ENGINEERS
FIGURING
ON GRADES
TRYING TO GET COMMON LEV
ELS FOR TERMINALS OF
NORTH COAST AND
MILWAUKEE.

During the 80 days delay that
the city council has ordered
in the consideration of the
franchise application Of the
North Coast the city engineer and
the engineers of the North Coast
and Milwaukee will confer and see
If there can be plan of common
grade elevation figured out.
The Milwaukee ordinance,
like that of the North Coast, says
nothing about union depot, about
common user clause, terminal
rates or any of the other things
that people have been talking about
for the past year in connection with
the entry of new railways into the
city. Its application extends west
to Washington street and does not
cover the city hall site asked by
the North Coast.
People generally seem to endorse
the action of the council in going
at the granting of these franchises
with elaboration. The franchises
are perpetual and of course run for
a long time, hence it is figured that
there is no harm done in looking
into the matter from all sides.

HALF PRICE
WILL BUY JUST
ThePianoYou
Want

But you will have to act quickly
as 1t is our intention to close out
every last piano purchased from
the Lucore Piano company before
the end of this week.
If you want oak, we have them
in Golden Oak, Flemish Oak or
Mission Oak.
Should your choice be Walnut,
we have both plain and Burl Wal
nut, or should you prefer Mahog-
any, we have them in beautifully
figured woods.
The lot contains the plainest
cases, those more fancy and sew
eral magnificent, beautifully carved
art cases of massive designs.
1t is really wonder that we
have such variety of styles left
after over sixty purchasers have
selected from the lot.
OF course, if you can't find Just
what you want we will not expect
you to buy, but no one that really
wanted piano has been disap-
pointed as yet. They can't afford
to be, in fact, when the price is
taken into consideration, for we
have never before had such tempt
ing values to offer.
500, $187, $198, Etc.
The above prices purchase pianos
that should bring from 1925 to $500.
For few dollars more we sell you
magnificent art styles; instru-
ments worth up to $3.50.
The matter of terms will be no
hinderance to you. as We are bound
to place every last one of these
pianos in home this week, even
If We have to accept $40 down and
S. month.
Remember, we guarantee every
one to be satisfactory, the same as
our regular line. and besides you
have the assurance which goes
with the splendid makes which we
are offering-Gabler. Nelson, Ste
ger. Hoffman. Kranich & Bach,
Steinway. and others.

But Yet a Norman.

Shakespeare.
On the day following my last in
terview with Mr.. Calhoun, l had
agreed to take my old friend Doc
tor Won Rittenhofen upon a short
journey among the points of inter-
est of our city, in order to acquaint
MIN somewhat with our govern
mental machinery and to put him
in touch with some of the sources
OF information to which he would
need to refer in the work upon
which he was now engaged. We
mad spent a couple of hours to-
gether, and were passing across
the capitol, with the intent of look
ing in upon the deliberations of the
houses of Congress, when all at
once, as we crossed the corridor,
felt him touch my arm.
Did you see that young lady?"
ne asked me. "She looked at you,
yess?"
/ was in the act of turning, even
as he spoke. Certainly had / been
alone l would have seen Elisabeth,
would have known that she was
there.
1t was Elisabeth, alone, and hur-
rying away! Already she was ap-
preaching the first stair. In mo-
ment she would be gone. l sprang
after her by instinct, without plan,
clear in my mind only that she was
going, and with her all the light
of the world; and that she was go
ing, and that she was beautiful,
adorable; that she was going, and
that she was Elisabeth!
AS l took few rapid steps
toward her, l had full opportunity
to see that no grief had proved up
on her comeliness, nor had con-
cealment fed upon her damask
cheek. Almost with some resent
ment l saw that she had never
seemed more beautiful than on this
morning. The costume of those
days was trying to any but beauti-
full woman; yet Elisabeth had a
way of avoiding extremes which
did not appeal to her individual
taste. Her frock now was all in
pink, as became the gentle spring,
and the bunch of silvery ribbons
