THE SIMPLONT tunnel
GREAT BORE THROUGH ALPS
rs COMPLETED.
Will Revolutionize Railway Traffic
Between Eastern and Western
Europe Difficulties Encoun-
tered During Construction.

The recent completion of the Simplou
tunnel through the Alps mountains
bringing Geneva and French Switzerland
into closer communication with Milan
and the Adriatic railways of Italy, lends
triumph TO what has turned out to be
probably the greatest engineering feat
of the age. Not only is Geneva brought
closer Il Milan by the underground n
nection. but the distance between the
latter and Calais is shortened 81
miles, and it is believed that the Rew
route will not only be the shorter way
to the Adriatic coast from North
Switzerland and France, but, most vital
OF all, it will be a practically level eX-
press service. OF course, as every
means fast trains and cheap freights.
as compared with the expensive opera
tons and traffic now in vogue.
The mere success of the Simplon
tunnel is Liliputian in its ultimate re-
suits beside the great industry which
the completion of this feat has inaugu-
rated. The practice OF boring noun
tains at a low tlevel is almost GER
tain to become general where such a
piece of engineering is contemplated.
Already plans have been made for
piercing the Ligurian Apennines, north
of Geneva tltaly) with a tunnel about
IL miles long, lying at a comparatively
short distance below the surface. mere
ly for the purpose of reducing existing
surface gradations, and thus facilitat-
ing traffic between this port and Milan,
the industrial capital of Italy. The

cording to present plans, to be bored in
order to connect the great international
railroad center of Basel with the Sim
plon tunnel, and so effect a great saw
ing of distance as compared with the
detour now made blythe present Simplon
line via Lausanne and Lake Geneva.
In driving the Simplon tunnel, one of
the great difficulties encountered was
the ~infiuxes of hot water that occurred;
first. on the Swiss side, and. later, on
the Italian side. The spring cut into at
the southern end of the workings could
never have been dealt with from the
northern side.
This spring was the most formidable
n encountered, and yielded 20 gallons

of water per second at a temperature OF
ia degrees Fahrenheit. 1t is located
at the southernmost fringe of that great
tract of subterranean water courses
which has so retarded, during The pre-
vious two years, the progress in the
northern. or Swiss workings.
1t is believed by the contrac. ors en-
gagged in the work of boring the tunnel
that If it had not been for this spring.
which vas discovered near the end Of
the process. that route would have been
completed about six months carrier.
All work throughout the various con-
structional sections in the mail tunnel
had to be suspended. To combat this
inflow, the first step was to enlarge the
springs orifice in the tunnel, i'll order
to reduce the velocity of its thrush, and
then cover up the opening with thick
tagging boards to keep the water out
of the heading, these boards serving
besides as ;nonconductors of heat. The
flow was subsequently led off HI Tough a
special drainage transverse passage be-
tween the two tunnels, the work of bor-
ing which was rushed through, in order
to enable the hot water to be promptly
diverted into a main drain.
Although the Simplon is generally
spoken OF as one tunnel, it is in reality
Two separate channels. running parallel.
TO accomplish this great feat has taken
six and one-half years, and the ex-
penditure of nearly $16,O0O,0 900. Every
advantage which nature offered the
workers was availed of, and the
boring progressed as fast as was per-
missible under the adverse circum-
stances. The difficulties connected with
the route show, themselves in the
progress which the workmen made
through the solid granite rock. The
best rate of advance through a single
heading is placed at about 600 feet.

Common Errors in Speech.

AT fFibNA&Is
Who does not make errors in ev-
eryday speech? AS a matter of fact
it is very unusual to find any person
whose use of the English language is
absolutely correct. The following
are examples OF some very frequent
errors or faulty expressions often
heard:
Let you and / go'-should be
you and me"
Il am rs good rs her"-should be
"as She"
you are younger than me-
should be than l."
Come to dinner with John and T.
should be John and me-"
Between o and I"-should be
you and me-"
where are you going? Who?
Me?'-should be who? -"
who do you see?"-should be
whom
''If was her"-should be IF |
were she"
Was it him?"-should be Was
it hep"
Who was it by?"-should be
whom
These examples of Faulty Die
ton are so common that many peo-
pie look upon the improper form as
form as being the cotaoin taoin TN
being the correct one, and the i'm
proper form as being the correct one,
and Thomas H. Russell, LIB, edi-
tor7in-chief of Webster's Imperial
Dictionary, has lone the public a
great service in having written the
new book, entitled Faulty Diction,
or Errors in the Use of the English
Language and How to Correct Them"
which the publishers have, by print
ing it on thin Bible paper, succeeded
in getting into what may be called
Vest-Pocket size.
Illustrating the comprehensive
treatment that has been given the
subject by the author, there are 1917
headings treated in the book, under
some of which-'plurals" for in
stance-over fifty errors that are not
at all unusual are to be found illus
