Another TreStle
Across the Lake,
The Goodycar's Plan.

There is excellent ground for the
belief that second trestle will be
built across Lake Pontchartraln
in the next year or two.
1t was reported yesterday that
estimates had been asked from
several contractors and timber men
on the probable cost of such a
trestle, and 1t Is evident that,
whether the building of the struc.
ture has actually been decided upon
or not, the matter is under very
serious consideration.
Those requesting the estimates
are, it is believed, acting for the
Goodyear syndicate, which owns
the East Louisiana, now kno VIZ as
the New Orleans and Great North.
ern. This road Is building up
through Mississippi, and Memphis
as its chartered objective.
AT present the Goodyear road is
using the New Orleans and North.
eastern trestle to reach the city.
1t Is believed, however, that with
their evident intention of develop
ing their line into a great trunk
system, they are figuring on enter.
ing New Orleans on their own rails
and bridge.
There are excellent reasons for
this conclusion. While the North.
eastern trestle is amply sufficient
for all present traffic demands, it is
easily conceivable that with the
great increase Of tonnage and traffic
to be created by the Goodyear line
congestion might result.
The building of the trestle will
not be as difficult nor as costly, 1t
is claimed, as it was in the days
when the Northeastern first spanned
the lake. The distance across is
lessened, and the knowledge of the
character of the lake bottom and
the experience obtained from the
building of the first trestle removes
the necessity for experiment.
The new trestle, it is understood,
will be built of much heavier tim.
bers than the Northeastern, and
will probably be of greater track
capacity than the present.
1t Is whispered that the plans of
the Goodyears include the estab.
lishment of trolley line across the
lake, with the rapid development of
the across. the-lake resorts.
This project for the new trestle
has already been forcasted, aud il
the reports that estimates on tim
bers and construction have been
asked are true, it would appear that
the realization of the plan is rot as
far in the future as had been sup.

why SUFFER FROM RHEUMATISM?

Why suffer from rheumatism when
one application of Chainberlain's Pain
Balm will relieve the pain? The quick
relief which this liniment affords makes
rest aad sleep possible, and that alone
is worth many times it's cost. Many
who have used it hoping only for short
relief from suffering have been happily
surprised to find that after awhile the
relief became permanent. Mrs. V. H..
Leggett, of Yum Yum, Tennessee, U.
S. A., writes: II am great sufferer
from Rheumatism, all over from head
to foot, and Chamberlain's Pain Balm
is the only thing that will relieve the
pain" For sale by Jos. S. Claverie,
