AFTER RULES AND REGULATIONS

The council committee on rules and

Barnes and Glaze will hold a meeting this
evening in Mr.. Coffin's Office TO attend to
the work assigned. 1t is said the rules as
prepared and reported TO the committee
will have some thing TO say OF the form

member of the council be unable to write

ever, he can be given second place on COM

BOARD OF HEALTH.
Meeting to Hear Complaints from Certain
Parts OF the City-No Action Taken

The board of health held meeting yes
terday at DR.. Wassam's office, in the Sedg-
wick block. to consider some complaints
that called for their attention. 1t seems
the Union depot mud hole comes up again,
by way OF strong petition from the
property owners and residents in that part
OF the city. They want it discontinued,
and seem to think there ought to be some
power to give them the relief asked for.
Then, again the Chisholm creek Ques-
ton comes up again. The ever
present and active dog killer
seems TO be actively in the service and the
victims of his murderous hand quite fire.
quently reach the creek and lodge on some
of the sharp curves of its banks. This is
only one cause of complaint. The desrruc-
tive bump seems to be abnormally de-
veloped in some OF the fellows along the
creek and since the removal Of the Lewis
dam, which in degree cut down the cur
rent Of the creek, Chisholm cannot be re-
lied upon so confidently for scavenger
work as formerly. Hence the increase of
the trouble which is reported by those
most concerned. One of those who called
upon the board was Mr.. VIM. Mathewson
who seemed to think very strongly that
something should be done He seems to
think the board of health has some power
assigned to it which enables it to come to
the relief of those being injured.
The board adjourned after a session of
some hours. No definite action was taken
and another meeting will be held in a few
days when it is thought it will be heard
from
Wichita eagle., 1889-06-07

Some of the residents on Oak street, near
Mead avenue report that they had light
service from the gas lamps. They seem
to think that the fellow who attends to
the lighting only comes around semi-occa-
sionaIly. On the corners OF Waco and
Tenth streets, and Wichita and Oak
streets, it is said the lamps have only been
giving service occasionally. Charley Sny-
der, the policeman at the Union depot,
confirms the reports. \ petition. 1t is
said, is being circulated in that vicinity
which is intended TO warn the council Of
the state OF affairs and trouble generally
The condition of the fellow who goes
home in such a state that be cannot tell q
gas lamp from hitching post is indeed
pitiable.
The Gas company have no gas lamps on
Oak street, near Mead avenue, and no
lamp at the corner of Wichita and OAK
streets and therefore are IN no way respon-
sible for DO light in the neighborhood
above mentioned. J. A CONWAY,

around Oxford ". X. Boggs, a Presby-

farm which has been cultivated for seY-
eral years past by Joshua Nester. Mr..
Boggs died in 1872 and was first buried by
mistake few feet over the line on the
Tilton farm adjoining. The body was re-
moved and reinterred near the Boggs resi-
dence. The widow, who lives in Wichita,
sent undertakers down here, and on Mon
day last the remains were disiDterred for
removal to Wichita and found very little
to remove. a small heap of disarticulated
bones and some bits of rotted cofflu were
all that remained of solid walnut coffin
