Mr.. Fixit-Please to try to have
repairs made to Southeastern ave-
nue., between State avenue and Ru-
raj street. The street is very rough.
A. L. E.
City Engineer A. H. Moore has or
dered investigation of this complaint at
once.
Mr.. Fixit-T'here are three vacant
lots on Chester street, between
Twenty-sixth and Twenty eighth
streets, and one on School street,
just north of Twenty-sixth street,
which are covered with weeds.
P. H. M.
Orders for cutting these weeds have
been issued by a health board inspector.
Mr.. Fixit-During the late after
noon and early evening children
congregate in the 1900 block North
Drexel avenue and play. They hide
behind parked automobiles and run
back and forth across the street,
narrowly escaping death frequently.
The parents of these children ap-
parently are unaware of the danger
Of such play. E. l.. D.
This letter has been forwarded to
Police Chief Michael Morrissey for in
vestigation.
Mr.. Fixit-A couple in Drexel
Gardens keep three milk cows, four
calves, about 200 chickens, a dozen
geese on a few lots, annoying the
neighbors. Can anything be done
about this? F. P.
health board inspector who in
vestigated this complaint reports that
the health department can not act in
this case because the lots referred to
are outside the city limits.

Wiped Out by Birds.
By United Press
FIT. COLLINS, Colo, Sept. 49,
Colorado farmers, who have battled
through the summer against an
overwhelming plague of grasshop-
pers, had a new ally today in huge
swarms Of seagulls, which settled
down out of nowhere in the fields
of this vicinity.
The birds. assumed to be from
the region of Salt Lake City. ar
rived in such large focks that they
covered the fields in some cases.
Their arrival recalled the his
torical cricket plague of 1849 at Salt
Lake City, when seagulls similarly
arrived on the scene to eliminate
the pests. The Mormons saw in
their coming miracle, and erected
statue which stands near the great
Mormon tabernacle at Salt Lake
City, dedicated to the birds.

VEHLING IN ANSWER
TO DAMAGE ACTION
Coroner Asks $4,000 Complaint Be
Made Specific.


Made Specific.
Answer to a $4,000 damage suit
against Coroner Fred w. Vehling
was filed today in superior court
three by Vehlin's attorney, Fred E.
Barrett.
Barrett filed a motion to make
the complaint more specific, declar-
ing it does not show Vehling had
possession of property belonging to
John Snyder, who died at the home
of James Holland.
Damages were asked, the suit al
legged, because the coroner wrong
fully and illegally seized the prop
erty. Vehling is involved in another
suit with Holland in circuit court,
where a suit for impeachment of
the coroner is pending as a result
of Snyder'S death.
