EMPLOY ATTORNEY TO CARRY
PROTEST BEFORE COUNCIL
Lawyer Declares City Ordinance
Keeping Drays Off Main aiul Court
fUreets U Vnju-st No Paving for
College Street.
Representing the licensed draymen
of the city. Attorney Joe Skrable ap.
peared before the city council last
night and argued against the ordi
nance which bars them from taking
a stand on Main and Court street,
declaring such a law to be an In
fringement upon their rights as citi
zens, virtually depriving them, he
said, of their means of livlihood. A
protest signed by the draymen and
many citizens was presented to the
council two weeks ago and the at
torney asked that some recognition
be given it.
In the course of his argument, Mr.
Skrable declared that the supreme
court of Texas had held a similar law
to be illegal and he declared his
opinion that, the courts of this state
would make a like decision if the mat
ter were ever brought before them.
He maintained that the presence of
the drays on the main thoroughfares
U a great convenience to the public
and does not interfere with traffic ex
cept on special occasions at which
time the police power of the city is
sufficient, re declared, to rule them
off to prevent congestion.
No ravins for College St.
Upon the recommendation of tha
street committee last night, the pro
ceedings for the paving of College
street were dropped for the time be
ing.
Sales Agent Garrow of the Warren
Constructiqn company took occasion
last night to make a correction of a
statement made last week to the ef
fect that Seattle operates a munici
pal paving plant and lays Its own
pavement at a cost of 83 cents a
square yard. He declared that dur
ing the week he had made an investl.
gation and found that Seattle only
maintains a municipal repair plant.
Engineer Lonergan of the same
company advised the council that the
Alta, Cottonwood and Webb street
pavements would be ready for accep
tance by the next meeting and asked
that the council be prepared to take
action at that time.
Must Cut Weeds.
Acting upon the suggestion of the
Civic Club, the council last night au
thorized the publication of a notice to
residents of the city requiring them
to cut down the weeds in the streets
upon which their homes abut.
A petition signed by C. K. Crans
ton and others asking for the instal
lation of an arc light on west Wil
son street was referred to the light
committee.
A petition and demand signed b
S. A. Edwards and others for a sewef
on Hight street was likewise referred
to the proper committee.
Upon the recommendation of Street
Commissioner Heathman through
Councilman Cole, an order was made
for the construction of a cement side-
walk in front of the E. D. Turner
property on West Court street, the
costs to be assessed against the prop
erty.

TRIES TO SAW HOME IV TWO.
Coloration n. Taking Divorce Decree
Too Literally, Lands ln Jail.
Denver, Colo. James W. Ponder,
who has a small truck farm near
Denver, started to carry out literally
the terms of an agreement with his
former wife, who had obtained a di
vorce, by sawing their home in two,
giving her one-half and keeping the
other himself.
As a result. Ponder Is in Jail and
will be tried on the charge of malici
ous mischief.
Ponder could not see how he could
givo his former wife half of the barn
and keep the other half himself, nor
how he could divide the horse and
wagon, but it was easy to talk half
the chickens and give the other half
to her.
Ponder tUTneTl the horse loose and
the animal ran away. He made n
bonfire and burned the wagon, tore
the barn down artd split it into kind
ling, killed the hog, dressed and bur
led, it, then started to saw the house
across the middle when Mrs. Ponder
had him arrested.
