of timber more than twenty-eight feet

forty feet or more IN length and eighteen
inches square can be run in the hums.
Just this side of ths summit the hume
has a steep incline for about three
fourtbs Of mile. Heavy timber des-
ceDds this incline 50 rapidly AS to dig
tauce the water running tbereiG. The
waller which the descending timber over
takes Is thrown out Of the fame until
along the HAT below the timber rests IN
tho iiums. Were it allowed to remain
there and another timber to soon des-
cend. As experiment has proved, the con-
cussion would splt the tImbers and burst

the fiums at the bottom .. the incline.
which raises the timber aud floats II /
along. When there Is ice on tho sides /
of the tiums the speed OF the descending .
tlnbers IS greatly accelerated and the .
friction Of the timber on the ice causes
sparks or electrical light which at night
present a curious and novel view. The
improved flume will afford greater facili-
ties fox the transmission Of heavy timber
from the summit: to Carson.
