| one of the healthiest cities in the west for
the last half dozen years, this move was
one that should commend itself to the en-.

! its sweetness in its favorite back yard and
alley, and when the smell of decaying vege
tation generally is borne ON the "odori-
ferrous wings of gentle gales" All things
considered the wisdom of the move Will De

The directors of the Bellaire Window
Glass Company met, yesterday afternoon,
and organized by electing John W. Sanders,
President; S. R. Wells. Secretary, and
James Hepburn, General Manager. T. v.
Morgan was Also appolhVeu W suuoiuihato
position under Mr.. Hepburn. These
changes or promotions were occasioned by
the Withdrawal of S. NJ. Sheets from the
company. Mr.. Sheets, the retiring Presi-
dent Of this successful enterprise,
will shortly leave for Florida
to recuperate his failing health. In the
meantime the company will go on with
every indication of continued prosperity,
as the officers are all men thoroughly &C
quainted with the business. Mr.. John W.
Sanders, the newly elected President, is
one of the most accomplished gentlemen
and capable business men in the West, and
the success of the company of which he is
now the head, is largely attributable to his
energy and foresight. He is we'll and fav-
orably known among the window glass
manufacturers, and has long been recog-
nized as one of the foremost workers in the
National Association. Mr.. Hepburn, the
manager, is also man of mature judgment
and is thorough glass manager.
Officer Criswell denies that he used the
mace on Flicker Coss, and his denial of
course, sets all the flying rumors at rest.
Col. David Rankin and wife returned
yesterday from an extended and pleasant
trip through the principal cities.
