 "One thing is certain" said Mr. Clair, mo finer scenic route in the world will be found than trip over the government railroad when it is finished. This will apply to eithn.' winter or summer.

Alloy Stronger Than Steel.

An Italian engineer has discovered
q new alloy of zinc and copper which
is stronger than steel and less cor
roslve than copper, says the Scientific
American. The most important charac'
teristics Of the new alloy, which has
been named "Black Metal" are the
hiehest known breaking point, the high
est limit of elasticity, perfect homo
keneity and higher resistance to both
heating and chemical action. It has
heen stated that it can successfully be
cast, machined, rolled, forged, drawn
and stamped. 1t Is expected that 1t
will prove an acceptable substitute for
steel brass and aluminium.
