Mr.. DONOVAN'S REPORT
An Exhaustive Report on Diff
ferent Eastern Sewer
age Systems
What the City Council Did at
Their Regular Session
Yesterday
A New Health Ordinance is
Passed and Several
Recommended

The city council met in regular ses-
sion yesterday afternoon, Mayor Will
son in the chair and Councilman Oar
ling, Christopher, Monahan, Allerton
and KinghOrn present. The minutes
Of the last regular meeting were read
and approved.
A petition was read from fifty-One
citizens protesting against the pro-
posed improvement of Tenth street.
The petition was referred to the com
mttee on streets and public property.
City Engineer Allerton submitted a
plan of Thistle's opera house, showing
the best method Of constructing fire
escapes in the building. Referred to
the committee on water, fire and light
and the fire warden.
The chief Of the fire department and
the fire warden recommended that
three hydrants be placed in the Third
addition, one at the intersection Of
Twenty-second and Knox, one at
Twenty-fourth and Douglas and one
at Twenty-fOurth and Broadway. He
also recommended one TO be placed at
the corner Of Thirteenth and Broad.
way. The chief also advised the
purchase of a team Of horses for the
use of the department.
The street committee reported that
the improvement Of Bennett avenue
had been completed according TO con
tract.
The executive committee recon-
mended the payment Of the following
bills:
Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1891-07-30

constructed, TO connect the same
Herewith, was placed on final passage
and carried
An ordinance providing for fire es-
capes 10 be placed on certain buildings
and providing penalties for failure TO
provide the same, was referred TO the
judiciary committee.
The city clerk stated that new
plat had been filed OF certain portions
of South Fairhayen, and that no OBJ
jections had been filed against the
vacation OF a portion OF the plat. The
plat was accordingly ordered vacated
Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1891-07-30
/. L. Mccoy, final estimate,

Warrants were ordered drawn for
the above amounts.
The city clerk reported that Barrett
& Co. had filed bond for liquor IL
cense, and general discussion Of
license matters ensued.
An exhaustive report, published
elsewhere in today's HERALD, was
read from j. j. Donovan, chairman Of
the committee on sewers, in which the
result OF his observations in Eastern
cities are fully and cOmprehensiyely set
forth. Report was referred 10 the
sewerage committee and city engi-
neer.
The chairman OF the judiciary com
mIttee stated that the report Of the
city treasurer for the quarter ending
June 30 had been received, and the
committee were granted further time
in which TO report.
The city attorney stated that he had
either seen or written TO every party
owning property on the proposed
| Donovan avenue extension TO the city
limits, and there would practically be
no trouble in securing a right-Of-way
| except from Twenty-iirst street TO the
| Padden claim. Several property own
ers could not be located, and there was
an objection from Mr.. Ware TO the eX.
tension through his property. In
reference TO the right-Of-way he said
that city councils had no right TO con
denim property for street purposes
No provision had been made by the
state legislature to enable cities TO do
this, but it had been suggested that the
urgency Of this extension was so great
that the city might appropriate the
land and await the action Of the state
legislature. This could possibly be
done as there was little likelihood OF
an injunction being obtained TO pre-
vent it.
Judge Lindsay and B. +. Musser APP
peared before the council and address
sed the board in reference TO the pro
posed extension. The matter was
finally referred TO the committee tC
confer with Mr.. Musser, and the com
mittee to hold special meeting later
and report.
The street commissioner was in
structed TO render the city marshal
any aid he may require in the con
struction Of the pound near the engine
house.
A. Aiken asked transfer OF saloon
license to the McKechnie building
Referred to license committee.

Do Not Agree With Judge Ewing.

1t isn't likely that many people will be
found in the borough of Esplen who will
agree with Judge Ewing that it should be
merged with McKee's Rocks Mr.. j.
Schmid states that borough government if
honestly conducted cannot be expensive in
Esplen. 1t has no streets to keep in order,
save few, all combined less than a mile in
length, for the main one is kept in order by
the street railway company and the turn
pike company. As street-making usually
costs about as much as all other municipal
government and frequently much more,
Esplen ought to grow fat. 1t has some
board walks to maintain, school and con-
stable and that is about all the government
expenses entailed. On the other hand the
expense of street maintenance in Mckee's
Rocks, If it ever became a borough will be
the important item. Therefore the streets
have swallowed stone with apparently little
benefit, but this years covering bids fair to
last for some time.

A Dream of Happiness

May be followed by a morning of "La
Grippe" Easily, and why? Because the
)draught from a partly closed window, an
open transom connected with a windy entry
in hotel, may convey to your nostrils and
lungs the death-dealing blast. Terrible and
swift are the inroads made by this new de-
stroyer. The medicated alcoholic principle
in Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will check
the dire complaint. "A persistence in this
absolutely checkmate the dangerous NAL
ady. Unmedicated alcoholic stiInulants are
of little or no value. The just medium is
the Bitters Not less efficacious is it in cases
of malaria, biliousness, constipation,
rheumatism, dyspepsia and kidney trouble.
The weak are usually those upon whom
disease fastens first Invigorate with the

WELSHMEN'S BIG PROFITS.
stance Cited Where Such a Return Was
Made by Timed Plate Maker Last

