The Strongest Fence

THAT IS ALL THERE IS TO ELLWOOD FENCE-

Heavy steel cables lapped about and held together by steel wire, forming uniform meshes. Simple, isn't it? No chance for weakness in any part uniformly strong. The reasons for the superiority of ELLWOOD FENCE are not hard to find. This company owns and operates its own iron mines and furnaces its own wire mills and six large fence factories—either one of the six being larger than any other fence factory in the world. These facts should be convincing. *x,,

—THE HEW RAILROAD.

Surveyors Busy on the Indianapolis & New Castle Railroad.

New Castle Democrat.

A corps of engineers have been busy the past week surveying a line for the Indianapolis & New Castle electric line across the Blue River bottom. The route now proposed leaves the Big Four on the Rogers' farm two miles southwest of town, goes down the ravine south of Oliver Mendenhall's house and then northeast across the bottom. It strikes the free pike a^ few rods north of the house ©n Saffell's farm and entering Race street north of the Elliott homestead.

The construction offices have been moved here from Indianapolis and have been quartered in the Philips' building. The only problem now seems to be the location of the route across the valley, and this will be decided on in a very few days, if has not already been done. Builders of electric roads have a way of going to work without announcing the fact in advance as New Castle knows from experience. Nobody need be surprised to get out some morning and see a big gang of men and teams throwing dirt. The fact the offices have been established here and that men are at work clearing the right of way is pretty good evidence that the road will be built and in operation within the next year..

1st—Each horizontal extension of the ELL* WOOD is a steel cable, consisting of two heavy wires intertwined.

2d—Each of these cables is tied to each other cable by a continuous heavy wire lapped tightly about every cable—not tied in a crooked "knot" or twist to weaken the strength of the tie wire at the bending point. (Wrap a wire around your finger and the wire is not weakened: tie a
