minutes work at their desks. And
when the abseDtees are all counted
up, it will be found that not more

three bills were introduced authoriz-

Municipal Ice Houses Proposed


Municipal Ice Houses Proposed.
New Nation.
This not weather is q mighty good
time to boom the idea of city or town
ice houses, to be run at cost by every
municipality which has q pu blic
water supply aud reservoir. Ice,
during the summer weather, IL re
garded as almost as great q necessity
as water, and it Is nonsense for q
municipality which supplies the
people with water from public res
ervoir not to supply them likewise
with Ice from the same reservoir. The
fact that the propriety of q public
water supply should have been gen.
orally admitted aud public water ser.
vice generally introduced, while the
idea of a public supply of the same
water III its frozen state should appar-
emily have occurred to nobody, is q
curious illustration OF the illogicality
of our mental processes. o. course, a
public ice supply should he like the
water supply, at cost, and the relief
from the extortion of the ice man
would be very substantial help, es-
peclslly to the poor. who now to q
considerable extent, have to get along
without ice Oh account of the ex-
pense.

Street Car Difficulty.

Sunday night w. F. Kelsey seated
himself in street Car on North
Flores street, intending to go south
to his destination near the Arkansas
Pass depot. When the conductor, w.
G Jemison, made his fare collections,
he charged the 10 cent rate aud the
passenger protested against paying
that amount, stating that accord
ing to the city ordinance he was
compelled to pay only cents
up TO IL O'Clock. The man paid the
amount after some argument and
went to his home. Yesterday after
noon he bad Jemison arrested on the
charge of overcharging passengers
after II O'Clock at night. The case
came up before the recorder this
morning and was continued until to-
morrow, as the city witness, Kelsey,
did not make his appearance.
The court room was well filled with
citizens, eager to hear what DISPOSE
ton would be made OF the case. Many
comments were heard around the
court room and the termination will
be anticipated with a great deal of
anxiety.

Potato Vines Initiating Lemon Trees

Potato Vines Initiating Lemon Trees.
From the Visalia Call Times.
]. w. Z. Pogue brought into Visslis
this morning q remarkable freak Of
nature in the shape of q potato vine
upon which were growing potatoes In
all stages of development from the
size of q mart BILE to one as large as the
average Early Rose. The vine was
discovered in Mr. Pogue's lemon
grove. The seed planted was Of the
Early Rose variety, and some of the
POTATOES will be planted out to see if
they will reproduce. When the vine
was pulled up few small potatoes
were found at the root. but on the
vine there must have been 100. The
only explanation Mr.. Pogue can offer
is that the potsto must have thought
it to be it's duty to produce lemons, as
it was surrounded by that fruit, and
that it made an honest effort in that
direction.

It's your own fault if you are behind

was about all whole family could afford,
and when the purchase of clock was al
most as serious a matter as the purchase
of house is now. There isn't anything
very formidable about the purchase of a

is their cheapnecs, variety and excel
