way are completed by the Wash

Theh Lidgerwood line is being
double tracked from Bridgeport:
avenue to West avenue, a distance
of half a mile, and double track
will be laid on the Aston street line
almost to it's junction with the
Lidgerwood line. The Aston line is
also being extended on a single
track to Rowan avenue, half
mile farther north.
When these improvements are
completed the company will prob

better service on the regular

WATER PROJECT
FROM PAGE ONE.

Dictated by my approval Of the gen.
eral plans submitted:
81. The extension Of the pres
ent system of drawing additional
water from the sub-surface sands
and gravel Of the Spokane valley,
in the vicinity of the up-river sta
ton, by the construction of another
well, in order to form a necessary
reserve as well as auxiliary source
from which to pump water, is
All the evidence de-
rived from the use of the present
well demonstrates that the city of
Spokane may confidently rely upon
this source for its future extern
sions, both as to volume and as
to high sanitary quality.
"2. The proposed auxiliary or
reserve of 100000 gallons daily
capacity pumping plant, to draw
water from the new well as a re-
serve or precaution against dis
abling of the existing machinery
and as necessary for the proper
repairs and maintenance of the en-
tire pumping plant, is recommend
ed to be purchased and put in place
without delay.
"3. The 100000 gallon addition
to the present high pressure pump
ing plant is recommended, for the
various reasons set forth.
a. The immediate construction
of the proposed 100000 gallon
reservoir for the southeastern quar-.
ter of the city, with the 80 inch
delivery main from the pumping
station, is recommended, in order
to provide for the urgent needs
created by the rapid growth OF
that part of the city, to be supple
mented by the construction of the
auxiliary 100000 gallon capacity
pumping station and standpipe fed
by it, for Lincoln Heights and
Altamont, as well as the 14-inch
main connecting with the existing
standpipe at Twenty-ninth and
Grand street.
IS. The immediate purchase OF
two reservoir sites on the north
side, one affording a surface eleva.
tion of about 2100 feet and the
other surface elevation of 1900
feet.
sc. | recommend the extension
of the high pressure protection for
the lumber district as being essen
tial for the safety of not only that
particular district, but of that part
of the city in it's vicinity.
az. l recommend the construc
ton of the four standpipes suitably
with the development Of the water
supply system, so as to meet the
urgent needs of the districts which
they will serve as those needs now
exist or as they may arise.
IS. l recommend that the con
struction of those four standpipes
in reinforced concrete, with agree
able architectural effects, be most
carefully considered. Respectfully
submitted, William H. Burr, Con
sulting Engineer.

Cars Caught in Gazing Tunnel

to Death.
UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. !

Dunsmuir, Cal, Nov. 1.-Conduc-
tor Ed. F. Richardson and Brake
man Charles Neate were killed OFF
burned to death when tunnel No. l.,
a mile south of Coram, on the South
ern Pacific railroad, caved in at
6:25 o'clock this morning, burying
five cars and the caboose of freight
train No. %, which was composed
of IS cars.
After the cave-in, the caboose
caught fire from the heating stove,
and the flames spread to the other
cars.
1t is impossible to tell whether the
two victims were killed outright by
the cave-in or were burned slowly to
death in their subterranean prison,
after being injured.
Men who rushed to the scene
thought they heard Neate calling for
aid, and from this it is believed that
ne lived for some time after the ic-
cident.
Both bodies were recovered, but
were so badly burned that it was
difficult to tell how seriously they
were injured when the rock and
earth toppled in on the train.

AS soon as the accident occurred,
the engineer, after having the coup
ling cut, rushed his locomotive to
the nearest station for aid.
The accident is attributed to the
recent heavy rains, which have
soaked the earth, until the water has

jarring of the heavy freight train, as
it made its way through the bore.
The tunnel is 46Q feet long. The

Winter Onions.

The season for planting this
crop is now at hand. We quote
the following brief instructions
from an Exchange:
Prepare the soil perfectly and
select it as fertile as possible,
preferably with southern ex-
posture. Rows may be quite close
together, from one foot to two
feet. Cultivate once or twice
and in fall spread good manure
between the rows; take care to
select manure that is free from
timothy or other seed that will be
troublesome early in Spring.
These onions will give quick
money as they should be ready
for punching in March or April,
according to season.
