fbe plans for the annual Chautauqua blch wilt be held in the Glen the latter part of this month ' are gradually and surely taking a concrete form. All Indications tend to lead those' In charge to believe that the affair this year wfl be much larger than in any , previous year. T"he actual work of getting the place ready for the crowds ia now under way, and before many days the park will be an entirely-different looking-place from what It Is at present. ' '
If 'the new park project turns out
as planned, this will be the last Chan tauqtia in the present, location.
The only basis for an estimate of
the attendance which can be gained as yet Is from the number of old campers who have asked to be located In the same quarters as they were last 'year. The sale of lots has already been thrown open to these peo
ple, and a surprisingly large number have reserved their old places. The lot sale will be opened to the public next Monday. Subscribers' --tickets may be secured at the Y. M'. C. A. at any time now, and the regular ticket sale commences tomorrow morning. Ai the programs come off the press today, an extensive advertising campaign In this part of the state is being started. There will be one or . two slight changes In the map of the grounds this year. The most important one will be the moving of the children's tent from its accustomed place at the north end to the southern extremity of the site. This alteration was made possible by the face that there will be no "boys' city" this year. The managers thought the change advisable as it will make room for several additional campers at the north end. The board of works has commenced to trim off all dead branches from the trees, and. is cutting down some trees so as to prevent the falling .of any of the.. wood on the crowds if a storm should arise.

WOMAN GAVE CHASE i TO CHICKEN THIEF
. An exciting and sensational chase was given Fred Young, by Mrs. David Kamp, 407 South Sixth street, after the former had stolen three chicken from the Kamp- chicken - yard this morning. Mrs. Kamp who waa working in her .kitchen noticed a. man enter the rear yard and stealthily going inside the chicken yard he caught three chickens. Mrs.' Kamp called to the man but Young darted out into the alley and Mrs. Kamp took up the chuse. Young ran north in the alley
at breakneck speed and after running more than a square he noticed that the woman waa close on his heels, to he jumped over a fence into Steven Dingley's ylrd at 329 South Sixth street. Here he dropped the fowls and ran through Dingley's yard. Mrs. Kamp being unable to climb the fence gave up the chase and secured her chickens. t However. Young was not willing to he without a chicken dinner so he circled back to the chicken yards at South Ninth-and P-streets where he obtained a chicken. But, again as he was leaving the chicken yard the thief waa espied by the chicken owner and Young was given another cahse east on South F street. By this time res
idents of the south end had telephon
ed Patrolman William Hirshfield. 600 South -twelfth street. Hirshfield is
a night patrolman and he 'waa awakened from hla slumbers. As Young
neared Hlrsfield'a home, the patrolman ran out and after a short struggle
placed the thief under arrest ; He will
be arraigned tomorrow morning in
police court on the charge of petit larceny. :;:-i;v;;'v.:; , Young served two years In the Jefferson villa reformatory, for being implicated in '"crooked ' work,", he . said.

The Wayne Works, 'pne of the
largest implement and ge neral manu
facturing plants in the city, which is
located on North F 'it reet between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets,' has
.passed from partner ship management
to that of a corporr ition in order that the concern may njoy all benefits such as corporations derive. Articles of inccfl-poratlon have been filed with the sscretary of state and county recorder.- will Bobbins. The capital stock according to the articles aggregates SJ&.I.OOO, divided up into 1.500 shares, the par value of each share being $100. The term of the
corporation If j 50 years. No change is made in itjo management of the firm, the stockholders under the partnership still retaining possession of their stork in the firm as a corporation 'The stockholders and incorporators
include Edward B. Clements, Harry Land, T?,meline Land, John B. Dougan. and Hf -len L. Dougan, and Mrs. Caroline D. Schultz, widow. of the late W. V. S:hultz, who during his life time was the head of the concern. 2 A ?32veral years ago the Wayne Works
IW.-U3 a corporation but with the enact-
n"if,nt of the corporation tax law, its ' jorporation charters were surrendered and the stockholders in the firm be-
(came partners. As a partnership the company did not have to pay the cor
poration tax exacted by the United States government. On July 31 the partners disposed of their holdings to Maria Baxter, as
trustee, for a dollar and other valuable considerations, according to the deed filed with the recorder. The trustee then assigned the holdings to the Wayne Works as a corporation, giving a quit claim deed. The re-establishment of the manufacturing company as a corporation does not effect the
general policy of the firm, which has been dell defined for several years.

ROWDY IS FINED
Mont Bailey, the Greensfork resident, who was arrested "by deputy sheriff Rice Miller on a charge of public Intoxication was fined $5 and costs In police court on Tuesday afternoon. He "went down," although it is understood a 'relative will pay the five. Though out of the jurisdiction of the police court, he was arraigned there by an ' arrangement between Mayor Zimmerman and Judge Hi C. Fox. Deputy Miller believes that he has the disreputable gang at Greensfork under control ;apd expects to restore order.

. After the discussion of the proposals submitted to the, city for a water
works franchise is completed the board of public works will formulate a plan which will be given to the competing companies for consideration. Mayor Zimmerman is a trifle doubtful as to whether the public meetings which are being held to discuss the water works question ' will bring results. He believes that time is being wasted. The mayor has a plan of his own for the purchase of the water works plant. He believes that the rates should remain as under the present contract and that the company should give the city a certain amount annually which should be placed in a sinking fund for the purchase of the plant at the end of the twenty-five year franchise. "If a person is in business he is not going to invite the public to attend a meeting to decide what he shall do before he has formed any idea of what be wishes to do," "It was my idea to have the board of works formulate a plan which was to be submitted to the companies for bids and then to have the public discuss it. The trouble with these meetings is that the discussion is not confined . to the section of the proposal read. It is not because we
ed publicly and some definite conclusion will be reached if possible." Mayor Zimmerman's plan is practically the same plan as that: suggested by G. O. Ballenger at the ir.eeting last Thursday evening. However, Mr. Ballenger suggested that the, city should specify the rates to be -paid by consumers and all other i ms with the exception of rentals to toe paid by the city each year and t'e rates . to be
charged for the water sjsed by the city
and public schools. IV'i.-. Ballenger stated that this would 1 eve enough margin for the competing companies to
bid. Speaking about liiie purchase plans
of the two companies the mayor asserted that the clt i could never accept the Campleld proposition as the city could not pay Mie amount required each year. He suid that the Campfleld plan was not as attractive as the Richmond Water Wbrks plan.
BRIDGE DEMANDED OF COUNTY BOARD
County " commissioners were urged by a delegation of Dalton township residents on Wednesday to include in their appropriations for 1912, money
sufficient to build a bridge over West
River ditch. For two years the town

ditch. '
The bridge desired, will, if money is appropriated, be erected on the road
connecting West River with the Econ

TO ADJOURN Oil 19TH Congress to "Hold Night Sessions to Finish Work.
(National News Association) WASfTINGTONj Aug. 9. Indica cations ' today were that congress would adjourn next week. House leaders predicted that an agreement would be reached Boon on the wool bill and some, of them thought that congress mlg&t adjourn as early as next Tuesday. Senator Penrose said that everything pointed to an adjournment by August 19 at the latest 'The senate leaders .will insist on h olding long speeches and will probably impose night sessions to hurry

"When these meetings are over the board will draw up its plan and the council may help if s$ny member wisbtes to, but it seems as if the councilmen do not like to attend these meetings. Then the matter will be present
ing the wool bill. If cenferees do not speedily agree it is probable the house will move to discharge them. It was authoritatively stated today that Presiden Taft ; 3 will veto the statehood bill which was passed last night by the senate.
