BETTYS BUYS OIL LAND
Former Topeka Man Makes Big
Purchases i'm Utah.

l. L. Bettys, formerly building con-
tractor of Topeka, but since then of San
Francisco, has closed deal for a tract
of land in Utah IL miles long and s
miles wide. The lands are located in
the Green river district and are be-
lieved to be rich in oil products.
Mr.. Bettys went to Salt Lake City
less than two weeks ago for the pur-
pose of looking over the situation and
on last Friday night the transfer of the
property from the Milton Land and Oil
company into his hands took place.
Bettys has been dealing in California
oil properties for a good while and only
lately closed a million dollar transact
ton in that country. He declares that
as soon as machinery can be brought
in the Utah fields will be developed He
believes that one of the richest oil dis
tricts In the United States is that where
he has lately secured holdings. Ac-
cording to his statement oil oozes to
the surface and much of the shale that
can be picked up will burn at the
touch of a match.
Mr.. Bettys came here about two years
ago from San Francisco and after do
ing several jobs of building contracting
around town, he returned to the coast
about a year ago. The transaction of
last Friday in which he figured was the
largest single transfer of land which
ever took place in Utah.

AND HERE'S ANOTHER.
Delays in Opening Kistler Street Still
Bobbing Up.

Another hitch in the opening up of
Kistler street has occurred. This hitch
Will cost the city about SIS for legal
advertising, and result in the postpone
ment of the sale of the Maria Martin
house which was to have occurred Sat
urday.
Mrs. Maria Martin owns the only
house which stands in the way of OPP
ening up the street. She has agreed 20
settle on the terms proposed by the
city, and in expectation that everything
was all right the advertisement for the
sale was printed as required by law.
Yesterday the city received from Mrs.
Martin the abstract of title which she
said was correct in all particulars. 1t
was found that this abstract was 20
years behind time; that all the trans
fers of the property from 1880 to date
are not mentioned In order to make it
certain that there are no clouds on the
title, the abstract will have to be
brought up to date. and Mrs. Martin
will be obliged to have this done before
the city will go ahead with the sale of
the house. When the abstract is per-
fected, the sale of the house will be
re-advertised, and as soon as it can be
moved away, the street so long delayed
will be opened for travel

THERE is A GAP.
No Ordinance to Prevent Burning
Leaves on Brick Pavement.

There is a law against burning dead
leaves and refuse on asphalt and wood
pavement, but none against making
pavement This peculiar state of affairs
has been discovered by Street Commits
siOner Snyder. who started in with the
intention of stopping the people who live
on the brick paVementS from burning
up leaves raked from their lawns out
into the brick paved streets. There is
no way of stopping this practice ex-
cept by the passage of new ordi-
nance
When the anti-bonfire ordinance was
passed, Topeka had no pavement except
asphalt and wood, and had never heard
of vitrified brick. That was the reason
the omission occurred
Street Commissioner Snyder declares
that it Injuries the vitrifed brick to
build bOnf1res on them.
''Of course it is not as bad as burning
leaves on the asphalt or wood pave
ment." said Mr.. Snyder, but l find that
q hot IRE of leaves on the brick pave
ment causes the bricks to crack and
check The fire heats one side of the
brick, and thus causes unequal expan-
sion. The result is that the brick
cracks or pieces split off from it. It is
against the law to rake the leaves into
the street for any purpose except to
have them hauled away, however. and
believe have the authority to stop
all kinds of bonfires under this ordi-
nance
within a few days I expect to start
out several teams to clean out the dead
leaves from under crossings. We have
cleaned the leaves out of the streets
pretty well, but the crossings must be
opened up before it rains or the gut
tiers Will dam up with leaves

CIVIL SERVICE EXTENDED.
It Is to Be Made to Include Rural
Delivery Carriers.

Washington, Nov. 14.-About 200 en-
ployes in the executive branch of the
rural free delivery service of the post
office department will be brought into
the civil service by an order of Presi-
dent Roosevelt which it is understood
will be issued within a week or two
These employees are clerks special
agents and inspectors. The 5000 rural
free delivery carriers throughout the
country will not be brought into the
civil service under the order, but they
will be taken in at some later date
Their civil service status is likely to be
somewhat different from that of those
first included, though the form of the
regulations governing them has not
yet been passed upon.

CALLS DOWN CONTRACTORS.
Labor Commissioner Says Fort Scott
Men Are Violating Law.

w. L. A johnson, state labor com
missioner, has notified the contractors
on the new Bourbon county jail at Fort
Scott, that he has been informed that
they have been violating the eight hour
law, and he has warned them not to dc
SO in the future.
The contractors claim that the law
makes exception and allows overtime
in emergency cases, and they have taken
advantage of this provision, alleging
that the present temporary Jail is not fit
to keep prisoners in in cold weather.
They also claim they are only working
their men eight hours a day at present
because of the shortness of the days.

ANOTHER TARIFF ROW.
One Is Now Brewing With Denmark
Over Chocolate.

Copenhagen, Nov. 1.-THE govern
ment of Denmark is considering the
most effective method of retaliation
against the United States should the
diplomatic representations now being
made in behalf of the Danish chocolate
exporters fail The exporters allege
overvaluat ton of chocolate by the New
York customs officials. The exporters
deny that Denmark pays a bounty on
chocolate and claim that Copenhagen
should be accorded the same treatment
as America gives to other free ports.
1t is pointed out that Denmark will
suffer little loss in the case of retalia-
tory duties, since her exports to the
United States are only $750,000. against
Americas $20000,000 exports to Den
mark.
