Of health officer be discharged by one
person
Ordinance No. 1856. relating to the
cemetery. and provides That death
certificates may be filed with city
clerk by regular physician, coroner
or health officer only.
Regular bills against water and
general funds were allowed.
The matter Of delinquent water
taxes was up for discussion and re-
vealed the facts: that some water
users are delinquent in payment for
two years; that Others permit water
to run on lawns all night; and
that others are not even listed for
using water. These matters were all
referred to water committee.
Water is very low in the river and
the question of water through the
city ditch was discussed. A propo-
sition was submitted to supply those
users living south of the ditch on
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Those north of the ditch on Tuesdays,
Thursdays and Saturdays
1t is also recommended that users
of water be not permitted to sprinkle
their lawns on Sunday, thereby per-
hitting the well to ill during Sunday
hours.
1t is more than likely that special
watchmen, or spies, will be appointed
to detect those who use water unlaw-
fully all night. Any person thus de-
tected will be deprived of the use Of
water.

SACRED RELIC OF AsHANTEE.
Golden Stool Has Reen the Cause of
Many Wars with England.

Golden Stool Has Reen the Cause of
Many Wars with England.
The golden stool of Ashantee's mon
archs has for many years been the
cause of contention between the ma
tives and the British. Descriptions of
ii have been conspicuously wanting
and it has remained as mythical as the
golden fleece which Jason and the Ar
gonauts stole from the sacred oak of
-olchis or the three golden apples which
hung in the garden Of the Hesperides.
The announcement that the recent up
rising was the result OF attempts of the
governor, Sir Frederic Hodgson. to re-
eOver the sacred relic was generally in
terpreted in two ways by Americans:
Either the British were attempting TO
rob the tribesmen OF a large nugget of
precious metal or the account had some
meaning not understood, as would be
the case. for instance. with the news
Of the GROWING Of King Ki Ri Of the

one Of the richly carved arm chairs
for which the natives are famous and
kept near his usual seat When Gen-i
eral WOlseley captured Coomassie, the
Ashantee capital. in 1874, the stool had
been secretly removed and It has re-
manned ever since in the possession OF
the tribesmen. The last time white
man saw Il was seven years ago. King
Prempeh had not been able to afford
the coronation ceremonies. so he sought
a loan Of $1,000 from the British for the
purpose. When the commissioners sent
TO negotiate the affair were ushered
into the mopareh's presence band OF
musicians played on elephants tusks.
Under a large ana gorgeous canopy"
says DIR. Freeman. one Of the commits
siOners, "stood a roomy chair Of native
manufacture. studded with bright-head-
ed nails and enriched with silver orna-
ments and on this reposed the eele-
brated royal STOOL Prempeh was seat
ed on a similar chair under his own um-
brella and not under the canopy"
Early in 1900 the astute Ashantees de-
clared they could not pay taxes to a
governor who had never sat upon the
golden stool To be able to satisfy
their scruples Sir Frederic Hodgson be-
gan the search for the royal emblem
which resulted in the recent war.

Animal that Resem 5les Nan in More

The hog Of to-day constitutes no less
ihan $40 different articles Of commerce,
and next to cotton and wheat furnishes
the largest values IN exports from the
United States. Its name has become
an epitbet. Its application to man
means greed and brutlshness. 1t Is com

the puddle duck. 1t takes mud baths.
So do men. There is much virtue in

The hog is omniyorous-sO IS man. The
hog is carniyorous by chOice-sO is man.
The hog is herbivorous, graniyorous,
gramnivorous and phytivorous BY edu-
cation-so is man.
These reflections are induced by the
indignities offered a useful animal.
The hog was the cleanest Of beasts until
man built a sty and imprisoned him
in filth, fattened him on filth, killed
him in filth and ate him in filth. No
animal. wild or domestic, is so clean
iJout its bed as the hog. 1t wants pure,
sweet fresh straw every time. The
hog has brains. II has been known to
excel the pointer in seeming quail. An
authentic instance is mentioned by
Bingley in Memoirs Of British Quad
