Prof. George B. Frankforter, of the

The real estate committee reported
on the proposed purchase of the OK

city was renewed careful investiga-

A squabble ensued over F. N. Sta
cy's report on the delinquent tax
question: Maj. Bassett who favors
the abolition of the penalty clause,
claiming that Stacy had misrepre-
scented the action of the committee.
Mr.. Stacy recommended that the
board favor the proposed changes in
the tax laws except that portion which
referred to the penalty clause. Maj.
Bassett moved to amend by including
a section resembling penalties on prop
erty that became delinquent on June
l, 1894, providing the taxes with per
cent be paid before the first of next
May
Mr.. Stacy would not hear to this,
and denounced the measure as vicious
and retroactive. He said so per cent
of the delinquent list was made up of
speculative property, and at least 60
per cent was in the names of seventy
five or eighty individuals and corpora
tons which had been identified with
the pushing of bond issues and with
opposition to reduction of assess

Dull Days.

Dull Days.
The monotony of the park board was
relieved somewhat yesterday by the
reading of a very unusual communica-
ton, which created sensation.
Shotly after o'clock Attorney C. J.
lockwood came in and handed a docu-
ment to President Folwell. The for
Misunderstanding paper proved to be a
letter from George S. Garfield on the
Sutherland park matter. From the
contents Of the letter the board in
ferred that Mr.. Garfield wished to sell
his services as a lobbyist either for or
against the Howard charter bill in
consideration of action on Sutherland S
claim.
Mr.. Garfield confidently asserted in
his communication that he could
knock out the charter act'' if the
board saw fit to come to his terms. He
also gave the attorney hint to wire
early in order that no time might be
lost
Mr.. Garfield magnanimously gave the
board it's choice of either settling the
Sutherland matter on his terms or of
having the claimant and himself throw
their magic influence for the Howard
bill, as well as commence a wolf cam
paign against the board in the columns
of the Tribune, Penny Press and Pho
neer Press.
A very large smile spread over the
commissioners faces as the reading of
Garfield letter progressed, after which
Mr.. Rockwood's very dignified and
freezing declination was read and
placed on file along with Canfield's en-
terprising epistle.

Presence of Mind Prevents a
.-a Holocaust.

A bad fire, which must have been
attended with fatal results, was avert
ed yesterday at Ashbury hospital by
the presence of mind of the head
nurse, Miss johnson, and Dr.. Smith.
Shortly before ii o'clock the roof of
the building was discovered to be on
fire. The most intense excitement pre-
vailed for few moments, but DR..
Smith and Miss Johnson, after turn
ing in an alarm, set a good example of
GOODNESS to the nurses and others and
at once organized a systematic plan
for removing the patients. Outsiders
gave prompt assistance, and in a short
time all of the patients, about twenty
in number, and some sixteen nurses
were safely out of the building and on
their way to st. Barnabas' hospital.
The patients were taken from their
cots, wrapped in heavy blankets and
placed in the custody of two nurses
each.
The building is three-and-ahalf-
story brick structure. and the fire
originated in the roof over the laun-

ly from water, as the entire building
was flooded. The insurance on the
building amounted to 1880, held by

The British Parliament has voted a
credit for the construction of a canal
from Heyst to .Bruges and the construc-
ton OF a seaport at the latter point.
The reason for this is stated to be the
fact that Antwerp Is found to be suf-
fering from being too far up the river
as compared with Cuxhaven, Bremen
haven, Copenhagen, Havre and some
other ports that offer easy access from
the sea. Bruges is less than ten miles
from HeySt In a straight line, and it is
thought that numerous vessels would
put into Bruges which would not be
allowed the time needed for the trip to
Antwerp. The saving of time is a
vastly more important matter now than
1t was a few years ago, and a port
which then was regarded as we'll To-
Gated Is not necessarily so to-day. All
the ports Of Northern Europe have been
more or less improved, and some Of
them still are the scenes Of great ex-
penditures, the design in all cases being
to afford to steamers of the largest class
h facilities for arriving, discharging,
loading and departing to the open ocean
with the greatest economy of time and
labor. In the United States the con
struction and improvement of interior
waterways is attracting much more at
tention than the improvement of our
seaports, but the latter is not neglected,
and there is room for further exertion
in this particular, especially in the port
Of New York.

San Francisco Argonaut: The dis
eases which objecting physicians have
so far discovered as the result Of bi-
cycling are HYPNOSIS b~icycliasis, or BIZ
cycle hump, gaStritiS, cerebro-spinal
meningitis, swelling Of the thyroid
gland, and exophthalmic goitre, or pro-
trusion Of the eyeballs. This last is
probably what is popularity known as
''pOp-eye." We very much doubt
whether these diseases can be traced
to the bicycle. If continual Earring
causes meningitis, there are many
other ways in which the disease can be
acquired. The men who drive wagons
and buggies all day over badly paved
city streets receive infinitely more jar
ring than the bicyclist does. The char
ioteers who guide the springless coal
cart over the cobbles should all be in
the acute stages Of meningitis. If it is
caused by jar. And for the matter Of
that, the pedestrian who confines his
locOmOtion to the legs that God gave
him, receives more jar than either.
Every time the heel touches the ground
a shock is communicated through the
spinal column directly to the base of
the brain. Moreover, expert bicyclists
instinctively put their weight on the
pedals, instead of the seat, thus mini
MIXING the jar. These diseases are not
new. and the bicycle is. We fear Il fad
is sweeping over the medical faculty.
The doctors are always conservative,
and are opposed to everything that is
new-eXcept new diseases. When the
humble "love-apple" was christened
the tomato" and accepted by n few
daring people as Il delicious article of
food, there were not wanting medicos
to warn people against it. The doctors
Of our grandfathers' times solemnly
predicted that eating the tomato would
cause bleeding ut the gums. cancer,
and many other ills. Yet several gen
eratiOns have eaten the tomato without
harm, and now even doctors do. SO
will it be with the bicycle. 1t will
break down the intense conservatism
of the medical faculty. Such is the
radicalism of the day, that now even
physicians pay some attention to diet.
And in time they will take to The bi-
cycle, as their cured patients will IL
ready have done.

OF all the various international con

none is more surprisingly gratifying in
It's outcome than the international ath-

their hosts hard work for the victory,

making the British athletes look poor

the growing interest attaching to in

that in coming years these contests

there is nothing to indicate that Amer
