DIR. Edward b. Foote, as a representative
of Eclectic Medicine, as n writer of popular
medical literature, and as physician, stands
prominent, and Is, perhaps, throughout the
world, better known by his writings than
any other medical writer who has directed
his teachings to the people rather than the
profession. Born and raised among the
Connecticut settlers, on the "Western Re-
serve" in Ohio, he early began the wok of
many self-made men. Starting at the age
of sixteen as "printer's devil" in a news
paper office, he worked his way to the ed-
torial chair, and was severally connected with
the most prosperous weekly of its time in
Connecticut, and the first successful morn
ing paper Of Brooklyn, N. Y; but his main
impulse had always been toward the study
of medicine, and to this end business enter.
prises were sacrificed until in apprentice.
ship with noted botanical specialist, and
course of study finishing with graduation,
found him prepared to follow out the bent
OF his life to its completion. He was among
the earliest OF those who advocated the pub
licat,on of anatomical, physiological, and
hygenic books for the masses, and hi1 sue
cess in writing interesting and popular
books has been conspicuous. His first and
best known book, entitled "Medical Com
mon Sense, reached circulation of 250000
copies, probably because of its originality
and novelty in new field; and his subse-
quent writings have been mainly in the
same line, "Science In Story" having been
written for the purpose Of providing a read
able book for children, and one which should
make plain to their comprehension the facts
which he considered IL necessary for them
to know concerning their own bodies.
In speaking of the late Prof. j. S. Smith,
of Oxford, London, Nature remarks ut
has been said that in scientific thought the
best and most original ideas have always
been conceived before the age OF thirty. -
This is probably true, also, of the original
OF this portrait. His most radical thoughts
were published in his first work, written
before he was twenty-nine years Of age, and
though his pen is never long idle, his first
success has not yet been equaled by subse-
quent work, though his "Plain Home Talk"
"A revision and enlargement of "Medical
Common Sense" seems likely In time to
obtain circulation riyalng that of its
predecessor
In practice DIR, FOOte has always been
Independent, progressive, and original; al
ways foe OF Old-fogyism and ira les-union-
ism In medicine; once disciple of the old
ThompsOnian botanical school, Is opposed
to mineral and blood-lettlng pr,ctice, and
now a staunch supporter of Eel .ctcsm In
all that the name implies. He has been
actively engaged in the practice of his pro.
fession for thirty years, and as the portrait
given herewith is from a recent photograph
hard work appears to agree with him, and
he looks equal to twenty years more OF 1t.

A Council Committee 10 BE Rebuked
-.Yater Board Contracts.
At the regular meeting of the Trades and
l. abor assembly last evening delegates were
re ceved from the Musicians union for the
first time. The committee appointed to
wait upon the city council jointly with a
committee from the Plumbers union and
request the appointment of a competent
journeyman plumber as an inspector OF
plumbing, reported that the committee on
ordinances, of which Aid. johnson
is chairman, ignored their request
entirely. Considerable indignation was ex-
pressed at this slight, and committee was
appointed to draw up resolutions censuring
the council committee. The need of
practical plumber and an inspector was eX-
planned by several plumbers one relating
an instance III which two girls employed by
Dale, Barnes 81 Morse tainted away because
of the noXiOus gas escaping into the room
by reason of defective plumbing, which was
done by incompetent jObbers. A resolu-
ton was also passed indorSing the plumbers
strike.
AFTER THE WATER BOARD.
The following resolutions were passed in
relation to the letting of city work by the
water board and copies are to be circulate
for signatures and are then to be presented
to the board.
Whereas, For long time it has been Gus
tomary to let contracts to Eastern parties for
city work in connection with our water syS-
TEN, and
Whereas, Home mechanics and laborers
capable of doing the work are idle home
manufacturers stand ready to do the work as
we'll and cheaply as 1t can be done in the East
and home business men have goods on their
H. plo soil TO-,
chanics and laborers in this city, if the said
mechanics and laborers could earn the means
to buy, therefore,
Resolved, That we denounce the practice
of sending vast sums of money out of the
city for work which can just as well be done
at home thereby distributing the money
among onr working people and business men
to the general benefit of the whole city, and
for this purpose and as the only means of
obtaining this, we earnestly desire the ap-
pointment of men on the water board who
are squarely and uneluivocally in favor of
keeping the work in the city, and who have
stamina enough to vote their convictions on
the board, and we further desire the dismissal
of all officials connected with the
execution of the work who are hos
tile, directly or indirectly, to having the work
done in this city, and we also desire to re-
mark, in passing, that we will watch carefully
the actions of all men connected with the
work, and make record of their movements
TOR future reference.

