couraees Others Till Assist
ance Arrives and
Saves Them.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug. 15.-Plung--
ing into Lake Okauchee yesterday and
swimming into deep water sixty teet from
shore to the rescue of three men who
were drowning, was the brave act of Lii
liam Vizay, daughter of Professor Vizay,
teacher of dancing at West Point MISS
Vizay is about sixteen years of age.
Three young men had been swimming
out to a sand bar eighty feet from shore
and back again. Becoming exhausted
they started to return for the last time
to shore. One became frightened as his
strength gave way and seized his COM
panions. All three were on the point of
drowning when Miss Vizay. who was in
her bathing suit, plunged in and went
to the rescue.
She dived. brought one to the surface
and was supporting him and encouraging
the others when w. j. thinner went to
her assistance. Together they towed the
three men ashore. Two were so nearly
exhausted that it was almost an hour
before they were able to be taken to the
hotel.

Many Auto Schools

The rapid growth of the automobile in
dustry and the consequent demand for
men to handle the cars has brought into
existence numerous automobile schools
where the care and mechanism of the car
may be learned. Young men from the
country are flocking to the cities to be-
come chauffeurs, as the salaries paid are
much larger than in most of the ordinary
vocations for which they are fitted.
The pay of the chauffeur averages S25 a
week. the work is pleasant and healthful,
and in many cases the owner of the car
pays the expenses of the driver, so that
his salary is clear profit. In Chicago and
New York particularly there is now a
great demand for men to drive CONNER
cial motor cars, and the reputable schools
have calls for more men than they can
supply. The oldest automobile school in
the west, the Chicago School of Motoring,
which has been in existence three years,
now has graduates scattered all over this
country and Europe, and the president,
Prof F. e. Edwards, says that capable
men are snapped up quickly.
"a short time ago." said he, lone of our
graduates of last year came in and said
that during the first four months after ne
had left the school he saved 5000 of his
S4OO salary, as his employer made a tour
through Europe with his car and paid all
expenses. 1t is no wonder young men
forsake the farm and the counter when
such promising opportunities are offered
them"

D-PERMANENT STREET
IMPROVEMENT.

The recent rains have certainly
emphasized the necessity for some
permanent street improvements in
the city Of Ncwbcrry. Caldwell street
from Friend to Pratt street, which it
has been stated will be laid in viri-
fled brick, has been mud hole for
several days and at times IT has been
almost foot dcop in water. Some
thing should be done and done at
once, not only As to this portion Of
Caldwell street, but that portion Of
it from Boundary street to O'Ncall
street. II has also been mud hole
for several days. The truth of the
matter is. that if The money, which
has been spent upon the streets in
Ncwbcrry for the last several years,
had been Systematically put upon
permanent improvements in those see
tions of the city which are most in
need Of them and used by most Of
the people, there would have been
some decent streets here without the
expenditure of any additional money.
AS it is, there has not been that sys-
tenn which should exist in street im-
provcmcntS, and the money has been
spread ont so thin that nothing lasting
has been the result
The city should start and start at
once OH the permanent Improvement
of the streets, and it should start in
a systematic way, and with the pub
lie square as center, build out until
all sections were covered. Until it is
done in this way, no permanent re-
suits can be expected. With mud and
water six to twelve inches deep, the
appearance is not only msisAtly, but
such conditions cannot be conducive
to good health.

day about noon for Clinton. Upon his
arrival in Clinton he was told that
the lady was dead and was placed un-
der arrest.
The matter was purely an accident
and no one regrets it more than does
DR.. Armstrong. He says that he did
not want to extract the teeth for he
saw that the lady was in delicate
health but she insisted and he finally
consented to do the work upon her
saying that she was sure she could
stand it.
"A gentleman of this city talked to
MIR. Cole i. Blehse in Newberry over
the long distance telephone last night

thought that it was an accident and
that it was greatly ucplored. Mr..

young dentist of this city and has al
ways been very successful in the prac-

or Brown stated some time ago that
the material had been ordered and it
is hoped it will soon arrive and this
much may be put DOWN in permanent
work, and when the people see what
it is, there will be little difficulty in
having permanent work extended.

walks in the residence portion are
the pressing needs Of Ncwbcrry to-
day. They must come, and come
