sioners coyrt that the presentroad
working system is a failure for the
citizens by their votes have decided
in favor of a special tax of 15 cents
on the 100 valuation of property for
road purposes The proposition as
voted upon in the Tuesday election
carried by a good majority indicating
that the people want better roadways
and are willing to pay for them The
plan to be carried out by Judge Fun

this To change the present road
working system by having the legisla
ture amend the road law cutting out
everything pertaining to overseers and
free labor work Instead of the road
overseer and his hands the special
act will provide that each person now
subject to work on the roads ten full
days in each year shall pay a road
poll tax of 250 or 300 the amount
to be determined later and be ex
empt from all road dutj whatsoever

ed sets of scenery ever built for a
theatrical production are used in the
second and third acts of The House
of a Thousand Candles the big New
York and Chicago success which will
six secret panels and so perfectly
were they made that the walls appear
perfectly smooth without the slightest
resemblance of an opening The paint
ing is so delicate that each piece of
scenery is carefully packed in a sep
arate canvas covering the covering is
lined with a soft downy substance
which prevents any scratching while
being transported
