Cotton has been greatly damaged
bv the boil weevil and army cotton
worm. according to County udge Joe
Asher, after a trip to Pine Bluff rout-
ed over the new dollarway pike in
Jefferson county.
1.-THE boil weevi1 has made in
roads on practically every field |
saw. and many stands of cotton are
almost leafless from the disastrous
attacks made by the army worms.
Corn is looking fine, the late rains
having greatly assisted in repairing
damage wrought by the drouth in the
earlier part of the season. Pastures
look green and good crops of hay
should result.
Ten miles of the dollarWay pike
are finished, while eighteen miles of
the concrete base have been laid. The
road. or its concrete base, is nine
feet wide This apparently is too
narrow. but shoulders of gravel have
been put on each side of the concrete,
affording a road from fifteen to eight
cen feet wide. The concrete is top
ped with tarva. and it gives finish
as smooth as an asphalt street.
Three gangs of men are working
on the road. and every possible effort
is being made to hurry the construc-
ton. When completed it will be
twenty-five miles long and will be
connected with pike at the Jefferson
Saline county line. The pike runs
through one corner Of Saline county
to Pulaski and then into Little Rock.
Because of construction work on
the highway automobile travel to
Pine Bluff over it at present is haz-
ardous. In a few weeks, however, il
will be more accessible, and will be a
great road for automobilists.
The road is being built under con-
tracts let by County Judge c. NJ. Phil

To CONSIDER NEW
BUILDING LAW
Boards of Works and Safety to
Hold Joint Meeting Next
Thursday When Collapse
Verdict May be Announced.

Joint meeting OF the board of pub
lie works and board Of public safety
with Mayor Keller and members of
the council has been scheduled for
1880 o'clock next Thursday evening,
TO consider the necessities and plans
for a new building ordinance for
South Bend. including provision for
building inspector.
The matter was taken up by both
boards at their meetings Friday, on
suggestion of the mayor, ana the
above date agreed upon 1t was de-
cided By Mayor Keller Saturday
morning that the council be invited
to the deliberations and City Clerk
Rostiser was notified to deliver the
notice.
1t is thought probable that the re-
port of the Goetz commission, APP
pointed TO investigate the collapse of
the ShiveIy-H building will have
been made by that time and City
Atty. Scebirt has under consideration
a partially prepared ordinance. which
completed, with some changes, may
be the one introduced.
The ordinance has been in course
of preparation by a committee of local
architests under the direction Of the
Chamber of Commerce since Mayor
Keller was president of that body.
1t is a monster affair, filling upwards
TO 1000 typewriter pages, and yet
far from complete. Reduced TO print
the completed ordinance would fill a
book about the size of the city's an
nual reports.
Believe Law Necessary.
Both the board of works and board
Of safety have in an unofficial way
decided that some such ordinance is
necessary, but want the advise OF
the council, which must make the law
finally. to participate in the delibera-
uons, believing II will eXpediate mat
ters.
1t is not to be a star chamber
affair either. Mayor Keller has ex-
tended an invitation TO the press to
attend.
The investigating committee which
conducted the probe in the effort to
determine the responsibility for the
collapse of the Shively-Honer build
ing, has completed its work OF taking
testimony. The finding. however. will
not be made until after the debris
has been entirely removed and the
excavation cleared. The commission
intends 10 hold the investigation open
until every possible source OF in
formation has been tapped. 1t was
thought that additional information

The arrest of John Hampton of De-

a charge OF accosting "a South Bend
girl on the street a few nights ago,
was effected through a ruse originated
by the girl.
Hampton gave bond for his appear
ance in police court Saturday, but
failed TO appear. The case was con-
tinued until Monday when Judge
Warner said he would forfeit the bond
IL Hampton does not appear.
According TO the girl who accuses
Hampton, the latter accosted her on
the street Wednesday evening and tried
to persuade her TO attend a theater
with him. She refused but promised
to meet him on the following evening.
In the meantime the girl arranged
with the police TO have an officer near
the meeting place and in this manner
Hampton was arrested. Eli SeebiTt,
city attorney, appears in the case
since the charge is an alleged violation
of the city ordinance regulating
"mashing" and s,reet walking.
