The streets and sidewalks are being
cleared of grass and weeds, and old drains
are being cleaned out and new ones made.
The present council is carrying out the
platform of better streets and drainage.
DR.. E. K. Hardin died at his home in
Glover, Chester county, on Friday in the
55th wear of his age. DR.. Hardin prac-
ticed his profession successfully at Bates
burg until he was stricken with paralysis
a few years ago, when he moved to his
old home in Chester county. DR.. Hardin
was the father of Mr.. E. K. Hardin, Jr,
who taught in the Fitting School last year.
Mr. J. D. Copeland is having a cement
walk put down in front of his store, and
MIR. W. D Rhoad will also put the same
kind of pavement infront of the stores oc-
cupied by L. G. Price and G. E. Bamberg.
We ought to have cement walks on both
sides of Main street, and we would be
Glad to see city council have the work
done and require the property ones to
bear half of the expense, which we feel
sure would be satisfactory.
City council has had the old cemetery
on Railroad Avenue cleaned up. All the
thick underground has been cut away,
the trees trimmed up, and the ground
thoroughly cleaned off. This work was
much needed, as the place had gotten to
be an eye sore. Situated as it is on the
principal residence street of the town, it
is pity that those who have their dead
buried there do not fence it in and keep
the place in nice shape.

No merrier session has lulled the
fanatics within the canvas stockade
of the Grays this season. Hackett, al
ways popular locally, was again the
center of entertainment His techni-
que in running down fouls is worth the
admission. The plump Mr.. Kostal,
who performed in the box, once beat
the Grays when they were in an en-
bryo state at Sioux City, in the first
practice game Of the season. Doubt
less this accounts for the keen de-
light the local athletes took in pelting
him. Nine hits they got, and Mr..
Kostal passed one and wildpitched

Torrance was safely landed Mr.. Disch

LOCAL COMMENT

Painting is not a difficult trade. to
pie are hunting the town over for
painters and yet there are able bodied
men complaining because they are I'M
employed. Two strings to working
mans bow would often insure a raore
certain bag of game.
The auto drivers Of the city are all
going to come into disrepute unless
two or three of the more reckless are
regulated in their driving. Mayor In
gledues office his been besieged with
requests from citizens to get after So
and-so, Hell kill somebody yet and
an ordinance is contemplated. 1t is
true that several of the more exper-
fenced and expert drivers can MAIN
tain fast speed with comparative safe
ty, because Of the control they have
of their machines, but the pedestrian
can not be made to believe it and his
hair stands on end just the same when
a devil wagon comes down the street
at twenty or thirty miles an hour. AT
best it is so inconsistent to regulate
the speed of railway trains to six miles

traverse the public streets at twenty
miles an hour, that the people are not
going to stand for it Auto drivers
must regulate themselves if they would
avoid trouble and if one picks up a
dog now and then he had better Keep
still about it, for the average citizen
can't see how a dog can come to grief
under an automobile and yet the
streets be entirely safe for his babies.
Again the merchants have already
learned that occasionally farmers are
kept away from the city because their
teams brighten at the autos ana the

CALLS AUTO DRIVERS.
Mayor Will First Warn, Then Arrest
Fast and Careless Drivers.

Constant complaints, which have
been laid before Mayor 1ngledue. re-
garding the total disrespect of the
law and carelessness of auto drivers,
has stirred the city's executive to ac-
ton. EARLY next week Mr.. 1ngledue
will mail to every car owner in the
city. as well as prospective owners. a
letter requesting them to meet him at
some near date yet to be determined.
At that meeting he will lay before the
automobiles the state law, and es-
pecially those parts of it regarding the
speed limit. He will then, warn them
that the first infraction of that law
afterwards, will be followed by arrest.
He purposes to treat these men, many
of whom are his personal FRIENDS,
kindly, but in case the warning is dis
regarded, he will apply to the council
for an ordinance, with the aid of which
he can prosecute more promptly than
by the state law.
Mr.. Ingledue says the complaints
have been SO numerous lately that he
can no longer disregard them, and he
now intends to take the trouble in
hand, and see If the danger of life and
limb from fast drivers cannot be les
sened.
