STRIKE ABUNDANCE
|. OF flowing WATER

This morning both new wells at the
pumping plant of the Water & Light
company came in at about the same
time with good flows of water. From
the bottom of the sump the l0-inch
well is down S5 feet and the 6-inch
80 feet. The flow from the l0-inch
bore is much the strongest, owing to
the fact that a sand-pump was lost
in the other, and until that is recover
ed the flow will not be up to normal.
The new pump has been at work for
several days and is discharging a
stream of 1900 gallons per minute.
This water has formed good sized
creek leading down to the river, and
this probably accounts, in great
meausre, for the rise in the river
noticed at the bridge during the past
few days.

when the man meets woman that

and ruby lips result from her pure

muscles, all telling of the health and
strength Electric Bitters give a

and dizzy spells they promote. Every

.SW|TCHBACK Will
BE DONE TOMORROW

The Western Pacific is bending all
its energies to construct the switch
back over the mountains at Beckwith
pass, necessitated by the damage suff-
cred by the Chilicoot tunnel fire.
Many of the general officers Of the
road have been on the scene for sew
eral days, including President
Schlaacks, General Manager Levey
and Trainmaster Jack Spellman, Supt.
Roads and Bridges E. c. Calvin, Supt.
E. M. Mason, of the Western division.
Yesterday Roadmaster Patton was sent
for at Elko to take charge of gang
of men, and he passed through here
this morning.
At present there are about 20
gangs of men and 100 teams at work
on construction of the road, and it is
expected that trains will be running
over the mountains some time tomor-
row. Forces of men are at work re-
pairing the portals of the tunnel, and
as soon as the bore has cooled suffi-
GENTLY the work of retimbering will
be commenced. 1t is thought the re-
pairs can be made in about 80 days.

this effect caused surprise. The reason

There is a strong disposition here,
