.0RO|NAncf TERMS
NOT CARRIED out
Traction Company Has Not
Sodded Banks of the
Park Car Line.
IT IS VERY UNsIGHTLY
IT Is NOT KNOWN WHEN THE
COMPANY INTENDS TO MAKE
THE MUCH NEEDED IMPROVE
MENT At THE GLEN.

Although the extension of the freight
line of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis
& Eastern Traction company through
Glen Miller park has been completed
for several months, no effort has been
made by the company to sod the banks
on either side OF the tracks. This con-
dition Is specified in the terms of the
contract between the company and
the city. Superintendent Alexander
Gordon Of the local lines stated this
morning that he did not know when
the work would be done.
In fact he seemed to have no knowl-
edge Of such section in the ordinance
and judging from his statement no
preparation has been made on the part
OF the company to make the improve
ment.
The banks are very unsightly and de-
tract from the general appearance Of
the park. It was announced to the
public that the company would have to
sod and grade the banks on either side
of the track, and that after this was
done the park would not be damaged.
These citizens will not be satisfied
until the banks are sodded or the lines
removed from the park.

SMALL PROvOCATION

As Much as Some People

No more charges OF wife desertion

states explicit causes which will OBJ
tain requisitions in, cases of wife de-
sertions- It is almost always the case
In this county that the deserters who

their return requisitions have been

Dozens OF women visit the prosecutors

It nearly always happens that the
missing men have left home because

been one or legitimate cases where the
husband had no real reason for leav-

have not been one-tenth the number in
which complaints were made without
the husband being to some extent jus
titled when he left.
The ONCE of the governor has been
imposed upon somewhat by the de-

cases Of wife desertion. Prosecutor
Ladd Is among those who have writ

which he has received is N follows:
Hereafter no reQuisition will be
