ORDINANCE WILL
STAND AS DRAWN
Repaving of Business Streets
to Be Again Recommended
to City Council
OVERRIDE DIVISION PLAN
Purpose Is to Defeat Project so Far
as Third Avenue is Concerned
Meeting This Evening.

The board Of local improvements has
overruled the recommendation of the
city council that there pc two ordin-
ances for the paving Of Second and
Third avenues and Twentieth street,
and at this evenings meeting OF that
body viii return the ordinance In its
original form and ask for its adoption.
The board further viii notify the
council that 1t is not within its prov
incs to instruct the board on the mat
ter OF planning for these improve
'ments; that its authority rests In eth
ar adopting or rejecting ordinances
offered by the public improvement
board.
CITY ABLE to Bear shaxe.
It Is to be hoped that the members
Of the council win not permit little
financial considerations. some of which
particularly those affecting the city,
have been magntfied, to influence them
in an unfavorable vote on the project.
It Is generally conceded that the thor
The sentiment of the owners of the
frontage has been consulted and the
verdict Is practically unanimous for
the Improvement One or two alder
men have ventnred the claim that the
municipality would be embarrassed by
assuming the obligation that would
follow the paving OF Third avenue.
This Is the sheerest nonsense, as any
taxpayer will find on consulting the
city clerk.
An or Nome.
The idea of having two ordin ances
originated with directors on Third
avenue. II they can separate the work
they see a possibility of defeating the
one providing for the improvement of
Third. 1t would hardly do to repave
Second avenue and Twentieth street
without taking care of Third avenue.
All three are badly in need of better
ment. 1t is not to be denied that there
will be hardships imposed on some Of
the owners Of the property, not alone
on Third avenue. but as well on Sec
and avenue and Twentieth street But
the city can't allow itself to stand still
for fear Of stepping on the toes of
few. This paving improvement is
progressive move, and no member Of
the city council can afford to seek to
block it.

Has Police Record.
Stark is well known in police circles,
as he has been in Jail number Of
times on different charges. On one oc-
casion he was accused of having taken
SOS from a friend who was drunk, but
the money was recovered and the
charge was not pressed. He is thought
by the police to be insane and it IS
likely that proceedings will be com
menced upon his release from the
county Jail to have him committed %
an asylum.

remurrer OF the Fraternal Tribunes, de
clared that it is the duty of benevo-
lent society under the law to pay all
claims of members in organizations abb
sorbed by said society.
The demurrer was filed by the so
ciety, and Attorney H. A. Weld OF Rock
Island appeared to argue in favor OF 1t
being sustained. He declared that the
Fraternal Tribunes had a rule that no
person over so years of age should be
admitted to the Tribunes without ply
sician's examination. Some of the
claimants OF the American Home Circle
had not complied with this rule, but
they were admitted to the Tribunes
when the two societies were merged
some years ago.
Must Assume Policies.
Judge Creighton ruled that it made
no difference how many rules society
had, the law prescribed that If it alb
serbs another fraternal order it must
assume the policies carried by tic
members Of that society.
This ruling leaves it necessary only
for the many claimants against the
Fraternal Tribunes to prove the valid
ity Of the policies held by them.

LIFE ABOARD a SUBMARINE.

Life aboard a submarine is not so
unpleasant or dangerous as one might
imagine, but it is entirely different
| from that led on other types of ships.
The crew, usually consisting of two
| officers and fourteen men, is selected
! from volunteers after a most rigid
! medical examination. Service rarely
extends beyond period of two years,
and real work on a submarine is
limited to about three weeks in the
summer and one in the winter Dur
ing the remainder of the time the
men live on a parent ship or on
shore. The boat is, however. put
through the various evolutions once
every week
The first impression on entering a
submarine is one of heat, the air be-
ing rather close and heavy, but the
men soon become accustomed to it.
Standing room space is about six and
ne-half feet and toward both ends
the boat tapers away almost to a
point. There is no portfolios The
hatchWay in the coming tower is the
only aperture Under water electric
light is used. There are ventilators,
but when the boat dives they are shut
off with a cap.
Life on board a submarine is essen
TALLY lin common" The way men
and many objects are crammed to-
gether in a narrow space is almost
miraculous.
Cooking is done in an electric oven,
and no foods which have a strong or
disagreeable smell are used. OF
course, smoking is allowed only when
on the surface, and then on the
bridge. Owing to the character of
the men selected, discipline is per-
feet.
There is scarcely any noise in
submarine when submerged The
greatest depth the boat descends
does not exceed thirty feet. At that
depth her speed is about eight knots
The air is quite 'breathable" for four
hours, but in case of emergency the
crew can remain closed in for seventy
hours without danger.
The men love the life. With the Of
hcers they are as one family, sharing
everything equally, including the dam
gers, which are not much to speak of,
provided every one does his duty.
When the weather is fair there is
very little rolling. In rough weather
the men escape knocking about by
holding on to steadying lines. '-Our

FIRST GREEK CATHEDRAL IN

Last Sunday was a notable day in
the history of Greek Catholics, when
their first and only cathedral in this

God. The officiating prelate was the
Most Rev. Archbishop Szeptycki, Pri-
mate of Austrian Galicia, who presid-
ed. Archbishop Falconio, the Apos-
tolic Delegate at Washington, and
Archbishop Ryan were present.
Right Rev. S. S. Ortynsky, Greek
Catholic Ruthenian Bishop for the
United States, whose residence is at
SIC North Franklin street, Philadel-
phia, preached the sermon.
The cathedral is a handsome build
ing. located on Franklin street, and
was dedicated to the Immaculate
Conception. There are a large num-
Der of Ruthenian Catholics in this
country, and it was to look after their
spiritual wants that Bishop Ortynsky
was ppOinted.-Catholic Progress.
