Water Works Will Be Purchased.


There was a large gathering of re.
personalities of various banking firms
as well as of citizens interested in the
selling of the city bonds, at the special
meeting OF the city council yesterday

The council met with all members

tive to the cost and income OF the pre-
sent system. Their estimation of the
valuation of the present plant was

they considered the plant in very good
shape. The receipts were estimated at
SIS, 900 and the cost of operation So, l6O,
leaving a net profit of SO, $40 Making
an allowance of what the city now pays
for water, it could operate the plant at
a net profit of about $500 and have free
water for all city purposes. The COM
mtttee estimated, however, that there
would be an increase In
revenue from now on. In the
test OF the pressure yesterday through

A report from City Attorney Ford
was read to the effect that he did not
deem 1t advisable to purchase the prop
erty unless clear title could be Sc
cured.
There is mortgage on the property
to the amount of $4,000 and the pro-
position is for the city to pay S110, 900
for the system, 800, 900 from proceeds
OF bond sale and to assume the mort
gage of $40, 900 to be paid later.
Col. Ben Morgan addressed the coun-
ell to the effect that the city could act
as above outlined without rendering
the bond Issue invalid.
Bids for the bonds were then opened
and found to be as follows:

Bya unanimous vote the bid of N.

reality the city will only receive 81 900

paid on the bonds from April l. OF

made in the bid of G. 81. Coffin, next

Catarrh of the lungs is, ordinarily,
known as consumption; also called
tuberculosis. In these cases the catarrh
has usually found it's way into the lungs
by the gradual extension of the disease
from the throat through the bronchial
tubes. Consumption is the natural
termination of all cases of neglected
chronic catarrh. Every one who is
afflicted with chronic catarrh is liable
to be attacked with consumption at any
