It was"I7je St. PauF' that set a new
struction by building in the remarkably short period of
three years, a new steel highway across the plains, moun
tains,uplands and valleys that lie between theMissouri River
and Puget Sound. By a series of brilliant engineering tri
umphs the road pushed onward directly through the heart
of the Rockies, Bitter Roots and Cascades. As a result "The
St. Paul" is the shortest line between Chicago and the
Pacific North Coast, and leads through the greatest extent
of beautiful mountain scenery on the continent.
Again it is "TfteSt. Paul" that definitely ushers in the
new era in railroading-the era of the electric locomotive.
While such locomotives have been used on coal and ore
roads, in tunnels and terminals this is their first
use in transcontinental service hauling with ease
the country's traffic over the vast ramparts of the
Rockies, effecting great economies in operation,
eliminating all trouble from snow and cold, and mak
ing mountain travel clean and mountain vistas clear..

British Correspondent With

LONDON, April 26
Tho Morning Post's corrcapondent on
tho Italian front writes!
"Tho hills of Carso mtght Well be called
hills of death. In no theatre of tho war
has there been seen such a Macabro and
tragic battle front as tho Carso Tho
main characteristic of this army, whose
achievement Is sometimes wrongly con
atdered alow or too careful. Is that It has
never given up an Inch of ground con
quered on a front of more than 600 kilo
metres "Each shell as It bursts scatters the
rocks In a thousand splinters, deadly as
bullets This Is ono reason why the
Italian losses ft.ro so heavy. Many corps
havo been living for months under these
terrlbto conditions It made me shudder
to seo many soldiers, exhausted by fa
tlgue, asleep leaning against a trench
parapet, with mangled remains unspeak
ably horrlbto sticking out In many places
"Tho Carso Is tho centre of a furious
struggle between the two Armies, each en
deavoring to wear the other down The

As to the assertion that by this raid
