TO LAY NEW RAILS
ON WASHINGTON STREET
Plans of Street Railway Company to
Better Main Line of Its System.

On that memorable day when Phoe-
nix starts to pave her streets. the Phoe-
nix Street Railway company will start
to relay its tracks from Ninth street to
Thirteenth avenue. We do not want
TO stand in the line of progress and if
the city paves We will do our part, -
said Manager 5. II. Mitchell of the
street railway company yesterday. 1t
is going to cost us a lot of money but
it must be done. The Washington
street line, however, will be recon-
structed whether the city decides to
pave or not. All the old rails now in
use will be taken up and replaced with
6O-pound STEEL
The machine which has been brought
here to bond the rails of the system is
now working on the Lincoln place ex-
tension. 1t will not be used at all on
Washington street, since that line is to
be reconstructed at an early date.
Every bond that the machine makes
between two rails costs 81. Ii makes
seventy and seventy-two bonds day,
so il is costing the company all of SIS
a day to keep it in operation. The end
is not in sight, as it has hardly be-
gun.
Mr. Mitchell says that his company
is laying low and waiting the action
Of the city on the paving proposition.
II was long ago decided to tear out the
old-rails on Washington street, from
Ninth street to Seventh avenue. and
probably to Thirteenth avenue. While
the street is being paved will be very
suspicious time TO do the work.
The company's share of the cost OF
paving the streets is going to amount
to some few thousand dollars. No one
except Mr.. Mitchell has taken the trou-
BILE to figure out the exact amount and
he confesses that it makes his head
swim. Paved streets and new lines are
going to make quite a dent in General
Sherman's bank account. but Mr..
Mitchell says that he is as anxious as
anyone to see Phoenix progress and
will do everything possible to improve
the city, as well as his street car sys-
tenn
Rapid progress is being made on the
new line TO Glendale When the two
crews. working west from Central ave
nue. and east from Glendale. knocked
off work Saturday night they were
within a mile and half of each other.
Two or three weeks more will see the
line in shape for operation.

PURELY VEGETABLE
The ONE SAFE BLOOD REMEDY

1t is a generally recognized fact
that medicines taken from the botan-
ical kingdom are better adapted to
the delicate human system, and safer
in every way than those composed of
strong mineral mixtures. Among
the very best and safest of vegetable
preparations is S. S. S., blood med
cine made entirely of roots, herbs and
barks, in such combination as to
make it the greatest of all blood puri-
fers and the finest of ali tonics.
s. S. S. does not contain the least
particle of mineral in any form, and
IS an absolutely safe medicine for any
one to use. While purifying the
blood, this great vegetable remedy
builds up every portion of the system.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism, Catarrh,
Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases,
Scrofula, Constitutional Blood Dis
eases. and all impurities and morbid
conditions of the circulation. 1t is
perfectly reliable and safe for children;
and little ones who have been weak
ened with scrofulous affections or
other inherited blood troubles, can
take this mild vegetable remedy with
good results and without the slightest
danger. S. S. S. is unequalled as a
tonic; it invigorates every portion of
the system, and the healthy blood it
creates largely assists in overcoming
any arrangement of the stomach
and digestive system If you need a
blood medicine you could do no better
than to take S. S. S. 1t has been in
use for more than forty years and is
still recognized as the best. Book on
the blood free TO all who write.

Allows Wife to Wed Another.

! Vicksburg, Miss, Jan. 13.-Hi'
great act of self-sacrifice accomp
lished by giving up the English wife
i he loved to the man she loved, kuni
san Inomata, a Samurai and the SOL
of wealthy Japanese of Toxic, is
dying in the charity hospital here Of
broken heart and wasting dis
| ease while his former wife and the
man she married are, by tender at
tention, trying to make his last hours
| easier.
With the stoicism of the Oriental
he suffers and says nothing, but be.
hind his suffering lies strange ro-
nance. Almost a decade ago Helen
A. Hunt, whose father was mayor OF
a small town near London, England
and well to do, loved young Eng
lishman named James Gibson. A
quarrel with her sweetheart caused
the girl to come to America. Eight
years ago she found herself in Bos-
ton penniless. While, working in the
store of NJ. Yamataro there she met
Inomata.
The japanese Samurai loved her
and his gentle ways won Miss Hunt.
They were married and went to New
Orleans. The girl fell i'll and Ino-
mata worked night and day to make
enough money to pay doctors bills
and hospital fees. His own health
became undermined and he became
despondent.
Some months ago, while Inomata
and his wife were in Jackson, Miss,
on business she met Gibson, he too,
having come to America. One sight
of him told the girl she still loved
him and Gibson swore that he had
loved her always.
After days of silent anguish, Mrs.
Inomata confessed to her husband
that she loved Gibson. The Japan
ese listened with stoical silence to
the story and then abruptly left his
wife to think it over.
On his return to their boarding
house in New Orleans, Inomata said
to his wife: 81 am failing in health.
You go to Jackson, bring suit for
divorce and I will not oppose it, I
will say nothing. Then go and marry
this Englishman you love-"
The girl followed his advice. On
December 5, accompanied by the man
who had been her husband, and the
man who had been her by-gone sweet
heart, the woman came to Vicksburg.
Here she and Gibson were married.
That night Inomata, the Ruskin of
Japan, went to the hospital to die.