The Active Patrol Limits Reduced

The Active Patrol Limits Reduced
About 20 Per Cent.
The active patrol limits were amended in
council last evening so as to increase the
saloon district about 25 per cent. The mat
ter was brought up as unfinished business,
and Aid. Eichhorn'S ordinance aboliShing
the patrol line was called up. He
made speech in support OF
1t, urging freedom. liberty and
popular sentiment, as in favor OF 1t. Aid
johnson introduced substitute providing
for modification of the patrol district or
ainance. by increasing the territory. By an
almost strict party vote it was adopted.
Swanson voted against it because he was
opposed to extending the territory. Mareck
voted for it because his ward, the
irSt, got most of the extension.
Beyond that it was a purely party vote.
The changes made increased the patrol ter
titory about % per cent. The First ward is
nearly half within the line. The Second is
unchanged. The Third is largely increased,
The western line running to Lyndale ave-
nue. In the Fourth both sides of Western
avenue TO the railroad are included. The
Fifth is little changed. The Sixth and
Seventh are extended along the river and
The Eighth is untouched. The change Is
entirely unsatisfactory to those who object
10 the patrol line principle, and at the same
lime will be objected to the rigid believers
- H. An effort will be made
hereafter to amend this ordinance,
If the repeal cannot be carried through.
The new ordinance was drawn by the city
attorney, and presented by Aid. johnson,
who said he knew nothing about it. Ii
was curious arrangement and when the
whip cracked the Republicans fell into line.

claring nine hours days work after June

ROUTINE WORK.
New Pumping Station Proposed
Police Instructions.


Mayor Ames invited the council to be
present at the council chamber on Wednes-
day next to hear his instruction to the police
force and to aid him by their advise and
council, which was accepted. Licenses
were granted several plumbers per recon-
mendation of the water board, A large
number of petitions was received and refer
red to appropriate committees. A long
remonstrance against any ordinance closing
the barber shops on Sundays also went to
committee. Several hundred citizens of the
Seventh ward petitioned to have the streets
and avenues opened through the old fair
grounds, and also asked a bridge
across the Mississippi at the foot of Twenty
Sixth street. Citizens of Western avenue
asked to have the patrol so arranged as to
permit no saloons on that avenue beyond
the viaduct over the Minneapolis & st.
Louis road. Supt. Williams of the Ameri-
can District telegraph recommended the
placing of district calls in the several
school houses in accordance with the sug-
gestion of the fire chief. Chief Stetson re-
ported the list of tiremen fer the current
year, Which was referred to the committee
on fire department. The list is about the
same as the one now in force The
plat and file of the Minnesota
d. Northwestern railroad, with the ordi-
nance giving it right of way through the
Sixth ward were received and referred to
the committees on ordinance and railroads
The regular monthly budget amounted to

ordered drawn. The report of the COM
missioners OH the opening of Third street
and Plymoth avenues north was confirmed.
A wooden bridge was ordered built across
Bassett's creek between Thomas and Upton
avenues. The committee on fire depart
ment reported its annual inspection and
highly complimented the department on its
efficiency. 1t recommended the purchase
of new apparatus, including a
steamer each for the Eighth and
First wards. The committee recommended
the confirmation of Chief Stetson's appoint
ments, which was accordingly done The
committee on water works recommended
the establishment of an additional pumping
station on the North side and the appoint-
ment of Aid. Morse, Sly and Mills to re-
port on the same. 1t was unanimously
approved. The railroad companies were
ordered to plank their tracks at Washing
ton avenue and Fourth and Fifth streets
north for driveways and sidewalks. The
proposition of the Minnesota Scavenger
company was rejected. An ordinance des-
lgnating where lumber and wildwood shall
not be piled was referred to the aldermen
Of the Seventh and Second wards. as those
wards alone are affected. An ordinance
was adopted establishing the grade, and or
