Richmond Amusement Com
pany Has in Mind Project
To Flood Athletic Field.
1T WOULD NO DOUBT PAY.
THERE is ALSO TALK OF a TO-
BOGGAN - SUITABLE PLACES
FOR ICE SKATING ARE VERY
SCARCE ABOUT HERE.

, Richmond is to have ice skating
and plenty of it, during the coming
winter if the plans of several mem
bers of the Richmond Amusement
company materialize. 1t is the plan TO
flood Athletic park during the winter
months. When frozen there would be
about five acre skating surface, one
of the largest ponds of the kind in
this section of the country. The wat
er will at no place be deep and the
children will be safe. For the rea-
son that there is much danger in
skating on the ponds ard streams sur
rounding Richmond, especially for the
children, the flooding of Athletic field
would be boon to the younger low
ers Of the outdoor sport.
1t cannot be said that the idea is
entirely original with Richmond. All;
the larger parks in the big cities have
such skating places in the winter
months, and not only do they afford a
source of great pleasure for young and
Old alike, but they are money makers
for the park management nts.
Athletic park is naturally adapted
for winter skating. BY placing a few
banks around the large field water
can be easily run into ii. A small
stream runs near the field and it is
thought that the course of this can be
changed enough to furnish a large
supply of the water needed. CITY wat
er will also be used.
Believe a Money Maker.
Friends OF the scheme think that it
would be one of the greatest money
makers for the amusement companv
that could be inauguratcd. Richmond
and surrounding country. it is assert
ed, affords very poor places for ice
skating, and it is thought a skating
fever would undoubtedly sweep the
city.
In addition 10 skating, few OF the
members of the organization feel that
long tobbogan would be a money
maker also. This can be constructed
at very little expense. The idea * tn
build a start about fifty feet above
the top of the hill at the west end of
the park, and run the toboggan to
the east This would entail much
work however, and would also reauire
a great deal Of care during the winter
months. Its money making possibil-
tiles, however, are not questioned.
1t is certain that the skating pro-
position will receive attention at the
hands of the Richmond Amusement
comDany At its meeting Thursday
night. Plans for next years base ball
team will also be drawn. 1t is the
hope Of the local association TO place
team in the field next year that will
be winner in every respect. Man
ager Clarence Jessup is corresponding
with number Of very likely players.

President Merrill of Board of
Public Works Confident
That Sewer Deadlock Is
About to Be Broken.
| DIVISION OF THE WORK
MAY SECURE BIDDERS.
If City Can Get the Sewer
Built Its Part Will Have
Been AcCompIished-Suits
Against City Dismissed.

President Merrill of the board of
public works is in a happy frame Of
mind. He is now confident that the
Northwest Second street sewer dead
lock, which has threatened to render
null and void the Northwest Second
street viaduct agreement between the
city and the p, c., G. & st. l.. rail
road company, will be broken before
the close of this year. If the city sue
ceeds in letting contracts for the
! building OF this sewer in two sections
the city will then have fulfilled ali its
terms of the agreement and work on
building the yiaduct. which the resi-
dents of FairvieW have fought for so
hard during the past five years, VIII
be started.
Are Taking Notice.
MI Merrill states that, since the an
nOuncement made that the Northwest
Second street sewer system would be
built in two sections, local and Ouc OF
town contractors have begun to sit
up and take notice. He states that 50
far five contractors have notified the
board Of public works that it is their
Intention to submit bids for one or
both sections of this sewer system.
MI Merrill stated that by dividing
up this job in two sections no contrac-
tor who took one or both sections
would be obliged to tie up much mon
ey in tie job. When the board first
passed a resolution to build this sewer
system the resolution provided thai
contractors submit bids for the gu
tire work, including lateral sewers.
This meant an investment Of about
$4S, 600
Under a recent act of the Indiana
legislature no contractor can receive
payment for a public Improvement un-
til the completion of the work. On
account of this law and the large
amount of money a contractor would
have to tie up in the Northwest Sec
ond street sewer work, all contract
ors fought shy of the job. Since the
board has reconsidered its original
resolution and has eliminated the lat
eral sewers, providing that only the
trunk mains Of the system snail De
49,
two sections il means that a cOntrac-
tor who submits a bid for making both
sections of the sewer will only have to
invest about 900 in the job. This
makes the Job attractive from con
tractors point of view ana next
month when the contracts arc let
there will probably be several bids i'll
the hands of the board.
Suits Are Dismissed.
In the circuit court the suits of the
p, c. G. & st. l.. railroad against the
City of Richmond and the c. r. & Ft.
w. railroad against the City of Rich
mond, which were the outgrowth of
the trouble between these railroad
companies and the city over the

plaintiffs In 1902 when the city
council and the board of public i'm
provements authorized this improve

question of inbreeding IS One rrs..
can be dwelt upon for considerable
length, but about the only general prop
osition is to discontinue as soon as
there are signs of deterioration Of the
stock, says Farm Poultry. This Is first
detected in the slower growing chicks.
AS soon as the rapidity of growth is
affected new blood should be infused.
Never inbred except for some trait or
traits that you wish to perpetuate. If
the male of the pair you have pur-
chased or contemplate purchasing IS a
very exceptional bird. he may be bred
to the best pullets. If the female is q
very exceptional bird, she may be mat,
ed to the best cockerel among the prog
eny with splendid results. If the size
and vigor of the stock seem to be up
to its standard, the young birds from
these matings may be mated together,
and sometimes the vigor will not be
affected even then, but nevertheless it
is about time to begin to look for new
blood.
