REMARKS BY THE MAYOR.
"lll not deliver a formal address 10
Council tonight" said Mayor Young.
But | wish to make Il few remarks.
l think that the outgoing Council by
annexing contiguous territory to this
city, performed an act that should
cause II to be remembered with graft
tude by the citizens of Akron The
Council made it's mistakes and was
obliged to take considerable abuse.
and in this the new Council will be no
exception. That man is not a good
citizen or capable representative of
tle people whose works In public life
az merely for the.g good of the party to
which he belongs. His only devotion
should be to the people. II man per
forms his honest duty well, he need
have 10 fear A quality of vital i'm
poitancc TO a public official is back
bone. He should be able to resist the
willy pleadiilgs Of the paid agents of
the corporations. 80
Among otheEatlilngs, Mayor Young
referred to the value Of franchises, and
the care that shohld be exercised by
Council in granting them. "The fran
chisc of tho street railway company"
he said. "is worth S1,50o,GOO to tho
company. yet they We're given it al
most absolutely free, receiving only the
allowance of 5000 for Improvement
of East Market ST. We should have
held the long end of the string in this
matter. The Council cannot afford to
swallow sugar-coated pills
Mr.. Marilc and Ma. Paul were ap-
pointed i committee to escort President
Eiebegcr TO the chair. In taking charge
OF his position, Mr.. Fiebcger said Eel
low members: The honor you have

Tn. Tomato - i. Tonic.

According to the North American
Practitioner. DR.. True OF Philadelphia
has made quite extensive experiments
with the juice OF the red tomato for
the purpose OF discovering its virtues
as medicine. DR.. True's investiga-
tions have led him to adopt the Juice
OF the tomato in cases in which the
blood needs toning UP. The United
States government and the German
government have also made expert
ments. and many facts of interest have
been discovered. During the recent
war with Spain the Juice of the tomato
was utilized extensively as a health
preservative among certain bodies of
troops, with results which were emi-
nently satisfactory.

and feature. It was shortly after the
marriage OF Miss Virginia Fair to VII
Lam X. Vanderbilt, Jr.. and her arrival
n this city that Miss Eddy noticed q
marked change in the attitude Of the
storekeepers Of Newport toward her
when she had occasion to visit their
establishments. The treatment Of her

could not account for It and II was in

Of this kind Miss Eddy began to won

establishment when she was ad-
dressed as Mrs. Vanderbilt. The Sit

brunette like fash, and In a spirit
Of fun she concluded not to enlixhten
the florist as TO his mistake. The nov-

she had received was rather too pleas

purchases did not seem to attract the
attention Of the storekeepers from the
fact perhaps, that Mrs. Vanderbilt has
already acquired the reputation Of be-
ing q thrifty housewife. For nearly
three months this had been kept up.
and now that Mrs Vanderbilt has be-
como a familiar figure here and ia
known to every one In Newport Miss
Eddy hnds that on visiting a store she
b now treated with less distinguished
courtesy. The situation Is all the
more humorous to the young lady, as

TROLLEY CARS IN mARsElLlEs

From the New York Tribuue: For

least in streets served by electricity.
About two years ago the Compagnie
General Franchise De Tramways OF
Paris secured the necessary concession
for working the revolution now In
progress in Marseilles. Before the
close OF 1899 1t Is probable that all the
principal thoroughfares Of the latter
city will have trolley cars In opera
tion. The uniform fare for short and
long rides will be 10 centimes. or
cents of American money. Hitherto II
has been customary to charge 1 cents
for rides beyond certain limit The
concession will expire In 1850. Not
only must the company pay the city
an annual fee OF 10000 for the use Of
the streets. and an additional tax based
on receipts after these exceed 31.400.-

II wants. The state may require the

COAL MINE EXPLOSION.

Thirteen Known Dead and Many Missing.
AT least thirteen miners were killed
by an explosion that occurred Saturday
morning at 10 o'clock at the mines OF
the Southern Coal & Transportation
company at Berry's Burg, West Vir-
sinia.
The dead are Ollie Marks, pit boss;
Andrew Blackwell, Albert Brown,
Lawrence Duncan, Pack Adams, and
seven others whose names are not OBJ
tainable.
William Marks and James Jackson
were fatally injured
The force of the explosion was so
great that two men were found sixty
feet from the mouth of the mine. An
hour after the explosion hundreds had
visited the mine. The sight was
most horrible one. Strewn along the
main channel and about the opening
were the arms, legs, hands and other
portions of the bodies of the dead
miners. The miners insist that the
explosion was caused by fire damp.

The beach was practically worked out
last year. The tundra is believed to
be rich but it would require larger
capital to produce results. There is a
large area of country which has not
been prospected, where gold can yet
be found but it requires men of ex-
periencs to develop such a country.
