Bell Telephone Company VIII Run a
Line to That Section.
WILL TAP SEVEN DEVILS
President Wallace Says the Work VIII Begin
Soon. weiser to Have Local System.

George Y. Wallace president, and
Davis S. Murray, general manager OF the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone Com
pany, spent a portion of yesterday in the
city returning on the afternoon train to
Salt Lake
The object of the visit of the telephone
officials was to look over the plans that
Architect Campbell has been preparing
for the company's new building to be con-
structed on the ''stone jug" property OPP
posite The Statesman Office. After con-
sultation it was practically agreed that
the building should be two stories and a
basement, with frontage of "a feet and
IA dept of 60 feet The building, which
will cost about $4,000, will be used exclu-
sivelY by the company. Work on the
building will be commenced as soon as
practicable.
LINE TO BUFFALO HUMP.
To Statesman reporter President
Wallace made the important announce
ment that the company intended building
a telephone line from Weiser to the Seven
Devils and from there on to the Buffalo
Hump country.
I'VE have agreed upon that extention. "
continued the president, land the work
will be begun soon. We hope to have 1T
pushed through to Buffalo Hump before
the summer is ended. Our desire is to be
the pioneer in the development of that
great SeCJlOD eAJeuulHS turouSn w dShiuS
ton and Idaho counties in SO far as our
business Is concerned. The line will be
as good as the long distance line that we
recently completed into Boise.
The line we will build will give that
country direct communication with all
the points that are especially interested,
Boise Butte Spokane. Portland and the
Sound cities"
This announcement is of the highest
importance and bears out the statements
that have been made relative to the open
ing up of the great section referred to by
President Wallace. 1t dove-tails nicely
with recent rumors concerning rallroao
construction aud the inauguration OF OF
her enterprises in the Seven Devils and al
the Hump.
The above is taken from the Boise
Statesman. Beck Jenney, of the To-
cal office of the telephone company
states that the president will be il
Weiser about the 25th of this month
to inaugurate the work. Actual con
struction of the line will begin al
soons as poles can be shipped in
The Seven Devils will be tapped b,
q branch from Council, the main lin'
continuing on to Meadows and owe
the Warren road to Warren, Florenc
and Buffalo Hump, from where con
nection may possibly be made wit
Lewiston.
WEISER TO BE WIRED.
Mr.. Jenney also states that Gener
al Manager Murray will be here mex
week to decide upon the matter
putting a local system in Weisel
The company will put instrument
into all business houses and privat
residences desired at rental of 81. 5
per month, rate at which ever
house in town can afford the service
The switch board will be located &
Jenney's drug store. 1t is some
thing badly needed and it is not like
ly the services will not be gladly tf
ken by our people.

Even with Roads Down the
Snake and up the Weiser

Col. Hart, the protector OF the
road from Huntington bridge, which
winds around the hills of the Snake
river slope to Seven Devils, is in
Weiser. Mr.. Hart has been engaged
on engineering work for road in
North Idaho, but nevertheless has
had an office open at71 Mckay block,
Portland, all winter, where he has
had four men constantly engaged in
draughting, etc. The maps have
now been completed and sent east
Mr.. Hart is very confident of the
value of the line and states that it
cannot be affected in the least by a
line down the Snake or up the Weiser.

an easy grade from the river and
taking in Mineral, the great mineral
belt below Ruthburgy the copper
properties of Wild Horse and on the
head of Sturgil Bar creek and other
places before it reaches Seven Devils,
opens up mineral belt of great pos
sibilitles which cannot be touched by
either of the other roads.

Women who have suffered severely

OBNOXIOUS CHARGE Is REMOVED.
Shippers to Chicago Relieved from
Paving Terminal Tax.

IUNINE TVrIHITlHT TUNs
CHICAGO, May 9.-Shippers Of live stock
to the Chicago market have won their case
against the railroads in the famous 50 per
car terminal charges. Judge Kohlsaat of the
United States circuit court decided today
that the levy of 50 on every car of live
stock delivered at the yards by the roads
entering the city from the west was an
unreasonable one and granted the govern
ments prayer for an injunction to restrain
the transportation companies from collect
ing it. The enjoining order was issued on
a ruling of the Interstate Commerce COM
mission that the tax was too high.
The railroad companies will be given
thirty days in which to answer the decision
or appeal the case to the next tribunal.

HAVE YOU TRIED
SWAMP proof?
THE WONDERFUL new DISCOVERY.
AS Proof Of its Marvellous Merits Every Reader Of The Bee
May Have a Sample Bottle Sent Absolutely Free BY Mail

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases Of the kid
neys and bladder than by any other disease.
For years medical science has been try
ing to discover some remedy that would
positively overcome these dangerous troubles
But not until recently was the discovery
made. DR.. Kilmer, the eminent kidney aud
bladder specialist after years of study and
research, and after test on test that never
varied in the grand result announced the
discovery of Swamp Root, which has proven
itself most wonderful cure for all diseases
of the kidneys and bladder.
The immediate symptoms and first proofs
of weak kidneys are pain or dull ache In
the back rheumatism, dizziness, headaches,
nervousness, heart trouble, pain in the
limbs. bloating sallow complexion, puffy or
dark circles under the eyes, bladder irrita-
tion, suppression of urine, obliged to pass
water often day and night, worn-out, tired
feeling, lack Of ambition.
If your water, when allowed to remain un-
disturbed in a glass or bottle for twenty
four hours, forms sediment or settling, or
has a cloudy appearance, II is evidence that
your kidneys and bladder need immediate
attention.
Swamp Root has been tested in so many
ways, in hospital work. in private practice,
Smong the helpless too poor to purchase re-
lief, and has proved so successful in every
case, that special arrangement has been
made by which all readers of The Bee who
have not already tried 1t, may have a sam

THE HEAVIEST D. 80. TRAIN.

When the receivers OF the Baltimore

series Of improvements OF the physl-
cal condition of the entire system,

cars per tyain. BA 1t was not uatil
the 18th OF March last that a demon
stration was made OF what might be
expected Of the new Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad. Enough new 50-ton capac-
ity steel cars had been delivered to
give the operating department chance
to experiment. Fifty steel cars, each
weighing $4,000 pounds, were loaded
with IN average OF $4,000 pounds OF
coal. To them was coupled a new
22x2s Inch consolidation locomotive
weighing 1Gs.7CO pounds and having
81 inch driving wheels. Tho start was
made from Cumberland. Nd. and the
destination was Brunswick. Nd, on
the second division. In his report Gen.
eral Superintendent Fitzgerald says
the train was pulled with comparative
ease and that the class Of engines used
will be able to handl. 80 cars Of 50
tons capacity each on that division
without. trouble. Hitherto the train
load on that division has been 325 units
