INTERSTATE COMPANY
DEFAULTS ON INTEREST

AS generally was anticipated the
Interstate Railways Company de-
faulted on the August l coupon yes
terday. This was a foregone conclu-
sion since the February l coupons
are still unpaid. The American Rail-
way interests declare that they are
probably in the best position. as the
interest unpaid is being compounded
at the rate of per cent. which at
some future time must be paid.

Madison did not forfeit their game on
Saturday. as Manager Abrahams was
notified that Madison would not play,
and 1t was not necessary for him to
take his team to Newport. Peerless
cannot claim the game any more than
IL can claim the Landhth Madison
game or the Highland-Tremont game,
and Manager Mckinney states that he
will protest Manager Abrahams claim
as Abrahams was notified and cannot
claim the game as a forfeit,

Rain or shine, the birdmen will
make their flights every day. At
Tucson the other day Hamilton
remained in the air over IL min
utes with the wind blowing at the
rate of 40 miles an hour, which
proved that weather makes no diff

the state of Washington that will

number of homemade birds have

crowds are expected as the bird men

was recently voted to adoptit, BY
some strange circumstance the law
reads "per thousand" instead of, as
intended, per hundred, in relation
to the amount of money that may
be expended directly. This cuts
the available fund down consider
able, but the Ada county commits
sioners are figuring on spending
money direct from the general fund,
a bond issue, to the end
that the county be given some de-
cent county roads. The best view
is that good drainage and dragging
will produce satisfactory results
until road-making material can be
put in. The state administration,
through Governor Brady, is actively
engaged in spreading the gospel of
good roads and doing every thing
possible to arouse interest in it for
the beuefit of the farming commu-
