mwvwmVM t The- matter was presented at the
council meeting Monday night when
Mayor Rice asked if the councilmen
were agreeable to such a proposition.
It was agreed that on account of the
deterioration of the Oak street pave
ment that it should be covered with
asphalt and that the bridge approach
should also be treated with the same
material. Tho Deer Creek bridge
will also be given a coat of asphalt.
On account of the presonce here of
an asphalt plant at the present time,
where it has been allowed to remain
during tho winter, It was the state
ment of the mayor that the owner of
the plant would he able to make a
very low figure. It Is believed that
some of the fund will be left, which
will be spent on the two other roads
leading out of the city, which are
said to be badly In need of Improve
ment. The fund of $3394.25 Is the bal
ance that was allowed to the city

CIVIL ACTION IS BEING
TRIED BEFORE JUDGE
HAMILTON HERE TODAY
Twenty or more witnesses from
the vicinity of Myrtle Creek came
here this morning to testify In the
case of .lames Curtain vs. Thomas
Hodgson, which was called before
Judge J. W. Hamilton in the Cir
cuit Court early today.
The action was originally filed In
the Myrtle Creek justice court a
few weeks ago, when Mr. Curtain
asked that Thomas Hodgson and his
brother be ejected from a certain
10-aero tract of land situated near
what is known as Muck Fork. Be
fore the case could be tried, the de
fendants filed a cross complaint In
the Circuit Court In which they ask
ed that the plaintiff be enjoined
from pressing the proceedings filed
at Myrtle Creek.
Although only a few of tho wit
nesses had been called to testify at
a late hour this afternoon, it ap
peared as though an effort would
he made to show that a contract ex
isted between the opposing parties.
This contract, it is alleged, was to
the effect that Mr. Hodgson was to
receive title to the land In question
In exchange for the keeping of Mr.
Curtain during his lifetime.
in his complaint Mr. Curtain ad
mitted staying at tho Hodgson home
for a time, but said he was compel
led to leave there because of tho
unsatisfactory conditions that ex
isted, lie denied (lint he ever en
tered into any contract with Mr.
Hodgson, further than telling the
latter that be could live on the
placo until otherwise notified. Be
cause of the many witnesses to be
examined it is not probable that the
case will be concluded before some
time tomorrow.
Attorneys Ceorge Neuner and Carl
Wlmberly appear for Mr. Cur-1
tain, while Attorneys Albert Abra-!
ham and I,. B. Sandblast represent
Mi. Hodgson. i
