CITY DADS FROWN
OVER ROAD DELAY
CEMETERY HARD HIGHWAY
MAKES KNOTTY PROBLEM.
OTHER COUNCIL NOTES.

The concrete road to the cemetery
Gently considerable printers ink was
used to no avail, remains unfinished
and a sorry piece of No-Man's land
so far as traffic is concerned.
The matter of delay came up at the
council meeting Monday night the con-
tractors, G. E. Rich & Co., presenting
their reasons for not having the road
completed as agreed upon. Delays in
material and other causes were pre-
scented. The council confessed it to
be knOtty problem and left it to the
public works committee to unravel to-
day.
The claim of Claude & Stark, Mad
ison architects, for $4,000 for plan !;
ETC., on the new city hall, still an air
castle, was carried over to the next
meeting.
John Peterson asked for and re
ceiyed a raise to $120 month for his
three-fold duties as police chief
street commissioner and water works
superintendent. Frank Behnke was
allowed 80 cents an hour for digging
sewer and L. Marburger's request for
raise was dropped as the latter be-
came irate and resigned.
Aid. Orchard reported on band mat
tiers stating that he was in correspon-
dence with various leaders who aspir-
ed to put Lancaster among the lead
ers in a musical way. The issue is
still in allegiance.

AT PLATTEVILLE DANCE

Platteville, Wis, July ga disturb
ance at the dance held in connection
with the Fourth of July celebration
ended in near riot last evening. Mrs
Laverne Johns came to the hall in
search of her husband but was not
treated as gently as might be expect
ed, when she requested her spouse to
come home. Friends of Mrs. Johns
resented the way she was handled and
in defending her a general fight fol-
lowed. Johns left the hall but later
returned and accused man from
Mineral Point of having assaulted
him. The innocent party was quite
badly beaten before help reached him.
Mr.. Tracy, who was in charge. called
the police and Mr.. Johns and COM
panion were ordered from the hall.
The police authorities are working on
the case and prosecutions are likely to
follow.

BUMPER 1920 CROPS
FOR GRANT COUNTY
PROSPECTS AT. THIS TIME
HIGHEST IN YEARS-ALL
CROPS LOOKING GOOD.

From all indications Grant county
crops this year will ring the bell for
plentitude and excellence. During
the last month nature has been more
than kind with ample rainfall and
warmth this having made up for dis
couraging May
The hay cutting is now in progress
with excellent yields. Some farmers
acre of timothy, alsike and clover
mixed. Following the cuttings vol
unteer crops have come up and bid
fair to afford a second cutting.
The corn is also very good. Some
stands on new ground are actually
five or six feet high at present. Much
of it is waist high and fair average
is above the time-honored knee
high by the fourth" although there
are always some backward fields.
Potatoes look splendid and the
prospect for the potato profiteers next
fall is decidedly dismal Many are
getting new potatoes right now and
the fields are in excellent shape for
mammoth crop.
Oats this year are above the aver
age. The plants are long and sturdy
with heavy well-filled heads. Where
wheat and oats have been mixed with
a proportion of ITO wheat and $40
oats the improvement is marked It is
safe to predict an excellent crop of
oats, wheat and other small grain.
Fruit has been doing well altho the
sugar shortage has made canning
rather a problem. But sweet stuff is
promised in plenty of good sorghum
and the honey crop is bound to be big
despite the dismal cracking of the ex-
perts earlier in the season. The bees
have been busy, the blooms are plen-
tiful and the Herald crop expert looks
for plenty of. honey.

A peculiar accident is reported
from Soldiers Grove last week. A
Mr. Dunbar was working at the Sew
erson residence and had left his g.
year-old son in a big truck near 9
high embankment. The child releas-
ed the brake and the heavy machine
ran down the bank, crashed into John
Sanger's old blacksmith shop and
moved it off the foundation. The
truck was little damaged, and the
child uninjured.-Vi roqua Censor.
Commercial fishermen along the
river are complaining of poor catches
In recent years. They say that where
years ago they could pull out net
full lof fish in one dip that now it
takes numerous hauls. The big dam
at Keokuk is blamed by many for the
poor showing of fish in the upper riv-
er-this and high water enticing the
fish into sloughs and creeks and
away from the channel.
Geo. Harris and Chas Weber, Mad
ison youths, were held Thursday by
the Dubuque police who detected them
in an effort to sell a Ford car that
answers the description of a stolen
GAINESVILLE vehicle.
Thomas Convey ST., of Dodgeville,
had a Ford car stolen from his ga
rage Monday of last week.

NEW BATHING POOL.

The park board has arranged with
the city to haul gravel for new bath
ing pool in Schreiner park The pool
will have depth of to Z feet and a
dimension of about 40x75. 1t will not
take long to complete it after the
gravel is ready for concrete work. The
board intends to dam the spring
raising the water foot and running
it to the pool. This will furnish
plenty of pure water for bathing. 1t
will also be cold enough to furnish

will be erected for public convenience

SCHOOL MEETING HELD
OVER TO FRIDAY NIGHT.

BY unanimous vote the annual
school meeting for it. Dist. 8, Lancas-
ter, was adjourned to Friday evening
at s p. m. The regular meeting was
held Tuesday night but a misunder-

not exceed thirty people and it is
hoped that on Friday a much larger
number will be present as important
matters including large budget will
come up for consideration.

Welsh and Peterson Families
Celebrate 4th at Schreiner Park.

Welsh and Peterson Families
Celebrate 4th at Schreiner Park.
In obedience to a suggestion made
by Mrs. L. E. Wilkinson of Mt. Hope,
eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
Peterson of this city, happy and
congenial crowd gathered last Sun
day at Schreiner Park to celebrate
the time-honored day of Independence
in a spirit that was altogether COM
mendable. They came in cars from
Mt. Hope, Potosi, Flora, Beetown and
Bloomington as we'll as some from
the city. The table at the park was
covered with Immaculate linen and a
spread fit for a connaseur was dis
played not only for the qualification
Of the sense of sight but more partic-
ularly for the satisfaction of the in
ner man and if it be true that the
way to mans heart is through his
stomach, surely those ladies' who
provided for this occasion found their
way to the hearts of all the men there.
There was not only an over-abun-
dance of all the good things to eat but
there was also the fragrant cup that
cheers but does not inebriate, togeth
er with ice cream as abundantly as
the food. There was also a box of
cigars for the men and c1ndy and gum
for the ladies and kiddies. 1t was
just fine and all enjoyed it so much.
There was represented three genera
tiOns of the above mentioned families

Park is an ideal place for a picnic
and recreation ground, but there are
few cOnveniences lacking that
would not cost much but add mater
tally to the comfort of those who
patronize the place. There should be
a few more tables placed at different
places, there also ought to be some
lawn swings for the little folks to en-
joy themselves with besides other lit
tie cOnVeniences which will readily
suggest themselves to anyone spend
ing half day in the lovely spot.
