The friends of the Cumberland
Telephone Company in Nashville
have succeeded in postponing the
second reading of the new Home
Telephone Company's ordinance
since April 18th. 1t is now set for
the oath, but the dilatory tactics may
cause still further postponement.
Junketing trips to neighboring cities
have been going on for some weeks,
ostensibly to inspect telephone
plants, but they have been carried to
such an extent that they seem to be
part of well developed policy of
procrastination At the last council
meeting, says the American
Mr.. Mulloy introduced a resolu-
ton asking that committee Of five
be appointed to confer with the Of
ficials of the Cumberland Telephone
Company to see what arrangements
could be made relative to a reduc-
ton of rates for period of twenty
five years. The resolution passed
and the following committee was
appointed: James Mulloy, chair
man; August Schardt, Alex R. Err
win, VIM. Campbell and Chris
Power" This is the same scheme
worked in this city when the Cumber-
land was trying to keep out compe
tition. When competition comes,
as it must come sooner or later in
there will follow lower
rates, improved service, politeness
Of officials and other advantages that
are enjoyed by cities favored with
more than one system. The Cum
berland company will not give up i
the Nashville monopoly without
struggle and from now until the
ordinance is finally passed, it would
be wise for the friends of the Home
to keep both eyes open. If
it ever gets to the people, as the
Tennessee law requires, the result
will be settled in advance. Know
ing this, the Cumberland company
may be expected to interpose
every obstacle possible to keep it |
from reaching a popular vote.

Christ never breaks his word. He
would no more break it with US than
YOU would Intentionally break a prom
ise made with your little child. Many
years ago the Duke of Wellington was
crossing one Of the London bridges
with his little son. He placed him IN
certain seat and said: Now wait here,
my boy. until ! come back l have
very important errand l wish to do,
and then l viii come and get YOU
After the errand the duke forgot all
about his son. But late in the after
noon he remembered what he had done
and the promise he had made. The
anxious father hurried back to the
bridge. and there he found his boy.
Were you tired, my sOnf Why did
you wait SO patientlyT We'll, said
the boy i got tired, father, but l wait
ed because l knew you would come.
You have never yet broken Il promise
you made with me-" The duke may
have forgotten his promise that he
would returnNso his son, but our Christ
will never break the promise he has
made to his children. He is coming.
He is surely coming He has promised
that he will come to claim his own.

When Christ shall come TO earth the

GILDUFF A HUMAN BIRD.
WaIla WaIIa Timer Does Remarkable
Aerial Stunt.

Has a slate rOOfer more lives than
cat? What follows would almost go
to prove that he has. Lew Burroughs,
foreman of the manufacturing depart
ment of the Drumheller company, has
at present a workman on mis- staff by
the name of J. w. Gilduff Mr.. Gil
duff is an expert slate roofer who has
displayed his handiwork on buildings
in all parts of the country. Last sum-
mer in Portland he was doing stunts
on the roof of the Portland hotel when
some of his tackle slipped and ne was
hurled a distance of IS feet to the
ground. So far as Mr.. Gilduff was
concerned his fall was a case of "never
touched me- for he landed on an emp
.ty barrel, rebOunded in the air some
ten feet and finally landed on the sod
as gently as man falling into ham,
mock and none the worse for his flight
of So feet through space. Mr.. Gilduff's
experience proves that the jump from
any given height is easy enough il
your landing calculations have beer
figured ahead and work according to
schedule

DOLLAR FOR COLD LUNCH.
Surprises Old Engineer Years Afte,
He PurIoined Contents of Tin Pail.

PITTSBURG, Dec. 4-One thousand
dollars is the price Andrew Carnegie
has just paid for a cold lunch which
he purloined from an engineer and
ate in a locomotive cab. The money
reached Fred F1eck, a retired Pennsyl-
vania engineer, at time when it was
sorely needed.
In a personal letter to Fleck in
closing his check Mr.. Carnegie refers
to ride he had in Fleck's locomotive
during a visit to Pittsburg several
years ago. Mr.. Carnegie had known
Fleck slightly, and, desiring to take
a ride in the cab of a locomotive he
climbed on board F'lecks train. The
steel man got hungry and rooted about
the cab until he found dinnerpail
Without asking any questions he
opened it and ate like a schoolboy,
and seemed sorry when all the lunch
was gone.
That lunch belonged to Fleck, but
he made no complaint, and Mr.. Carne-
gle mas not forgotten. He sent the
check, not as a charity, but as pay
ment for the lunch.

MUST KEEP "LID" ON TOWN.
Cannot Buy Land Without Taking the
Pledge Against Liquor.

