Extent Of $4,000. According to
Reports Sent Out.

The Burlington Hawk-Eye says:
The Burlington railroad at an early
date will expend from $4,000 to ST.
100000 on the erection of q new ma

will put the West Burlington shops in
class by themselves.
The size OF the old machine and
erecting shop is $50 feet by 315. The
dimensions Of the new building will
be 800 feet by 600. A good idea OF
the size of the new structure may, be
had when you figure that 1t will COW
er twice the area Of North Hill park.
In present conditions, this shop is
able to turn out twenty engines a
month. The capacity Of the new one
will be fifty engines for the same
period. or two each working day.
1t is understood that the building
now used as the machine and erecting
shop will be converted into the boiler
works. 1t is equipped with the trav-
cling cranes and the boiler makers
will practically walk into a house al
ready completely furnished for them.
new power plant, up to the minute
In every detail, will also be erected
at cost Of $25, 200.
Fully six hundred additional en-
ployes will be needed to man the new
shop and its auxiliaries.

by the Anzacs; of lonely cemeteries

of the thousands Of graves at Amaze
is marked with cross-some times

ing ITO the memory Of Fifty Austral-

was not so hard to leave their dead
They believe the place where dead

spirits who would do evil to intruders.

the graves Of Maori warriors. The
true spirit Of humanity which ami
mates the Turks in their fighting Is
shown In the stories of the Anzacs.
An instance of this was shown in May
when both sides agreed to a burial
armistice. An imaginary line was
drawn through No Mans Land between
the trenches and pickets from both
sides patrolled it while searching
parties from both secured the under
brush OF the hills and hollows. The
Turks brought the christian dead to
the line, the Anzacs doing likewise
with the slain Mohammedans. Relig-
ious rites were hurriedly observed on
both sides as the bodies were placed
in hastily dug trenches. Crosses were
erected and the armistice came to an
end It is this spirit on the part of
the Turk that makes the Anzacs be-
lieve that the last resting places of
their dead, crosses, inscriptions and
all, will not be molested. Hundreds
Of Anzacs will go back there after the
war to visit the silent graves. It is
declared not improbable that all the
crosses marking the thousands OF
graves will be replaced by more dur
able markings of stone to forever COM
the memory OF the lead.
