PUTTING RAILWAYS
A30VE THE FLOODS
(By Leon Barrltt.)
AS THE constellation Scorpio moves
up along the southeastern sky
these July nights its striking:
string of stars, the most conspicuous
in that part of the heavens, has an
added Interest because of the planet
Jupiter within its borders. There can
be no mistaking, his Jovian majesty,
the largest planet in our salar system,
measuring 85.00 miles in diameter. Be
low some eight or ten moon disks and
a lltue to the west, is the first magni
that he excites the liveliest interest
even from those who give the heavens
but passing consideration.
No wonder then that Galileo, in 1610,
should have made Jupiter one of the
first objects in the heavens for in
vestigation with his newly invented
telescope, which revealed to his de
light and to the astonishment of the
scientific world, that it had four satel
lites revolving about it These satel
lites are a never ending source of in

Nevr Satellites.
Through the development of the tele
scope and dry plate photography, four
other small satellites have been added
to this group. The first of these, the
'Fifth." was discovered by Prof. E E.
Barnard in 1892. It is the Innermost
being 112.000 miles distaftt from Jupi
ter, and is J0O miles in diameter. Its
penoo. is iz nours. Ios. VI and VII
were discovered, by Perrine, of the Lick
Observatory, in 1904-5. Periods 251 and
260 days r .ipectively.
By means of photography in Febru
ary. 1908. Prof. P. J. Melotte. of the
Greenwich Observatory, discovered the
eighth satellite. The writer has an in
teresting copy of this photograph, and
though enlarged three diameters, the
object appears as a mere needle point
scarcely distinguishable to 'the naked
eye. It is of the 17th magnitude and
is estimated to be not more than 35
miles in diameter. It has a very re
1 rkable orbit , much more distant
irom ics primary tnan any other known
satellite, very eccentric and hlnhlv in
clined, and with a retrograde motion,
or in the opposite direction to that of
all the other satellites of Jupiter they
moving eastward and this little fellow
westward. Its nearest distance from
Jupiter Is 10,000.000 miles ana its great
est distance 20,000.000 mites, and Its
period of revolution is S30 days.
It was for some time doubtful when
first discovered whether it was a satel
lite or a minor planet and its true na
ture was only determined after three
months of careful, observation. The
object Is so faint that It required an
exposure of so minutes to nmnr. it-
on the plate.
Jupiter In Clondllke State.
Jupiter appears to be in a cloud like
state and shines by reflected light
what it Is composed of is not known,
as It simply reflects the sun's ,-,.- -,
the spectroscope is therefore unable to
enlighten us upon the subject Dusky
belts mark the equatorial region, but
their cause is unknown. In 1878 a
great red spot appeared south of its
equator, but it is not now visible.
Jupiter's mean distance fm tvi
earth is 390,000,000 miles and its aver
age dis'-nce from the sun is 483,000.
000 miles It is flattened at th nrl
and bulges at the equator, caused pre-
is 90,000 miles, a difference of 5438
miles.
Jupiter was in opposition on June
1st that is on the opposite side of the
earth to the sun. at which times it is
seen to the best advantage, being near
est to the earth. These periods of oppo
sition recur every 399 days the sun,
the earth and Jupiter belnc in a direct
line, the planet rising about sunset and
remaining in view all night

