Central Union Telephone Company VIII be
In New Building Next week.
The Central Union Telephone COM
pany is nearing the goal it has long
been striving for and which the peo-
pie of Rock Island have long been
waiting for, viz: the completion OF
its new exchange in it's new building.
The work is practically ready for the
cut-over, which will occur some night
next week.
The immense amount of detail work
necessary in Job of this kind can
hardly be appreciated by the compa-
ny's patrons. The new switch
boards have to be all set up and tested,
the lines have all to be run int the
new office, ended on a terminal board
and trunked over to the old office so
that service can be continued there.
Every subscribers station has to
be equipped with condenser" so
that it will work on the old boards as
well as the new. When all is ready
the little gap between the line and
the new switch board will be closed
with a heat coil. the temporary
trunk lines to the old office cut and
service will be continued from the
new office with scarcely an apprecia-
BILE interruption.
This cut-over being accomplished,
every subscribe will have to be Wis
tied again and the new common bat
terry instruments installed.
All this being accom- plished, and
the operators becoming familiar with
the slightly different arrangement
and style of operation, we are prom
ised telephone service that will leave
nothing to be desired.

At meeting of representative
business men and citizens (between
30 and 40 present. held at the Office
of g. A, Hays, Feb. 3rd, for the
purpose of calling out suitable men,

tion of past two years-the follow
ing business was transacted:
By unanimous vote f. w. Mul-
lins was called to the chair, and W.
Fl. Booth as secretary.
On motion following committee
was selected to suggest to the meet
ing, suitable men to run in the pri-
mary, for the offices named G. A,

The following resolution was read
by G. A. Hays, and, on motion

been such that the expenditures
have been limited, aud the city debt
has been reduced, so that we may
safely predict that the continua-

debt and enable the city to make

tion, and commend the same to the
careful consideration Of the incom-
ing administration.

Sand Washed Onto Railway Tracks
DELAYED Traffic.

The very heavy rain storm Tuesday
aftrnoon did considerable damage to
the streets in this city, and also delay
ed street car traffic on some of the
lines by washing sand onto the tracks.
Sand was washed onto the tracks
of n. o. L. company on portions of
West Exchange ST., Case ave, and at
the junction, between Akron and Guy

time to shovel the sand off the tracks.
Sand was washed onto the tracks
of the A. & G. +. Il. r. company, on
Furnace St, causing delay in the sched-
ule.
Washouts were made in several of
the streets. The holes were, in some
instances, three and four feet deep,
and quite large. The street gang work
ed all night making repairs, and lights
were kept at the .washouts.
Washouts were located as follows:
On North Howard ST., above Glen
