The DRAINAGE CANAL.

The Trustees of the Sanitary
District Wednesday approved plans
and specifications for an additional
five miles OF the channel and the
clerk ordered to advertise for pro-
posals for excavations The bids will
be opened and contracts let Nov. 80.
In right OF way matters the Law De
partment has made good progress.
During the last few months nearly
so per cent. of the land necessary for
the channel between Bridgeport and
the Summit has been obtained by
private purchase at prices eminently
satisfactory. BY the time contracts
are let for the new work in Novem-
Der it is thought the entire right Of
way will have been obtained as far as
Bridgeport. The reach of channel
for which bids are now asked will
bring the drainage canal into the
city limits as far as Corwith, three
miles from Bridgeport.
The plans and specifications, with
a form of contract, were submitted
by Chief Engineer Isham Randolph
and approved. The work to be done
is earth excavation only, and amounts
to 1884, 900 cubic yards. The ma
terial is in the main what is called
boulder clay. The contractor is re-
quired to give $75, 600 bond and to
complete the work on or before Nav
81, 1896. He is required to pay his
faborers at regular intervals and at
least twice month, and is forbidden
to pay them in scrip, checks or other
evidence of Indebtedness, but only in
lawful currency of the United States.
Chairman Kelly of the Special
Committee on Labor, reported that
at the conclusion of work Tuesday
dllCl mum =, 10 ucH were dU WOTk on
river diversion, in the direct en-
ploy of the board, under Agents Nc
Arthur and Harley. These men are
those who were sent to the board by
Col. Rend's committee. The pay
rolls for the first two weeks the men
were employed were approved. They
showed that the men had received in
wages $l5, 731, while for the same
time Agents Macarthur and Harley
drew 1898 for material necessary in
the work, and 81, 122 and 81, 1862 re-
spectively as the Is per cent allowed
them under their contract for the
use OF their equipment
Contracts with h. ID. Smith & Co.
were approved TO build a bridge over
the new channel of the Desplaines at
stephens street, Lemont, and also a
railroad embankment also with

TIMES must be mighty hard among
the Georgia newspaper men. Here
is the Savannah News, for instance.
complaining bitterly because the
chickens roost so high. High
roosts, says the News savagely, "are
an abominatiOn. The large, heavy
hens car only reach their roosts with
difficulty, and they are liable to be
dislodged from their position, thrown
off and injured by the fall Precisely
but when the hens fall off they are
much easier to get at, especially on
very dark nights. OF course it is
difficult, without dark lantern and
a warm plank, to reach the hens that
remain on the high roosts, but a
small, light ladder might be carried,
which would Obviate this difficulty.
1t could be thrown away in case a
strategic retreat became necessary,
and might be utilized as an effective
yet nOiseless weapon against the fam
lily bulldog The News evidently
takes the high r0ost fad too much to
heart. it is an obstacle, it is true,
but one which any Georgia journalist
should be able to SurmOunt.

action has intcrfered with that pecul-

Of Chinese and other undesirable i'm

deriving revenue from the tax on
Chinese, and therefore the howl has
an Official note in it. 1t is TO be

arian Cousin Writes
to 1.-THE Eagle
To Tell About the Honored Career
of Their Grand
father.

KIRKsvILLE, Mo-, Sept 20.-To
the Editor of THE EAGLE: Seeing in
The EAGLE piece copied from the
st. Louis Republican of Sept 13,
over the signature of John f. Darby,
saying that his grandfather was in
the battle of Kings Mountain and
fought under Col. Campbell one hun
dred years ago, ] wish to say there
are other descendants left Of those
heroes who covered themselves with
glory, and led in that victory and
gave that memorable command, "Let
every man load his gun and fight till
he dies" | quote from Collins his
tory Of Kentucky:
Sol. VIM. II. Russell, in whose
honor the county of Russell was
named, was born in the year 1853, in
the county of Culpeper, in the then
province Of Virginia In the year
IVA, young Russell, at the early age
of 10. was engaged with a party I'M
der the command of the illustrious
Daniel Boone in repelling the aggres-
siOnS made upon the settlement by
tribe Of Southern Indians. During
this expedition his comrades, from
his tender age, were compelled to re-
lieve the weight of his rifle by carry
ing his portion Of baggage and pro-
visions" Again: The memorable
battle of Kings Mountain, which
may be considered the most decisive
of the Revolution, burst like meteor
light upon the dropping spirits of
the American army. The immediate
result Of this victory proved an epoch
in the struggle, and has conferred the
boon Of immortality upon the princi-
pal actors
In this glorious contest young
Russell bore valiant and distin-
guished part. He was a lieuten-
ant in the mounted regiment from
Virginia, and, owing to the indispo-
sltion of his captain, led his com
pany in the action. He was, 1t is
believed, the first man in the adj
vance TO reach the summit Of the
mountain. and among the first TO re-
celve "A sword from the yanqushed

Il COME from far away India to tell
you Of the teachings of Christ which
you have read but do not practice. +"
said ii. Dharmapala, Buddhist
scholar, in Unity Church, Chicago.
1t was cheeky. Was it true? Maybe.
But certainly not truer than if Mr..
Milsted should address a gathering
of Buddhists: Il come from far
away America to tell you of the
teachings of Buddha, which you have
read but do not practice" 1t would
have come with greater appropriate
ness from one Of our own preachers
this rcprCof of unchristian living.
From Mr.. Dharmapala it was only
little more sensible than the question
put TO the Buddhist after the lee
ture: "Do all Buddhists lead pure
lives?" All true Buddhists do. said
Mr. Dharmapala. Maybe there were
men and women in Unity Church
who have read, and who practice, ac-
cording TO their lights, the teachings
of Christ Maybe there are Buddhists
in India who preach purity, who lead
pure YES, who live under shady trees,
In the cool caves, on the banks Of
rolling rivers, who do good because IL
is good, who are free Of passion, who
speak temperately, who love the truth

which befell Mr.. Cosgrove at Chicago.
The elevator boy was "skylarking"
when he should have been attending
to his work, and Mr. COsgrove will
suffer the loss Of foot in conse-
quence. There is,no more excuse for
allowing a boy to run an elevator
than there would be for putting him
in charge of locomotive attached to
an express train. Human life is at
stake in both cases, and men of ex-
perience are required in both posi-
tiOns.

y PRECEDENT is likely to be eStab-
lished as to the legal right of process
sions to occupy the Streets obstruct-
ing travel and business. Recently
the gala professions of the Bohemians
and the Foresters were on the streets
of Chicago for hours, stopping the car
lines, traffic teams, and even carriages
with passengers between the rail-
roads and the hotels. c. A. Vinson,
of New York, who held ticket on
on eastern-bound limited train, was
prevented by a policeman from cross.
ing the line Of one of the professions
and he missed his train. His ticket.
Of coul sc, was made worthless. He
will seek legal redress if he can find
out who is responsible for the loss and
damage which he suffered. Mr.. Vim
son represents a cause. He should
have sympathy and encouragement.
