Various improvements Made In
Guiding New Pews.

proved in several ways during the past
week or so. Various repairs have been
made. The floor has been painted and
new pews of the shapeliest pattern have
been put in, so easy in fact that the

will have to be given to his sermons to
keep his audience awake.

day when the Rev. Rust Of Schaller,
Ia. will occupy the pulpit morning and
evening.
Rev. Barstow will continue his bible
study work as in the past.

OPENING FOURTH STREET
Joseph Michaletz at Work on His
Contract.

Joseph Michaletz commenced work
on his contract for opening Fourth
street crossing over the 500 track yes
terday. This crossing is going to make
a great improvement in the appear
ance of that part of the city and is be-
ing done at very moderate cost.
In this connection, there are some
pitches in the street south OF the track
which ought to receive attention.
There are two or three of them that
could be largely remedied in couple
of days. A very small outlay would
not only make pleasant Improvement
for travel on that street, but the I'M
provement in appearance would doubly
repay the outlay.

"A bill for car fare and other eX-
penses for Oscar Nelson who was taken
to his home at Glidden, was agreed to
be a bill for the county to pay.
For the Street and Bridge committee,
AID. Nelson reported petition for
grading Miner avenue from First TO
Fourth streets. He said that as no
grade survey wos on record there was
no way of doing this work in proper
manner. That to approximate grade
would mean the removal of something
like 22OO yards of earth, that there
was no place to put it until we know
where the grade lines are. Alderman
Baker reported that certain parties de-
sired dirt for lot grading and that they
would haul it out of the street. Aid.
Nelson said that to make the cut would
REQUIRE considerable work on the side
streets, and that in the future the city
might want the dirt to fill other places
and have to buy it if given away now.
The mayor suggested that the COM
mittee determine how much the parties
desiring dirt would do toward reducing
expense of its removal, how much the
CITY needs for fills now needed and to
what extent this would do the proposed
work. That foot might be taken off
the hill now and more later. The

and telegraph wires are down, and the
fun extent of the damage can only be
estimated. Through a tract eight
miles long and one to two miles wide
the destruction of property was COM
plete.
Parties were sent out from Blue
Mounds to help rescue cattle and people
pinioned in the wreckage, working late
into the night. Some of the hailstones
were to 8 inches in diameter. All
