Miles or CITY Streets
NEED IMPROVING

Members OF City Council. who had
set aside last night as the time to
discuss the paving Of streets, were
surprised. when a list embracing 343
blocks was presented for paving It
vas estimated that the cost Of such
work would be close to $780, 900.
After much discussion, It was de-
oided to refer the list TO the Street
and Sewer Department for that de-
partment to prepare estimates as to
the cost. It was the opinion Of many
of the Councilmen that the lists OF
streets needing repair in each ward
would have to be reduced before any
action could be taken by the city.
II is thought that Council at its
meeting next week will hear a re-
port from the Street and Sewer De-
partment on the cost and it will then
Dc decided whether to ask for bond
issue to meet the expense OF the work.

Attractions at The Theatres

Lawrence aud Edwards, is particularly
interesting, while the stage setting and
equipment are appropriate. One OF the
members of the team is sturdy man
of military bearing. attired in the uni
form of a United States army officer,
while the other rs aged and wears the
uniform of veteran. Both are coined
ians and the parts they assume in the
little military drama iit them well. IL
develops at the close Of the dialogue,
that the old soldier, who is a veteran OF
the Civil War, once had personal en-
counter with the father of the young
officer, who was in the Southern army,
and it is arranged that the two old men
shall have another meeting in Richmond
The dialogue is quito entertaining.

Mayors Proclamation

Supplemental to the proclamation
published by Mayor Chittenden, this is
notice that there will be four day
cleanup campaign commencing We'd
nesday, April 18th, and continuing
throughout the week. 1t is the pur-
pose to have the cleanup squad pene-
trate every nook and corner of our
City, note the conditions and report the
result to the Mayor. I therefore call
upon every citizen to give the author
tiles such aid and assistance as is with
in their power, clean up yonr premises
and prevail upon your neighbor to do
likewise. All refuse, except manure,
to be deposited in the alley-ways where
it will be gathered and carried away by
the teams provided. Let as therefore
all unite in one grand cleanup effort
and make Hays City what it should be,
the one bright spot in Kansas.
H. W. DISTANT, Mayor.
If the owner of those lots where the
Objectionable cellar is located hash t
civic pride enough to clean up the
premises the health officer should take
the matter in hand. Last yerr the
cellar was not only filed with rubbish
but grass and sunfowers grow there as
high as your head. There are one or
two cellar holes IN the city nearly as
bad, that should be looked after as
well.
