When was rector of st. Margaret's,

always delightful to see and hear him

poor-in grammar or arithmetic, or
looked critically at the work done by
the little Annes and Mary James Of tho

nifty by the accomplishing faithfulness
and regularity with which for many
long years he discharged the compare
lively humble routine duties of an IN

very uncongenial and from which he
ought to have been exempted by promo

He used sometimes to say at gatherings
where he was received with the loudest
applause, Gentlemen, you sec before

THE CINEMATOGRAPHE.
A Yankee Invention that Has Re
ceived Its Polishing Touches
In La Belle France.


Tonight, and tomorrow afternoon
and evening, our people will be afforded
an opportunity, at Olympia Theater,
of witnessing the performance of the
best machine yet perfected for pro-
jecting moving pictures, which repre-
sents in q startling realistic manner,
animated life. The Lumere Cinemato-
graphe is, doubtless, the elimination OF
inventive genius in this interesting
branch of scientific discovery. 1t is said
to be entirely free from that simmer,
so trying to the eyes and marring of
effect, that has attended the projec-
ton of pictures from life by other pro-
cesses, and the movement is so free
and easy as to absolutely lull the
senses to the fact that it is but the
reflection of acts that are past and
finished.
The views that will be presented at
each exhibition will be from q long
list of subjects, scenes in foreign lands
as we'll as at home, serious and comic,
by land and sea, all taken from actual
occurrences, and apparently only
wanting in the various noises which
usually attend motion, to make them
veritable realities. There will be three
exhibitions given by this wonderful
machine-to-night, tomorrow after
noon and tomorrow evening. The
charge for the evening performances
will be SO and 25 cents, and for the
matinee 25 for adults and 10 cents for
children. 1t is an amusing and in.
structive as we'll as a cheap form of en-
tertainment.

IMPENDING DISASTER.
Through Mistaken Notions
of Economy.

Our city is at this time confronted
by startling proposition, no less
than the entire suspension of
the ample and adequate fire service
supplied by one OF the best gravity
systems on the coast. This alternative
is forced upon the company owning
the works, by the course of the City
Council in arbitrarily reducing the
compensation for the service, from the
contract price of $3,5l2 per annum to
less than one-third that amount
81 600 "A compensation totally in
adequate to provide its share Of inter
est on the cost of the plant and the
expenses of maintaining and operat-
ing the same.
A gentleman prominently Unidentified
with the company has made this
statement:
"Thc attention is forced upon lis by
the course of the City Council in
arbitrarily reducing the compensation
for the service from the contract price
S3,3l2 per annum to almost one-fOurth
this amount.
cat the time the contract was made,
it was considered in all respects as
reasonable, and the city was congratu-
lated upon securing So thorough and
effective Il service at the cost stipulated );
but the company in order to float its
bonds, was compelled to put in iron
pipes throughout, and first.class equip
ment in every respect, and in order to
make the fire service complete, much
larger mains and branches were laid
than would have sufficed for service
to consumers only, in order to obtain
the pressure as well as ample storage,
essential considerations for perfect
protection. The terms of the contract,
compared with similar obligations of
other cities, are by no means OPP
pressive, except when viewed from an
impoverished state of affairs, and it
must be borne in mind that the same
conditions practically exist everywhere
Seattle, with her 49S hydrants, pays an
annual rental of $48 each, or, in round
numbers, $24, 600 per annum, for the
privilege of having an ample supply of
water to extinguish fires, should they
happen to occur. Chehalis, q city
that is probably better for comparison,
being nearer to our own population,
pays $1,000 per year for twenty-six,
hydrants. 1t may happen that the
protection is so perfect that no dis
astrous fires are reported-all flames
being extinguished in their incipiency
but it would be very short-sighted
judgment that might base the ad-
equacy of the protection on actual

the calamity of placing our city at the
mercy of the lurid tiend, when the ex-
perience Of the last month has shown
the existence of the tire-bug in our
midst? Some decisive movement is
necessary at once, for the moment it
is known that the water company in
tends to suspend the hydrant service,
which keeps insurance at the mini
mum rate, every policy held by our
people will be Cancelled and our credit
as a business community be irretriev-
ably ruined.

None But Ayers at the Worlds Fair

There was only one blood purifier
admitted at the Worlds Fair, Chicago.
1t was Ayers Sarsaparilla. All others
were shut out because they did not
meet the requirements of the Fair Com
mssioners: Ayers Sarsaparilla only
was accorded the honor of an entry, be-
cause it did meet those require
ments. In other words, the Worlds
Far authorities found Ayers Sarsapar-
lila to be an honest, scientific prepara-
ton, the only one of its kind they could
endorse. That was good testimony that
Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best blood
purifier made. Furthermore, hundreds
OF physicians say it is, thousands of
druggists say it is, millions of patients
say, 1t is. Take it, ailing friend, and you
will say it is.
