A PERTINENr suGGEsr1oN

There should be a public con-
venience placed in Tenth Street Park, +"
remarked a West Side man to the Way
farer last night. Il believe that It is
the only much-frequented park in the
city which is utterly devoid OF such a
thing. and it is a wonder to me, and
doubtless to others that the Board Of
Water Commissioners, which conducts
the place, is not alive to its necessity. -

ITS PAYMENT UNDER THE TREATY OF PEACE BE-
 FORE CONGRESS
MUST BE APPROPRIATED
At This Term of Congress to Comply With the Terms of the
 Treaty,

" ashlngtoh, D. C., Jan uary L. The payment of $20,000, GOO to Spain under the terms of tie peace treaty is beginning to receive attention from the mem 5ers of the House ap- propriations committee, and it is likely the ameung will be carried in one of the regular appropriation bills, probably the sundry civil.
 Chairman Cannon, says, however, the question has not been formally considered yet, as there has been no estimate submitted and no official information as to the requirements of the case. Moreover there is no desire to anticipate action on the treaty and until it is ratified the House is hardly in a position to car ry out this provision as to payment. In the event of ratiHca at!on, how ever, speedy action will be neoes- sary, The treaty provides the pay ment shall be made within three months after the exchange of rati- fications, and another provision re- quires the exchange Of notifications within six months from the date the treaty is sl9ned, VIZ, December 10, last. This would bring the pay ment before the next session of Con- gress, so that the appropriation must be made at the present ses- sion.
 Owing to the short time elapsing after the Senate acts on the treaty, and the close of the present session, it is felt little time will remain tc deal with a matter of this import auae

MIR. JOE BOBBETT HAS 4 LARGE BOARD
 DRIVEN
THROUGH HIS ABDOMEN.
Was Performing His Duties al the Bluff City Mill When Acci-
 dent Occurred.

Saturday morning about ll30 o'clock a most awful and sicken- ing accident occurred at the Bluff City Mill, situated in the western suburbs of the city
 MT Joe Bobbett was at work at the edger to which is attached q patent machine that throws aside lumber after it is properly edged. Mr. Bobbett was feeding this edger when he stopped and in some care less manner pulled the lever of the throwing machine. A large piece of lumber was thrown against Mfr. Bcbbett aud passed through his body with so great force that it tore away his abdomen and came out near the hip bone.
 He was immediately conveyed to the Infirmary where Drs. Rnnyan, Orto, Thompson aud Troupe did all in their power to ease the unforsun- ate's terrible sutferings.
 MT. Bobbett is married man with several children tc care for and the accident, together with the surrounding circumstances, is a very sad affair.
 The attending physicians have little hope for his recovery. He was about % or 30 years of age and was valued employe at the mills.
 We deeply sympathize with the family in their trouble and hope for the recovery of the injured man although present indications are very unfavorable.
