{ For the sake of division. the prop erty of the late Mrs. Joanna Dove was sold at auction yesterday afternoon. the total amount of the sales being $117,150. All of the property, with one exception, that of . residence at 314 Washington street. which was bid in by Mrs. John Dove for $s.900. was occurred by Messrs. D. O. and J. F. Dove.
 There were several pieces of valua- ble Montgomery real estate to be sold and there was a large crowd with plenty of spirited bidding. The four stores on the corner of Montgomery and Lee streets brought the highest price of the day. being sold for $7s.100. This sale was the most hotly contested one of the day.
 The original plan for selling this property was to sell each store sep arateiy, but 1t was not carried through because the total amount was not thought to be up to the real value of the property. The first plan was set aside and the second plan was to sell the stores in a lump. This plan was carried through. the stores bringing the estate $7s,100.
 list of the sales of pieces of real estate follows:

TO IMPROVE STREET
pEeTDENTs or SOUTH COURT SEEK
 BHTTERMENTS.
Az Board of Revenue t0 Widen Sna Gravel Thoroughfare for I've
 lailss, South of Winnie street.

I At the regular weekly meeting Of the County Board of Revenue, held yes kerday morning, petition from the citisens of South Court Street was read. requesting the Board to widen and ex- tend that street from Winnie Street for a distance of about two miles. ana to also have 1t properly graveled.
 The petition. which was presented by Major R. E. Steiner. was signed by all of the property owners along the proposed extension, with only one ex~ ception, and they agreed to donate the land necessary for the widening of the street. n
 The Board took the petition under consideration and will announce its de- cision next Monday. It Is very proo- able that the petition will be granted. It has been pointed out that such inn provements on South Court Street would result in an increase of revenue for the county and would also greatly enhance property values in that sec ton of the city and county.
 Montgomery is to have new ceme- tery for white people. This question was definitely settled yesterday when the Board of Revenue granted permis- sion to c. W. Covington, head of the new cemetery corporation, to estab- fish the new burial grounds, about one mile beyond Highland Park.
 The County Board of Health Recom- mended that permission be granted. The cemetery will be exclusively for whites and will cover an area of about 160 acres.
 The County Board of Equalization heldia short session yesterday, imme- diately after adjournment of the Board of Revenue. The tax collector was instructed to notify all taxpayers whSse property assessments have been rai8ed to appear before the Board next Monday and show cause If any, why they should not pay taxes upon the increased assessments.

Wind Does Damage and Lightning
 Strikes Methodist Church.
 The heavy wind which accompanied the storm of yesterday afternoon did some slight damage to the trees. tele- phone and telegraph wires in the city. A pole holding a great number of wires near the Western Freight Depot was snapped in two, the wires falling to the street. No other serious dam age has been reported.
 The lightning, which also accom- panied the storm, struck the edge of the roof of the Court Street Methodist Church, knocking off few tiles. Some of the tiles did not fall to the side walk, but hung balanced on the edge of the gutter, making it dangerous for passersby in case of wind or more rain. The damage was slight, the church not being injured on the interior by the bolt.
 Tn the auditorium of the City Hall a gust of wind blew. out window and broke several panes of glass. In the Council Chamber. nearly ali of the lhk stands on the desks were blown to the floor, the contents of many spilling out on the carpet.

Madison, Wis, Oct. 2.-It never will
be known whether the Wisconsin or
the Iowa baseball league produced the
better ball team this year. The final
and deciding game of the champion
ship series between Freeport, the pen
nant winner of the Wisconsin league.
and Waterloo, pennant winners of the
Iowa league, which was to have been
played here yesterday afternoon. was
called in the first of the fifth inning
on account of rain, with the score
to in Freeport's favor. Later the
management of the two teams called
the series off entirely.
Previously each team had won two
games, and yesterdays contest was to
be the fifth and deciding one.
The feature of the game as far as it
was played was a home run by Bar
low, Freeport's first baseman, who
banged the ball over the right field
fence in the third inning. When the
game was called in the first of the
fifth inning Freeport had a man on
third base with two men out.
With the exception of the home run
Freeport did not get man past first
base. Waterloo Jared even worse, ge:-
ting only one man as far as second,
and only four men to first.

on account of darkness. Score:

HUMMlNG BIRD DINNER.
Live Feathered Beauties In Little For
est a Table Decoration.

est d bdDie bSCOTdIiOn.
Having acquired the dinner giving
habit in Newport, Miss Violet Cruger
plans further triumphs in that line and
already has under way a humming bird
dinner which is expected to throw all
the monkey dinners, chimpanzee lunch
shade, says u correspondent of the New
York Press, for Miss Cruger's idea is
aesthetic. When she gives the coming
dinner, in the center of the table will
stand Il great mound shaped glass COW
er, with u miniature tropical forest I'M
der it. Blossoms that grow outdoors
only in the tropics will be mingled with
rare ferns, and through the little forest
a tiny brook is to run. Several dozen
htlmming birds are to be loosed under
the glass cover, and it is promised that.
deluded by the flowers reminiscent of
their own cline, they will make them
selves at home, to the entertainment
of the guests and the pride of Miss Vio-
let Cruger'
The society girl has sent to the south
for as many different kinds of hum
ming birds as can be captured and also
has drawn on Cuba for a supply. OF
course the wee birds will not live long
in this chilly north, but it is believed
they will survive until Miss Cruger's
dinner shall have passed into history.
Beside each plate will lie small jew
eled humming bird with the guests in
itials inset in diamonds-brooches for
the women, scarfpins for the men.

is to destroy the germs. and the only
