STREET WIDENING BLOCKED.
Church Street Project May Fail Be
cause Of Disagreement.

Church Street Project May Fail Be-
cause Of Disagreement
After it was understood that all ar
rangements had been made between
the city council and board Of super
visors for the widening of Church
street from Center street to First ave-
nue., it now seems probable that the
project will fail because of a disagree
ment. The supervisors have refused to
consider paying for any more than one
half of the cost, while the city council
is insisting that the county should pay
all Of the expense. There the project
stands, with neither council nor super
visors as yet willing to recede from the
position both have taken. altho the es-
timated cost of the improvement Is
only $1,000.
According to Supervisor Jones the
agreement between the city and coun-
ty was that the board of supervisors
was to pay one-half Of tie cost OF re-
paving the original width Of streets
around the court house square. In
this instance the original pavement Is
not to be disturbed, so the supervisors
thought they were doinE their share
when they offered to pay half Of the
cost of the pavement to be laid in the
parking. The city council believes that
inasmuch as the city is saving the
county, the expense Of paying for re-
paving one-half Of the original street,
the county should be willing to pay for
all the new pavement as it will cost
less than one-haf of what it would
cost to repave the street to it's present
width.

ICE CREAM FAMINE HERE.
Shortage Of Sweet Cream Cuts Supply
of Manufactured Product.

An ice cream famine struck Mar
shaIltown Sunday night, and lovers OF
the cooling refreshment were compell-
ed to do without for Sunday night
lunch.
Shortage Of sweet cream, due to the
hot weather whitening pasturage and
fly time cutting down the milk supply,
was the cause of the falling off of the
supply Of the manufactured product.
Manufacturers who had expected sup
plies of sweet cream Sunday morning
were disappointed, and the demand for
the ice cream, owing to the hot wealth
er, soon diminished the supplies. Most
drug stores managed to keep enough
for their fountain trade, but were COM
PEELED to curtail sales in quart and pint
lots for household use.
Dealers were taking orders for de-
livery today contingent upon the re-
ceipt of expected consignments OF
sweet cream.
In addition to fly time and lack OF
pasturage it is also said that farmers
who have been milking herds have sold
them for butchering owing to the lack
of pasturage and the high cost of feed.
One stock dealer reported to an ice
cream manufacturer within recent days
that he had bought an entire herd be-
cause the farmer felt he could not make
enough profit out Of the milk.

DR.. A. c. Conway and DR.. r. r
Hansen have been appointed addi-
tional examining physicians for the
local exemption board by Governor w.
H. Harding. Notice of the appoint
ments reached the chairman of the
board this forenoon. The appointees
serve as assistants to the board and
DR.. Devine, and are not themselves
members of the board.
1t seems now quite certain that the
examinations will begin next Monday
and it also appears certain that the
county's quota Of 226 will not be OBJ
tanned from 452 men.
List to Be Ready Today.
Work was begun this morning pre-
pairing the list of $50 who will be sum-
moned to appear for examination next
Monday. 1t was expected that the no.
tees would be mailed Wednesday.
County Auditor w. E. McLeland eX-
pressed confidence today that the work
necessary could be done in time so
that the examinations could be begun
Monday of next week.
"A
De called seems to show that probably
more than ASP will have to be exam
ined to procure the county's quota. OF
the first 500 cards, an even 300 had
made claim for exemption on their reg
istration cards. This leaves 200 VINO
made no claim at the time they regis
tered and it is known that some OF
them are physically unfit and will be
rejected on that account.
County Auditor McLeland expressed
the opinion that he thought it not i'm
probable that perhaps 500 or even more
may have to be examined before the
quota is secured. 1t is certain that
several in the first 200 or 800 will have
enlisted before notices of examination
reach them. Two or three have al
rady enlisted. and the enlistments this
week are expected to be the largest
of recent weeks.

CLIFFORD NOT ARRESTED.
Msinformation From Official Sources
Leads to Distortion Of Facts.


Because of transformation that came
thru official channels, the Times-Re-
publican Saturday printed statement
to the effect that William NJ. Clifford,
of this city, was under arrest and in
Jail at Nevada, charged with forgery.
This statement was not true, as was
shown today when Mr.. Clifford appeared
at the T.-R. to register a denial. He
was not placed under arrest, nor was
he in Jail, as stated.
The information to the T.-R. came
thru the Office of the clerk of courts,
where, it was explained, a misunder-
standing resulted over the long dis
lance telephone. in talking with Coun-
ty Attorney Langland, of Nevada. Mr.
Langland. today, verified Gifford's
statement that he had not been ar
rested. nor was he in Jail. The local
sheriff's office also had understood that
Clifford had been arrested at Nevada.

the $500, 10000 blanket appropriation by

New Mines Increase
Aluminium Production

Production OF bauxite. or aluminium
ore. during 1915 increased IS per cent
over the production OF 1918, according
to report of the Geological Survey.
A large part of this increase was due
to the opening Of new and old mines
in Wilkinson, Meriwether, and Sumter
counties, Georgia.
The same report. in commenting on
the fuel oil supply of the country,
mentioned the fact that 517 exhausted
oil wells in Indiana were abandoned as
useless during 1915. Seven hundred and
sixty-nine thousand and thirty-six barrels
of oil Of forty-two gallons each. valued
at $1,207,565, were shipped from the
producing wells in that State. Indiana
fields attained the maximum produc-
tion in 1904 and since then have stead
lily declined. Prices received during
1916 show a gain OF 81 per cent a bar
rel. an increase of IS per cent over
the prices of 1915.
