MANSLAUGHTER
IS CHARGE MADE
AGAINST W|TTER
DRIVER OF CAR THAT CAUSED
DEATH OF BALCH MUST

PAVING WORK
ON WOODWORTH
HAS STARTED
HOLMES, CRANE & BARTLING
STARTED EXCAVATING FOR
PAVING LAST WEEK.
Work VIII Last
For Some Weeks

The paving on North Woodwork
avenue has been put underway by the
firm Of Holmes, Crane q Bartling,
which was recently awarded the con-
tract by the city for the work on this
street, on West End street and or
West Downe street
A large force of workmen started
the work of excavating at the north
end Of the street, at the intersection
of East End street the latter part Of
last week, and is working south,
towards Superior street. With the
force of men at work the firm is
making rapid progress with the ex-
cavating, the entire north block be-
ing plowed-up and considerable
amount of the dirt already removed.
1t will take some time to complete
the work on this street, which has
several blocks to be paved as the en-
tire street must be excavatel, and
curb and cutters constructed before
the paving can be laid. AS soon as
a suitable amount of the excavating
work is completed, however, another
force will be started at the north
end Of the street, putting in the curb
and gutter, end then just as RAPIDLY
rs possible the paving will be laid.
Thus it is probable that before all the
excavating is done, that work of lay
ing the curb and gutter will not only
be under way, but the actual work
OF laying the paving will also be
started.
AS soon as the workmen finish the
work on this street the work will be
started on Downie and on West End
streets. Downie street is to be paw
ed west from State street to Park
avenue, distance of two blocks and
West End s:itet VIII also have about
the same amount of paving, as it will
also be laid west from State street,
for two blocks.

Harry Opens NelU
Grocery in Alma

A new grocery has ben opened in
the Fraker block on East Superior
street, which will be the first Of
Alma's grocery stores to adopt the
serve-self idea for its customers,
which has been gaining rapid
headway in the larger cities of the
country during the immediate past
few years.
The new store will be under the
ownership of Carl Harry, who for the
greater part of the time during the
past several years, has been connect
ed with Alma groceries, and who is
we'll versed in the business.
The store in the Fraker block in
which the new place is located, has
been completely redecorated, and new
furnishings and shelving placed
throughout the entire store. In
keeping with the new furnishings
and fixtures is an entire new line
of groceries, all of which combine to
give the place neat and attractive
appearance.

NEW TRUCKS HERE

During the past few days Thomp-
sons garage, local agents for Re-
public Trucks, have delivered Repub-
lies to two live Alma business houses.
One of these delivered TO the
Model Bakery Tuesday, is a special
ly designed body on a Rapid Transit
chassis, being designed to allow for
a maxium load of baked goods on a
single trip. The large body is so de-
signed that three separate places are
provided for carrying bread shelving
dividing the body into three parts
and thus doing away with the neces-
sity of piling the loaves one on the
other. Movable cross-pieces are so
arranged that they may be easily
moved as the bread is taken from
the shelves, thus keeping the loaves
that are left from bouncing around,
and jamming. A number of small
compartments are also provided in
front for carrying pies, cookies, etc.
The entire body is finished in Il
cream color, with black trimmings,
with each side Of the body carrying
the usual Model Bakery inscription.
The other truck delivered the first
of the week was a Model b 10, 2lR
ton job for The Home Lumber &
Fuel Company to be used in the de-
livery of lumber.

near this city was arrested last Sal
urcay morning, and brought int d,
justice court before Joseph l.. Bigger.

alleged that on the previous Thursday

ment that arose, it is said that Whit
craft attacked the old man, blacking
both Of his eyes and otherwise injur-
ing him.
When Whitcraft appeared before
Justice Bigerstaff he entered q plea
of guilty and the case was then con-
tinued over until Monday, June IL, at

Alma, when it was an ordinary thing
TO see 4 drunk on the streets, is to be
revised to meet present day condi-
tiors, and the drunk who is found
once in a while by the officers will
face much greater difficulties than
in the past, as the amendment to the
old ordinance will carry heavy
penalty if the court shold see fit to
impose the limit.
The amendment for the ordinance
drawn up by William A. Bahlke, was
filed at the commission meeting
Tuesday evening, and will be placed
on its first reading next Tuesday
evening, and will come into force
just as rapidly as the proper legal
steps can be taken.
The old ordinance called for a fine
of ur to $4,000 in such cases, and
the amendment to the ordinance will
provide for fine of up to $4,000 in
place Of the $4,000
The old ordinance also provides for
a Jail sentence Of so days, and this
is to be done away with by the
amendment which will call for a Jail
sentence of up to 80 days.
