The Philadelphia Record Is of the
opinion that the Bcrap heap of large in
dustrial companies is a decidedly inter
esting affair and a rather valuable asset.
That of the New York Edison Company
for last year was sold approximately for
fiioo.000. The material included 032,000
pounds of scrap copper, 3o9,000 pounds of
pig iron, 72 000 pounds of mixed metals
and approximately 500 tons of iron. This
does not include the mater'als which
were redeemed for further use.
Washington's new union station, re
cently completed, la the wonder of all
visitors, particularly those who were ac
quainted with the old B. A O. and the
old union station. The publio is now
clamoring for car tracks to the new sta
tion, as it is a walk of about three blocks
to the nearest line. The station itself is
large enough to accommodate traffic lu
the capital for the next 100 years, Bad the
concourse, which is longer than the cap
itol building, will permit visitors to the
inauguration, on March 4th next, to get
in without crowding.
"Umui.k Job" Cannon, who has been
compelled to transact all his business,
public aud private, in one room, has at
last drawn two rooms those formerly
occupied by the committee on Ways and
Means, which has moved to the now of
fice building. For years, the speaker, his
secretary, and the parliamentary clerk of
the House, have been kept to one room.
The result has been that the speaker was
driven to the closet in corridor when he
wanted to have a conference in private.
Inasmuch as he is running for president
now as hard as he can, he has many
tilings that need looking after and the
two rooms will probably be the cause of
adding Impetus to his boom, which, ac
cording to William Brown McKlnley,
who is taking care of it, is not a thing to
be snwifil at.
K. C. Heath's Trip to Mexico.
From a private letter written by K. C.
Heath, cf Los Angeles, Cat., to County
Treasurer Geo. W. Holeman, we are per
mitted to copy the following;
Calmalli, Mexico.
I had intended to write and congratu
late you on your election, but I was down
here in Mexico at the time and did not
hear of It until a month afterwards.
rememoer ti e day very well. I was
down near the Santa Clara Mountains,
about 100 miles from any human being
but my moshier and an American who
went with me, I wished that I could be
there to cast my vote for you, but I was
very glad yon did not need It. My first
trip down iu this country was last No
vember. At 1 bat time I was sent by
colony to look over 600,000 acres of land
that the company owned, of which com
pany, by-tbe-way, I am treasurer. We
left San Diego on Nov. 6th, by boat to
Point Preetla. That is about &"i0 miles
south of San Diego by water and about
150 miles by land. At Point Preetta we
got five mules, includiugour pack mules,
and a moshier (moshier is a servant and
guide that knows the couutry). We took
five days' rations with us, as it would be
five days before we would get to place
where we could get anything to eat, which
would be at Calmalli, a small Mexican
town where there was once- a large min
ing camp, but now only a few Mexicans
aud Yaqut Indiana remain. Calmalli is
about 10 miles from theedgeof the colony
land and about 160 miles from Point Pre
etta. Well, that was my first experience
of the saddle and blanket. The first few
nights the coyotes kept me awake but I
soon got used to them. There are a great
many of them down here but they are
perfectly harmless, although very ven
turesome. I have had them steal a ham
none rrom under my saddle that I was
using for a pillow. They are about the
size oi a good-sized shepherd dog. We
Journeyed on over some of the worst
country that you ever could imagine.
We traveled one whole day over nothing
but rocks piled upon ach other, over
places where you would not think it pos
sible for a cat to go, but the mules are
used to this country aud can go where a
man cannot. We saw pleuty of deer and
mountain sheep, and quail as thick as
black birds. Also saw nlentv of ante
lopes, but they slay near the coast and we
traveled back in the interior, as we could
find more water there. Well, in due
time we arrived at Calmalli and there
stocked up with enough provisions to
last us tho rest of the trip, we thought.
We went over the land of the colony as
best we could. Of course we could not
go far from water, and that along the
coast is from UK) to 150 miles apart.
I must tell you about the salt mines
which run from the Santa Clara Moun
tains along the coast of Nigro Lsgoona or
uiacK Warner i.sgoons, thirty-six mil
long and three or lour miles wide. It Una
all the appearance of ice and is so hard
that the mules feet would make no im
pression in it. One could take a sleigh
ride on it with the thermometer 120 in
the shade. We crossed this to Scauimous
Lagoona. There we saw some of the
largest turtles I am almost ashamed to
tell how lame they were but to he accu
rate some of the shells measured five feet
across. The moshier said that he was
there and camped for six months and
caught and dried over thiee tons of turtle
meat. By the looks of the shells scat
tered around it looks as though he might
have done so. Back about five miles
from here there was water, where we had
been stopping for day or two. The next
place for water was Santa Domingo, which
used to be part of a city but nothing
there now except a few old" shacks and a
well, and 100 miles from where we were,
which we expected to make in about two
days. The third morning nut from this
camp we got up to find all but two of our
mules had run away. We found they
had taken tn the mountains and we knew
it was useless to hunt them. Then we
were 45 miles from Santa Domingo, where
we could get water, and 90 miles from
where we could get anything to eat. I
noticed that morning for the first time
that we were short on provisions, so we
packed what stuff we had on the two re
maining mules and all started to walk,
but we had not gone five miles when the
moshier and my partner played out, so I
packed them on top of the packers and
realized that it was up to me if we ever
got out alive. I walked and ran all day
with the sun beating down on me at the
rate of 120 in the shade, if there had
been any shade. About Bix o'clock I told
them that I would have to rest and eat
something or I could not make it. The
mules were in pretty bad shape too, as
they had been two days without water.
