St. Johns School, Election. Election of two Directors will take place this evening at the St. Johns Schoolhouee to take the place of H. W. Brice and I. G. Ogden, who resigned for the reason. It was charged, that all was not straight relative to the contract let for the addi tion to the building. Candidates mentioned are C. W. Potter, H. W. Brlce and C. Carhart. The contract complained of was for Jti&OO, and was let to a partner of A. M. Culp. chairman of the Board of Directors. W. I Thorndyke and Willis Moxon called attention to the Irregularity at the meeting June 18, with the result that two Directors at once stepped down and out. Mr. Culp remained. Another re sult was that the contract was thrown out and new bids were advertised for the job, which will be received tomorrow. It Is also held that the price, J(w00, was in excess of the amount authorized by the taxpayers of the district some time ago, when it was estimated that the cost of the improvements should be about 1500. These improvements consist of the two classrooms, an assembly hall and instal lation of sanitary plumbing. The new bids will show whether this work can be done for less than the $S500. Cow With a Fonnt Streak. There is a cow In Brooklyn that Is sometimes staked out on the vacant lots on East Ninth and sometimes on East Tenth street which has a funny streak in her make-up. She takes a delight in scaring women and children. Her owner, perhaps realizing that his cow likes to indulge in practical jokes at the expense of women and children, stakes the animal with a very short rope, so her little jokes will not be serious. On Wednesday the cow noticed several women passing through her territory and saw a chance to play a Joke on them. They carried umbrellas, so they did not observe the playful antics of this festive cow until she was close on them. The animal lowered her horns and made dashes at the women, but, owing to the short stake rope, the Jokes were cut phort so much, but the effect on ,the women was highly amusing to the cow, as they fell down and tumbled over an em bankment in their undignified and fran tic efforts to escape the menacing horns. Street Railway - on 'Union Avenuk. The eaft side track on Union avenue has been relald with new steel rails between East Burnside street and Holladay ave nue, and work has been started on the west side track. Indications are that the Improvements to the line on Union avenue will be completed in about two weeks. On East Burnside street the double tracks havo been ballasted with cement and stone blocks, preparatory to the bitu minous pavement soon to be put down. Carl. A. Hanson Dies. Carl A.

The Initiative One Hundred will en deavor to induce the City Council to pass an ordinance limiting the width of road ways where there are no car lines to 28 feet and 24 feet. The park and boulevard committee of the Initiative One Hundred met yesterday afternoon and decided upon this course. Those who attended the meeting were J. B. Laber, J. D. Lee, E. W. Barnes and Frank B. Gibson. The plans will be submitted to the parent body, which meets Monday night, for in dorsement, after which the members of the committee will arrange for a meeting with the street committee of the Council. It waa first proposed to limit all the roadways without car lines to 24 feet, but it was found that the location of the sewers under certain streets would not permit of this. The streets are 60 feet wide. Where the roadway Is limited to 24 feet in width, the space between the lot line and the sidewalks will be two feet, the sidewalk six feet in width and the parking 11 feet. Where the roadway is 28 feet, the parking will be but eight feet in width. It is planned to make the proposed or dinance apply only to streets where new and permanent improvements are made. As improvements are constantly being made, it is believed that within a few years, if the ordinance is enacted, prac tically all of the roadways in the city In the residence districts will be narrowed down. This would give the property-owners more parking. File Incorporation Articles.
