70 Pave Streets With Gold.

Colorado Springs, Colo--The ]. F.
Hill Construction company Of Chi
cago, which has the contract at
$35O,000 for paving streets in the
business section, has contracted for
10000 or more tons of Cripple Greek
gold ore as a concrete basis. The ore
is worth 81 to SO per ton for its gold
contents besides its value as a filler.
When the paving is completed Colo
RADIO Springs citizens will walk and
drive over good yellow gold approx
mating 100000. The ore comes
crushed over the Short Line Road
exactly as it is fed into cyanide mills
in small squares and oblongs, and
in this way it is much better than
round boulders and much cheaper
than boulders crushed by hammers.
The availability of the ore in any
quantity makes it indispensable in
all concrete work in Colorado
Springs.

Caught by Contracts.

1t ought to be borne in mind al
ways that notes in certain forms,
which one gives to a certain person,
may pass into the hand of other per-
sons, and that these third persons
can collecte them without regard to
any collateral agreement which the
maker may have had with the one
to whom he originally gave the note.
Men are often astonished at this. Ii
used 10 be a custom of certain swind-
lers TO go through the country sell
ing some domestic article and to take
a note, which they prepared, from
the purchaser-at the same time as
surfing the purchaser that ii would
not be collected except upon certain
conditions and the fulfilling of GER
tain guarantees with respect to the
article. Then these swindlers would
take the notes, discount them in a
bank and disappear. When the notes
fell due the maker was compelled to
pay them, and was astonished to
find that all the collateral agree
ments and guarantees were Of no
benefit to him.
The rule to follow is that if one
makes a contract in writing he
should put into it everything relat-
ing to the contract in any manner;
understandings on the side. If there
are any such suggested put them
into the written paper with the other
things. Another suggestion that has
been repeated over and over again is
to read carefully every paper that
you sign.
There lived in a Southern town
an eccentric lawyer who handled a
great many estates. He made it a
rule never to sign any agreement on
the day on which it was Trawn.
When the terms were finally agreed
to and the paper prepared for sigma
lures he got up from the conference,
put the copy in his pocket and went
home until the next day. Such pre-
caution Is perhaps extreme, but no
man has ever devised a better rule
than TO 'sleep" on a contract when
it is a long, involved paper.-Satur-
day Evening Post.

Saginaw Has Curfew Law.

Saginaw, Mich.-Curfew is now
rung in Saginaw every night at 3
o'clock. Every person under the age
of 16 who is on the streets at that
time, unless accompanied by parent
or guadian, is ordered home immed-
lately by the police. In this connec-
ton il is recalled that Saginaw five
year ago had the name of being the
most wide-open town in Michigan.
There will be no more lettering
around street or in Railways
Of the young element of the COM
munity. The police are instructed to
enforce the ordinance and any
young person coming within the age
limit apprehended will be classed as
a juvenile disorderly. and according
to the state law will be subject to
punishment as an in%corrigible. Cur
few will be sounded exactly at 9
O'Clock every night by the fire bells
Of the city and the whistles of the
water works station. 1t is said in
this connection hat when the
west side water works whistle Is
turned loose no other signal will be
necessary in any part of the city. as
it has a booming sound that carries
a long distance.

DRAINAGE ACT CONSTITUTIONAL

A few weeks ago Judge Thomp-
son of the Wharton county district
court at Bay City, in the matter of
a Matagorda county drainage petit
ton, declared the state drainage law
unconstitutional.
An appeal was taken by the petit
TONERS and on the 9th inst, the court
OF civil appeals reversed the lower
court and decided that the law was
constitutional. The defeated par
ties now have thirty days in which
to enter an appeal to the supreme
court, falling which the law will
stand as now interpreted by the
court of civil appeals.
This decision Is ~far-reaching and
is Of the greatest interest ID the
farmers and land owners in drain
age districts No. 2 and 3 Of Cameron
county which are directly affected
by the decision.

You ink your finger tips, then
