That the bond issue will carry
by a substantial majority is the
concensus of opinion, for, with few
exceptions, there is no opposition
to paving.
Of the $22O,OOO provided in
the bond issue, $15O,O00 is to be
used to pay for paving in front
of the City Hall, and in front Of
other city property, and at street
intersections. Fifty thousand
dollars is for water improvements
and extensions, and $4,000 for
extension of sewers and sewerage
disposal.
The program, as outlined by
Mayor Harry j. Karns at meet
ing of the Chamber of Commerce
last night, is for the PAVING OF
ALMOST THE ENTIRE CITY,
the city for this purpose having
been divided into assessment dis
tricts. Morley avenue and the
section east of that thoroughfare
are one district, Grand avenue is
another, and the residential Sec
tion west Of Grand avenue is the
other.
A majority of the heavy tax
payers are in favor of paving and
it is understood that the Southern
Pacific railroad is very favorable
to the big improvement. Any
qualified elector who is taxpay-
er can vote at the bond election.

James H. Ammons came from the

cash in his forehead, which required
eight stitches by a DR.. Dobson at
Flkinto, Md, about AZ miles from
Baltimore, to sew up and then A.
Bierne Hughes, of Baltimore. later
pulled them out and made better
job of it by doing it all over again.
A. L. Morton arrived here with a
cash in his cheek, which it required
just one stitch to sew up, while W..
c. Claiborne and Richard Eggleston,
who were also occupants of that
Studebaker sedan owned by Richard
Eggleston, who was driving, escaped
unscratched. 1t seems that the con-
crete was wet and slippery and the
car skidded off the concrete to the
red clay. In trying to bring it back
again it turned over on its side and
struck a telegraph pole.
The car was injured and left in
Baltimore for repairs. Major Am
mons was out Sunday night. The
party left New York Sunday morn
ing and the accident happened about
A P. M. the same day. No other in
juries were noted and the men in
jured are rapidly improving.
