Morgan County democrat. (Versailles, Mo.) 1900-1906, 1903-11-20

with quiet satisfaction the people OF
Versailles and vicinity hail the advent
Of the ST. Louis. Kansas City extension
Of the great Rock Island System, which
crossed the tracks Of the Missouri
Pacific near North Monroe street about
10 o'clock last Monday morning.
But few of the vast crowds who wit.
missed the rapid work of the big steam
tracklaying apparatus, realized that
with this crossing completed the town
had reached the epoch of a new era,
and our city may now be termed the
new Versailles.
The rapidly with which the con.
struction is being done is marvellous,
indeed. Ties are dumped into position
and the huge crane manipulating the
heavy steel goes ahead like clock work,
making II 3o-foot span in less than a
minutes time. Following this came
the large gang of trackmen, who spiked
the rails and levcled up the tracks,
while later came the bal!asting crew
who are preparing the roadway for
general traffic.
The men who have the work of con.
~t,ruction in hand figured very finely
on the supplies necessary to finish the
tracks from Eldon to Versailles, there
being just sufficient steel to carry the
work through town, stopping about
800 yards beyond Newton street cross
ing. and the work westward viii not
shipped in. Everything in connection
with the finishing up Of the new road
is substantial and now Morgan county
can boast Of "A direct outlet u st. Louis.

as passenger and freight service will
be inaugurated AS soon as the Rock
Island management a get matters
regulated TO that end
j. II. Roberts, inventor of the rapid
| device known as Roberts Tracklaying
! Machine, was here last Saturday look
ing after it's operation, and found the
work going on smoothly. 1t would
require an article Of some length to
explain the machines working. The
track laying is in charge of Micacl
Ouinlan, while b l.. Johnson Of this
city is conductor of the construction
train, with Engineers Collins and
Stearns at the throttle.
Working into Versailles the machine
was laying the big s0-pound rails that
are being used, and the progress made
averaged about three miles a day. 1t
automatically shifts the ties and rails
into position by the use Of troughs on
either side of the cars while h train
is in motion. An endless chain carrier
i, used to shift the ties, while the ran
handles the heavy rails. The machine
weighs fifty tons With this device and
six G5-tOn steam shovels, the most mod
crn facilities are being used for rapid
railroad building. Each line of work
is being pushed forward with its
special crew, and il is expected that by
the first of March the extension will be
into Kansas City.
The crew putting up telegraph poles
are nov near town, While announcer
crew follows called the fencing and
cattle guards gang, which practically
completes the road for traffic.

A child Of Mrs. Geo. Il. Benson, when
getting his usual Saturday night bath,
stepped back against a hot stove which
burned him severely. The child was
in great agony and his mother could
do nothing to pacify him. Remember
ing that she had Il bottle of Chamber
lain's Pain Balm in the house, she
thought she would try it. In less than
half AN hour after applying it the child
was quiet and asleep, and in less than
two weeks was well. Mrs. Benson is a

LATEST MINING NEWS
DEEP CREEK COUNTRY
Butte Parties Organizing a
Company to Operate
Utah Properties.

Butte parties are organizing n company
to develop mines in the Deep Creek coun-
try, in Utah, according to an informant of
the Salt Lake Tribune. The latter does
not care to have his identity known, but
he says
Il have a letter from one of my friends
in Butte advising me that a number OF
operators in that camp are forming pool
of several thousands of dollars to finance
the enterprise. The advertising which the
Salt Lake papers have been giving the
country and word which has reached Butte
concerning the probability of a railroad
reaching out in that direction within the
next few months, has been responsible for
the scheme which | am advised is being
very quietly planned. The letter also
states that the intention is to establish a
central headquarters somewhere in the
section, not yet determined upon, put one
or more of the men in charge for the pur-
pose of directing operations, and keep the
rest of them constantly on the move dur
ing the entire spring and summer.
"ln this way thorough knowledge of
the resources of the country, in a prospec-
tive way, are to be determined. Mines
and prospects where possible, are to be
carefully sampled, and the character and
value of the ores are to be determined at
the head camp of the party. From there
reports will be forwarded to the head
quarters of the syndicate in Butte, and if
it is deemed advisable orders to either
buy, lease or bond ground will be given
Any ground considered to be worth loca-
ting is to be taken care of as the judgment
of the men in the field seems to dictate,
the whole idea being to secure valuable
footholds at most likely points,"

Danger OF Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and grip
Is their resulting in pneumonia. If rca-

will be avoided. Among the tens OF thou
sands who have used this remedy for these
diseases we have yet to learn of a single
case having resulted in pneumonia which
shows conclusively that it is certain pre-

MINING MEN WATCH
Big Producer Owned by
Spokane Man Attract
ing Attention.
SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.


Spokane, March I4.-The Big Producer,
owned by Spokane men and located near
Alamo and an adjoining group to the noted
Orc Fino mine in eastern Oregon. is one
OF the new properties whose development
the mining men are watching with interest
The development work has only been in
progress little over two months, but dur
ing that time a good showing has been
made both IN the amount of work accom-
plished and the discoveries made.
The Big Producer is backed by very
strong company. Some Of its main stock
holders are stockholders in the Alamo
mine and the ones who deserve the credit
for making that mine.
Mr.. William II. Chambers, well-known
mining man of Spokane, has charge Of the
Big Producer. He is working. in two diff
ferent tunnels, or drifts, since they are
both drifting on the lodges for which they
were started. Something over 200 feet
has been run on what is called the Molter
tunnel. The ledge was cut when in $50
feet and since then has been drifted on
for over so feet, showing a good body of
sulphide ore carrying a very satisfactory
quantity Of the yellow metal.
The other tunnel mentioned is in the
Boston claim and is in little over 100
feet This tunnel is on the Boston lead
which is parallel vein to the Molter Boy.
Mr.. Chambers says that work has been
greatly handicapped on account of the
deep snow. and the fact that operations
were not commenced till the latter part of
December thus compelling him to dig
tmbers out of five feet of snow. When
the snow goes off in the spring develop
ment will be pushed on larger scale.

New York Telegram.
A correspondent writes to inquire what
the biggest stake ever run for on the race
track amounted to.
AS far as we are able to learn the most
valuable race ever run was worth $aso, 900
to the winner. 1t took place at Natchez,
Miss, in 1896, and was a match of $500
bales of cotton side, between J. +. Clay
bourne's Susan Yandell and Walker Thurs
toms Rodolph. 1t was play or pay, and the
cotton stacked was worth $aso,ooo. A
few hours previous to the time set for the
race Rodolph took the big head and Susan
Yandcll had walkover for the rich prize.
