Railroad Gossip

A system of telephone train dispatch
put into service by the AtchisOn. To-
on it's Illinois division between Chilli
cothe, H.. and Dearborn street. Chi
cago, a distance of 134 miles On this
circuit the dispatcher is located at
Chilicothe. There are so way stations
in which telephones and selective
equipment have been installed
With the completion of this circuit
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
trains running out Of Chicago are ham
died by the telephone as far as New
ton. Kan. A total of $50 miles is COW
cred from Chicago TO Newton There
are on this section a total of 170 way
stations, all equipped with standard
Western Electric telephone train dis
patching apparatus and Gill bridging
selectOrs. Each of these stations has
idirect communication over the tele-
phone with the dispatcher of it's di-
vision.
The Southern Pacific company has
made a deal whereby it acquires the
Nacozari railroad between Douglas and
Nacozari, in Sonora. Mex, and the
Arizona and Colorado liEe between
Douglas and Courtland. Ariz. 1t thus
connects the new road being built be-
tween Cumpas and Mazatlan. Mex.
with the transcontinental road.
The deal is looked upon as very
important as il will give the Southern
Pacific a direct entry to Mazatlan.

Total eclipse of the moon, No
vember 26-27.
By ROSE o,HALLoRAN

IF the weather be clear at the mid
night hour Of Friday we, may see
the full moon immersed in the earth's
dark shadow and dimIy illumined with
a tint in contrast to it's usual golden
glare. This condition will last for one
hour and % minutes. rne most erectivs
aspect being presented when half way
through the shadow, near 1 o'clock
a. M Saturday. Though this event is
not rare it happens that with the ex-
ception of October 16. 1902. the phe-
nomenon was unseen in San Francisco
for several decades, owing to cloudi-
ness.
The most remarkable feature is
the pink light that oversp- -ads the
lunar disk when the preceding partial
phase is past and which entirely dis
appears when totality is ended. Why
the Opaque moon remains discernable
when entirely screened from direct sun

have evoked many surmises in early
times, but this has long been simply

ascending node, as otherwise it would
pass centrally through the shadow. The
