THE work of the committees in
naming the streets has caused
considerable discussion since the
result of their labors has become
known. The general opinion
seems to be that the plan adopted
was the simplest possible, but that
it is very confusing. For instance,
what was formerly Caddo street
north of Main is now A street east,
north; but on the south side what
was formerly Mill street becomes A
street east, south. thus making
South Caddo street B street east,
south. An irregularity is thus
cansed in the remaining streets
east unless another short street on
the north side is found to offset
Mill street and thus even matters
again.

The senate committee on Terri
tory affairs has amended the house
bill by giving the Dawes commits
sion $67 900 more than they origi
nally asked for. The first estimate
was $640, 900, including townsite
work, but the senate committee
will recommend the appropriation
of the $780, 900 and also $67 900
additional for the townsite work.
The house cut the appropriation
down to $500, 900 for all purposes.

the hrst greeting, turned to his
work and allowed the youngster TO
amuse himself as best he might.
Young Bryan found a loose chair

to the bottom, went to window
and began bouncing the piece of

paid no attention to the boy, who
gradually became SO interested in
his play that he leaned further out
OF the easement of the window.
"fighting Joe" happened to glance
up few moments later, and was
Mortified to see the lad hanging with
his whole body over the sidewalk.
and only the toes of his shoes
visible clutching the angle of the
window. He sat aghast for a mo-
ment then, rushing to the window
pulled the lad in by his legs and
landed him safely on the floor.
Speaking Of the occurrence after.
ward, Gen. Wheeler acknowledged
that young Bryan was within an
inch of being dashed to death on
the pavement below when he caught
sight of him.

He has been suffering for months
with that dread disease, cancer of
the tongue, and made a gallant fight
Tor his life, but on Monday, August

he was relieved of life's pain and
misery by the grim Angel of Death.
He was born in November, 1897,
the son of Samuel EIdowney.
whose parents came to America in

long been considered in the front

refused. He married Miss Anna
Louise Smith, of Allegheny, Pa,
and by her had two children, his
wife and one child surviving him.
