Babcock and Love Before the
Senate in Washington on
Utah Rate Cases.

For the season 191o-11 the local Harri-
man lines will contract for l2500 tons
OF steel for the Short Line and 10000
tons for the Southern Pacific lines east
OF Sparks. All this steel Will be the
heavy ninety pound size and will mean
the relaying with that heavy steel OF
over $50 miles OF main line. which Will
mean the same distance or more of the
lighter rails taken up and which can be
used in sidinGs and extensions. Tho
current order will be filled by the Colo
rado Fuel and Iron company. Delivery
will commence this summer.
Last season. or rather the season end
ing with June so OF the present year,
included 1876 miles of ninety pound steel
for the main lines OF the Idaho and Mon
tana divisions. so IT can be seen that the
whole OF the local system Is gradually
being relaid with the heavy steel.
Every rail taken UP is good for years
to come on a branch line. so this i'm
mense order Will give the company ample
rails with which TO build branches. The
new line from Moreland To the new town
OF Pingree. for instance, has been partly
graded, and orders for track laying have
been issued and the work will commence
at once The contract, therefore. means
two big moves-the rclaying OF main lines
and the building OF branches to develop
territory

BIG IMPROVEMENTS IN
TELEGRAPH ON o. S. L.

The telegraph department OF modern
railroad is quite an important feature.
On the Oregon Short Line the work OF
this department is rapidly growing and
some interesting facts can be cleaned
about the telegraph offices. The Short
Line now has twenty eight wires 10 Og-
den, twenty from Ogden TO Pocatello,
eight from Pocatello TO Butte, nine from
Pocatello to Portland. and three from
Poca tello TO Granger. which includes
the five new wires being strung TO Ogden
by the Western Union. the two from Og-
den TO Pocatello. and the one each to
Portland and TO Butte.
In addition, the railroad is building
300 miles OF pole line on new lines, In
cluding the rebuilding of the pole line
from Boise 10 Huntington.
bxperiments with tho telephone IN train
dispaJching having proved success. the
line from Sandy 10 Ogden Is now operated
10 Include several hundred miles addi-
uonal under the new system. This Is
merely using telephones in place of the
telegraph to dispatch trains. the operator
conversation rather than by the ticking
OF the instrument. All trains 10 and
from Ogden are handled by telephone
with the greatest success, and that is
lines are equipped with standard cop
per metallic circuits and the best modern
appa ratus, all owned exclusively by the
railroad company,
This important movement on the Ore
gon Short Line is in keeping with the
general movement in the same direction
throughout the country, the system being
adopted by many OF the great roads, and
u can be said that the telephone for train
dispatching will surely supersede the old
and time -honored telegraph in this branch
of railroad operation.
The work OF the department. on the
local road therefore is full OF general
Interest and shows that the Short Line

GOT PHOTOGRAPH OF PANTHER
Exciting Experience Which Few Mem bers of the Party Care to Go

A panther is not easily killed, and will often revive with very unpleasant results, as on a certain occasion in the Dcccan. Ife appeared to be quite dead, and one of the spectators rushed up with camera on a stand to obtain a picture of the supreme moment. He got his photograph, and, strange to say, it survived what followed; but no sooner had he taken it than the pan there revived, tore himself loose, and went for the photographer Somehow the man escaped, but the camera was sent flying, and, disconcerted by his encounter with it, the panther turned and made for the nearest tree, up which he went as quickly as a monkey Now, the tree was crowded with in- terested spectators, and for three or four strenuous seconds (until the panther was shoD we enjoyed a spec tacle of natives dropping to earth with loud thuds like ripe plums from a jungle tree as the panther approached them.-Wide World Magazine.
