nursing a bruised hip and other

BlaCkbrdS Steal
HonorS From Robins

1t is commonly believed in the north
ern ATTITUDES that the saucy robin is
the welcome harbinger of spring, but
that is not always true here. 1t appears
that the robin has lost the record this
year at least, and the feathered cousin
to take the distinction away from him
is red-headed blackbird.
E. A. Rice called up Saturday and
said his blackbird had returned that
day from his winters vacation in some
favored spot in the southland This
red-headed tenant of the Rice farm
comes back every spring but he is a
little early this year, his arrival date
generally being about March l. AS a
usual thing he comes back alone, but
this year he brought family of three
with him. And so the seasons business
of getting settled, picking habitation
and a mate and rearing family. of
young uns is already under way.

May Make Housing
Survey Of Lincoln County

Relief Administrator Church has re-
ceived notice of approval of a project
for the painting of airplane symbols
on the roof of the Masonic hall in
Eureka. An arrow pointing north will
be painted on the roof and two men
will probably be employed
During the week Mr. Church re-
ceived application blanks from the
Helena office to be signed, providing
for housing survey of Lincoln county.
This would give employment to four
men and would be a careful survey
of the entire county in regard to need
for repair of houses and building of
new ones This information to be used
in the housing campaign under way
over the nation, for the purpose of Civ
ing an impetus to the building industry
and providing better homes. There is
nothing definite regarding this survey
at present, but final approval is prob
ably awaiting needed legislation by the
congress.
Mr.. Church also reports that relief
funds are running very low. The delay
in enacting relief Legislation in Wash
ington is responsible for the scarcity of
funds. 1t has been necessary to make
substantial reduction locally in the
relief being extended to individuals.

Street Improvement
To Be Full Width

Letters and blue prints received by
the city from state highway officials
give definitely the nature of the i'm
provement that is to be made this
spring on Mineral avenue by Contract
or O'Connor. The avenue is to be i'm
proved by grading and applying a
gravel and oil mixture the entire dis
lance from the railroad to Ninth street.
From the railroad to the south line of
Boulevard avenue, the improvement
will be the full width of the street
from curb to curb, a distance of 50
feet. From the south line of Boulevard
avenue to Ninth street. the gravel and
oil mixture is to cover width of 20
feet.
There has been some misunder-
standing regarding the nature of the
improvement, but this information is
official and should settle all such mis-
understandings.

City Daily Makes Big Mistake
Reporting Lincoln County Debt

on December 81 it had no bonded in
debtedness whatever So it can be seen
that the statement of the Record
Herald was long way from the truth.
To correct the erroneous impression,
L. S. WEIGH secured statement of the
Indebtedness of the county on Decem-
Der 81 and wired a correction to the
Record Herald That newspaper quoted
Mr.. WEIGH and published a correction
in later issue.
The figures obtained by Mr.. Welch
from County Treasurer Bessey show
that Lincoln county had no bonded in
debtedness on December 81. On that
date there were warrants outstanding
Of $9,33606 and cash on hand to cover
those warrants of $12,28758, leaving a
net cash balance on hand on December
81, 1884, of $2,95152
There are few counties in the state
in as good financial condition as Lin
coin county 1t was unfortunate to have
such an error made by one of the fore
most newspapers of the state, especially
at time when the county is endeavor-
ing to float bond issue for a new
court house
