construction has been during the last
ten years there has been no let-up in
the use of lum ber, and both architects
and builders find themselves so de"
pendent upon wood today that they
are compelled to a d m it that the for-
esls of the c o untry are likely to l>e‘ tlie
chief source of building material for
m any years to come. “The use of
cem ent, terraco tta, brick and stone,
\vith a framework of steel, will make
it po-siblc soon to do away with wood
entirely,” is a rem ark often heard;
and, indeed, when one stands on low­
er Broadway and looks up at the
towering skyscraiiers, the statement
seems to c ontain mhcli truth. As a
m atter of fact, however, the popular
idea th a t fire-proof materials if ill do
away with the need of using lumber
in a com paratively few years is a
very erroneous or.e. All the various
fire-proof m aterials going into the

substantial buildings arc used in

J. R. and J. M. Craven, of Indepen­

well known and old established h a rd ­
ware business of Mr. Wm. Fanil. The
invoicing is now going on and Craven
Bros, will take charge as soon as it is
finished. Mr. Knnil has one of the
largest, if not the largest stock of goods
in this line carried by any m erchant on
the West Side. He has been in busi­

our Pioaeer m erchant. From a small
beginning he has built up a m am m oth
establishm ent, and can now afford to
sit back and take it easy for the rest of
his days. Ilia successors are gentlem en
well known for th eir business ability
and integrity, and there is no reason
why they will not comm and the large
trade so long enjoyed by Mr. Faull.

An Innovation.
At its called meeting last Sun­
day afternoon La Creole club
made two changes in her bylaws,
which will, we think, work for
the good of all concerned and for
a greatly increased membership
of the club. It was decided to
change the number constituting
a quorum from 15 to 10, which is
certainly enough people to tran­
sact any of the club business.
Ever since organization the club
initiation fee has teen $10, this
being thought sufficiently low for
all who desired to avail them­
selves of its privileges, but at
Sunday’s meeting it was decided
to for the next 00 days, begin­
ning December 1st and ending
February 1st, cut this in half.
One hundred application cards
have been printed, and on appli­
cation to F. J. Craven, secretary,
you can secure one and get all
your friends to join while they
can.

Grand Jury Now Compulsory.
At the Ju n e election proposed by ini­
tiative petition the people passed a ‘'con­
stitutional am endm ent providing for
the choosing of jurors and grand jurors,
and th a t no person can be charged in
tl»c circuit courts with the commission
of a crim e or a m isdem eanor except on
indictm ent found by a grand jury,
except when a court holds an in ­
dictm ent to be defective, tin* district a t­
torney may file an am ended indict­
m ent.” Acting under th a t law now in
force the clerk will at next session of
the circuit court call the roll of the ju r­
ors under instructions from the judge.
The first seven names called will consti­
tu te the grand jurv, who will be sworn
and sent to their deliberations, secretly
and in charge of a bailiff. After their
session they will make th eir report to
the court. Street rum or has it th a t they
will find plenty of work confronting
them when they convene, hut of course
this is all a m atter of conjecture. They
may or m ay not have considerable to do.
