Great Improvement
In Telephone Service

The international Telephone Co.'S.
long distance lines between Victoria
and Vancouver are again in first
class working order after week S
suspension of communication due to
the breaking of the cable across San
Juan Channel, from Point Caution,
at the entrance to Friday Harbor,
to Shaw island. The tides are very
strong in the channel and the bot
tom very rocky and uneven. The
four conductor wires of the cable
are insulated in gutta percha, en-
cased in an armor made of sixteen
strands of No. s wire, covered with
hemp. So great is the force of the
tides in places that the heavy cable
is washed back and forth across jag
ged rocks, gradually wearing the
armor apart and in time exposing
the conductor wires to the corrosion
of the salt water. That is what
happened in San Juan channel and
the same trouble occurred in. the
Canal de Haro, near the San Juan
side, last December.
The government cable ship Burn
sitde was ordered here from Seattle
by the secretary of war to repair the
recent break. The old cable, badly
worn in several places, was taken
up and section 1000 feet in length,
brought here from Victoria last Sat-
urday, was laid in it's place. The
old cable was taken on scow to
Shaw island and buried in the sand
and gravel under salt water. 1t de-
teriorates rapidly when exposed to
the air.
The international telephone SER
vice has been of incalculable value
to this county. It is fortunate in
deed for us that the islands of this
county afford the most favorable
route for telephone communication
between Victoria ard Vancouver,
whose rapid groNth and eomner-
cial interests insure lle main I'M
ence of frst-class Service ~ will
be gratifying news to the people of
this county to learn that the already
excellent service is to be vastly i'm
proved by the laying of another and
much larger cable, carrying seven
pairs Of conductor wires and necess-
itating the stringing of seven more
pairs of land wires. The cable will
probably have paper insulation,
which is said to be much superior to
rubber for facilitating the transmits
sion of sound. Such a cable is in
successful use now across San Fran
cisco bay and there are others in
other parts of the country. Bids
have been secured for the manufact-
ure of the new cable, both from
American and English manufactur-
ers, and it is expected that the con-
tract will soon be let. When the
new line is completed at least one
pair of wires will be set apart for
the exclusive use of the people OF
the islands, insuring the best posi-
BILE service.

Regarding Change of Time.

There has been some talk in the
city during the past week regarding
a proposed change of time on the
Wenatchee- Mansfield branch. The
residents of the upper country would
like to have the change made but the
merchants of this city are pretty well
satisfied with the present schedule.
The residents of the upper country
are allowed to arrive here about
noon, do their shopping and get back
there in the evening. Agent Piper,
OF the Great Northern, has canvassed
the business men regarding this mat
ter and while there is nothing given
out definitely on this matter yet it
is not likely that there will be any
change at the present time.

how the chocolate is made. In the
back of the room is a table for four,

DOG PO|SONER IN
TOWN
FIEND OPERATING
IN CITY-PENALTY is $500
JAIL.

A law breaker is busy in the south
end scattering poisoned meat around
the streets. Howard Patience lost a
pet dog yesterday that had picked
up some of the meat and was so
nearly dead that Mr. Patience had
to shoot the animal. The dog was
only a puppy, housed at night, and
not given to running after horses
There are some other dogs in the
neighborhood that are pretty bad
about chasing horses and the poison
may have been meant for them The
indiscriminate use of poison is a
criminal offense and some strong
feeling is in the air against the per-
son who used the underhanded meth
cd of disposing other peoples prop
erty.
A boy named Urban Fisher was
the first to notice the poison. He
was in Chelan last year when some
criminal there disposed of IS dogs
by the strychnine route. When he
saw his own dog carrying a piece
of meat he at once thought about
the poisoning at Chelan and took the
meat away from him. A little later
he noticed another dog that was
pretty far gone. He recognized it as
one belonging to Howard Patience
and made some effort to save it but
the poison effect had gone too far.
Subsequently he discovered a num-
Der of pieces of meat in that neigh
borhood, one close to the house of
l.. V. Wells.
There are a number of valuable
dogs in town and their owners are
feeling some alarm over the present
situation.
The following is an extract from
Pierce's code relating to the MALI
cious use of poison:
II any pCloOH HIdllClOuSls hills
main or disfgure any horse, cattle,
dog, or any other domestic animal
or animals, or expose any poisonous
substance with intent that the same
should be taken by it or them, he
shall be punished by Imprisonment
in the county Jail not exceeding one
year or by fine not exceeding $500"

Skating at Night.

ers. Many in couples and a few
Staging" it around alone The cou-
Piles kept farther from the electric
lights and did not seem to require the
services of the stove in the pavilion
as much as the 20. AS" did. Quite
a number of couples got lost last
night on the way to the rink, whether
intentional or not is uncertain, but
for the benefit of those who want to
take the shortest route to the ice,
Manager Ritz states that the best way
is to go past the courthouse two
blocks and then go to the left two
blocks. Skating will be allowed at
the rink all day Sunday.

CLERK FOUND IN VAULT.

The steam heating plant in the
courthouse was out of business yes
terday and today on account of a
lack of water. Yesterday there was
enough leftover heat in the building
to keep the occupants fairly comfort
able, but today the latent heat was
all used up and everybody worked
in overcoats and gum shoes. Early in
the morning a Peary club was form

relief station had been established.
Somebody had resucitated a defunct
"hot-air" heater from the courtroom
and set it up in the auditors Office.
Later boys sized coal stove dis
appeared from somewhere in Wenat-

at work was being made. 1t was not
long before Cook club was in full
swing there, but it was an older
group and was content to simply hug
the stove. Down in the Peary club
the esquimaux tried to work, but
company was coming in to get warm
all the time. Then there was one
other club that was the quietest place
in the building The county clerk
did the polar bear act and holed up
in the vault with a little coal-oil
