A vpetition is being ecirculated about town asking for the construction of a cellar under that part of the town building which is occupied by the G. A. R. rooms and the library. Many do not know that there is no cellar under that part of the structure, as is evi- denced by their surprise on being pre- sented with the petition. It is claim- ed that the library cannot be properly heated, and that the rooms used by the G. A. R. and kindred organizations are cold and damp in winter, Several times - Children Ory FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA pring Cleaning is the all important question for the housewife just now, and many changes are neces- sary — a new Carpel, some Curtains, a Chair, some Bed- room Furniture or a room to be Papered.

Mayor D. P. Dunn was standing near the corner of Raiiroad street and Main, d started for the boy., who let go his hold as he saw the ayor ap- proaching.

The structure will be large enough to accommodate several tru giving room for additions to their present business. Automobile Law Ignored, Although the automobile law is in effect now, with the changes made by the recent general assembly, few of those operating motor vehicles in the city streets are following the law in coming to a full stop at least ten feet behind a trolley car which has stop- ped to take on of let off passengers. This is an important provision in the law, and the fact that the motorist is ignorant of it will be no excuse if he is arrested for its violation. It is re- ported that the copies of the new law are not yet ready for distribution, but the law went into effect June first.
