FARGO Wrestler
Wins With EASE
FLOYD GLASS OF FARGO NOT on
w STAYS HIS FULL HOUR
WITHOUT BEING THROWN BUT
ALMOST THROWS HIS MUCH
HEAVIER OPPONENT.

Tower City Topic: Floyd Glass won
the handicap wrestling match against
Joe Lawrence Of Minneapolis at the
operahouse here last Saturday evening.
The match was scheduled between
Glass and Harry Mills of Minneapolis
but as Mills was injured a few days
ago so that he couldn't go on with the
match. e. L. Shave, his manager Sc
cured a heavier and better man and
made 1t a handicap match. Lawrence
was to throw Glass three times in
one hour. In a very short time after
the match started it was evident that
Lawrence had hard proposition on
his hands. While Glass is only about
Is years old he soon demonstrated that
he was thoroughly schooled in the
science of wrestling and was in the
best of condition-in fact he seemed
to be In much better condition than
his opponent-and at the end of the
match appeared to be just as fresh
as at the beginning while the same
could not be said of Lawrence. 1t
was the opinion Of nearly all present
that If 1t had been a finish match
best two out Of three-Glass would
have won it. The total time that both
Of the men were down on the mat did
not exceed five or six minutes. 1t
can not be said that Glass won the
handicap by keeping away from his
opponent for such was not the case
and several times he tried to throw
Lawrence, which he was not required
to do. If Glass develops into as good a
wrestler as he promises to do he will
be among the top-notohers.
The preliminary match between
Fred Wood of Fargo and Arnim
Rothke resulted in victory for Wood.
He won the first fall in two and one
half minutes and the next in six min
utes.
Glenn King and Randolph Husta,d
put up quite an interesting three
round boxing match.

Good Roads.

'Wouldn it be a good thing says the Melville Echo, to elect men who have charge of roads of this county some time who have little of Caesars spirit in them. Read the following clipping from an exchange"
 When Caesar took a north ward ride and grabbed the Gauls for Rome, what was the first thing he did to make them feel at home? Did he increase the peoples load and liberty forbid? :? No, he dug in and built good roads That's what old Caesar did.
 Did Caesar put the iron heel upon the foeman's breast, or did he try to make them feel that Roman Rule was best? What did he do to make them glad he'd come their midst amid? He built good roads from hill toI hill; good roads from vale to vale; he ran good roads movement till old Rome got all the kale. He told the folks to buy at home, to build their hills amid, until all roads led up to Rome that's what old Caesar did.
 If any town would make the town the center of the map, where folks will come and set tie down and live in plenty's lap; if any town it's own abodes of poverty would rid, let it go out and build good roads-just like old Caesar did"

That Newport Batesville Road.

Had you thought any more about the numerous road pro- iects that have been talked of more or less during the recent past? The Newark Journal, the Newport Independent and the Guard devoted several columns of space sometime ago to advo- eating and agitating the propo- sition of building a good road from here to Newport. Several citizens authorized the state ment that they would materially assist in such a project both in donations of cash and work, but the project does not seem to have generally struck a popular chord. It may be, although it is exceedingly difficult to compre- bend, that the people of Inde- pendence and surrounding coun- ties do not want any better roads, and if such is the case, they will never have them. It Ifs a certainty that very little travel can be had and an exceed ingly small amount of tonnage can be hauled upon these paper roads. It is certain that just a few people in each community can not, and should not be ex- pected to build the roads for all the others. It is not just that Mir. Jones should donate his money and labor ito building good roads for MT. Smith who reclines supinely and never even manifests any interest in any Iaudable public undertaking This Newport to Batesville roac ! might not appeal to some people for mercenary and selfish mo tives, but any good road in any community to any place is Z $ decided benefit to each com

Newport Building Notes.


 Newport Building Notes. eooccas ecgscCccoc9co
 Preparatory to delivery to the government of the lots on Hazel street upon which the federal building is to be erected, Jos. M and Tohn W. Stayton are mak- ing a number of changes in the houses owned by the estate be- tween Second and Third streets. The two large houses formerly occupied by T. D. Snetzer and B. G. Graham are to be turned sideways facing the street upon the Snetzer lot and joined by a hallway between the two. Ar chitect Bonnell drew the plans and the double house will be suitable for a boarding house or hotel. When completed, the owners state, it will present a very neat appearance.
 The old Hurley home will be moved to the lot south and tho Wallace home torn down when the government is ready to build.
 Upon the first lot, adjoining the government tract, the Staytons contemplate building a handsome two story brick edi- fee, with a store room on the first floor and office rooms on the second, which would be oc- cupied by the law firm.
 Joseph Balmaz on a recent trip to St. Louis purchased three lots on Laurel street for S1250 each from Mrs. Ike Gold man. They lay between the Drummond home on the corner and the cottage owned by Mrs. M. M. Erwin and occupied by o. c. Fairleigh. MT. Balmaz eX- poets to build an eight room, two story home for himself on the lot adjacent to the Drummond place and the plans of this home show that it will be a credit to one of our best residence streets. MT. Balmaz will build cottages on the other two lots, unless he should sell them to other parties figuring upon buying property | and building homes.
 Contractor D. A. Carr is ra- pidly completing the handsome home of o. D. Watson, corner of | Third and Vine street. This home will be one of the most modern in every way that has ever been erected in Newport in recent months. It is to be bungalow on the exterior, and two stories with eight rooms and tile roofing. The interior will be colonial in effect and a pretty feature will be central hall the entire length of the house. A living room and den on one side and with dining room and itchen will make up the rest of the downstairs rooms, while four large bed rooms and bath constitute the second floor, the entire build ing to be heated with steam fixtures of the American Radia- tor Company.
 An attractive feature of this home will be the living porch
