Chicago—lmportant developments In fhe strike of commercial telegra phers are looked for soon by both dis putants. Confident that the strike has spent its force and that the turning point has been reached the telegraph companies look for a stampede of the strikers to regain their former positions. Cheered by the reports they hare re ceived from the various cities affected, the strikers, on the other hand, are prepared to prosecute the strike more vigorously than ever According to advices received at cities affee’ed upion headquarters the messenger boys and check clerks In New York are scheduled to go out. Three hundred operators employed by the American Telephone 4c Tele graph Company throughout the South west may b* called out unless a ten per cent. Increase in wages is granted. That is one of the trump cards which President Small expects to play If the order Is issued It will isolate Chicago from the rest of the country as far as telephonic communication is con cerned. A representative of the company was surpris'd to hear of the contem plated strike and said he understood the entire matter has been settled by officials tn New York. He declared he understood the set tlement applied to the operators em ployed by the company throughout the entire country, as well as in the Chi cago office. Another report is the contemplated plan of the strike leader to call out the cable operators, which would isolate America from the rest of the world, but it Is admitted that this coup is not likely to materialize. The strike leaders themselves doubt fhelr ability to tie up the cable service at the most important points. The board of directors of the Associ ated Press will meet in New York, when it is expected that terms of set tlement will be discussed. General Manager Stone has asked for a confer ence with the former employes of the association on the eastern circuits, but the men have been advised by Presi lent Small to make no settlement that | does not include all the operators of •he company.

The discovery that the State Board of Equalization has reduced the as sessed valuation of the Rio Grande Western railway in Mesa county SISC,- 000 was made by the county commis sioners when the certified copy of the equalization body was received from Denver. The commissioners took prompt action in the matter and im mediately sent a petition to the gov ernor demanding that the valuation of the company be placed at the same figure as last year. This year the board has fixed a value upon the thirty-four miles of track operated at SIO,OOO a mile, while the assessment in 190 C was 1 $2,000. This does not include the rolling stock, etc. The appraised valuation of the Rio Grande Junction and other railways operating in Mesa county are practically the same as heretofore. The commissioners are at a loss to understand why such a re markable reduction should be made for the Rio Grande Western, as its track, rolling stock and other property is said to be identically the same as last year. Should the state board not rescind its action. Mesa county will lose over SB,OOO, as this Is the amount of taxes that would be derived from the former assessment. C. J.

Ten pounds of meat might con tain more nourishment than one pound of Grape-Nuts, but not in shape that the system will absorb as large a pro portion of, as the body can take up from one pound of Grape-Nuts. This food contains the selected parts* of wheat and barley whicH are pre pared and by natural means predi gested. transformed into a form of sugar, ready for immediate assimila tion. People In all parts of the world testify to the value of Grape-Nuts. A Mo. man says: "I have gained ten pounds on Grape-Nuts food. I can truly recommend it to thin people.” He had been eating meat, bread, etc., right along, but there was no ten pounds of added flesh until Grape-Nuts food was used. One curious feature regarding true health food is that its use will reduce the weight of a corpulent person with unhealthy flesh, and will add to the weight of a thin person not properly nourished. There is abundance of t evidence to .prove this. Grape-Nuts balances the body in a condition of true health. Scientific se lection of food elements makes Grape- Nuts good and valuable. Its delicious flavor and powerful nourishing prop erties have made friends that in turn have made Grape-Nuts famous. “There’s a Reason.” Read “The Road to Wellville,” In pkgs.
