CHICAGO OPENS
u. S. STORE

The United States government has
opened a store in Chicago to dispose OF
surplus goods, cash and carry being
the plan.
The list of goods on sale the first
day scented an unusal combination.
There were heavy rubber artics, pur-
chased by the army for use, in the
sticky mud of France,at $2.25 pair;
reclaimed wool blankets at IS, and re-
claimed mixed blankets at $3.50.
There were corrugated iron ash cans,
manfully carried away by purchasers
at SO; camp kettles at 80 cents; humid
les of carpenter spencils at 40 cents a
dozen: long handled shovels at 81;
mechanics stocks and dies at $3.50
and $3.50 a set saddlers' thimbles
for cents each, and tomatoes at =
and IL cents can, for number 2 and
3 cans
1t did seem trifle unusual to see
purchasers filing out of the doors car
rying ash cans, bundles blankets,
long handled shoveis and struggling
with cases of tomatoes, but they did il
smilingly.

MADISON NOT
INTERESTED IN
AN INTERURBAN

Madison is not interested in the
proposition of j. E. Jones of Portage
to rejuvenate the old interurban
street car system which was to have
connected the leading cities of all
southern Wisconsin, it developed last
might, when the common council
voted to Indefinitely postpone hear
ing on the proposed franchise. The
decision came after motion to de-
lay action, submitted by Alderman
Bowling, had been lost.
The report of the street committee
was:
"The committee also reports back
the ordinance granting to the Wis
consin Interurban street railway
system a franchise license and per-
nit to- construct, operate and main
tain an urban and interurban street
railway on certain streets in the city
of Madison with the recommends
tion that it's further consideration
be indefinitely postponed
When the motion was read, Alder
man Bowling announced that Frank
l.. Gilbert, attorney for the company,
had expected to be at the meeting
but had been called out of the city.
for that reason he requested post
nonement of the vote for two weeks.
Alderman Johnson objected, declar-
ing final action had been postponed
some six weeks longer than had
been required for the council to
make up it's mind Alderman Beh-
rend suggested it would do no harm
to listen to the argument The mo-
ton was put and the nays carried.
The committee report was then adopt
ed unanimously.
