WILL PAVE ITS STREETS.
rhoroughfare'. Bad Condition H
Aroused City of Uniontovn.


 Uniontown. Jan. ,12.--(Special. )-The roads and streets have been in hor- rible condition. worse than for many years. This has stirred the citizens and as a result a mass meeting was held last night to discuss the improve ment of the streets.
 It was decided to spend $20,0O0 in paving the streets. It has not been decided positively whether bonds will be issued, as 1t is believed that the cit- izens of the city will subscribe the whole amount needed. At the meeting last night $S,000 was subscribed. This ought to be a feather in the cap of the little city, as it has just spent about $20,000 in improving its water and electric light plants.
 The experimental road being built by the United States Government has been very much delayed by the rains and mud but it will be completed soon and then the machinery and the superin- tendents of the work can be used in building streets.

Shit fer sso.OoO Damages.

A damage suit, that of Mrs. Ella Stoeckinger vs. the Pensacola Electric and Terminal Railway Company, was commenced in the Circuit Court today before Judge Carter It is for $3O,0O0 which is claimed by the plaintiff on ac- count of the death of her husband, who was killed on one of the company's lines about a year ago. He was day turnkey at the police station and had just gone off duty and boarded a car, but instead of taking a seat stood on the front platform. Suddenly he lost his balance and in the effort to save himself grasped the gate. This, how ever, gave way and swung directly in front of the car, where he fell and was horribly mangIed. The ear had no fem der and this is the main contention in the suit, the law requiring all cars to be equipped with same.

they represent considerable number

would be brought into harmony with

were willing to trust to the usual
method of negotiation with the forest

wrong which might be occasloned by
any order or regulation.
The visitors stated they were inter-

creek reserve created. They prefer
