REMONSTRANCE ON
PAVING A STREET

The board of works passed fourteen
final assessment rolls for the street
oiling this morning. There was no
complaint to any assessment. The to-
tai cost of oiling the streets under
public contract this year was $1,000.
The assessments are payable until
September % without interest but af-
ter that time the cost will be placed
on the tax duplicates at per centin-
terest.
A majority of the property owners
on North G street between Sixth and
Seventh streets demonstrated against
the proposed bricking of G street.
The petition was presented recently
by a coal company and the property
owners believe that the company
should pay the largest part OF the
cost. The improvement resolution was
confirmed and referred to council for
action.

BIC REALTY DEAL
IS BEING RUMORED
Vaughan Block Tenants to
Have Less Than Year Va
cation Notice.

Walter Vaughan, executor of the es-
tate of his father, the late E. G..
Vaughan, has notified tenants of build
ings and places of business of the es-
tate that beginning September, 1914,
the renters would not have a years
notice to evacuate the premises as
was the rule when e. G. Vaughan was
alive
The tenants of these properties are
all merchants, conducting business in
rooms from the alley near the Palace
theatre to the corner of Eighth and
Main streets and then extending down
Eighth street to Sailor street
While E. G. Vaughan was living, he
permitted his tenants years notice
should it be deemed necessary to
have their particular place of business
vacated. Walter Vaughan has in
formed the merchants that under the
present management, less than a
year would be given for notice. Mr..
Vaughan stated his reason for doing
this was because at some future time
1t may be the desire of the heirs of
the estate to sell the property. Should
they consider such a course wise, a
years time would be too long to wait
before the transfer could be effected.
Before the flood of last March it
was rumored that a Dayton realty
concern was negotiating to buy the
property with the intention of erecting
a large building.
After Mr.. Vaughan informed the
renters Of the property of the new or
der, this rumor became current, but
he says no negotiations are on and
he has no knowledge of any prospec-
tive deal to transfer the properties.
The new order, he says, is taken as a
mere precautiOn against long delay
should negotiations for the sale of the
estate be opened.

Judge Duncan is quoted by Bond as
saying that the commission has
enough work to keep it busy until
1915 if no more is added to what they
now have before them.

"A committee composed of Charles
Jordan, Richard Sedgwick and John
Davenport asked the board for per-
mission to use the park in 1914, in
spite of the fact that the use of the
park had been granted this year on
the condition that the directors of the
Chautauqua association did not ask
for the privilege again.
Mr. Jordan stated that Morton park
will not be favorable location next
year as the improvement of the park
will then still be under way. ut is
doubtful" he said. 'if sufficient inter-
est in Morton park will have been
aroused by that time to draw the pres
ent Chautauqua crowds, and many
persons have asked that the Glen be
the site Of the assembly again next
year.
This Chautauqua is the third larg-
est in existence. The two larger are
Winona and the mother Chautauqua
at Lake Chautauqua, New York.
There is no denial on the part of the
promoters that the location has had
much to do with the success of the
assemblies here. The spring water,
the large natural amphitheater and
the fine park have all been contribu-
tors to the growth and present stand
ing of this Chautauuua.

Mr.. Williams said he would only in
stitute the minimum requirements of
the vocational law in Wayne county
the coming year. This class of in
struction will have to be taken up
gradually and the first year we will
only do what the law requires" he
said. Mr. Williams further stated that
the boys and girls would be instruct
ed as to corn scoring and stock judg-
ing in as many of the schools as pos
sible. He expects many of the school
children in this community to COM
pete for the prizes offered by the Fall
Festival, believing this to be one of
the most effective means of creating
enthusiasm and interest among the
school children in the better farm
movement
IN Cambridge City the course in
agriculture did not meet the approval
of the school officials nor the stu
dents. Statements were made to the
effect that mechanical training cOurs-

and both will be granted. Manual
training will be taught in a scientific

SAL WALTON ARMY
MAKES COMPLAINT

Ensign Vaudeville of the Salvation
Army says that much confusion and
misunderstanding has arisen since the
American Rescue Workers, formerly
the American Salvation Army, came
to the city and began work.
For some time, Ensign Vaudeville
says, the Salvation Army has been
collecting food and clothing which was
distributed to the city's poor. The
American Rescue Workers have been
calling upon the homes and gather
ing things which they said they were
doing for the army. Investigation
showed that it was not for the Saliva
ton Army, as was intended, but was
being used by the Rescue Workers
The matter was called to the attention
of Ensign Vaudeville when a person
came to the Salvation Army quarters
asking for free clothing, saying that
the clothing collected by the Rescue
Workers was being sold and the food
used by the Workers at their house
on North Fifteenth.
Ensign Vaudeville says that he has
positive proof of a number of cases
where the Rescue Workers have col
lected articles for the Army" He will
take the matter up with Mayor Zim-
norman and Chief of Police German
There is no connection between the
two organizations and this statement
is made to make clear the relation to
the citizens of Richmond.

]. H. K|bBEY HERE;
DISCUSSES JAPAN
Former Local Man and Ex-
Governor of Arizona Sees
a Yellow Peril.

That the facile hand of japanese
diplomacy is in a measure responsible
for the present situation in Mexico,
is the opinion of Joseph II. Kibbey,
former territorial governor of Arizona
who with his wife is visiting relatives
in this city
Mr.. Kibbey states that the people
who live near the Mexican border look
with disfayor upon the idea of inter
vention on the part of the United
States in the internal affairs of Mex
leo, but most of them seem to think
that sooner or later it will be abso-
lutely necessary if the government in
tends to maintain the Monroce doc
trine.
Owing to the bitter enmity between
the Mexicans and Americans which
exists where the two races are thrown
together, the newspapers in the south
west are having little to say about the
present crisis, fearing lest some i'll
considered remark might result in I'M
told harm to their friends in the inter
Tor of Mexico.
Would Cause Massacre.
Mr.. k1bbey thinks that 1t is for the
same reason that President Wilson is
being very careful in his dealings with
the question.
Il feel almost sure that the slightest
move toward armed Intervention
would mean a general massacre of
Americans residing in Mexico" said
Mr.. Kibbey.
1T is the sentiment at Phoenix.
where I reside, that the United States
must intervene sooner or later. This
would mean a cash indemnity, which
Mexico cannot pay. Annexation of
part Of her territory would probably
result. Americans are not safe there
at the present time, but the trouble is
that many of them are afraid that they
will be killed if they attempt to flee
the country.
Mr. Kibbey since leaving his home
in Richmond twenty-eight years ago,
has been territorial governor, attor-
ney general and member of the judi
ciary of Arizona. He and his wife are
visiting the latter's cousin, Mrs. C. ].
