HOUCHTON CLUB HOUSE
TO BE COMPLETED SOON
Committee Announces That Suffi-
cient Funds Have Been Rails
ed fer Work.
WILL BE MODERN STRUCTURE

The Houghton clubs partly construct
ed building at the corner of Sheldon
and Portage streets, work upon which
was interrupted some time ago because
of the lack of funds with which TO car
~ the project to a finish, will be COM
pleted. This announcement was made
at the meeting held last night at the
Citizens Bank hall,whlch was attended
by those members OF the club who have
given the most attention to the matter
recently.
"a few Of we members who have
been most actively interested in seeing
that the Houghton club had a perma-
pent home" said one of the members
OF the committee, which has had the
raising of this money in hand, were
OF the belief that Houghton had enough
people interested in the matter TO pro-
vide the funds needed for the compile
ton of the club house. With this be-
lief before us we set about to get the
subscriptions and. while we have not
vet all the money that we require, we
have enough in hand and promised
that we feel safe in going ahead with
the building"
Generous Donations Received.
1--WE are greatly indebted" contin-
ued this man. Ito the liberality of sew
eral of Houghton's leading people for
their generous donations to the fund,
without which our work would have
been useless. We have reason to be-
leve that the house will be ready for
occupancy by the first of July and 1t
will be completed upon the same lines
as the plans specify except that the
top floor will be altered
When the new club house is complet-
ed it will be one Of the finest in this
section of the country, having all the
conveniences and equipment Of an up
to-date metropolitan institution.

is hampering the efforts of the depart

one of the most important things
that is being done is the repairing of
the sides of the canal at the Lily Pond
harbor. The fender wales extending
along the sides of the canal are being
removed where they have rotted away
in places and are being replaced with
heavy wales of hard wood. Several
small holes have also been discovered
in the walls of the breakwater at the
upper end OF the passage but these
cannot be reached at this time because

ters for this county during the year

there were SO cases on the docket and
20 more were placed on file during the

varied but the majority were attribut-

TELEPHONE SOUTH
SHERMAN PROPERTY Is
ACQUIRED BY VILLAGE
Houghton Council Will Conserve
Light for Library on
MonteZuma.
PAVING PROJECT In FAVOR
TELEPHONE SOUTH 10

The matter TO be considered at the
executive session of the Houghton
village council as related in these col
umns the other day was made public
yesterday, il being then announced
that the village had been carrying on
negotiations with ]. Abner Sherman
for the purchase of his property on
Montezuma street adjoining the new
library on the east. The trustees
thought IL best to consider the matter
of the purchase Of the property in a
secret session until the deal had been
closed. The deeds have now been sign
ed and the property is now in the name
OF the village.
There were two good reasons why
this piece of property should belong to
the village. Because of its proximity
to the village hall it can be made good
use OF as a storage yard and 1t is I'M
derstood that the township will later
pay 10 the village a portion of the sum
expended and take over part of the
premises so as to prevent the erection
Of another building abutting the library
building and thereby shutting out the
light.
The lot purchased from Mr.. Sher-
man is so feet wide and 100 in depth
and is improved with a dwelling which
is now occupied by the late owner. II
is not understood that Mr.. Sherman
will move out at this time but IL is
probable that the building will be NOV
ed off the lot at some future date.
Paving Project PIeases.
Members OF the Houghton village
council report to the representative of
The News that they have yet to hear
any property owner who has any
strenuous objection TO the plan as pro-
posed at the last meeting of the board
to pave the side streets on the hill
above Sheldon street. The trustees
have taken it upon themselves to ask
those of the property owners with
whom they have come in contact just
what their ideas i'm the matter are and
they report that there is much less OF
opposition 20 the plan than they had
expected to have TO cope with.
Trustee Fred w. Stoyle. who presid-
ed at tho meeting the other night which
decided to take up this matter of paw
ing i'm their respective localities. He is
assuring these that the village board
will be glad 10 hear their requests in
this line and will give them what they
want just as fast as the drain upon
the exchequer will warrant.
The idea OF continuing the paving OF
Dodge and Huron streets up TO the
county building is one that is COM
mended wherever it is mentioned, il
being the universal idea that such ar
Improvement has long been needed
The matter of macadamizing West
Sheldon street for several blocks which
was preached at the recent council
injecting but upon which no action was
taken, is said to be gaining in popular
ity as its benefits are taken more into
consideration. It is possible that this
matter may be considered more seri-
ously at forthcoming meeting of the
village fathers.

preventing duplication.
"A commercial nation" he said,

and efficiency possible, which is worth
$4,000 100000 per annum. A humane

The bill, he said, was In accordance
with the earnest repeated desires Of
the American Medical association,

largest and most honorable association

whole world"
Senator Owen quoted numerous sta
