests have secured control
of what is called the San Francisco,
Idaho & Montana Railway, upon which
work has been started from Caldwell.
It is added that it is the Intention to do
a little work this year for the purpose
of holding all rights and that the road
will be constructed when the Western
Pacific shall have been more nearly
completed.
Some two months ago a railway man
who is g-enerallyaable to give some re
liable information respecting the
movements of two or three .campanles
said that the next railway line to be
constructed into Boise would be the
Northwestern. He added that it would
make a connection here with a line to
U'lnnemucca to a connection with the
Western Pacific, or build such a line
ltsolf. The further statement was
made at that time that an agreement
had beer, reached between the Gould
and the Northwestern interests under
which the Northwestern would make
Its connection with San Francisco over
the Western Pacific. Both were to
Invade the Harrtman territory in this
section and they would co-operate in
every possible manner in the In
vasion. This same person stated the Goulds
would have a line reaching the various
irrigated tracts in the vicinity of Sho
shone Falls and might have an inde
pendent line Into Boise, but the first
road to reach this place would be the
Northwestern making the connection
with the Western Pacific in the man
ner stated.
This story of the sale of the San
Francisco. Idaho & Montana to the
Goulds fits in so well with that
Information that it will arouse much
interest. Everyone can understand
that the Goulds would be likely to
seek a line reaching this Valley and
that they would have much to gain by
affording the Northwestern an outlet
to San Francisco.
CARP IS TOWN'S PET TOY
Children of Sprlngboro Play With
Fish in Fountain.
SPRING FI ELD, Pa.. Aug. 17. The oro-
tection of Ben. a carp that has lived In
the town fountain for 14 years and Is
regarded as the town pet, has become a
municipal problem. Children of Spring
boro look on Ben as a playmate and
would not harm him for the world, but
several times boys visiting here have
taken advantage of Ben's friendliness to
the extent of Injuring him, and once or
twice his life has been in danger. More
over, Ben's fame has spread so far that
several efforts have been made to kidnap
him. The latest attempt of the kind was
by a member of a small circus, who
tried to steal Ben under cover of the
night. Fortunately, the town constable
was not far off and he thwarted the
circus man. , -
Every afternoon the children take Ben
from the mountain and play with him on
the grass around the fountain, which is 16
feet in diameter and is fed by a living
spring of pure water.
When caught in a neighboring stream.
14 years ago, Ben weighed three pounds,
and was presumably about three years
old. Now he tips the scales at 10 pounds,
which Is probably half of what he would
have weighed if he had been living in a
muddy stream or pond all these years.
But while the clear water of the foun
tain, to say nothing of the handling he
receives, has stunted his growth, Ben
Is not only healthy, but is much more
active than carp which lead a normal
existence. At the beginning of the Win
ter earth is thrown into the fountain for
Ben to burrow in, and the lountain is
boarded up so that the mud will not
freeze solid. Ben loses aoout a pound
In weight while hibernating, but quickly
regains that and more in the Spring,
when the water becomes warm and
people again begjn to pamper him.
The long mooted question among scien
tists. "Do fish heari ' has been settled
by Ben. If a person at the edge of the
fountain, out of Ben's sight, whistles
sharply or calls him. by name, the carp
will swim toward" him and come to the
surface.
Ben does not struggle when lifted
gently out of the water and shows no

SCHOOLS TEACH DUELING
Young Parisians Practice With Pis
tols on Men in Armor.
PARIS, Aug. 17. Regular schools for
the instruction of prospective duelists
have been established in the vicinity of
the Champs Elyseea, and the lotions in
clude both fencing and shooting.
In the schools where pistol practice
Is taught the student fires at the living
man. The "target" Is. of course, spe
cially clothed for the occasion like a
deep-sea diver, and his face is protected
by a helmet containing a thick slab of
plate glass. A long-barreled dueling pis
tol Is used, but instead of cartridges
harmless clay pellets are used, and the
jeunesse doree of Paris love nothing
better than to put In an hour or two
firing at patient mannequins who stand
up to be shot In the most literal sense.
Some of the pupils are old men, but
the majority are mere boys and cauow
youths, who take their tuition in a- seri
ous way and cheerfully pay 10 francs an
hour demanded by the instructor. Some
of them. It is only fair to say. are as
tonishingly accurate shots, and after a
rapid exchange will wa t up to the in
structor to have tne adhesive pellets on
their glass visors gravely counted.
There can be little doubt as to the ef
fect of schools of this kind; it is evi
dent that they encourage quarrelsome
ness of a dangerous and deadly nature.
Fortunately there is a bill before the
Chamber of Deputies by which dueling
will be taken entirely out of the cate
gory of "breaches of the peace and
made a criminal offense.
Similar institutions exist In all the
great military cities of Germany and
Italy. Within the past few weeks a
dueling school for both sword and pistol
has been established In Madrid under
smart and fashionable auspices. When
remonstrated with, pupils merely shrug

never have occasion to profit by a course
of lessons, at least the school serves for
sport.