CUZCO, Ind, Nov. 27.-No mayor
or governor need trouble himself about
putting on the lid" at Cuzco, for the
such a restriction.
The little community is strictly
Temperance town." and the indica-
tons are that it will remain such for
it's founder, w. H. Nicholson, has
caused to be placed in every deed to
Cuzco property an irOn-clad provision
that prohibits the sale of any intoxi-
eating liquors on any Of the land. Mr..
Nicholson purposes that the place
which he has founded shall never be
tainted by the curse of drink and his
slogan is:
If l cannot have a town without a
saloon, do not want one at ALL"
the fame of the new town and its
founder has gone abroad and with at
tention thus attracted to it has come
wonder as to the oddly of the name
of the village. Behind this there is a
story. When the question of a name
arose people suggested Union VAL
ley as an appropriate cognomen for
their postoffice, owing to the fact that
they had formed themselves into a
union to see that the laws were obeyed
and the community kept free from dis
repute. But the authorities at Wash
ington informed the citizens that there
was already one Union Valley in Indi-
ana.
1t was tnen that the village school
master took up the question and pre-
sented it to his pupils They had the
word Cuzco in their spelling lesson oYI
the day in question and the oddly of
it had led to inquiry, which brought
out the story of the founding of the
city of Cuzco in South America by
Nance Capac, child of the sun.
This was the name for the town
where Mr.. Nicholson hoped to estab-
lisn an empire of temperance that
would spread over the United States
There was no other name in Indiana
like this.
AS town, it is hardly large enough
to be listed in the "gazetteers, but it
is growing and is soon to have a rail-
road. It's citizens have caught the
spirit Of its peculiar features
Mr.. Nicholson is about As years old,
| widower and the father of two
daughters, one of whom is married
He is the son Of Joseph H. and Eliza
! beth Nicholson and a distant relative
OF the author of the Nicholson liquor
law, which mas worked wonders in
Indiana. His firm jaw, open counte-
nance and determined expression all
bespeak the straightforward and un-
swerving character of the man.
Mr.. Nicholson is bitterly opposed
to the liquor traffic. 1t is this bitter
ness that led him to put into every
deed executed by him what is believed
to be one of the strongest barriers
against the liquor traffic ever written
into deed in the state. 1t reads:

RIc FORCE OF MEN EMPLOYED
ON THE NEW RAILROAD
LINE.
Laying Of Track Will Commence as
Soon as Big Cut Near Riparia is
Disposed Of.

St. Clair Thomas, estimator in the
office of Resident Engineer Russell
Chase at Riparia states that work on
the lewiston Riparia line is progress
ing rapidly and that the road will un
doubtedly be completed within the
prescribed time. He says there is
great activity all along the line out
of Riparia and that several hundred
men are at work Twelve hundred
paria but has not yet been ballasted.
The laying of the rails on this part
has been done py hand but from now
on the track laying machine, which ar
rived last Monday, will be used to
place the ties on rails.
Big Force of Men.
A large force of WOrkmen is en-
ployed on long cut near Riparia and
it is expected that it will be two
weeks before they will have finishe
the work so that the laying of track
can commence. In many places the
grading has been finished and the road
ready for the rails. Many of the
places have not been touched yet ow-
ing to the geodetic condition of the
ground All of the danger rocks are
being removed from the side hills and
along the route. Heavy blasting is
being done in the rougher places and
preparations made for the steam SHOW
els to be put in operation.
Mr.. Thomas states that the contrac-
tors are having no trouble in securing
and keeping men on the works. They
have provided comfortable quarters
and excellent food, and as result the
men are working faithfully to the in
terests of the company. According to
Mr. Thomas most Of the work has
been between Riparia and Almota, and
near Lewiston. The two steam SHOW
els are working near Riparia, one be-
ing within a short distance from tn
station while the other is about -
miles.

SAYS HE HAS BIG FORCE OF MEN
AT WORK ON THE WALLU.
LA PACIFIC.
Old Columbia River Route is Beino
Used-No Conflict With the
Northern Pacific.

President L. Gerlinger of the Wal
firms reports from the north bank tina,
he has large force of men employed
on right Of-way work from Wallula
to Vancouver. The old columbia val
ley route is being followed closely, ans
it is said the Wallula Pacific has alb
sorbed that companys holdings.
No conflict has yet occurred be-
tween Wallula Pacific and Northern
Pacific surveyors or graders, blu,
trouble is expected when the rival
forces reach ground that is claimed
by both. The Columbia Valley had
the first right Of way at Cape Horn
and it's survey calls for a tunnel $3.50
feet long. The Northern Pacific's sur
vey parallels it with a slightly shorter
tunnel, closer to the rivers edge A
short distance west of the Horn the
Northern Pacific is said to have sur
veyed its line across the Wallula Pa
clfic right of way in two different
places, about a mile apart There will
be a conflict when both roads attempt
construction
Mr.. Gerlinger said the report that
the Milwaukee would come down the
Columbia over the Northern Pacific's
new tracks was inspired by Northern
Pacific right-Of-way men to assist in
forming public sentiment in their ia
VO,.
There is not the slightest probabili.
ty that such a combination would be
made" he said:
He still asserts that he is not in
formed as to the identity of eactern
interests for Which he is working, but
admits that a transcontinental rail-
road will come into Portland over tn
tracks of the Wallula Pacific, and
that the funds for purchase of right
of-way come from New York.
In the name of his company right.
of-way 100 feet wide, and in some
places 100 2eet feet, is being pur-
chased. He stated that construction
work would not be postponed much
Longer.
