other oaks and the chestnut In the
west the California redwood has been
largely used, but the constantly increas-
ing demand for this wood for fine uses
renders it more and more expensive. In
the last few years large quantities of
ties made from the long-leaved pine
have been imported from Georgia and
the south, but it is too soft to hold
rail without the use of steel tie-plates.
Otherwise it stands the wear and
weathtr fairly we'll and holds a spike
firmly. The yellow pine, however, IS
not tough enough to make it adaptable
for use on the curves and other places
where the traffic is specially severe.
Several years ago certain railroad
INDUCED in the experiment of treating
ties of various woods to a creosoting
process. The experiment was success
full in showing that the life of ties could
be increased, but it is rarely carried out,
on account of the great expense in
volved. The bath must be prepared
carefully and the ties soaked for seve-
raj hours, or even days a fact which
would compel railroads to establish vast
plants of their own or else deal direct
ly with trustworthy firm of tie-paint-
ers. The chances Of fraud are great,
and the slightly advanced price of ties
thus treated would encourage some
dealers to slight the process. However,
If no new material is discovered that is
feasible for use in ties, some such de-
on the part of railroad COM
panies NAV soon take place.
Artificially made ties have thus far

WON BY McEACHREN.
The Canadian Cyclist Won the Twenty.
Five Mile Race from Miller.

The Canadian Cyclist Won the Twenty
Five Mile Race from Miller.
An accident to his pacing machine
which occurred in the nineteenth mile
of the twenty-five mile race with Nc
Eachren, at the Coliseum track last eve
ming, put Champion Miller out of it, and
the former won the event in AZ minutes
ii rs seconds. Although not fast, it
was a good race up to the time the ac-
cident occurred and sufficiently close to
be exciting. Miller took the lead at
the start and held 1t until the withdraw
al of his motor, but at times McEach-
rem came dangerously near to passing
him. Both men followed pace like vet
Grams and there seemed to be no limit to
their endurance. Five miles were rid
den in 9:0S 3-5, ten miles in 1880 2-5,
and fifteen in 27:57 1-5. In the fifteenth
mile McEachren's pace-makers first
tried to take him around Miller, and
for a mile they rode almost neck and
neck, but in the eighteenth Miller drew
away from his opponent and led by
nearly half a lap. The nineteenth mile
was nearly finished when it was seen
that something was wrong with Miller's
motor and on the next lap it left the
track Miller kept on, however, and
showed his powers of endurance by rid
ing the race out alone. He had several
chances to take pace from McEachren,
and In the twenty-second mile the latter
dropped his pace and gave Miller
chance to take it, but the latter did not
accept the favor.
McEachren rode two or three laps
o1o 80, 90. i,~.a
seemingly remarkably fresh and unex-
hausted, and then taking pace again
finished the race behind the machine.
Had not the accident occurred as it did
fl would undoubtedly have been a re-
markable race for the last five miles
As result of the accident to Miller's
motor the five mile motor race was
changed to two miles The machine
had burned fuse out, and did not seem
to get into good running order again.
Kraemer and Thompson won the event
in 1926 2-5.

A LARGE IND JOLLY CROWD EN-
JOYED THE OUTING.
Struck n Severe Thunderstorm Or STRAIT

joyed it Immensely.

The first excursion of the New Haven
Dry Goods Association to Pleasure Beach
yesterday was u great success. There was
u large crowd on board the Andrew W.
Church when she pulled out from Belle
dock at 1880. 1t was crowd III holiday
to its fullest extent And this they man
aged to do despite the fact that when OIL
Stratford light the boat ran into terrific
thunder storm, which frightened some OF
the ladies present. The majority OF the
younger portion, however, seemed to enjoy
the stormy elements and not a few got on
the upper deck and braved the storm In
order 10 better watch the antics OF the

the storm had cleared off, and although the

storm the party made the most use Of the

and as well as doing ample justice to the
famous shore dinners served at this spot.
Ihe athletic events were pulled of under
dlihcultles ut the track, owing to the short
time ut the committees disposal. But
everyone seemed satisfied with the results.
Inc journey, home was under the most fay-
orable weather conditions, the sky being

folks danced wi MIGHT an main" to the
music of the, Second Regiment orchestra
until the dock was reached. When oppo-
site Sayin Rock the party had the pleasure
of witnessing the display of fireworks to
even better advantage than they could
have done had they been on the land. The
boat arrived home at the advertised time,
1880, and the crowd were loud in their
praise of the jolly time they had and voted
the first excursion Of the New Haven Dry
Goods Association as a hummer. Colonel
John q. Healy and his committee were un-
firing In their efforts to see that everyone
enjoyed themselves, and In this they were
very successful. The barge which carried
