In moving flro hydrants lnsldo tho
curb lino and much obhdr' work of
like nature. In addition to this tho

HUGHES IS NOMINATED
ON THE THIRD BALLOT
Charles Evans Hughes, Justice of
tho United States supreme court, was
nominated for president by tho re
publican convention Saturday aftor
noon, and Charles W. Fairbanks, of
Indiana, for vlco president. Judgo
Hughes' nomination camo on tho
third ballot, when ho received 943
votes ou't of a total of 987 cast. Jus
tice Hughes at on'ce tendered his res
ignation to President Wilson nnd ac
copted the nomination.
In tho progressive national conven
tion, after four days of tumult, Theo
dore Roosevelt was nominated, but
a fow hours later listened without
protest to a messnge from tho Colonel
stating that he would not "accept at
this time."
Colonel Roosevelt's declination was
conditional and It was placed in the
h'nmls of tho progressive national
committee to be. held .until such time

Hughes, 'tho nominee of tho repunbll
can party "shall satisfy tho committee

rccklmm Bequeaths Property.
Joshua Fockbam, of Peckham pre
cinct, ono of tho earllest'settlers of
that soctlon a"nd tho owner of about
3,000 acres of fine farm land besides
much cash, has made a division of his
property among his relatives and
frlonds. To hs housekeeper he gavo
$2,000 In cash: to a young man who
has mado his home with him for a
number of years ho deeded 80 acres of
fine land and to various Children arid
grand children ho alloted tracts of
land.
Mr. Peckham evidently believes that
it is better to make the division of
property before ho passes away than
to havo It divided through a will foll
owing his death.
