GAS AND WAFER.

Ar meeting of the city council and
citizens on last Thursday morning, Mr. w.
A. Jeter President of the Jeter and Board
man Gas and Water Association, Of Ma
con, made proposition to furnish the city
100 street lamps for $4,000 and so fire n.y.
drants for $4,000 per year for twenty years,
making total of $4,000 per year, or $780,
600 for twenty years, the city also to grant
the franchise This would necessitate an
increase of city taxes from 81 cts on the
one hundred dollars to about 10 cts. Mr..
Jeter, we learn, is DESTROYS that our citi-
zens should vote on this question. AS to
sating good equal to the amount expended
is question that only an actual expert
ment can demonstrate. Water and gas
are very desirable, and we would be glad
to see our city have them. Mr. Jeter has
been very successful in putting in works
Of this kind in other towns and would no
doubt give satisfaction here. We find a
number of our citizens who think the city
should own the works and not a private
company, as there is always more or less
conflict between cities and companies.
Athens, Ga. has refused to pay the rent
for the past year owing to some difference
and law suit is the result while the
citizens in the neighborhood of the water
tower are going to file bill of injunction to
keep the company from building the tower
to an additional height as they claim it
will endanger the lives of their families
These squabbles could be obvated, it is
thought, by the city owning the works for
if company can make money out of it,
the city can. These are matters for our
citizens to think over and act for the best
interests of the city for it is not the con.
tractors interests we have to look after,
but the citys interests. In adopting a
plan the wisest course would be TO get in.
formation from other cities that have gas
and water works and profit by their expe-
rience. Petitions have been circulated
asking for vote authorizing the Legisla-
ture to amend the charter increasing the
tax 35cts on the one hundred dollars, Tor
the purpose of putting in water and gas.
We learn the city charter has a limit of
Scots, this additional would make it Scots.
or $3.50 on the 81 600. The city council
is petitioned to order this election Many
contend it will be a great benefit to have gas
and water works and are advocating it
strongly.

The first epidemics Of yellow fever
in the United States were in Boston,
New York and Philadelphia. Fever
appeared in New York in 1902, and
500 people, out of a population of s.
900, died. Epidemics also occurred
there in 1745, 1871 and 1898, about
1000 people dying of it in the last
named year. In 1922 the scourge
broke out, and the board of health
put fence around Rector street,
extending the inclosure as the infec-
ton spread. The death, of yellow
fever, of Prof. Proctor in that city
the other day will no doubt cause
many people to ponder over these
facts, and to wonder if the city is to
he again afflicted.

BEYOND RECALL.

Mrs. Estelle Boarman, wife of DR..
VIM. Boarman, wealthy physician
of Bryantown, Charles county, Md,
committed suicide yesterday while
laboring under mental depression.
She was seen by one of her children
to take glass with something in it
and go into the garden. Shortly
afterward she returned, retired to
her room, and told servant to get
her mirror. On seeing herself in
the glass she exclaimed: "My God,
| would give the world if | could
recall what have done" She then
told the servant to go after her hus-
band and tell him that she had ta-
ken poison, and wanted to see him
before she died. Her husband was
quickly notified and physician
summoned. They did all they
could co relieve the lady, but she
quickly grew worse and died in half
an hour after her condition was dis
covered. Mrs. Boarman leavs a
family of seven children, the young
est a babe of six months.

A Norwich, Conn, man had a
great horror of being buried alive,
and several years ago he left direc-
tons as to the manner OF his burial
after he should have seemed to have
died. His body was to be kept three
days before being placed in the
vault; then the coffin lid was to be
removed, and the vault so closed
that person could readily get out.
A hammer was to be placed near
his right hand and a lamp was to
burn in the sepulchre for three days
and three nights. Not long ago he
died and these instructions were
carried out to letter. He has not
been heard from since.

