building a new bridge across the
Turtle river. The present bridge
at Pike Lake Is not in the very
best condition aud rather than
giving attention to repairing this
bridge there was sentiment in favor
OF relocating the road, thus doing
away with dangerous curve. and
building new bridge. The matter
will be taken up with the state
highway department.
A resolution was passed dis
continuing that part of Highway
No 10 at the Mercer sink hole as
pub ic highway. A road around
the sink hole was completed last
spring and is now being used. 1t
is probable that the Town of Mercer
will keep open the sink hole road
as it leads to the main part of the
village and also provides connec-
tion with the road leading north
from Mercer.
The board accepted the survey
of the proposed road from Manito-
wish to Powell and it is probable
that work on this road will be
started in the near future and con
struction carried on as long as the
weather and the available funds
will permit. A bridge across the
Manitowish River, north of Plum
kett's place, is already in place.
This road would fill long felt
need, that of direct means of travel
between Manitowish and Powell.
AS the result of action by the
board new system of taking care
of prisoners will be inaugurated
when the next sheriff takes office.
Heretofore the sheriff has been
paid lump sum of $4,000 per year
for feeding and caring for county
prisoners. The board voted to
discontinue this system and in
lieu thereof enter into a contract
with the sheriff to feed prisoners
at so much per meal. The price
per meal to be paid was not decid-
ed on, this matter will be settled
when the contract is made out.
The board will not meet again
until the annual meeting in Nov
ember.
If man would only put as much
pep" in his work as he does in his
cussin', there would be more rich

I, MORE DAYS
WORK TO REACH
BURIED MINERS

Jackson is expecting the time
limit to be cut materially during
the next few days.
Last evening the rescue crew on
the 5000 foot level reached the
face of the hard rock barrier and
tore into it with their picks. They
made ten feet advance up to 11:30
0 clock last night before the drills
were called into play. This morn
ing at o clock, Lowell stated
that the first rounds of powder
were being placed for blasting.
After the shots are fired, some in
dications of the rate of progress
that can be expected on the 1890
foot level will be gained. From
the face of the rock wall the men
on this level had 142 feet of hard
stone to go through and Is foot
winze to sink, making 157 feet of
blasting and digging before reach

SCARLET FEVER AT NEWARK
WOmen's College Closed for Week
When One Case Develops

AS the result of the development of
one case of scarlet fever among the
students of the Women's College, in
the University of Delaware, the col
lege was closed Thursday. The 200
students have been sent to their homes
and the college will remain closed for
at least one week and probably ten
days. Conditions in connection with
the development of the case of scarlet
fever it was decided by DIR. Walter
Hullihen, president, other officials of
the institution and DR.. Walter H.
Steele, the attending physician, ad-
visable to close the college. Miss
Ruth Anna Russell, of Milford, a men,
Der of the junior class, is the student
i'll with the disease. She is now iso-
lated in one section of the dormitories
and is getting the best of care. While
several others have been sick with
collie, DR.. Steele states that there are
no indications of scarlet among any of
the other students at this time. After
it was learned that Miss Russell had
scarlet fever, it was decided to send
home, on the advice of DR.. Steele, %
other students who have been closely
associated with her in class room
work on Monday. In addition to these
from 40 to so students, at the request
of their parents, returned to their
homes. In view of these facts which
left the college with but little more
than half of the total enrolment,
DR.. Hulihen decided that it would
be impractical to conduct classes
under such conditions and an
nounnced that the college would be
closed starting this morning. Dean
Winifred ]. Robinson, of the Wo-
mems College, is in Chicago, at
tending an educational convention.
DR.. Hullihen made an effort to COM
municate with her by telephone but
failed to reach her. While there have
been a number of cases of typhoid
fever in town, this is the first one in
the university. There have been no
cases in Delaware College. Superin-
tendent Owens of the Newark schools,
said there were no new cases among
the school children. There have been
several new cases, however, during the
week among children not in school.

At the MOUieS
AT THE PALACE THEATRE

The charming little fapper star,
Gladys Walton, comes to the Palace
Theatre Friday and Saturday in a
brand new Universal comedy-drama
High Heels" High Heels" is a de-
hghtful story of girl who was too
rich. She couldn't adjust herself to
the world in general. She couldn't
tolerate her brothers-nor even her
father whose money bought her posi-
ton. She was just a spoiled little
society debutante Then came the
crash. Money, position, power and
sham friends all disappeared. From
fiapper, it changed her into Christine,
the woman, who understood. Opposite
the star is Frederick Vogeding, who
gives an excellent portrayal as the
young doctor. William Worthington,
the distinguished director and actor,
handles the role of the grouchy old
man next door with the finesse of the
polished actor.
Seldom-far too seldom is there a
really novel plot shown on the screen,
but one of real novelty and originality
is promised by the management of the
Palace Theatre when "The Good-Bad
Wife," adapted from the Mary Inlay
Taylor story, "The Wild Fawn"
(Which appeared in Munsey's Maga-
zine) described as a photoplay that
will reach home. "The Good-Bad
Wife" will be shown Tuesday and
Wednesday of next week.
One of the most picturesque and
gripping chapters of American from
tier history is revived on the screen
in Marshall Neilan's picture version
of Randall Parrish's stirring story,
"BOb Hampton of Placer" which
comes to the Palace Theatre next
week. Director Neilan is said to have
employed more than 1000 Indians and
soldiers to reproduce in this motion
picture General Clusters gallant last
stand against the Indian tribes of the
far west. James Kirkwood has the
title role in this story, which is one of
love and adventure, as we'll as battle
with the redmen under Sitting Bull.
Wesley Barry's smiling face and un-
counted freckles will also be seen in a
role especially created for him by Mr..
Neilan. Marjorie Daw has the chief
feminine part. The scenario for "Boh
Hampton of Placer" was prepared by
Marion Fairfax. According to adj
vance reports, the production repre-
sents the most ambitious effort yet
made by Marshall Neilan, who has tc
his credit several notable cinema sue
cesses of recent years. 1t was photo.
graphed among the scenic grandeurs
of Glacier National Park and on the
actual site of Clusters Last Stand.

TOMATO ISSUE IN SUSSEX
Gamers and Farmers are Seeking an
Agreement in Respect to Crop

After two years of dispute between
farmers and Gamers of Sussex county,
which ended in small acreage of to-
matoes last year and the plowing un-
der of hundreds of acres of tomatoes
the year before, there is at present a
sign of an amicable arrangement this
year between the two organizations.
The Gamers, with large stocks of
canned goods about sold out and the
farmers with the low prices for corn
and wheat staring them in the face,
and the need of money making crop,
are ready to get together.
Arrangements are being made for
the farmer to contract to grow a cer-
tain acreage of tomatoes, but TO be
allowed to remain free agent as to
price; the regular market price to be
paid by the Gamer with only the as
surance of sufficient acreage to war
rant the operation of his factory.
Whatever the price may be, either
high or low, the farmer is agreeing
to take that price with no previous
contract. The few Gamers who are
trying to get this plan are contracting
at 25c basket for August deliveries,
