BIG BLAST IN ARIZONA.
Side Of Mountain Broken Up to Sup.
ply Railroad Ballast.

One Of the biggest things in the
blasting line ever done took place the
other day near STEMS Pass, Arizona,
when the whole side of a mountain
was dislodged to ballast 100 miles OF
track, all in one explosion.
Preparations for the blast had been
going on for several weeks under the
direction of G. w. Kearney, powder
expert for the Southern Pacific, and
A. B. Crane, an expert for the com.
pany which furnished the powder. In
making the blast $4,000 pounds of
powder was used
The object was to obtain rock for
ballasting the Tucson division of the
Southern Pacific. The sight when the
powder was touched off was one of
the most remarkable ever witnessed
In this part OF the Southwest The
whole side Of the mountain was lifted
about twenty-five feet and then set
tied back with groan. broken mass
of stone.
1t is estimated that body of rock
weighing 775,0O0,0o0 pounds was dis
lodged by this explosion.

Catch Phrases.

People catch up striking phrases
and work them until they become very
tiresome. The pulpit and the prayer
meeting are especially in danger Of
such OVERRIDING. 1t is well Tor the
preacher and for the leader IN prayer
to watch themselves, and if they find
that one certain phrase is becoming
very common in their utter.ncgs to
call halt at once, The more striking
the phrase the greater need to use it
rarely if it's significance or force IS to
be he!d.-Presbyterian Of tie South.
