Islander and his wife visited the fur niture store, and when the wife saw that beautifully polished antique washstand she fell in love with it, for it just filled her ideal. Her husband seemed to have a suspicion of the truth, and endeavored to distract her attention. But the affair ended by the woman purchasing the stand for $20, and it is now one of her most highly priZed possessions.

TURNS DOWN ROAD PLAN.
Houghton Council Rejects Proposal OF
Engineer Martin.


Following a visit of inspection the
Houghtou council accompanied by
County Road Engineer Martin Of the
site Of the proposed county road from
Houghton To Atlantic and the South
Range towns. TO complete which the
village was asked 20 build the con-
Meeting link which is within the VIII
lage limits, the council held a special
meeting and rejected the proposal.
The plan proposed by Engineer Mar
tin was that the village should buy
four lots connecting two streets in
West Houghton and construct a road
which would connect with the county
road The principal reason for sug-
gestion was that the grade Of the new
county road could be greatly reduced
by the new connecting link.
President Bawden took the stand
that the benefits derived would not be
commensurate with the outlay of
money which would be necessary and

QUESTION AT BRIEF SESSION

MORNING.

"Who owns the county bridge?" SUI
peryisor Rourke asked this question
at the regular monthly meeting of the
county board of supervisors this morn
ing. Does the county own it or does
the street railway company own.it?
ask this question because Of the fact
that teamsters either have TO unload
their sleighs i'm crossing or else pull
their horses heads on
The Franklin supervisor suggested
that rollers such as ne stated are used
I'm many fire stations be placed i'm the
floor Of the bridge over which heavily
loaded sleishs might run easily when
the snow has been cleared from the
car tracks. Mr.. Rourke also said that
there was too wide an opening at the
ends of the draw span, into which
horses We're liable 20 catch their hoofs.
"In fact" said Mr. Rourke, "ou
horse, has already been injured and
panking should be placed across the
openings. The horse 1 refer TO belongs

horse cannot yet be used and the coun-
ty is liable to hear more about it lat

Chairman Edwards suggested that
this was a matter for the bridge COM
mittee. but said that the care Of the
pIankiug Of the draw was in the con-
troll Of the traction company but tina;
the bridge committee might look in
10 the matter and see If anything can
be done Mr. Rourke then directed
attention 20 the lighting on the bridge
which ne said was antiquated. The
arc lights and the lights on the cars
caused much trouble he said. TO driv-
ers. who have 20 contend against the
glare from each. He thought that the
