IMMENSE
WORK ON SHERMAN HILL MUST
BE SEEN TO BE UN-
DERSTOOD.
A Republican Representative Goes
Over the Work With Engineer
DunIap-The Tunnel and the Dale
Creek Fill Are the Most Interest
ing Features--Other Plans.

, A representative of The Republican
was the guest of Engineer Dunlap yes
terday in an inspection of the i'm
provements on Sherman Hill. A thor
ough observation of the work there
great extent of the improvement and
the enormous character of the under
taking. Perhaps few persons under
stand just what is going on there, for
most of the work is too far away from
the old line to permit its being seen
from the trains.
The party of inspection went up the
Hill on a morning train, took a car
riage at Tie Siding and drove over
the entire new line on the Hill. The
new grade affords a steady climb of
40 feet to the mile from Laramie to
the top of the Hill and it will at the
same time be but one-third of a mile
longer than the old line.
Interesting Features.
There are two features of special in
terest in these improvements. One
is the tunnel and the other is the big
fill across Dale creek. The work on
the tunnel has progressed so far that
a distance of only about 44O @ e re-
mains to be driven before the tunnel
will be through the hill; but after that
has Deer accomplished an enormous
amount of work must be done before
the tunnel will be completed for the
laying of the rails. 1t will then be
twenty-five feet in the clear from floor
to roof. 1t will be timbered thorough
ly and solidly rooted so that it will be
safe from falling rock and earth. The
work is carried on both by day and by
night and as large a force of men as
can be used is employed constantly.
The drills are worked by compressed
air and a pressure of n hundred
pounds is used in them. One large
pipe carries air into the tunnel and
smaller pipes take it off to the drills
at various places. The system is
complete and u%p-to-date and it is
worth looking at.
At Dale Creek.
Phe fill across Dale creek
gives the appearance of a more
.,o,l,,, th;ru AVIAN than tho fnn-
mel. 1t is 500 feet long, lis feet high
and 40 feet in width at the top. There
are AIS, 900 yards of earth in it, but
these figures give a very inadequate
description of the work. To the eye
the fill gives an impression of a NAM
moth undertaking that makes any de-
scription of it seem puny by compari-
son. Three pipes each five feet in di-
ameter will carry the water of Dale
creek through it. These pipes are far
enough above the bed of the creek to
permit a large body of water to be
stored there. A pumping station will
be put in and the water thus collected
will be lifted to the tanks one and a
half miles away for use by the en-
gines and an important watering sta
ton will thus be established. In adj
dition the company will stock the lake
with fish and a pleasure resort will be
created in the creek valley.

indianapolis club women as a
rule are satisfied with the In
diana union Of literary clubs
which has been in existence for
10 years and which is composed of
mixed cubs. They are not pleased
with the interference of a national or
ganization which wishes to bar out
mixed clubs and only take in the
women's clubs. One club member
said:
I'VE feel just as resentful at this
interference of a national body In our
state federation as Indiana would feel
over national interference in state
politics"

Grand jury Has the Cases of Goebcl
Suspects Under Consideration.
Lexington. Ky, March 1.-THE
cases of Secretary of State Powers
and Capt. Davis were again called
yesterday before Police Judge Riley.
Judge George Denny. Jr., for the de-
fense. asked for a rule against Chief
of Police John McDross to show
cause why the prisoners We're not in
court to answer. Judge Riley held that
a. Is Is -.ei neisis.r ". s,r:int~ snas
oners had been in charge of the sheriff
AM, not of the police. neither was the
chief responsible nor did his court
have jurisdiction. He therefore ordered
all records before him taken before
the grand jury for investigation. The
grand jury determined thoroughly to
investigate and may issue summons
for the prisoners themselves.
Ex-Gov. John Young Brown has ac-
cepted the employment as chief coun-
sci for the arrested men for the muir
der of William Goebel. This action
it's promoters say, is taken in order
that no innocent man may be con
victed through the agency of the S100,
600 reward appropriated by the last
legislature.
