THOSE LEHI WELLS.

A petition was presented by P. H. Alfred
asking that damages be allowed him on account
of the artesian wells put down by the city in
that vicinity draining his springs and de-
priving him of water, as was set forth in the
coudcil meetings several months ago. Referred
TO the water commission.
Councillor Roberts then moved that as the
water commission had not fulfilled the duties
for which ii was appointed, that it be dis
charged. After considerable discussion it was
decided that ii would be more proper to ask
that written report be submitted to the coun-
ell of the work done.
The mayor stated that a contract has been
let 10 dig several wells, and that a carload of
pipe was now on the way Work was being
pushed on the Liberty park well, which had
already been sunk twenty feet.

The National Charms and Lovliness o.
Elizabeth's nl-Starred Rival.
That Mary wore false hair, and OF
many different colors, there is every
reason to believe. Elizabeth is known
to have had a collection of eighty wigs,
and her dear cousin, with the unusu;.l
advantages of so many seasons in
Paris, is not likely to have been far
behind her. Among the statements of
the accounts of her personal expendi-
ture are numerous items of perruques
de cheveuc, and Sir Francis Knollis,
writing to Burleigh of the ever faith
full Mistress Mary Seton, the finest
busker, that is to say the finest dresser
of woman's head of hair that is to be
seen in any country" says: "And
among the pretty devices she did
set such curled hair upon the
Queen, that was said to be perewke
that showed very delicately. And
every other day she hath new device
of head-dressing, without any cost
and yet setting forth woman gayle
we'll" This variety and eccentricity
of couture naturally adds to the con-
fusion, and makes greater the difficult
ty in identifying positively any of the
portraits or descriptions of her. His
torians say that her mother was tall
and beautiful, that her father was dig
nitied, having a fair complexion and
light hair; and other and contempo
raneous historians say that she inner
tied most of the characteristics of her
parents, "being about the ordinary
sAze, with fair complexion and Grecian
features, and a nose somewhat longer
than a painter would care to perpetu.

forehead high and fne." Froude,
In later days, pictures her a.
graceful alike in person and in in
tellect, and as possessing that peculiat
beauty in which the form is lost in the
expression, and which every painter
has represented differently; and Bran
tome. one of the ancient chroniclers,
summing it all up in one fine sentence,
describes her at her marriage to the
Dauphin as being more bsauteous and
charming than celestial goddess"
