Raising of the longest cable suspen-

Puget Sound. Six cable strands
weighing six tons each and capable
of withstanding a strain of more
than 10000 pounds, We're swung be-
tween two towers 81 feet high. The
towers are 6,240 feet apart, the span
exceeding in length those across the

Especial to Kennebec LolrnaN

Brunswick, Me-, Jan. 10-Thursday.
February Is, group of men repre-
senting the leading professions and

Oh giving aid to the undergraduates
in the choice of their life work, This
will not be the first time that this
sort of thing has been done, but in
the past these talks have come at in
tervals throughout the year. BY con-
centrating them on one day it is
thought that undergraduate interest
will be aroused to greater extent.

ing from classes all men attending
these talks.
Each of the professional and busi-
ness men will have an hour assigned
to him during which he will speak on
his special line, telling of it's advan-
tages and disadvantages. the requis-
ties for success, the best methods of
preparation for it, etc. Part of the
time will be devoted to answering any
questions which may be put to him by
those present. 1t is also hoped that
these men will be able to stay on the
campus all day. and will be able to
meet all students who want confer
ences with them. 1t is not the aim of
the alumni committee to give aid in
securing definite positions, only the
general aspects of the business or
profession being considered. In the
evening there will be in Memorial
Hall lecture by a speaker of nation
al reputation who will address the
whole student body.

Tunneling During
Civil War a Feat
of Engineering

Petersburg, Va, Jan. 20.-(AP)-
One of the greatest pieces OF battle
field engineering of the Civil War
has been brought to light with the
reopening OF the main tunnel by
which the famous. mine under the
Confederate works near Petersburg
was placed. Explosion of the mine
caused the Battle of the Crater" to
go down In history as the most
tragic of that war.
Much Of it's timber still sound, the
tunnel is declared to be a model OF
snoring. 1t is planned to make of 1t
a shrine to American ingenuity and
resourcefulness.
winding its narrow way thirty feet
underground, the tunnel extends a
distance of 80 feet from behind
what was General Grants front line
to the crater itself. Several parallel
and perpendicular shorter tunnels
connect with it. Finally the, pas
sageway enters large underground
room, believed to have been Con-
federate bomb-proof dugout.
1t was this gallery, as it was called
by the Pennsylvania miners of Col
onel Peasants regiment who dug it
in thirty days. that afforded the
means of laying the mines which
were intended to clear the obstruc-
ton to Grants march on Richmond.
In the success of Col. Peasants
plan, which at first Grant described
as "claptrap and nonsense" the
North had placed it's faith for an
immediate ending of the war.
Federal troops had been drilled
for month and Grant had con-
centrated 5000 troops in the ada
cent valley for the charge that was
to follow the explosion at $50 a. m.
or July 30, 1864, which wrecked Ell
notts salient and cleared the way to
the capital of the Confederacy.
Many sections of the passageway
nave now been found to be in place
just as originally built. Here and
there were discovered evidences of
the men of the 49th PENNSYLVANIA
Infantry who dug them. Whether
the parallel gallerys were dug by the
men under General Lee in an effort
to locate the Federals working I'M
foreground or by the same men who
dug their way $40 feet to the crater,
remains undetermined.
Through Col. Peasants tunnel
1000 pounds of explosives were
placed under the Confederate works.
While Grants army waited the fuse
was lit. After an hours wait it was
found necessary to enter the tunnel
and relight it half way up. A few
minutes later came the explosion
which sent 300 Confederates to
death, caused confusion and delay to
the waiting Federal troops, and
paved the way for the rush of Cen
eral Meade's men to their destruc-
ton.
A crossfire from Confederate bat
teries, placed advantageously after it
had been learned that their position
was being undermined. met the Fed
erals as they charged through the
opening made by the explosion. 1t
was two hours before Meade pene-
trated the thin Gray line.
BY that time Malone had come
up with his Petersburg brigade, and
the celebrated "Crater Charge"
drove the enemy beyond the crater,
leaving behind more than 5000 I'm
ion dead. The hope of General
Grant for the immediate capture of
Richmond was wrecked.
