$27,000 SPENT ON CITY'S STREETS Greater Improvements Made ' This Year Than Any i Previous Time. NO OBJECTION REGISTERED

STREETS OF RICHMOND ARE IN ; GOOD REPAIR1 AND CITY COUN- " CILMEN HAVE NO FAULT WITH EXPENSE. ' tr' '" Mora street improvements have been made in Richmond this year than any preceding year for some time past. In 1906 and 1907 the city each 'year expended between $2-1,000 and $25,000 for street Improvements. Council was Informed last night by City Controller Parry arid W. P. O'Neal of the board that the city's street improvement bill this year would amount to between $27,000 and $28,000. ening to council in explanation of an ordinance appropriating $1,700 for the i payroll of the street commissioner, which was passed under suspension of the rules. The city throughout the year has had a large number of men employed on street work and there has been a large amount of crushed atone used. Street Commissioner Dye jlow has nearly every street in the city In good shape and council has no objection to appropriating money for this work so long as it continues to be as satisfactory as it now Is. ( Mr. O'Neal explained that this year Torth Fourteenth street, North Tenth street and South E street from Fifth street to Sixth street had been niacadamed, several storm sewers' had been made and that improvements would ye't be made this year on North Eighth street and North D street. He said that graveling work had feen done on the following streets: Xorth Third, Ft. Wayne avenue, from Fifth street to D, Washington avenue, North E from Ten'th to Nineteenth, one square on North Thirteenth, one square on North Twelfth, five squares on North Sixteenth, North D from Ft. Wayne avenue to the C. C. & L. railroad, the National road in front of Glen Miller park, Newman's Hill road, Prldge avenue and North Tenth from 4 to the hospital. Frail Women j Aided Free The woman who is by nature not fobust cannot be too careful of her tealth. The foundation of all health is in the stomach. Without good digestion the body is not nourished, and then soon becomes feeble and weak. Mn order to have good digestion regular bowel movement is absolutely xiecessary, and it is at this point that So many women neglect themselves. In any of these conditions you cannot do better than to take Dp. Caldwell's Syrup fepsin, uia remeay uiai ingusanus ui delicate women are using. It is the great family laxative, and in addition. to its wonderful power to core chronic constipation and chronic indigestion, it contains tonic properties that strengthen the stomach muscles so that in time they will work naturally again without the aid of medicine. Any druggist will sell you a bottle for the small sum of 50 cents, though persons who have used the remedy before and know what It is buy the $1 size. Mrs. Amanda Brannan, of Alvarado, Va., who Is 68 and feeble, uses it regularly and nAttlfa In h hlffhait nrafaf) rt it VC t H T" Pine, of Marion, Ind., is also an enthusiast of this wonderful remedy and she wished he had the fortune to tell the whole world about It. Both these ladies, as well s hundreds of others we could name, first became acquainted with Dr. Caldwell's. Syrup Pepsin through the doctor's offer, to send any sufferer a free test bottle direct to the' home. He will send you or any other sufferer sample bottle free of charge on receipt of your name and address.

HEARST SPENDS HALF HOUR WITH PRESIDENT

Washington, Nov. 17. William Randolph Hearst, the New York editor who placed the Independence ticket in the field in the recent presidential campaign, called at the white house last evening and spent half an hour with the president. A great deal of speculation has been excited by his visit, although Mr. Hearst said afterward that he had merely called to pay his respects. The Independence movement was one of the republican assets during the cam JOHN L. GRIFFITHS MEETSPRESIDEHT Has Long Chat With Executive. Washington, Nov. 17. John L. Griffiths, United States consul at Liverpool, who, with Mrs. Griffiths, has been at the Shoreham since last week, called at the white house and had a long chat with President Roosevelt He was cordially received by the president. Mr. and Mrs. Griffiths will go to New York in a day or two and will sail for Liverpool within ten days. MARY GARDEN COIFFURE. Arrangement a la Thais the Very Latest Wrinkle. The latest effect in evening coiffures is the arrangement a la Thais, that affefted by Mary Garden In her Interpretation of thte role. While it is extremely effective and artistic, it has an advantage in that its arrangement does not offer very grave difficulties and that it can be accomplished even where the growth of hair is not abundant, j The hair is divided across the bead, waved a very little, and then the front hair Is again divided by a center part. Both sides of the front hair are then puffd out loosely and secured a little benonth the crown of the bead, after which the previously waved back hair is brushed up to met the front hair and is also puffed ont in pompadour effect. This, however, must be as irregular and soft In outline as possible; otherwise the artistic effect produced by the finished coiffure will not come up to requirements. Unite the long strands of hair and form a large Psyche knot well in the center of the head, pinning it down securely with a few large shell pins. If preferred a large bun or plain coil or a figure 8 may be substituted for the Psyche If the hair is not sufficiently long and thick to make a large knot , a small one would not be in keeping with the full arrangement of the hair or even a braid laid flat over the head. Puffs in Grecian style are also permis- j sible with this coiffure, and as many as nine of them may be made or purchasedarranging them in flat, irregular rows over the back of the bead. A Grecian filet is placed in front of the coiffure. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Don't squint. It weakens the lids. Neither must you wink. A bad habit (s formed and you wink unconsciously. Keep the chest well up, the shoulders back and the abdomen in; then start out for a walk with some definite) purpose in view. There is a tendency toward individuality in hairdressing. The woman who studies the lines of her face and considers the contour of her head is much wiser than her sister who insists that her coiffure be In the latest fashion. The particular woman never uses a sachet of one odor, a soap of another, a powder of a third, and so on. She either hllvs lier snxna nn1 nnnilun Tin. scented or else has them of the same ; scent as her sachets and perfumes. There must be no conflicting of odors. Tonic baths are decidedly refreshing when that tired feeling first overtakes a person. For the matter of that, a warm bath not hot enough to be weakening, but of low enough temperature to relax the nerves, is always beneficial and may be Indulged, in whenever a woman is fatigued.

