GALLAGHER'S WARDS.


Henry Soule petitions for leave TO
move wooden building from the Guy
line between Portland and Deering, on
behring's bridge, through Green to Ken
nebec, and thence to Carleton street.
In the aldermen these petitions gave
rise to considerable discussion as to the
interference of such movings with elec-
trio wires in the city.
City Electrician Mason was called ana
the matter was considered at some length.
Mr.. Washington Libby, who was given
permission at the last meeting to move q
building, appeared. He said ne haa
moved buildings and the electrical COM
panies usually put on crews and removed
the wires as he came to them.
After this the petitions of Soule and
West were granted.
Hon. Chas F. Libby appeared for the
Portland Railroad to remonstrats against !
the detention to street cars that would
result from the moving proposed by MI.
Washington Libby.
1t was decided that Mr.. Washington
Libby should give a bond of $4,000 and
Messrs. Soule and West $500 each.

OUR DANGER.
Look Out for the Spring Of 1898 /!
FoREwARNED IS F0REARMED.

The Hatcheries of Cholera, and What is
To Be Seen There-If the Disease
Breaks Out in New York Where Will 1t
End?
There are few things which have never
come to pass which seem surer OF COM
ing than Cholera this spring. Three
well known physicians, one IN Boston,
two in New York, have said this. re-
cent despatch from Hamburg IN the
daily papers says:
SIT is feared that the seeds of death
sowed last summer will yield fruitful
harvest in the spring.
There is no lodging this dr. ad disease
in the s,ring and summer OF 1898.
The country is ripe for it.
Our lax immigration laws will be
wholly responsible for the death rate
through Cholera during 1893.
For wears the United States has been
F,1ropess sewer. All the scum of her
human tides have been SKINNED off and
ladled to our shores.
Austria Bavaria, Poland, Russia,
Turkey, Italy, China, these and many
other foreign countries send the rag tag
and bob-tail, the vicious, the depraved,
the vile, the diseased, and the utterly
lost to our shores. This they have been
doing for years with the utmost impuni-
ty.
AS famous New York physician re-
Gently remarked to the writer.
GLOW can we escape Cholera next
wear? Of course, it won't break out up
on 9Th Avenue, but it will eventually
reach there, and all over the land. 1t
will break out over on Forsyth, and Di-
vision, and Hester streets, and the
Bowery, and Cherry Hill, and the Five
Points. and Roosevelt street. Those
points are points of dirt and vermin.
That is where Cholera in this country
will break out. God knows where it
will end"
This is an awful but timely warning
Cholera is deadly, that we know.
The way to escape the frightful vista
ton is to be prepared for it.
Get your house-that is your body-in
perfect order
Purify your system.
Cleanse and enrich your blood.
Remember that the Boston Globe said
editorially:
"Contageous diseases seldom attack
perfectly healthy people. Persons whose
vitality is low and whose general health
is impaired, are the HTSt 10 Idil preyS 70
Dr.. John B. Bray of Bridgton, in re
Spouse to inquiry, said;
Certainly, people should now look
sharply after their health. If Cholera
reaches our shores everyone should be
prepared physically, SO far as possible, to
Withstand it. We should put our bod
les in good condition, as well as our
premises. If the blood is foul, the liver
clogged, and the stomach out of order,
such person is far more likely to be
among the first victims than others in
good health"
He also Endorses, as the ideal remedy
for purifying the blood and arousing Vi
tality, KINGS SARSAPARILLA.
1t is the ounce of prevention that most
concerns the people now, and it is GER
tainly sensible advice that recommends
us to put our bodies in good order as

ARGUING THE BENSON CASE.
The Opposing Lawyers Battle for
Verdict in the Drainage Case.

When the Superior Court opened this
morning, Attorney William s. Hilles
argued for one hour for the plaintiff in
the case Of Anton Benson VS. the Mayor
and Council of Wilmington for 81 500
DANCES. He claimed that he bad
show 10y positive testimony that
his client had been injured TO that extent
in money and irreparably in health and
convenience by the city's neglecting to
furnish proper drainage TO the street.
The grade Of the street aud pavements
was raised and the entire street was
6lled in until it threw all the storm
water into Benson's cellar For two
months he could not use It and his family
became afflicted with rheumatism, his
wife seriously So
City Solicitor Charles NJ Curtis. for
the defense, contenied that the city
authorities owed not one cent to the
plaintiff for damages TO his property.
This man Benson, he said, had purchased
and built upon lot on Thirteenth
street between Heald and Thatcher,
which, he had proven, was nothing
but shaking marsh land at
the time. That his foundations
had settled below grade and
according TO the natural drainage Of the
ground and not because Of any artificial
drains placed there by the city, his
property was flooded. Citizens who
built upon adjoining properties took
great care TO have their lots filed in aud
even elevated with new and solid earth
and then placed skilled builders upon
the property.
Mr.. Hilles made the closing argument
for the plaintiff and asked that the jury
not reduce the amount of damages one
cent. This afternoon Judge Cullen
charged the jury briefly, carefully weigh
ing the important evidence submitted by
both sides
