CITY COUNCIL.

Owing to Monday of last week being
legal holiday, the regular meeting of
the city council was not held until
Tuesday evening. At that time quite a
number of petitions were presented, the
most important being the laying larger
water mains on several of the streets,
by the owners of property on jefferson
street, between Third and Fourth to
improve the same by putting in curb
stones, etc.; by David Brands for a
license to conduct a saloon in the
Trudeau building, corner of Main and
Washington streets; by Mrs. Burns,
for license to conduct saloon in the
fremont House, which was refused on
the statement by the chief of police that
the applicant was not fit person to
whom license should be granted; by
the jackson Milling Co. to build a
switch across First avenue was denied.
A claim was made by Esther Evanson
for 800 for damages. Claiming that
the city sewer running through her lot,
on Grand avenue, had broken in such
a way as to empty on top the hill in
stead of in the river at the foot of the
hill, this had done much damage to the
rear of the lot
Albert Rapraeger resigned as sewer
age assessor.
1t was decided to build sewer on
Stewart avenue from Third to Fifth
streets, and the clerk ives instructed to
advertise for bids.
The matter of the Jefferson street
sewer between Fifth and Seventh
streets was laid over until the next
meeting.
The finance committee submitted the
following which was adopted
To his honor the mayor and common council, Wau-
sau, Wis
Gentlemen:-Your committee on finance respect
fully submit the following estimates of the amounts
necessary to defray the expenses OF the city govern
ment for the ensuing year

WOMAN AUTOMOBILE DRIVER.
s. York officials to a Member
Of the Gentler Sex a@A4

The first permitswhich has been
granted to a woman to run an auto
mobile in Central park was issued by
Park Commissioner Clausen to Flor
ence E. Woods, 1872 West Eighteenth
street. Miss Woods is about 20s years
old, and when she applied recently
for a permit Commissioner Clausen
was doubtful of her ability to man
age such machine. Miss Woods as
sured him, however, that she was
quite capable, and added that if the
commissioner would come out on Fifth
avenue in front of the arsenal she
would prove it. Commissioner Clau-
sen sent Secretary Willis Holly to in
vestigate.
Miss Woods asked him to get in the
automobile, which was light runa-
bout, and they started away. They
rode up the avenue as far as Seventy
second street at a tearing pace; then
she turned into the park and came
back again.
Secretary Hollis reported when they
reached the arsenal that Miss Woods
was an expert, and on his recommend
alton the permit was granted.

Mistaken Exaggerations.

1t has been stated that the standard
Mesaba bessemer ores have been
offered and refused on the Cleveland
docks at price of So ton. This is
probably somewhat exaggerated. 1t
has Also been stated that all explor-
ing operations are ceasing on the
Minnesota ranges, and that those who
had taken leases for discovery and
sale to mining companies were finding
no market. There is no truth in the
statement that all explorations are
ceasing. for all the large consuming
companies are not changing their
poHcy, though some are, and specula-
tive explorers are finding their mark
ct cut to pieces for bodies of ore under
lease, especially if these bodies are
not of high grade. The situation
now and in the future will rest with
quality, especially on the Mesaba
range, for such vast deposits of low
grade ores are now known to exist
there that they are of little present
value, especially if they carry any
royalty.

Three New Warships Planned fos

- Pslnt % FlgAftas Rseesv eDesA
80 Cea1 Capacity TAev VIII ssss
psss Ahything Mew AAeAt
- the World.

Designs for the greatest battleshipa
ever projected for the American navy
have been agreed upon BY the naval
board Of construction after several
months Of discussion over tho ampoS-
tant questions of battery. armor. speed.
coal capacity and displacement. The
three new vessels,-to be called the
Georgia, the New Jersey and the Penn.
syivania-will equal In formidability
the finest line of battleships Jet lai6
down by any foreign power. and. with
the addition of typical American I'm
provements, will surpass In fighting
force any ships now afoat.
The salient features of the design
contemplate displacement Of approx
imately $4,000 tons. as compared with
the Oregon's 1900 or the New Names
1880. The speed is to be ''at least 10
knots" with q coal bunker capacity OF
1000 tonA
There Will be two superimposed tur-
rets, one fore and the other aft. each
containing two 12-inch and two s-inch
guns OF the new elongated bore and
high smokeless powder velocity. The
remaining guns Of the main battery
will consist of IL s-inch quick-flre in
broadside. This arrangement Of bat
terry has been finally adopted, instead
of an alternative plan which provided
for four 12inch guns in turrets and Is
6-inch broadside, which had been put
forward TO avoid the expedient OF SUI
perimposed turrets. The two-story
turrets, which are distinctively
American innovation as applied to
the Kearsarge and the Kentucky,
are regarded as no longer of doubt
full success, and It is known that
foreign governments are preparing to
adopt them to secure the concentra
ton and angle of fire they afford, which
is unapproached by any other expedi-
ent. a..
The board also definitely determined
upon the use of the most modern
Kruppized armor for the new vessels,
its precise distribution to be decided
upon after the chief constructor had
made sufficient progress with the ac-
tual plans to determine the proper ar
rangement Of weights. The armor
problem has been the most difficult to
solve, and to this cause is attributable
the delay in planning the ships.
The total cost of each of these three
ships, when ready for sea, will exceed
100000 each. They will cruise 1000
miles straightaway, and there will not
be three ships of similar offensive and
defensive strength in the feet Of any
possible enemy.
