TO UNITE TWO CONTINENTS
. dous‘Prjjject Which Is ApparentThe time is approaching, and will come sooner than most people expect, when it will be possible to travel in: comfort by rail from New York, Chi-| cago or San Francisco to Brazil, Santiago or Buenos Aires, by the PanAmerican raflroad. This great north and south line is a stupendous project, observes the Scientific American Magazine, ree : : The scheme in its entirety Involves large figures and heavy costs, the total length of the line being 10,116 miles, which is not so very far short of the combined length of the three shortest of. our transcontinental systems. It should be understood that the emterprise does not, and never did, cortemplate the building of an entirely new ‘system of that length; for much of the. route is made up of already. existing stretches of national rallroads. Taking New York as a starting point, the line runs to the Mexican frontier, and from thence through Mexico, Guatemala, | Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rico, 'Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Argentina, to Buenos Alres, - ; o Even today it is possible to travel by railroad from New York to the frontier of Guatemala; but from Guatemala to the Canal zone over half of the line has yet to be built. The longest stretch of uncompleted line is from the Canal zone to the boundary line between Peru and Bolivia, where, out of a total of 3,362 miles, only 542 miles have been completed. Also there {s-a stretchiof 127 miles in Bolivia on which work has recently been commenced. - The line from Bolivia to Buenos Aires, a distance of 1,060 miles, has been completed. To date 6,500 l miles out of a total of 10,116 miles have been built. e
GREEN DYE FROM CORN COBS
Sclence Has Added Another Achieve- " ment. to Its Record in Use of * ¢ Raw Material,
Science has found a way of utilizing all corn cobs, short or long, in the manufacture of various chemicals. As the corn cob consists of cellulose, which is valuable for making many products, such as celluleid and paper, it is considered desirable to save the substance of the cob. The furfural therefore, 1s taken from the extract which is obtained by boiling the cob in water and the cellulose can thus be kept for other purposes. This liquid is employed for many purposes in industrial chemistry, and can be so treated that it will yleld a bright green dye, which 18 much liked by women of fashion, says the Detroit News, e ; . ' Mote and Beam. Senator Moses, apropos of a certain monopoly, sald at a dinner in Washington : e | “I am no muckraker. Have you ever noticed that muckrakers as a rule are slightly incrusted with muck? “A politician was taking a swim the other day in. the swimming pool of a big ocean liner. A great New York society lady—one of those well-pre-served society ladies, with golden hair, four divorces and a platinum removable bridge—well, this lady was taking a swim, too, and she soon had the pol itician engaged in talk, Sitting beside ‘him on the marble rim of the pool, she gave politics the very old deuce. _*‘Politics are man-managed,’ she ended, swinging her legs girlishly in the water, ‘abd every man has his price. He lets the world know it; too." “The politiclan glanced sidewise at the soclety lady in her ultra bathing dress. Then he said: 0 5 “‘Well, every woman has her figure, and she doesn’t mind letting the world see it, either.’” : S o
Rare Event Put on Record.
At Fifteenth and I streets one afternoon last week an old gentleman driving a new car got stage fright when his car got stuck in the middle of the street, L e He Jammed at thiz and pulled on that, but the car refused to budge. Behind him the cars began to pile up. in front and in rear and to the sider motorists took cognizance of him. _ His eyes popped from his head. He wore a strained look, as if he would like to have sunk through his car and into the earth beneath. He plainly was rattled. : And, strange to state, not a motorist hollered at him. Nobody “cussed” him. . Nobody laughed. ' Everybody seemed to be sympathetic. And when the man's car finally got under way, relieving the trafic jam, everybody seemed tremendously happy. . . - Yep, such cases do happen.—Wash-
