Over the Railroad Track.

The railroad track from Skipanor
to the Ocean house is all graded and
ties laid, ready for the rails; it is a fine
track and grade, and is much praised
by railroad men who have been
over it.
News from headquarters is that q
cars are now on the way from st.
Louis, with railroad iron: pressure of
freight traffic has delayed this iron,
and pressure of demands on the man.
ufacturing capacity of the locomotive
works delayed the shipment of the
engine, but that, also, is now on the
way.
All that the directors are waiting
for now is the iron: whenever that ar.
rives the work of laying it begins.
Grading and clearing on the line
from Condit's goes ahead. Contractor
Parker now has about 200 men at
work.
The surveying parties report favor
able progress, and at no point along
the line of survey is the necessity of a
steep grade indicated.
