CITY MAY ENGAGE
STREET INSPECTOR

An adjourned session of council to-
night for the consideration of the bud
get which passed first reading at last
weeks special session, has been
thrown open for all kinds of business.
1t the last week it has developed
among city officials that the budget
as it now stands will pass council.
There will be no change, as far as any
official could see today.
The committee on sewers, streets
and alleys will have a report to make
regarding a new ordinance to replace
the old street repair ordinances. The
committee will recommend the APP
pointment of an inspector to have
charge of all street repairs and enforce
ordinances and public service corpora
ton agreements.
The Light, Heat and Power COM
pany, whose gas excavations were the
cause of the agitation for more bind
ing ordinance, has employed d. G.
Gem as inspector. He will be retain
ed until the city takes some action
/ toward employing a man. Board of
works members approved the employ
ment of Mr.. Gem for the position.

nOunces DiscOntinuance of
Protested Rule.

The deposit and guarantee rule of
the Light, Heat and Power company

abolished in September, the officers of
the company announced today.
On September q, every consumer
whose bill is paid up and whose credit

pany, will be refunded the amount Of
money he deposited as surety against
loss by the company. The amount of
money which the company holds and
which will be refunded under the rule,
was not made public. General Man
ager ohnson said today that the rule,
which brought forth a storm Of dis
approval was created at a time when
the cerdit of many consumers was
unknown. The deposits ranged from
IS up. The minimum was SO. The
deposit was based on the average six
weeks consumption.
The free installation of gas fixtures
will also be stopped. Most of this
work has been completed. Both the
rules now being abolished have been
in operation less than a year.

Two carriages were partially de-
molished yesterday at Glen Miller

bile owned by John A. Duffield, of
New Madison, o., ran into the horse
and carriage belonging to Mr.. Love
who was standing between the car
riage and the north fence of the chau-
tauqua grounds. The accident oc-
Cured when William Rooney and John
Eggemeyer attempted to back Duff

TIM QUITS county
TO WORK ON FARM
Kelly Tires of Laboring on
Roads While lnhabiting
Bayer's Headquarters.

"Infallible Tim" Kelly, infallible in
his allegiance to the army of Captain
Ski, brought sadness into the hearts
of the police today when he openly an
nounced that at a cost of freedom he
will desert the city and become a
denizen of the broad acres. He said,
Il am going to work on farm
Kelly says he has undergone
change in the last two months. he
was made to work at the county jail
When his last sentence expired he de-
termined to quit the country and reap
the harvest of his labors himself. He
said he did not touch drop of intoxi-
eating liquor until last week "since the
last time"
When he was arraigned in court to-
day he made speech to the mayor
and prosecuting attorney in which he
stated his present relation with whis
ky 81 called it all off. I'm off the
stuff for life. No more Jail for me. If
l have to dig for the county, l guest
can find something softer to dig than
roads. l am going to work on a
farm" was the speech Kelly made to
the police"

FARMERS complain
OF GARBAGE DUMPS
People in County Object to
Practice of Disp0sing of
Excess Trash.

The broken down condition Of the
crematory and the need for an entire
ly new barbage disposal plant was
again emphasized today when the
board of works received complaints
from farmers living outside the city
limits on Twenty.third street against
the dumping of garbage in that neigh
borhood.
The crematory cannot consume the
garbage and the health department or
dered 1t taken to the city limits and
dumped where farmers can secure 1T
to feed hogs and to use as fertilizer
on the soil. The farmers did not use
the garbage and a number declared
that the city has maintained null
sance which the law will compel it to
remove.
The board of works members re-
ferred the complaint to City Health
Officer Smelser who was asked to pro-
vide a new place to dump garbage
when the crematory is loaded beyond
capacity.
Members of the board said they
would recommend the adoption of the
budget for the year as 1t now stands
Every item is satisfactory and
changes will not meet the approval
of the board. A new crematory is pro-
vided for. Should council attempt to
change this fund tonight when 1t
passes on the various items, strenu.
Gus 6ght will result, Mr.. Bavis said.
Mr.. Bavis stated that the board finds
the need of a new crematory this year
greater than the need of an aerial
fire truck. The disposal Of the gar.
bage is a matter of public health
which needs immediate attention, he
! said. On the other hand, the fire de
partment has always efficiently pre-
vented any big fires in the last few
years and can continue to do so for
another year. At that time new
truck will be purchased, Mr.. Bavis
said.

CLOSE MAIN STREET
BRIDGE FOR 10 DAYS
Board of Works to Allow c.
ment to Cure Before Open
ing Street.

