DETRoIT's HEALTH FIGHT.

The Council Decides to Look After Santa
tiOn-Taken into Court.
DETROIT, Mich, March 14.-The fight
between Mayor Pingree and the De-
troit health board recently appointed
by the governor has assumed a new
phase, a majority of the common coun-
Gil last night refusing to appropriate
any money for the health department
and, instead, authorizing the appoint
ment of committee of aldermen to
look after the city's health.
The members of the health board de-
cided to-day, on advice of the city
counselor, to begin legal proceedings
to compel the council to appropriate
money for the health department. A
bill will also be introduced into the
legislature of the same kind.

RECEIPTS AND EXPENSES.

The Treasury Condition for the First Third
of March Shows Expenditures $2,O29,OOO
! Over Receipts.
! WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE treas
ury condition for the first third of
March shows the receipts to have ag-
gregated 50, 325, 900, and the expendi-
lures $11, 354, 900, an excess of the ex-
penditures over the receipts of S2,o29,-
900. An element of uncertainty not
heretofore entering into treasury cal
culations now has to be considered.
It is the large sums of money ap-
propriated by congress in the de-
fciency bill and sundry civil appro-
priation bill. Many of these items are
made Immediately available, and the
payment yesterday of $615,000 on the
''civil and miscellaneous accounts
shows that some of them have begun
to reach the cashiers desk. The GUS
toms receipts show a continued and
sustained improvement, being for the
fiscal year up to date $105, 877, 900, or
nearly S1,GOO,0oo more than for the
same time last year. Internal revenue
receipts are S., 900, 900 in excess of this
time last year, but improvement in
both sources must be shown for the
last third of the fiscal year, or govern
ment revenues for the entire fiscal

went abroad to procure what she was
denied at home, and studied for seven
years in France, Germany and Italy.
The general arts and educational meth
DDS abroad particularly claimed her
attention, and on her return to America
she resumed teaching in New York.
About this time she was married to
John B. Dickinson, a New Yorker bank
er, and for a time she devoted great
deal of her energy and money to philan-
thropio work. Then her husband died,
his wealth was swept away, and she re-
newed her early educational and liter
airy activity. Her ability as a teacher
won for her warm welcome in Denver,
and for time she filed the endowed
chair Of English literature at the uni
versity in Denver. When the rarefied
air of Denver compelled her to vacate
her post, she was made emeritus pro-
fessor, and the chair she had occupied
was given her name.

AN A. o. U. w. FIGHT.

Federal Court In Iowa PetitIoned to Is
sue an Injunction Against Rebels.
DUBUQUE, Ia, March lathe A. o.
q. w. hght turned up in a new quarter
yesterday. Heretofore state courts
have dealt with the case exclusively to
so-called rebels winning always. The
last decision granted an injunction re-
straining the 1oyals from doing an in
surance business in Iowa. Yesterday
a petition was fled in the United
States court asking that the
rebels be restrained from continu-
ing business as an insurance,
trust and benevolent order, and deny
ing the right of authority of the rebels
to use the name of A. O. U. w. The
petition is signed by several members
of the supreme lodge, A. o. q. w, and
several Iowans. The case has already
gained national notoriety and this
latest move viii give it greater promin-
