"I am overwhelmed to meet you, colonel," said the young man. The colonel seized the outstretched band, giving it a grip that made the young man wince "I'm always glad to meet a native-born citizen," said the ex-president. The young man then pulled a green-red and lavander neckties from his pocket, begging the colonel to accept it as a gift. Colonel Roosevelt eyed it for a moment then politely declined.

Seventh Street Scrap Worries Works Board

i Whether the city will decide to stand pat on its resolution to pave North Seventh street with brick, or will waive the technical points involved in the case, which has defeated

the efforts of the majority of the resident property owners to have the street paved with cement, will be definitely decided by the board of public works this week. If the board decides to waive its technical right to brick the street and risk extensive and costly litigation, all proceedings will have to be revoked and new proceedings Instituted. The principal technical point involv

ed in this controversy, which has made life a burden for the board members, hinges on the legality of the Misses Qulgley signing the petition for

cement paving as "heirs of the Savage estate." City Attorney Bond declared

that for the two women to sign the petition in this manner made their

STANDS IN MARKET

SOLD AT AUCTION

An auction sale of central market

house stands was held yesterday afternoon at that market house, Harry Hodgin, building inspector, acting as auctioneer. It was the first time these stands had been disposed of on a competitive basis and there were complaints made that the city was unfair in making the gardeners bid against each other. All stands inside the market house were disposed of at fancy figures, but there was not the usual demand for outside stands. The sale netted the city $733, or about $40 less than last year when all stands were disposed of. These stands must all be paid for within 30 days. One Inside stand brought $47, paid for by Conrad Zwfssler and another inside stand brought $42. William Behnan paid the highest price for an outside stand, $27, located at South Sixth and A streets.

er signatures on the cement petition were invalidated because they were not resident property owners. Board In Quandry. If the technicality pertaining to the signatures of . the Misses Quigley is waived by the board and they are recognized as petitioners for cement paving, then there will be nineteen petitioners for cement against seventeen petitioners for brick. The board recognizes, however, that In waiving this technicality it runs the risk of having the courts rule that it had no right to take such action and the cost of making the street might fall upon the city. Dr. J. M. Wampler, leading advocate for cement paving, positively declared today that no attorney representing the cement petitioners would meet with the attorney for the brick advo

cates and the city attorney for the pur-

signatures invalid, and the board act-i pose of discussing whether the board

CHILD IN WATER

1 MINUTES, SAVED

HAGERSTOWN, Ind., May 26. Since 11 o'clock physicians have been working with Charles Meyers, eight-year-old son of Jerry Meyers, wellknown cattle buyer, who fell in a fire cistern here and was In the water seven minutes before men from the Teetor plant could rescue him. There was some hope for reoovery when the father who was in Richmond this morning reached home this afternoon. The boy was riding on a large sled trailing a wagon on Washington street, when the sled passed over the cap of a fire cistern containing fifteen feet of water. The sled runners dragged the lid off. The boy lost his balance and fell Into the water with a terrified cry. Men from the nearby factory were

cnuea ana succeeded in pulling out the almost lifeless body as it came to the top the third time. One of the men was lowered into the tank by his heels, pulling the boy out.

SMELSER REMOVES INSPECTOR FLOOK

Announcement was made today of the removal of Charles Flook as city dairy inspector. This action was tak

en by Dr. S. O. Smelser, city health officer, but no statement could be obtained today as to the cause of Flook's removal, Dr. Smelser not being in the city. It is generally supposed that Flook displeased the health board because of his alleged efforts to defeat the mik inspection ordinance, killed In council last week. Members of the health board greatly desired that this measure be placed on the statute books, while Flook, it is alleged, on several

occasions publicly showed his sympathy for the dairymen in their successful effort to defeat the ordinance. Flook was appointed dairy inspector by former Mayor Zimmerman and was continued in office by Mayor Robbins for an indefinite period. There had been objections to Mayor Robbins reappointing Flook, but the mayor said he would retain him in office until some action had been taken on the then pending milk ordinance.
