This was done as a preparatory action
 to ordering a special bond election for
 the purchase by the city Of the water i system.
 Councilman Fickas brought up the 1 question of band concerts interfering with church ceremonies He said he 1 was anxious to have the concerts, but i they should be held where they would
 not interfere with the church services. | Mayor Gang said that he had proposed
 the concerts at the city hall that they might not interfere with the churches MT. Fickas said that com paints were now heard from the A. RI. E. church and although the council could not dictate where the concerts should be held it could say where they should not be held. All churches should be protected.
 Councilman Sanders had another view The band has the same rights as a church. He said that church members who had spoken to him about the matter claimed they could invoke the law and receive protection, but they desired the council to take action. Mr. Sanders suggested that they claim the protection of the law.
 MT F'ickas moved a committee of three be appointed to confer with the band and the churches. CouncilmeD Fickas, Sanders and Dyer were ap- pointed.
 The sanitary condition of the Sixth Avenue hotel was again brought be- fore the council. A petition was read. which was presented to the council two years ago, praying that the own CTS of the property be restrained from putting in the inferiCr pipe, saying 1t endangered the health of the com nlunity. The city attorney was in- structed to proceed against the owner of the Sixth Avenue hCtel.
 P K. Hickey came before the coun- cil to make inquiries regarding the progress of Neri Osborn, who is ex- porting the city's books. He thought it probable that the city was uselessly expending money on that work. The work has been going on, he said, four teen days and MT. Hickey believed he could expert the books in three days 4 committee consisting of Councilmen Sanders, Morford and Fickas was ap- pointed to investigate the number of days work which will be charge5 against the city and to ascertain when 1t will be be completed.

STRONG SlrfIL ARlTY
By Which a Nervous Old Man Was
 Fooled Yesterday.

Yesterday little old man with
 scant white hair and a long alpaca
 coat was sitting in the front room of
 the sheriff's office smoking a cob pipe
 and reading a newspaper. A sound re-
 sembling snores came from the near
 loom The old man took no notice of
 the noise at first. Though a little more
 robust the snores were delivered with
 regularity Than there was a change.
 The sleeper's respiration was quick ened, but the brevity of the snores
 was more than atoned for in thaIr | loUdnsss. Suddenly the old man dropped his paper and exclaimed, My God. I never heard anything like it. Something must be the matter with
 him. He's got a nightmare" Then

There was a familiarity in the noise it made. While it was being pushed about the roots of the trees and other obstruc- tions it gave out short, quick sounds like those bnef respirations of the in the sheriff's office When there was no obstructions it went for ward with a steady rattle, not unlike that ceaseless snOre.

THE CITY COUNCIL
PrinIinn Contract Awarded and Other
 Business Transacted.

The adjourned meeting of the city council was held last night
 and all the members were present.
 The following bids for advertising were opened: Charles c. Randolph, solid nonparei1, twelve lines per inch, 49 cents per inch per insertion; the Arizona Gazette Printing company,
 twelve lines per inch, 50 cents; the Phoenix Herald, twelve lines, per inch. 5 cents.
 Councilman Fickas moved that the contract be awarded to the Gazette. Councilmen Dyer and Morford moved it be awarded to c. c. Randolph and to the Herald respectively. Coup- cilman Sanders passed his vote and Mayor Gang voted for the Arizona Ga zette, the successful bidder. It IS required to furnish a bond of $500.
 The job printing contract and bond Of $500 was executed by the H. H. Mo Neil company and approved by the city attorney was approved by the council and ordered to be executed for the city. P. T. Hurley's $500 bond was also approved.
 Councilman Dyer offered a resolu- ton reciting the defective service by the Phoenix Water company and that the company be required to comply with the terms of it's franchise, includ- ing the maintainance of the 100-foot water level in the stand tower. The resolution, as follows, was passed:
 Resolved, That in view of the many just complaints from good citi- zens against the Phoenix Water com pany in regard to it's insufficient ser -s.z known failure to supply the necessary water and pressure it contracted to do under it's franchise from the city of Phoenix, and because Of the fact that the said company has known for years that the smallneSs and rotten condition of the pipe they were unable to supply the city of Phoenix and citizens with suf- ficient water during a dry season, and the fact that they made no effort to remedy the existing evils, and now they are unable to furnish water sui ffcient to meet the needs of the people and the city is absolutely without ad- equalte fire protection in case Of big fire,
 Therefore, the common council Of the city of Phoenix hereby demands that the Phoenix Water company shall comply with all its obligations to the city of Phoenix and that the water in the stand tower be held and maintained at an elevation of 100 feet from this date"
 The water situation was discussed at length and the discussion was closed ] by the council instructing City En- ! gineer Sam Davison to investigate the | probable value of the City Water com | pany system and note the difference l in pressure as compared with that 1 given in the report made last fall. 1

