ACTION COMPLIES JIIH CUrS DEMANDS
irst Communication, of the Kind Ever Received At the City Hall —How It Works,
''The traction company has Bent a (£&\ communication to the board of publie works in which it says that several bad places on their portion of cl| various paved streets have been reLllf paired and are now ready for the pavement to be replaced by the city repair gang.
The communication is a novelty In tself, it being the first' to ever be urned in by any corporation. Some ime ago, when the new adminlstraion first took the reigns of governent, the traction company had just completed repairing their crossing with the E. & T. H- railroad at Tenth street and Wabash avenue. In place of placing a concrete slush between the replaced bricks, the company only filled the crevices with sand, according to the board.
The board tlien ordered the company to take out street cut permits, after which the pavement torn up would be repaired by the city's repair gang and the surplus money left after the work had been completed, would be returned. This was to insure the city against faulty repairs.
This the company refused to do and as a result the manager, superlntendent and some of its men were d-rrest-ed. Finally after hesitating many months, the company took out permits
iqr
repairing numerous places along th'^ir tracks which need repair. This action was taken, however, only after the board of works gave 11 notice that the company would be reI' quired to repair their streets or the •*C city would do it and take the money '^f out of the city's light bill. The company ,was also notified that street cut «I permits would be required for cut.

There were but seven applicants for full papers, but Mueller and Ernest Frederick Gundlach, a glass blower, were the only ones admitted. Dominick Costa, an Italian, had his application rejected because he had within a few months been convicted of selling liquor to minors in Fayette township. Joseph B. Puodzina, a Seelyville miner, had his application dismissed because the witness as to his residence wanted to swear to a longer residence than the applicant claimed in his petition. The others were dismissed because of a failure to prosecute.

Freeman Trueblood, foreman of one of the departments of the Vandalia shops, and W. O. Elliott, the abstractor, testified to the more than five years' residence in Terre Haute of the applicant, and to his good moral character. When the Vandalia foreman was asked if he considered Mueller a good citizen, he said promptly: "I consider him an exceptionally good citizen." And on motion of the government the applicant was admitted to full citizenship, renounced his allegiance to the emperor of Aus-tria-Hungary and took the oath of allegiance to Uncle Sam.

Merchants Decorate.
With practically all of the business houses and offices decorated with flags and bunting the celebration commenced at 1:30 o'clock In the afternoon with a session at the Maple Avenue church, as the Red Men's hall would not accommodate the crowd of visitors. The principal speakers were C. A. Robinson, of Greenfield, and Timothy O'Connor of Staunton.
The delegates began collecting early Saturday morning and by noon Red Men from Terre Haute and many of the surrounding towns were crowding the streets about Twelve Points and Sagwa hall was a busy place. Music for the afternoon work was furnished by the Red Men's band from Staunton.
Following the session at the church the delegates returned to the hall and a class of more than fifty candidates was given the first degree work. The Sagwa team and the team from Clinton both took part in this work and it was a contest between the two.
From 4:30 o'clock until 6:30 o'clock the Daughters of Pocahontas served supper for the visitors at the Red Men'3 hall and this proved a treat. Long tables were set in the rooms on the north side of the hall and they were loaded with an unlimited amount of good things to eat.

TERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE,
OF DOUBLE CHARACTER
Flyer to Appear Here Under Auspices of Moose Expresses Sentiments Greatly At Variance.
Lincoln Beachey, master birdman, here July 4 and 5, under the auspices of the Moose lodge, is said to possess two entirely different personalities. One is the scientific, ambitious, nonmercenary, careful Dr- Jekyl-Beachey. The other is the danger-calloused, money-loving, death-defying Beachey, the characteristics of Mr. Hyde Beachey. Here is what the Dr. Jekyl has to say: "The clink of gold never sent me Into the sky. Ambition to become the world's most scientific airman causes me to devote my time and money to producing strong aeroplanes and devising feats that prove the real value of the heavier-than-air machine. "I am striving for a niche In the aviation hall of fame, to have a laurel pressed on my brow and be placed along with Wilbur Wright, Glen Curtis and Bleriot. I want the people to remember, not Beachey, the dare-devil, but Btachey the scientist."
Now turn the spotlight on Hyde "Beachey for he is almost frantic to gain the eye of the reader: "Art and sciencc! Bah! Forget all that kind of talk. It is the dull thud of dollars that lures me to the sky. What poor fool do you suppose would go through soul-terrifying stunts 1 pull off for a laurel wreath or a place ured out. in the hall of fame? When 1 look down' on a huge crowd awe-struck, gazing up at me looping the loop or up-side down flying, they represent just so many silver pieces to stow away in my hoard, that day when they turn me out of the hospital and say that 1 will never be able to fly again."
Whether these sentiments by Beachey are his real sentiments or not none but himself knows, and the public will be left to judge for itself at the fair grounds where Beachey will hold forth for his first visit in this city.

COLONEL DECIDES TO STOP HEAVY PROCRAH
Practically Admits That He Will Bow to Demands of Physicians That He Keep Quiet
OYSTER BAY, L. I., June 27.—Col. Roosevelt practically admitted tonight that he would bow to the demands of his personal physician and with the exception of a very few speeches would take an absolute rest during the next few months. He is now to make only one speech in each of the Btates where heretofore the progressives had counted on his making a stumping tour, and his trans-continental speech-making trit is off. He cancelled California speaking date today.
While Dr. Lambert holds that the colonel is in no Immediate danger, he must have absolute rest until all of the malaria and other fever which his system absorbed in South American jungles can be stamped out. Dr. Lambert deemed four months' cessation from work necessary, but Roosevelt wouldn't permit that and would only agree to "an indefinite rest."
He will speak at Pittsburgh next week against his physician's orders but to help Gifford Pinchot, senatorial candidate. jRoosevelt's throat Is also bothering him, it is said. He will have it examined by a specialist here in New York next week and the number of speeches he can make will then be flg-
EIRE AGAIN BREAKS OUT AT SALEM, MASS.
SALEM, Mass., June 27.—Three residences were burned tonight in an outburst of the flames which on Thursday destroyed three-fourths of this city. It was believed the blaze started from smoldering embers. Salem tonight is literally deluged with help and offers of aid from scores of cities. Such generosity from sister cities has presented vast suffering, and tended to temper the heartaches of the 15,000 who were made. homeless by the fire.
The "Witch City" tonight began to recover from the staggering blow dealt it. Before more than casual work of removing the debris has begun, city officials, members of the board of trade and commerce and prominent merchants began planning to rebuild. Revised estimates made tonight by insurance men places the property loss at not less than $10,000,000. Most of this loss falls on the insurance companies.
Impossible, of Course.

WANTED TO SEE FRIEND.
Man, However, Protests Too Strongly When Refused Permission. It doesn't always pay to be too Insistent on one's imagined rights as one Ed Hanlon found out yesterday afternoon. A friend of his, John Murphy by name, had been sent to jail Friday on charges of drunkenness, suspicion and vagrancy, and Hanlon, at the sheriff's office yesterday afternoon, protested too strongly his right to visit his friend at jail. He made several visits to the sheriff's office, apparently drinking between visits, and when he made his last visit Sheriff Shea happened to be present. The officer lost no time in ordering him sent to jail on a charge of drunkenness, and he will probably regret his insistence when he appears before Judge Smith in the City Court Monday morning.
