In all the trip he experienced no trouble with his car and but little with the roads. All along the weather and road conditions were most favorable, adding to the joys of outdoor motoring. At the Detroit factory, the Jewetts met a fine bunch of people and were treated in the most hospitable fashion.

of them carrying the engine"

a box about as big as a small office

Alarms are given from two

the city, where men with spy

Most of the excitement in fire
here comes from the women folk.
They are ordinarily so excluded
from the world that blaze near
a Turks harem with the chance
of fremen coming in to rescue the
inmates or put out the flames
causes a tremendous uproar.
The first thing the women do is
to get something to cover their
faces. This done they feel as if
they were almost ready for any
thing. A Turkish woman feels
perfectly modest if she has her
face covered, though she may
have practically nothing on the
rest of her body.

frightful odors.
Then come the dogs. They
rush into the mess scattering it in
all directions, each striving for
the choicest morsels. In two min

THE FLUSHERS AGAIN
Two Flushers Said to Be
Needed to Clean Streets.

An agent of the Studebaker Wagon
company urged members of the board
of works to purchase a street flusher
next year. The need of a flusher is
considered sufficient by some men,
bers to justify its purchase.
President B. A. Kennepohl OF the
board of works. believes. because of
additional streets made in the city
within the past year. that two flushers
are needed. An appropriation was
made last year for a flusher, but the
money was transferred TO another &C
count. When the president of the
board of works recently visited Win
chester for the purpose of seeing one
of the flushers operated, he was pleas
ed with the success of the machine.
The Winchester street commissioner
reported that they would not do with
out the machine for three times the
cost.
The cost of the flushers will not be
so large but that the city can stand the
expense of two. and then we will be
able to keep the streets clean" said
Kennepohl. We have beautiful city
and we should keep it looking ebauti-
full. Clean streets are as necessary TO
public health as any other thing

He also had two pipes which were

he believes he will make a fortune.
He was given half an hour to get out

he wanted TO get 10 Pennsylvania. He
was told the shortest route was over

WILL REVIEW THE
ROAD IMPROVE MENT
Commissioners Want an Es-
innate on Improvement
of National Road.

AT the meeting of the board Of
county commissioners tomorrow the
viewers recently appointed on the
matter of the improving of the Ma
tional road east will be reinstructeG to
view the road and to secure an esti-
mate of the cost of the improvement,
in case the tracks of the Ohio and Ell
ectric traction company are placed in
the middle of the road beginning at
the Fair grounds. 1t will be necessary
for the viewers to submit a revised
report
With the interurban tracks in the
middle of the road the cost of the i'm
provement would be more than was
first estimated, as it will be necessary
to construct curbs and cutters on both
sides of the road, whereas if the tracks
We're left on the side of the road, curb
ing and cutters would be constructed

The county commissioners are ia
VOrable to the plan of placing the
tracks in the middle of the thorough
fare. Recently a petition was present
ed to the board by residents on both
sides of the road and by officials of
the Terre Haute, indianapolis and
Eastern traction company.
Gravel road bonds, amounting to
$4,000 will be signed tomorrow by the
commissioners OF this amount SCI 900
is for the Minor road and $1,000 for
the Scantland road. These bonds will
be sold December 81, by County
Treasurer AlbertsOn.
Allowances for contracts which
have been completed during this year
will be made tomorrow.
The county council will meet Janu-