1t will be found necessary to close
the Main street bridge temporarily,
the board of works decided today aft
er discussing opening one side of the
new pavement on Main street before
the entire improvement is completed.
In order to leave part Of the street
open for the traffic the city would be
compelled to take the responsibility
for the wear of the paving in the flu
ture. The contractor has asked that
ten days be allowed for the cement
and brick to dry. The bridge proba-
bly, will not be closed that long.
Final assessment rolls of two i'm
provements were approved today by
the board. In the paving of North
Seventh street the citys share is
81 500 while property owners pay al
most $4,000. The cement curbs, gut.
tiers and sidewalks on North Third
street will cost the city $5O7 and the
property owners $4,000.
The board gave permission to Gath
Freeman to execute for the McConaha
company a personal bond for the gas,
oline and free air fixtures in front OF
the City garage. A new contract will
be drawn between the city and the au
tomobile company.

FRENCH ADOPT
new Plan TO
FIGHT GERMANS
Concentrate Armies i'm Effort
to Stem Invasion of Teu-
tonic Army Through
France Toward Paris.
Allied Armies to Stay Out Of
CAPITAL and Attack Enemy
Investing City, Says Ex-
pert.

PARIS Aue. 31.-Abandoning the
Nanoleonic tactics by which the
French army attempted to strike and
shatter the Germans at their weakest
point. the armies of the republic are
now concentrated along a massive
front to resist, step by step. the en-
envy as it advances upon the capital.
If by sheer weight of numbers the
British and French are forced back
upon the capital they will not take
refuge here, but will stay In the open
to harrass the Germans.
This was learned today after Minis
ter of War Millerand had returned to
the war office from the front, where
he was in conference for several hours
at headquarters on Sunday. His de-
parture from the capital was secret.
and no official statement as to the
reason for it has yet been made pub
lie, but it is known that at army head
quarters he saw not only General
Joffre, the French commander. but
! leader.
A radical change in French military
operations has gone into effect within
the last seventy-two hours. General
Joffre's policy of dividing his armies,
mer, the former war minister, has
been discarded. 1t is expected that
General Joffre will be succeeded by
General Pau, the one-armed hero Of
the Franco-Prussian war, but there is
no confirmation of rumors to this eff
feet.
At any rate, the bottling up of vast
forces in forts and centers of defense
will be averted. This was an error
committed by the French in 1870.
The French and British forces will
keep the field. Preparations have al
| ready been established to base them
in cities south of Paris. If the Ge--
I mans invest Paris they will thus be
between two fires. the garrison in the
capital and the field army south of il.
! Strategic tactics by the war office
have failed to produce results. In the
| capital city, many residents ownin g
! homes that lie beyond the forts, have
fired them in obedience to the order of
the war office. Beginning tomorrow.
dynamite squads will be sent out to
destroy the homes that are left stand
ing where they would afford shelter
for a German attack.
The papers print numerous incidents
showing that the Parisians expect the
| worst, but are prepared for it. The
Bonnet Rouge. commenting upon the
aerOplane attack, says:
"Parisians, it is the salute of the
barbarians to the city. Confident that
the salute will be returned though.
Our soldiers are brave. but the cour-
age of the men and women who have
sacrificed their all, is greater than
anything else in the world

SAVE MANS HOUSE
BUT DISREGARD LAW
City Officials Allow Builder
to Occupy Home Built
With Last Cent.

City officials stood between strict
enforcement of the law in spirit and
letter and the breaking up of a young
mans home.
Harry Hodgin, building inspector,
discovered on lot on the portion of
Randolph street recently opened be.
yOnd Fifth street, small shack in
which a young man and his two chill
dren were living. Inquiry revealed that
the young man had just completed the
building for his home at cost of 5000
No building permit was taken out and
the building is not according to the
building code.
The man told Hodgin that he had
spent his last cent to build his home
He had done this to prevent paying
rent and allowing the lot to remain
idle. The lot was purchased, he said
when he expected large sum OF
money. He explained that he was dis
appointed in this and it was only by
careful saving that he could build and
pay for the little shack in which he
and his family have just moved
Mr. Hodgin and the city officials de-
cided that inasmuch as the territory
there is unsettled now. the law will
be disregarded until there is complaint
from other property owners. The
house will stand until that time where
1t was built and then will be ordered
moved to the rear of the lot, where
it will receive the new title of barn
According to the building code, the
structure should be removed now. The
owner said a carpenter told him he
was not required to secure a permit
for the building.
