Bold Yankee Engineers.


The operations Of Yankee engineers
are source of constant wonder and
bewilderment to all foreigners. The
daring way in which the Americans
blow up mountains that come In their
way or string bridges over seemingly
impossible canyons almost takes their
breath away.
On one job in South America a con-
tractor used about $4,000 worth Of
powder in blasting. He employed 5000
men and completed piece of work In
less than three months that local au:
therities said-eeuld not be done inside
Of ten years.
He put 1900 kegs of powder in one
blast. and when the shot went of it
sent over 700 train loads Of rock down
a cliff into the river. There was such
a mass Of debris that it raised the wa
ter Of the stream fifty-five feet in less
than twenty minutes. The channel
had to be blasted out to let the water
through. The force of this immense
charge was so great that 1t sent huge
powders the size Of box cars sailing
over the hill like flock of buzzards
flying over barn.-Toledo Blade.
