practicing economy. They began
with general expenses, and have
finally reached the payroiis. The
big financial concerns have made no

scores of the smaller ones have been

In addition to the trimming of sal

lost heavily in speculation. Several
times during the past few months it
seemed that the bottom had been
reached; that prices could not posi-

The city board of public works will
go out and inspect the new Southeast
Boulevard today.
This boulevard was built by ]. D.
Sherwood and others, and was recent
Iy accepted by the city as gift.
Complaints made at the city hall
by people forced to use the boule-
yard would indicate that the city

reports made the boulevard is. but
little better than trail. and one of
the city commissioners said this
morning that. judging from reports,
it will cost the city at least $4,000
to put the boulevard in proper shape.
Inasmuch as the city has accepted the
boulevard, the municipality has as
sumed responsibility for the thor
ough fare being in proper condition,
and. no difference what the cost may
be. the street must be put in proper
shape.

Has Patrick Clark thrown up his
bond ON the Blue Ledge mine in Sis

ton is the topic of conversation
among mining men familiar with the
inside history of the deal on the

belief that Clark Is simply biding his
time until better terms can be seeur-
ed from the owners.

CLARK and who was in camp several
months in connection with the de-
velopment of the property, said this
morning.: "Clark's bond does not ex-

wheeler declared that the residents in the
neighborhOOd concerned We're opposed to
the erection of a ball park, and that he
would vote against the resolution. As
Semblyman Van Slyke voted with him. but
the assembly passed the measure.
When the resolution reached the board
of aldermen. which followed the assem-
bly,, 1t was quickly sent to the committee

Present at the meeting were T. L. Blood
and number of others having homes near
the proposed park, and it was at their
suggestion that the measures were sent
to the committee. Later in the evening
Aid. Dobner secured consent to a special
meeting of the board for next Monday
evening. and then the future of the down
