Gil Ic-- TUNNEL is
WE'LL UNDER WAY

Work on the Cllnch Mountain tun-
mel on the South & Western railway.
at Clinehport, Va. is progressing
well and large part OF the stupen-
dous undertaking has already been
accomplished. The tunnel will be
driven entirely through the Clinch
mountain. distance of nearly 5000
feet. or little less than mile. The
work was let on contract by the
South & Western to the S. w. Wal
ton Contracting Company. OF Falls
Mills. Va, and was begun over
year ago. The tunnel is being drilled
through a solid bed of granite and
rock, and while the latest devised
machinery for this class OF work and
all labor saving devices are employ
ed. the undertaking necessarily pro-
crosses slowly on account OF the fact
that not a great many laborers can
be worked for want of room I'm the
openings
The tunnel is being cut larger than
most tunnels in this section. as are
all OF the many other tunnels along
the new trunk line from the coal
fields OF Kentucky and Southwest
Virginia to the southern seaboard
There are many tunnels along the
line in the mountains of this section
and in western North Carolina with
In distance OF eighteen miles there
are sixteen tunnels. The driving of
these tunnels entails q tremendous
expense, as in most instances the
coal. machinery and supplies have to
be hauled overland through the
mountains for many miles in wagons.
A tunnel near Marion, n. c., which
has been let to contract TO New
port News, Va, concern, is nearly as
large as the Clinch Mountain tunnel.
The latter will be the longest tun-
mel, II is thought, i'm this entire re-
gion, and will cost an immense
amount of money.
The construction work on the road
has been about all let TO private con-
tractors and is being pushed as rap
idly as possible. Thousands OF labor
ers are at work on the new line in
North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia
and Kentucky and millions of dol
lars are being spent in construction.
The road will be one of the costliest
in the country, and contrary to the
practice heretofore adopted in con-
struction of railroads of this kind, I'm
building the line as cheaply as posi-
bic and improving it afterwards at a
great expense, the South & Western
is being built with as little grade as
possible and substantially, so that
few improvements will be possible
after it's completion.

MRS. LONGWORTH'S
RECEPTIONS
AS VIEWED BY AN OHIO REPUB-
LICAN NEWSPAPER.

Word comes from Washington that
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, Jr., is rap
idly taking her place as a leading
hostess and that her Tuesdays at
home are brilliant social features. Or
dinarily such an announcement
would attract scant attention. The
sight of matrons, young and old,
going to heavily for entertaining
is too common at the capital to be
spectacular. Every one big enough
to get into the social register is
either host or guest. The social ac-
ton is so swift and constant that
according to the cynical observer, on
ly the corpse stays home in Wash
ington at time of death.
Back Of Mrs. Longworth's conspic-
uous hospitality is the shrewd plan of
a devoted and ambitious wife. She
is eager for her husband to succeed
in politics and so she is grating a
foreign custom on American society.
She is aiming to start a political
salon. That hourishes in London.
where the petticoat influence is wide
and strong in politics
A wise bright, tactful wife is one
Of the best assets OF the budding
British statesman. She makes his
home attractive to the man I'm power,
which is a big step. She brings his
best qualities TO their friendly notice.
She keeps him at his tasks when he
is lazy; curbs him when he gets un-
duly impatient; guides him skillful-
ly in ticklish places and jockeys him
along under the wire when. II left

been distanced, in all probability.
All these wonders are achieved,
mark you, by women who are mere
kindergartners I'm the school of life.
while the American matron is a grad
uate with the highest honors Our
women, whatever their social stand
ing, are quick-wiOted, energetic. re-
sourceful, convincing. cajoling and
altogether fascinating They have
beauty and good taste; all the deco
rative qualities They have adapta.
