built in the form Of an arch, this
structure differs from the Shoshone

sufficient to secure stability.
The resulting reservoir will be the

storage capacity of 100000 acre-feet

devised by A. Beamer, superintendent
of the Idaho division of the Northern
Pacific, which is in operation on the

The party went over the Pasco di-
vision in a special car, accompanied
by Superintendent Beamer. The sys-
tenn was given thorough test, trains
being handled by the block cards when
travelling at a speed as high as Go
miles an hour.
In the opinion of each member of
our party the system of controlling
train operation devised by Mr.. Beamer
is a success" said Mr.. Forbes. ITO my
mind its chief merit is in the safety
which it affords while at the same
time facilitating train movement. l

tenn for several months and 1 believe
that it will prove a practical success
from every point of view
