Mechanism on Indiana
Road Saves Much

At the rate Of three and a half miles
DAY a mos peculiar machine is now en-
gagged in laying the tracks Of the Cincin-
nst. Richmond and AIuncie Railroad.
This piece Of mechanism is the invention
OF a man named Hurley. who has spent all
Of the pas. ten years in perfecting it, be-
sides expending thousands upon thousands
OF dollars on models. and so forth, before
success crowned his efforts. The machine
weighs about fifty tons. and was made in
Scranton. Pa. 1t is the only one Of its
kind in existence.
This track-laying machine automatically
and accurately lifts the ties and rails into
position, the most drudging labor in all
rallroad construction. 1t also furnishes
the motive power for it's own construction
tram
There were stretches Of roadbed over
which me construction train moved at
rate Of $50 feet an hour. The machine
utilized was enc which differs in many
essentials from, that which has been used
west CT the Mississippi River. One of
the most interesting features is the man
ner IN which the material Is delivered TO
the roadbed and the comparatively few
men required for the different operations,
as the ties and rails are lifted and moved
from the cars on which they are carried
70 the roadbed, being connected and
splhed whilc the train is in motion.
An endless chain carrier puts the ties
IN position. while 2 crane suspended upon
2 steel truss liwers the rails in advance
of the construction train In this manner

MISSION RUINS
To BE RESTORED
W ork Begun by the Cali
fornia Landmarks
League.

The first actual work Of restoration on
the ruins Of San Antonio de Padua be-
gan on Monday last by the California
Landmarks League. when the descend
ants Of the old neophytes gathered in
the sanctuary to clear out the fallen
beams and gather the unbroken tiles and
adobes with which to replace the roof
and walls
The old cement-lined noria, or com
munity well. was cleaned out while the
committee was on the ground, and after
twenty-five years Inactivity It gave forth
fine volume OF fce-coId water. This
work on the well has been in contempla-
ton by the neighbOring people for twenty
years, but JOlOn is a ''manana" country
and it remains for the league to place it
once again in commission.
The lumber for the restoration is fur
nished by the Sans lumber mill. situated
on the Santa LUCAS, about twenty miles
from the mission, and its proximity has
reduced the price almost one-half IL Is
an interesting fact that most OF these
giant timbers are being cut and hauled
by descendants of the mission Indians,
who have continued 10 practice the In
dustries taught their ancestors by the
padres in the long ago.
So. too, will the walls be rebuilt large
~ by their hands The work is in charge
of Architect VIII D. Shea, but the i'm
mediate SUPPLEMENTARY is in the hands
of j. AlOnzo Forbes, who for thirty-seven
years has lived within call of the mission
bells and is familiar with every detail Of
the famous old cIoister- Many of the
Spanish residents of the surrounding
country have volunteered to donate a
weeks labor toward the restoration OF
their beloved chapel within whose shad-
CIV many were reared. and this OFFER be-
speaks a patriotism that is good to see.
for the sun shines hot on the San Anto-
Mo Valley and produces an Overpowering
antipathy to labor.
The league has obtained proprietorship
from George DuttOn OF many furnishings
of the mission and numerous articles used
about the ancient workshops These. IN
Guiding a beautiful copper haptismal font,
win be replaced in the clOister when the
restoration is complete.
The league has on hand Sll00. which IL
confidently hopes will be augmented as
the work progresses. The Native Sons
and Native Daughters have manifested
Great interest in the belated work of res
toration. and at it's last Grand Council
the Young Mems Institute announced it's
intention to ASSIST in the patriotic work.

PLAN To RESTORE
DENUDED FORESTS
Governor Of MaSSachu-
sets Would Use Con-
Vict Labor.

Under the general direction of Governor
Bates, plans are in progress for restoring
the forests of Massachusetts by the work
of convict camps. This will be the first
experiment of the kind in the United
States. 1t will probably attract the no
tice Of sociologists all over the world,
says the Boston Advertiser
The work will be done on a large scale.
and practically every section of this State
where forests are needed will eventually
benefit by the policy. AS for the State
there is good reason for saying that the
profits of the undertaking will in time he
big enough to wipe out the present State
debt. Possibly it may make all State
taxes unnecessary.
The State will take lands by the right
OF eminent domain Only land now con-
sidered worthless but good enough 70
plant trees on. will be taken. Outside of
the large cities of Massachusetts, such
land exists almost everywhere The
land long ago refused TO paw taxes IN n
II is, to all practical purposes. publfc
land to-day The back taxes on such land
are enough to wipe out any claim To
ownership that might be set IN There
is other land. almost as worthless on
which small taxes have been maid tbe
land being assessed at only q nominal
price This land also, If taken by erni-
nent domain. could be bought for little
more than the expense Of condemnation
In almost every case, this land was
once the site of a forest, but the wood
has been cut off. As it is good for moth
ing else but woodland. the owners will he
glad to get anything for II. The talxinps
by the State, therefore, will amount in an
to good many thousand acres, probably
The total cannot yet be stated. because
even the State officials have not vet de-
cided upon that total
When the land is taken the work Of
carrying out the reforestation of the
state will be carried out by Chairman
Pettigrove, the head Of the State Denarf-
ment Of Prisons.
1t is calculated that if the right kind IF
trees can be made to grow. on the in
vestment of a small sum, the State in "a
years will get something like $40 600 O0O
from the sale of the standing timber and
that thereafter the income of the state
will amount to millions of dollars every
year.-New York Commercial
