TGU SCI TIE


TUCSON, Nov. I5.-Railroad men
in this city are being interested in a
new steel cross tie. It is claimed for
the tie that 1t may be used with any
form of rail clamps. The new tie is
formed by pressing or bending fat
3iece Of steel plate or skelp into "box"
form, leaving longitudinal slot or
open space between the abutting lat
eral edges of the blank which now form
the bottom of the tie. The result Is
tie of downward and outwardly far
ng sides which, although formed OF
relatively thin material, is Of great
strength owing to ifs contour.
The thrust of traffic, owing to its
aaring sides, Is safely assumed with
out danger of rupture or hattening
ma the body Of the tie is resident
enough to take up the wave motion
and vibrations of traffic. The result
is tie which does not tend to upset
and does not pound the ballast" as
do the steel ties Of girder or 1-beam
types, which are Of rigid construction
and have been condemned by railway
experts because of their inability to
assume the vibration and move motion
caused by traffic,
The peculiar structure of the tie
enables much lighter material to be
used for bending without sacrificlHs
strength. For street railway use,
where the tie Is embedded under the
surface Of paving. there is offered a
simple form of tie made by bending
up a fat piece Of skeip Of thickness
running from three-sixteenths Of an
inch up. To each side Of the point
where the rail traverses the tie top In
which is seated the fastener
To the arm OF the slots are holes
through which bolts extend loosely
downward to engage the bolt holes in
the lower arms OF the Z-shaped fast
eners. BY Tightening the bolts the low
CT arms OF the fasteners are raised
and the upper arms eorrespondinsly
depressed thus clamping down firmly
against the base OF the rail-

Sheriff Henderson went out to
the Loreauville section this morn
ing to see if he could not find the
thieves who held up and robbed
a negro farmer Saturday night
and left him unconscious ON the
roadway.
1t appears that a hard working
negro farmer named Joe Matt had
taken his cotton to the Loreauville
gin and sold it. He had the pro-
ceeds, something more than 800
in his pocket and was on his way
home from the gin when he was
set upon by two men, but whether
they were white or black he could
not tell in the dark.
They dragged him from his
wagon beat him till unconscious
and then left him in the road
after taking his money.

Some OF these nights the Prov

be laid out cold. Last night Mr.
A. Girard, candidate for Parish
Clerk. tried to stop his career
with a bullet but it is probable
that the marauder escaped with
out injury.
It was only the night before
that some person tried to get into
the house of Mrs. James Barras,
across the Bayou. He was heard
at the window and an alarm Civ

his hat in crossing the yard of
Mr., Girard next door for early
yesterday morning one of the
children found the hat in the gar
den.
Once before an attempt was
made to enter the house Of Mr..
Girard when none but the ladies
was at home. The man actually
walked past the dining room win
dow on the gallery and entered
the kitchen but Mr.. Rene Girard
returned home a few minutes later
and the man heard him and fed.
These occurrences made Mr.. Gil
rard watchful and when last night
he heard some one moving in the
yard and on the gallery he fired
two shots in the direction of the
noise. The intruder fled.
Nearly every householder across
the Bayou is armed and the in
+truder that expects to get in will
receive a warm reception.
