"We can't get sand in sufficient quantities to suit us for love or money. All contractors are experiencing trouble.

They haven't a sufficient supply half the time. Everybody in town seems to be handling sand and needing it. and the facts are that the supply in this part of the country is limited, something that is good for the farmers, yet a disadvantage for contractors." It is not thought, however, that the lack of large quantities of sand and gravel will prevent the paving work now being done from being completed tefore cold weather sets in.

THOMAS Jeff D. Koons, a coal hauler and recording secretary for the local teamster's union, was arrested yesterday afternoon for violating the hitching ordinance, and assault. The latter charge is only another chapter of the many trials and tribulations of Patrolman Solomon C. Shively, of the Central Park beat, who arrested tho- teamster after he had been kicked from the wagon and the team partly driven over him. Koons had allowed his teaming outfit, to stand in the streetin North State street east of the Citizen's Title and Trust Co.

The teamster paid little or no attention to the command of the policeman, and climbed to his seat on the wagon. Determined to carry out the arrest.

Patrolman Shively started to climb on the wagon, when he was kicked in the breast by Koons, who knocked him to the pavement. It is charged-by the policeman, that Koons then -Attempted to drive the team over him and partly succeeded, one of the horses stepping upon his (Shively'a) foot.

Then, as she makes other measurements, the dressmaker will make an odd little noise in her throat, as though she, were about to say something, but decided not to; and. when the woman who thought she had a "figure," walks out of the room she is thoroughly cowefl.

Women have sal application ot those women government clerks who lost their positions by reason of the President's desire for economy, and who suggest that they be given the places which are now being held by married women whose husbands are able to support them. The agitation regarding the right of married women to crowd unmarried women out of the school positions, of which much was a few years ago, has largely died down, its abatement being due to some extent perhaps to the testimony of such an eminent psychologist as G.

Stanley Hall that association with married women is better for young people than that with precise spinsters. However, this can hardly establish a precedent for the case of the government clerks. It would appear that clerical work could be done as well by the unmarried women as by those who have husbands, and among some of the cabinet officers the old fashioned notion may exist that the place for woman is in the home if she has one. low faces, dull eves and hollow cheeks, together with low spirits, when they are made miserable with disorders, derangements and weaknesses neculiar to their sex.
