opinion In which he holds that the
new county salary bill applies to hold
over county officers as well as to those
who began their terms the day the law
goes into effect. Some OF the hold

visions on the plea that being elected
under the old law it was virtually a
contract for two years service at the
then existing salary

After this report was made Mayor swift

other cities paid for the Gamewell boxes.

Cleveland paid $50 a box. This was for tlre

Superintendent Barrett, of the hre ana po-

to the report of the expert commission,

NOSLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS
One Cause of SIeepIessness That Can
He Readily Overcome.

Mr.. William Handschu, of Forty-sixth
street, Cotton alley Pittsburg, Pa. ex-
presses himself as follows regarding the
new remedy for that common and obsti-
nate disease, piles: Il take pleasure in stat
ing that l was so afflicted with piles that
for three months 1 got regular sleep; 1
became completely Frustrated; the doctors
did me no good; my brother told me of the
new remedy for piles, the Pyramid Pile
Cure. 1 purchased from my druggist three
50-cent boxes and they completely cured
me. I am once more at my work. and but
for this excellent medicine 1 should be on
my back. 1 take great pleasure in writing
this letter, because so many people are SUI
ferers from this trouble who like myself
did not know where to look for a per-
manent. reliable safe cure.
Experience with the Pyramid Pile Cure
in the past three years has demonstrated
to the medical profession, as we'll as 10
thousands of sufferers from piles, that it is
the safest and most effectual pile cure ever
offered to the public. containing no opiateS
or poisons of any kind, painless and con-
venient TO handle and, being sold by drug
gists at so cents and 81 per box, is within
the reach of every sufferer.
Very frequently two or three boxes have
made a complete cure of chronic cases that
had not yielded TO other remedies Tor
years.
1neTe IS scarcely q ulsSdSS hIOle dBSId-
waiting and obstinate to cure than the vari-
Gus forms of piles and II is a common
practice to use ointments, salves and SINH
lar preparations containing dangerous poi
sons to remove the trouble. The Pyramid
has superseded all of these Intellectual rem
edies, and no one suffering with any rectal
trouble will make any mistake in giving
the Pyramid Il trial.
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble, send to the Pyramid Drug Co., AL
bion, Mich, for a valuable little book on
piles, describing all forms of the disease
and describing the method of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyramid
Pile Cure, as il is the best known and most
popular remedy for piles and if you ask
him he can doubtless refer you to many
people in your vicinity who have been
cured completely by it,

ing the address. The society is composed or

ance was small. Referring to this Mr., Kern
said that while he believed the feeling OF
independence and patriotism was just as
strong in the hearts of young men and
women to-day as it was a century ago, he
believed that the desire to find cool place
was a stronger thing in the hearts of the
people of this city and he could not blame
them much. His address was stirring re-

Evidences of n Lost River.
Popular Science News.

The recent discovery of an oak tree. two
or three feet in diameter, fifty feet below
the surface. while sinking we'll with a
drill at the confluence of the oneida ana
Seneca rivers New York, is an important
discovery 1t indicates that the Oneida
river was at one time the outlet of an i'm
mense volume of water, and opens up TO
readers very interesting geological conJec-
lures The theory would seem TO be plausi-
bic that the Oneida river was once the out
let of the great chain of lakes. one Is re-
minded that Lake Ontario is S34 feet lower

tionably, in conditions Immediately con-

the Oneida river has been raised up so
that to-day it is 1l5 feet higher than the
surface of the water of Lake Ontario.
The waters from the great chain Of lakes
must have passed from Lake Ontario south
through the valley where the Oswego river
now runs reversal OF the present course
of that river. At the confluence of the
Oneida with the Oswego Tho great volume
of water made its way eastward through
the Oneida river to the Mohawk and Hud-
son rivers. The Mohawk valley shows
plainly that it was a great water course at
one period; and the discovery of the buried
timber at Three Rivers proves conclusively
that the water bed of the Oneida was at
one period at least fifty feet lower than it
now is, and perhaps 100 to $50 feet lower
1t is even asserted that the shores of Lake
Ontario were once located as far south as
Baldwinsville; thence the course of the
shore has been traced through Cayuga,
Wayne, Monroe and adjacent counties
This condition shows if correct, that the
whole region Including Schroeppel, Clay
Cisero and portions of Madison county, was
at one period a vast lake, but that in sub
sequent years subsiderce OF the waters
took place by the depression, causing Lake
Ontario. Silt was washed down from the
west through the Oswego and Oneida riv-
ers and valleys. The drift of alluvium was
eastward. and, as now proved, covered up
trees and filed in deep channels. 1t is con-
occurred that the St. Lawrence river did
not exist at that time.

MIR. M'CURDY,S CHARGES.
Says n Democratic Councilman Told
Him TINT 1t MOuId Cost $1,000"


w. S. McCurdy, local agent of the United
States Company. makes charges publicly
that one of the Democratic members of the
finance committee of the Council ap-
preached him, and, after asking what his
company intended to do about the matter"
told him that it would take between $4,000
and 5000 to get a contract through the
board and Council
Before the board advertised" said Mr..
McCurdy, Il called this councilman at
his place of business to talk with him
about the proposed letting. He said to me:
The Gameweu people are on the ground
and have got pull They are very smooth
people, and this is a big contract. They
want it awful bad, and will spend money
to get it, Even though they have pull, if
this matter is properly handled you can
land the contract. If you can't find out
how to handle it will show
you how met him week or so a1L AFTER
to do | told him | didn't know; that our
representative would be here from the COM
pany in a few days, and L would then see
what he would do. The councilman came
up to my place, No. "A Baldwin block, twice
to see me. Once he found me there, and L
again deferred making any definite answer
to his inquiry | made an engagement to
meet him at the Bates House at o clock
last Monday, | believe 1t was. lie came TO
ii
Cleveland, of our company, was there. The
councilman called me out into the hall and
said Is your man here" Mr.. Dodge came
out into the hall and told the councilman
that we wanted the contract. They talked
in a general way for few minutes, and
Mr.. Dodge went back into the room. The
councilman said to me, Have you made up
your mind what you are going to do? said
J. See here, what is your idea or this2'
The councilman said, What do you mean"
What is it going to cost to get this con-
tract?' L asked. Well said he, 1t is going
to take a large amount of money. There
are so many people that 1T will have to be
divided among. There are two boards to
get-that's six-and we have TO have ma
jorty of the Council to ratify. That will
make quite a number to divide 1t up
among.
Il told him would have to get some
idea of what amount he thought would be
necessary. 1t will take about 1000 to ham
die it, said he. l told him to wait until 1
talk to one man at time. Mr.. Dodge
came out with Mr.. Dickson, or our COM
pany The councilman said to Dodge:
What are you fOlks1swilling to do? Mr..
Dodge said he would telegraph to me what
we would do
Mr.. Dodge says that the councilman met
him at the Grand Hotel about twenty min
utes later and asked How long will it
take to find out about this matter?'
Mr.. McCurdy says that this councilman
was afterwards with Chandlee and Ker-
nand, of the GameWell Company, and was
present with the Board Of Safety when
they inspected the GameWell system.
The name of this councilman was given
by Mr.. McCurdy and repeated efforts were
made to see him Yesterday A reporter Of
the Journal called his house twice, but
he was not at home.
