ESCAPED MEXICANS.
\t the approach of the Villa Soldiers
Captors of Ledwidge
Fled.
EL PASO. Sept. 14.—Edwin Led
widge. the American commissary man
who ha«l been kidnapped by Mexican
bandits and held for ransom, has
escaped and his captors have tied. It
is known that the bandits ran away
at the approach of forces of Villa
troops but it has not yet been learned
whether Ledwidge managed to make
hi* escape before that time or not.
The general opinion here is that the
bandits shrinked from taking the
man's life.
OLD RAILROADER DEAD.
VANCOUVER, Sept. 15.—Harry R.
Abbott, aged SO, the first general sup
erintendent of the Canadian Pacific
railroad died here last night.
POST NO BILLS.
Before Post Office Inspector Neil
left here the other day he tore down
all the notices, legal, judicial, muni
cipal. etc., from the walls of the post
office and told the postmaster “allow
no notices to be tacked up on the
walls of the post office, expect import
ant notices pertaining to the postal
service, and then put them on the
black board.” It is thought that peo
ple coming in during the evening to
read the notices would turn on the
lights and neglect to turn them otf
again, thus running up the light bills
without good reason. The forbidden
notices include the famous city coun
cil ordinances.

The city council has decided to build
a two foot sidewalk from the end of
the “Millionaire Row” walk on Third

course of erection, thus enabling the
commission employes easy approach
to their new homes. Work will be
commenced on the new walk in a very
few days.
! MILLIONAIRE ROW TO
HAVE NEW SIDEWALKS.
"
Work was started this afternoon on
; the laying of a new sidewalk from the
Lowell creek bridge to the end of the
block, past Mr. Hallaine’s house. The

1 tix it up this year the private prop
erty owners have gotten together and
J will put it in themselves. The walk
will be four feet wide and made of
1 good substantial material. Contract
or tie Sherbinin is removing the old
walk and putting a grade on the now
walk foundation. It will be on the
level for nearly the entire length. Mr.

! contract for laying the new walk, and
will start work tomorrow.
