Of the day. Tamada was juggling the
food for three messes, and he was do

who has every detail well mapped out
and is moving on schedule. The boy
Sandy was not there. probably en-
gagged in laying the table for the hunt

no person qualified to pass on the

THE inexorable demands of the

The w. r. & e. must be sold to

The inevitable impression made
by a perusal Of the reports of the

Capital Traction Company is in the
street railway business. making
careful expenditures year by year
to take care of and expand its busi-
ness and to maintain its road and

CONTRACT FOR PIKE
Unless Contractor Miller Makes
Good Bond BY Tuesday Next
Highest Will Get 1t

The Lexington pike is likely to
be rebuilt of Kentucky rock as
phalt, after all.
State Highway Engineer Joe S.
Boggs, her over Sunday at his
home, said that Contractor Mill
er, of Indiana, had as yet been
unable to make good bond for
the construction of the roadway
with concrete. Unless Miller is
able to make the bond required
by Tuesday. September 9th. Mr.
Boggs will let the contract for
the work to the next highest bid
der, a contracting firm that pro-
poses to use Kentucky rock as
phalt on the job.
Rurnors became rife soon after
the letting of the contract two
weeks ago that the Miller con-
Germ would not be able to give a
satisfactory bond. The amount
required is $243.OO. the figure at
whic the contract is let. This
figure was $500 under the next
lowest bid to which the contract
will go in the event Miller does
not make his bond.
Mr.. Boggs said that it seemed
very probable that Miller was go
ing to forfeit his contract. Mil
ler's bid was some several thous-
and dollars under the closest es-
innate that government engineers
made of the possible cost of the
work.

IRELAND AGAIN
REJECTS PEACE OFFER
De Valera Says Full Dominion
Status Is Not Included In
Lloyd-George's Plan

London, Sept. 5-The reply Of
the Irish Republican Parliament
to Prime Minister David Lloyd
Georges latest communication
rejects the British Governments S
proposals for settlement of the
Irish question on the ground that
the yare not based on d dominion
status for ireland. 1t leaves tie
way open for further investisa-
tlons, however, by offering at
once to appoint plenipotentiaries
on the basis Of the principle OF
government by consent Of the
governed.
The reply, signed by E.amonn
De Valera, which was made pub
lie in London and Dublin stimuli
taneously today, had been preced-
ed i'll the British and Irish press
by a number Of apparently in
spired statements that it would
create a very grave situation. Pc
rusal of the reply, however, af-
fords little reason to fear imnlc-
diate breakdown of the negotia-
tiOnS. unless the Cabinet Council.
meeting Wednesday to consider
it, should decide to impose d time
limit within which Ireland must
accept or reject the governments
proposals.
The reply shows that Mr.. PC
Valera and the Daily Elreann
have not receded i'll the slightest
from the position formerly adopt
ed. 1t emphasizes that the Brit
ish Governments proposals are
not an invitation to enter into d
free and willing partnership with
the nations Of the British COM
monwealth. but that on the CON
trary the conditions Mr.. Lloyd
George seeks to impose would
divide Ireland into two artificial
and naturally destructive states.
1t insists that the plenipoten-
tar1eS must center a conference
untrammeled by any conditions.
but with that proviso, says that
the Dali Elreann is ready to ap-
point plenipotentaries.

GIRL AWAKENED BY
BURGLAR IN ROOM

Stanford, Ky, Sept. 5-The pc
culiar sensation that one has
when one awakens and finds a
burglar calmly exploring the
room for loot, was experienced
by Miss Lyles Cooper. daughter
of the late County Clerk c. B.
Cooper. between one and two
o'clock Monday morning. The
intruder had fashlight and was
methodically ransacking h e +
trunk, dresser and other places,
evidently hunting money or jew
|clry.
Miss Cooper pretended sleep
until she thought the man was
about to approach her bed, when
she screamed for her sister across
the hall. The latter called out of
a window to neighbors. Rev. J.
{. McClary, next door, got out
his trusty .45-preachers do own
guns sometimes-and the welkin
rang as he peppered away at the
burglar, who by this time. was
making hurried getaway. Blood
hounds were sent for in an effort
to trail the man. Miss Cooper
could not say whether he was
white or negro.
1t was found that the intruder
had wired the knob OF the door
to her mother room to a banis
ter TO prevent Mrs. Cooper COM
ing to her daughters rescue. En-
trance seemed to have been eff
lected through the front door.
the screen of which was found
torn off.

Sales In Lincoln

Land sales are picking up in

Howard Alexander who bought

his landed possessions Wednes-
day, when he bought the II acres
sold by Hughes & McCarty for
Ewalt Givens at $134.V and Law
son Bros farm of 81 IL acres at
$15O.25. This gives Mr.. AleNan-
der a splendid boundary and one
of the best and handsomest coun-
try homes i'll the county. Mon

bidder on the John Zuber farm
near Ottenheim and he got the
place of 90 acres for $500, The
