SUCH WILL BE REPORT OF
STREET AND ALLEYS CON-
MlTTEE TO COUNCIL.
SPECIFICATIONS OF
FOND DU LAC USED
Specifications Call for Five and One
Half Inch Concrete Foundation, With
One and one-Half Inch Wearing
surface-Latter Comprises Cement,
Sand, and Granite Chips.

The streets and alleys committee OF
the city council, of which Councilman
George Herman is chairman, will rec
ommend to the city council at its adj
| journed meeting next Monday night
that the city declare by resolution to
pave this season with concrete.
The committee will also recommend
that specifications used at Fond du
Lac, Wis, be adopted for the paving
here. These specifications call for a
concrete base of five and one-h IF
inches, with a wearing surface of one
and one-half inches, the latter to be
composed of one part of sand, one of
cement, and one of granite chips, the
same as was adopted by the city coun-
Gil last year.
Believe Will Cost $3.50.
The committee believes that concrete
paving according to these specifica-
lions viii cost S1.50 here. The same
paving cost at Fond du Lac last year
$1.32. The committee has been in
formed, however. that in addition to
the fact that cement is higher this
year, the crushed rock can not be Sc
cured here at the same rate as it was
obtainabl in Fond du Lac There Sc
cents per cubic yard was paid for the
crushed lime rock for the foundation,
while here it is estimated that the rock
will cost nearer $50. The crushed
granite chips in the top course will be
about the same.
Eliminate Few Streets.
Altho the list of streets to be paved
has not been definitely designated as
yet, it is the idea of the committee to
eliminate a few of the streets that
We're placed in last seasons proposed
list. The streets that have been decided
upon for elimination this year are Park
street from Fifth to Third, Fifth street
from Jerome to Park, and Linn
street Others may be included by Pc
tition.
Concrete paving using no granite in
the top but laying the wearing course
half an inch thicker has been let this
year at s1.25 per yard. Bids We're OPP
ened this month in Oshkosh. Wis, for
cement paving at s1.29, Blome grant
told s1S41a and burlington brick at
S199.

Education and the Child.

From London T. P.'s Weekly.
We talk much of education, but make
little real progress. Why is this? 1t is
because we are taking our cue for edu-
eating from without instead of from
within. Scheme follows scheme, subject
follows subject, but the development Of
any natural bent the child may possess
is almost an impossibility. Conferences
with the teachers with a view to taking
their opinions upon how best to introduce
a system more truly educational and CIV
ing them power to classify their scholars
into sections with the approval of par
ents or guardians should go a long way
toward attaining a more desirable state
of affairs. This sequent upon or concur
rent with more attention of the right
kind to the child in the home, wherein
much assistance can be obtained from the
wonderful books for children written by
the few who understand them well. may
bring hope where at present reigns some
thing not unlike despair.

Dangers of Athletic Training.
rom the Family Doctor


The chief dangers arising from carry
ing athletics to extremes are: First. un-
even development of limbs and organs,
due to special extravagant devotion to
one form of exercise. This is especially
dangerous In immature bodies. Second
overstrain on the nerves and rapid waste
of tissue Third, and perhaps most
serious of all, general poisoning by the
accumulation of waste products in the
body far more rapidly than they can be
ell minated by natural means.
Lastly, overphysical culture has very
bad mental effect, for the more perfectly
trained a man is in the physical sense
the nearer he approaches to the level OF
an automa ton-a splendidiy balanced and
regulated machine. but weakened in the
higher mental qualities. Vital force can
not be increased in this way: 1t can only
be specialized, and what is gained in one
direction has to be lost In another.

Game Observation-Disclosures VS.. Treasurers, Mon
ument Lot. 2:30.
With the score to favor of the Oper-
ating team. the Law Department objected
to a decision Of the umpire and Manager
Quinn called his men off the field. The
game was then forfeited to the Operat-
ing Department organization. The play
in question came up in the fifth. when a
short passed ball gave the runner a
chance to score, quick play by Creyke,
the Operating teams backstop. in the
opinion Of Mr.. Murphy, the umpire, re-
firing the runner. This decision was
warmly protested by the Law team. with
the result that they left the field.
Up to this inning the game was close
and evenly fought, with Bowen and Tan
ner pitching good ball. the latter. how
ever, having the best of the argument.
MCCARTHY caught clever game for the
losers, and although he did not connect
for safe drive, clouted the horsehide
hard every time up. Mccarthy is also
captain Of the Pension Bureau team of
the Marquette League.
TomorrOw's game between the Auditors
and the Treasurers will in all probabili-
ties be good contest. The auditing
bunch are now going at a fast clip and
are anxious to win the game from the
team that has been touted by many as
the best team in the league.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS.


1t was good game yesterday between
Commercial National and American Sc
curly for just five innings, after which
the Commercial lads punched their hits
In timely manner and easily clinched
the game, score 10 to H. Sam Seay pitch
ed an excellent game for the winners, al
lowing but four safe hits of his delivery.
Commercial hit Gray. it is true, but in
due. justice to the former Georgetown
| twirler 1t. should be said that he has been
nursing sore arm all season. and so
entered the box yesterday under a dis
advantage.
Hayes. who played his first game for
American Security yesterday. had an oil
day, making five errors, which proved
disastrous to his team. This boy Is the
candy. however, and as soon as he gets
used to the grass diamond different
story will be told.
Paul Hines, son of the famous ball
player Paul Hines. who played in the
big leagues in bygone years, was on the
Job yesterday with couple of timely
bingles for the Commercial nine. He Is
one Of the best players in the league and
KNOWS the game from start to finish.
Hines played on the strong Merchants
and Mechanics team last season.
Nenefee would have had home run
on his clout to center in the early part
of the same game II 1t hadn't been for
his injured knee. AS it. was, he limped
around the sacks for three bases. He
and Hayes appeared to be the only play
ers on the Trust Company team VINO
could hit Seay's shots safely. Every
Payer on the losing team hit the ball hard
and fair. but 1t was usually right in the
hands Of the opposing fielders.
In spite of his game ankle, Rawlings
played the entire game, and handled HIM
self capably. He played with his ankle
heavily bandaged. 'Shag'' hit several
hard ones during the game which curved
foul by few feet.
1t can easily be recalled by the follow
ers of this league that in all the games
the scores have been one-sided. This Is
largely due to the poor condition OF the
grounds. which are very rough and badly
in need of good rolling. The infielder
finds 1t extremely difficult to gauge the
course Of a ball over the infled, and the
result is numerous errors and many runs.
The officers Of the league should have
this matter attended to Immediately.
Boykin played his new position at third
base for the losers without slip-up, and
Was q tower of strength to the infield
He was also responsible for fast double
play In the early part Of the game, when
he handled difficult chance, and shot
the ball to Hayes. who in turn threw to
Taggart.
