PAVING
BIDS.ARE
OPENED

Bids for the paving that is to be
done this coming season were opened
this morning at a session of the board
of city commissioners and it is now
assured that the people of Fargo are
going to get their paving cheaper
than for a number of years. The bids
are considerably lower for the same
kinds of paving than the contract was
set for in 1897.
The contracts of course will not be
let until after the expiration of five
days as the people of each district
have that time in which to decide
from the bids what kind of paving
they desire. For this reason the com
missioners adjourned to April IA
when they will meet again and the
contracts will be let.
There were three bidders on all
pieces of work advertised for. These
were S. Birch, James Kennedy, both
contractors of this city, and the Cen
eral Construction Co, of Minnca-
polls.
The bids on the pavement of Broad
way from the Great Northern tracks
to the Northern Pacific tracks were
as follows:
Second column, Birch bid.
Third column, Kennedy's bid.
Fourth column, General Construction
Co., bid.

would supplement his report to Sec

statement, so that Mr. Garrison would

situation with reference to the polio

As to the question of the location
OF permanent barracks in tho canal
zone, General Wood said the situation
had been carefully considered, but tha:
he was not prepared as yet to maks
his conclusions public. His report re-
garding the barracks will be drawn up
on the way to New Orleans. The
making of the military of the canal a

CHOICE

The farm boy wants change of
life, he seeks the city's noise and
sights. He deems his lot to full of
strife, too long the days, too short
the nights. He wants to be a city
guy, with less of work and more of
play, and watch the swell dressed
4hrongs go by and blow a wad of
dough each day.
The city lad looks country-wise;
he's tired of the jostling crowd, the
din and blare and smoky skies and
hunting for a job about. He wants
to be where horses browse and but
terf1ies and tadpoles swim, where
there are lots of pigs and cows and
each one is a friend to HIM.
Yet, by and by, each feels the loss
of homelike ties that lure one back

Every time key opened his word

He was short and thin. but it was a
deceptive thinness. His capacity for
storing away free liquids was awe
inspiring and sin.

from the neck to the ankles, with en-
ergency bulkheads in both feet.
His nose was shaped like quarter
to six o'clock. 1t began in the middle
and rushed both ways as hard as it
could. One end of it ducked into his
forehead and never did come out.
His interior was sponge lined, and
when the bartenders began to send
them in fast, Ikey would lower an
asbestos curtain to keep the fumes
away from his brain.
Nobody ever saw Ikey at high tide.
There was surely something wrong
with keys switchboard, because he
could wrap his system around more
Indian laughing juice without getting
lit up than any other man in the
world.
But key was the compliments OF
the season, all right, all right.
Ikey had spent most of his life be-
ing a bookmaker, and when the racing
game went out of fashion he sat down
and tried to think what else he could
do. Nothing occurred to him until one
day he discovered that he could push
his feet around in time to music; so
he became a dancing instructor and
could clean up $1,000 per day if the
bartender didn't beckon too hard.

Wastino Time.

Friction always takes time. An
object rolling down smooth hin
goes much faster than when it bumps
along over stones and cobbles. A
courteous remark will carry you quick
er to the bargain than querulous bick-
erings over prices which the sales
woman cannot control. When you
allow the saleswoman to bring out
dozens of $40 and $50 suits when you
know you will not pay cent over SIS
you are wasting your own time and
hers. When you chat with an acquain-
tance at the glove counter and ignore
the girls "Do you wish eight or twelve

and depriving the girl of another GUS

His Cruel Treatment.

Some time since pretty young
wife brought suit against her husband
for divorce on the ground of cruelty,
and when the case was called the fair
petitioner was put on the witness
stand.
"You say on your petition. madam"
interrupted the judge at one interval.
that your husband treated you with
great cruelty?"
"Yes. sir" was the soft and meek
rejoinder of the witness. ".he was
cruel to me very often"
I'm what particular way?" asked
the judge. Il want to hear some spe-
cific cases."
I'm many ways" answered the Pc
titioner. "One of the worst things he
used to do was to say things to me
on the telephone, and then hang up
the receiver before l could answer
back"
