vided on the river east ot Cres-
well to connect with a road to
Cloverdale and cutting the distance
about two mllea, a' delegation of
property owners of tho Creswell
district were here today to confer
with the county court. The new
bridge plan at Creawell has been
talked over at varloua tlmea for
the past several years but no defi
nite action has been taken. It la
estimated by the oounty surveyor
that a "pan ot about 200 feet would
be required and that at least 1000
foot of filling would be necessary
at tho approach of the bridge.
Tho presont bridge one mile
south of the site tor tha proposed
span la considered unsafe being
over 40 years old, according to
County Surveyor Morse.

Wet Streets Adding
To Auto Accidents
Wet streets and fallen leaves
Increase the chance for accidents,
It was announced today In Eu
gene police headquarterB. Sev
eral accidents have been report
ed as a result ot skidding In
leaves.
Violations of the regulation for
parallel parking are also being
frequently roported. This regu
lation Is that nil automobiles
must be parked within six Inches
from the curb lino, ana not ciob-
er than three feet from any ve
hicle In front.
With the obliteration of tne
linos painted on the curbing to
Indicate the limit of 10 foot from
the property line at street Inter
sections, cars are also violating
this rule. It 1b said. Tne tratnc
officer and tho police department
are serving notice ot their inten
tion of arresting violators ot this
rule.
DANCE
at
Veneta
Every Saturday
Night
Unless tbe night police force
is Increased Eugene may again
be viBlted by the "skylight rob
bers" is the opinion In police
neadquarters. If the city must
wait until an Item Is provided
In the budget for such officers
it may be too late to avoid bur
glaries, It Is pointed out.
Announcement was received by
W. O. Judklns, chief ot police,
that the Miller Mercantile com'
pany of Corvallls had been rob'
bed of more than $4000 in mer
chandise Wednesday night. The
thieves entered the building In
the same manner they entered
numerous other stores In the val
ley, making away with 18 men's
suits, a quantity of ladies' dress
es, blouses, coats, sweaters,
skirts, silk hose and underwear.
"The loss of one such robbery
as this would more than pay the
salaries of the two night men
needed," says Mr. Judklns. "It
Is thoroughly Impossible to keep
watch over a city as big as Ku
gene with only two men. No
other city of this size on the
coast is attempting it."
McMorran and Washburne have
employed a night watchman for
their store, who sleeps In tbe
place at night. This policy Is
being followed by several ot the
larger stores, but such protection
does not extend to the smaller
firms. If the smaller stores
would keep an electric light burn
ing all night In a prominent place
In the store It would cut down
the chance of robbery, the police
declare.
represent the majority of the local In
my Judgment this is tbe best piece of
macadam road in Lane county and is
a credit to the men who did the work
I have bad seven years in road work
in Clackamas county before X came
here, and I believe every fair-minded
man on Coast Fork will say the same
aa I do.

Hunters Told Not
To Shoot at Wire
Hunters attention (small bovs
also).
Do not shoot telenhonn linn
clay Insulators.
A report from Manager J. t,.
Bland's office at the telephone
company's headquarters Mn Eu
gene, points out that this prac
tice Is "not only dangerous to
human life and safety, but It Is
an expensive proposition for the
company and the burden Is the
long run falls upon every user."
'Wben an Insulator Is broken
or destroyed," avers Mr. Bland,
"It puts somebody's home some
times several homes--out of 'com
mission. If there Is a sudden
need for a doctor, or an officer,
and the line Is shorted, loss of
life might result. It has been
known to happen. Therefore at
tention Is called to this practice
on the part of unthinking hunters
and small boys, who perhaps do
nt realize the gravity of such
an action."
