WILL RUSH ORDERS
FOR ASPHALT PAVING
Council Wants to Take Advantage of the
Present cheapness of Material.

If sufficient preliminary orders can be
cured and the consent of the property
owners obtained, contracts for street paw
ing aggregating $500, 900 in value will be
put on the market the next time bids are
received.
The desire is to take advantage Of the
present asphalt paving var and secure, if
possible, the $1.86 per square yard rate

street some few days ago. 1t is hardly
PROBABLE that the same figure will be

Preliminary orders for no less than five
streets, one of which, East Seventh street,

lucky contractors, were rushed through
at the last meeting of the board of alder

ALBERT KELSEY TALKS
OF The MODEL CITY
Philadelphia Architect De-
liyers a Highly Instruc-
tive Address Under the
Auspices Of the Woman's
Civic League That Is Full
of Suggestions Valuable
to Citizens of st. Paul.

Most American cities are woefully
down at the heel. St. Paul is q wonder
land compared with some of these yet
upon arriving in your city this morn
ing 1 must confess the first effect was
depressing" said Albert Kelsey, of
Philadelphia, architect and writer on
art subjects, in an address delivered
yesterday afternoon at the Commercial
club.
1T is unpleasant to come skulking
into a city through it's back yard" con-
unued Mr.. Kelsey, for no matter how
pleasantly that city may impress you
later on, first impressions are apt to
linger."
The subject of Mr.. Kelseys address
was "The Model City," and during the
course of it he explained, chiefly by
means of pictures, what those who con-
ceived and are carrying out the plan of
a model city exhibit for the ST. Louis
exposition, hope to accomplish by it.
Referring, during the course of his adj
| dress to st. Paurs new capitol, and it's
much discussed approaches, Mr.. Kelsey
said:
Il notice with pleasure that Mr.. Cass
Gilbert has not hesitated to recon-
mend the clearing out of several acres
in front and about your new state
building in order to secure for it an
adequate approach, and 1 am certain
I
plans can be carried out the capitol will
have beautiful approach and the APP
pearance Of the city itself will be re-
markedly improved"
The greater part of Mr.. Kelsey's adj
dress was not local, but it had local in
terest, for it showed how other Ameri-
can cities are meeting the problem of
civic improvement and how success
fully European cities, long ago, solved
those problems. By means of the pic
lures thrown on the screen during the
latter part of his address Mr.. Kelsey
gave his audience an interesting object
lesson, for these pictures showed the
old worlds, and then with sharply con-
trasting pictures, the new worlds neg
lect of method Of bringing out the
beauties of landscape and buildings.
The architect showed a scheme of his
own for the treatment Of a focal point
in a congested district. A picture of a
small pavilion, built on good archi-
tectura1 lines, was thrown on the
screen, showing in the center foun-
tain. The view that followed showed an

which would also serve to illuminate
the fountain. The water of the foun-
tain could be used for flushing pur-
poses below.
Here in the Northwest" said Mr..
Kelsey, you have history to be proud
of. In Europe great minds have real
lied the Importance of keeping before
the people great deeds that have beer
accomplished. They do this, not for
the sake of the novelty, but to strike
home lesson. In America there are
phases of our civilization passing away
which should in some way be memori-
allied"
A number of pictures were thrown on
the screen to show what had been ac-
complished by foreign countries along
these lines. America, the speaker
thought, might follow the example Of
these countries.
1T is of the greatest Importance" he
said, that we hold up our heroes more
prominently" Yet the speaker warned
his audience that there was danger OF
this country carrying the matter OF
statue erection to absurd lengths.

BREWER FIVE DEFEATED,
Minneapolis Y. M. c. A. Basketball Team
Has Easv Time With +ha Eorae+are

The U. o. F. basketball team from Mil
Waukee was given a hard beating by the
Minneapolis Y. M. G. A quint in fast
game at the association building last
evening. The Minneapolis boys got the
jump on the Foresters right at the start
and scored goal after goal against their
opponents, until a total Of 48 points had
been piled up. The visitors scored 8
points.
The Y. NJ c. A. team passed the ball
accurately and otherwise showed good
judgment. The team work was especially
brilliant. and back of this was speed sell
dom seen on basketball court. The To-
Gals were particularly strong and sew
eral times the sphere was put into the
basket only a few seconds after the ball
had been put in play. The work of Best
and Sindell showed up to good advantage
for the Y. M. G. A. crew.
Although it appeared to be a hopeless
task of the Foresters from the start
the visitors never gave up, and played
with vim till the very finish. Costly FUN
bles, wild passes and lack of team work
were responsible for the poor showing
made by the visitors. The teams played
in the following order.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jan. 9.-Western
league clubs claim the services of two
players signed by CantilIon, of the Mil
waukee American association club for
next season, Colorado Springs asserting
thet 1t signed Hemphill to a contract last

Denver club, says he suspended Reilly
two years ago for leaving the team with
out a moments notice and that the sus-
pension has never been raised.
To these assertions Treasurer HavenOr.

about the claims the Colorado Springs and
Denver clubs make and that as both Reil-

OF the Pasteur institute at the city hos
pitaI to q reporter of the Sun the other
day; but there is no hydrophobia in Eng
land or Australia" The doctor continued:
This state of affairs has been brought
about by medical scieLce and legislation
combined. One of the fundamental princi-
pies of rabies is that no animal can con-
tract the disease unless it comes in con-
tact with another animal afflicted with it.
1t does not develop in an animal from any
any circumstances of nature, but is trans
mitted from one to another by contact.
In England and Australia the disease
was first completely stamped out by dras-
tic measures, and then legislation was
called into sservice to regulate the i'm
