STOP THE PAVING.
INDUCTION Proceedings Brought by
western Avenue Residents.

The paving Of Western avenue be-
tween Huntoon and Twelfth streets
was summary stopped this morning by
an injunction proceedings brought be-
fore Judge Dana of the district court
by Hazen & Cav, attorneys for pro-
perty owners living on the block named.
The property owners bringing the in
junction are John T. Stanton, W. f.
Culver. George Lux, and S. Gunther.
The injunction is the elimination of
the trouble that has been going on
some time. The specidca tons as oTigi-
nally made were changed upon repre-
sensations made by property owners
and in making the change the city has
run into this tieup of the contract.
Holiday park a triangular park
which stretches from Huntoon to
Twelfth streets. lies in the center area
Western avenue the park boundary
Just Oug into the street more percepu-
bly, than on the Polk street side. In
drawing up the specification for the new
pavement originally a slice would nave
been taken off of the park and the iron
fence would have had to be moved
backward several feet Rather than to
have the park affected, property own
ers living across the street and west
from the park offered to sacrifice part
Of their parking and have the specff-
cations redrawn to move the entire paw
ing westward.
This arrangement was SatlSIdclodiiJ
adjusted with the city council, the spec
ihca tons redrawn and the paving work
commenced. Then r. L. Sare, who lives
at the corner of Western avenue and
Twelfth street objected and asked that
the paving IN front of his place be curb
ed in order to save shade trees standing
in the parking. IN filing his objections
with the city and a conference with the
city engineer it was decided to curve
the paving back a distance of about 100
feet save the trees in the parking and
make the pavement come out so that
it would conform more uniformly with
the new block of paving between
Twelfth ana KING streets. Just north
The contra ctors received their instrue-
lions and proceeded with their work.
The curbing was laid and one course Of
brick was laid, with the contractors
ready to commence laying the second
and final course today when the object
ing property owners got together, hired
attorneys and brought injunction pro-

HOLIDAY is BACK.
Has Nothing to say About His Candi-
dacy for Mayor.

+ Councilman &. X Holiday. who has
been in Chicago and New York for the
past two weeks. has returned with a
new Yale button in his coat and an
elusive smile which turned into a
frcwn when he was asked about his
candidacy for mayor.
Plenty of time yet; plenty Of time.
All this long beautiful fall and the
winter before US. Too early to say
anything. I am for the best man in
this race. Let the people decide who
they want; it's the people who decide
these things. Let them say who TIA ey
want" in this wise Mr. Holiday un-
bosomed himself. Really 1 haven
anything to say on the subject.
I'VE want a whole lot more Of peo-
pie in Topeka. That's what we need
More people and we are going to get
them
All of which leads one to believe
that If Holiday does run it will be
with a campaign banner on which a
stork will be rampant with bottle OF
baby's food couchant. Roosevelt sys-
tenn of increase of population takes

CONDUCTOR WHO HAD PUNCH
George Thompson Disposes of Two Bad
Men Who Wouldn't Pay.

George Thompson. a conductor on an
Oakland street ear, proved yesterday
afternoon that he was a little more
than the equal of a couple of toughs
who refused to pay their fare and also
to get off the car. After Thompson got
busy with his fists he elected the men
from the car in short order. The af-
fray occurred on an outbound trip.
On the return trip of the car Thomp-
son was accompanied by an inspector
for the railway company and q couple
of city detectives but they could find
no trace of the bad men Affairs of
this kind are not uncommon on the
Oakland line and the conductors are
beginning to arm themselves.
