Relative To The Paving Of
COShOCtOn Avenue
Between Street Committee
And City Engineer
May Also Pave East Chestnut
St. This Summer

At meeting held Saturday after
noon by the street committee of the
city council, City Engineer Blinn and
Solicitor Leonard, the advisability of
paving Coshocton avenue was discuss
ed. The meeting was the direct re-
suit Of petition read before council
from large number of property own.
ers on Coshocton avenue asking that
the street be improved by paving.
Nothing definite was done at this
meeting except matters concerning
the paving of the above named street.
Concerning the improvement of the
avenue the cost was first discussed.
A consideration of the width, the
kind of curbing and the kind of paw.
ing was taken up and Engineer Blinn
suggested that the pavement be con.
structed of concrete foundation or
base with a bituminous facing. This
kind of pavement Mr.. Blinn said, is
just as serviceable as brick and is a
great deal cheaper.
However, a decision was not reached
at this meeting concerning the kind OF
material to be used, but Engineer
Blinn was instructed to draw up plans
| and to figure on the comparative pric
es of brick pavement and con
! crete and bituminous pavement. This
, report will be made by Mr.. Blinn al
future meeting of the committee.
During the course of the meeting il
was suggested that it would be 6
to the point where Coshocton avenue
branches off. This done there would
be a continuous pavement from the
central portion of the city to the cor
poration line on Coshocton avenue
Engineer Blinn was instructed to in
clude the paving of East Chestnut t
the above specified point in his plan:
and figures.
In considering the paving of the
streets in question is was deemed
very advisable to construct sewe
lines along the said streets before tn,
work of paving is begun at all. TIL,
plans and the estimate of the eX
pense will be in the hands of Engin
eer Blinn.
The street committee is made up o
Councilman Weaver, Salisbury ant

1RUDGE
Miles Through The Snow To
Seek Help

Louisville, KY, Jan. 1.-two CEN
tenarians, Sadie Payne, 100 years old,
and Malinda Thomlin, 102 years old,
negroes, were callers at the winter
commissary headquarters today seek
ing charity.
They trudged through the snow
from their homes on the outskirts of
the city two and one half miles to
town. Their plea for succor was not
in vain. When they left the commits
sary they staggered under the weight
of heavy baskets of provisions which
had been given them. The continued
cold weather brought out a long
stream of destitute who called at the
commissary during the day. The ap'
plicants numbered more than 200 and
as many baskets containing rations
for five were distributed. There was
a great run on food and clothing.

ACCIDENT
Occurs South OF The City
Monday Morning
In Which A Brandon Man Is
Badly Injured

Mr.. and Mrs. Upton Watson of
Brandon figured in an exciting acci-
dent, which occurred just south of the
city, Monday morning at about 10
o'clock when the horse which they were
driving frightened at train and up
set the buggy. Mt. Watson sustained
dislocated shoulder.
Mr.. and Mrs. Watson had made
short visit in Mt. Vernon and were
starting on the return trip and had
reached a point almost to the B. &c o.
railroad south of the city when their
horse frightened at an approaching
train. The buggy was upset and the
occupants were thrown heavily to the
ground. Mr. Watson alighted on his
right shoulder causing dislocation.
Mrs. Watson was not injured to any
extent above few painful bruises.
The injured man was assisted to a
neighboring residence where a sur.
geon was summoned to reduce the
dislocation.

A Wild Scramble To Escape
The Raiders

Newark, o., Jan. 15-Forty-nine
sports, from nearly dozen Ohio cit
les, but including only one from New
ark, who had intended to pull off a
cooking main in Columbus last night
were arrested early this morning in
the basement of the Mound Builders
Hotel in Mound Builders formerly
Ildewilde Park), on the outskirts of
Newark They had between 80 and
40 birds and were just getting down
TO the preliminaries when the entire
police department, reinforced by the
sheriff of Licking County and half a
dozen deputies, surrounded the build
ing at $40, broke in the doors and
gathered them in.
The captured gamesters, including
a Clinton County official, prominent
Columbus surgeon and probably 20
lawyers and doctors of high standing,
had intended to pull off the main in
Columbus. but the police got wind of
1t, so they chartered an electric car
after midnight and got to the scene of
the matches at this morning. They
came from Cincinnati, Cleveland, Co.
lumbus, Lancaster, Circleville, Wash
ington C. H., GAINESVILLE, Coshocton
and Mt. Vernon.
There was a wild scramble to es-
cape, but the raiders rounded up 80,
loaded the patrol wagon full and
marched the rest two miles through
the streets to the city prison, which,
with the jail, was soon full, as II 9TH
ers were gathered up around the ho.
tells. Some of these protested against
arrest, but the police took only those
whom they recognized as having been
at the main.
With the city prison and Jail packed
to capacity, police court was convened
at once and the cases disposed of. All
the 40 paid $40 and costs. The latter
were 81 in each case, so that the city
realized 1886 by the proceedings. The
men arrested and fined were about
three-fifths of those present at the
main.
This was the third main pulled of
here since Dec. 1. The first was in
one of the county fair buildings, and
the second, the Saturday before
Christmas, in the park pavilion. The
sports got away with both of these
in which large sums of money changed
hands. The city was the only winner
in this one, which was brought here
by accident.

WEATHER
In February 1899 Even Cold.
ef Than Last Week
Something From Banner
Files About The Temper
ature Then

One of the Oldest residents of Mt.
Vernon remarked today: "As we'll as
can remember, Saturday morning
was the coolest that l ever exper-
fenced in Mt. Vernon"
There has been just as cold weather
in Mt Vernon and it has happened
within the last thirteen years.
The following taken from the Daily
Banner of Friday, February 10, 1899,
will show that the weather was eX-
tremely cold on or about that date:
"The present cold spell probably
reached it's greatest intensity Thurs
day night when all the records of
years were broken for low tempera-
ture. At the c. A. G. C. depot at
daylight Friday the thermometer reg
istered 80 degrees below zero, and at
the N. w. Elevator & Mill Co., at sew
en- o'clock the registry was q degrees
below.
Thursday was the coldest day of
which there is any record in this city.
There may have been days during
some time of which there was as low
temperature, but the records do not
disclose a day where the temperature
remained constantly below zero.
"At noon Thursday the temperature
had dropped to IA below. 1t continued
to drop all afternoon and at dark 20
degrees below was generally recorded
all over the CITY, The intensity of the
cold increased with the night and in
consequence there was much suffering
all over the city. Water pipes every
where were frozen though the big wat
er mains of the city escaped and are
in good working order today.
zone gentleman who has spent his
lifetime in this city remarked that he
had never seen day, until Thursday,
when the mercury remained below
zero for the entire day. There was no
wind stirring and on Thursday night a
dead calm prevailed. This rendered
the weather less severe than had a
| gale blown.
"The cold spell breaks all records
everywhere for February. The coolest
February heretofore recorded was on
February IL, 1885, when the mercury
fell to II below. The coolest Janu-
aries recorded are January 8, 1879, 20
degrees below and January 6, 1884, 81
degrees below"
