KIRKPATR1GK GETS TWO RAVING JOBS Will Brick Ft. Wayne Ave., and Part of West MainRow Over Clock.

At a special meeting of the board of works this morning contracts for paving West Main street from the river west to West Fifth street, and for Ft. Wayne avenue, from the railroad to North F street, were given to C. M. Kirkpatrick, the lowest bidder. His price for the brick paving was $1.60 per square yard for the Hocking Valley brick. Ft. Wayne avenue will be improved with sloping gutters. A representative of the R. R. Sign company, of Dayton, was present and the contract for the $235 electric sign for the Glen archway was let. The sign will be completed in about 60 days. A representative of the r Howard Clock and Watch company was present to urge the board to allow a large clock, set on a high pedestal, to be placed on Alain street in front of the Haner Jewelry store. The mayor in a little speech, set forth . the evils of poles and other incumberances -in case of a fire, and said that as a city ordinance prevented this blocking of the sidewalks, the board's answer would be no. -The board then agreed to the mayor's statement and , the question was settled. The "representative, however ., states the matter is not settled, for he intends to bring 'the attention of council to this case. i The clock is a large one and as set . forth by the salesman, would be a benefit to the public, being located , near the corner of Eighth and Main streets.

TELEPHOHEMEETiNG Held Here Yesterday Was Well Attended.

For the purpose of inspecting the local telephone fcystem, and to secure suggestions which they expect to use as substantial stimulation for the best

results out of the automatic service, sixteen telephone managers from cities in eastern Indiana and western Ohio were in this city yserday. A criticising committee inspected the switchboard and other mechanism in the local exchange and in the substations and reported that with the exception of a few minor changes they found conditions favorable. The changes recommended will be made immediately, Manager Bailey stated today. The object of the organization is to

create a uniform system 0f trouble re

porting and accounting and in general to create the best possible service which can be rendered by the automatic telephone system. Each city which is represented in the organisation is visited once each month in order that interest will not lag in keeping up improvements. Following the inspection the visiting managers and superintendents were taken about the city in automobiles.

AIR BRAKE TESTS

GIVEN YESTERDAY

The private air car of the Pennsylvania lines was in the city yesterday for the annual examination of the railroad men on matters pertaining to the operation of the air brakes on the trains. The men were given oral and written questions to answer on subjects relating to air and its use on trains. The car carries one of the

most complete and expensive minaturex

trains, equipped with air.

More than 30 per cent of all vehicles in Massachusetts are motor propelled.

NEW JERSEY VOTES FOR CHOICE TODAY

(National News Assor!t!on) GLASSBORO, N. J., May 28. President Taft today wound up his New Jersey campaign with a final appeal to

the voters to support his administration and reject the third term ambition and doctrines of Theodore Roosevelt. For the first time in-the history of America, a president was seen cam

paigning only a few hours before the casting ,of ballots to determine the success or failure to his cause. The president appeared confident as be began his final work to capture New Jersey's 28 votes. He was apparently glad that his strenuous campaign was nearly over and his smile was again in evidence as he addressed a large crowd of factory workers here. That the confidence was due to a conference which he had held early this morning with Ex-Governor Franklin Murphy, was the belief of many who accompanied the president on his final tour. The confab set at rest rumors that Murphy had become lukewarm in his support of Taft. The conference was held after midnight in one of the pavilions on the board walk at Atlantic City. The two men talked for more than an hour while Major Rhoades and secret service men kept watch a short distance away.

AGREEMEHTREACHED Next Rabid Dog Signal for New Quarantine. County and city health officers, working, together, have decided that the next rabid dog appearing in Wayne township shall be the signal for the placing of another quarantine on the township. County health offi

cer King is in favor of an order of this nature and has been for some time, but Dr. Davis, city health officer, has held back. Dr. King stated today that if another quarantine order is made It will be an effective one. Wire muzzles will be specified and the dogs will be confined in addition to wearing muzzles. The county attorney has interpreted the laws on this question to allow the health officer to order a muzzle and quarantine on

each dog in their respective territories.

"There are six dogs known to have been bitten by the last rabid dog in this city," stated Dr. King today, "and each of them is tied up to be kept confined for ninety days. If they die within this time it is the sign of rabies; if not, they are not infected. There have been 360 dogs burned at the crematory within the last ninety days. Yesterday, four big bulldogs were brought to the crematory by the owners who wished them put out of the way. The people are bringing their dogs there at the rate of 3 a day. We hope the dog situation is In check."

A MISSING AMAZON Mrs. Ida Miller, arreted on the charge of assaulting and battering her better half, did not appear In court this morning to answer the charge and has not been seen since her release Monday. She will be arrested on her appearance here again and prosecuted on the charge of unduly bending an umbrella orer her husband's head.
