PICKING OUT MOTORS
FOR THE INTERURBAN
Engineer Says Gasoline Cars Are
Proving Successful.

N. Oliver Moorshead, the engineer for
the proposed Central Kansas Inter.
urban line, has returned from 4 trim
to Omaha and st. Louis, where he had
gone on business connected with the
line.
u The visit to Omaha was for the
purpose Of visiting the McKeen Motor,
car works, these cars being in gener-
Al use over the interurban lines ana
on many Of the railroads. He visited
the entire plant and met many off,
Gals from other roads who were
there for the purpose of purchasing
the finished product. These cars |
are equipped with gasoline motors i
and each car Is sufficient unto IT,
self. Not being connected in any
way with the other cars on the line. |!
an accident to one would not Law Il
out the others as is the case in those
run by electricity. During the visit /
to Omaha Mr.. Moorshead met a rep
resentative of an Ohio traction com. 9
pany who stated that that road was 8
built with the purpose Of using cleo <
trlcity' but the plan had been changed .
to gasoline and the gentleman was y
here buying cars. q
After reaching st. Louis Mr.. Moors- q,
read took ride over the Mckinley "a
Inc, and noted with satisfaction that 70
ne cars were crowded during the on Il Il
Ire trip. That the interurban had 4,
ot been a losing proposition was ~
specially in evidence when the ~ ~
ridge recently built by the company. Cd
cross the. Mississippi at hte cost o. "
100000 is taken into considera- =
on.
The prospectus prepared by Mr..
oorshead of the proposed Central

 Pumps with capacity to lift their
 water load 2.000 feet will be installed. This depth will not be reached for
 some time in the shaft, but all the water will be conveyed to this point and the company will prepare for any emergency in the way of excessive flows. There has been great work of water pumping by Superior X Pfttsbure. They know much of the
 unwatering business, an have paid
 for their knowledge. A river of wa ter was steadily sent out from the
 Bisbee basin by this organization for
 several years.

 corning this and kept hammering away, drawing their checks to pay the cost Of pumps and fuel and final
 ly that underground river" was only an underground creek. A pretty steady volume still, to be sure, but no river that could not be exhausted The work drained all the surrounding territory and some of the neighbors very kindly offered to pay for a DOT ton of the expense recognizing the fact that the pumping had relieved them from the necessity of bothering about water as their mines now were dry.
 It has proved, too, as the old Lake
 Superior miners believed, that the formation holding this excessive amount of water would also contain something worth while in ore. In our Lake Superior hematite iron mines where a heavy flow of water is en- counte-ed we look for correspond ingly large ore deposit, having by experience developed this condition The Junction ground is proving very rich. The Briggs, from which SO much water was exhausted, will also be found to contain ores oi nigh grade and in large bodies. AS vet the Briggs has not been opened

Gray Hair
The Logical Explanation

There is a great deal OF mlsinfor.
nation about the care OF the hair and
the cause OF hair getting gray prema.
turely II used to be believed that in
some families gray hair was heredi-
tary, like blue eyes or quick temper.
Science, however. has proved that
gray hair is simply lack OF the prop.
er hair food and is In every case an
individual problem. Premature gray
hair is easily preventable, and when
Il first appears all that Is necessary
is to apply some reliable hair food
such as HAYS HAIR HEALTH. This
standard remedy is entirely harmless
and is In sense a dye. being pre-.
paration rich IN the exact kind Of
sustenance that the scalp needs to
keep the hair from decaying Gray

One OF the most valuable books on the
care OF the hair can be had from the

SW00n After Rescue

SAN BERNARDINO, July 90
George Lansdowne was rescued this
afternoon from perilous position on
the edge of jutting crag, near Lytle
creek, where he had remained q pris-
oner for six hours, every moment of
which he was in desperate straits.
Lansdowne was deer hunting, and in
attempting to follow a deer down a
steep descent into Lytle creek, he
found himself slipping toward a pre-
cipice. He managed to gain a foot
hold upon a slevling rock and grasping
a slender shrub he remained as mo-
tionless as possible, at times shouting
for help.
Only the fact THAT to attempt to
change his position might mean death
by a fearful plunge over the precipice
kept him alert Six hours after his
perilous slide, Ben McRae and Howard
Smithson heard his calls for aid and
after much difficulty located the man
high above them, looking like a mere
speck against the steep wall of the
mountain. They hurried by a cir
cuitous trail to a point above where
Lansdowne clung, and lowered a stake
rope, with a moose on its end which
Lansdowne slipped over his shoulders,
and was gradually pulled to safety.
Once on level ground the hunter
and remained in dead swoon
for almost half an hour. He is still
suffering from the intense nervous
shock, and his arms and neck are
paining as though with rheumatism.

POLYTECHNIC BUILDING
PLANS ARE COMPLETED

LONG BEACH, July 29.-The plans
for the main building of the Polytech-
mic high school group have been COM
pleted and show a handsome structure
with a frontage of 210 feet and a depth
of 10S feet, exclusive of the auditorium
which extends sixty-five feet further
than the regular east line of the
building.
The structure, which is to be built
on a mission idea but to follow classical
lines, Is to be two stories in height,
containing recitation and teachers rest
room on each flood. The auditorium,
6Sx72 feet in size, will seat 1900. A
large gallery is also planned and the
stage is fully equipped for light theatri-
Gals. All the halls are sixteen feet
wide.
The exterior of the building is en-
tirely of brick and plaster. The main
entrance, thirty-seven feet wide, at the
center of the front line of the build
ing, opens into a patio sixty seven feet
wide, as do narrower entrances on
either side through arches. The patio
offers possibilities for attractive deco
ration with flowers and, like the mis-
sion dome surmOunting the building
mingles the mission feeling cleverly
with the other classical lines of the
structure. There are to be small globes,
finished in the same style as the ex-
terror, placed at frequent intervals
along the edges of the roof.
The architect, A. Bernard Sturges,
recently from Toledo, o., has evolved
ideas for the other large buildings
which will complete the group but has
not put them on paper.
