MOulOn was made that the Dill or
c. G. Waite, of Pittsburg, for water
works plans and specifications be al
lowed soon as the city bonds are sold.
Th9re was a called meeting of the
city councilMonday night.
The street commissioners reported
that the collections from the poll tax
were coming in distressingly slow.
For the month of May the collections
were forty dollars and eighty cents,
whereas the needed street work would
easily use much more.
Bills were allowed as follows:

w, H. Mcclure, Topeka trip. 16 %
Geo. f.. Coker, labor.... ..... s 13
The council having discovered that
it was paying thirty to forty dollars a
month for the care of the street lights
decided to make new arrangement.
Ordinance No. 4l6 was read and
passed. 1t provides a penalty for
trespassing in the lola cemetery, and
especially prohibits people going there
at night. This is an abuse which has
long needed correcting and the council
favored it, all except councilman
Swartz.
Ordinance No, AIS providing for the
widening of the sidewalks about the
square and specifying the nature of
the curbing was read but action was
deferred. The councilmen differed as
to the width necessary and they will
talk the matter over and investigate
before taking action.
Ordinance No. 4l9, prohibiting the
congregating, prowling and lettering
of persons on the streets between mid
night and morning and providing a
punishment for the same was read and
passed, councilmen Swartz and Edison
being the only ones who voted "nay."
The council then adjourned to meet

W. H. Taylor. general freight ana pas
senger agent of the Houston East and
West Texas and the Houston and Shreve-
port railways. has been advised by the
secretary OF the railroad commission Of the
State OF Louisiana that that tribunal has
entered a fine Of $3.50 against him.
This was not unexpected to Mr.. Taylor.
He has recentlv returned from Baton
Rouge. where he appeared before the com
mission on a citation for contempt. the
cause therein being that he had published
a rate on cotton on the Houston and
Shreveport railway which was higher than
that allowed by the commission. Mr.. Tay-
Tor made his excuses to the commission
and agreed to withdraw the rate. He re
turned home and the commission took the
matter under Amusement, the result being
that the fine was entered Mr.. Taylor will
apply to the commission for a rehearinr
and will be represented before the rate
making tribunal by the general attorneys
OF the road.
