the man with this record, and his neat,
well kept farm near Marinette, this
state. is positive evidence Of his frugal
ity and industriousness. He came to
this country eight years ago, unable to
speak single word of English. Most
of the work on the buildings was done
by Malkowski personally during the
hours his fellow workmen were sleeping.

IMPROVEMENT OF STREETS.
City Council Wrestling with Problem TO
Modernixe High and Commerce.
Expert Engineer Coming Here Saturday.

The common council is considering a
regular and special meetings the mat
ter of modern and durable street i'm
provements for Mineral Point. Differ
ent methods are being carefully inves'
tigated with view of adopting the
one best suited to this town.
Work will first be commenced on
Commerce and High streets and when
they are improved from the railway
station to the Methodist Episcopal
church the work will be extended to
other parts of the city.
John f. Icke, city engineer of Madi-
son. has been secured to come and look
over the ground, make recommends
tions and have specifications drawn for
the work. He will be here on Satur-
day, and soon thereafter special
meeting of the council will be called to
decide on the kind of pavement and
provide for meeting the cost of inn
provement.
Heretofore the entire cost of street
improvements in Mineral Point has
been paid out of funds raised by gener-
al taxation. But this system no longer
prevails in towns where any extensive
street improvements are made.
A plan which is favored by MAORI
ty of the council would place one-third
of the entire cost of the improvement
of the street upon the abutting proper
ty on each side of the street. That is
to say the city would pay one-third and
the property on both sides would pay
two-thirds.
Mr.. lcke comes highly recommended
as capable and trustworthy man. AS
engineer of Madison he has successful
ly planned and carried out many ex-
tensive street improvements.

sissippi. For ten years he has been
practicing law i'm Havana. and was
counsel for this country in the first
Intervention proceedings in Cuba.

there should be any Lamars in Flor

islands that once belonged To Spain.
However. / don't want to question the
assertion that the first Lamars in this
country were Huguenots Maybe they
were. 1t has been often remarked
that many of the Lamar family had
long names. IL happened this way:
Old Zachariah Lamar who lived i'm

This was the father of the late assOci-
ate justice of the supreme court. A
brother was named Mirabeau Bona

The latter went with Sam Houston
to Mexico, and was with Houston at
