The improvements on the lines of
the Citizens Light and Traction com.
pany are being pushed with all haste
and the entire service will be in fine
condition within a few weeks.
The fair grounds loop is completed
almost to Marion square and the new
track will reach State street within
10 days. Very few people realize the
great change in that branch of the
road until they take trip over it.
The grade has been leveled and with
the fine new rails and heavy ties the
cars glide along without the slightest
jar.
The new offices and car barn in the
building south of the Willamette ho-
tel will be ready for occupancy Sat.
urday and on Monday morning the
headquarters will be established
there. 1t may be several days later
before the barn is completed, but in
short time the company will have
everything under one roof. The front
part of the building will be used for
offices and waiting rooms.
Manager Welch and his corps of
able assistants will occupy nicely ar
ranged rooms on the south side of the
building The general ticket office
of the company will be convenient
for the travelling public and a wait
ing room fitted with chairs and bench
es will be placed at their disposal.
In the north east corner the motor
men and conductors will have quarters
where they can rest and be protected
from the elements in summer and win

The company has installed a tele-
phone system the entire length of
their lines and hereafter when a car
reaches the end of division the con-
ductor must report in to the head
Office. Delays must be accounted for
and under this order cars will run on
time.
The penitentiary-asylum loop will
be built as soon as the right of way is
settled with the state board, which
will probably be within a snort time.
This will give the people along those
lines much better service than they
now enjoy
The Mill creek bridge on south

of the old decayed ones, and the
bridge will be in perfect order when

"Delahanty, who was wealthy

delirium tremens. He was attended
by DR.. McCorkle and a few hours be-
fore his death signed will, clause
of which bequeathed to Louise Nc
Corkle the physicians S-year.old
daughter, $4,000.
THE document was written on the
doctors letter paper, and ne was
named executor. The fact that De-
lahanty was a cold-hearted man and
had never shown the little girl any at
tentions caused suspicion and the two
witnesses to the will did some un-
necessary talking, causing a scandal
which was followed by DR.. McCor-
kle's hurried departure
u. w. Goodbody, probate Judge OF
Cochise county, refused to probate
the will, and an official investigation
of the circums' ances of Delahanty's
death will be made"
A report from Woodburn, where DR..
McCorkle formerly resided, says that
he passed through that city this week
on his way north, telling a friend at
the depot that his wife was sick.
