"The most costly little stretch of road
bed for a railroad in any country is said
to be on the Carbondnle division of the
Krlo railroad near Ararat Summit. It
Is only ii quarter of a mile long, but It
cost nearly $300,0(10 to get the track

"The railroad was completed In 1S70
and trains had passed over It, but one
night a iuurtor of a mile of the track
and railtoad disappeared entirely, and
a treat quagmire occupied the place
where apparently solid ground had
been befoic. Into this was put 10,000
carloads of snivel and 500 largo hem
lock trees were thrown In without bav
ins any .perceptible effect toward form
ing a bottom on which a new railroad
could be founded. Th"- finally found
solid rock 100 feet below the surface
and made a solid foundation by driving
four piles, each forty feet long one on
top of another. It took l.."00 trees nnd
a whole hill of gravel to make the solid
bed.

When Boreiiinlns bullota flew.
Four yeiirr we taught M'ie devils.
Hut whfi the war wus dope
Your hotul met mine In friendly clasp,
Our two heart beat as one.
A. el ivw when danger threatens
No Noph, no South, we know,
Oune more we stand together
To AMU the common foe.
My head, like vours, la frosty