They Make From 33 to 45 Per Cent-An In
stance Cited Where Such Return Was
Made by Timed Plate Maker Last
Year.
A statement made recently by "Judge"
James Arkell, in an interview with a
DISPATCH reporter, to the effect that Welsh
timed plate makers reaped profit of from 33
to As per cent, andthat thebusiness was con-
trolled by trust of the largest makers,
was received with great deal of incredulity
by some local iron and steel men. They
hint that such statements are made to "help
along the cause" and that no such profits
as these are made in Wales, or out of it, in
any branch of the iron and steel business.
Mr.. Arkell told the DISPATCH reporter
what he himself had learned from one of the
Welsh makers. A gentleman now living
in Pittsburg, who at one time was engaged
in the manufacture oftinned plate in Wales,
furnishes THE DISPATCH with figures
which show that such profits are really
made in Wales. This gentleman has infor-
nation from Wales that one maker there
who has plant of four mills, made $780, 900
in the last II months. This maker is re-
puted as being keen buyer and good
seller, but he is not so very much more so
than his competitors as to make his profits
much proportionately greater than theirs.
''You can get some idea of this particu-
lar makers profts,'' said the gentleman
referred to, ''by taking the cost of plant
of two mills and multiplying it by two.
Here are the figures on plant Of two mills:
Engine, 26x6O inches, $4,000; two mills,
$1,000; co d mill. including doublers sheers
and shearer shears, $4,000; four turning
pots, $4,000; auxiliary engines and
machinery, $1,000; three boilers,
Galloway type, 25 feet by
feet, $1,000; five furnaces, $500; mill
and annealing furnaces, $500; foundations,
5000; buildings, $4,000; total cost of plant
of two mills, $50, 200. A plant of four mills
will have double the capacity, but will not
cost double what a two mill plant does; but
supposing it did, you have the cost of this
Welsh makers plant at say 100000. 1t
requires capital of $4,000 to run the
smaller plant, and we will just double that
too, thus making the total capital invested
in this four-mill plant S160,0OO Well, this
maker made S120, 900 lass year out of his
plant o" 33 per cent. Any man who cannot
see the money that lies ip timed plate MAX
ing in this country under the present condi-
tions, is hopelessly blind and not deserving
of the good the gods sends him. That there
are men who can see this is evident by the
number of plaTt is under construction or
consideration. By this time next year their

alone.

STOPPED A REGIMENT FOR A CHEW.
The next morning (Christmas) it was
showing, but the boys were cheerful. When
we were saddling our horses soldier,
known as "Crazy Jake" came into our
company and asked for chew of tobacco.
The soldier pointed to Colonel at the head
of the regiment in the lead of column,
and said: 'That Colonel is clever fellow.
He chews the best weed in the market ="
Crazy Jake galloped his horse across
meadow toward the place, and made mo-
tion for the Colonel to stop. The Colonel,
thinking that Jake was an orderly and had
a message from the General, halted his regi-
ment.
AS soon as Jake got in speaking distance,
the Colonel asked Jake what he wanted.
Jake said: "Colonel, have you any good
chewing tobacco?''
We arrived at Winchester on the night of
the 9th, and went into camp. New Years
morning, 1866, was clear and cold. Most of

quarters. We called our camp "Camp Rus

distinguished General Russell, commander
of the Sixth Army Corps, who was killed on
that ground few months before.
A QUILT NOT ENOUGH TO MARRY ON.
Henry was not to be found that day. Some
of the boys of his company said that he left
camp quite early that morning. He took
the quilt with him. He returned that
evening and brought the quilt back. Some
of the boys asked him if he was married.
''No," he said, 81 got so badly scared at
Liberty Mills that I've given up the no.
ton The boys didn't believe him. The
next day some of them rode over to the
girls house and asked her why she did not
marry Henry. She said: "What! Marry
that crazy Dutchman? I'd like to catch
myself marrying such duck. L had no
notion of it. About two weeks ago, when
he was guarding our house, he asked me to
marry him. thought he was only in fun,
and 1 told him yes. Yesterday he came
back carrying red quilt, and said that he
was now ready to be married. Marry
man with only red quilt? Wouldn't
like to see myself do such thing"

ROOM FOR TRAFFIC,
Rivermen Favor the Proposed Bridge, but
Under Conditions

Rivermen Favor the Proposed Bridge, but
Under Conditions.
Captain WV. O'NeiI said yesterday that
the opposition of the river operators to the
proposed Twenty-second street bridge
should not be misconstrued. He, for one,
haG no objection to the construction of the
bridge. On the contrary, he thought it was
a necessity; it would lessen the hauling dis
tance between that end of the south city
and the city proper, and it would be good
property. What the rivermen protested
against was the undue and unnecessary in
reference with the waterway of the bridge
as at present planned. The law regulated
the manner in which rivers should be
spanned The designers of this proposed
bridge sought to disregard the law by not
allowing due passage for river craft. The
design could be altered to suit all require
ments by increasing the cost, and this
should be done, and would be.done if the
rivermen had any strength LETT. He thought
Colonel Merrill would report against the
design as 1t now was, and would see that the
river traffic was not interfered with.
