Show Will Not Sluy Ilouii. The engineers ou the Fairhaven and Southern railroad in Oregon have struck another natnral phenomenon only second sec-ond to "the Devil's llreadpan." Tho gap of five miles iu the track two miles beyond the boundary is a low, swampy place, which it was found necessary to pile. A forty foot pile was driven ri'ht into the swamp, and then another was driven over it. But the second pile would not stay down. As soon as the driver stopped pounding the pile began to riso again. Pound as they would the workmen could not make that pile stay down, for at every blow it seemed to cry "resiirgatn," and rose again as soon as the pounding ceased. Singleton (Cal.) Courier. |