JUDGE HACKNEY cF GLOBE.
The Declining Years Of the Editor of
 the Silver Belt.

Globe, Ariz., June 15.-(Special cor
 resPcndence of The RepEbEcan.)- )- Newspaper men in Arizona who know the quality Of mind and character ot
 Judge 4. H. Hackney of the Silver
 Belt, will regret to learn that he has
 suffered a stroke of paralysis from
 which he suffers much pain. His en-
 tire right side is palalvzed and he can- not raise himself from his chair. H.e conversation is laIb0red and som 2: painful, but the visitor in his sanc1un1 never hears word of complaint from the judge. I have freCusntiy been im- pressed with the magnetism of tEis venerable editor. He draws about h m the bsst minds Of the community, ard in his helpless condition he is seldom Without some admiIing visitor wh0 reads to him or listens to s-me story CT his early life. His memory seems to have lost the har&enings Of the later days and his conversation is al- ways directed in renia;scence of days far back in the early history of our country's growth
 He frequently embarasses you with a recital of some historic event which you have never heard of and his sharp eyes and piercing glance bring flush to your cheeks when you are com pelled to admit that you are ignorant of his topic. He saw Lafayette ride into Mercer, Pa, and he recalls tho accession as though it happened but yesterday. He camped with Kit Car son on the plains, and he was assoc ated with newspaper work in St Louis and New Orleans when those cities were in the first stages of their development. He talks about George Napp, the founder of the St Louis Republic. as though he were still edit ing that paper. T like the course Of President-what is your presidents name?" he said to me. T think he has taken ths right stand in regard to the Philippines, aEL I admire him for it,
 Judge Hackney came to Globe dur ing the silver excitement when Nun sen found his gI5at chunk Of native silver in the hills near this camp He nan.ed his paper the Silver Belt, but time has robbed tt of it's connection with the Globe of today.

The only possibility of a further hitch is believed to be reduced solely to the question of the nearness of the provisional boundary to the Indian village of Klukwan Canada has fought for port On tidewater, but has been strenuously opposed in this by the United States. The line which has been accepted by Great Britain, sub jec5 to Canada's approval, runs little to the north of Klukwan and is about fifteen miles above Pyramid harDor, the end of tidewater.

A MoDUs VIvENDI IN ALASKA.
Mr. Choate and Lord Salisbury Said to
 Have Reached an Agreement

London, June -15.-It is believed now ] that there is little cause for appre- hension as to the settlement Of a modus vivendi in the Alaskan boun- dary question. The subject of Pyra- mid harbor was settled some time ago,
 and after the arrangement arrived at
 on Tuesday in regard to Dalton s
 Trail only a few minor pcints re-
 nained to be cleared up.
 The location of tho Indian village Of
 Klukwan was the principal difficulty,
 and Ambassador Choate and Lord Salisbury have since conferred in re-
 gard to it. They met at the drawing room this afternoon and the matter
 WAS settled England probably con- eed:ng the White and Chilkoot noun tins. The delimitation is not expected to be difficult.
 Washington, June 15.-No official rGwS has been received here to justify the conclusion that the arrangement of a modus vivendi in regard to the Alaskan boundary dispute is assured, but the government is very hopeful that the agreement reached in London between Lord Salisbury and Ambas- sador Choata will be adhered to. Cau- ada is still the uncertain quantity in the negotiations and on what the Dominion government has to say will depend an adjustment of the embar- rassing question at this time The au- thorities here, however, will be very much surprised and chagriued if Canada does not accept the plan of temporary settlement. Should the Dominion government interpose rad:- cal objections, or, in fact, any objec, tiGns there will be good ground, it is c0ntendeid, for accusing it of a lack Of good fa:th.J
