CHARTER.
meeting Of the citizens OF Hyattsvtlle was held
last evening for the purpose Of acting upon some
proposed amendments to the charter OF the town,
the most important OF which was one allowing
the issue OF 5000 worth Of improvement bonds.
Mr.. +. II. Smith called the meeting to order, and
Mr. ]. II. Ralston was chosen chairman, and E. n.
WsterS secretary. After a prolonged discussion
several minor amendments were adopted, and the
bond amendment was lost by vote OF 81 to 81. II
IA stated that the followers OF Henry George are
numerous In the town, and before the meeting was
held they offered TO support the bond amendment,
provided an amendment was adopted TO base taxa
ton upon land values and not upon Improvements.
This proposition was rejected, and the defeat Of
those in favor Of the issue OF the bonds Is regarded
by some as q trump for the George men.

preventing clogging with cold air.
Prof. Carpenter, OF Lansing, Mich, said
In regard to the danger Of burning oil:
The Detroit Steel Works are now burn
ing fifteen car loads day. They have
had two accidents, both OF which could
have been prevented, caused in both cases
by allowing their steam to go down. In
his district oil for steam purposes was not
a success as compared with coal, its evap.
orative power being about from six TO
twelve pounds, as determined by expert
ments made by Prof. Cooley, Of the uni
versi,y of Michigan.

brickmaking industry and his unremtting
efforts in advancing the interests of the

Mr. Randall was utterly taken by sur.
prise and completely overcome by emo
ton. For few moments speech failed
HIM, and 1t was only by n supreme effort
that he was able, in broken doses, TO ex.
press his unutterablo appreciation OF the
gift rendered him, which he promised to
cherish next TO his wife and children.
