BIDDER WON

HIS TENDER RECONSTRUCTED
Rejection Claimed to Have Been Due

tract for a proposed sewer on Thomas

lection of his bid for a similar improve

stance their report to the council was
that he was an Irresponsible Bidder.
Johpsons failure to land the Whitall
contract. in Which he was nearly $500
lower than any of his fellow contra ctors,
was due to the fact that ne asked TO have
his bid Withdrawn, asad@thiss Assembly
man Nelson explained was because of the
fact that someHof tfe-othef bidders had
hxsd up a scheme t. scare him, On the
other contract, he was unsuccessful be-
cause he haasn3a dsra- trivial error in his

SAssemblyman Nelson spoke for Mr.
johnson, and succeeded in having sent
back to the board the order, With instruc-
tons to give him the w hitall $scontract,
but he was unable to secure, approval of
a, similar resolution for, the Thomas
street sewer. In this case William Pres

The question of matchmaking Irvine

those who own property along it, has been
settled. BY a decisive vote last night the
assembly decided on carrying out the
Improvement, but the decision was not

sanitary condition of the neighborhood
demanded that it be improved.
The contest was a war of words and
While evidently imbued with spirit of
good will, threatened several times to
break out into personalities of a decided

Richards Gordon led the argument.

thoroughfare, lies in the rear of the
palatial residences that line Summit ave-

templated has furnished a. decidedly in

thoroughfare.
At the close last night the warning
factions shook hands and agreed to al

SECRETS WOMEN KEEP At THE PRICE
Of Of :, SUFFERING.

A woman usually sspasses through sew
eral stages on her-.way to that condition
of semi-invalidism which limits the ac-
tivities of SO many of her sex. For a
time she Suffers in silence and ignor-
ance, not able to rela.. her sufferings to
their proper cause : womanly disease.
When, presently, she makes the discov-
cry that her general health is related to
the local womanly health, she casts
about for help. She dislikes to see the
physician, she shrinks from talking to a
stranger of the intimate matters of her
woman's life, and when at last misery
drives her to the doctor, her modesty is
up in arms at the faintest hint of exami-
nation, and she finds excuse to put the
matter off and goes home to endure an
other period of suffering.

BOURNE IN COURT
ARRAIGNED ON TWO INDICTMENTS
AND ENTERS PLEA OF NOT
GUILTY
PRISONER WALKED JAUNTILY
Shows No Effects of Confinement
.. Grand Jury still Considering
Other Charges Against
Bourne.

Walter B. Bourne. clean shaven and
nattily dressed, faced Judge Bum in the
district court yesterday afternoon IN
answer to the two indictments returned
by the grand jury, charging him with
forgery and tamper.ng with records in
the county auditors office.
ID. w. LAWYER represented Nj. Bourne
and in answer to the stereotyped query.
returned a plea of not guilty for his
client. He also waived the reading Of
the charges, whereupon Judge Bum
gave him until Thursday to demur.
Thanks to daily walks. and an o.
casional dinner at his farm home, Bourne
does. not show the effects of his enforced
confinement. He has probably lest some
flesh. but it is hardly noticeable. To
friends in the court room yesterday he
extended greetings, and when the pre-
liminaries were completed walked
jauntily away to the Jail with a deputy
sheriff as his companion.
The graE:i jury is still IT work the
charges preferred against Bourne, and Is
expected TO return additional counts in i
few days.
