snap" in the air to relieve any
feelings of inertia,
With 1908 beginning it's career
we would advise you to Think
not regretfully of the past; it is
gone forever; only the present is
thine; wisely improve it; before
thee is the shadowy future, go
forth to meet it bravely."
Though conformable with Gus

should inspire us and our actions
with things more holier, while
our National Holidays would be

State Senator, E. G.. Senter, in
an anti-Bailey speech at Dallas
last Saturday, made the state

the people. If any single per.
son has faced more people in Tex

Senator Bailey has, We would
like Mr.. Senter to name him, yes
and the people have invariably
been with Mr.. Bailey every time
he has faced them.

was with the old Hotchkiss Theater
company and has since made two re-
turn visits with Savage's Sultan OF
Sulu" companies.
While in Richmond Miss Nichols,
who is a great admirer of dogs, no.
ticed a hunting dog chained in a ken
mel and thoughtlessly approached the
animal to caress it. 1t appears that
the nima1 had been starved prepara-
tory to sending 1t on the chase. Two
long feathers ornamenting the young
womans hat dangled towards the
canine as she bent over and the next
moment the animal jumped at her. Its
fangs fastened in Miss Nichols cheek
and tore a CHASTITY cash. Friends
dubbed the dog insensible and the VIC
tim was hurried to doctors office. 1t
is supposed the scent of the feathers
attracted the dog, making 1t act as it
did
For a time Miss Nichols thought her
dramatic oarear was blasted, but hap
ply sach was not the case.
She viii, however, undertake to rest
her nerves during her two weeks stay
in her old home city.

OWENS RAILROAD
IS NOW ASSURED
MAYOR BRINGS BACK SECRET
FROM THE NORTH
Believed That When Aqueduct Bids
Are Opened Friday Southern Pa
cifIe VIII Offer to Construct
the Valley Line

Mayor Harper's delayed return from
San Francisco is now taken by the
knowing ones to indicate that he has
wrung from Southern Pacific officials
promise to build a branch line
through owens valley. On the quick
completion of this line much of the
progress of the great aqueduct is de-
pended.
If the Southern Pacific does not build
the city itself will do so, but the ad-
ministration and it's advisers much pre-
fer that the Southern Pacific, equipped
as 1T is with connections, shall under
take the huge task.
Bids for the transmission of $4,000
tons of freight for the aqueduct will
be opened by the board of public works
on Friday, when the bidding will defin-
itely determine the railroad problem.
One Of the conditions of the contract
is that the successful bidder shall con-
struct a railway along the line of the
aqueduct from Mojave to Lone Pine,
Inyo county. 1856 miles, at an estimated
cost of $2,500,000. A 100000 bond will
be required on the contract.
Mayor Harper and others have made
several trips to San Francisco con-
ferring with traffic officials on the
transportation outlook, but 1T is be-
lieved that the important problem has
been settled at last by the consent of
the Hartman interests to penetrate
the Owens valley with the much needed
branch line.
Il can't say word about that line"
said the mayor yesterday, "or what 1
did in San Francisco. That line will be
built, though"
