Chip has asked for another fight
He may get it sometime. If he gets
it in a hurry, Mccoy may regret 1t.
Chip looks to have the goods. He
had several matches on. but he prob
ably lost them. He was to fight Bob
Maha in Boston. Mccoy has agreed
to take his place. The Mcmahon
brothers had him signed up to meet
Mike Gibbons at the Empire, and he
had a date with Battling Levinsky
at Philadelphia. Chip will have to
make a new start and it will take
him some time to live down the de-
feat of last night. AS to Mccoy, he
comes from n city where champions
have dwelt before 1t was in Brook
lyn where Terry McGovern, Jack
Dempsey and Jack McAuliffe lived.
Maybe there is something good left
in that old town, and maybe they
have another champion over there.

'SOuEN TELLS Of
n. Y. CITY STORM
MINOT MERCHANT SAYS THE
STORM COST NEW YORK $1,000
ooo-I. w. WIS ADDED TO THE
TROUBLE.

Marvin Solien, manager Of the New
York stare, has returned from three
weeks stay in the east where he
bought merchandise for the spring and
summer trade. Mr.. Solien was in New
York City most Of the time and re-
ports one of the worst storms he has
ever seen. Eighteen inches Of snow
fell in very short time. Street car
traffic was tied up, and no vehicles
could move for several days. Owing
to the I. w. w. troubleas, not nearly
enough men could be secured to re-
move the snow. This one snow alone
cost the city of New York $4,000, 900.
Mr.. Solien visited the church which
the l. w. WIS entered and they were
in complete control, no one attempting
to remove them from the edifice.

PAvEMENTS THAT BLOW UP
Wood-Block Construction Frequently
Badly Damaged by Lons-con-
tinued Soaking Rain.

In the laying of wood-block paving
there is perhaps nothing which gives
the engineer more concern than the
chance that the paving may some
day 'blow up" 1t is easily possible
by proper specifications and inspec-
tion to secure good material and to
have it well laid. The trouble from
"bleeding," which frequently occurs,
can be taken care of by covering the
pavement with sand or other absorb
ents. Systematic application of grit
to the pavement in slippery weather
will remove the objections of team
sters. 1t is rather pulling to an
engineer, however, to know what to
do to prevent the rising of mounds
in the street looking like an incipi-
ent volcano, the result of some long
continued, soaking rain by which
the blocks have become thoroughly
saturated.
A blow-up from expansion is most
apt to occur when rain follows a long
period Of extremely dry and hot
weather, during which the blocks be-
come thoroughly dried out and sand
and dirt fill the joints, 50 that when
the pavement is again expanded by
moisture the slack has been taken
up, so to speak. Systematic sprin-
king of wood-block paved streets
during dry weather might be an i'm
portant safeguard in preventing
trouble when the drought is broken.

opens in February, however, and the
Commission is anxious to raise fund

big work before it. Early response
by the purchase of the Kentucky

Exposition Commission of Ken.
lucky, By Sterling L. Mar.
shall, Secretary.

John w. Holland. Chairman OF the
Panama Pacific Exposition Commits
sion of Kentucky. has received word
from San francisco that arrange.
ments have been closed for better
site for the Kentucky building at
the Panama-P lcific Exposition than
that originally allotted to the Com
mission.
The site originally had no bay
view. The new site commands an
excellent marine view of San Fran
cisco Bay. On account Of the ex-
ceedin9ly interesting water exhibits
o. ell kinds this will be invaluable.
Following general suggestions of
Kenneth Mcdonald, of San Francis
co. formerly a member Of the firm of
Med nsld & Dodd. architects, of
Louisville. the kentucky building
will have a colonial facade carried
out in the colors of the Exposition
proper. urdeniably one of the most
attractive features of the Exposition.
M yet of the first floor will be de-
voted to a largeiand beautifully de.
sig ed interior suggesting the chiv-
alry and refinement of the State. 1t
VII he a place of exhibit for old
documents. pictures and historical
records and objects. 1t may also be
used as an assembly room and bali
ROOM.
Ample porticos will be provide
over ooking the Exposition on one
side and the bay on the other. To
carry out the X n lucky effect, negro
"mammies" will be in charge.
For Kentuckians who wish to
make larger contribution 10 the
kentucky building and exhibit fun /
than the purchase of the bronze
souvenir originally prepared, the
Exposition Commission of Kentucky
has arranged for liver souvenirs,
These bear the State and Exposition
seals, as do the brorze fobs and
Docke t-pieces that are being offered
by the Commission.
A German Silver souvenir will be
offered at So and one sterling silver
at $40. The commission was led to
prepare the more expensive souve-
Mrs by the fact that large number
of well-to-do citizens had shown a
disposition to make larger contri-
button than 81, which was fixed as
the sale price of the bronze souve-
Mrs. Some of these accomplished
this by buying a large number of the
bronze souvenirs and giving them to
employees and friends.
