known an the "Veazle road.” nnd the
track wan made of wooden rails
strapped with Iron. The shackles used
to connect the engine and cars were
made of three thicknesses of sole or
belt leather held together by copper
rivets and had a hole In each end so as
to hook over an upright stationary pin
bolted or driven into a rigid beam ex-
tending from the end of the car. It is
said that for a time the engine was run
In opposition to a six ox team em-

was not willing to pay the rates
charged on the railroad and It was
not until the managenieut of the line

There is but one Grand canyon. The
name should never bnve been given to
lesser gorges. The very fact that there
Is a so called Grand canyon in Colora-
do is misleading. “The Grand canyon
of Colorado” docs not sound much dif-
ferent from "the Grand canyon of the
Colorado?’ Hence many people con
fuse them.
The canyon of the Colorado river
which flows through Arlcona forms
the boundary line between that territo-
ry and California and then empties
Into the gulf of California.
It Is the grandest gorge In the world
tn it 3.000 of the wonderful gorges of
the state of Colorado could be buried.

have never yet been explored It would
