THE city council, without consulting
the wishes of the people, is proceeding
with the city hall proposition. Since
the taxpayers must pay for this city
building they are entitled to know
something OF the councils intentions.
Z 1t is understood that plans for city
building have been drawn and all ar
ranRements made for construction. AS
we understand 1t, the council proposes
to tie up the city for 80 years, have a
|. building put up and pay is per cent
interest on an investment which no
one but interested parties understand.

BOSTON TO FIGHT
Every Physician Will Report
ell COnsumptiye Cases,

Boston, May 25.-Henceforth every
physician must report to the board OF
health all cases of consumption. Dis
infection must be performed after the
removal or death Of the patient.
This is tie substance of an order
just issued by the Boston board OF
health. In connection with this order
it is stated that consumption headed
the list of causes of death last year,
the total mum Der being ,226.
Besides the order to physicians just
issued, the board of health is getting
out circular giving direction TO con-
sumptives as to the best means of san
itations and rules of health.
DR.. Durgiu, of the health board said
today:
"Boeton is one of the worst places
on earth for consumption. The board
of health has decided that every pre-
caution must be taken to prevent its
spread. Consumption used to be cou-
sidered an hereditary disease. Medi-
cal science, however, has proven that
it is a purely contagious disease, and
one of the worst there is.
"Tbe consumptive expectorates.
His eputum is loaded with germs.
hence the great danger. The circular
we are publishing contins the follow
ing directions:
"The patient should spit only in
cups or cloths especially prepared for
the purpose and disinfected with car
bolic acid.
.'Consumptives should not kiss.
mo consumptive should sleep in
the same room with anyone else.
Clothing, knives, forks, spoons,
plates, cups ETC., used by patients
should be thoroughly disinfected after
each meal.
ARTICLES of food, especially milk
should not be used by the family af-
Ger standing for any length of time in
the room used by the patient.
Male consumptives should not
wear boards or moustaches."

COUNCILMEN FIGHT.

A Free For All Comes Near Being the
Result.
The city council was an unusually
interesting body last night. What
might have been a big free-for all
fight was suppressed by the city mar
shall who was present.
The council had almost finished its
routine work and was considering or
dinances. The salary ordinance was
mp and some hot things were said.
The consideration resulted in striking
out the enacting clause, which killed
it. Hewitt was conducting a fight on
reducing the salaries. Here is where
the strife commenced. The sewerage
franchise was called up and q motion
to lay it on the table carried. The
chairman Of the public improvement
committee moved to reconsider, and in
talking on his motion took occasion to
skin, 30 to speak, hs.city administra-
ton in an awful manner. The editor
of the Daily Capital was an especial
subject of the speech. The speech
irritated the members somewhat and
when he got through a motion to
adjourn was made and seconded. The
ayes and nays were taken and the
mayor declared the session adjourned.
Councilman Hewitt approached the
mayor with criticism on his gag rule
and said some things distasteful, to
which Saunders objected by slapping
Hewitt in the face. The city marshal
interfered and quieted the row.
From the opening of the session all
the members were feeling grouchy and
took turn about saying mean things.
When the motion was made to strike
out the enacting clause of the salary
bill Perkins objected His point was
that it would Kill the ordinance, and
he did not want to see that done.

"What would | have done, Harry"
he would say at times "if you had not
taken care of me? | had felt i'll all
that day, and my head had been

Then Harry would say how pleased
he was. how fortunate it was that he
happened to be at the station, and how
astonishcd he had felt at seeing the
face of an old college companion.
"Ihe climate of India must weaken
n fellow terribly" said Harry. You
did not look as though you would live
two days longer WHEN | saw you,
Charley; but you will soon be all right
now"
ut was not India that weakened
me-" returned Charley.
But he said no more. He never
told his friends how he had loved and
married. and how his wife had de-
ceived him. He spoke only of his
great desire to get back to India as
soon as possible.
Do YOU want TO shoot or be shot atY'
asked Harry, impaGently. Get well
first, and then we will talk about
India"
But the getting well was slow work.
There was the deep fostering wound
which nothing could close or heal.
There was the remembrance of the
fair gentle girl he had loved at Upton
and the remembrance of the woman
who had knelt and called him back ia
forgive her Long, drcary weeks
passed, and still the time had not come
when he could be called well.

A London anntomist is authority
for the statement that the ideal foot
should ne the length Of the ulna. n
bone in the forearm. which ex-
tends from protuberance in the outer
portion of the wrist to the elbow. or
course, the ulna is longer in tail peo-
pie, and TO be graceful the foot should
be also.
Many people may be surprised that
the foot should be as long as the fore
arm. and might be inclined to dispute
the fact unless proved by demonsha-
ton, But it is in the perfectly
formed woman.
