new TENTH STREET
BRIDGE SUGGESTED
Road Viewers Favor Cement
Structure and Grading of
Hospital Hill.

A new cement bridge for North
Tenth street over the Whitewater riv-
er, the grading of the hospital hill
from point about three quarters of
mile north of the bridge to the
bridge, is proposed in the report of
the viewers on the North Tenth street
improvement, which was made this
morning to the board of works. The
report will be submitted to the coun-
ty commissioners soon.
The city council has approved of
the improvement of North Tenth
street from Spring street in Spring
Grove to North H street under the
three mile gravel road law The coun-
Gil assented on condition that the
street within the corporation limits be
bricked. This is acceptable to the view
ers.
In autos and buggies, the viewers
and board of works with interested
citizens made a personal inspection of
the site of the proposed bridge this
morning. The present bridge is not
strong enough to hold a brick floor
and the brick street would run from
North H street to a point about 100
yards north of the bridge so the view
ers agreed that new bridge is need
ed. The present structure could be
moved elsewhere.
A cement span bridge, it was agreed,
would be very appropriate, and would
give the best satisfaction. Such a
structure would cost about $4,000, to
be borne by the county and township
The city would have to floor it.
The hill north of the bridge, which
is steep and very uneven is to be grad
ed. Estimates will be prepared soon,
but it is thought that about four feet
will be taken from the top of the hill,
and the low land on each side of the
bridge filled in from two or three feet,
making a gradual incline instead of
the steep hill now there. The lots at
the top of the hill which are now be-
low the road will be drained by the
road If it is cut down as planned.

GREETING
FOR THE BOOSTERS
Towns in Northern Part of
County Extend Richmond
Men Glad Hand"

Every rabbit, every chicken and ev-
cry chubby faced farmers child on the
route of the May Festival Boost
er's trip knows that the May Festival
is to be held beginning May %.
The fifteen cars with the hundred
men who left their business interests
in Richmond yesterday to electioneer
for Richmond and the May Festival
sped through the northern end of the
county on high gear only stopping to
give parades in the towns.
Aside from the minor casualties to
tires and small rear end collision
that broke a lamp all to little bits,
there We're no accidents. In Green's
fork the Palladium car gave out in
its right rear foot. While the boosters
were eating luncheon a novelty was
pulled off by feeding the car on oats.
This operation was performed by re-
moving the inner tube and filling the
casing full of oats. The people of
Greensboro found this first aid to the
injured one of the most interesting of
the features. Nobody knows exactly
what caused the mlshap to this tire
because at the crucial moment relief
car came along from town and took
the Palladium advance crew to do it's
scout work along the line.
There was terrific carnage among
the chickens around Greensboro yester-
day. The chicken families are deci-
mated and all that are left are day old
chicks
All joking aside the chicken dinners
they have up at Greensboro are enough
incentive to make the Richmond men
frequent visitors.
Then there was the group of young
girls who met the Boosters in Hagers-
town and threw butter scotch at them.
Everybody along the route was
out waiting for the Richmond delega-
tion and seemed complimented at the
visit.
Whether a single man, woman or
child from that territory comes to the
May Festival it is certain that the
prestige of Richmond was upheld.
AS the men at the Hagerstown Light
Inspection car works said: Were too
busy to come to the May Festival-but
Well be there some day.
Members of the Commercial club
who went on the trip seemed to be
unanimous in their approval of Boost
ers trips and said so. AS no attempt
was made to sell tickets in these
towns no net results can be announc-
ed but the managers of the trip were
particularly pleased.
Charles w. Jordan of the CONNER
cial club said: THE Richmond spirit
of cooperation is growing all the time
and it pays. There is not a man
here who will not turn in and help on
anything for Richmond and there are
a hundred representative business men
here

VICTIM-ROBS HIM

Charley Miller, colored, was arrest

other men assisted Miller in relieving

circles. and has been implicated in
several shady affairs. He viii be

SCENE A THAMBuRG.

HAMBURG. Ger, May 16.-Accom-
panied by Dowager Queen Louise and
three of her children, the body OF
King Frederick VIII. of Denmark. who
dropped dead in the street here Tues
day night. was shipped for Lubec on a
special funeral train today. The be-
reaved queen was prostrated with
grief and is under the care of two ply
sicians. The royal suite was in
mourning and showed evidences of
deepest grief.
The three royal children who ac-
companied the queen were Prince
Gustav and Princesses Dagmar and
1hyra. They were inconsolable over
the death of their father and insisted
that the private coach in which the
coffin was carried, should be strewn
with white roses.
From Lubec, the body was carried
to Travemunde, which is 8 miles north
of that city on Neustadt bay. There
it was taken on board the Danish ship
Dannebrog which conveyed by a Dan
ish warship, will carry the remains
of the late monarch to Copenhagen.
The coffin containing the royal body
was carried from the Hamburger-hof
hotel to the railway station early in
the day as the train was scheduled to
leave at O'Clock. The hotel was
draped in black and at very early
hour a crowd of curious had gathered
to see the cortege leave for the rail-
way station. The members of the roy
al family and the spite were conveyed
in closed carriages. Dowager Queen
Louise was dressed entirely in black
and held handkerchief to her face.
The undertakers who embalmed the
body declared that the face of the
dead monarch was as reposed as
though he were in sleep. His death
was evidently accompanied by no pain.
kilograms of coincidence from all
parts of the world poured in here
today. Those that came after the de-
parture of the Danish royal party were
forwarded to Copenhagen.
The queen mother and her children
will accompany the remains to Cop
enhagen on the Dannebrog. The ship
is expected to reach the Danish capi-
tai on Friday evening.
