The committee appointed at Wednesday
nights meeting of the council to wait upon
Alderman Duncan and ask for the with

out its mission yet, because DR.. Duncan is
absent from the city on business. AS soon
as he returns the committee will make its
call and endeavor to persuade DR.. Duncan
to remain member of the board.
Some of his close personal friends Say
that while DIR. Duncan will appreciate the
courtesy of the council in the matter, he
will adhere to his original purpose and
insist upon the acceptance of his resigna-
tion.
1t is understood that there is some opposi-
ton to the idea Of electing Mr.. T. A.
Folliard to I'LL the vacancy. The argument
of his friends that he should be- given the
honor in view of the fact that he was the
only man defeated on the McDonough
ticket and had borne the brunt OF the fight

to exert strong influence in MIR. Folliard's
favor, but the tendency Of some OF the

other diseases.

Natural and Artificial Dryness of
Champagne.

Natural dryness and the smallest percent
age Of alcohol constitute the purest and
most wholesome champagne, as compared
with artificial and spirtuous dryness, which
admits of higher percentage of sugar in
the wine, while giving a dryer but false
taste, as is the case with several of the So
called ''brut" wines. BY chemical analysis
of Prof. h. Ogden Doremus, G. H. Mumms
Extra Dry contains, in a marked degree,
less alcohol than other prominent
brands, and he recommends 1t, not only for
its purity, but as the most wholesome cham
payne, These properties and its remark
able quality and natural dryness have made
it the most popular, as IS evidenced by GUS
tom house statistics of 1892, showing G.. H.
Mumm's Extra Dry imports to be $3.50
cases, being more than one-fifth of the en-
tire Importation and over 5000 cases more
than Of any other brend.-ad.

The Sanitary Board Adopts Precau.
tionary Measures.
The sanitary board, at its meeting yes
terday, decided to strictly quarantine, in
the discretion Of the board, all houses in
which scarlet fever prevails and allow no

there is no cause for alarm.
