Centralia'S New Council.

The a!dermanity of Centralia held a
business session at the city hall, Mon
day evening, and organized to assume
direction of municipal affairs under the
new order Of things. f. E. kellner,
recently elected mayor, presided.
The first business Of interest was the
seating of an alderman from the first
ward, there being two contestants for
the place as a result of a tie vote on
election day. Two fips Of a coin settled
the question of privilege in the case
and Frank Kern was the lucky man.
1t was decided that the first flip should
give the winner first choice Of sides for
the decisive heat VIM. H. Clairmont
took "tails," and Frank Kern "heads." "
The coin turned ''tails" and Mr.. Clair
mont was given first choice. He selected
'ta1ls" for the race, but that's where he
made his mistake. The coin landed
"heads" up and Kern was crowned
alderman.
Frank l.. Rourke was elected city
clerk and superintendent of water
works for another year without oppo-
sitlon. The clerks salary was raised
$40, making the two positions now
worth $11O year.
Hugh S. Boles was elected president
of the council. J. w. Cochran was
elected city attorney.
The council stood tied between w. A.
Corriveau and VIM. H. Clairmont on its
vote for street commissioner. Mayor
kellner voted to break the tie in favor
of Mr.. ClairmOnt.
c.. L. Duncan was re-appOinted night
watch for one month at salary Of $40
per month. A committee was appointed
to consider the cost and adyisability of
purchasing two register clocks to be
placed at either end of Cranberry
street for the use of the night watch in
ringing hourly taps every night he is on
duty.
A resolution was passed fixing the
assessors salary at 500 year.
The first session of the new council
passed off smoothly and the questions
up for consideration were handled with
business-like precision.

Airship Passed Here.

That mystifying and strange airship,
balloon, meteor, tailless comet, wan
dering star, headlight Of some great
evil spirit. or whatnot, that has been
cutting up so many antics in the western
heavens during the last two weeks,
passed over our cities Sunday night at
abont 9 O'Clock, watched by many repu-
table citizens. Papers all over the
country have been full of ''airships'
lately and this thing Of wonder must be
a swift traveller or else there are many
of them just alike, working simulta-
neously on tie same string over numer-
GUS states. Of course there were few
excited persons mere who could plainly
discern a frame work Of some sort sur
rounding the red light which shone
with Pickering lustre. This has been a
high-fown night bird, but whatever its
nature, is now rather common sight
even to the inhabitants Of earth. The
peculiar stranger has been clearly Wis
ible in the twin cities on two or three
different evenings, and 10 practical
joker has sent up balloons or anything
of that nature either.

New q. A. r, Post Rooms.

! Wood County Post No. -, G. A. R,
will soon move its headquarters from
| the post rooms on Main street into a
commOdious new hall which they have
fitted up for themselves in the old
| Methodist church (EpwOrth hall) build
Ing. Since the Grand Army boys Sc
| cured this property many changes have
| been made on the inte rior, and work is
still in progress such that when all is
completed few will recognize the former
piece of worship. The floor of the
gallery in the back of the church has
been extended nearly half the length
of the building and enclosed. This
makes Il room 22x&6 feet to be used as
tile Post hall proper. Neatly painted
and with splendid chances for ventiia
ton there is no reason why this will not
make pleasant quarters. Large doors
that slide upward have been arranged
so as to open easily at any moment the
post room into the main room down
stairs.
dance hall and convenient place for
gatherings and meetings of every des-
criptiOn A cloak room and ticket Office
will be partitioned off to the right and
left of the main entrance. Atthe north
end of the building 81 foot addition is
contemplated, to be made into a stage
for opera purposes. The stage VIII be
| full depth of addition and of good
width, constructed in every detail ac-
cording to modern notions. Drop cur
tains will be made to slide noiselessly
up and down instead Of on rolls. Dress
ing rooms will be arranged handy and
roomy. In other words, a neat little
opera house, with seating capacity Of
four hundred is what the old soldiers
are going to fit up for public use. Such
an investment, it seems, ought to be a
paying one and we would be glad to see
them succeed 1t certainly would fill Il
long felt want.
The whole building will be raised
about % feet and placed on a stone
foundation. Heat will be supplied by a
jacket system similar to that now used
at the Congregational church. a flag
staff must yet be erected and then the
G. A. r. can boast of meeting place
of which every member should feel
proud. They will have a place also
that can be rented at most reasonable
terms for various uses and occasions.
All success to the G. A. r. in its new
home.

Going to England.

Joseph Kilburne is in the city this
week among his old time friends, a
guest of 0. P. Menzel. He has been
employed during the last two years
with tea and c."ee firm at Dayton,
Ohio, but came here direct from Kau-
kauna where he visited his brother,
Rev. Wm. kilburne. Joseph expects
soon to depart for England to visit an
other brother at Newcastle-on-Tyne
and spend some time about the haunts
and scenes of his boyhood wears. He
Will start from Detroit about May 9TH,
going by rail to Montreal. Canada,
thence sail for Liverpool! on the Alland
Steamship line. Joseph came to Amer
lea in 1890 and about three years ago
took out his first papers declaring an
intention to become a citizen Of United
States before the clerk of circuit court
in this county. He wanted to vote last
fall in Ohio but could not secure second
papers because of some technicality.
He intends, therefore, to be made a
full fledged American citizen while here
and complete the naturalization work
of renouncing all fealtY to foreign sub
jects and especially Victoria, Queen of
England. We wish Mr.. Kilburne a safe
and pleasant journey across the sea.

Marshfield News and New County

The Marshfeld News bad very little
to say IN its last issue about Rivers
county. We clip the last paragraph of
a short editorial article as follows:
The fight is lost for this time. We
must bear up as best we can under
existing inconveniences and oppression
for two more years before We can make
another effort for release from de-
tested bondage. But this question will
never be settled until it is settled right,
and the fight will never be abandoned
until a new county Is organized"
1t will never be settled right until
you 90 at it right. You take the bull by
the horns, try the tail and see if YOU
can't do better.

Copper sheathed Passenger Coaches.

A type Of passenger coaches finished
with copper on the outside rather than
the usual paint and yarnish is being
put into service on the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad. The adj
vantage of this is that the cars are more
readily kept in a condition of cleanli-
ness and brightness, and when 1t is nee
essary to send car to the shops for an
exterior overhauling it is ready for the
service again in half the time required
to paint and varnish it, All the wood
paneling and sheathing are made in pre-
cisely the same manner, and light
coating Of copper is formed around the
wood, fitting closely into all the curves
and corners. Each piece Of sheathing
and its strip of copper are passed
through the machine simultaneously
and come out ready for use with the
copper wrapped tightly around the wood.
After the sheating and other parts are
covered or plated with copper they are
applied to the body Of the car in such a
manner that the exposed surfaces are
not punctured by nails or other fasten-
ings, so that when completed the casual
observer would not notice but that the
car was finished with paint and var
nish. All joints are completely water
tight. thinning and Scientific Press.
