Columbus Telegram: The original

late train last evening, and left on
the early freight for Albion, where she
will deliver a chautauqua address this
afternoon.
Carrie had to wait awhile at the
depot while the trainmen were getting
the Albion freight ready for action.
Only a few persons on the platform
were aware of the presence of the
celebrated woman. She had been the
guest of the Meridian hotel for the
night, and Landlord Todenhoft &C
companied her to the depot. Carrie
appeared uneasy. She shifted the
morning atmosphere suspiciously, and
pounded the platform with her UNI

At times in the play were flashes
of Miss Camerou's CleNerness and her
singing of character songs was en-.
Enthusiastically applauded. Her charac.

her role in "Dollie Dimples" and she
sang a "Dollie Dimples' song over
again. The play itself was not up to
Miss Cameron's calibre on the stage.

ABOUT CONCRETE PAVING.
Sioux City Engineer Tells Different
Yarn to His Own Townspeople.

Sioux City Engineer Tells Different
Yarn to His Own Townspeople.
number of Norfolk business men
are wondering why the Sioux City
engineer declared in Norfolk recent
ly that cement paving was past the
experimental stage and is the coming
thing. To the Sioux City council the
engineer tells different story. The
Sioux City Tribune says:
There is marked disposition on
the part of the city council to make
an extensive experiment with concerto
paving in the new work now being
planned for next year. An informal
conference was held with City Engi-
neer Gaynor following the council
meeting this morning and the ques.
ton of material was considered, in ad-
dition to the distribution of the new
work.
1T was emphasized by the city engi-
neer that the concrete paving should
be considered only as temporary i'm
pTOvement and that the plans should
lead to it being eventually used as a
base for regular brick paving. The
economy of the concrete idea is one
of the principal features cited in its
favor as a five-inch road dressing is
said to prove sufficient for all ordi-
nary purposes.
Among the districts definitely Stat
ed for new paving are Jackson street,
from Sixth to Fourteenth, Pierce from
Twenty-fifth to Twenty-ninth, Jen-
nings from Sixth to Thirteenth. The
West Fourth street paving which has
been used twenty years is due to be
replaced and the plan is to have one
good paved driveway in the region of
Grandview park"

prevent last winters threatened coal
famine, has already laid in his win

road agents here that Norfolk people
will buy their coal early, while the
local dealers will do the same.
If this is done Norfolk will be in
no danger of coal famine or ex-

from last years car shortage.
