Close Storm Shutters on Port Side
and Proceed With Ridiculous
Exhibition.

NEW YORK, oct 3-Patriotism must
not forbid the admission that it was a
cold day for the Yankees yesterday.
Up at American League Park they
closed the storm shutters on the port
side as you enter. and the few faithful
huddled together for what warmth there
might be that way, and the turnsile at
the cOming-in gate got rusty for want
of turning. and everybody present looked
ut everybody else-and that didn't re-

would say. What are you doing here?"
and TO round of the disagreeableness
the home team, which is absolutely last
in the race, lost 10 the Washington
team. which is next to last. and the
score was u to 2.
Hogg Routed Early.
Hogg set out to pitch for the Yankees
and Kelley for washington. and this ar
rangement gave rise TO a cOnundrum
that ought to go like wild in the grand
minstrel first part. viz. namely:
What was the difference between
HoEg and Kelley?
Well. Mr.. Bones. what WAS the dIf-
ference between Hogg and Kelley?
Well, sub. one was hit and the other
was IT.

MILITARY ROAD FOR KANSAS.
First Steps Taken For a One Hundred
and Twenty Mile Pike.

Representative ID. Il. Anthony, who
recently returned to Kansas from the
east, while in Washington talked over
preliminary plans for the building of
the proposed military road between
Fort Leavcnworth and Fort Riley,
says the Kansas City Times. At his
request Il road engineer of the public
roads bureau is to be sent ON to make
an investigation and prepare detailed
plans of the road. The engineer is to
report in time for action by congress
the coming winter.
The prospects for the government
favoring the building of the proposed
military highway between Fo.t Leav-
enWorth and Fort Riley are very
bright" said Mr.. Anthony. The dl-
rector of public roads, which is the
bureau connected with the department
of agriculture, assures me that the
plan to build this 100 mile highway
connecting the greatest army posts in
the country is heartily favored. They
believe the construction of this road
would be great object lesson to the
agricultural west in the building of
modern highways, which mean so
much in the way of affording an ac-
cessible medium for the farmer in
hauling his crops to market"

SOLD AT LARGE LOSSES.
Four Towns Find Municipal Plants Are
Too Expensive.


In Iuka, Miss. an electric light plant
was installed in 1900 at a cost of ST.,
COO In December. 1896, it was leased
because of the ''dilicuIty in keeping a
competent electrician" to quote the
words of the mayor.
From Council Grove, Kan, comes
word that the city formerly owned
the electric light plant, but made a
failure of operating it and sold dy-
namo. engine and wiring for $500. The
present company rebuilt the entire
system and is giving satisfaction. The
rate was Il little lower under city con-
troll, but did not meet expenses"
Some time prior to 1902 Bourbon,
Ind, contracted for an electric light
plant and issued bonds in payment
therefor On the ground that it had
not been constructed in accordance
with the specifications the town re-
fused to accept it, and the bondhold
crS were compelled to take over the
plant in order to protect themselves.
Madison, Ind, installed an electric
light plant in 1896 at cost of $l3, ,0OO
not including steam plant. Two years
later tie plant was sold for $4,000
The operating expenses alone amount
ed to about $45 lamp, which implies
Il total cost per lamp of approximately
500 year The purchasers agreed to
supply lights at $50 year and to in
stall and operate an electric railway.
