Paving Is Possible When Man Does
Not Tell Wife of Remonstrance.

Hutchinson, Kan, July 22-If
James Collier of 1O4 B avenue west,
had not forgotten to tell his wife when
he signed a remonstrance against the
Washington street paving. that street
could not now be paved.
But Mr. Collier didn't tell his wife
until afterwards, and as the property
is in his wife's name, and as she did
not sign the remonstrance or authorize
her husband to do so, his name can
not legally stand on the remonstrance.
And as there was only one name to
go on, the removal or Mr.. Golfers
name makes the remonstrance invalid,
and South Washington street will be
paved.

A MAGNIFICENT
ELK'S HEAD GIFT
YOUNG MAN FROM MONTANA
TAKES ONE TO HIS MOTHER
NEAR GLENN YESTERDAY.

The best specimen of an elk s
head ever shown in this city was
taken from the express office by
the owner, Mr.. McFall of Montana.
Mr.. McFalll left his home near
Glenn nine years ago and went to
Montana, where he was employed
as a cowboy on one of the large
cattle ranches. He states that in
that time he has succeeded in killing
eleven elks, but this was the best
specimen that he hail ben fortunate
enough to bal. The antlers were full
ly five feet high and were abso-
lutely perfect. He got but short
distance up Main street yesterday
when offers began to pour in for the
purchase of the trophy. He refused
all offers for the present and stated
that he would take it to his mother
first, that she might see it. and he
would leave it to her as to its fu-
ture disposition. He also possesses
couple of teeth taken from the
animal that are considered by those
who are informed to be very val
liable.
