Their Streets.
 The board of councilmen at the regu- lar meeting held last night transacted large batch of routine business, but no new business of special importance came up except resolution presented by Councilman Sullivan, of the Third ward. This resolution provides that the mayor shall appoint commission to consist of four members of the court of common council and five citizens to look into the present methods of assess ment and taxation of property in New Haven, which is alleged to be unjust, and hold meetings and give hearings to citizens, and then, after having heard the opinions of citizens to draft bill praying for such changes in the present law as, from the opinions expressed at the hearings, shall be deemed desirable and feasible.
 The resolution provides that such a bill, after having been drafted, shall be presented in the legislature of 1903 The resolution was referred to the commit tee on legislation.
 The board concurred with the alder men in granting to the Manufacturers Street Railroad company permission to extend its line across the Ferry street drawbridge to the property of the Ma tional Wire corporation, and in refer ring the bids for sprinkling streets in which there are car tracks back to the director of public works with instruc- tions to advertise for new bids.
 When this matter came up Council man Dawson of the Tenth ward, nov ed to concur with the aldermen in re- ferring the bids back, and his motion prevailed, there being no opposition and the members evidently not realizing what was being done. After the mo- tion had been passed Councilman Har- kins, of the Twtlfth ward, asked that an aye and nay vote be taken on the question, and his request was granted The vote resulted in 1T for referring back the bids and 16 against. Later in the meeting Councilman Sullivan, of the Third ward, asked for a reconsid- l

Death of s, A, B, Harman,

Mr. Simeon Armstrong Bert Har-
man, the only surviving child of the
late C,ptain W. D. HarmaD, breath
ed his last at the home of his mother
in this place last Sunday afternoon
after an illness of some weeks. Just
previous to his death he was follow
ing bis trade in Columbia and while

terminated fatal. He was conscious
that the Pickering fame of life was
near extinsion for he remarked to
several of his acquaintances, who
were on The train with him the day
be last came over, that he was COM
ing home to die" Mr.. Harman was
to his friends steadfast and true.
To those to whom he gave his friend
ship he could net do enough for.
Those ones whom be conceived a
dislike he left alone and did not 60
about them. He had many faults,
and who among us have not, which
should be buried with him in the
grave. His virtues were more prom
inent than his faults and we find
much in his character to respect and
revere and these will be cherished
by those who enjoyed bis confidence.
His remains were inferred in St.
Stephens cemetery Monday after
noon in the presence of relatives,
friends and acquaintances. The
Revs. J. G.. Graichen, ]. N. Wright
and W. D. Quick oficiated in the
burial ceremonies. He leaves a wife
by second marriage, three sons by
his first marriage and mother
together with other relatives and
friends to mourn his departure.

Frank N. Nunnamaker is Dead.

We learn that Mr.. FraHk n. Nun
namaker died at the home of his
father in Irmo last Monday.
Mr.. Nunnamaker had been i'll for
some time and made gallant fight
for life, but the fatal malady had
made such inroads upon his consti-
tuition that medical skill and careful
nursing by loving hands could not
arrest its progress and claimed him
for the grave.
He was a bright and promising
young man with cultivated mind
which was refined by extensive travel
and observation. His death is a loss
to Lexington county in general and
to the community in which he resid-
ed in particular. The family has
the sympathy of every one in their
afiictior.
