The pleasant method and beneficial

SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the

the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-

tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance. and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste. but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and

Council Proceedings


McConathy, Delouest, Fuller,
Carmichael and Smith. Absent:
Livingston, Davis and Edwards.
McConathy presided.
A committee composed of 81
mon Benjamin, Jake Brown and
q. s. Scott appeared, regarding
relief from double assessment.
Mr.. Benjamin was the speaker
and made a lucid explanation,
namely: that the 0. B. & L. As
ISOLATION was compelled to pay
double taxes on city property.
The occupant of the house paid
taxes and SO did the association,
on it's mortgage on said building,
which was contrary to equity
and justice. On such property
they were paving $50. Mr.. B.
suggested that it be reduced from
$4,000 to $1,000, which was grant
ed. Alderman Smith favored
the reduction but asked what
was to become of the city's es.
innate if continued rebates were
allowed. 1t was also a case
which was referred to the judi
ciary committee last October and
plgeonholed. Ex-Aljerman Ben
jamin denied the soft lmpeach-
ment made against his Gerellc-
ton of official duty by Alderman
Smith, but when President Nc
Conathy drew the records on
Mr.. Benjamin, the latter, like the
man that he is, rendered apollo
gies to Mr.. Smith, which the lat
ter accepted, aud everyone pres
ent smiled.
William lockers resignation
as a member of the city board of
health was accepted.
Bond made by Mrs. Kingman
and H. L. Anderson for a miss
ing warrant was accepted, and
a new on will be drawn in lieu of
the lost one.
The members Of the fire de-
partment have learned that the
hose wagons and their loads are
too heavy for their horses, and is
the cause of the horses breaking
down so quickly, and therefore
petitioned the council to trade off
Dewey" of equine fire depart
ment fame and secure for him
two horses, which will enable
them to reach fire quicker and
with almost double the present
of hose, and remove the
of sending a wagon
back for more hose. The ques-
ton precipitated quite a lively
discussion, in which DR.. Delouest
bore leading part and came off
with flying colors. Alderman
after ascertaining the ad-
ditlonal cost, about $1T5, moved
that it be referred to the fire
committee, and, with the fire
chief, ascertain the best trade to
be made. 10 this DR.. Delouest
objected, as he said the fire de-
partment was now crippled, and
delay might be the means Of a
severe fire loss to Ocala. Tx
pense, in his estimation, didn't
count when the public safety
from fires demanded a guarantee.
Alderman Smith then moved that |
the $l6O be used by the fire COM
mittee to secure the necessary |

The question whether the fire
horses were properly handled
came up. Some thought the men
did too much whipping. The

eye on this matter.
Celestial Laundryman Joe Jim
asked for rebate of his $40 license.
City Attorney Alfred said it was
collected per ordinance and so it
had to stand. Joe Jim thought
the proportion was not equitably
distributed, as the big laundry,
steam power, only paid $40. The
city ATTORNEY remarked that the

THE BAD BEEF INQUIRY.
The War Department Court Of In
quiry Examines Its Last Wit
ness at Washington.
WILL CHANGE ITS BASE TO CHICAGO
Lieut.. MunsOn. Ninth Infantry, Testified
that the Canned Roast Beef Made Hi
Mon Sick, and They Were Not the Mer
to Complain Till They Had Reached
the Limit OF Endurance.

NaShlngtOn, March O.-Ihe war de-
partment court of inquiry held a very
brief session, the last before their start
for the west, where they will inspect
the packing plants of Chicago, Omaha
and Kansas City. There was but one
witness examined, Lieut.. Frederick l.
Munson, Ninth infantry. He said that
during his service in Cuba up to the
surrenderof Santiago his command had
as a meat component of the ration,
bacon and canned roast beef, in the
proportion of about 10 days of the
former to Is days of the later.
When the Complaints Came.
Until the surrender he received nc
complaints of the canned roast beef
but after the surrender his commissary
sergeant reported to him that some.
thing was making the men very sick,
They Did not know what it was
but thought it was some
thing they had eaten. After
eliminating every other factory that
they could think of, they concluded
it must be the canned roast beef. He
ordered the cooks to try fixing up the
meat in stews, with hard tack and
tomatoes, but it seemed to make no
difference. The men continued sick.
The men discontinued the use of the
beef. On the voyage home they still
had canned roast beef, but the men
did not eat. He tried to turn it in to
the commissary at Montauk. but the
commissary would not receive it.
WHY He Did Not Report.
Did you make any report on this?''
asked Col Davis.
NO, sir
Did it not occur to you that it was
your duty to your command to report
this state of things?" continued Col.
Davis, rather severely.
LAS it apears to me now," said the
witness, frankly. 1T may have been
negligent, but at the time the COM
plant was so general, and there be-
ing absolutely no chance of bettering
the situation, L did not make any for
NAL report on it"
OF the refrigerator beef, witness said
that the principal objection to it was
that if spoiled before the men received
it. He was obliged to condemn his
whole consignment of refrigerator
beef three times.
Tho Kind of Men He Had.
The health of the men remained
good till about two weeks before
leaving, when the command broke
down all in a bunch. His command
was the headquarters provost guard,
made up of old and picked men. They
were not the sort to complain of any
thing till they had reached the limit
of endurance. Their sickness was al
most entirely bowel and stomach
trouble.
This wound up the taking of tes-
timony in Washington, and the court
adjourned, to meet in Chicago on
Thursday.
