CITY NOT APPROACHED
Riverside Park Project Still in the
Hands of West Side Improve
ment Association.

The West Side park project is still
in the hands of the West Side I'm
provement Society. there having as
yet been no formal presentation of
the matter to either the city council
or the Board of Works. There has
been SO much encouragement given
the West Side society, however. that
the members feel that when the city
is given a chance to act it will pass
upon the matter favorably. It is con-
fdently expected by the society that
next summer will witness the first
work on Riverside Park.

ASKED TO RETURN FEES
DEMAND MADE ON SMITH
Commissioners Acting on Advice of
Attorney Robbins, Will Resort to
Courts if Necessary to Get Back ..in
and Out" Fees.

AS had been anticipated, the Board
of Wayne County Commissioners has
made a formal demand upon Sheriff
Smith for the return of lin and out
fees paid him during his term of of.
fee The aggregate amount of these
fees is s542. The commissioners in
resolution adopted yesterday, recite
the fact that the fees were paid to the
sheriff under mistake" in the law
the Appellate Court having year ago
ruled that such fees were valid, and a
week ago reversed itself by handing
down a decision to the fact that such
fees were not valid.
Sheriff Smith collected the fees in a
legal manner, the law being held valid
at the time his demand was made and
favorably acted upon by the commits
sioners. Sheriff Smith is not oppos-
ing the law, but he believes there is a
question as to whether fees paid him
at a time when the law was held con
stitutional, shall be returned. How
ever. he will likely abide by the decis-
ion of his attorney, TO whom he has re-
ferred the matter. In many other
counties of the State the same situa-
tion has presented itself and in some
instances the claim has been made
that fees paid which were legal at the
time they were paid, according to the
Of the law of the higher
courts, may be retained. The reso-
luton adopted by the commissioners
provides for the beginning of suit

that he is legally entitled to retain

WHISTLES FOR CARRIERS
BETTER MAIL SERVICE
Postman Will Announce Themselves
With Meiodious "Toot, loot"
During the Hoiidays-Vicious Dogs
Give Carriers Trouble.

Although Christmas is yet sixteen
days off, Postmaster Spekenhier has
presented his city carriers with small
but very useful presents in the shape
of whistles, for use on their various
routes.
The whistles will improve the de-
man can give quick and more eftici-
ent service Hereafter the postmen
will blow their whistles at the begin
ming and in the center of each
square, along their routes, SO as to
give notice to their patrons that they
are coming, and those persons who
have heretofore waited anxiously for
the coming of the men in gray, can
now go about their duties and still
not have horrors of missing the mail
man.
The carriers have had great
deal of trouble with vicious dogs who
are inclined to take a decided liking
for gray trousers Several of the men
have been bitten Last week Billy
Niewoehner was bitten, but the own
er of the dog, later killed it.
AS the law states that the postmen
are not required to deliver mail
where vicious dog is kept, it is not
necessary for the Richmond men to
take chances The postman can now
blow their whistles and the residents
can come to the gate and get their
mail
