$ N. Titus, of the township trustees,
brought up the matter of improving
East Playground street, a part OF
which is in the corporation and the
remainder in Marion township. IL is
proposed TO lay a tile drain along the
road which Is practically impossible
during the wet season.
Attorney II. N. Qugley spoke to
council In regard TO the paving OF
Mill street He said that he repre-
sented the Big Four company and
Thomas McMurray who owns the
property on the North side of the
tracks MIR. Quigley said that the
Improvement could in no way benefit
his clients and asked that council pave
only the south side of the street. The
matter was referred to the street and
alley committee.

viding the city takes care of the
grading and other work necessary
in making the crossing. The city Is
also required to Eeep watchmen or
to place gates at the crossings if it
ever becomes necessary. Council
referred the communication to the
city solicitor and the street and alley
committee.
A communication from the service
board recommended that storm wat
er drain be constructed from the
East End of Farming street to empty
into the George street arch sewer.
1t was referred to the sanitary and
sewer committee and the city engi-
neer.
AT this point Attorney ID. X.
Crlssinger revived the David street
sewer matter which has been before
council more or less for the past
eight months He said that he rep
resented several of the property own
ers along the line OF the sewer into
which the new Dayids street sewer
is to tap The old sewer commences
on David street and crosses into an
alley and into the Center street ditch.
At the point where II reaches Center
street. II f. sixteen feet under ground
and cost large sum of money. Mr..
Crissinger said that his clients were
of the opinion If the owners along
the new sewer were TO get the benefits
of the more expensive sewer, they
should pay part Of the cost of It.
He said his client sdemanded that
they pay It. The Steam Shovel COM
pany, said the speaker, Is perfectly
willing to pay It's one half OF the big
sewer, but there Is no equity in hay-
ing It do so.
Mr.. Randall followed Mr.. Crissng-
er and predicted trouble for council
as result of the David street sewer
which was recently ordered. lie said
that in the near future, the residents
of David street on the east side will
want drainage and those on the west
side from Bennett TO Center will
want an outlet The question raised
by Mr. Crissinger was referred to
the sanitary and sewer committee.
Then the city dads borrowed a lit
tie money An ordinance authorizing
the mayor and the city auditor TO
issue two notes, ore for 500 and the
other for $4,000 to the City National
bank, was adopted. The first note
was Issued TO pay the cost and eX-
pense of constructing sewers on
Bellevue avenue and High street, and
the second to pay for sewers on
Chase Pleasant and Reed and Uhler

japanese Acrobat Slain.

Newton, Oct. IL. F. Kikuchi
a Japanese acrobat, was muir.
dered in the woods two miles
from Newton today by another
Japanese, Henry Yamagata. The
two belonged to a show that viii
exhibit tomorrow. The scene Of
the tragedy was three hundred
yards from the house of Mr..
George Sigman. Mr.. Sigman
heard six shots and went into
the woods to investigate. As he
came to a deep gully, Yamagata
was coming up the bank. He
pointed down the gully and
seemed to say, "A dead man
down there"
As Mr.. Sigman started in the
direction indicated, the man ran
off through the woods. Mr..
Sigman found a pile of boards in
the gully and protruding through
them . mans coat, and came to
town and informed the sheriff.
A large crowd soon gathered
and when the sheriff removed
the boards a dead body was
found. The murderer hurried 10
the show tent, changed clothes
and made his escape before Mr..
Sigman reached town to inform
the sheriff. He was arrested in
Hickory at 8 o'clock tonight and
brought here to Jail.
The man killed had a special
feature with the show in connec.
ton with two little japanese
girls and the man who killed him
was manager Of the troupe. All
were working under a japanese
booking agent in Buffalo, N. Y,
the manager of which has been
telegraphed to send another
troupe. The show people know
nothing as to the motive of the
murder.
There were found five bullet
holes in the mans back.

Mayor Graham had five whis.
key cases before him Saturday
and each defendant was sent
lover to the higher court under
bonds which they could not give
and the jailer has five more
boarders.
The account of the arrest and
trial of these cases that appeared
in the Daily Sun is so amusing
that we copy the following:
There was in fact an endless
chain of whiskey sellers to begin
with. Sergeant Pendergraph,
Officers Chandler and Lewter
went on a raid about 3 o'clock
this morning and they were quick
in getting three. 1t was found
that William Harmon had sold a
half pint of whiskey. He was
found and said: Mr.. Officer, /
secured that whiskey from Man
dy Pullen," and he cited the
home. Mandy was seen. BLESS
your life child" she said while
trying to collect her wits and get
ready for the story, II never
sold any likker in my life. That
half pint of likker-why got
that from, Lula Williamson. "
That was what the officers
thought, as they We're aware that
the Williamson woman was bad
ly under suspicion. Immediately
all three were arrested and today
the mayor fixed the bonds of each
at $50. They are in Jail.
but this was not all the work
of these three officers on this
raid. They were after others
and these were secured. Iva
Williamson and Dave Rowland
were charged with selling whis-
key and the evidence secured
was such that all were sent to
the higher court"

Duty Quits Race
For Congress
CONTEST NOW is BETWEEN HAIR
RY WOODWARD AND P. w.
NORRIS.

pENNsBoRo. w. Va, March 90
Hon. NJ. X. Duty, of this place. has
sprung surprise on his friends and
the public generally by announcing
his withdrawal from the contest FOR
the Republican nomination for Con
gress in this district. Only the day
before he had been at West Union
making an energetic fight for dele
gates. and he was received with great
deal of favor by the Republicans OF
Doddridge county. 1t had been sup
posed ever since he announced his can
didacy that he would be in the race
to a finish. Lately he made formal
announcement in several of the pa
ners of the district. In view of all
these facts it was genuine surprise
marty when he smilingly came out and
said he was no longer in the fight
Mr.. Duty did not retire in favor OF
anv other candidate and so said. but
II is believed that his sympathies are
not with Mr.. woodward, the present
incumbent from this district, but
rather with the opposition to him.
There is tremendous sentiment
here in favor of P. w. Morris. who so
long lived in Richie county. and
