TUNNEL
O. R. & N. WILL REPAIR TUN
NEIy NO. 4 AT MEACHAM.
Ilolo In the Mountain Will lie Made
Higher and Wider and Now Log
ging Will Be Put in Place Effort
Will Bo Mude to Build a Temporary
Track Around the Point of the Hill
Work or Engineer Mix In Now
Shown to Huve Been Correct.
The .- R. A N. Co. will enlarge
tunnel No. 4. a mile west of Meuchura.
The timbers and lagging In the tunnel
need tn be replaced and the hole
throiia'.i the point of the hill Is not
large enough anyway to suitably ac
commodate the big engines and high
cars that have to come Into use on the
road.
The tunnel will be made both wider
and higher, and the portuls will have
a casing of concrete and the same
material will tuke the place of tim
ber on the sides and roof of the tun
nel. When this Improvement Is com
pleted It will be of a character that Is
calculated, to lust.
An attempt has been made to build
a temporary track around the point
of the hill to be used while the work
In the tunnel Is In progreMs, but the
scheme has not yet been satisfactorily
figured out. Three or four of the
principal engineers of the company
have been at Meacham during the
past few days, looking over the situa
tion and numerous surveys have been
made, but up to the present time
there is no practical solution. In
throwing the track around the point
of the hill the curvature is too sharp
to be utilized even for temporary pur
poses.
This circumstance recalls the criti
cism offered again the work of En
glneer Mix. dow decreased, who was
the original locating engineer for the
O. R. & N. Co. In the Blue mountain
district 24 years ago.
It was stated at that time that the
Meacham tunnel was unnecessary,
and might have been obviated by fol
lowing around the hillside. While .the
old-time engineer did not foresee the
compound locomotives and tall fur
nlture cars of the present day. It
evident that In the matter of max!
mum curvature permissible In a rail
road track, he knew his business.

When is a cough more
than a cough ?
When it's a settled cold.
When it hangs on in spite of
all you can do. Cough mix
tures won't cure it because
they are merely for a cough
and this is something more.
Scott's Emulsion cures the
cough because it cures the
something more. It heals
and repairs the inflamed
tissues where the cold has
taken root and prevents its
coming back.
