Ferriter and Jerry Sullivan. 1t is remembered
that in the city court John and Jerry Sullivan

being assessed $25, together with costs. No

clerk not only refused to converse with him, or
account for property but assaulted him. The

THE COUNCIL RECONSIDERS.
The Municipal Statesmen Decide to Let
Alone the Fire Chiefs Affairs.
Candidate King, However, Thinks He Sees a
Chance to Make Votes and Protests-Va-
riOus Matters Acted on by Aldermen.

special meeting of the Council was called
last evening to reconsider the action of non-con-
curing in Chief Webster's appointment of
Henry Cook to fill the vacancy in the fire de-
partment caused by Alex. Haugh's removal A
motion to this effect went through without any
difficulty, but on the motion to concur in the
Chiefs report, Councilman Rocker had some
thing to say He had no objection to the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Cook, but there were efficient
men on the sub-list of the department who ought
to be first considered. A man but one year in
the service, all things being equal, ought not to
be promoted to the exclusion of those of longer
experience.
Councilman Cummings thought the chief
ought to be upheld in this matter He is the
officer who should decide as to who are the best
fitted for fire service.
Councilman Thalnan said il the action of the
previous meeting carried out general de-
moralization of the department would follow
When the Council proposes to take the appoint
ments from the chief 1t should select man for
that position whom it can control Mr. Rocker
he said, did not know what he was talking about
when he presumed to know the wants of the
service better than the chief. The chiefs recon-
mendation was then concurred in, and the Coun-
Gil adjourned.

size; rinse them in clear, cold water;
have ready a pot of water at full boi.

up tenderly," with a perforated label
or skinner; place it in a colander and
press the ''last drop" of water out Of
it. Then serve up hot with a sauce of
drawn butter; or. if preferred, when
cooked, chop fine, place in a stew-pan,
pour over it a cup Of fresh, sweet milk
or cream, and simmer If for a few min
utcs, then serve. II you have no milk
or cream, use some small pieces Of
good butter, stirring the butter as You
simmer or warm it up. In either OF
these ways it is delicate. appetizing

as caulif1ower-and suited to the most
cXacting and f~astidious stomach.

Crops Seriously Damaged.
The Effect of the Drought in the
West and Nor thwest.

MADISON, Wis, July Crops IN
this vicinity are much damaged because
of lack of rain. A drought, which has
continued two months, has so injured
crops that the yield in every way will
be much diminished. Winter wheat is
we'll headed, and is turning yellow in
some places. The hot weather has
rather injured the berry in filling.
Small grain sown this Spring stands
thin, and will head with short growth
of straw. Corn cooks fairly well. Re-
ports from the tobacco fields say the
crop is being greatly damaged 10y
drouth. The hay crop will be light.
GALENA, Ill.,, July 5.-The protract-
ed drought is seriously affecting crops
in this section. Spring wheat is con-
sidered total failure in majority of
the townships not visited by rain. Corn
fields and upland pastures are in de-
plorable condition. Hay is scarcely
half a crop in this section ,and early po-
tatoes are despaired of.
ABERDEEN, OAK, July g. Hot
winds and unusually warm weather
haye prevailed in this vicinity for the
past week doing much damage to wheat.
In some places the yield will not be
more than half crop, unless rain falls
within day or two the crop Will be al
most total failure. During the last
two days the thermometer registered
1O6 degrees in the shade.
DEs MONIES, Iowa, July 5.-Crops
in this vicinity are very far advanced,
but suffering greatly from drought.
Small grains are burning up with heat,
and corn needs rain very much. With
in radius of SO miles it is very dry, as
no heavy rains have fallen in several
weeks. The thermometer registers 1O4
degrees in the shade.
