BUREAU
Hesrd PsriIes IsisTssled b Park
 Layout.

The bureau of assessment held q meeting last night and heard parties interested in the layout of Library park, the establishment of grade and layout on South Main street from City corners 2,500 feet southerly, layout and grade of America street and the establishment of building lines on North Willow street, west side, from Ridgewood street to Lud- low street.
 The principal feature of the ses- sion was a tilt between E. T. Root, one of the property owners on Grand street, and Commissioner Musler, which at one time looked as though 1t might develop into serious row, but like most such things 1t didn't amount to much. Judge Cowell, who appeared for South Main street prop erty owners, was in scrappy mood, too, but the board was in good humor when the judge threw in the glove and instead of picking 1t up they left 1t there and didn't pretend to see 1t at all. s..
 MT Root got the commissioners on edge by inquiring rather sarcastical- ly what they knew about condemna- tion proceedings, adding that he thought 1t would be nothing more than fair to approach the people in some other way first and see If they could not agree upon a price.
 All the commissioners were about to answer the Insurance man, but MT Musler got the floor and replied rath- CT hotly, that the bureau had nothing to do with that, the initiative being taken by the aldermen on recommen- dation of the department of public works. The bureau, he said, was act ing under an order from the alder men and if anybody didn't like what was being done he would have to go higher up. Then Judge Cowell said something about land values on Grand street, but the board didn't show any disposition to continue the fight, and from that time on things moved along without a hitch Grand street folks claimed damages for their land as follows: E. T. Root, $20, 900; Jacob Buckner. 5000; F. B. Merri- man, $14 1000; George P. Roberts said he would not name any sum for the reason that the mayor had informed him that he wanted too much and he would not get it.
 Attorney Rogers claimed S1,500 damage for the Hill estate on account of the layout of South Main street. All the others were willing to call benefits and damages equal. Timothy Calvin said he would claim damage in case building line should be es- tablished in front of his property on North Willow street. The property owners on America street favored the project. The hearing on this was closed, but all the others were con- tinued.

SHOWER OF GEMS IN LAUNDRY
Little Girl Shakes s3.0o0 Worth of
 Diamonds From 6 Pillow Slip.

Houston, Tex. Oct 2.-When Mar garet Mosely. aged 10, helper at a local laundry, shook out pillow slip yesterday before consigning 1t to the tub.

James Lyons for in toxication also was fined the same amount. The case against Orson Light for non-support of his wife and daughter was continued to to-mor- row.

 The Warren Brothers Co intends to push the contract of paving the re- mainder of West Main street. Within day or two large concrete mixer will be brought to this city and with this machine the company will put down about thousand yards day. The company has been mixing the concrete by hand but as West Main street is much wider than the ordi- nary street there will be plenty of room for the mixer which will cause the job to be completed sooner than expected. The company has almost finished laying the concrete on the west side of North Willow street and within few days will start on the top dressing which will complete the work.
 The city boards are now consider ing the matter of benefits and dam ages arising from the layout of America street, one of the principal highways on Grandview Heights. Some time ago Thomas R. Manners. the realty man. who developed that part of Town Plot, told a Democrat reporter that he intended to peti- ton the board of aldermen to change the name of America street to Man ners terrace, but so far he has not done so. Why wouldn't 1t be a good time to do 1t now and let 1t go on record on the several boards under the new name, instead of letting it remain as it is until the public be- comes more accustomed to calling it America street and then make it something else? It is as hard to change the name of street as that of a human being. The records may show that it has been changed. but the people continue to refer to 1t In the old way, that Is unless you take time by the forelock and have the change made before the street is laid out and finally adopted by the city.
