GREEN IMPROVEMENTS.
JULIAN D. JANVlsR BEGINS THE
WORK ON THE PLOTS.

TRUSTEES CANNOT AGREE ON
THE SCHOOL GREEN QUESTION
AND Mr.. ROGERS HAS REFUSED
TO sUPERINTEND OR TO AT
TEND MEETINGS.
Work was begun on the school green
yesterday. This time Il was by Julian
ID. Janvier and colored man They
hauled the dirt from one end Of the
green 10 the other J. Harry Rogers.
who was appointed some time ago to
superintend the work of improving the
green, has refused to do 50 since he
was ordered to quit by Messrs- Janvier
and Cooper He also refused to attend
a meeting Of the trustees called for the
purpose OF discussing the matter and
arriving at some decision.
While this quarrel is going on the
people of the city are puzzled over the
question as to when the Improvements
will be completed. There is no way in
which the people can act on the matter,
and they must rest content with the
movements of the trustees.
A few figures on the subject may in
terest the public About four years ago
a resolution was adopted setting aside
all the rents collected from the west
end of the old Court House building for
the purpose of improving the green.
Since that time little or no improve
ments have been made AT the
time when the recent improve
ments were begun this fund had
amounted to S420 and now amounts tc
$3.50. OF this amount about $3.50 has
been expended for labor, concrete and
benches. With the balance Mr.. Rogers
intended to put a fountain in the cen
tire OF the green and also make three OF
four flower beds Several women of the
city promised to take care Of these beds
and since the care would be cOmpeti
tive. the beds would no doubt receive
the proper attention and be fitting or
naments for this public property. Since
differences have arisen the people mus

Deafness Cannot be Cared

By local applications, as they cannot react
the diseased portion OF the ear. There il
only one way to cure deafness, and that il
by constitutional remedies. Deafness il
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining Of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube gets inAamed you have q
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
pal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catArrh. which is nothing but an in.
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.

has just come to light. It was
while Lewis, Pickens and Wardlaw
we're threshing. MIR. Lewis borrow
ed horse from Dir. Hill to 20
ahead and make arrangements for
threshing. He returned and put
the horse up at MIR. Stanley's and
ordering MIR. Wardlaw to return the
horse to MIR. Hill. Mr.. w. caught
the horse and rode of. After going
q good way he thought he might
have made mistake and got the
wrong horse, not being acquainted
With either horee. He inquired Of
a lady whom he met, whose horse
he was on. She thought it was MIR.
Stenley's. Not being satisfied. he
determined to inquire at the next
house, which he did and was in.
formed BY the wife Of Mr.. s., who
was visiting her neighbour that the
horse was the property of MIR. S.,
and he would do we'll to return it.
which he promptly did, and since
he has been more cautious about
whose horse he rides.
Come to the picnic and bring
your basket we'll filled. We will
look after the editors and CORES.
