OPEN SWITCH
Rock Slide Near Livingston Caused
Delay Of Several Hours to
Speeding Train; Engineer
Dies Under Wreckaqe

Butte, Mont.-Four persons were
killed and three injured when the
Northern Pacific train number Al ran
into an open switch four miles east
Of Whitehall late Tuesday.
Those killed, excepting Engineer
larry, were riding in the tender with
Reardon. Engineer Barry died ter
rible death. He was pinned between
the stoker plate and elevator of the
engine and for three hours life was
slowly crushed out Of his body des-
pite efforts to release him by use Of
acetylene torches. The train was
running several hours late on account
of a rock slide near Livingston. The
engine was derailed when an open
switch leading to Blackstone spur
was struck. Rail officials said that
there were evidences that the switch
had been tempered with.
James Beamer, Barry's fireman,
said that the engineer threw on the
brakes as soon as he saw the open
switch but the heavy train only
slightly hesitated and then plunged
upon the switch and was wrecked.
Beamer jumped and escaped with
slight injuries.

each 80 feet in length are not the
same as single wire 100 feet long.
There may be 100 feet Of wire In the

be for the full 100 feet.
Be sure to insulate the aerial from
all surrounding objects. II the lead-in
wire comes into contact with any Of
the surrounding objects there will be 4
decided tendency for the current to
leak of, and for the best results, or
pecially on DIX signals, advantage
must be taken Of every little thing.
The ground connection Is fully a.
important as the aerial, as 1t forms a
part Of the open circuit. The best
ground connection is to the cold water
pipe, as this Is the shortest and most
direct lead to the earth. The hot wa
ter pipes and the radiator system will
do II necessary, but there are many
more joints in system Of this kind,
and as these pipe Joints are made up
with white or red lead there Will be
high resistance, which Is to be avoided.
Scrape the cold water pipe until It
shows a shiny finish and then either
use one Of the ground clamps that may
be purchased, or, better yet, take about
ten turns Of the ground wire around
this pipe and solder them In place. If
the ground clamp is used, this also
should be soldered to the pipe. Solder
all connections in both the aerial and
the ground for the best results.

Usually little thought Is given to this
end of the equipment. The receiver
itself may be beautiful Job. carefully
soldered and wired, but frequently the
aerial is sadly neglected.
Here are few things to remember
The aerial should always be in a
straight line. Some beginners have re-
stricted spaces for aerials and they
think that by running the aerial In the
form Of square all around the edge
OF the roof they will get better results.
Others erect three poles on the roof
and run 4 single wire in the form Of
triangle. This IL a waste Of time and
wire.
Run It straight away and not over
100 feet long. Remember that If 1t is
too high 1t will pick up more static,
and If 1t is too low, the signals will
not be as good on long distance. A
happy medium must be hit somewhere
In between.
The lead-in wire should be taken
from one Of the ends and not from the
middle. II the latter way Of taking
of the aerial is used the effectual
length Of the aerial will be just about
cut In half. In other words, use an in
verted L aerial and not T aerial.
If 1t Is not possible to erect the
aerial all In one length and In the same
direction, 1t is permissible to make a
two or three-wire aerial. However, 1t
must be remembered that two wires