A man who died at Flint, Mich,
the other day, wrote his own funer-

his funeral, and the words of conso-

for his tombstone. He believed that
if man wanted a thing well done
he should do it himself.

Mr.. J. E. Only, of Jacksonville,
Fla, has novel, yetsimple remedy
for yellow fever. He says his daugh-
ter was taken suddenly i'll with fever
the other day and he placed her
with her back close to hot stove
and wrapped a blanket around
her and the heat from the stove
drew the fever all out without the
aid of medicine. Then his wife was
taken sick and he cured her the
same way. The roasting process
may be about as good as the pre-
vailing treatment.

The first case of supposed yellow
fever at Decatur, Ala, was that of
a hotel keeper named Spencer, who
died on Tuesday night of last week.
A few nights previous, Jackson
vile refugee came to the hotel, and
was allowed to sleep with Spencer.
The police heard of it next day and
made the Jacksonville man leave

Spencer took sick and died after five
days illness of uramia. Another

Senators and representatives have
not been backward about introdu-
cling bills at this session. In the
Senate about 1900 bills have been
introduced, being an average of fifty
two for each senator. In the House
nearly $4,000 have been introduced,
an average of thirty-nine for each
representative. The work Of intro
ducing bills still goes on. There
are now on the House calendars
nearly /, 200 bills, and it is said that
if congress should sit for ten hours
daNGntil March 4 next, their con-
sideration would demand all the
time of both branches. It's just as
well, however, to let most of them
remain where they are.

TIE AMERICAN Boy.

A few days ago at the Teachers
Institute in San Francisco, Cal ,
G. lionel Irish, OF the Alta, made
in one o. his characteristic speeches
. plea for the American boy.
1t was q manly protest in bel ali
Of the boy who all over America is
90 down trodden and despised.
The foreign boys are invading
ali the avenues of employment,
while the American boy, born on q
soil his forefathers drenched with
blood to secure, stands back wait
Ing for a chance to earn living.
Americans will put foreign boys
in their stores to catch the trade OF
foreigners, but no one seems to care
. rap for American trade or Amer
lean votes, and SO the American boy
ID not souSnt ioi.
The daily papers gave the speech
Of Colonel Irish very cool recep-
ton and dismissed in a few para
graphs. Had somebody made a
long speech ex:olling the Irish and
German young men in San Fran
cisco, there isn't daily paper down
there that wouldn't have given it
several columns and run off an ex-
ira edition to circulate the copy
among the foreigners it was intend
ed to concilIate and slobber over.
It's high time to give the Amer
lean boy show.

THE EINLEN TRIAL.

Once more Miles Finlen, OF Vir-
ginia City, has allowed himself to
be warmly congratulated" after a
jury trying him on q criminal
charge have concluded to disagree.
This is not the first time Mr.. Fin
len has been "wsrmly congratu-
lated" by his friends because of .
disagreeing jury. No matter on
what charge Finlen 10 tried on in
Virginia City, jury can never be
found which can agree as to his
guilt or innocence. He has cost
the county of Storey a great deal OF
money first and last. and how much
more is q matter Of conjecture.
His friends claim that in the par
ticular case when he killed Pyne,
that it was the first case wherein he
was in the right.
The case will probably be tried
again, bat the APPEAL strongly
doubts that Finlen will ever strike
. Jury in any Of his cases that will
not disagree.

CHIEF ARTHUR,S MISTAKE.

Chief Arthur OF the Engineers
Brotherhood acknowledges now
that he knew the 20" strike was a
failure, just about the time the Re-
port expressed the opinion that it
was. Asked why he did not then
admit the failure, he said: Il hop
ed for a compromise which would
allow us to wiegle~out of the strike
gracefully The result was that
hundreds of men were kept out of
wosk and without opportunity OF
seeking work, unless some of them
became desperate and resorted to
dynamite. When Arthur cav the
strike was a failure he ought to
have told the men SO, declared the
strike of, and let verybody get
