GET PAY FOR BRIDGE WORK
Nine Concerns Get Judgments Total
ing S12,429.51,

Judgments totaling $12,429.51 were
rendered in favor of nine concerns,
several ofsthem local, which furnished
materials for the building of the new
concrete bridge over Soldier creek on
Kansas avenue, by Judge James Nc
Clure in the district court.
The Leavenworth Bridge company
contracted to build the bridge for $25, =
500. Before the work was under way
the war broke out and material prices
scared. However. the work was COM
pleted, alki1O the bridge company Dor
rowed heavily from the Leavenworth
National bank to complete the work.
A balance of $4,000 due the bridge
company, and held by the Shawnee
county commissioners, was assigned to
the Leavenworth bank by the bridge
company. The Lion Bonding COM
pany, of Lincoln. Neb.. as surety. then
brought a suit to compel the bridge
company to return the money to Shaw
nee county and have it pro-rated
among the material men.
Judge Mcclure granted this request
and the bank, to which the company
owed about $4,000. was left ''out in
the cold" Judge Mcclure held that
the material men had a prior claim to
the money.

BROTHER TO HARDING
President Tells How He First
Really Met His Chauffeur in
Lodge Room Tho He'd Been In
His Employ Seven Years.

Washington, April 27.- President
Harding recounted to an audience Of
Odd Fellows last night, assembled in
celebration of the 102nd anniversary
of the order. how a fraternal organiza-
ton once had been the means of pro-
noting the spirit of happy concord be-
tween his chauffeur and himself.
In attending a meeting of a fra
ternal orga nfzation the president re-
lated how, to his surprise, he had
found himself seated by a man who
had been in his employ for seven years
as a chauffeur. ut was the finest thing
in the world that could have hap
pened," the president continued, for
on that night we met as brothers for
the first time and ever after that he
was a better chauffeur and 1 was a
better employer"
In reminding the Odd Fellows that
there was an inclination to be over
boastful sometimes in the claims of
the world to democracy he declared:
Il speak not only for a fraternity
but for an America that practices
what she breaches"
