PERILS or ASIATIC TELEGRlPH
From The ST. Louis Globe Democrat.

From The st. Louis Globe Democrat
When the Gilgit-Srnagar section of the Brit
ish telegraph line to India was run there were
prophecies that the dangers of maintenance
would be so great to dissuade operators from
undertaking them. There has. as Il matter OF
fact. been no difficulty in filling up the entire
staff but that the perils Of the service were
not oVer-estmated is seen in an incident told by
a telegraph master as happening between two
Offices called Minimarg and Aston near the
dreaded Burzil Pass The BurZil, l31D feet,
and the Rajdiangan, 81" feet are TWO most
difficult passes, most dangerous to cross in win
ter. I'm the Burz in severe weather the snow
will lie To depth of twenty feet.
The chief causes Of damage to the line are
breakdown MS from the accumulation of snow on
the wire and aValancheS. The first is guarded
against, far as possible. by planting posts
close together and using steel wire in the most
exposed places. But nothing can withstand an
avalanche If it comes down across the line Of
route. Shelter huts are built at short intervals
for the use of repairing parties. When once the
winter sets in the stations are cut off from the
outer world except by wire. Two white men,
with a suitable staff of native linemen and
subordinates. are stationed at each office and
made as comfortable as circumstances will per-
nit. They are fully ratoned and equipped with
suitable clothing and furnished with snowshoes
Rifles and ammunition for sporting purposes are
provided, well as books and games to enable
the men TO pass the mOnOtOnOus hours OF the
dreary winter months
The telegraph men have no duties To perform
except To cut in on the wire at certain hours and
satisfy themselves that the line is working and
messages are passing between Gilgit and Srin-
agar. Directly there is an interruption. repair
party sets out. with provisions and bedding. In
January last there was a fault near the Mini
marg office. and a party of nine khaassis
0abOrcrs). one lncman and the telegraph mas
ter Left the office at { a. and reached the
break about two miles out. at ! p. m. While
the men We're repairing the line the telegraph
master heard the noise of coming avalanche
far above them. but he could not its direc-
tion as the snow falling heavily. Finding
escape impossible. he turned his head away
and quietly awaited the result. He remembers
after the avalanche struck him. being carried
along at a swift pace downward. sometimes
nearly suffocated. when he was at the bottom

THE PORk-FED PHILOSOPHE



No man who lives on meat ever known to
lick his wife or ask for a divorce. Adam got into
a row, right off, because he had no hog meat
butter or black bass. Napoleon lost Waterloo
because the allied forces had bacon for break
fast the morning of the fight The French had
vegetable soup The South had to give in at
AppOmattOX because it out of meat No
war be successfully waged without hog
meat.
Americans are the most risky people on earth
because they eat the most hog meat
Ingalls, would have gone back to the Senate
had he not lived on oatmeal, baked apples and
blind robins.
A vegetable diet woman is as cold and clammy
and unoVable as a turnip If you wish to put
in the checks of your girls vitality in their
every motion and brains in their heads feed
them meat.
If you want your boy to get job and hold it,
so to the front and amount to sonnet hing give
him bacon grease ham fat or talow three times

The world is full Of cranks who are always

avalanche reached the Burzil stream. dis

stopped.
His body was entirely buried. but his right
hand and wrist were free. and in hopes OF at
tracing attention should anybody have escaped.
he began shaking his hand. He almost ex-
hausted his head being two feet under hard
snow, and every muscle in his body tightly en-
gripped. His senses were leaving him, when he
felt some one take hold OF his hand and soon
his lneman dug him out He was badly daZed.
and the lineman left him to dig out two khalas
sis one Of whom completely buried except
the crown OF his head. while the other. who was
found to be unconscious, had foot visible. Two
men who were thrown to the surface were run
ming about. crying and wrinGing their hands.
Another Of the laborers was discovered buried
head foremost. with foot showing. but life
was extinct. Four others were buried In the
avalanche beyond recovery. and there was abso-
lutely nothing found of the equipment the party
had taken out with them. The prompt and
plucky action OF the lineman, SarfareZ Khan.
