At Smiths Headquarters

At the Smith headquarters yesterday everybody seemed to be busy. People were coming and going all day. A reporter called in the evening and found sub-com- mittees scattered around in various rooms evidently hard at work. MT. Pearce, the campaign manager, was seen and in regard to what had been done, he said:
 We have not only been receiving assur- ances of support from the former support CTS of MT. Parker like Jno. c. Pugh, z. T. Randolph, Barnes Morgan, Will K. Terry, Robert H. Thach and many others, but we are also having great many of MT. Dren- nen's friends to say that they will support MT. Smith.
 Tn reference to the statement I have made in regard to Mir. Smith receiving the support of a majority of Mir Parker's friends it can be verified by canvass among the business and the different shops"
 The Smith forces are evidently making good use of the short time left in which to work, and the race promises to increase in temperature as the last day approaches. Their headquarters are continually crowd ed with supporters, and nothing is being left undone. MT. Smith expressed himself last night as being perfectly confident of winning, and said that he was willing at amy time to make show down with the Drennen people on the eX-Parker strength over which there has been such contest.

Obtaining Money Under False Pre-.
lenses.

A man giving his name as G. A.
Buchanan was arrested and fined $40
aud costs today upon complaint Of G..
9. Shiuiiyer, charged with obtaining
money under false pretenses. In Jus.
tice Burlette's court this afternoon
he broke down and cried while being
questioned about the crime. His wife
is in hospital at Wichita and he
came here to work and send her
money. He admitted his guilt. The
money was spent fer whisky.
Buchanan has been here a week or
ten days. Shinliver advanced him
Sl.25 to pay the freight and drayage
on kit OF tools, upon his promise to
come to work and repay the loan.
Buchanan spent the money for drink
and borrowed a similar amount OF f.
D. Whited, proprietor Of a boarding
house, on the same pretense and spent
the money for drink. He attempted
to borrow Sl,25 Of Peter Schaurer, but
did not succeed. He stole some tools
of Thited and sod them to Pray &
Thomas. He is now in jail.-Journal,

The Sidewalk Ordinance HISS Teeth.

1t has been claimed by those Oppos-
ed TO the cement sidewalk ordinance
that ID has no teeth, aud therefore
cannot bite, for the reason that the
ordinance contains no provisions pro.
vidlng penalty in case the ordinance
was violated. 1t will be found, upon
an intelligent investigation, that the
penalty provisions OF the Old sidewalk
ordinance were not repealed by the
new ordinance. This is the view the
city attorney and council take OF it,
and last Eight the council gave fore
ib!e lesson to those who have an in
clinatiOn to disObey the ordinance, by
condemning a new board walk erected
by E. r. DeYOe in front Of his resi-.
dence property In the Third ward and
ordering him TO put down cement or
vitriaed brick walk instead.
Last year DeYOe bought the DR..
Maggard property on South + street
adjoining Mayor Kramer on the north.
he walk 10 front Of the property has
been in very poor condition for several
months. When the new street COM
missioner assumed the duties Of his
Office, he ordered the walk repaired or
rebuilt. The stringers were complete
ly rOtled out and the top boards were
50 loose that in walking oyer them
pedestrians would occasionally catch
their toes in them and yank them out
Of place. .Day before yesterday work
men were sent to repair the walk
They found the stringerS completely
rO'ted OuL; indeed, only very few
feet Of the original stringers remained,
but the top boards were in fairly
good condition. Instead OF relaying
the walk with brick or cement, as the
new ordinance provides, brand new
stringers we're laid yesterday and the
Old top boards replaced. The new
ordinance was ignored entirely. Last
night the council, in special session,
condemned the repaired walk aud
ordered the street commissioner to see
that vitritled brick or cement walk
was built in its place. II DeYOe neg.
lects rebuilding the walk, the city
will do it for him and tax the costs
against the property in the manner
provided for by the old sidewalk ordi-
nance.

The city council, in adjourned ses-
sion last night, adopted the recon-
mendatiOn Of the finance committee
Rn regard to the refuDding of the
union depot bonds and instructed the
committee to confer with brokers and
report at the next meeting. The
committees Recommendation was that
the city refund $4,000 of the SAC, 900
Issue due March |, 1919, at not to
exceed Il per cent, to become due in
ten years.
The committee also recommended
chat $4,000 of the original issue be
allowed 10 stand as they row are, or
put in such shape that they can be
matured by the city at its pleasure.
and that the payment of the SIS 900
issue be provided for by a levy of 5
mills and the cash now on hand in the
sinking fund. By continuing this
levy, not only this issue of bonds can
be provided for, but if similar policy
is continued, an ample sinking fund
will be on hand to take care of the
issue of $4,000 railway aid bonds when
they are due in 1910. II this policy is
adopted, the levy for the interest
fund can be gradu!ly redl ce | so that
the taxation will not be as heavy as il
@Ould be under different policy If a
greater levy for interest aid a less
levy for the sinking fund. L. L,

bonds, but neither made a definite
bid. The finance committee will

Pe-ru-na works tremendously with

if there is cure for consumption
Pe-ru-na is the remedy.

daughter, Mrs. L. Keene. She says:
Pe-rn-na Medicine Co., COlmbNs,O.
DEAR SIRs:-"My daughter had every
symptom of consumption-suppression
of menses, night sweats and great ema-
citation. She was SO low that none OF
our neighbors thought she could live.
In May Mr.. c. Z. Adams, of this place,
who had taken Pe-ru-na, told me if
anything would help her Pe-ru-na
would. got bottle of it and some
rock candy and began giving it 10 her.
During the first few days she was so
weak she could only take half tea
spoonful at a time, but / gave it to
her as often as she could bear it. In
less than week she could walk two
hundred yards and back without rest
ing; she kept getting stronger, and in
twelve months she seemed to be as well
as she ever was in her life. feel, and SO
does every one that knew about her
sickness, THAT Pe-ru-na saved her life.

THE RELIEF CONDEMNED.

SAN FRANCISCO, September s.
The hospital ship Relief was condemn
ed yesterday by local Inspectors of
Hulls and Boilers Bolles and Bulger so
far as the carrying of passengers is
concerned.
The hospital ship Relief, according to
Government Officials here, will not be
made useless by her condemnation. She
will sail for Manila about September
18th and will carry her force of sur
geOns and nurses. At Manila she will
serve as a permanent floating hospital
in the bay. The ruling of the inspectors
does not prevent her from carrying sur
geons and nurses any more than it does
carrying a crew.
