TELEPHONE SERVICE EXTENDED
IDAHO REACHED BY BELL COM
PANY DURING 1898.
Further Extensions of Great Value to
Utah Promised For 1S99-Benefts
Already Perceptible.

The extension of the lines Of the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone COM
pany during the year 1898. from Utah
into Idaho, connecting up Pocatello.
Idaho Falls and all towns in between
is of great Importance to the business
interests of Utah. because OF the closer
touch brought about by personal COM
munication etween business men OF
the important tOWnS in eastern ldahc
and Utah business men, thereby en-
couraging acquaintanceship between
them, and naturally fostering business
relations
The establishment Of an exchange at
Pocatello, with telephones in all of the
business houses. enables h business
mar of Ogden or Sail Lake to talk from
his own place of business to his cor
respondent in his Office at POcatello. IN
the same way that ne would talk TO
another man in the same city with
him; the connection between the Two
telephones being made in the same
manner that a local connection is made.
the only difference being that a longer
line stretches between.
The continuation of the line from
Idaho Falls to Montana is already ar
ranged for, and the material is now
being ordered. This extension viii Be
completed during the first half Of he
year 1888, WHEu dill Oldh POAA-0 80
placed in direct communication WITH
all towns in Montana and the Occur
d'Alene country, Spokane and the coast
cities
Another Improvement promised Tor
the year 1899 is a special pair OF wires
20 Mercur, and a special pair OF wires
to Tintic: these two mining districts
are now using the same two wires. and
the increase in business has become
too great for them. This addition viii
be made as soon as the weather viii
permit.
In the early part of the year 1898. a
was sent through SanDete
and Sewer valleys. to determine the
desirability of a line extending through
those valleys, along to Marysyale; and.
while great announcement was not
met with at the time. the matter IS stu
being considered, and it IS hoped n
when taken up again. the citizens OF
the districts through which the line IS
projected will offer sufficient ercN1r-
for the proposition TO mater
ialize-
The Importance to the business inter-
ests of the state, in having the Varlous
districts and farming cQmmuni-
ties and business centers. tied to@etner
by one system of telephone lines. can
not be over-estimated. and has Decome
very great. 1t is recognized by the
company, n this policy IS
being gradually followed up. until, II IS
hoped, that finally all the varied inter
ests OF the state viii be embraced In
one completed telephone system.

PROGRESS OF WOnENS CLUBS.
The Federation and Inauguration Of the Travelling Library
Plan.
Plan.

In the past few years the Utah Fed
GRAFTON of Women's clubs has become
an organization of which all may well
feel proud. 1t was organized in 1898.
Utah being the second state to federate,
and since that time its growth has been
steady and most encouraging to club
workers.
Our Utah women work along different
lines from those of other states. For
instance, in the east there are libra
ries within easy reach of all, while
here there are only a few of the cities
that have libraries at all. So that I'M
der existing circumstances out-of-town
club women found themselves handi-
capped in their work to such an extent
as to seriously retard their progress.
From this great need has sprung the
travelling library. 1t was organized
one year ago, with a committee COM
posed of Mrs. C. D. Moore, chairman;
Mrs. William Igleheart, Miss Julia
F~arnsworth, both of Salt Lake; Mrs.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1899-01-01

pathy between teacher and pupil and
exciting interest in humanitarian work.
In connection with the educational
work it is hoped hat all clubs will
use their influence to get a bill passed
which Will be introduced into the legiS-
lature to get free kindergartens.
The resolutions of the educational
committee of the Utah Federation have
been acted upon by the Vermont
Federation and a glowing tribute paid
to them in the last publication of the
Club Woman of Boston.
In connection with the federation,
there is also the Council of Clubs
which is composed Of the president OF
each club, and n representative.
At the meetings all matters of local
interest are discussed, and measures of
reform introduced. During the past
year the committee introduced into
the city council resolutions for keeping
sidewalks clean and for pruning and
planting trees. both of which were
foot to create a sentiment that will
cause the city to cover the patrol
wagon and there will also be a crusade
waged against the cigarette habit in
the public schools. or this committee,
Mrs. Mary Gilmer of the Woman's
club. is chairman.
All in all the growth of the Fedora
ton is most encouraging. Ten new
clubs have been admitted within the
past year and one recently organized
in Brigham City has just applied for
admission. This will make a total of
twenty-seven clubs in the Utah Fedora
ton.
The officers are Mrs. William Jen-
nings, Salt Lake, president; Mrs. John
Fletcher, Ogden, vice president; Mrs.
c. S. Kinney, Salt Lake, recording
secretary; Mrs. w. w. Ritter, Salt
Lake, recording secretary; Mrs. E. E.
Corfman, Provo, treasurer; Mrs. Mary
F. Allen, Park City, state organizer;
Mrs. Beulah Bachman, Provo, auditor.
The next meeting of the Federation
will occur in October, when new Of
fcers will be elected. 1t is expected
that Mrs. Lowe of Georgia, president
of he National Federation will, during
that time. be the guest of the Utah
Federation.

greater than the supply.
Each library is sent out in a box
made of solid oak, grooved together.
They are three feet long, twenty-five
inches high and ten inches deep, with
the inscription on a brass plate sunk
in black letters on the top and front.
The three libraries now out will re-
turn from their first trip the first of
February, and already the people in
the different localities all over the
state are clamoring for a visit from
the travelling library.
Another new and interesting feature
of the Federation is the work being
done by the state educational com
mittee. The members are Mrs. Nc
Wicker, Mrs. A. 3. Greeson and Miss A.

STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY.
Doctors of Utah Have a Strong Pro-
fessional Union.

The Utah State Medical society was
organized and incorporated under the
laws of Utah in 1895, for purely scien-
tific and social purposes. 1t has for its
object 1.-The encouragement of the as
ISOLATION of members of the medical
profession upon the basis of good fell

TRIED TO ESCAPE.
Constable KiIlmer Was too Cute
for TillesOn.
A Two Mile Race Across Country, and
Then Pried the Grazing From His
Prison House.

Constable Barney Killmer, of Amboy
came to the city this afternoon with
Sumner Tilleson, a young half-breed
from st. Clair, whom he placed in the
county Jail to serve sentence of fifteen
days, for assaulting Albert Jacob, a II
year old boy.
The assault was committed yesterday
afternoon, and Mr. Killmer drove out into
the country, and, when mile and half
from Amboy, overlook Tilleson, who was
riding with farmer, The constable told
Tilleson to get into his buggy as he had a
warrant for him. Tilleson pretended to
obey, but as soon as he had gotten out
of the farmers wagon he ran around
the horses heads and started across a
field for the woods. The const able
drove after the young culprit until he
came to barbed wire fence, and then
had to get out and tie his horses A
chase across the country for two miles
on foot then ensued Mr. Killmer
finally came up with Tilleson in
a slough, and found the young
man lying fiat on the ground in
the grass, trying to hide.
Tilleson was placed in the village
lookup last evening, at shortly after
o'clock, and Mr.. Killmer went to see
that he was all right at 10 o'clock last
night. During the time that he had
been incarcerated, Tilleson had sue
ceeded in getting out of his cell, and
had gotten his hand through the graf
ing of the window and with a three
inch staple had pried off eight burrs,
nearly enough to remove the grating.
Constable Killmer then shackled Tile
sons feet and he gave no more trouble.
When Tilleson was taken before the
justice he was told that he could pay
So 60 or go to Jail for fifteen days. Til
Lesson asked the justice whether he
