Commissioners Make Short
Work of It.
COMPLAINTS NOT NUMEROUS
Appeals May be Filed in
Probate Court.
Bonds Are Fixed at $1,000 Each
Date for the Sale of the Job Has
Been Set for August IL I'm Sur
yeyors Office.

The county commissioners conclud-
I'd the final hearing on the Little Sci
oto river improvement at the ses-
sion Friday afternoon. The hearing
moved off very smoothly, there be-
ing some objection to the assess
ments as revised by the board, but
withal there was not that strenuous
ness in the objection which was ex-
pected.
The bonds OF those who have filed
appeals were fixed at $4,000 each
Those who desire to appeal their cases
will be given ten days in which to
complete the bond and make the APP
peal to the probate court for hear
ing.
In case the appeal Is not completed
and there are no obstacles thrown in
the way of the improvement, the con-
ract will be sold by ,ne county sur
veyor, August II, and work will be
begun within a short time thereafter,
The farmers who are affected by
the proposed improvement are COM
ing to see the importance of the river
being deepened, widened and
Strengthened and the opposition
which at first was quite marked is
gradually dying out. 1t is the belief
that there will be few If any NOR
Obstacles thrown in the way of the
commissioners and that the work will
be allowed to proceed without serious
interruption.
Since the previous hearing, the
commissioners have gone over the en-
tire course of the proposed improve
ment and have taken up with the
engineer the assessment placed
against each property. There has
been some adjusting of figures, taxi
ing a little OFF here and adding a
little there, as was deemed just, ac-
cording to the benefits which will ac-
crue from the work. This naturally
caused some objection upon the part
Of those who had their assessments
Increased but II was not radical, and
good feeling is general among the
property owners.

There were moments of excitement
at the union station this morning
when Erie train No. 3. the Chicago
limited, pulled out. Several women
and two foreigners who had been
standing on the platform, tried to get
aboard the moving train. One wo-
man was helped on and one of the
foreigners managed to get his grips
on and crawl aboard himself. BY this
time the train was moving pretty fast
and two men who were trying to get
aboard were pulled away from the
train by the conductor. The train was
then stopped and the others got on.
When the foreigners got on they
learned that they were on the wrong
train and it had to be stopped again
to let them off.
Almost every day something of
this kind happens and despite thu
vigilance exercised by railroad men
and depot employees there appears to
be no remedy. People stand about
the platforms and do not listen to the
train callers or to the conductors.
Then when they see a train pulling
out they make a scramble to get
aboard without even knowing whether
it is the trainNt hen want to take.

The lakes along the line are frozen hard enough for a horse and party to trav- el over, the three lakes lying be- tween here and the first roadhouse.
