The more the writer sees of soccer

bty it would be to watch offside play.
he referee has work enough to do
atching for fouls while ME teams are

both offside and foul plays get

PAVING REBATE TO
BE PARK DONATION
Seventh Ward Owners About Agreed
on Disposition of Money Conn
ing From Street Railway.

Residents of the Seventh ward who
were originally assessed for the Four
teenth avenue pavement have about
agreed among themselves to donate to
the ward park and boulevard fund the
$55767 rebate that is coming from the
Tri-City Railway company as a result
of its having built additional tracks on
the improved avenue. So many hold
ers of property would share in the dis
tribution, were it decided to apportion
the same among those who are entitled
to participate in the rebate, that the
amount that any one person would re-
ceive would be too small for consider
alton. However, the aggregate repre-
sents sum that would come in handy
in the improvement of the east end
park or of the college boulevard. and
for this reason it is not expected there
will be any opposition to the adoption
of the proposition at mass meeting
of those interested which is soon to be
called in the ward
