Committee.
After the reading of the report came
remarks from Capt. T. j. Robinson, up :
on the citizens brick inspection excur-
sion, during which great deal was said
in favor of brick. and then Mr.. Phil
Mitchell read the report Of the property
holders, who had made the tour Of brick
inspection and which has been published
in full in these columns, and also read
the Guyer petition circulated yesterday
urging the council to adopt brick.
Aid. Schnell expressed his disspproval
of the petition. 1t came in his opinion
as a slur upon the council and the ap-
parent object of those designing and Cir
culating it had been to forestall the coun-
Gil in its action upon the report of its
own committee on paving investigation.
1t appeared as if there was some fear as
to what the committee would report in
favor of and the aim seemed to be to
lead the council to disregard the report of
its own committee and to permit brick to
be forced upon it. The council had
shown its disposition to favor the prop
erty holders preferences by flrst selecting
granite. then changing it to cypress. and
lie would not be opposed to brick, but he
did not like the idea of a few brick men
running the council and the property
holders. too.
Alderman Negus looked upon the
petition as gross insult to the commit
tee on investigation and the council.
The report of the committee on invests
cation. which did not favor anything,
In particular. but was complete and
thoroughly unprejudiced and unbiased.
should at least have fair consideration
by the council, upon whose authority it
was made. and the property holders
should be given an opportunity to read
it and decide for themselves, before
fore being asked or persuaded into sign
ing petition favoring any particular
material, and no petition should be con
sidered by the council until its own cons
mittee's report had received due and re-
spectful consideration. The attempt to
force upon the council an action in fa>
vor of brick, at this stage, was an insult
to it.
Alderman Howard lifted up his voice
in favor of brick, and offered an excuse
for the Guyer petition-the ground be
ing that the petitioners might have fears
that the council might act upon its own
committees report. and adopt something
beside brick at this meeting.
Alderman Edwards stated that he was
at Galesburg last Friday. and that. to a
fair minded person, macadsm would be
vastly preferable to the paving brick
used there. 1t was uneven. badly worn
and covered with brick, dust-an actual
disgrace to an enterprising city. He

Alderman Schroeder moved that the
property holders be given until next
Monday night to express their prefer,
ences. The motion prevailed, and then,
upon motion of one of the enthusiastic
brick men present, the council ad-
journed.

Last of all came little girl that
lived with her mother at the foot OF
Rosebud lane. And as she stood be-
fore the throne, in her plain, clean
frock, with her neat hair and honest
blue eyes, the king felt sure she had
done better than all the rest together.
"Well, little daughter" said he,
"what good deeds can you clamp
"May it please your majesty" she
replied, 81 had no time yesterday to
do any good deeds"
"No time to do any good deeds"
cried the king; "but what did you
do?"
"Why, my mother was very busy,
indeed, so | fed the chickens, and
picked up chips, and swept the porch,
and set the table, and played with the
baby to keep him STILL
"Good!" said the king. "But
didn't you wish to try for the price,"
ooh, very much" said she.
"There was something that | wanted
very much, but l had to give it up,
for | was too busy. And l don't
think | know how to do good deeds
anyhow"
"But I think you do" said the
king; "and am going to give you
the prize. So my little girl, what is
it you want so much?"
At this she blushed and stammered,
quite overcome with surprise. And
it was only because of her great de-
sire that she managed at last to say,
very softly: "May it please your
majesty, wanted a little wagon for

Tales of King Kriskross.


Selected
King Kriskross had just come home
from the royal races. There had been
gala time, but he was not quite sat
isfed. He had seen the trials of
speed, trials of strength and trials of
skill, and these he liked, but he had
seen a great many things that he did
not like at all. And now he was
thinking it all over.
His kingdom was not large. You
might easily have walked around it
between sunrise and sunset of the
shortest day. So he knew all his
subjects well, and took fatherly in
terest in every one of them.
"I'm getting tired of all this" he
said to himself that day. "We have
trials of skill; but how do men use
their skill? They make the most of it
to cheat and fool each other. We
have trials of strength, but the strong
impose upon the weak. We have
trials of speed, but the swift are not
helpful to the slow. I'll have no
more such nonsensel I'll have a trial
of good deeds, and see if that will
set people to thinking in the right
way, I'll give whatever the winner
may choose for prize, and let all try
for it little and big"
So King Kriskross summoned her.
aid, and his great offer was duly pro-
claimed forthwith. A certain day was
set for the trial, and on the next all
the people were to assemble at the
palace, aud one by one were to be
admitted, to tell the king what good
they had done. When this day came,
the king heard many queer stories.
One said he had searched the king
dom over, and could not find any
good deed to do.
"H'm!" said the king. eff you
had mended your garments somewhat,
it would have been better than moth
ing"
Another owned that he had seen
many little things to do, but had hur-
red on all day in search of some
great thing worthy to win the prize.
Stupid" cried the king. "Not
to know that you could have come to
the great only by way of the little"
One declared that he had given half
his property in aims.
"And if | award the prize to you,
what is you choice?" asked the king.
"May it please your majesty" he
said, eagerly, lit is my dearest wish
to possess your castle"
(Which you well know is worth one
hundred times all you have given,"
said the king. "The prize is not
yours"
And so it went on all day. King
Kriskross repented having offered a
prize for good deeds, for he saw that
