President H. r. Williams, of the
Washington corporation, has returned
to Seattle from an inspection trip in
eastern Washington. He went over
the route of the road between the Co.
lumbia river and Lind. President
| Williams said this morning that the
contractors are rapidly getting in the
bridge foundations for the Columbia
river crossing and that all the sub
contractors now have full crews in the
field.
The cessation of railroad work in
the middle west and the release of
men in outdoor work of this state has
given the Milwaukee a chance to
gather big construction crew. Con-
tractors and officials of the road be-
lieve that plenty of men will be avail
able for winter work.
A steam shovel and a big crew Is
working from Maple valley, where the
Milwaukee will leave the tracks of
the Columbia & Puget Sound, toward
the intake of the city's water system
ON Cedar river. The right OF way has
been cleared and grading is being
pushed.
1t is not the intention to enter the
Cedar River valley until late winter
or spring. when better weather will
permit easier work and give better ia
cilities for sanitation. on the west
side the construction work is to be
pushed most rapidly between North
Bend and the Cascades; between Ma
pie valley and the intake and between
Seattle and Tacoma. with the excep-
ton of a small strip the entire right
OF way between Seattle and Tacoma
has been obtained by the Milwaukee. |
Track laying on the Seattle terminals |
has been in progress for several weeks. |
Preparations have been completed for |
building the two docks the company
will build here.
The North Yakima & Valley rail-
road is again open for traffic. The |
task of raising the steel bridge across
the Naches river has been successfully |
accomplished, although 1t has taken
three weeks to do the job, and has re-
quired a force of 40 men with all the
modern conveniences for such work
to operate with.
The first train will be sent over the
road this afternoon, and If the bridge
is adjudged safe the regular schedule
will be promptly put into effect.

A cliff of chalk, a whole mountain
of the soft white mineral that finds
uses in the commercial world from the
crayons with which little boys and
girls work out laboriously their 'rith-
metic problems for "teecher," to the
soft fine vehicle for face enamels, has
been discovered in the mountains that
surround Pine valley and is now taken
up in mineral claims by John r.
Rand, Charles F. Hyde and Henry
Moody, who believe they have for
tune in the mineral, says the Baker

years its valuable deposit has been

For years there has been no crayon
taken into the Pine valley for the use
of the schools. Since there have been
schools in the valley It is said the peo-
pie have gone to this cliff cut out
chalk, and used 1t for their black
boards, yet in all that time not a
claim was taken up.
Messrs. Rand, Hyde and Moody be-
lieved that there is considerable value
in the chalk deposit and have taken
up the entire deposit on mineral
claims, with the intention of working
them in case the deposit can be made
