miracle they could be transplanted

resume their functions. This, how
ever, is well demonstrated medical
fact. The human heart has been re-
moved from the body more than thirty
hours after death and made to beat
again. DIR. Carrel himself has taken
the heart from one dog and inserted

the aorta with the carotid artery Of
the new heart and the vena cava with
its jugular vein. In few moments
the live dog had two hearts rhythmical-
ly beating. one recording a pulse Of

Two nice and tender slices clear

slice looked like frost bitten leaf

to propose shooting full grown river

in making that subterranean channel
for the river since the beginning of
the work, four years ago.
1t was comparatively easy to work
at the west side of the tunnel. The
slope of the mountain towards the
Uncompahgre valley is gentle, but on
the Gunnison side it was necessary to
build wagon road leading into the
frightful canyon, where the work at
the east portal was started. This
road is 16 miles long, and in some
places rises 23 feet in every 100 feet
Down this road heavy machinery was
hauled, and the materials for build

the difficulties. The water going down
grade with the slope of the tunnel had
to be pumped out at the rate of 500, 900
gallons day Subterranean lakes were
tapped, and when the drills penetrated
the water stream 40 feet in length

encountered at times, raising the tenn
perature of the tunnel to such an ex-
tent that the miners were compelled to
work almost naked. AT one time a
heavy flow of carbon dioxide, or choke
damp, caused the workers to run for
their lives, many narrowly escaping
asphyxiation.
But the tribulations of the mountain
borers are over. Only a few rods of
shale and rock remain to be blasted
