Shovel Dug Itself Out

From the Louisville Courier Journal
 When a steam shovel had excavated a pit in connection with some grade crossing work near New York, 1t ex- tricated itself by burrowing down still further until 1t reached convenient subway and then trundled itself out gineering News which calls 1t a tale of ''resourcefulness in operating steam shovel" We read
 making the second cut in a set taon of the grade crossing elimination work which the Long Island railroad has had under way for the last three years in east New York. When this section of the second cut had been finished. the disposition of the shovel presented something of problem. 1t would not do to lift 1t out of the cut. because the slopes might slide, nor could 1t be backed out by the way 1t had entered, because of the timbering in the rear. The four tubes of the tunnel had been completed to a point where the second cut on this section began. It was decided that the simplest way of moving the shovel to the surface was to have it dig it's way down to one of the concrete tubes, the floor of the second cut. and then to run the shovel out to the portal on the track laid inside the tube. The soil handled by the shovel was lifted out of the cut by a crane equipped with . bucket In order to keep the water distributed uniformly in the boiler and the fire burning properly. the rear truck of the shovel was removed and the shovel skidded on timbers down an IS per cent grade. Walter H. Gahagan. the con tractor. states that the entiie opera tion was performed without any par ticular difficulty"

Valuable LESSON
IN Training CAMP
Congressman Miller Says
PlattSburg Soldering"
DiSpelled Many Illusions
SAYS BIG ARMY CAN'T
BE PREPARED IN HURRY

Congressman Thomas w. Miller at
noon today addressed the members of
the Rotary Club at their luncheon at
the Hotel dupont, on the military
training camp of business and profess
sional men at Plattsburg. n. Y. in
which he participated for nearly a
month.
Mr.. Miller said that all the men who
went through the rigorous training
there we're soon disillusioned of any
idea that soldier can be made in a
month, or that an army of one million
men can be mObilized and made ef-
ticient within a short time.
Congressman Miller prefaced his re-
marks on the Plattsburg camp with
a discussion of the subject of mill
.tary preparedness, showing the lack
of an adequate army and navy. "Oi
the thirty thousand troops in the
States. almost seventy-five per cent
are mobilized along the Mexican Dor
der. from Texas to California, under
the command Of General Funston" he
said, after showing that the army
of the United States. including men il
all the country's possessions, is bu
$4,000 officers and men.
"The United States has paid dearl,
in the past for military unprepared
ness Mr.. Miller added. He said bu
dozen Of the forty-eight battleshipl
named after the States could "giv'
and take in the naval battles Of to
day" and the remaining three-fourthl
of those ships would be outranged b.
foreign ships before they could com
mence firing. This statement is no
hearsay, but fact. Mr. Miller con
tinued
"The military instruction camp a
