The building of n lallioad is a gi gantic undertaking. One day I paid a visit to thu yards of the Shoshonl extension. Mr Walker had just com pleted nn liuolce of the construction material In the yards and found It to figure up almost n half million dollars. This was simply stock on hand. For months , he had been receiving nnd sending cjut dolly thousands of dol- lais woith of nintcilal. Although the load was completed over fifty miles Cowards Shoshonl Mr. Walker said , Uuit they would need six more trainloads - loads of tics alone to complete It to Shoshonl. It Is a hundred miles from Casper to Shoshonl and lender Is sixty miles farther The laborers at- ti acted my attention The yaid men and matcilol handlers consist of the lower grades of Italians , Moravians , Greeks , Huns , Cioatlans , Bulgarians , Mnvgais , Slavs nnd llounmnlans and their ineo hatred , feuds and holidays would furnish nmtcilal for a book Every day one or the other faction or sect was having n fight or n holiday and of coin he they couldn't think of working under such interesting dis tractions. Each bet speaks a dlffeient dialect or language nnd voiy few can understand English. Woikmen of one nationality will not associate with or work with those of another nnd the difficulties of the boss who undei takes to accomplish anything with this class of labor can readily be imagined , "What are we to do ? " inquired Mr. Walker. "It is the only chibs of labor we can obtain. " These foreigners can not be used on the grade for they me the company's chemist. The doctor has an Interesting theory of the or igin of petroleum. Ho has succeeded In Isolating , from the distillation of 100 barrels of crude oil , a nitrogenous body which chemists call \lrldlno. This Is the highest member of the pyrldlno series and tha doctor main tains that Its presence In oil Is proof of the fossil and not mineral or veg etable origin of petroleum. In other words , countless thousands of great and small nnlmaltt that once inhabited the surface of the earth perished and their bodies beciimo submerged nnd distilled or rendered Into oil. "Silver OCCUIH In veins , gold Is whereon find It" Thus wrote the wise man thoiiMMidn of jenrs ago and all the theoiles of mineralogists hnxo not changed this postulate of the un dent M\RC In Wyoming gold Is found In the most lmpiobnblo formations. It occurs in Iron ore , In copper , In porphory nnd In llinc scattered all over the state nnd a systematic search Is bound to rovenl marvellously ilch deposits. Nothing in the recent hlstoiv of civlll/ntlon Is as astonishing as the rise In land values.

A prairie fire raged between Stuart and Newport , north of the Northwest ern tracks , according to Mall Clerk O. N. Stnkey , who made the trip be tween midnight and dawn. Mrs. H. C.

It is probable that a benefit theat rical enteitainment will be given In a couple of veeks In Norfolk for the purpose of raising funds for the San Francisco and California sufferers. It will likely be given In the Auditorium , with a dance following In Mnrquardt hall. hall.C. C. P.

High school boys mo anxious to se cure cadet uniforms and have made a proposition to the board of education thut they be allowed two extra credit points for four years of drill. They plan to take up collections from among the business men for their un- forms. C. B. Durland , A. Degner and J. H. Conley have finished appraising nnd dividing the Verges estate among the heirs.

They cannot ban die hoitji.- namitc and although contractors glxo good wages they are always short of workmen The track , bridges , depots , telegraph poles , tanks , wells , fences and all buildings are be ing constructed contemporaneously. ' Near Casper the government has been constructing a reservoir by build ing a dam across the North Platte. This lake when completed will have a coast line of 100 miles and will be 200 feet deep and 200 feet wide. The dam is built In the form of a semi circle with the convexity up stream. It is mitered Into both walls of the canyon and keystoned to resist pres sure. The spillway Is a tunnel cut through the canyon wall and so large that teams can bo driven through It This dam suffered great damage from the recent flood. The Salt creek oil wells between Casper nnd Shoshonl are superficial wells that have lost all their volatile properties , presum ably through ages of evaporation but are valuable for their lubricating oil , the finest In the world. This oil will stand n flro test of COO degrees fahren- holt. There nro a dozen other val uable products which have been made of commercial importance through the genius and application of Dr. Salatho , could be taken almost In any pait of Nebraska and just take a glance at Oklahoma and you will reall/.o why people are crowding to the last avail able 01 ea of public domain In the west , the Shoshonl reservation.