The Planets for July.
Mercury will be an evening star for
a few days before and after July 24.
It will be found in the constellation
Leo near the first magnitude star Reg
ulus and will set about an hour and a
half after the sun and a few degrees
south of the point on the horizon at
which the sun disappeared.
Venps will be too near the sun to be
seen during July, passing the sun on
the side opposite to the earth on July
o superior conjunction it is termed.
Mars Is receding from the earth and
now is only aDout as bright as a sec
ond magnitude star. It will be found
in "the Sickle" of the constellation Leo.
It sets shortly after the sun during
July.
Jupiter Is moving grandly into view
and .will be finelv placed for observa
tion1 n the southeastern ski during the
month. It will be the most conspicu
ous object in the heavens and will be
found directly over north of Antares
in the constellation Scorpio. It has a
retrograde movement of one degree
this month.
baturn is now visible as a morninc
I star near the Pleiades.
Uranus is coming into view in the
ea3t about 9 p. m. on the 1st and will
he found in the constellation Caprl
cornus. It will be in opposition with
the sun on, July 24.
Neptune "will be in conjunction with
the sun on July 16. and will be too
near the sun during this month to be
visible.
Santa Fe and G. H. & S. A.
Raising Grades Along
the River.
Extensive improvements os the local
division of the A. T. & S. F. railway will
besrin within a week. Road troubles from
hish water will be a thine of the past,
officials say. after the completion of the
work. .
It is decided to rafee a large portion
of the Santa Ve rishtofway between
Courchasne. just above El Paso, and the
2sew Mexico state line. This section of
the El Paso division has suffered most
from the flood waters incident to spring
rains. The road bed wil be raised at
the lowest points, and leveled in such a
manner as to prevent any ordinary floods
from damaging the stability of the
tracks.
This improvement is in accordance
wiah what is being done on other local
railway. The G. H. & S. A. railway,
which suffered heavily recently from,
floods of 4&e Kio Grande near Fakens,
Texas, is alsv. beinc improved along the
rightofway bv ifjkes between the tracks
and the river, 'ifee heavy rains came

If The Price of Coffee
Would Double Again
All The Better!
The price of coffee has doubled in three or four years.
And this, despite production has doubled in that time.
And this, despite production has doubled In that time.
The reason fbr the present high price of cdffee was sought and it
has been found that the market sapply has been artificially restricted.
The Brazilian government Is In the operation and participates
in the profits to the extent of an export duty of three cents a pounJ.
And American bankers axe financing the scheme.
Diabolical plot?
Outrageous conspiracy?
But we "did not take our pen in hand to condemn anybody con
cerned except COFFEE DRINKERS to condemn tnem and. also, to con
gratulate them, both upon the present Increased price and the proba
bility that it will go higher. ,
It isn't exactly inspiring to see American capital finding its way to a
foreign country to be used there to the end of exploiting American
However! this fs not the saddest fact Involved, to our way of think-
It is most regrettable that the consumption of coffee in this country
has increased to a point to warrant manipulation of thesupplr-
We don't ike to look upon coffee as becoming a NECESSITY to the
American people, and view with alarm the activities of capital suggesting
that it IS becoming a necessity.
Coffee isn't good for you.
Too much of it is positively harmful.
If the present price, doubled in four years, would dQUble again, it
would be the best thing that ever happened to the excessive coffee
drinker. ,.
He wouldn't drink as much of it
Better yet maybe he wouldn't drink It at all
Just possibly you have us put down as being a. bit nervy In this
coming in and sitting down beside you. before the coffee pot and tell
ing you to keep hands off.
Nevertheless, we mean well
We are talking for your good.
You like coffee, probably, and perhaps- yon think It is none o our
business if you drink it or if you drink all you want of it
Babies want those pink pills that look like candy and cry if we
-3pn't let them have them.
The same pink pills, left around by careless mothers; have killed
many babies.
And many grown people know as little as babies about the care of
their bodies.
There are intemperate coffee drinkers the same as there axe in
temperate drinkers of alcoholic beverages.
One cup of coffee isn't going to prove fatal, nor two cups of coffee.
Two cups may upset your entire system, make you uneasy, restless
and peevish and unfit you for best results for a day. but it will wear off
after awhile the same as a whisky drunk wears off.
But bring to us a person who drinks two and three cups of coffee
regularly for breakfast or a person who drinks coffee three times a. day,
and we will show you a person with a bad-acting heart a sluggish liver,
a disordered stomach and a shattered nervous system.
If you don't believe us, ask yaur doctor-
He will tell you that coffee contains caffeine, which he gives In the
smallest kind of doses for a heart stimulant
He will tell you further that too much caffeine or too much
coffee will give you a palpitating heart
Then if you are satisfied to run the risk of having that kind of &
heart keep right on drinking aU the coffee you want and excuse its
for Interfering.
