'rhs Atlantic 9 Pacific Extension.

There has been fearful amount Of
printers ink wasted Of late, in fact for
three years, about the extension of the
Atlantic & Pacific Railroad from the
Needles through the Cajon pass to San
Diego. Every week Boston paper has
an announcement in it, and the San
Bernardiao and San Diego newspapers
have referred to the nonsense. This ex-
ercise has become nauseating to the pub
lie. The people Of San Bernardino have
paid $40. 900 for four miles Of useless
road, with a depot made of a freight car,
and the promise of railroad through
the Cajon pass to tho Needles. The
pleasures of hope are brilliant, but they
never buy becfsteak. 1t costs something
to build railroad over deserts and
mountains, aud capitalists who are get
ting good interest on their present in
vestment want to know where their il !.
terest money is coming from before they
spend SIS, 900. 900 in making railroad
from the Needles to San Diego.
The fallacy Of such au undertaking is
well illustrated by the new effort to
bridge the Colorado at the Needles. A
gentleman who resides at the Needles. is
now in the city, and informed reporter
of the HERALD that the bridge of the
Atlantic & Pacific Railroad over the
Colorado was so slight structure. that
it was likely to be swept away by tie
annual June rise Of that river, but that
the company had no money to spend in
making better bridge, and the South
ern Pacific Railroad Company with de-
sire to keep the overland freight and
passenger business from being broken by
the washing away of the Atlantic & Pa
c;fic Railroad bridge volunteered to build
an iron bridge for that company and take
pay in Atlantic & Pacific bonds.
The work is now going forward with
all possible dispatch, TO get it completed
before the great summer freshet, that will
come down from the melting SHOWS of
Nevada, Utah, Idaho and Wyoming. 1t
is strife between nature and human
science, between sunshine, melting snow,
iron workers. railway trains and the
energy Of bridge-builders. Within the
next sixty days the struggle will be fin
ished and man or the floods will rule the
hour at the Colorado crossing.
1t would appear from this condition of
affsirs that company that hasno money
to build even bridge across the Colo
RADIO has certainly none to cross desert
and mountain chain and rebuild the road
from TemecuIa to San Diego, which is
ruin at the present time and the owners
have no money to reconstruct it. From
all the signs Of the times there will be
no railroad through the Cajon pass for
many years to come.

A Narrow Escape.

Mr.. Joe Maier, one Of the proprietors
Of the Philadelphia brewery, yesterday
went to Pomona, where he purchased
5000 team. and when the evening shades
prevailed, he took passage in a spring
wagon with X. H. Dorsey, Of Spadra,
and L. Alexander. of Pomona. Every
thing was lovely till they attempted to
ford the San Gabaiel river when
one horse sunk in the quicksand
and the two horses, three men
and wagon became comic theatre, with
Joe Maier for interlocutor. The drama
was short but very interesting. 1t was
. mixture of mudwater. horsehesh and
hard work. but brains triumphed, and
Joe and his friends reached the shore in
safety, and arrived in the city about
half-past IL o'clock this morning, wet
but not conquered. II 10 the first time
this crowd ever took water In the face
Of danger.

General McClellan's Ancestral Elm.

Woodstock, Conn.,. has an elm which
was set out on the day Of the battle of
Lexington BY the grandmother Of GEN
eral George B. McC lellan. 1t was under
this tree that the General made recent
speech upon the cClelian ancestry, the
occasion being his visit to Henry e..
Bowen's annual Woodstock LIBERATION.
It was General cClellan' first visit to
the home of his childhood in forty
years.
The tree is very large, some of its
silky green limbs shooting over $50
feet into the air. It is the largest elm
in the State, next to the one that Long
fellow embalmed in poetry at Norwich
Town. Since cClellan's visit one Of
the lower limbs Of the tree have fallen,
owing - the great weight of the leaves
on it. It extended almost directly IN q
horizontal course from the trunk, and
was eighty feet long. 1t joined the
trunk forty feet above the ground, and
it did not break wholly away. It now;
forms ahuge ladder into the forks Of the
tree. #
