BAGGAGE Rate
fixed AT so
CENTS

You must pay SO cents for hav-
ing your trunk hauled from the
depot now, but the baggageman
must haul 1t two miles for that
price instead of one. The council
last night passed the new bag
gage ordinance. Heretofore the
rate for hauling trunks one mile
was % cents. The baggagemen
usually charged so cents Just the
same, but for fear they might gel
caught they asked to have II
changed.
The council compromised. They
changed it to SO cents, but made
the limit two miles. Any either
who has trunk hauled anywhere
less than two miles should mo-
pay over SO cents for the frs
trunk and 20 cents additional fol
each extra trunk.
From two to four miles the
charge is to be rs cents for the
first trunk and rs cents for addi-
tional trunks. Above four miles
the charge will be 81 for the first
trunk and SO cents for additional
trunks.

MAYOR TURNED
DOWN HARD BY
CITY COUNCIL

The council sat down ON the at
tempt of Mayor Linck to get
South Prospect street vacated. SC
he could use the property, at the
session last night.
Some time ago William Jones
and others asked for the vaca-
tion of the end of Prospect street
running along by the Acme Manu-
featuring company's plant. Jones
owns six lots across the street
from the Acme plant. The mayor
is one of the largest owners in the
Acme industry. The company had
agreed to buy the lots from Jones
II the street was vacated, and
Jones signed the petition for va
cation.
The council, however, turned
down the petition last night hard.
Not vote was recorded for It.
The Acme Manufacturing COM
pany recently increased its capt.
tai from $4,000 to $4,000. and
the mayor says 1t was the inten-
ton, If this land was secured, to
extend the shop over the street on
to the lots to be bought from
Jones.
1t will have to be built the
other way now. There is an alley
on this side. and the city will
probably be asked to vacate this.

LONDON, Aug. ~. = Coming
from an Englishman, talking
about Englishmen, this is hot
stuff.
H. G. Wells is probably the
most popular of the younger Eng
lish writer's. He is also an ex-
pert on aviation, and much of his
fame rests upon his War in the
Air." story which deals with the
future possibilities of aerial war
fare.
Though the public bought and
read the book, and liked 1t, the
critics said it was too wildly i'm
possible to be instructing or even
interesting.
Then M. Bleriot, the French
man, flew the channel with his
monoplane, and Wells came back
at his critics, saying that here was
proof that aerial warfare is posi-
BILE and probable, that the airship
for war purposes is a thing of the
immediate future. but that the
English are too slow to accept the
idea or even to profit by the ac-
complishment of foreign pioneers
in science.
Zone meaning, / think" said
Wells, Stands out plainly enough
unpalatable to our national pride.
1t is that this thing was done
abroad. OF all that made it posi-
BILE we can only claim so much as
is due to the improvement of the
bicycle.
Gliding began abroad, when
our young men of courage and
muscle were Drawing the dangers
of the cricket ball. The motor
car and its engine were being
worked out over there while in
this country the mechanically pro-
PEELED road vehicle was going at
four miles an hour behind a man
with a red flag. And now our in

PROPOSED FORM OF CITY
GOVERNMENT WILL NOW
BE PUBLISHED AND VOTED
ON,

The new charter for the COM
mission plan of government was
officially presented to the city
council last night.
The election to decide whether
or not it shall become the funda-
mental law of the city will be
set for some time in the future,
and 1t is possible 1t may be placed
on the same date as the republi-
can primaries in this county,
The council last night killed a
resolution by Giblett calling for
the printing of 500 copies in
pamphlet form.

planes capable of starting from Ca
lais, let us say, circling over Lon
don, dropping a hundredweight OF
explosive or so upon the house OF
parliament, and returning securely
to Calais for another similar par
eel.
"Aeroplanes are neither diff
cult nor costly to make. For the
price of Dreadnaught we might
have hundreds of them. They will
be extremely hard to hit with any
sort of missile.
II do not think a large army OF
under-trained and
extremely unwilling conscripts is
going to be any good against a
thing of this kind.
THE arrival of M. Bleriot sug-
gests most horribly to me how far
behind we must be in all matters
of ingenuity, device and mechani-
cal contrivance.
II am reminded again of the
days of the Boer war, when it had
never occurred to our happy-go-
lucky army that it was possible to
make military used of barbed
wire or to construct a trench to
defy shrapnel.
Suppose a fleet of airships
should soar over our sea fleet in
the Baltic. and should drOp an ex-
plosive upon the flagship. In
fancy l can see a parboiled admi-
raj being fished out of the deep,
explaining what a deucedly unex-
pected and ungentlemanly thing
the enemy had done to him." c

CLUE TO MISSING BOAT

City Treasurer Freeland last
night gained slight clue to his
stolen launch. A Mr.. Ballard,
who has a boat and who has been
cruising the sound. came in and
said he had seen the boat up near
Heron island in North bay. A

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 11.--Eighty-
six scars on the bald head of John
McGilcuddy, who has made several
fortunes mining for all kinds of
metals and precious stones and
spent all of them, form true map
of the United States and its princi-
pal cities. Curiously enough, with
a map of the states drawn on the
top of of McGilcuddy's head, with
Florida hanging over his left eye
brow and California running down
into his right eyebrow, the larger
scars represent faithfully the
towns where McGilcuddy received
the wounds which caused them.
Here's Cripple Creek" said the
old miner, pointing to a scar away
out west" on his Uranium. II got
that mining for gold. Here's FRS

Scandinavians Refuse
To Be ''Lined Up"

Every effort is being made by
certain interests to "force" j. M.
Ashton to run for congress, but
the pressure" is not as strong as
Ashton men would like, according
to reports.
Last night an attempt was made
to line up the Scandinavians for
Jim. A meeting was held and
Swan Samson, who took the lead
in putting Ashton forward at the
Tacoma hotel meeting, expounded
the virtues of Ashton as a candid
ate and asked the meeting to
line UP.
But they did not line. Some
one asked what Jim had ever done
for the Swedish. Another fellow
wanted to know what he had done
for the Norwegians and 1T got
