The football season is getting near the home
stretch. The gridiron players have been eclipsed
by the political excitement but much interest
will be aroused in the sport before the season
winds up. The noticeable thing so far is that the
"big elevens' have not been severely defeating
the minor elevens, as was expected. And Prince

BIDS STILL HIGH x
FOR BlTULlYHIC
Board of Public Works Recon-
mends With DisapprOval.
Compelled by Law 10 do So, Though
Price is Considered Excessive.
OTHER MATTERS CONSIDERED

For the second time the board OF
public works will recommend to the
general council that bitulithic be used
for the reconstruction of Broadway
and Jefferson street between Ninth
and Eleventh streets, and that the
Southern Bitulithic company be given
the contract. II is doubtful whether
the general council will make the
contract, as the lowest bid offered
yesterday afternoon was S25,210,
which was only s310 cheaper than
the company bid on the work before.
The price is still much higher than
for the work on Broadway, Kentucky
avenue and Jefferson street, as in
stead of 50 square yard the COM
pany wants s2.S5 square yard
The other bids opened were:
George w. Katterjohn, asphalt, s25,-
So; Thomas Bridges Sons. brick,
s26,624; asphalt, s27,324. Katter-
john did not bid on asphalt before,
but the bid of Thomas Bridges Sons
on asphalt is $3.50 higher. while their
bid on paving the streets with brick
is SIS higher than the bids offered
three weeks ago. If the contract
should be let by the general council.
Mr.. Palmer McLester the represent
tative of the southern Bitulithic COM
pany, said that the work would begin
at once, and would be completed be-
fore fall. However, it is practically
certain that the contract will not be
made, and instead the streets will be
temporarily improved with gravel.
The city charter says the board
must recommend the lowest bid re-
ceived on any work, and this will be
done.
"Of course the council will turn all
the bids down, in all probability. 4"
said President Richard Rudy. I'VE
did not wish to recommend any OF
the bids, as We deem them all too
high, and we thought we would
merely refer them to the council
boards for their consideration and
disposition, but the law is plain on
the subject and says we must
recommend
I'VE advertised for bids in all the
trade journals, but the lowest bid is
just two cents under the lowest bid
when the work was first considered.
We know work is being done else
where cheaper,-yes, much cheaper
than the bids we have in. Louisville,

bid for asphalt at s1.SS because the

Many good people are 10th to give
up coffee, even though they admit
that 1t is doing them harm, because
they fear that nothing else in the way
OF a hot beverage will satisfy them.
A school teacher SAYS:
Il always enjoyed coffee for break

ence bad results from its use. grew
very nervous and lost flesh and finally
was Frustrated by a complete nerv-

pelledsto abandon the use of coffee.

"My whole family, children and
all, drink Postum, and we all thrive
and keep healthy on It, It is to us a
delightful drink, delicious and tempt

effects that usually followed the use
of coffee. The choicest brands of
Java and Mocha, offered free, would
not tempt us to quit the use of Pos

In the event the council rejects

mitted to do so. He insists that the
alleged robbery of the Steinheil house
never occurred.
