LONGEST TUNNEL IN WORLD
PLANNED BY C. P. RAILWAY
Winnipeg, Man., May 2—The
Canadian Pacific' railway has de
cided on a second tunnel in the
western mountains. This tunnel
will be 1(3 miles long, being near
ly four miles longer than the fa
mous Simplon in the Alps and
nearly twice as long as the Loth
burg tunnel opened last year.
The new funnel will be through
the famous Kicking lforse Pass
of Ihe Rocky mountains. The
Eastern portal will be in Alberta
and the Western portal in British
Columbia. Careful computations
indicate th,ul Ihe work will cost
s 1 1,000,0(10 and will occupy sev
en years In complete. This is
based on the data secured from
conslruction records of live large
Alpine funnels. The tunnel, like
that of the Selkirk range through
Rogers’ Pass, will reduce the
trackage by five miles and will
do away with many miles of dan
gerous snowslides. Grades will
be reduced from two and a half
per cent to less than one per cent.
Improvements now under way
and proposed will make the C. 1’.
Ry. main line shorter than any
other transcontinental line- in
America by 300 milds. Grades
and curves will be better than on
any American road, and the com
pany looks to develop the western
outlet to. the Orient. Complete
electrification of the Rocky moun
tain division has practically been
decided upon. This will mean a
saving of Iwo-thirds in the cost
of fuel.

Valdez to Hie Cliff mine today in

CAPTAIN OF MORRIS
SUFFERED HARDSHIPS
Nome, May 2.—The break-up of
the ice in Bering strait is pre
venting the rescue of Capt. Wil
liam Schroeder, master of the
wrecked whaling schooner Mor
ris, and who is marooned on Big
Diomede island, where he was left
by the other survivors of the
wreck of the Morris and the
schooner Kittiewake, which were
destroyed by an ice pack off the
Canadian coast last fall. Johan
Koren, who was in command of
the scientific expedition sent out
mi the Kittiewake by John E.
Thayer, of Boston, and other
members of the party, made their
away across the ice from the is
land lo the Alaska mainland last
month, but Capt. Schroeder was
too wdak to accompany them.
Capt. Schroeder is subsisting
on beans and sugar. Reports re
ceived here said the flesh is fall
ing oil' his hands and feet and it
is feared he will die if tip; res
cuers do not reach him soon. Na
tive boatmen are making every
effort to take him off but the ice
floes prevent the boatmen from
landing.
A fast dog team is held ready
a|. Cape Prince of Wales to bring
Capt. Schroeder to Nome as soon
,as the boatmen get him across to
tbi> mainland.
Short Day for Servants.
Says the Chicago Record-Her
ald: Out in Idaho the club wo
men are engaged in a most in
teresting experiment, which may
have a profound bearing on the
solution of the servant problem
elsewhere. The club women were
the ardent champions of an eight
hour day for women in factories
ami shops.
Very well, said the manufac
turers, but the arguments of the
women would have far more force
if they could come into court
with clean hands—i. e., if they
were not in the habit oY working
their own domesties for longer
hours.
The women didn't seek to (Wade
the argument by pointing nut that
the analogy is somewhat inexact;
on tlu> contrary they agreed to
put an eight-hour law in force
in their own kitchens.
At the next meeting of the state
federation these women will tell
other women how the plan works.
In I he larger cities we are al
ready becoming familiar with a
new kind of domestic service--a
service somewhat s'imilar to that
in otl'ices and shops, where the
servants live outside the house
and leave when the day’s work is
done. In cities at least, where
the small Hat offers no accom
modations for domestics, this
system has worked very well, and
it has tended to promote a feel
ing of independence and an op
portunity for freedom that makes
domestic service more ifltractive.
