BONDS AND WATER
Mayor snyder's Visit to San Fran
cisco and It's Result

Mayor NJ. P. Snyder has returned from
Z five days trip to San Francisco, and
that his time was put in to good advan-
tage became apparent when he unbos-
omed himself yesterday morning regard
ing the cause of his hurried visit.
Through his efforts the contention of the
water company officials that lawful
money" bonds of the city for water
works purposes could not be success
fully foated has been proved false. and
he has definitely ascertained that not
only can this city legally and successfully
issue bonds of such character, but that
several of the most prosperous cities
of the country. have repeatedly market
ed bonds bearing this provision and can
sell all they will issue.
Two weeks ago the mayor wrote to
the chief executives of fifteen cities,
requesting information as to the kind
of bonds they had been in the habit of
issuing. Replies have already been re-
ceived from seven Of them, as follows:
Detroit, Mich, Quincy, ILL.,, Des Moines
Iowa. Little Rock, Ark, and Nashville,
Tenn. AL issue their bonds payable in
'lawful money of the United States y
Atlanta, Ca, and Richmond, Va, bonds
are payable in gold. coin of standard
weight and f1neness." In Nashville, out
of total outstanding bonded indebted
ness of 1887 900, only $3.50 900 is payable
In gold--the rest can be liquidated in
lawful money. All bonds of this city are
now issued under the latter provision
and the last issue was f1oated less than
a year ago. Quincy marketed her last
bonds July 1st last. and Atlanta on the
18th Of this month.
The mayor Of Cleveland, Ohio, sent
copy of his last annual message, in
which he states that his city enjoys a
most enviable reputation in the financial
market, and that no difficulty is expe-
rienced in marketing their 4 per cent
bonds at premium which really makes
the rate of interest little more than
~ per cent. Cleveland bonds are paya-

STREET SPRINKLING
New and Improved Watering Carts
Soon to Be Used

Few persons are aware of the rapidity
with which the graded streets of
the city are being extended, and
fewer still have ever given a
thought to the number of sprinklers'
which are required to keep the roads
free from dust and in a passable condi-
tion. At present the street sprinkling
contractor is running ninety-six wagons
during the day and a number at night
One of the greatest annoyances' to the
contractor has been the impossibility
of properly watering the principal bust
ness streets during the busy hours Of
the day, when teams pass in an almost
unbroken procession. The ordinary style
carts cannot be handled quickly enough
and stretches of pavement are left dry
owing to the necessity of shutting off
the water whenever passing a vehicle
or street car. To obviate this, two new
and improved style carts have been or
dered from the east and will be here
about October 10th. Each tank will hold
$50 gallons, and the stream can be con-
trolled instantaneously. The outpour
can be made faster or slower, or dimin-
ished to fine spray, all changes being
made almost instantaneously. The wag-
ons cost $500 each. and will be put into
service on Main, Spring and Broadway

HE WANTED TIGER-CATs
And Wrote to Chief Glass to Get Them
for Him

The peculiar ideas of some people in
regard to the duties of public officials
are at times amusing. Chief Glass is
the last one to be called upon to show
that he is very Pooh-Bah in the COM
pass of his duties. The chief yesterday
received letter from a man signing
himself Rease Furbay, who resides at
Martins Ferry, Belmont county, Ohio.
Inclosed was note to be used as di
rected in his letter to the chief. The let
ter read as follows:
Der Sir l Want Pair of tiger Cats.
and inclosed Please fiend Note
Please address it to Hunter and Tran
per. or Som one that may have the Cats

The inclosed missive compares favor
ably with this from an orthogra phic
standpoint, and in explanatory detail
is even fuller. Mr.. Furbay also intro
duces to an appreciative audience an
entirely new and original method of ad-
dressing an unknown correspondent.
The literary gem is as follows:

PARK MATTERS
Mr.. Griffith Indignant at News
paper Accusation

Yesterdays meeting of the board of
park commissioners was erlivened by
only one little incident, which came up
| unexpectedly and proved the sole topic
of interest. Commissioner Griffi h
called the attention of his colleagues to
a paragraph in an evening paper alleg-
ing he had violated provision of the
city charter in selling lumber to the city
through his company while himself a
city official.
Mr.. Griffith asked that the city attor-
ney be sent for to render an opinion in
the premises. On arrival Mr.. Dunn
stated that in his opinion there was no
violation of the laws where goods were
sold to the city by a company one of
whose stockholders was city official.
The charter provision merely prohibits
the selling of goods 10 the city by city
official. Mr. Griffith said that if this
were otherwise he would feel obliged to
tender his resignation. The city attor-
ney promises that he would investigate
the matter carefully before the next
meeting and report thereon.
President Dockweiler of the board of
library directors appeared before the
commission and requested that the su-
perintendent of parks be authorized to
place appropriate potted plants in the
refitted library rooms and, corridors. On
motion the superintendent was directed
to furnish such plants as can be spared.
The committee appointed to investi-
gate the charges against ]. V. Rushton,
the park employe, accused by council
men of talking disrespectfully of them,
reported that they had not yet complet-
ed their investigation, nor had they
reached a decision. The commission
granted an extension of time to the COM
mittee for it's report.
The appointment of John Farquhar a
special policeman at astlake park was
confirmed by the board.
On motion the secretary was instruct
ed to advertise for bids for the boating
privileges in Eastlake park, bids to be
presented at the next regular meeting.
The chairman of the interviewing COM
mittee on the apportionment of taxes for
the parks reported a satisfactory meet
ing with the finance committe of the
council.
The finance committee recommended
the acceptance of the bid of Harper
Reynolds company to supply $50 feet of
4-inch drain pipe at 10 cents per foot in
the yard; also the acceptance of the bid
of the same firm for cleaning, delivering
and dipping $40 feet of 4-inch pipe at
21a cents per foot

mount the wagon as it passed close to
him, but missed his hold and fell be-
tween the wheels. The heavy vehicle
passed over him, crushing in his little
chest. The body was picked up and
carried into neighboring drug storo,
but in few minutes the child was dead.
Clemons, the driver of the wagon, was
held in custody pending the investiga-
tion by the coroner. Upon his blameless-
ness being clearly shown he was re-
leased, the jury bringing in verdict of
accidental death.

