ton press by threatening criminal suits;
that two papers have now been tried:
result, two failures; that the "boss" way
to have a picnic is to buy two-biIs
worth of cheese and crackers and go
out In the back yard that the one

Opposition candidates who went to
Hawaii by the Lehua have taken some
little political "birds" with them to be

dollars have lately been given to the
Catholic missions, they feel rather
bound by the gift; and that those who
SOW wind may reap tempest.

Since Electricity has been applied for light
ing PURPOSES, all efforts Of inventors have
been directed 10 construct lamp Tor general
domestic use. The reason why this problem
has till now not been solved, is that none OF
the inventors could rid themselves of the idea
of gas lighting, and that all have adhered TO
the system of producing the Electricity in
some central place, or by laige machinery, in
stead Of first laying down the principle that q
Lamp which should ever become generally
useful and popular, mus be portable, like an
Oil Lamp, and contain the generator Of Elec-
tricity in itself, l. e., in the foot Of the Lamp.
The Norman Electric Light Company has
at last succeeded in completely realizing this
ideal Of Electric Lighting, and there is no
doubt that this most important invention will
bring about complete revolution in all
branches Of lighting.
Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machin'
cry, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay
and is neither complicated nor disagreeable in
manipulation all that is necessary is to refill
it every four or five days with acid. The Cost
of lighting will be as cheap as gas (34 cents
per hour), and it has before the latter the I'M
mense advantage Of neither producing heat,
smoke nor carbonic acid, owing TO which the
air is not inquired, and remains at the same
degree of temperature. 1t is further abso
lutely inodorous, and docs not need 10 be
kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply
by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger
Of fire, explosion or sufiocation, as in the cast
of gas, il the key is left open and il must be
conceded that this advantage alone is invau
able 1t is further preferable to any known
kind of lighting for the following reasons;
| I.) Its manipulation is so simple that any
| child can keep ii in order.

THE WEST SIDERs
Changing the Name OF Dakota ave.
nue--Artesian Wells.


The West Side Citizens union met last
evening at Rehbolz' hall, when several new
members were received. The old commit
tees upon the subjects of statistics and cor
respondence, and artesian wells were con-
tinued. The meeting INDUCED in quite
discussion on the subject % artesian wells,
and the proposition OF the city, which was
TO continue boring the wells until flowing wa
ter was obtained, after which the union could
continue the sinking of the well at their
own expense i'm order TO ascertain what was
underneath. The committee had been ap-
pointed to raise subscriptions TO pay the
expense of the work of sinking the well.
and to obtain specimens of the different
strata penetrated. The president of the
union, who was chairman of the committee
on artesian wells, withdrew and appointed
as the chairman of the committee Mr..
Campbell.
The subject of changing the names of
Ducas street and Dakota avenue 10 Robert
street and Wabasha street respectively, was
again brought up and made the topic of an
interesting debate that was INDUCED i'm by
bIr. Crowley, an extensive property owner
on Dakota avenue, who opposed il, Mr.. Paul
Martin and others. The latter gentleman
moved for the appointment OF a committee
to call upon the property owners on the two
thOroughfares and obtain their opinions on
the question. a number of the members
objected to the change of names. Dakota
avenue was well known to the citizens all
over the city, and that name was well es-
tablished. To change il would only cause
confusion for some time TO come, and the
change of name would be no advantage at
all. Mr.. Erdman said that he hoped the
whole matter would be laid over indefi-
ntely. The debate was participated in on
both sides by several members of the union,
and finally, upon vote being taken, the
whole matter was tabled indefinitely.
The meeting appointed a committee of
seven, consisting of eX-Ald. st. Peter,
MeSsrs. Bell, Campbell, Prescott, Erdman,
Bole and Janish to await upon Mayor Rice
and urge upon him the appointment of a
citizen of the Sixth ward as fire commits
