The slate railway commission, which lias had under considera tion the application of the Lin coln Telephone and Telegraph company for permission to adjust the telephone rates in this city, Saturday decided to allow the company to make the advance in rates asked for. The new rates will be effective from the lirst of June ami are as follows: Husi ness telephones, $2.50; in dividual residences telephone, $1.50; two-party residence tele phone, $1.-5. The farm lino, telephones will remain at the present rale of 1.50 per month. Heretofore the lines in the city have lunl four to a lino, but under the new system just installed there are only two on a line mak ing I ho serv ice much better, And the all-metallic lino cuts out the trouble so often experienced of hearing several parlies talking at the same lime on the different lines. The company expects to shortly reduce the number of farm lines to ten parties. At present some of the linos have as many as eighteen on them, and the new arrangement will give the subscribers a much belter service at the same price.

MMieiHi USE PHONE 54 TO SAVE TIME AND MONEY IT BIDS FOR PILING AROUND POSTOFFIGE Tl The government is advertising for bids for the placing of wood sheet piling around the govern ment building in this city to pre vent, further settling of the soil. The building has settled but very little, but the supervising inspect or of the government buildings believes that it will be the best thing to see that it does not get a chance to settle, and by the placing'of these piles around the entire lot it is thought to hold the soil more firm and prevent the earth settling toward the old creek-bed, which in years gone by ran south of the present build ing. The placing of the piling will necessitate the tearing up and replacing of the walks lead ing to the entrances of the build ing, as well as the macadimized driveway to the west of the build ing, but this driveway will be re placed by one of concrete simila to the paving on Vine street. Tlvs proposed changes will mean a great deal of labor, but when it is completed ought to make the government building proof against future settling of the lot. The bids must be in Washington by June 18, and the contract will probably be let about the first of July and work commenced at once on the placing of the piling. How's This?
