An unromantic father, a nusy tele graph instrument and the law, as rep resented by an Atlanta detective, this I afternoon put an abrupt ending to th* two weeks old rnmance of Ruth Boh* a pretty sixteen - yea t-old girl, who ran away from her hmn* In Mobile to mar ry a vaudeville performer. M. H Avery, j Avery has not yet shown up. The girl said he was In Birmingham. Just two weeks ago Ruth saw Avery, and her heart did a flip-flap. It was, in i Mobile theater. Although stage 1 folk were not regarded so highly by the folks at home, she pulled a few strings, set her friends to work and me* the actor man. Sh* was his and he was ; hers in the first Inning; so they straightway decided, to get married. Gulf climatea not being partial to ro mances, h* advised her tn meet him fn Atlanta. He then went on to Blrming ha m In accordance with Instructions, she left Mobile Her father. J. W. Bailey, a business man of Mobile, learned of it -hortlxfc’and placed th* polii* n n ke* trail. An unremitting search of several Southern cities resulted In bringing I Ruth to light in a boarding house at 64 Formwait street. She had original ly been a guest at the Finlex hotel. The management th*r* was responsible for | her Ruth was highly dismayed when cap tured. but even th* ruthless law < ouldn't put a crimp In the tintram mcled b've sh* has for the actor man. "Father’s hurting no on* but him self,” she said. 'J am going to marry the man I love despite brass buttons and parental objections'' And then she smiled charmingly at everybody, including Detectives Hewell and Hollingsworth, who arrested her.

More About the Conditions Which Have Leri to Wide spread Complaint. Continued from First Page, for expenditure "n improvements, the system of making better street' is about hr same that it was when the city was tlir vll'age of Marthasville. There is not a man tn the city hall who can tell when tn improvement will begin, though the funds for it are already pro. ’•idcd. Any coirncliman will explain that the I nardest part of getting an improvement I for his ward is after council has an-’ •horlzed It. The construction depart ment always has so much work out lined by council that it is impossible to do it all within anything like the time exported. To get an improvement start ’d always means days and days of work with the streets < ommlttee of ■ ounell and the chief of construction by the councilmen and citizens Inter ested. The work that impresses the officials as the most important is be gun first. Can't Plan Ahead. Thl« mass of work always ahead of the construction department has de veloped another awkward situation. The city engineers are never able tn plan ahead. They are so constantly i urged to do this or thit work that it is more than the department can do to live up to the plans of council. With each councilman pulling for hts par ficnlat section, every piece of work passed up Is always considered Indi vidually with little regard to the gen eral development of the city. The greatest amount of work now planned is In the new and undevelop ed sections Here also the most com plaint. \ great amount of this work has been provided for by council The construction department has done the grading for much of it. The heavy rains have come along and washed dozens of such streets into terrible condi tions. The city convicts have been kept busy making repairs. But few streets have been completed so that they can withstand the rains. It is estimated that eight miles of sidewalk curbing has been put down on streets this year where the side walks have not been graded for pave ment. With curbing in this condition the rainsg have w ashed much of ft away. Covers Entire City. Here Is a long list of streets in ev er' section of the city authonized by council for pavements upon which work has not begun and when it will be gin is very doubtful To be paved with rock and cheri: Harwell street.

The work of widening and paving Marietta street from Tabernacle place to North avenue, the city appropria tion to which alone is $47,060, is now; under way. But it has been and still ' is progressing at a snail's pace. The city is now spending $5,606 in grading and paving Spring street from Walton street to Carnegie way. But this money has been appropriated since fannary I. 1911. It is but a small be ginning of a project to open a new thoroughfare through the north side to relieve the conjestton of the Peach trees. But before tills work Is fairly begun the city appropriates $5,000 to begin a several hundred thousand project on th* Pea htrees. The lowering of the grade where these streets join Baker street is hardly a beginning of what is planned for this section, but there is no plan now in sight to complete the whole project. On* of the most important works in progress is the building of a $70,060 viaduct over the railroad crossing at Bellwood avenue. But much more work will be necessary to make the ; avenue a good street. $5,000 Given For Ivy Street Repairs, Also council gave $5,660 as a starter on a costlx' scheme to regrade and re pave Ivy street from Decatur street to Peachtree street. But the amount is so small that provisions for its begin- , ning have not been made. In addition to these plans and a | scheme to connect West End. Grant park and Piedmont park with broad boulevards, council starts an improve ment of South Forsyth street, raising i its grad> and repaving it. WORKED MEN II HDDRS.WGT Southern Railway Sued on Fi v?
