GREAT TUNNEL
IS COMPLETED
THE FAMOUS SYMPTOM is PUT
THROUGH UNDER THE
ALPS.

Gonda Switzerland, Feb. 24-The
boring operations of the Simplon tuu-
mel were completed early this morn
ing, the event being celebrated
through Switzerland by booming can
non and public gatherings. Work up
on the tunnel which connects Swift
erland with Italy began in 1898. Many
unexpected obstacles were encounter
ed, the most serious being hot springs,
which threatened to wreck the whole
enterprise, and a temperature which
at one time rose to 131 degrees Fab
renheit, making a continuance Of the
work impossible until the engineers
found means of cooling the atmos-
phere.
Now that the borers have met, it
will enable the water accumulated in
the north gallery to be drawn off.
The work of preparing the tunnel
for permanent railway will be rush
ed as rapidly as possible, and it is hop
ed to inaugurate the tunnel about
March 20.
A Great Feat.
The piercing of the Simplon is re.
garded as being one of the greatest
engineering achievements of the age.
The length of the tunnel from Briga
in Switzerland, to Iselle, on the Ital
ian side of the mountain, is about Il
miles.
Work was begun over seven years
ago, and, according to the contract
the tunnel must be ready for traffic
on May Is, next. The Swiss and Ital
ian governments jointly financed the
undertaking and share alike in the
cost of $15,000,O0O. AS soon as the
boring is thoroughly completed and
the track laid, a smaller tunnel is tc
be constructed parallel to the large
one, which will be Increased in size
SO as to permit of traffic both ways
at the same time.

LEIPER'S BILL
GOESTHROUGH
AN INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM
MEASURE Is PASSED ~ THE
HOUSE.

Helena. Feb. 25.-Yesterday can
truthfully be called a strenuous day
in the house. After four unsuccess.
full attempts to get together on an
initiative and referendum measure,
the lower body yesterday, without a
dissenting vote. passed the bill intro
duced few days ago by Leiper. The
bill did not meet the approval of all
who voted for it, but those who did
not like it said they did so because
it was better than nothing, and it was
so near the end Of the session that If
the one under consideration was not
passed there would be none that would
60. through.
It. was thought there would be a
fight on the question of concurrence
in the senate amendments to the rail.
road commission bill. But while there
was some talk, there was little action
and the house swallowed the senate
dose by vote Of Sc to II, the mega
tive votes all being cast by Demo
Gratis.
Then, to wind up the day of siren
uous doings the house attempted t
pass the bill creating the Thirteenth
judicial district, with F.. H. HathorI
as judge, over the veto of Governor
Toole, and it failed. those voting Il
sustain the veto numbering 80 ant
those against the governor SO, con
siderably less than the requisite two
thirds.
OF the less important measures, tina
to reimburse dairymen whose animals
were killed under orders of the boart
of milk and meat inspection, was th,
cause of the largest amount of debate
The appropriations committee recon
mended that the owners be paid a
the rate of $25 head. The house re
fused to accede to the suggestion, ant
increased the appropriation from So
900 to $4,000.

Reno, Feb. 24.-On the fist ballot
today the general assembly at Carson
defeated the anti-gambling bill.
The vote was a decisive one, and
no effort was made either to amend
or add to the measure. This is prob
ably the first instance in which an
anti-gambling measure has ever been
entirely defeated in the country. The
church people of the state made de-
termined fight for the measure, but
met with stubborn opposition.

Wilson is one of the conspicuous VIC
tins Ct the persistent social gossips.
Mr.. Wilson lost his wife some Ii years
ago, sRd it is doubtful IL he has ever
given q single thought to q remarriage.
This does not prevent the periodical
appearance Of the newspaper para
graph stating that the secretary II
about 70 marry q lady who Is various
ly described as q school teacher In mis-
own state Of Iowa, . middle-aged clerk
In his department, or Q charming Wild
oW in society.
Mr.. Wilson has long since given up
the idea of suppressing this sort OF
gossip. and has resigned himself to the
fate OF being talked about, no matter
how distasteful it is. The fact is, the
secretary Ii too busy with the Affairs
of his department, and his mind Ii 20
engrossed with plans for the advance
ment Of agriculture and the betterment
of the condition Of farmers, that he
has little or no tine to give to the
lighter and more personal anairs OF
life. He is more diligent in seeking an.
effective enemy Of the boil weevil or in
the incubation Of sails to make them
more productive than he IL In the fair
sex or in the quest of q wife.
Attorney General Moody, the baehe-
lor member Of the presidents cabinet,
Is another target for Dame humors
shafts. Mr.. Moody has been too busy
all his life building UP . reputation In
the law to give much thought to seek
ing a partner for life. The accommo-
dating social sossips Of the city, how
ever, have settled his fate for him, II
they are to be believed. and have him
engaged to marry q charming widow
in Boston, who is conducting q very
prosperous millinery establishment.
Ihey declare that the lady, highly edu-
Gated and charming a. she Is, cares
nothing for society. and Ii particularly
Indifferent to oficial society, ano
therefore has declined to become Mrs.
Moody a. long as Mr.. Moody remains
in the government service. When ne
retires, however, it is declared that
one Of his first moves will be to take
the Boston widow into partnership fol
life and then enter upon the pracdce
of law at the Hub.
