There was a special meeting of both

make plans for the proper attending
to it. While they Were on the subject
they also talked of the safety of the
other bridges in the city. and they will
probably be examined and strength
ened None of the four are in good
condition and should be attended TO at
once. 1t will be cheaper in the end for
the city if a change We're made. as any
injury done to persons using the
bridges will result in a suit for damages
against the city.
The changes necessary would amount
to about $4,000 and bonds for this
amount might be issued by the city.
At the same time the sewer extension
will be very great. and whether bonds
for the whole sum will be issued is a
question that the people will proba bly,
be given a chance to vote on. II is
thought that the subject will meet with
general approval. and as it is necessary
will undoubtedly be made.

GEORGE LOWERY ARRESTED.
Did Not support His Wife in n Proper
Manner.

An interesting case was held before
Alderman Bunnell in which the de-
fendant was placed under bail to keep
the peace and to appear at court.
There were really two cases. The
first one was in which Mrs. George
Lowery was charged with threatening
to take the life of her mother-in-law.
Considerable evidence was heard on
both sides, and large crowd listened
to the war of words. The alderman,
upon hearing both sides, finally placed
the defendant under bond to keep the
peace and to appear at court.
After this was disposed of Mrs.
Lowery had her husband, George, ar
rested for non-support. She said that
she was obliged to care for herself and
that her husband did nothing to help
sustain her. Mr.. Lowery entered bail
for his appearance at court at Alder
man Jones. j. ]. Lowery becoming his

The guests, for it isu't often Japa
rcse woman are invited to public
of any kind, or if an in
vitation is sent to a man and his
wife, he accepts the invitation
while his wife stays at home.
Well the exercises commenced
by the singing of their national
song; this was followed by the
presentation of certificates which
took some little time. The pupils
names were first called by one OF
the teachers who stood back near
them and as their names were called
they came to the front and waited
till their names were called again
by the Prin; the child then ad-
yanced within about six feet OF
the Prin, stopping to make a very
low bow after which he stepped
up and received received the GER
tificate which he raised to his
forehead making second bow
and then stepping back to his first
position to make a third bow be-
fore returning to his seat. After
about 500 children had gone
through this elaborate procedure
they were addressed by the Pres,
followed by a few words from the
Mayor; then a speech was made
by boy and an essay read by a
girl to whom the highest hon
honors of the class were awarded.
After another song by the school
we were dismissed to visit the
class rooms and examine the works
of the school which consisted of
sewing and embroidery, drawings,
etc. All the examination papers
were displayed for inspection.
Shortly after this we were sum-
moned to the lunch room and
served again to tea and cake, then
returned to our homes.
MIR. EDITOR, | would like few
more lines to speak to my friends
about the importance (to me) OF
putting stamps enough on their
letters. | don't want any one to
make their letters any shorter but
wish they would all use light
weight paper or make up the
deficiency by putting IN ten
cent stamp. If a letter comes just
the least bit over weight | have to
pay ten cents to get it, just as ii
there was no stamp on it at all.
This Government seems to think
it its duty to get all it can out OF
us poor foreigners. Sincerely
ALICE M. OTTo.