F

paign and a contributing factor to republican success. When Mr. Hearst was asked whether his visit had anything to do with the Ohio senatorial situation or with the New York senatorial situation he replied in the negative. These questions were put to him on account of his production of the Standard Oil letters in Ohio and on account of his opposition to the election of Secretary Root as senator from New York.

WIFE ASSAULTER MAY PLEAD GUILTY Whiteman Will Be Arraigned Friday.' Announcement has been made in the Wayne circuit court there is a probability Valentine Whiteman, charged with assault and battery with intent to kill his wife, will change his plea of innocence to one of guilt. The case has been set for trial on Friday of this week, but the court has announced It is probable no trial will become necessary. It is known that if the state does not succeed in making the charge against Whiteman, he will be tried on another charge of equally a serious nature. A DECORATIVE HINT. Burlap as a Wall Covering Is Durable and Artistic. Burlap as a wall covering is now recognized as being very artistic as well as durable. It is now made in the finer grades and in all colors, so that It will meet any requirement. It is very effective for use in the dining room if properly handled. Burlap makes an excellent material for window or door curtains In a room hung with felt or ingrain paper. If curtaining of this kind seems too plain it may easily be brightened by stenciling. StencH'patterns can be drawn by any one who uses the pencil a little. Frequently in magazines are found ornamental head and tail pieces that will furnish the motive scrolls, conventional leaves, circle and dart patterns and fleur-de-lis. Draw the pattern small at first and then develop it on an enlarged scale upon a sheet of stiff but thin cardboard. When it is penciled clearly cut it out with the scissors. They will give a smoother line than the penknife, though in using scissors the stencil must be cut through at one point. This is remedied, however, by gluing the edges together with a strip of paper on each side. A stenciled border for window curtains or portieres runs down the center and along the lower edge. The goods must be laid flat on an even surface, stretched across a large pie board by means of small wire nails or over the bare wood of a kitchen table. The kind of paint used is known to decorators as "distemper coloring." It should be applied in a smooth wash and should be neither pasty nor thin, for if too thin It is apt to run, and if thick it forms into lumps. A flat and rather pliable brush spreads the color evenly. Be careful to press the stencil down firmly around the edges over the part being painted to prevent the colors from running underneath the cardboard and making an uneven line. To repeat the pattern lift the stencil, wipe clean and lay it over the proper spot. A little care about this matter will assure the proper spacing. The best way to keep the design In alignment, however, is to stretch the entire curtain evenly on the bare floor of an unused room. Draw a string taut between the two nails at either end of the curtain and use it as a guide line to keep the stencil straight. Where the design is a leaf pattern with a stem the latter may be joined afterward free hand, making the entire border continuous. Almost any piece of goods in a flat color and of sufficient weight can be made into a table cover either by stenciling or by stitching to it a border of tapestry, silk or cotton cut with mitered corners. Kndol ?or Indigestion. Relieves sour stomach, palpitation of the heart. Digests what you eat.

AGED PEOPLE : AWAIT DECREE Judge Jackson of Henry Circuit Court Has Elstro Case Under Advisement.

WRONGS WERE FANCIED. THIS THE DEFENSE CLAIMS AND STATES IT WOULD BE SHAME TO SEPARATE PEOPLE MARRIED FORTY-FIVE YEARS. No decision has been rendered in the Elstro divorce case, which was on trial In the Wayne circuit court yesterday. The case was not concluded until after 6 o'clock. The evidence required so long to place before the court that the argument of the attorneys was cut short. Judge Jackson, of the Henry circuit court, who heard the case, has taken it under advisement. He has not intimated when he will render his decision. The defense based its claim for a decision on the ground the trouble between Mrs. Elstro and her husband does not exist so much from realities, as the fancied wrongs impressed upon by her two daughters and their husbands. It was charged there Is an improper interest that has been manifested by the latter and that a divorce is desired by them, so they may some time obtain the possession of certain property interests. It was maintained by Adam Elstro, one of the sons, that his mother had become overwrought as the result of the advice offered by his sisters adverse to their father. The defense claimed It would be "a shame to separate two persons by law who have been married forty-five years and now are sixty-eight years old.

SIX MEN MET DEATH

Loose Timber Sweeps Coal Mine Cage Killing Them. THREE ENGINEERS DEAD. Ellsworth, Pa., Nov. 17. An ascending cage in shaft No. 2 of the Gllsworth Coal company, this county, last night was swept clear across its surface by projecting timbers and six men were knocked off and killed. The cage was 225 feet from the bottom when the accident occurred. The dead: Eugene Smyth, aged 24 years, civil engineer. J. B. Newcomer, aged 22 years, civil engineer. M. J. Walsh, aged 20 years, civil engineer. Tony Romano, aged years, miner. Samilll Petronio, aged 2 years. Florie Pazine, aged 30 years, i The three engineers, who hafl been employed by the company several years, had Just completed a survey of the mine preparatory to starting new entries, the six foreigners having assisted them. A heavy wooden beam was loaded into the cage and its ends projected beyond the sides, the men riding on the timber. All went well until within 75 feet of the top of the shaft, when the projecting beam struck one of the planks of the shaft's cribbing, displaced by expansion due to the cold, and most of the men were dumped out of the cage. The six fell to the bottom, a distance of 225 feet, the heavy timber on top of them, and were crushed almost beyond recognition.
