The spreading of bitulithic on the
concrete base in paving district No. /
will begin Monday morning, provided
the mixing plant, which has been on
the way for some time, arrives before
that date. This plant, the heaviest
piece Of equipment used by the paw.
ing contractors, weighs 10000 pounds
and it's transportation from Great
Falls to this place has presented no
mean problem.
To Lay Block Daily.
After the first day." said Mr.. Okes
yesterday, Eve should be able to open
up block daily. There are 12H
blocks to be finished in the present
job. Extreme cold will not affect the
spreading of the bitulithic, and we an.
ticipate no trouble. The equipment
will remain here during the winter,
and early next spring we will get busy
on the remainder of district No. l.
Hay Protects Paving.
No chances were taken with the
block of Fifth street between Broad.
way and Main which was the last piece
of concrete work undertaken by the
contractors The concrete has been
covered with canvas and with hay,
and. while it is setting more slowly
than ordinarily, it is safeguarded from
frost.
Day and Night Shift.
The company has fifty cars of rock
ahead on the track and large amount
crushed. After the mixer arrives .
day and night crew will be maintained
on the rock crusher. After finishing
up in Bismarck, about next June, Han.
lon & Okes will transfer their machin-
cry to Miles City, Mont, where they
will lay an equal amount of bitulithic.

Marvin, y. d., IN small town OF
some 800 people located In d prosper.
ous portion Of the northeastern part
OF tho state. about 200 miles directly
west OF Minneapolis. writes Herbert
]. Poppelmnn. secretary OF the Marvin
Commercial club. IN the American City.
Tho town IN not organized lfor local
reasons) and is governed by tho town.
ship organization. which has two mem.
bcrs In the county aud one In the
town.
The town obviously could not under.
take 10 carry out such proposition as
tree planting Mt the public expense.
but tho Marvin Commercial club could.
This IL a live organization which dc.
rivcs from club dues and the manage.
ment OF local dances and other public
entertainments a small annual sum
which IN used In public betterment
Last winter some OF tho members pre-.
sented the idea OF planting trees on
the streets Of the village, Tho matter
was thoroughly discussed and plans
were laid, and long before spring ar.
rived tho club had bargained for 200
ash. 200 elm and 200 box elder trees
from six TO eight feet tall. Exception.
ally low terms were quoted by the
nurseries. which were strongly In sym.
pathy with our good intentions.
Planting 600 trees Of that size IL no
small matter. Many members volun.
tcered 10 plant twenty trees each. and
Others made larger offers; but, feeling
assured that such a plan would not
work out well. we hired two able men
10 dig the holes. which were about
four feet In diameter and twenty.four
inches deep. Then we secured volun'
tcors among the men who had had ex.
pericnce In planting trees. each 10 give
q day Of his time. Other volunteer as.
sistance was also accepted.
When the trees arrived a local Arbor
day was proclaimed. Organized sounds
began the work. and by 8 o'clock Of
the second day all the trees were plant.
cd. The ladies OF the town gave the
workers good lunches IN the middle OF
the morning and the middle OF the
afternoon. no that the hard work was
made pleasant, and all enjoyed the di.
version.
Tho summer was very favorable-a
little too wet for crops, but Just right
for the new trecs-and almost every
trcc grew and fiourished. Many Of
them now measure eleven feet In
height. Tho topography Of the town
site Is rolling. and we placed the ash
and elms on the upper streets and the
box elders In the lower parts Of the
town. In tho fall the trees were prop
erly mulched with old straw. ETC.. and
there 10 every reason to anticipate q
vigorous growth in the coming sum.
mer.
OF course IN every community there
are few who win not assist In any
undertaking. Such people are known
the world over as local knockers.
There were a few Of that kind In Mar.
vim. and they almost succeeded in dis.
couraging the lukewarm workers, but
the leaders went right ahead until
even the knockers were delighted to
sec that their knocks availed nothing.
We are now making plans to lay out a
park and plant II this spring with
shade trees. This Is still larger un.
dertaking, but we believe we are big
enough for the Job.

SHERIFF HARD|E AND
HUGH ALDERMAN,
NOTED BANK BANDIT
SPENT LAST NIGHT
IN LAKFl AND

Sheriff Dan Hardie, OF Dade coun-
ty, reached here on the 1885 train
from Fort Myers last night, having
in charge Hugh Alderman. one of the
gang of bandits who robbed the
bank at Homestead, and whose excit-
ing adventures in being pursued
through the Everglades have been
'recounted in the papers for several
days past. The chase ended with
the killing of Leland Rice, the
drowning of Jim Tucker in the Ever
glades, the wounding of Chas. Rice,
who is in Jail at Fort Myers, and the
surrender of Alderman, the only
member of the band who remains un-
injured.
Alderman spent last night in the
city Jail and left, in charge of the
sheriff, on this mornings train, for
Jacksonville. He will not be taken
to Dade county at this time, feeling
being high against him and lynching
feared, on account of the killing by
the gang of three members of the
posse which were in pursuit of them.
Alderman talked freely to parties
here, telling of the division of the
money, amounting to something over
5000 for each of the four. There
were also some diamonds When Jim
Tucker attempted to cross the stream
in the Everglades, in which he was
drowned, he put his share of the loot
in his cap. and it was lost with him.
The remainder of the money was re-
covered.
The prisoner attracted consider
able attention at the passenger sta
tion this morning. He did not have
the appearance of bad" man, be-
ing rather young and harmless look
ing. He is a member Of a South
Florida family of good reputation.
