Str&ets-Free..
The ARDMoREITE is requested by
our townsman w. r. Burnitt. TO
repeat his proposition advanced
some time ago, but which was,
owing to the fact that the streets
were not named, considered at that
time too premature.
But now that all streets. lanes,
alleys and avenues have been
christened. the numbering of the
houses therein is Eext in order.
Mr.. Burnitt's proposition is Ms
follows:
will place a name plate, neat
and legible, on each angling corner
of every street and avenue in the
city of Ardmore, for the franchise
of the numbering of the houses.
will furnish each house neat
silver number, black ground, silver
border three by five inches for 15c
cents each. or higher price if so
desired"
In his letter to the ARDMoREITE
Mr.. Burnitt adds, 81 can devote
my whole time to it during the
summer months, and will put il
through in good shape if my pro-
position is accepted by the council. "
We have only to add that this
proposition which does not cost the
city anything, is certainly worthy
the consideration of the council
and unless cheaper" job can be
put up before them. they should
accept Burnitt's proposition.

Some Facts and Figures Which Per-
tain to This System.

tain TO This System.
Believing that a few figures from
our postoffice department here
would prove interesting, especially
at this time when clamor is out
for free delivery service, inquiry
from Postmaster Scott reveals the
fact that the receipts of the postof-
fee for the year ending March 81,
1899. were $40, ,07O.OO. or only $40
more than the required amount to
obtain free delivery.
The receipts for the past eleven
months ending February 28,amount
to $9153. 90. or 1867 less than the
required $40, ,OOO. 90 per annum.
The March receipts to date are
only about $500, making it neces-
sary TO raise at least $4,000 dur
ing the coming week to keep the
Office DIP to the free delivery stand
ard.
ALI allowances for the fiscal year
beginning July l are based on
the receipts for the preceding
twelve months ending March 81 of
each year.
Now that the city has named the
streets and is about to number the
houses, two other prerequisites for
free delivery. it is the duty of every
business and professional man hav-
ing the interest of the city at heart
to purchase a months supply OF
stamps or stamped envelopes dur
ing the present week.
Don't put this off, as week s
delay may cause years delay in
obtaining the service.
Our postmaster has given us the
tip and it is our duty to take
advantage of it before it is too late

PROGRESS OF The NAVY

Washington, Oct. 11.-Admiral HIGH
born, chief of the Bureau Of Construc-
ton and Repair, has made public a
statement showing the progress of the
work on the VESSELS now under con-
struction for the navy.

Ohio stand respectively at 80 and 80
per cent of completion. The Missouri

are each about half finished. The six
teen torpedo boat destroyers, as we'll as

NO[ANS Want DIVORCE
CLIMAX OF GAY WEDDING
JOURNEY TO HONOLULU
Joe Doesn't Seem to Care Though
There May Be a Fight Over
FOrtune---No Love
Was Lost.

San Francisco, Oct. l2.-The recol-
lections of wedding trip to Honolulu,
the rollicking times on shipboard, and
the little family jar that occurred
soon after the arrival OF the Australia
at the Paradise of the Pacific, is re-
called today by the filing of a divorce
suit by Mrs. Maud NJ. Nolan, whose
maiden name was Maud Treadwell,
against her husband ]. +. Nolan, vice
president of the Nolan Shoe Company.
Mrs. Nolan charges incompatibility
of temper and asks for a division of
the common property Of the couple.
Mr.. Nolan does not male reply, but
seems willing to allow The law to take
its course so far as the divorce Is con-
cerned, but he may fight the case on
the grounds that part Of the fortune
which his wife desires to secure is not
legally what the lady is entitled to.
For some months past II had been
rumored that there was ~ be separ-
alton of the Noians, as T. was said that
the husband had expressed the deter
mination to go his way, and do as he
wished without heed to the protesta-
tions of his wife. On the other hand
Mrs. Nolan was not as fond of domes-
tic life as most good wives and her
utter disregard for the promise to
love, honor and obey" has been COM
mon talk among those who know her.
The Nolans were married several
years ago and on the occasion Of their
honeymoon they created n great deal
of talk among the people in the Hawa-
iian Islands on alleged account of the
reports of the lurid voyage Of the
steamship from San Francisco THAT
bore them to Honolulu. 1t was said
that the couple quarreled soon after
landing at the dock and there was even
talk of separation then, when the we'd
ding tour was scarce commenced. Mat
tiers were patched up and the couple re-
turned to the city.
There never has been much real af-
lection wasted between the woman and
the man since that voyage across the
blue ocean. Both were fond of excite
ment and neither restricted nor at
tempted to restrict their inclinations
for what they termed good time. y
However, there had been so much gos-
sip about a possible separation that
persons paid little heed 20 what appear
ed to be an old story until this morn
ing when Mrs. Nolan formally filed
her complaint and retired to await her
husbands answer.

AStOr not Blamed
For His Father

New York, Oct. II. - Surrogate
Thomas has appointed Waldorf Aston,
the young son of William Wldorf AS
tor, who has only recently attained his
majority, an executor Of the will Of the
original John Jacob Aston.
The will under which the young man
is thus made an executor, was made
about fifty years. One OF It's provi-
sions is that whenever the surviving
executors shall number no more than
two, by death or otherwise, those two
shall have the power of naming with
the sanction Of the courts, third ex-
ecutor. ..r
About two months ago William Wal
dorf Astor and Charles Peabody Jr
went before Surrogate Thomas and
stated that they were thu only surviv-
ing executors of the will and that they
wished Waldorf Aston to be named as
a co-executor. At the time the dues-
ton of young Astor's place Of residence
and citizenship was raised. His IA
Their some time ago foreswore allegi-
ance to the United States and became a
subject Of the Queen of England. This
matter was arranged by Mr.. Peabody
making an affidavit in which he alleged
that the young man was born in the
United States and that he had never
taken any steps to foreswear allegiance
to this country and that therefore he
was a citizen and eligible to the posi-
tion as executor. On the strength of
this affidavit the appointment was
made, Surrogate Thomas thereby vir-
tually deciding that Waldorf Aston is
citizen of this country even though
his father is not and that he has been
educated abroad and spent the greater
number of years of his life in England.
