j SYSTEMATIC ROAD PROJECT OUTLINED Morton Park Will be the Center of an Elaborate Network of Roads.
With the completion of the new Morton lake, the directors are taking under consideration convenient means of access for the public Into the new park. Alexander Gordon, superintend
ent of the street car company stated today that a car extension into the park is assured at an early date next year, although the route of the line has not been decided upon. A system of paved boulevards will entirely surround the park and extensive plans for new streets, covering two years of work, have been made. Inside the grounds of the park there will be a network of gravel roads, the iflrst year, which will be macadamized as quickly as the work can be done. :By 1915, the park and the city will be surrounded with paved roadways which will be connected at all points, making In all more than ten miles of new paved streets. It is expected that if the plans are carried out, more than $150,000 will be spent for paving roads, including others than those in the vicinity of the park. What is expected to be the most popular entrance aside from that of the street car line, is North Nineteenth street. This street will connect at the Gaar road to a brick street, which will extend from the New Paris pike. The New Paris pike will also be bricked to Twelfth street, connecting there with a brick roadway, which will be built late.this year, from Tenth and J streets out onto the Middleborough pike. At twelfth and J streets, plans are being considered for the construction of a brick roadway in J street to Nineteenth street, connecting there with what will be a circle of brick streets, entirely around the park grounds. From Main street there will then be a direct brick roadway, for automobiles and vehicles. Beginning at Eighth and South H streets, there is at present under construction brick roadways to the hospital north of the city. Through these thoroughfares, connections can be made with the roads around Morton park. From the proposed J street improvement, a macadam road will connect, one half square east of Seventeenth street, running north across the dam bridge and joining with the New Paris brick street. From this macadam road, the system of roads inside the grounds will branch out.

24 VETERANS WILL GO TO CHATTANOOGA
: The Sol Meredith Post, No. 55, of .the G. A. R. will be represented by twenty-four veterans at the National Encampment to be held at Chattanooga, Tenn., September 15 to 25, inclusive. This Is the largest number of Wayne county Civil War veterans that have attended a national encampment for several years. Because of the proxim;lty of Chattanooga and its historical surroundings the reunion this year .will be largely attended by middle "west and western veterans. Though It -was believed that the Gettysburg reunion, recently held, "would detract from the number who would otherwise attend the National encampment, arrangements are being made to accommodate more men than have ever before attended a reunion of this kind. Iast year the encampment was held in Los Angeles and the year before the event was held in Rochester, New York. .Many of the veterans who will attend from here, as well as others who have not signified their intentions of attending, saw active service in the war of the rebellion in the vicinity of Chattanooga. The following is the list of local veterans who will attend: D. W. Comstock, Indiana department commander; Daniel Hill, George Fetta, John Caseley, Christ Vossler, H. H. Hoover, Elijah McMahan, Julius Kattie, Louis Miller, William Hunt .John A. Markley, Albert Bonsall, John !H. Campbell, Wm. Cooper Jerome IJordan of Mlddleboro, Charles E. Hiatt of Dublin, Jonathan Gilbert of : Dublin. Charles Morris of Dublin, Philzip Lefever of Dublin, Wm. Matthews iof Centerville, Ennia Kitterman of I Centerville, John Dynes of CenteriTille, Marcellus Beitzell of Centerville, !Nimrod Tarrot of Centerville. Many wives of the veterans and ; delegates of the various auxiliary soj cieties are contemplating attending ithe encampment. Among the wives of ! the veterans who are planning to atitend are Mrs. Jerome Jordan, Mrs. 'John H. Campbell, Mrs. William Hunt, I Mrs. Ennis Kitterman Mrs. John ! Dynes and Mrs. Nimrod Parrott
SEEK CLOTHES FOR THE POOR KIDDIES Salvation Army, on Eve of School Opening, Issues Appeal to Public.
I Ensign Anthony Vendeville, in i charge of the local Salvation Army post, has issued an appeal for donaj tions of clothing to be used in supplyI ing the children of poor families in
the city who will soon enter school. Shoes and complete outfits for boys, and dresses for girls, between the ages of five and twelve, are especially sought. Over 30 children have already been
! furnished with clothing for school pur
poses by the Salvation Army and the supply at the army headquarters in Rhoda Temple, is about exhausted. Every year clothing is furnished at the beginning of school by the army to 150 children. The heavy demand for assistance of this kind is usually felt during the first week of school. Additional clothing is needed to meet this demand. Supply Was Exhausted. Yesterday two children out of a family of six, the widowed mother of whom does washing for a living, appealed to the Salvation Army for shoes and clothing. The officials supplied one child with the required clothing, but were compelled to send the other one away because they were unable to furnish the necessary garments. Every case helped by the Salvation Army receives a thorough investigation before assistance is given. Every
i thing that is given out from this i source goes to a place where it is both j needed and appreciated. Ensign Vendeville would be glad to j receive any amount of good servicea-
j ble clothing for school children that
can be spared for this purpose by the citizens of Richmond.
An extra train to accommodate the crowds who will attend the state fair at Indianapolis, will leave Richmond at 6 o'clock on both Wednesday and Thursday mornings. The G.

Trains are Delayed
Passenger trains are badly behind the schedule, says Station Master Mayhew. The greater part of all passenger trains were from twenty minutes to an hour late.
