SAy OouucA1 ueG IN regular
session Tuesday evening.
The matter of repairs in the city
hall, renovation upstairs, was referred
to the building committee.
The mayors appointment of Mrs.
9. a. Brown, Mrs. c. A. Weyer-
hseuser and A. R. Davidson az
members of the library board, was
approved.
A cement crosswalk was ordered
constructed on the east side of the

avenue southeast.
The surety bond Of John Jordan, for
construction Of cement walks. was ap-
proved. 3
A petition for opening up Fourth
street southwest was brought up by
Alderman CLARK, and the matter
referred to the street committee. The
erection of the new Droazkowski
building has shut people off from
traversing the block diagonally, and
about two blocks will have to: be
cleared to give them free passage.
A long petition signed by NJ. NJ.
Williams. G. A. Lindbergh. O. Du-
clos. and many otherss residents --of
Pike Creek, was presented. The bur-
den of the document WAS that the city
had taken large amount of territory
from the town CT Pike Creek in 1889,
that the city for 10, these many years,
had enjoyed the taxes of this partic-
ular region, that the city was not
taking proper care of the north, west
and south highways, that such condi~
tion was intoleraple, and greatly to
the discredit of the city and the dis
comfort OF those using the sAid high
ways, that If the council would not
or could not repair these highways.
that steps be taken to give back to
Pike Creek the territory stolen from
1t. and that the newspapers publish
the document that the people at large
may know where the fearful respon-
sibility lies. The council laid the Pc
tition, reluctantly but firmly, on the
table. It is claimed, that with the
possible. exception Of one place, which
will be fixed. that the highways
in question, are in excellent repair,
and that the roads in the town out
side Of the limits are the ones that
need attention.
The clerk wes instructed to adver-
tise for 100 cords of WOOD for the city
hall.
The council adjourned to Friday
evening. Sept. 9th.

TREES FOR THE RIVER BANKS
Bureau of Forestry Prepares a New
System to Stop Eroding.


The bureau of forestry has devised
systems of tree planting for the river
banks, the sand-covered lands. and
the deeply eroded lands. The object
OF the first is TO prevent washing of
the banks, to protect the whole area
from the full force of floods, and in
time of overflow to check the tendency
to gully and cut new channels. The
last two systems of planting are for
ultimately retaining the now de
stroyed land and making them pro
duce in the meantime, a valuable wood
product while the work of reclaiming
is going on.
Much OF the damage that was caus-
ed in the great flood of 1903 is direct
ly traceable to crooks in the stream.
The soft bare banks should be GOV
cred with willows at the earliest pos
sible moment to prevent the stream
from again becoming crooked. In adj
dition to the protection of the caving
river banks and the reclamation OF
the Sanded and erOded lands, the land.
owners of the Kansas river valley
should Immediately cooperate to Sc
cure continuous belts of timber 250
feet wide on both banks of the stream.
Such protective belts will be far more
serviceable than bikes OF earth or ma
sonry in mitigating the destruction
that may occur from OverfiOws. The
future wealth and productiveness OF
the valley as a whole viii be largely
dependent upon the practice of for
estry for protection against devasta
ton of floods.

George AIDES new play is called
The College Widow" and is a satire
on modern college life 1t will be
produced in September in the Garden
theatre. in New York, under the direc-
ton OF Henry w. Savage. The Col
lege Widow" according to a descrip-
ton evidently authorized by MIR. AIDE,
has as its central character the village
belle in a university town. who dis
couraSes the matrimonial advances of
the towns young men and keeps up a
sort of a progressive filtration with
succeeding classes of college boys.
Every type of college town has known
her prototype. At Il she scOrns any
but seniors. at 20 she is willing to
smile upon a junior and at 81 the de
votiOns of sophomOres and freshmen
are welcome. The particular widow
in Mr.. AIDES play starts the action by
recruiting a freshman from the wiles
of the scouts of another and rival insti-
tuition. He is a football player with a
large high school reputation and both
colleges want him. He makes his
choice. but is waylaid and when the
widow" appears he nearly has been
cajoled into going into a football game
against the college which he at first
intended to honor by permitting it to
be his alma mater. From motives of
patriotism the girl flirts with him I'M
til she saves the day. The rest of the
play is said to bring in characteristic
college figures and to be enlivened by
peculiarly educational frolics and es-
capades.
