TWO STREETS ORDERED PAVED

The ordinances for macadamlzlng
South Lafayette avenue and West
Second street which had betn
brought up ON first reading at for
mer meeting were on Monday
evening passed by the council in
their adjourned session. In accord
ance with the resolution of the
council on December 8, the macad-
amlzing on South Lafayette is to be
not to exceed 80 feet width and for
distance from the South line of
Main to the North line of Seventh
street. The second ordinance pro.
vides for grading, curbing and ma
cadamizing West Second street
from the west line of South Garfield
to the east line of South Lafayette
avenue not to exceed "a feet in
width.
The action was taken after the
council had adopted the moHon of
Bideau and Freeman that the
council accept the proposition
made to the streets and alley com
mittee by Jones Brothers whereby
they would deed to the city certain
strips of land from lots which they
own and in return receive from the
city certain amount of dirt and
the promise of walling up the city
ditch where it adjoins their property.
The plan of the committee to divert
the direction of the creek and get
the ditch out of the street and
thereby make material saving to
the city in the matter of bridge
building which was required by the
contemplated paving was thereby
endorsed.
The scheme had been devised by
the street and alley committee bul
had not been previously approved
because chairman Nation had wished
to wait for the consideration of II
by Bldeau, member OF the com
mittee and a property owner
directly concerned. Bideau stated
in the discussion that he favored
the proposition as it would be ad
vantageous to the city as well al
several property owners. Hedeer
favored the adoption of the recon-
mendatlon of the committee, ant
Johnson as a member stated that i
the streets were to be paved th'
proposition for changing the creel
in accordance with the agreemen
with Jones Brothers was the bes
that the city could get.

VERY gin has an ideal Man whom
n she hopes some day to find and
S0 turn into a Perfect Husband. The
talented Miss Laura Jean Libbey drew
a composite ideal that appealed to multi
tudes. William Gillette, the actor, was
another. Usually girls ideal before mar
riage can be found by taking her hus-
band and conjurlng up a man absolutely
different In every point 1t can be un'
derstood that most girls without money
think Of an ideal with lots Of money. just
as Cinderella always dreams Of the Prince
and the beggar maid Of King Cophetua.
The subject Of any girls ideal is deeply
interesting and important psychological
study. But how about the Ideal Of girl
with beauty, millions and social position?
The question Is not a frivolous one
Nothing that has S15, 100000 attached to II

be frivolous. 1t Is provoked by the fact
that Miss Lila Bramhall Gilbert, grand

TELL OF PIRATES
Sailors Rescued by Steamer
From Island.
Seaman Declare They Were Attacked
by srisands When Storm Threat
ened to Send Vessel to Bot
tom-Search for Bandits.

New York.-When the steamer Al
Iemania arrived in port recently a
thrilling story of shipwreck and attack
by pirates was told by thirteen sail
ors of the Italian Bark Genee, on
board the Allemania, and rescued by
the latter boat when in desperate
plight at Inagua, the Bahamas.
According TO the story told by the
rescued sailors, the Genee set out
from Inagua on May 16, bound for
Marseilles, with a costly cargo of
hardwood, and when a short distance
out from port had encountered a Sc
we're storm which carried them out
of their course and threatened to send
them to the bottom.
After working the pumps for sew
eral days, the crew was on the point
of deserving the bark and taking to
the boats, when a number Of small
sailboats came alongside, and the &C.
cupants Of these boats, numbering
more than 100, armed with guns and
revolvers, boarded the Genee and Or
dered the crew to surrender. An at
tempt was made by the crew to scut-
tie the Genee, and fight ensued in
which the defenders were badly worst
ed. They We're then ordered into the
small boats without water or provis-
ions.
After rowing aimlessly for two days,
the crew Of the Genee made land at
one of the smaller Bahamas and hoist
ed a signal of distress, which was
seen by the lookout on the steamer
Allemania, which rescued them, near
ly dead from exposure and hunger.
A British revenue cutter was dispatch
ed in pursuit of the pirates. No re-
port of a capture had been received
by the Allemania up to the time of
leaving Inagu for New York city.
All Of the members of the crew
Genee were on board the Allemania
when she arrived here except the
CAPTAIN, Joseph Capello, and the first
mate, who remained at the Bahamas
to prosecute the search for the pi-
rates. The United States government
will be asked to cooperate with the
British authorities in putting a stop
to the activity of the pirates in Ba-
hama waters.
Some months ago the steamer
Prince Joachim, plying between the
West Indies and New York, went
aground at about the same point,
where the crew of the Genee was ship
wrecked, and was boarded by pirates,
who ransacked the ship for valuables
and robbed the passengers.
