tering Church

Miss Lille Wilson, as years old,
was stricken with heart disease as
she was entering Holy Redeemer
church, Dix and Junction-aves., in
advance of the wedding party OF her
brother. Clyde, and Miss Eleanor
O'Connor Tuesday morning
The bridal party was not appraised
OF the tragedy, as Miss Wilson was
carried to a nearby drug store, where
she died within a few moments.
As she was dying, the bride and
groom, all unconscious OF her fate,
marched to the altar, and took the
marriage VOWS.
Afterward they were told OF the
death OF Miss Wilson. She roomed at
Montcalm and Clifford-sts.
Another brother, Elwood j. Wilson,
machinist, resides at No. 673 TCt
ledo-ave.. and he took charge of the
body, after it had been viewed by
Coroner Rothacher
The wedding feast had been spread
in Elwood Wilson's home, and great
preparations for a merry time had
been made. The plans were aban-
doned. and the body, which now lies
in the undertaking rooms OF w. f.
Hackett, No. 634 Dix.ave., WIN be
taken to the house where It was ex-
pected 70 celebrate the wedding feast.

PRINCETON, n. j., Oct. 29.-Satis.
the challenge OF Col. Roosevelt TO de-
fend his trust policy, Gov. Wilson pre-
pared today TO discuss this issue in
all his remaining speeches OF the
campaign. The reply came at she
close OF his meeting in Philadelphia
Just before midnight.
Wilson declared that so TAR as he
was concerned. he was opposed TO
big brother government, he said:
We are going TO undertake TO do
II by the orlginatiye method.
We have had disclosed in recent
years all the process BY which monop-
oily is established and competition
prevented, and say that We c:n re-
move those obstacles one by one as
they disclose themselves by directing
the general statutes OF the federal
Jaw against them.

system, then You have freed Amer

The activity of the Republican ma
tional committee in predicting hard
times If a Democratic president is
elected, was commented on by Gov.
Wilson, who said
Everywhere | 90 I read upon the
billboards the motto: 1t is better 10
be safe than to be sorry The same
misgiving and paralysis is upon that
branch OF the Republican party that
lay upon 1t just before and after the
last presidential election Then the
gentlemen proposed reform, and
whenever il was proposed they said
no, 1t ought to be done, but that is
not exactly the way to do II, and il is
better TO be safe than 10 be sorry.
And now they say: Beware, IL

PAVING EXPENSE
QUADRUPLES in
ELEVEN YEARS
Commissioner Haarer Gives Out
Interesting Statement of In
crease in ID. p. w. Budget
CEDAR BLOCKS SENT TO
DISCARD FOUR YEARS AGO
Cost of Help and Office Hire
Grows More Slowly Than
Work Accomplished

That the next commissioner OF pub
lie works must be an executive OF
great business capacity TO keep up the
work OF the department, is shown By
a resume of street and alley paving in
the last IL years, as given out by
Commissioner Haarer Tuesday, show
ing that IN the period specified the
expenditures for such work has near
iy quadrupled. In the fiscal year or
l9ol-1902 the sum OF $563,000 was
spent by the city for street and alley
paving. In the present fiscal year
there will be spent s2,205, 5S2.4O, or
nearly four times the amount spent
IL years ago. The total amount spent
by the city in that period for street
and alley paving is Sill, 15S,7lS.4O. The
amounts, year by year, dating from
the fiscal year 1902, are as follows;
1903. S5s1,07l; 1904, S671,733; 1905,
s600,S2S 1906, s6S2,950; 1907. $746-
or; 1908, SS35,52l; 1909, $SS9,947;
1910, s952,432; 1911, $976,462; 1912,
81, 463,liS 1913, s2,205, 5S2.40.
The report shows that $l43,042 was
spent In 1902 for resurfacing streets
with cedar. No money will be spent
for resurfacing with cedar blocks this
year. The largest single appropria-
ton for paving purposes in 1902 was
for repaving with cedar block, $2l5,-
665, while no money has been spent
for that purpose since 1908. While
the cedar paving has been discon-
tinued, brick, concrete and asphalt
have forged TO the front, and this
year creosote block, which was not
used generally in the department I'M
III 1908, calls for the largest single ap-
preparation for paving purposes,
S532,925.
The report shows the tremendous
increase in the work done by the de-
partment of public works" said Com
missioner Haarer. Some OF the othSr
departments will show similar gains.
The percentage of increase for help
and Office hire, however, would not
come TO anywhere near the perceIr
age OF increase in the amount OF work