The moshier then told me that we were
within six or seven miles of Santa Do
mingo. I drank some coffee, ate a little
lunch, and then laid down intending tn
rest a little while and then pull on, but I
was so near played out that I went to
sbep and never awakened until day
light, and then pulled on Bgain. My feet
felt as though there were wrinkles in my
socks or something In my boots, but I
did not stop and about six o'clock we got
to the well, and I must say that for once
I was played out. The moshier and my
partner watered the mules and then came
to look after me, as they saw I waa In
pretty bad shape. I could not even get
up, my feet were swollen so tbey could
hardly get my boots off and when they
did they, found the bottoms of my feet
were covered with blisters as big as dol
lars. Well something else had to be
done, as we were then 45 miles from Cal
malli, the nearest place we could get any
thing to eat, so we dispatched the moshier
for more mules and provisions. We had
some corn left for the mules and a little
provisions. I told the moshier to leave
us some of the corn on band for the mule
in case anything happened that he did
not get back when we expected him,
which was some time the next night.
Alter be had gone my partner took stock
ot what we had to eat and found we had
two teacnpfuls of cracker dust that be
shook out of an old gunny sack, a piece
of bacon-rind about as big as your hand,
without any meat on it, and a piece or
cheese the size of a hen's egg, rations for
two hungry men for two days, as we
thought. The lirst day I was not able to
bold my head up, but the second day my
partner made some moccasins for me
out of some sacks and I got around some,
out we were getting pretty hungry as we
had eaten everything up. I tighteued
my belt up another notch and we ex
pected the moshier back that night but
he did not come, ao I went out where he
had fed the mules and picked up the
corn the mules had slobbered out of their
mouths, got about one-half cup, washed
it and we ate that and felt much bettor.
You might ask why we did not kill
something. We were in the open coun
try and miles from even shrubbery and
as we had nothing but revolvers, that was
out of the question. I believe I never
put In such a night as I did that night.
Every time I would drop asleep I would
dream of being in a big room full of good
things to eat and I could not get them.
The wolves seemed to get bolder and I
imagined that they were waiting to pick
my bones. The fifth morning we had
tightened our beltH to the last notch, so
we thought we would try the beach,
which was about live miles away. I
managed to bobble down and there we
found acres and acres of clams. Well,
we did not do a thing to them; did not
wait to cook them but ate them Just as
they were until we got our appetites up
pessed a little. Then we took some with
us back to our camp, which consisted ot
our blankets, and roasted and boiled and
made clam soup and ate to our fill. We
overdid the matter as it made us both
sick and I thought I could eat no more
clams, but the next morning just at aun
up the Mexican came In with mules and
provision. He expected to find us mora.
dead than alive, for he Jumped oil' his
mule aud gave us a drink ot tnuscall.
That was the end of our troubles and we
made our way back tn catch our boat,
which makes a trip to Poitit Preetta twice
a month.
I hope the trip was not iu vain, for
wbeu 1 was down here I got hold of some
mining claims which I expect to got a
little out of. It is very expensive to do
business here; there is not a railroad 011
the Peninsula and everything has to be
Eacked on mules. What people there are
ere are 100 years behind the times. I
know of several families tbst their near
est neighbor is 40 or 50 miles away. Not
much chance for gossip, is there?" There
is not one American family on the Pen
insula, all Greasers and Yaqtil Indians.
The Indians are peaceable, more so than
the Mexicans, but you have tn wear the
bolt of knives and revolvers for effect.
The poor class have a blanket, frying pan
and cup. That is all they possess and
they sleep wherever nignt overtakes
them. They can do that all right, for it
never gets cold and seldom ever rains,
sometimes no rain for four or five years.
I believe it has not rained for two years
now to amount to anything. The people
do not know anything, only as a chance
American prospector comes along and
can peak Spanish. I have not slept lu a
bed for one month, but the hotel where I
am now has cots, but you have to furnish
your own blankets. You would smile to
see hat they call a hotel here. This is
the first one'l have struck in 600 mlies
travel. It is over 100 miles from any
mining camp. I came down here to send
word to the states in a hurry as we only
get mail twice a month al Calmalli. San
la Rosalia is across the bay from Guay
111 us and there is a big French company
that has copper mines here and owns its
own boats wbicb so over to Guaymus
every lour days. I can not talk much
Spanish yet but enough to get along.
Rosalia has, they tell me, some 12,000 in
habitants, hut there are not so many
houses as there are in Tionesta. One
small house will bold 25 or 30 people and
a great many have no bouse at all. Oh,
it ia a wild country, all right. Well I
was not aware I had scribbled so much.
I hope you will get this some Saturday
night and not tackle it until Sunday, so
you will have a whole day for it.
Your brother,

Letter to James Haslet,
Tionesta, Pa.
Dear Sir: Ten years ago, there was
one pure paint and 200 adulterated; there
are now eight pure, 200 adulterated,
about half of the latter short-meuiured
besides.
There is still but one best, and the dif
ference is ten gallons Devoe goes as far as
eleven next-best-fo -in every ten gal
lons. A new word has come-up in paint; it is
strong. Strong paint goes further and
wears longer; wean paint takes more
gallons and wears-out sooner.
The proper cost of a 10-gallon job is f j0.
Paint that takes 11 gallons makes it $"'.
Paint that takes 12 gallons makes it $60.
Paint that takes 13 gallons makes it f5
Paint that takes 20 gallons makes it f 100.
The $50 job wears twice as long as the
$100, These figures are not precise; they
are round. The 10-gallon paint is Deyoe.
Yours truly,
