The Sidewalk Boom.
The sidewalk boom which
struck this town several months

it seems as thouph the property
owners of Murray have enlisted in

many others have built new con
crete sidewalks in front of their
residences. The worst eyesore in
the town is the delapidated con
dition of the walk from the Chris-
nan cnurcn to me uepoi. im
not exact lv believe in compulsory
measures to any great extent, but
we do believe that when the good
people have taken such measures
to beautifv the town those who
will with impunity permit such
an evesore to evisl i-iizlit in nhiin
v iew .if e .-"v l 1 -mii tree who e.ijnes

kins iiad a narrow escape irom
being hit by a north-bound

north of the depot Waller was
taking a pleasure ride on hi

the crossing when the train came
into the cut within thirtv feet of
him. Walter gave his machine
plenty of gas, ami at high speed
crossed the rails south of the

freight train stated that Walter
was thrown about ten feet in the
air. He lit. on the opposite side
of the track unhurt, but his ma
chine was badly crippled.
A Fine Cave.

made in and around the IVrgcr

and we do not believe that there

t - i i
neves in Having tilings con
venient around her, and she has
certainly succeeded in having her
way. The cave is a concrete af
fair and was built
by fiarnett
Ilarley, an expert in Ibis line, and
if anything freezes in the cave in
winter if, will be occasioned bv
carelessness. Then, it keeps
everything cool as ice in the sum

The Kind You Have Always Bought
Bears the
Signature of
From Wednesday's Daily.
In response to a request from
a committee representing the
Stale Association of Charities and
Correction to build a stale re
formatory, the state board of
control lias staled lhat it has
some other building operations
on its hands that must be attend
ed to before a decision is made in
regard to a reformatory. The
legislature appropriated s !."),
oihi for the purchase of a section
of land and for reformatory
buildings. At least sMO,hiO will
probably he required for the pur
chase of the land. Tiie board of
control, comprising Jude Ibd
eonib, Henry Geides and Judge
Kenney, has not selected a site
and several towns offering land
are yet to be visited by the board.
It is said the board is divided on
the question of compliance with
the expressed desire for a re
formatory. If a reformatory is
built, much of the labor will be
furnished by convicts eligible to
admission to the institution and
thev mut be paid a fixed
;um for
not the
their work. Whether or
hoard is required to build
l re-
formalory because the legislniun
appropriated fluids is one of tin
questions much discussed outside
of the board. The old board of
inibl ic lands and huihlircrs de
dined to build a building at th
Kearney industrial school for
bovs after the legislature had ap
propriated funds for thai pur
pose. In that case the board
found the number of inmates de
creasing and decided that a new
building was not necessary.
The slate board of control ha
nut as yet paid a visit to this city
where a verv likelv snot lias bee
secured that could be used for the
purpose of a reformatory. am
the board can find here all the im
quiremenis neeueu. wneiuer n pc
for farming, fruit growing or the
establishing of a brick nianu-
faclorv. such as it was thought
would he one of the features o
the new reformatory.
