Improvement In Chicago Service Puts
Tt In Lead of Other Cities.
(Chioapo News

Moving day" with the Chicago Tele-
phone company has been extended over
a period of weeks and will end tempo
rarily next Monday, after over LOCO
telephones have been transferred to a
new exchange just put into operation in
the Title and Trust building, at 100
Washington street. With two more
removals planned for the near future,
Chicago viii have the best, as it now
has the busiest, telephone system in
the world.
The plan is to give practically every
telephone-user in the business district
the automatic metallic circuit express
service, previously applied to 800 sub
scribers' wires. Eventually there will
be three express-service exchanges, to
be known as Central" at 100 Wash
ington street; Harrison" in the Man
haitian building, on Dearborn street,
south of Van Buren, street, and
MAN," in the telephone company
building, at Washington and Franklin
streets.
It is the changing of the network of
wires from the company's building to
the new central exchange that has de-
layed service of late, and complaints
have been numerous that the hello
girls were neglecting their duties. But
in the new exchange fifty black-gowned
young women are working, with both
hands, as we'll as with ears and voices,
to catch up with the multitudes of calls
indicated by the constant sparkle OF
tiny buttons of light. There will soon

the company, said:
Chicago has 5000 subscribers, while
New York has 25,O0O but the total calls

average is forty calls a telephone, an6
| theirs is sixteen, for business and resi-
dence lines. We handle 100000 calls q
day, which means that we put ovel

at had always been my belief that
the clam, like the oyster, was a home
slayer, growing contentedly to ma
turity in the place where he was born.
and never moving from the spot OF
his own accord said a New York
man, fond of sports with rod and gun,
but this belief was changed during my
last summers vacation in Maine I
spent several days at Sebec lake, US
ually starting on my days fishing ex-
cursionS from Greeley's landing on the
south shore. Here for a long distance
out the water is shallow, with a sandy
bottom. All over this bottom extend
ing out to where it was too deep to be
seen We're queer little burrows, such
as a man might make in sand with the
tip of a walking stick. 1 knew that
they could not have been made by cells,
which would have left sinuous tracks,
while these were straight, and l was
puzzled to explain. them. AT last
asked my bOatman, a country boy, bred
on the shores OF the lake, what caused
these burrows.
Clans he answered briefly, with
a slight tone of wonder in his voice at
my ignorance.
"'Clamsr [ repeated. You don't
mean to tell me that CLAIMS travel about
without legs or fms?
Iney DO, all the same, ana L II
show yOu,' he said, and backed water
with his oars, stopping the boat.
There's one now right under you
Il looked down into the water, and
there. at the very end of a furrow,
was a clam resting upright on one end,
head down, as L discovered by dipping
him up with my landing net. By look
ing carefully we discovered other
clans. If they were moving it was TOO
slowly for me to detect their progress,
but in every case the clam was at the
end of furrow, which he plainly had
made, standing on end, head down.
They allus travel on their heads
the boy said. They can work along
toTable fast when they've mind to-
I've known one to go the length of this
boat in a day
What's their idea in all this
balancing about on their heads?' I
asked. Where are they going any
way?'
dunno. But I guess they're
browsin' round for somethin' to eat
the boy answered, and so far as have
an opinion in the matter 1 think he
guessed right"
