NATRON EXTENSION is
BEING RUSHED FAST

Eugene, Ore.-Construction on the
Natron extension will be rushed hard
er than ever this summer in an eff
fort to complete the work next fall
before the wet weather begins. About
1850 laborers are on the line and this
number will be increased as fast as
the contractors can get men. Two
additional steam shovels are on the
way and a force with a power plant
will go over the divide and commence
work on the big tunnel and work
this way to meet the boring on this
side that is now over half finished.
The three bridges will be put in this
summer also. 1t is thought that if
the men can be obtained the 35 miles
on this end of the line can be fin
ished by December-or almost within
year after the real work COM
menced.
The work on the tunnels is pro-
crossing very rapidly. The usual cut
on each of them is about Six feet a
day. on tunnel No. 8, which is the
longest, the cutters have entered the
mountains 93S feet, which is over
half the distance. Machinery and
supplies are now being hauled over
the mountain to set UP a compress
and power plant so that men can bore
from the other side, and be working
both ways.
Work on the three bridges will soon
begin. The Middle Fork bridge will
be $50 feet long and has two piers
and abutments, and the others are
500 feet long, with the same con-
struction. The bridges are of steel
and the abutments and piers of con-
crete.
The Southern Pacific steel crew will
begin work about the middle of July
and the work of laying the rails will
continue until winter. At present
there are about 1000 tons of 90 pound
steels in the yards at Natron. The
contractors expect to have all the
rails and bridges connected as far as
Oak Ridge by the middle of Decem,
ber.
When this is done the base of sup
plies will be moved from Natron to
Oak Ridge. 1t will be from there that
the next contract will be worked.

Train Men Were Gallant.

AS a demonstration of the belief
that all employees of railroads are not
lacking in gallantry, Mayor Murphy
is telling of an incident which hap
pened on East Court street near the
hospital Tuesday evening. Mrs. Muir
ply was driving along the street
when a heavily loaded freight train
came putting up the grade with so
much noise that the horse became
frightened, turned sharply and threw
Mrs. Murphy out. She hung onto the
lines notwithstanding the fact that
one of the front wheels was on her
back and in this position she was be-
ing dragged along the street by the
frightened animal when the train
crew stopped their train on the steep
grade and rushed to her assistance,
The act is greatly appreciated by the
mayor as well as by Mrs Murphy.
