$4,000 FOR
IMPROVEMENTS
City Council Awards Four Con.
tracts for Street Work of
Various Kinds
MODERN ADDITION
GETS THE BENEFIT
Three Contracts for West End
Work Let and One Rejected;
New Bids VIII Be Asked for
Portion of Modem Addition

The city council last night award
ed four contracts for street improve
ments in North Yakima amounting
to S69, 360.62, most of this being for
work in the Modern addition. This
amount would have been about twenty
thousand dollars higher but for the
fact that one set of bids. those for
grading the Mckinley avenue district
of the Modern addition. was rejected.
This action was taken owing to the
difference in the two bids on the job.
John L. Costello, of Spokane, bidding
S22.425.95. and the Pacific Paving COM
pany $1s,229. This difference of four
thousand dollars the council thought
too great and they therefore rejected
the bids and ordered the city clerk
to at once give notice TO contractors
10 send in new bids. This action was
taken though it was believed by
some present that better
bids for the job could not be OBJ
tanned another time. There was some
who thought that the rejection of the
bids might delay the work and the
city engineer was asked if he thought
it would. Mr.. Doolittle said that if
bids could be received before the next
meeting of the council the work would
not be delayed.
Root & Biegel, of Spokane, were the
lowest bidders for the cement walks
in the Mckinley Avenue district OF
the Modern addition, their figure be-
ing SIS, 431.15. For the cement walks
in the Garfield district of the Modern
addition, Kiebler & Erickson, of Ia
coma, were low bidders, their figure
being s22, 1885. d. T. Daniels OF
North Yakima secured the contract
for grading the Garfield district of the
Modern addition, his price being $1S,-
GEO. Wilson and Hardy, local con-
tractors, bid fourteen cents per square
foot on the Naches avenue curbine
contract, the total amounting to
$279.22, and were awarded the con.

ried to the lanitor's room in the
academy. yhere Mr. Christian said
he had found Two robbers Arriving
there they found two leather suit
cases cut open and the contents mis-
sing.
The robbers, according to MI
Christian. had gone with more than
$500 worth of his belongings. He
had purchased "a new blue suit for
Easter at a cost Of S35 with other
necessary things to go with it. This
was taken. with diamond stickpin,
an opal stickpin, a $40 gold watch
and quantity of wearing apparel.
Up to the preesnt time none of this
has been recovered.
Mr.. Christian said that he had fin
ished his work in the church and was
returning to his room when he no
ticed light shining from its win
dows. Thinking that some of the
boys of the academy were up to
some of their tricks, Mr. Christian
armed himself with good sized
stick with which to chasitse them.
Opening the door, he was confronted
by two men armed with revolvers
who demanded that he throw up his
hands. Involuntarily he did so. the
stick knocking one of the revolvers
from its owners hand and throwing
it on the bed
Mr.. Christian ran down stairs with
all speed to the street, shouting
loudly all the way, he said, with the
two men following close behind. They
escaped. On of the men was masked
with a handkerchief over his face,
partly covering black beard. which
Christian thought was false. He did
not have time to observe the other
man.
In view of some things that have
transpired recently. Police Captain
Perry's suggests to the public gener-
ally not to leave money or other vain
ables in trunks, bags or blanket
rolls. especially around hotels If
owners have no safer place to put
their valuables they had better care
for them in their pockets.

the invited guests of the day and wher
the time for the speechmaking came
and the big talk was held the orators
OF the tribes impressed upon their
guests their feeling of regard and re-
spect for the white man and their
fun appreciation of the infinitely bet
ter conditions which come with de-
velopment and progress and the adop-
ton of the best Of the white mars
v-ays. The Indians, the Spokesman
said, are prepared for development Of
any kind that will be for the benefit
of themselves and their families. They
are not opposed to development as
many of the white men think but Will
welcome it, they said, their difficulty
being that they are not able, always,
to see the benefit in the development
which is thrust upon them. In other
words they declare that they do not
want to be compelled to adopt some
thing Just because they are told 1T is
good for them. But such things as
they know to be good they are. willing
to adopt and anxious to fill a more
progressive and Independent position
than has yet been accorded to them.
Those who witnessed the ceremony
and heard the sentiments of the In
dams Sunday declare both to have been
most impressive.

wife is still in critfcaI condition,
but may recover.
The two Indians are still in the
county Jail and nothing new has
transpired in their cases. Now that
one death has resulted from the as

be much more serious than il both
victims lived. Prosecuting Attorney
Ward has not vet announced what
his intentions in the matter are. but
