Sept 10-Your correspondent has Just
arrived from his perfected timber claim
close to the Caldor sawmill where he
has been "rusticatng' amid the
balmy breeze where the ozone gives
reparation to the crying lungs for aid.
At day break the sonorus whistle OF the
sawmil sends forth coarse voice over
the mountains and through the dense
forest that now surrounds Immediately
upon the sounding of the mill whistle
the coyotes set up howl as in unison
with its efforts. The whistle blows two
long blasts, an interval between them.
This is the morning call for all en-
ployes to arise preparatory for the day S
work. "Get up! it cries, get up, day
has broken and now you must prepare to
90 to work. - An hour afterwards the
whistle sounds again and says in sub
stance $50 to work. y
John Hassell was over to my place
last Wednesday, While there he killed
a rattlesnake fully 21a inches in diam

eleven rattles and button as his signal
warning that he was dangerous. John
killed fine five point buck recently that
dressed ITO pounds.
The Mooney brothers crushed out OF
their mine recently 10 tons OF rock
which yielded them $500, nearlya hun
dred dollars a ton.
The Mount Pleasant is working a
number of men in the mine. There is
talk of another company taking hold OF
the Joe Lyons mine that has laid idle for
several years.
Since returning to my old home | was
panied to hear that Mrs Seeley on Mon
day last received injuries from an old
horse she had known for years to such
an extent that she now lies at the point
of death. Her children have been sum-
moned from their various homes as
consequence of her approaching death
which at this period seems inevitable.
She got hurt somehow by unhitching her
horse and leaving one tug unhitched.
This scared the horse and in some way
unknown produced the injuries which
now seem fatal.
Mrs Vollmer of Oleta died at that
place on Monday last was buried
Wednesday morning. She was daugh-
ter of the late James o. Toole, a miner
of Plymouth in its palmy days. She
was sister. in law of D. Burke, now
superintendent of the county hospital.

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need SUFFICIENT amount of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach IL
tits weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat a sufilc-
lent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do 1t,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol di-
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help it by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.

ALL THE WAY FROM
ENGLAND TO WE'D

Spokane, May 29.-This is some
thing about a romance which began
in the village of Cinnington, England,
seven years ago, when Walter Alfred
Smith and Ada Edwards were school
mates, and resulted in their marriage
in the parsonage of the First Baptist
church, where Rev. DR.. Kramer per-
formed the ceremony The bride
travelled from London to Spokane
unaccompanied. the sea and overlan
journey occupying IA days. They
were married an hour after the ar
rival of the bride and will make their
home in Spokane. Mr.. Smith, who Is
an employee in the government build
ing here. prepared to go to England
last Christmas, but was robbed of his
savings Of $500. He resumed his
work for Uncle Sam and saved
enough to provide funds for his
sweetheart to come to the northwest.

TO EKPEND SEVEN
MILLIONS
JAY p. GRAVES WILL POUR VAST
SUMS INTO THE BUILDING OF
LINES RADIATING OUT OF SPO-
KANE IN ALL DIRECTIONS.

Spokane, May 29.-Seven million
dollars Is to be expended on extern
sions and improvements of the Spo-
kane & Inland Empire Electric rail-
way system, Of which Jay P. Graves
of Spokane is president. The COM
'pany has plans to build a line from
this city into the Big Bend wheat belt,
tapping Miles. Wash, at the conflu-
ence of the Spokane and Columbia
rivers, Is miles northwest of here,
where the government will throw
open between $4,000 and 100000
acres Of land on the Spokane reser-
walton. This construction involves an
expenditure of more than 100000.
Another extension probably will be
from Moscow to Lewiston, Idaho, to
reach the head of navigation on the
Snake river There are also rumors
that a line is contemplated into the
Walla Walla country, but this can
work on the first mentioned extension
will begin as soon as Mr.. Graves re-
turns to his office. He has been con-
fined to his home by sickness since
May /, but is now convelescent. tits
given out that other work will be
started this season. The capital to
carry out these improvements is be-
ing furnished by Mr.. Graves asso-
|cago, who approved the recommends
lions made on a trip to those cities in
April. The company now operates
|210 miles Of lines in Washington and
Idaho.

from the United States forest service.

from the United States forest service.
The route of the proposed lines
have been mapped out and a copy
of the plat is now on file in the local
forest office. According to this the
survey begins at Marble Mount, at
the confluence of the Skagit and Sank
rivers, and follows up the course OF
the Skagit. At the mouth Of Cascade
creek the line branches. One branch
follows the course of Cascade creek
to its headwaters. where by a tunnel
a mile and quarter long it is pro-
posed to pierce the main divide of
the Cascades and emerge on the east
side in the vicinity of Doubtful lake.
The other branch follows the Skagit
to the mouth of Thunder creek and
then up Thunder creek to the sum-
init, where by tunnel through the
rim of Horseshoe Basin it makes con-
junction with the other line on the
headwaters of the Stehekin river. The
one line then follows down the Ste
hekin to the head of Lake Chelan.
Last Friday, Engineer c. F. Hea-
ley, chief of the company's field work,
and J. ]. Sellars, head of the COM
missary department, arrived in Che
Ian from Tacoma and went uplake
Monday to look over the proposed
route on this side of the mountains.
They were accompanied by Deputy
Supervisor D. S. Rice and Ranger E.
0. Blankenship, who will take note
of the departments interests along
the line
At various times during the past
winter rumors drifted into this sec
ton that one or more parties of sur
veyors were diligently at work on the
west side of the mountains and that
their work seemed so urgent that
they were working in ten feet of snow.
Though it was stated that lines for
new road through the Cascades
were being run, but little attention
was paid to the matter on Lake Che
lam Early in the spring a party of
surveyors arrived here and stated
that they were under orders to run
lines for a proposed railroad along
Lake Chelan and up the Stehekin
valley to Cascade pass. However.
they found the snow too deep for
work at that time and left within a
few days and nothing had been
heard of them since.
| Engineer Healey was in charge Of
| the party and he now says that he
will have another party of about 40
men here about June 10 and that
they will complete the surveys for
the road during the coming sum-
mer.

THROUGH CASCADE PASS
Latest Railroad Project for Lake
Chelan-Chief Engineer
Visits Lake.

It is an even chance that Chelan'S
first railway connection with the out
side world will be via Lake Chelan,
the Stehekin river valley and the
passes through the rugged Cascades
above the head of the lake, If the
Great Northern doesn't hurry up with
it's Columbia river line, says the Che
Ian Leader.
A railroad project is developing on
the west side of the mountains which
is either a stupendous enterprise or
a gigantic bluff. The Thunder Creek
Transportation & Smelling company
of Seattle and Tacoma proposes to
build a line-two of them, in fact
up the west side of the Cascades to
| tap the rich mineral districts of
Thunder creek, Horseshoe Basin and
Doubtful lake 1t will be called the
Skagit, Cascade & Chelan railway and
will reach Lake Chelan via the Ste
hekin valley.
| The company is said to have 49,
100000 of European capital back OF
| it. 1t is also said that the project
is feasible, and the company, which
has been organized for some time
past, has it's plans so far developed
