PAVING CONTRACT INCREASED

The council at It's meeting last Fri
day afternoon, increased very materi'
ally the extent of our paving territory.
The extensions are as follows:
Main from Central Ave. to Katy de.
pot; South Highland to the south line
of First Street; North Highland TO
the north line of Elm Street; South
Lincoln to the south side OF the alley
in the center of the block; North Lin
coin to the north line of Walnut st.
Now If the gentlemen in the west end
would insist on having the paving eX-
tended at least one block west, the
ground would be fairly covered as far
as Main Street is concerned.
The TIMES cOngratulates the coun-
Gil on this advance step. These ex'
tensions were urged by this paper ear
ly last fall as being necessary and we
are sure no one will regret the steE
after the work is once down. II is to
be hored our contractors will have
better weather for their work frou
this on.

RUNAWAY.

Miss Marie Heller had serious run
away last Thursday evening that re-
suited rather seriously for her. she
was drying the priests horse and had
small table in the buggy which she
was taking down to the Catholic fair
when the horse got scared as she was
coming down South Central Ave. She
got along all right till the horse got
opposite the priests house when 1t
turned suddenly into the drive way
upsetting the buggy and dashing Miss
Marie into a pile of brick.
She was severely bruised and had a
long cash cut across her face. She
was carried into the priests mouse
and Drs. Barker g. Barker were sum-
moned. They took her to their
Office where her wounds were proper
ly dressed. The buggy was pretty
well smashed up and the horse receiV-
ed some cuts.

~REFEREE'' IN TOWN TOPICS
HONORS q. OF MS QUARTER.
Heston Is the Only Other Western
Man to Be Given Il Place-F'Our
GOphers Are Placed on All-Western
Eleven and TFeS ON tile Second
Team.

Minnesota is rapidly getting a
name among, eastern football critics:
Referee" in the last number Of Town
Topics gives Sig Harris Of the gopher
eleven the position as quarterback on
the All-American team. AS only one
other western man, HestOn of Michi-
gan; Is put on the first eleven, and
only two, Maddox of Michigan and
Salmon Of Notre Dame, on the second,
this is g. signal honor for the stocky
Minnesota quarter. Referee has the
following to say of the westerners:
Harris will execute the game Is 1t is
planned. He will also use some shrewd
Judgment of his own. He will keep his
team going at a high speed, will help his
backs and do his share of the rushing and
punting. His line will know that he will
protect the goal from runners breaking
clear and that he will run back every
punt sent to him for a gain. Heston's
powerful plunges will be only equaled by
his marvellous work in the secondary de-
tense. In the rushing game we have Hes
ton, Foulke, Mitchell, Hogan, Turner and
Dewitt 1t would be unreasonable to ask
a better sextet, for they combine weight,
speed, tremendous strength and marvellous
endurance. Then, too, they would have
tho help of wonderful line. So much for
line plunging plays. Heston and Foulke
are equally adept at end running and it is
seldom that you see such speed in men SO
big and powerful. Then all the other men
are fast enough to make end plays sue
cessful if they ever could be- Harris is
fast"enough and heady enough to bring off
any tricks. Thus our offensive game lacks
neither speed, power nor versatility.

man of eastern birth and western
character, whose watch was a little

But" said he, eve are going to take

what difference does that make?"
After saying that the world has
changed since Americans first began to
talk about a canal, he referred to the
benefcent legislation Of the republican
party. He said: IS
To-day, thru such legislation, an
American dollar is worth 100 cents
everywhere on earth except in Wall
street, where stocks are manipulated.
The stock brokers are the real popu-

will have no more panics, and COM
