The meeting which will be held Friday night at the home of Lewis H. Smithmeyer, 223 South Second street, of South End residents living east of the river and a committee of six from the Southwest Richmond Improvement association is for the purpose of " arranging for a mass meeting of citizens who want the south end bridge to be located at South E street. Mr. Smithmeyer said today six men from each side of the river would secure a statement from the county commissioners Saturday to present to the mass meeting, the date of which has not been set. No effort will be made to organize permanently on the east side of the ' river as the residents of Southwest Richmond have done. After acting in favor of the South E street location of the bridge, the mass meeting will disband, unless the citizens request that the organization be made permanent Considerable interest in the meeting is expressed in shops where South End men work in large numbers. Many of them are members of the "South Side Improvement Association. The officers of this association have appeared before the commissioners re peatedly requesting that the bridge be located at South L street. It is expected that the mass meeting will be composed of many who are members of the South Side Improvement association and that they will join the cry for the E street location. Water bills due Oct. 1. 2810 CRAWFORD RELATES (Continued from Page One.) of state, permitted him, which waa not often. The result was that the local legislator became known far and wide as an opponent of the existing order of things among Democrats. Bolts His Party. It was not until the constituents of Mr. Crawford openly ignored his stand in enmity of the state machine that he bolted his party. Mr. Crawford stated openly early in the campaign that he would support for the legislature only Buch candidate or candidates as declared themselves free from machine dictation. The then spirants for nominations did not see fit to make any declaration of belligerency toward the state organization and the departure of Mr. Crawford for what he believes a more, direct means of governmental reform, the Progressive party. Mr. Crawford Is said to have a clear, comprehensive and intelligent statement of conditions in the 1913 state legislature, and those who have heard him say it is an extremely interesting story. He has a command of simple language that appeals to his audiences, and his experience as related on the stump this year has an extraordinary educational value. . W. D. Headrick, the other orator for the Thursday evening meeting, is one of the numerous young men who have sprung into prominence since the foundation of the Progressive party. He has been very active in the cause, particularly In Indianapolis and Marion county." He will be remembered by many local Progressives as the chairman of the state banquet at Indianapolis last winter. GALL SALE OF Commissioners Offer Marshall Road Issue. The sale of the Orlando Marshall road bond issue of $5,000 will take place at the court house Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. . Proposals are expected from several Indianapolis and Cincinnati banking houses and from Richmond companies and individuals.

GRAVEL ROAD OIL TO CREATE BREAK WITHJMES PLAN Commissioners Declare Oil Injures Gravel Highways in Opposition to County Superintendent. A disagreement between the county commissioners and Superintendent of Highways Jones is imminent when the road superintendent asks for an oiler to oil gravel and macadam roads in the spring. Commissioners Anderson, Doddridge and Linderman have announced that they object to oiling gravel roads. They say that experiments made in this county on gravel roads have shown that the roads will not stand as much winter and early spring wear if they are oiled. Each of the commissioners takes the same stand, declaring himself favorable to the oiling of macadam roads of the county as planned by Mr. Jones, but opposed to the oiling of gravel roads. Mr. Jones says that no opportunity has ever been presented to make the test in the manner in which he will make it. He expects to have the roads in a condition to take the oil and retain it in the winter without being affected by the spring thaws. The road superintendent probably will experience no difficulty in having the commissioners approve his plan to buy an auto truck and a stone crusher. These and the oiler will cost about $3,500. Mr. Jones says that with a stone crusher he can build macadam roads as good as any constructed under contract at $10,000 a mile for a cost estimated at less than $4,000. The Auto truck will be used to transport from twelve to fifteen prisoners daily to the seat of operations. Mr. Jones will not build a shed in which to keep his tools and machinery in this year but will store them in a private barn. Next year, after much new material has been purchased, a shed will be built near Richmond, which will be made the central storehouse and machine room for the county road system.

LARSH RESIGNS AS ROAD INSPECTOR Lafayette Larsh, 127 South Thirteenth street, has resigned as inspector f the National road east improvement. He tiled his resignation today with the county commissioners, asking that a successor be appointed by October 10. It is said that it has been impossible to keep the road closed properly and many complaints have been mad by farmers living east of Richmond which reflect against the inspector. Electric railways in the United States employ 282,461 persons at a yearly cost in salaries of $200,890,939.

Mr. Martin informed Mr. Jones that the information will be added to the highway engineering course which Purdue will have in connection with the civil engineering course after this year. The state board of accounts and the state association of highway superindents have written Mr. Jones asking him for information regarding Wayne county's road system. There are nine assistant superintendents in charge of 240 miles of road. The total road mileage in the county is 752 of which twelve miles are macadamized. The total cost of road maintenance this year to Sept. 1, in this county has been $19,348 or $86 a mile.

FALL OF TSING TAO ' PREDICTEDJY JAPS Occupy Harbor Near German Fortress and Prepare for Advance. TOKIO, Sept. 30. It is officially announced that the Japanese have occupied Lao-She harbor, near Tsing Tao. Latest reports state that one of the German gunboats at Tsing Tao was badly damaged by a bomb dropped from a Japanese aeroplane. SURROUND FORT. PEKIX, Sept. 30 The fall of Tsing Tao is imminent as a result of the steady bombardment from both land and sea, according to a statement issued at the Japanese legation today. It said that Fort litis had already been silenced and that heavy damage hafl been inflicted on Fort Kaiser Point. These two forts, with Fort Moltke, form the chief defenses of the German stronghold. In order to shell Fort litis effectively it was necessary to mount guns on Mount Lau Shan! These were dragged up the mountain for 200 feet under cover of an attack that kept the real plan of the Japanese concealed. When the Germans discovered what the Japanese troops were doing four guns had already reached the position chosen. Kills Ten Soldiers. A bursting shell killed the soldiers who were drawing up the fifth and it fell back to the bottom of the mountain, crushing ten men to death.

Its chief purpose Is to render the tendons, ligaments and muscles so pliant that nature's expansion may be accomplished without the intense strain so often characteristic of the period of expectancy. At any rate it is reasonable to believe that since "Mother's Friend" has been a companion to motherhood for more than half a century no more timely advice could be given the inexperienced mother than to suggest its dally use during expectancy. Ask at any drug store for "Mother's Friend." a penetrating, external liquid of , great help and value. And write to Bradfield Regulator Co., 302 Lamar Bldg..

Deaf

Astonishing: Improvement in Hearing, Edward Gregory, Engineer, Gives ; Information Free. ' ' An engineer who had ear trouble for years finally became so deaf he could not hear the sound of a steam engine, bells or voices. After vainly seeking relief he was compelled to give up hia position. His case seemed hopeless. His deafness was aggravated by head disturbances, dry catarrh, nervousness and despondency. To the surprise of all. he began to hear and continued improving until ho could, listen to conversations, could hear a train at a distance and even the singing of the birds in the trees. His head and nerves became tranquil. Ha got his position back again. This was no miracle; no surgery no artificial hearing devices, no electric apparatus, no loss of time. Whoever is becoming deaf can obtain particulars free by writing to Edward Gregory. 6 11-A Forbes St Jamaica Plain. Mass. (Advertisement.)
