CONTRACT FOR PAVING LET.
Benton Avenue Property Owners Get
Best Bid That Has Ever Been
Before City Council,

Abba, September 1i.-Tuesday night
was the time set for opening bids for
the work of paving East Benton ave-
rue. and the number Of bids received
gives evidence that the big contractors
fell secure in coming to the city. There
We're four bids and there was varia-
ton in the amounts filed as shows the
contractors We're doing some close
figuring to get the job There was
some questions before the council as to
what they had better do in the matter
of the railway straCks down that
thoroughfare. The rails that are laid
on the street are Four inch while
much more satisfactory piece Of work
can be done If six inch rail were
there. The contract was left and
committee from the council will wait
upon the interurban folks and ask
them to make the change The statute
provides that an interurban must make
such repairs and of the same material
as the city is using in cases of the
kind and the city council may require
the railway people to lay such size
rails as they think best. 1t Is not the
intention of the council to cause any
trouble or expense to the interurban
line but they feel they must protect
the interests of the residents of the
street in the matter. The lowest bid
was Of Magdale & Shelley, of Des
Moines, and they were given the con-
tract to DC the work. The same firm
has done oa-ing in Abba in times past
and their work has stood the test. The
street will oe paved with flint blocks
from the Oskaloosa yards. The street
will be paved with flint blocks from
the Oskaloosa yards. The blocks are
a little over three inches square and
1t will make another fine paved street
for the city,

When he had gone, Leonore reseat-

EDDYVILLE.

Eddyville.-By the new time card
which went into effect on the Rock
Island Sunday, Eddyville now has
more passenger trains day on the
Rock Island than formerly making
three trains each way day. The
time card was changed to correspond
closely with the one in use when the
six passenger trains were in service,
but the only one which runs on the
same time as heretofore is the east
bound passenger and mail train due
here at 6:35 p. m. The mail was
changed also and put back on the new
trains. The Rock Island now gives
Eddyville good passenger service but
as has been the case for some time, the
Iowa Central has but one passenger
train each way per day, not counting
the fast trains which do not stop here.
The accommodation freights are often
great deal behind time, causing much
inconvenience to those who go to and
from Abba.

AGREED TO SUE.

An agreement was filed for record
yesterday with Registrar Merriam
which is very interesting in connection
with a suit flied the other day in the
Circuit Court. The agreement is be-
tween William A. Hall and L. All Lee
ong, in which it is recited that in 1903
Hall leased to c. Winam the property
at the mauka-Ewa corner of King and
Aala streets, and that a short time
ago he began suit for summary pos
session on the ground of violations of
conditions in the lease. The agree
ment with All Leong is that he shall
prosecute that suit and any other nee
essary to get possession of the land,
and that when he does get possession
of it free from incumbrance All Leong
will pay him $4,000 and pay c. w
Ashford, who is Halls attorney in his
suit regarding the forfeiture Of the
lease. a fee of $500.
The agreement is dated April %,
1903
The suit in the Circuit Court is a
bill for an injunction by the widow of
c. Winam. in which she seeks to re-
strain Hall from taking possession Of
the property.

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty every body
knows; but it is seldom or never
that any large business house is
guilty of them, no matter what
line of trade it follows. There
can be no permanent success of
a1y kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief, as they deserve.
Now many persons are, neyerthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum
plugged and deluded; especially
are they slow to place confidence
in published statements of the
merits of medicines. The effec-
tive modern remedy known as
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
is as safe and genuine an article
to purchase as flour, silk or cot
ton goods from the mills of
manufacturers with a worldwide
reputation. We could not afford
to exsggerate its qualities or mis-
represent it in the least; and it
is not necessary. 1t is palatable
as honey and contains the nu-
tritive and curative properties of
Pure Ced Liver Oil, extracted

tances as postmaster at Kamuela
This was opposed, but Judge Dole III
lowed it in a modified form.

coed this morning.

THE BIERCE CASE.
The Bierce case dragged its length
throughout the day in Judge De Bolts
court. All hope of getting through in
time for Prouty and Robertson to get
away on the China has now been aban-
doned, and the Hilonian and the Man
churia, the only other vessels due in
time, are already so overlooked that
Robertson does not think there is any
possibility that he can get away on
either of them. He has sent his proxy
to Delegate Kuhio The case will not
be concluded before next week.
