RAILROAD ON PAPER
1t is Possible That Smith and Mason VAL
lies May be TraVerSed.

The press dispatches are again
industriously projecting railroad
to traverse the fertile vallies of
this county, as the following will
show:
1t will be a short time only be-
fore an overland railroad will trav-
el FL Dorado county, Cal, from its
western to its eastern border.
The Sacramento and Placerville,
is now the nucleus which will con-
meet with the trunk line of the
Central Pacific somewhere in Ne
vada
Where the new line will con-
meet with the Central Pacific in
Nevada is not yet determined. A
very rich country would be ex-
plored by passing through the val
lies of the Walker River, the fer
tile basin known as Smith Valley
and Mason Valley, and thence
through Churchill county, Nevada,
and along the Carson Sink to the
main line near WinnemucCa.
The shorter route but one which
will open up nothing but tourist
travel and lumber traffic would be
along the western shores of Lake
Tahoe and thence down the
Truckee river.
The first route spoken of would
certainly open up an agricultural
section of vast proportions, also
some very valuable mineral coun-
try. Such a route would come
into Carson Valley from Placer
vile, thence on through to Smith
Valley and by one of several easy
passes into the upper end of Ma
son Valley. From here an easy
route could be obtained to trav-
erse the length of this valley and
thence on into Churchill county.
Such a route would open up sew
eral hundred thousand acres of

meeting with success are small.
Although this may not apply with
equal force to the farmer, who
necessarily is not dependent to so
great an extent as professional
men and mechanics on a knowl-
edge of the language in order to
succeed, still, even to the farmer
it is very desirable acquisition.
Furthermore, all who come to
Mexico should have at least 81 900
to s., 1000 in gold. They will then
be in condition to investigate
and study the people and the
country. At the first glance hun
dreds of apparently profitable op-
portunities present themselves to
the newcomer, but if he is wise
he will actually remain investiga
ting for six months to familiarize
himself with the commercial and
social conditions which may exist
where he proposes to locate. This
may seem an exaggeration, but
even year would be still more
advantageous, if it were possible
to remain idle for that length of
time. There is much on the sur
face that appears seductive, but
hasty investments are generally
disastrous. To this hundreds can
testify who hrve plunged thought
lessly into enterprises concerning
which they had no previous eX-
perience or knowledge. Newcom-
ers should make haste slowly,
identify themselves with people OF
all classes and nurse their capital
in order to increase it an hundred
fold. This is possible since ready
money commands an enormous in
terest, when iudiciously invested
and protected by the valuable
knowledge gained during the pro
bationary period mentioned.

agricultural country and some OF
the best virgin mineral country in
the State. Besides it would be a
means of affording cheap trans
portation for fuel into the copper
belt of this valley, which would
be the means of again starting up
the copper mining industry of
this section.
1t is, of course, a little previous
to contemplate a railroad of this
kind, but when the agricultural
sections are all furnished with
water and sub-divided into eighty
one hundred and sixty acre farms
there is no doubt that a railroad
will be constructed to follow, prac-
tically, the route above outlined.
Great enterprises move slowly,
but surely, and those who can
now secure homes in these dis
tricts and make a comfortable liv-
ing for a few years will in the
years to come find that they acted
wisely, for so sure as one day fol
lows another our vallies will ere
long be overrun by home-seekers
property enhanced in value, and
the man with a small farm will
then find himself the possessor Of
property which will yield him
nice income.

AN UNPRECEDENTED CASE
thorough Research Being Made as to What
Caused Will Whitten'S Death

Caused Will Whitten's Death
The death of William Written
at the Monroe House, in Reno,
February IS, from a shock re-
ceived from an electric light fix
ture, has led to much investigation
as to the cause of death. The re-
search is being carried on by Prof.
]. G. Scrugham of the engineer
ing department of the University
of Nevada. There is no similar
case on record and this investiga-
ton is for scientific reasons with a
view to remedying the evil. Prof.
Scrugham is one of the foremost
engineers in the West and through
his efforts the scientific papers of
the country will have several tech
nical articles upon the death and
circumstances that led to it.
In an interview Prof. Scrugham
said in part: The burns on both
the hands indicate a grounded cir
cult through the metal washstand
upon which the victim was lean
ing The investigation has prov
en- that there is no ground through
this source at present, but at that
time the conditions were entirely
| different, as a severe storm was in
progress and the ground was satu-
rated with water. The test will
be continued under these condit-
ions as soon as the weather per
mits.
The test for a ground circuit
was made with lamp, magnet
and galvanometer. All of the
tests show no ground at present.
The wet weather still increases
the chance for grounding the cir
cult. By grounding is meant the
furnishing of a return path to the
line through the ground by an
outside conductor as the wash
basin and the metal drainpipe in
! this instance.
Death in cases of this kind are
usually from heart disease, but the
severe burns on the hands would
indicate electrocution. As it re-
quires from 1900 to 1900 volts to
electrocute when used in cases of
criminals, it is possible that high
induced static charge was the
cause of death in this instance
The shock was not received from
the wire, as was generally sup
posed, but from the brass on the
end of the light bulb.
This is one of the very few
cases on record of death resulting
from a shock on low potential sys-
TENS. This line carried no volts,
Another remarkable case is that of
the death of a Brooklyn lineman,
who was killed from 22o volts.
This case was commented on by
the electric journals.
The investig cation of this case
will be continued until a satisfact-
ory solution has been obtained.
Immediately following this the
work will be given in detail in a
number of electrical engineering
journal.-Journal.
