DON'T LIKE QUALITY OF BRICK WANT CONTRACTOR ENJOINED West Fourth Street Property Owners Say Brick Now Ranked on the Street is Unfit for Use in Repaving the Street and City Solicitor McCray is Asked to Secure an Injunction to Prevent the Contractor From Making Use of That Material--Solicitor Has Matter Under Advisement and Will Make An Investigation. The dissatisfaction that has been manifested by West Fourth street property owners regarding the quality of the brick that has been delivered along that street for use in the repaving of the street reached the point of taking definite action Tuesday morning when City Solicitor McCray was served with a notice in which Attorney George Brinkerhoff, in behalf of a number of the property owners. on West Fourth street, manded that the solicitor begin an immediate action to enjoin the contractor from using the brick, for the reason that they are of poor quality; not suitable for. such a purpose; that they are full of sand holes, checked and not uniform. City Solicitor McCray stated Tuesday that he had not yet decided upon any course of action in the matter of taking steps to enjoin the use of the brick but that he had the matter under advisement, and if, after looking into the facts regarding the quality of the brick he was of the opinion that it would work an injustice on the property owners of the street to permit the brick to be used in paving the street he felt that It would be duty to take the matter into court and ask for an injunction.

Following the action by council in providing for the improvement of West Fourth street it was up to the city board of control to arrange for the material to be used on the street end the contract was made for the Massillon brick that some time ago were placed along the street in readiness for use, this despite the fact that a total cost of something like NEW JURY SYSTEM FOR THE COURT Judge Mansfield Sends Out Letters to Secure a List of Good Men for Jury Duty--Petition in Error. Common Pleas Judge Edwin Mansfield is about to attempt to inaugurate a new jury system to some (extent. Heretofore considerable trouble has been experienced to secure suitable jurymen when the regular panel bas been exhausted. Of course it is always possible to send out around town and pick up men for duty on the jury but not always are the right kind of men found by such methods. Judge Mansfield has decided to send letters to all the manufacturing plants and places of business in the city and request that the names of men who would be available for special duty be sent in.

The judge thinks that each concern could send in the name of at least one man who would be ready to respond for jury duty when needed. In this way good, competent juries could be secured in a hurry. When the responses to Judge Mansfield's letter come in to the court house A list will be made up and kept handy for the future. Judge Mansfield EAVE that it costs the county too much to keep a sufficient number of Jurymen regularly drawn and summoned for use in case the panel is exhausted, they being entitled to $2 per day while on call. By the sy'sten which the judge proposes to try not only would good, competent jurynIen be secured but they would be within reach when needed without any expense unless they are actually used for jury service.

Such jurymen would only be required to serve on The Crime of Ignorance Nowadays every one should know that to make the bome absolutely clean, free from the invisible germ life which causes the diseases of Tuberculosis, Scarlet Fever, Typhoid Fever and Measles, an efficient disinfectant must be applied.

OBITUARY. Campbell. $900- more a grade of brick could bave been purchased that would have been entirely satisfactory to all parties concerned. As West Fourth street is one of the most generally traversed streets in the city the owners of property on this street have felt that they were entitled to as good an improvement as could be secured and have felt that it was poor economy to put in all inferior grade of brick for the sake of saving a few hundred dollars in the making of an improvement that should last for a long term of years. In the event of the contractor being enjoined from using the brick now on the ground it is possible that the final completion of the contract would go over into next summer, but it is stated that the concrete foundation could be put in so as to make the street passable for the winter and that the street car tracks could also be replaced for use during the winter.

While such a delay would naturally result in a considerable inconvenience, especially to the people residing on that street, a great many of them feel that this inconvenience would be preferable to permitting the work to go ahead now and getting an improvement that would be of A shoddy character and with which they would never be satisfied. The property owners represented in the request of Mr. Brinkerhoff to the city solicitor are Jessie F. Brinkerhoff, C. Flockerzi, James A.

Niman and George W. Schmidt. In the event that the solicitor decides to not take the matter into court any property owner on the street may go into court and ask for an injunction. one case during each year. The court thinks the experiment is at least worth trying out.

"He was a delicate child, but has developed into a strong, healthy boy and Postum has been the principal factor. "I was induced to give him the Postum because of my own experience with it. "I am sixty years old, and have been a victim of nervous dyspepsia for many years. Have tried all sorts of medicines and had treatment from many physicians, but no permanent relief came. I believe nervous dyspeptics suffer more than other sick people, as they are mentally as well as physically.

"I used to read the Postum advertisements in our paper.

From the beginning to the end of the season, and between seasons, the lot of the circus manager lacks more than one thing of being sweet peace. First, he was confronted with a dearth of attractions, it being impossible to secure anything new. This is not so today.
