ing of the Santa Fe tracks, an old,
narrow, rotten bridge across a drain
has been replaced with a big drain
pipe and a fill that makes the place
much safer than before. The old
bridge hardly was wide enough to &C
commodate two teams. The new
grade is as wide as the street, and an
ample drain pipe has been placed be-
meath it to take care of surface
water.
Grading and filling is being done in
the vicinity of East Euclid avenue,
and in the new additions in that
neighborhood, including the addition
that occupies what formerly was
Skene's park, leveling up the streets
and putting them in shape for use.
A new. crossing has been installed
on Eighth street where it crosses the
Santa Fe tracks, and work on the
crossings at Kansas avenue and First
street is being pushed by the Santa
Fe. The other railroads using the
crossing will follow this lead and will
make the crossing safe and much
smoother than heretofore
A great deal of other work is be-
ing done. Several short strips of
pavement are being laid, alleys are
being paved in the downtown districts
and the department has under its
control the street sweeping and clean
ing gangs as we'll as the sprinkling
gangs.

NEEDS STATE FUNDS.
Appeal From Western Kansas for
Share of Deposits.

The Beaver Valley Booster, pub
lished at Cedar Bluffs, Kan, prints
the following suggestions looking to
the improvement of conditions in that
part of the state:
why not all the bankers, promi-
nent business men and farmers all
over the county make a concerted eff
fort by organizing with such men as
John P. O'Grady, H. o. Douglas, Otis
L. Benton, Campbell Dean and Wilbur
and the Oberline Mercantile and 9TH
ers equally strong at the head to
make a business like appeal for some
of the state funds to be placed in De-
catur county, making one or the other
of the Oberlin banks a depository for
such funds and to be distributed con-
servatively with the other banks in
the county to help tide the farmers
and business men through until we
do raise crops in this county?
1.-The wheat raised the last seven
years is not enough to get seed back
and the corn crop has also been a
failure In this time farmers have
sold off all their stock to buy seed to
put in more crops until they are in
debt. Many will be obliged to leave
unless we find some plan to keep
them here. There never was a more
honorable, hard working class of
farmers on the earth than we have
in northwest Kansas. They do not
need what some call aid, but they are
Kansans by working as much as 80
years trying to hold their own against
adverse circumstances to be a credit
to our more fortunate brothers in
eastern Kansas, where they raise good
crops and have plenty, where bank
deposits are the largest in history of
the state.
Our bank commissioner, Charles
NJ Sawyer, is from northwest Kansas
and knows the needs of this country
at a time like this and we are sure he
will use his best efforts to do some
thing along the lines stated.
I'VE are proud, independent
bunch of folks out here, have stuck
through chinch bugs, grasshoppers,
drouth. hot winds, horse plague and
many other drawbacks but we are
duty bound to stick to the ship until
success is written on our banner"

ABOvETHE CLOUDS
Feature of Battle of Chatta-
nOOga to Be Reproduced.
In Fireworks for Entertain
ment of the G.. A. r..

Chattanooga, Tenn, July 19.-The
program for the entertainment of the
visitors to the forty-seventh national
encampment of the Grand Army of the
Republic here September 1920, is be-
ing worked out with all possible dis
patch. Many special features for the
entertainment of the veterans and visl-
tors are down on the program, among
them being the Battle Above the
Clouds reproduced in fireworks. This
spectacle will be the best of the week.
and will be visible from the entire sur
rounding country Lookout Mountain
will be ablaze with fireworks, and the
transportation facilities will be ade-
quate to the accommodation of the
large crowd that is expected to wit
ness the spectacle from a closer view
than the valley below. The incline rail-
way and the new surface line will be
in operation, frequent schedules being
arranged for the occasion.
Another feature in the fireworks line
has been decided upon for Signal point
on Walden's ridge north of Chattanoo-
ga. This point was used as signal
station by the Union army in 1853. 1t
has been decided to have a large signal
fire to blaze from this point every
night during the encampment. This
signal fire will be visible from half
dozen states. A modern hotel has just
been completed near Signal point, and
guests during the encampment. Troll
ley lines and automobiles will convery
passengers from the city to the noun
tain in 80 minutes, giving them an OPP
portunity to enjoy the mountain scene
ry and climate at reasonable cost.
The Tennessee river flowing within
few hundred yards of the business dis
tricts of the city, will offer pleasures
in the way of boating and motor
boat races, with possibly flights of hy-
dro-aeroplanes. The Tennessee river
at Chattanooga offers to the lover of
scenic beauty delightful entertainment.
Nowhere in the country is finer scenery
to be found, consisting of mountain,
and plain, and both placid and turbul-
ent waters.
Attractive features will be added to
the program of entertainment from
time to time, and the veterans and visi-
tors to the encampment may be asSur-
ed that much to delight them will be
furnished by the committee having
these events in charge.

BOY BEES FOR DEATH.
Face Burned by Roman Candle-May
Lose Eyesight-

Washington. Kan, July 19.-Hubert
Pierce, eight years DID, was badly in
jured about the face Friday morning
by the explosion of some fireworks.
He had found what he supposed was
an extinct Roman candle and was try
ing to light it. He looked into the
business end TO see whether or not it
was burning. An eye specialist was
summoned from Concordta Immediate
ly and the little fellow was rushed to
a hospital. His face seems literally
shot to pieces, being encrusted with
powder all over to the depth of an
eighth of an inch.
He begs his parents to kill him and
end the pain and the fear that he may
never see again. His father is a res
