A SEWER ROUNDUP.

Mayor Clement, City Engineer Jackmsu
and Councilmen Martin and Buckridge
took a drive Yesterday morning south and
held short interview with the mouth OF
the sewer That part of the anatomy OF
the animal is reported getting along nicely
and has encouraging use Of itself They
examined a number of the man holes and
the four leading mains and as far as could
be learned were in conformity with the
contract and showed the sewer service all
right. 1t is thought the stencil arising
from many places will be overcome as
soon as the flush tanks are set TO working.
1t is believed that this part of the work,
in fact all of it, will be completed by the
first of next week which is Councilman
Buckridge's prophesy.
Councilman Martin describes the trip as
a most pleasant one. The air was simply
delightful. especially on the elevated road
on Market, aud the scenery simply grand.
Far to the east could be seen Butler coun-
ty with its rolling prairies dotted with
houses and live stock, while College Hill
down below appeared but a gentle swell
out of the great river valley. To the west
the bones of the much hunted
buffalo could be seen glistening in
the bright sunlight The elevated drive,
according to Mr. Martin, was simply de-
lightful. and any one making the trip
should not fail to take in that feature, and
would forever applaud the expenditure
that it called for Mr.. Martin says he has
many things to do before April Among
others, be wants the council to buy seed
corn and give it tothose agriculturally dis
posed in his ward. He wants several hun
dred bushels of the early variety distrib-
uted on the proposition that it will be
planted; but if his constituents want to
eat it Just before the spring election he
don't care, but none shall be used for food
after the election.

THE wOMAN'S COUNCIL.

To the Editor Of the Eagle:
From the first call made looking toward
the formation Of a uuion among all the
woman's societies of our city, for organ
lied cooperation whenever it became neces-
sary, Wichita being the first and only city
to have such a local organization, you
have kindly given us all the space asked
for at various times to bring this subject
before the people, for which kindness and
courtesy honorable mention was made at
the annual meeting, with request that
later on you would reprint the preamble
and notes of instruction from the National
Woman's Council, which cOnvenes tri-
ennially, and for the second time in Wash
ingron city, the latter part of February.
All that will be required OF
societies becoming auxiliary To the cOun-
ell is the election of delegate so serve
during the year and the payment of 81 per
year by each such society.
Officers elected for the year were:
President-Mrs. Lora r. Priddy.
First Vice-President-Mrs. ;. l.. Car
penter.
Second Vice-President - Mrs, Prof.
Laughlin.
Recording Secretary-Mrs. Anna NJ
Tayler
Treasurer-Mrs Irene Rikards.
Corresponding Secretary-Mrs. Hersey.
There are several important measures
under consideration which requires the
combined wisdom of the many.
A committee composed of Mrs. Dyer,
Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Clark were appointed
to visit each society of women in the city
and present plainly the object Of the Wo-
mans Council.
A resolution was passed calling for the
annual meeting on the second saturday IN
each December and other meetings sub
ject to call Of president.
All accounts incurred in the work OF the
two years, including the conducting OF
the "Opeu Door" had been met, and a
small amount paid into the hands OF the
new treasurer.

4. Regulating the grades and standard
of teachers certificates.
Mr.. n. B. Smith of Minnesota township,
favored the plan of distributing the rail
road tax pro rata, where the township has
voted bonds for building a railroad. He
thinks it unjust that one or two districts
should receive all the railroad tax, as is
the case under the present system.
Mr. Park Massey of Minneha township,
conceded in the same opinion, and added
that where a county voted railroad bonds
thar the taxes arising should be dis
tributed pro rata throughout the county.
Mr.. O'Bren defended the present town
ship system. That the fault lay not so
much with the system as with the officers
and patrons in the performance Of their
duties. He desired a law passed that
would place every school house in the
geographical center of the district.
The meeting was very interesting and
profitable Nearly every township in the
county was represented. After adopting
some appropriate resolutions the associa-
ton adjourned

The Altar Chapter of st. Johns Guild,
with the St. Andrews Brotherhood, are
making preparations for decorating the
church at Christmas. They will see that
suitable tree is provided on which to
hang the silver dollars, and hope that the
members and friends of the parish will see
that an abundance of dollars are pro
vided to hang thereon. Money, (you
know, doesn't grow on trees" Let's
prove the contrary to be true this year by
having tree SO plentifully laden that it
will cure sore eyes. All dollars are ex,
pected to be in by Sunday. Should they
come later they will be accepted

CHRISTMAS CAROL.
To be sung by the children of the On
tartan Sunday school:

To be sung by the children of the Uni
tartan Sunday school:
When / view the mother holding
In her arms the holy boy,
Thousand blissful thoughts unfolding
Touch my heart with sweetest JOY.
with her babe the hours beguillng,
Mary's soul in transport lives;
Her dear son, upon her smiling,
Thousand kisses fondly gives.
See the mystic look Of wonder
On her face calm and mild;
Many things her heart doth ponder
As she thinks upon her child,
He upon her arm enthroned.
Seems indeed an infant king:
With the coming glory crowned,
With the thorns the years shall bring.
See his lips already burdened
With the prophecy and prayer;
See his hair already wetted
With the baptism he must bear.
Israel's dear saint and prophet
May thy life our hearts inspire,
And the conservation Of 1t
Lift our thoughts forever higher.
