Estimates completed by the various
divisions OF the department OF public
works and which have been compiled

fetal S3,2l1 GAS. IL IS expected tina.
the commissioner will cut these totals
In number OF places. The total In
cludes the paving ANA other work re-
quested by aldermen as we'll as the rec
concentrations of the department
superintendent. The amount allowed
last year was Sl.s55.054.
Paving work on the three-cent lines

amount OF surface work.
STREET cleaning estimates are increas'
ed greatly over the amounts allowed
last year. In every ward except the
Fourth, which is cut $500. the ward
funds are estimated at from 81 900 TO
$500 higher than the present figures.
This is due TO the weekly cleaning sys'
effort to keep the alleys as we'll as the
streets clean. and Supt. Aldrich figures
he cannot do the work without sac. 500
more In the cleaning fund than he has
the present fiscal year.
Clarence A. Proctor, the asphalt ex-
pert. has recommended that oil instead
OF coal he burned at the asphalt plant
this year, and the change in furnaces
would cost $4,000.
While the salary rolls are figured
higher than the estimates OF 1908, the
increase is not as large as ii appears,
the council having recognized the need
OF more help in the department and
supplied II in addition 10 the appro-
priations.
The new bath house on the west
side Is figured in at s40.067, this item
being directed by the council.

WAR ON FOREIGN CORSET
is DECLARED BY FRANCE

PARIS. Jan. 29.-There is an out
cry in the papers for a prohibitive
tariff on American and other foreign
corsets.
Paris still has a monopoly in manu-.
featuring high-eiass eersets, but there
has been for some time a growing I'M
portation Of the cheaper grades. such
as are worn by women OF the lower
middle class" and working girls. Up
20 1900 the annual importation did not
exceed 5000 corsets, but statistics jus;
issued show that nearly 10000 for
eign corsets now Invade" France
yearly. Germany heads the invasion.
but Belgium and the United States
are well to the front
A special meeting of the parliament
airy committee on tariffs has been
held to consider the subject, and it
has been decided to protect the ma.
tional corset by imposing a prohibit.
tive duty on the foreign article.

Attempted Assault.

It is a trite saying that misfortunes
never come single-handed. Probably
at no time in the history of Covington
has the town been better protected or

watchful of those who are capable of
wrong-doing, and keep an eye on
strangers Of whom they may be suspi-
cious. Yet withal the devil seems to
creep in when least expected.

brothers were playing together in
