To Remove the Electric Appliances
From the city Hall.

At Tuesday nights council session the
city fathers allowed the A. j. Anderson
company ten days In which to remove
their very inefficient gas and electric
light fixtures from the city hall. secre-
tary Montgomery has already given
them official notice and unless At Is
done In this time they will be re-
moved by the city.
The city was to pay 5000 for this
business, but from the first all have
freely expressed the opinion that II
was the worst that was ever offered
the public, especially for n building
as nice as the city hall The light In
the council chamber last night was
30 dim that the mayor could hardly be
seen. The city has had
enough OF such lights and propose now
TO either do without or have something
better.

40 pounds Of bran from the Fort
