Miles of Freight Tunnels Built and
Extensions Projected.
Far below the surface Of Chicago's
streets scores of electric locomotives
are pulling freight trains that are tax
ing thousands of tons of coal into the
boiler rooms Of skyscrapers without
dirt. noise or sign of effort in the street
says a writer in the Scientific Ameri-
can. They are removing tons of ashes
and caring for the excavations from
the Easements of buildings in course
of construction. More than this, they
are hauling daily many thousands Of
tons Of freight which was formerly
carried over the pavements in wagons.
On Feb Is. 1905. the company entered
into a contract with the government
under which all of ChicagO's second.
third and fourth class mail matter will
be transferred from the railway sta
tions TO the new pOstoffice through the
tunnels.
A further plan to utilize the tunnel
for mail purposes involves the building
Of chutes connecting the street corner
mail boxes with boxes I'm the tunnel,
where the mail can be collected by
cars. When the new schemes are per
fected and added to the present pneu
matte tube service for first class mail
Chicago will have the most perfect un'
derground mail facilities in the world
Eight hundred and eighty tons of mai
will be handled in the tunnels daily IN
special locked United States cars. The
system will be in operation by June 1.
Without noise. dirt, smoke or the
slightest delay to traffic the centra

BIG BIDS FOR DANTE's DUST
Mrs. Jack Gardner Goes Over Pier
pont MOrgan's Offer of $4,000.

Mrs. Jack Gardner Goes over Pier
pont MorEan's OFFER of $4,000.
J. Pierpont Morgan and Mrs. Jack
Gardner are hungrily watching one an
others efforts to buy from Count Cos
tareni of Mount Auburn street, Cam
brldge-husband of the famous Maude
Murray, to whom fortune gave brains,
beauty and wealth-his fistful Of dust
that once was part Of the flesh and
bone Of the poet Dante, says a Boston
special dispatch 20 the New York Press.
The treasure consists Of a laurel leaf
from the bronze crown which encir-
cled the brow Of Dante when he was
carried to his last resting place and
some Of the dust of the poet taken
from the tomb thirty years ago, when
the ashes were removed from Ravenna
TO Florence.
This composite relic was considered
50 priceless that it was sealed in a gold
case and placed in a strong vault Of
Costareln castle, in Sicily, with the
idea that it would remain forever a
family heirloom unless the Italian gov
ernment desired TO acquire It. Recent
". however, its fame led to such tempt
ing offers for its purchase that Count
Costarell, who represents the family,
has been induced TO consider them.
The contest has narrowed down to
Mrs. Gardner, who is said to want the
relic for her italian palace. and Mr.
Morgan, who has spent enormous sums
In the past few years on art treasures.
Mr.. Morgan's offer is understood to
have been $4,000. and Mrs. Gardner is
willing to improve on this to the ex-
tent of a few thousands. There is a
feeling among art lovers IN Boston that
the relic will find its way to the palace

Pills. and states his opinion of them as

can recommend them highly. they did
for me what everything else failed to
do. They drove the ache out of my
back and relieved OF misery fro NJ
which [ had been suffering for long
time. The trouble was a constar
heavy ache right across the small of my
back, and disorder of the kidneys.
The secretions were in bad condition
being dark, full of sediment and irreg-
ular Medicines for internal use failed
to help me and so did liniments. Tread

Kidney pills, and deciding to try them,

THAT BALE is HERE
BIG PRICE is PAID.
Americas Has Received Bale
Cotton.
20 CENTS is THE ROUND PRICE
o. 3. Cu'pepper Has the Honor Of
Marketing First Bale In AmerIcus.
Weighed by L. C. Council and Sold
to c. j. White at 20 Cents.

Americus first cotton bale of the new
crop was received at 3 O'Clock yester~
day afternoon, it's arrival being made
an occasion of interest among the local
cotton fraternity who for week past
had snxiously expec ted this first bale
of the crop of 1866.
The bale was grown by Mr.. d. B,
Culpepper, an enterprising farmer | "
ing near Coney.
The bale was brought to Mr.. L. q.
Councils warehouse, and quickly at
tracted the attention of local cotton
men as we'll as others who watched for
the advent of the "first bale"
The cotton was of good quality, aud
the bale was sold to Mr.. O. j. White
at 20 cents per pound, possibly tie
highest fl cure commended by o first
bale here ia many seasons. This is the
fifth bale of the new crop received in
Georgia to date.
And the first bale received here in
July in many years.
It beat last years record on first
bales by only three days, but in con-
test of this kind three days count for
quite good deal.
Last season the first bale for Ameri-
Gus, and the fourth one in the state,
was marketed on August End. It was
grown by Mr.. j. L. Ohambliss and
shipped at once to Augusta, where
it was sold at auction for 1879 cents.
Mr.. Arthur RyIander marketed last
season at Divers Warehouse the SEQ
ond "new bale" of the 1904 crop. This
bale weighed 512 lbs, and like the first
one, brought good price,.
The Chambliss bale weighed 53S lbs,
and Melted more than $40.
As a rule Americas first bale ar
rives about August 10th or 18th, and
conse quently last seasons first bale,
as that of yesterday, arrived consider
bly, ahead of schedule. There is much
cotton open in Sumter, and our first
bale might have come week ago.
But it is here now all right, the
fifth one in the state, and Americus is
in line with the first balers.
Americus Gets Second Bale. n
Mr.. Cliff @. Clay, one of Sumter's
progressive young farmers, was vary
close second on the first bale, landing
his three hours later.
Just at o'clock Mr.. CIay's wagon,
drawn by four fue mules, drove up to
divers Warehouse with the second
bale of the new crop, but the first Sum
ter county bale, This bale weighed
443 pounds, bat arrived too late to be
sold yesterday.
The bale is of excellent quality and
will bring good price if offered this
morning,
