Some fifteen years or 80 ago, when Robert
Louis Stevenson made one among the little
colony of art students and Others at Bar
bizon, a discussion arose as to who, out OF
all their number, could best be spared by
the world at large-he, in short, who never
would be missed by the general public.
There was some difficulty about coming to
decision, so, finally, every one present
inscribed the name of his candidate on a
slip Of paper. The slips were folded, placed
in hat, and, on being opened and read.

AssEssxENT AGAINST BLOCK. 500

At present every lot facing on any street and
wing within 10 feet of the street improved is
assessed, and fraction of lot that has no
street front escapes assessment altogether. A
shallow lot pays as much as a deep one ii IL has
the same frontage. Mr.. Bagiey's bill provides
for an equable area assessment upon fractions
of lots within the 120-foot limit whether facing
a street or not.
The subject of the proper disposition that
should be made of funds collected in excess of
the cost for street improvement also came up.
Mr.. Bagley thought that the difficulty could be
obviated By putting of the assessment until
after the actual cost Of the improvement had
been ascertained.
Mr.. Shipley proposed amendment proyid-
ing for the preliminary movements in securing
a street improvement, which was laid on the
table until the mex. meeting.
After spending nearly the whole evening upon
the discussion of the assessment subject the
committee decided to defer further elaboration
until the next meeting.
Mr.. Hall proposed an amendment to the char
ter doing away with the requirement for pub
fishing the city notices in two papers. He
thought that one paper was enough to have as
al official paper
Mr.. Bagley thought that the city could better
afford to cut down in the amount of matter
rather than to reduce the number Of papers.
Mr.. Hall thought that Mr.. Bagley's plan
would involve great changes all through the
charter; changes that could hardly be made.
The chairman finally ordered that the amend
ment should lag on the table and be brought up
in its proper order.
An amendment was adopted making quorum
for the transaction of business at joint meet
ling OF the TWO houses legal only when a quorum
of each separate branch wa present

OHIO IRON MANUFACTURER.
He Talks Of the Competition From tn,
Southern Producers.

Colonel NJ. Churchill, president of the Ohio
Iron Company, OF GAINESVILLE. is 10 the Rainier
hotel with his niece, Miss NJ. L. Pratt. They
are on their way home from trip around the
world. They have made rather quick journey,
as they left home May 7, Of this year. Their route
was to Liverpool and then by steamer down to
Gibraltar and through the Mediterranean, and
on along the south coast of Asia to China, to
Japan, and across the Pacific By Canadian Pa
cifc steamer. They have spent fifty days OF
their time the water.
Colonel Churchill commanded the Twenty
seventh Ohio infantry during the war. They
saw hard service in the Army OF the Tennessee,
and marched through seven Southern states.
Their campaigning began in Missouri. The
colonel was in numerous engagements. and in
the battle OF Atlanta lost one-third OF his regi-
ment, which by that time had been cut down
to about 400 men. Since the war Colonel
Churchill has been manufacturing iron at
GAINESVILLE.
''The Southern iron producers are formidable
rivals in one way" he said last night, "for they
have abundance of ore and coal, and they can
secure cheap labor. But then we have the
great advantage that our market-and a good
one il isis all around us, while the Southern
producer pays from 81 to s. ton to get his iron
on the market
