new ROUTE TO CAGES
Extension of West Eighth Avenue to
the Park Is Planned.

That the West Eighth avenue road
will be opened from Washburn avenue
west to Gage park seemed probable to-
day from the tone of petitions present
ed to the board of county commission
ers. All but one Of tha nr0nerty own
ers along the proposed new road have
signed the applications for an extern
sion of the street and several petitions
promised t. secure the name of the alb
sent property owner before night.
With the opening of the Eighth ave-
nue. road, the public will have three
routes to Gage park and property own
ers from Washburn to Highland ave-
nues will be afforded outlets without
ises. While the board has not taken
action on the extension of the West
Eighth avenue road, yet it seems prob
able that they will grant the extension
as soon as the petitions are filed and
deeds filed by the property owners.
For some time there has been a
lively agitation for car service to Gage
park and people along the proposed
new road believe that the street rail-
way will build west on Eighth avenue
when the road is opened to the public.
No official announcement to this ef-
feet has yet been made, but the West
Eighth avenue people argue that it is
the logical course and one which the
street railway would select when it ar
ranges to build to the park-if it ever
does.
The extension of the Eighth avenue
road will be more than a mile and a
half in length and will enter Gage
park at Highlan avenue, the east line
of the big park. Before car service
could be established. it would be nee
essary to erect a bridge across Wards
creek This, the commissioners would
not promise to do before some time
next year.

FROWNS ON The WAR.
DIR. LoveIand Believes Italy Has No
Chance Against Mohammedans.

Il don't believe that Christianity can
stand in the Orient if a Christian nation
wages war against the followers of Mo-
hammed." declared DR.. f L. LoVeland
in speaking Sunday night on The Cross
and the Crescent. The only way to
stop the Saracen invasion of the north
is the outstretched hand of peace.
TT is to be regretted that a Christian
nation should wage war with the object
of land grabbing. The danger is that
Italy has touched a match to the Mo-
Eanimedanisn powder magazine which
may result in a religious war such as has
never been seen in the history of the
world.
1.-THE English papers are not friendly
towards Italy in their comments on the
preset war and the papers in this coun-
Try almost without exception say that
Italy has transgressed all rules of The
Hague peace conference.
"A Christian nation saw chance to
get hold OF Tripoli regardless of the
rights of humanity. Italy declared war
ing the .unspeakable Turks and their
horrible butcheries, mind You. The habit
has grown up in recent years for any ma
ton to take a stroke at Turkey.
Turkey represents a country of not
only 80, 000,O 900 population, for when you
strike Tripoli you run in opposition to
100000 600 followers OF Mohammed.
Tripoli is the center of the greatest secret
organization in the world 1t numbers
15,O00.0C0 and was organized to perpetrate
the teachings of MOhammed.
Nearly 300000.000 persons pray five
times d day. When you get that many
people to pray five times day you have
great power You can't get a Methodist

that the law left him no option to
