He says: The growth of rag-weed in fields throughout the country revives the old aaying that the blanket of snow that will oover mother earth the coming winter will be as deep as the weeds are high. The Average height of the weeds ranges from (wo to three leet, and we may accordingly leok tor enow as deep. —The iron cylinders that yon ocoasion ■UJ see lyini; in front of a drug store oontain liquid oarbonio acid gas, and are eharged to a pressure ot 1700 pounds to the ■qoare inch.

Wm Steinhauser to B 000 feet of earth and r;ick will be ts*en out of the approaches alono. Work has been b-3- pun from both ends, and a monster stoma .-hovel, with its great steel teetn, ha> been tearing its way into one end. All the eat:n from this excavation is hauled 1 1 2 mi'r to a deep ravine toward the river. Little steam locomotives were puffing fussily about yesterday,anil I guinea idea of what the finished road will >k like. The rauae is bridged with a high ro-igh trestle, and the earth is dump d from this uunl the wood work is buried. C I. &' A. W. McDonald, the genera! contractors, have a cut 3') leet deep and 500 feet long at Brimstone Corners over half done, and the digging is being pushed wish great i.peed. Spellacy - motives are kept constantly hauling back and forth the 85 cars loaded with curlh. And siill another 20 feet deeper must be dug. One and one half miles in this cut alone will cost over SIOO,OOO. Figures cannot convey an idea of the vaatness of the work. A personal visit simply amazes those who have been read ing of the road building. The line cut through the highest point of the countr.. The .camp seems like a small city, and the bustle and activity only strengthen that impression. One of the great steaaj shovels worked lor a time yesterday. The earth for several rods before it had been loosened to a depth of 20 feet. Hides had been drilled to this depth, and powder placed to the hottom. The charge was only sufficient to increase the siza of the hole to that of a barrel. Five kegs of pow der and dj-namite were then lowered in this well, tamped and exploded. The earth lor rods was lifted ten feet in the air in. one mass. As it fell the rocks were shattered and the earth loosened. Tho steam shovel began its work. Great wagon loads were taken at one mouthful and loaded in the loDg train of cars wait ing. They were filled in e. few minutes and the little engine puSed away with them almost two miles to the big fill at. Davis run. Another train was ready for its load as soon as the first left, and it was not many minutes until more dynamiie was necessary to feed the greedy monster. Over 150 Italians are deprived of a living by its work, and its average daily duty is 1,000 yards ot earth and rock. The hig fill at Davis run is 85 fee' high and 270 feet at, tho base. Over I,sooyards of masonry have been used in the culvert already at a cost of $20,000. This tempo rary trestle is only carried out a short dis tancs, but it has proved a source of grtat danger. Only last week one of the snorting min iature engines backed over the high bridge with its train and crew. One of the brake man was killed and another probably fatal ly injured. The engineer escaped only by jumping down the steep embankment The disaster was equally as thrilling as a railroad wreck. The camp lifo at the summit and at the other locations are interesting features. All of the Itaiaus live by themselves in bachelor fashion. Some live in mud dug outs, others in tents and many iu rough board structures. All living frugally with but one ambition and hopo —that of re turning to Italy with a fortune. Some manage to live a week for 75 cents. The American live more pretentiously. At the summit they wore camped in a beau tiful irrove in neat frame dwellings erect ed by the contractors They live well are happy and tho caterer ( f the camp, Jim Noss, is their guardiaD angel. 1 did not see a woman ia one of the camps nor a child. It is a great village of bachelors. Every comfort and convenience is fur nished on the summit. It costs the con tractors $lO a day for water alone and $25 more for fuel, but.'hey have each in aband ance. An abandoned oil well was leased, and the water pumped from this to large reservoir tanks. Each camp has its company store, op erated by the contractor, and a black smith's forgo is kept busily running. At the summit A. W. McDonald keeps his blooded horses, >wo cows and everything that will cater to his enjr.yment. It is an ideal out door summer life. Two contractor have the last 14 miles of the road, and both are rushing ahead. Breon & Butler have four miles of work of 175,000' cubic yards, and keep 100 men employed. At the Butler end the Fergu son Contracting Company has 10 miles, with 500,000 y ards of excavation. Over 500 men are at work, and the place is more than half done. Every employment is at hand. Although cut up by trestles and tills, it is now looking as if this strip would be finished first. The scenery along tho route was grand. The loaves were ju»t turning yesterday, and the wild country added beauty. I saw but few places suitable for village sites This will probably be just to Chairman Reed's liking. He wants freight exclusive ly. Tho lino was either above 01* below grade for the first 14 miles, but at the summit the location is admirable. The country is flat and rooling, and the land rich. It was tho prettiest place on the entire line. The grade is wonderfully low for the hilly country. It will doubtless startla those who have claimed success for the road impossible, It can scarce be sur passed lor last, through freight service and Pittsburg may expect a revolution iu Ireight rates on its completion.