The literary merit of the two notes was
too good to be hidden, SO the chief per-

EMPERORS HOBNOB.
Wilhelm Says Highly Agreeable
Things Co Austrian Emperor


Buda Pest, Sept 25.-At the state
banquet given in honor of Emperor
William of Germany, Emperor Francis
Joseph, in proposing his majesty's
health, referred to him as my faithful
friend. ally and unwearied fellow la
borer in the great work of peace, to
which may we ever devote our best
powers"
In conclusion the Austrian emperor
remarked:
Convinced that similarity of SEN
timent guides us in this exalted mis-
sion, empty my glass;
Emperor William in reply remarked:
"It was with feelings of the most pro-
found gratitude that I listened to your
majesty's cordial greeting. Thanks to
your majeSty'S invitation, I have been
enabled to visit this beautiful city,
whose splendid reception has literally
overwhelmed me. We Germans follow
with sympathetic news the history
of the Hungarian people, whose love for
their country has become a proverb, and
who in their struggles have not hesitat-
ed to sacrifice their blood and goods in
defense of the cross. Names like Zrinyi
and Czigeth to this day make the heart
of every German maid beat faster with
sympathetic admiration. We have fol-
lowed the celebrate of the thousandth
birthday of the loyal HungartanS, ar
rayed in dazzling spIendor about their
beloved king. Their majestic move
ments testify to their artistic sense,
while the bursting OF the 1eIterS lay Dy
the iron gate; commerce and inter
course opened new paths and brought
Hungary into the ranks and on an
equal footing with the great civilized
nations.
But what has made the deepest inn
pressions upon me during my stay in
Hungary, is the enthusiastic devotion
of the Hungarians to your majesty 8
august person. Not alone mere noWev
err but in Europe, and above all with
INV own people the same fervent en-
thusiasm prevails for your majesty, a
feeling in which I also, who look up as
a son to your majecty, as being my pa
ternal friend venture to claim a share.
Thanks to the wisdom of your maj
esty our alliance, concluded in the
past by our people, stands firm and IN
dissolubIe. It has secured peace to Eu-
rope for a long time and will do so still
longer.
1.-THE impassioned devotion to your
majesty, of this I am certain, burns to
this day in the hearts of the sons OF
Arafd as the day when they cried aloud
to your majesty's great ancestors
'Moriafnur pro rege nostro.
I'm giving expression to these sent1-
r,,ents we wish, one and all, to combine
all we think, feel and desire Tor your
majesty in the cry which every Hun
garian echoes to his last breath-'ElJen
a kiraly.'"
The speech of Emperor William caus-
ed tremendous enthusiasm, especially
when he alluded to Count Zriny1S de-
tense of the fortress of SZirngeth IN
1865 when he blew up the citadels rath-
er than capitulate to the Turks

ATCHISON'S BRIDGE FIGHT.
City Makes Another Move to Obtain
Possession. 1AlLs-

Atchison, Sept. 27.-Another blow has
been struck in the fight the city of
Atchison is making for it's bridge across
the Missouri river County Attorney
F. G. Crowell filed suit to have the
franchises claimed by the Chicago &
Atchison Bridge company be perpetual
ly enjoined from exercising corporate
rights from demanding or receiving
tolls, from obstructing the use of said
bridge, or from removing the same.
The city claims that the bridge charter
expired in 1893, that the corporation
was irregular, as no capital stock was
ever subscribed and paid for, except the
sum of 800, 900 by the city of Atchison,
and a small amount subscribed by pri
vate individuals who were members of
the Missouri corporation that consoli-
dated with the Kansas corporation. If
this suit is won, the attorneys say 1t
will have the effect of making a free
bridge at Atchison.

WAS 1T A FRAUD PARDON 2
a Queer Story of Dr. Calls Release
From the Kansas Penitentiary.

Pittsburg, Sept. 27.-Dr. Homer A.
Call was sent to the penitentiary from
this county about two years ago for a
grave offense under the statutes of this
state in that he had run away with a
girl named Havely, who was under IS,
to Missouri, where they had been mar
ried. A young woman who called her
self Miss Havely and claimed to have
passed 18 since the escapade and to be
anxious to again become Mrs. Call ap-
Feared before the board of pardons and
made herself known to the prison Off
cials at Lansing and many of the state
officials at Topeka and ultimately Sc
cured DR.. Calls pardon. after which
marriage ceremony was performed in
the chapel of the penitentiary.
It is now claimed here by persons
who seem to know that the doctors
ally was not Miss Havely and that all
the circumstances surrounding the par
don constituted a probably unique
fraud. Miss Havely is said to have
been in Texas ever since the eIopement.
At present the whole world is wonder
ing at the tremendous sales and desira-
BILE effects of Beggs' German SaIve.
Druggists sell it.
