French engineers announce four pos
slble new directsand through transpor-
tation routes starting from Paris. says
the Outlook. One is called "The Acrop-
oils Express" The present parls-Ath-
ems route runs across France and Italy
to the port Of Brindlsi, thence by wa.
ter to the port OF Patras In Greece, and
thence by rail to Athens. The new
route would save little in actual run
ming time, but would eliminate the de-
lays In trans-shipments. 1t would fol-
low the present route TO Italy, whence
II would veer due east to Trieste, and
thence east and south through Croatia
and Serbia.
The second route Is between Paris
and Constantinople, following the first
to Belgrade, and thence over the old
Berlin-Bagdad route to Constantlnople.
Another new through route Is to
Odessa, the great Black sea port. This
would start from Paris and Bordeaux
and cross Italy. the Balkan states and
southwestern Russia. This route
would demand new trackage from Bel
grade along the Danube about 1870
miles.
But on the fourth proposition such
an immense amount Of railway con-
struction, as well MS Of undersea tun-
nellng. would be required as to make
one query whether for very many years
the scheme could ever become profita-
BILE. The plan is TO save time between
London and Paris on the one hand and
Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires on
the other. AS the distance from the
French port of DallDr In Senegal, on
the West African coast. to the north
Brazilian ports involves the shortest
transatlantic span, French engineers
propose to link Paris and Dakar by
rail. tunneilng the Straits Of Gibraltar
and building line down the coasts Of
Morocco. Rio de ORC md Senegal /;
Spain's consent being assumed. If the
English channel Is ever tunneled, this
route would thus save a considerable
number OF days (but would add to the
cost in the transit Of passengers and
goods from London and Paris to Rio
de Janelro and Buenos Aires.

Fine Pearl Necklaces.

I'M OF 80 necklaces which nave been
fnkde from the magnificent collection
of pearls contributed to the Red Cross
from all parts of the British empire,
two are Of considerable interest.
One OF them Is composed almost en-.
tirely OF the fine collection of pearls
sent from Egypt as result of the
Red Cross appeals, and the other is a
specially beautiful necklace of pearls
of the straw-colored tone which is so
much sought after by buyers. The
necklaces are not of uniform size !;
they vary in length, in color and, OF
course, in value. But all Of them are
OF great beauty, for they consist Of tho
best pearls from many famous neck
lIsces, as well as from less well-ln,own
lphes. matched by the chief experts In

FIRE FIGHTERS TRAPPED;
FLEE INTO STREAMS

Missoula, July 26.-Word came to-
day of the spectacular escape of a
crew of between 60 and 70 men trap
ped by a fire in the Selway forest.
Supervisor Wilfred w. White receiv-
ed word of their adventure late this
afternoon.
The men, trapped from behind by
a fire, were compelled to leap into a
small stream and remain up to their
necks in the water until the fire had
passed. All their equipment was to-
tally destroyed, one horse was burn
ed to death and several others were
badly burned, their saddles being burn
ed from their backs.
The crew of men were engaged with
a fire on the northern boundary of the
Nez Perez forest just west of the head
of the bitter Root valley, where this
forest adjoins the selway. They had
been fighting a fire in the Salmon
mountain region, when the Selway fire
worked around behind them, trapping
them between the two fires.
They had no chance to escape by
flight or to rescue any of their equip
ment, the report said, and only saved
themselves by plunging into the
stream.
