PEOPLE WONDER WHY.
Queer Action of Committee in Refus-
ing Services of Banda Rossa.

The famous Banda Rossas which is to
give a series of concerts here this week,
offered its services free of charge to the
committee to play one or more selec-
tions for the Thursday memorial ser
vices at the Auditorium. The commit
tee refused the proffered assistance, on
the ground that the band is a foreign
organization.
This action of the committee has
aroused a great deal of unfavorable
comment. The city hall was full of an
imated discussion of the subject this
morning, and the opinion generally ex-
pressed was that the committee had
shown a narrow and unWise prejudice.
Il never heard OF such an absolutely
insane and unreasonable thing as re
fusing the Banda Rosa a place on the
programmed said City Clerk Squires.
Il think it was a generous and graceful
offer for the band to make, and / be-
lieve the committee should have accept
ed it gladly. If there were dozen for
eign bands here to offer their services,
it would be a splendid idea to have
them all play"
Other city officials expressed the
same sentiment, and the feeling gen
orally was that the committee had
made q serious blunder.

The secretary Of the treasury yester-
day purchased 81. $4,000 long term 4 per
cent bonds at s140 dat and $1,000 short
fours at s112S429. If an Individual
were to do business as Uncle Sam does
his neighbors would have him in an
asylum for the insane in week. Yet
this thing of mortgaging the country
to obtain cash and then buying up the
evidences Of debt at a premium has
been going on ever since Mr.. Cleveland
started it during his first term he
bought bonds at a premium during his
first term and issued new ones during
his second During President McKin-
Iey's first term more bonds were issued
and now Secretary Gage is buying at
a premium Of 40 per cent.

MK1NLEY. TIE NAN.

IFrom the Chicago Record-Herald-l
A mans true character always asserts
Itself at the critical moments when it is
most severely tested. and the first traits
revealed In President Mckinley by his
trial were unselfishness, devotion. char
tty and a patient courage.
Though the order of the utterances
ascrlbed to him Immediately after the
shooting varies somewhat in the vari-
Gus dispatches, the complete absence of
any thought OF self IS emphasized in
them all It is reported that he said OF
Czolgosz God forgive him. and Let
no one hurt him" He also expressed
his regret that he had been the cause
OF trouble to the exposition. as if in
that moment he were a humble citizen
who IN some strange way had embar-
raised q great public enterprise. This
simplicity. so like Lincolns. speaks of
the homely environments OF his bringing
up, Of the long exercise Of the art Of not
making trouble which does so much to
beautify the life Of the plain people.
But the quick solicitude which the
anxious husband evinced for his frail
and delicate wife viii impress the ma
ton more deeply than anything else
and bring him nearer than ever to the
hearts and homes OF his countrymen- It
was the natural. inevitable impulse Of a
devotion which can never be fully set
forth by written or spoken word
Amid all the heavy cares and respon-
sibilities OF his high official life Presi-
dent AIcKinley's dearest thought has
been Tor the woman to whom his love
was dedicated 1t has been 30 during
his Rresidenox. 1t was 50 when he 90

The last of the houses on the Santa
Fe land has been acquired by the COM
mittee in charge Of the land deal. and
the nine houses now unsold viii be ad-
vertised and bids viii be received for
them till September 2S
OF the nine houses remaining, several
are very good ones, and viii doubtless
bring good prices. This viii be the last
opportunity to buy houses at auction
from the city.

owned by A. v NewboId, and for some
time the deal with Mr. Newbold has

ANOTHER NEW SEWER.
One Will Be Built From First Street
to Kansas River.

A new sewer viii probably be laid
from First street direct to the Kansas
river back of the new Parkhurst-Davls
building, for the purpose of carrying of
the storm water. The sewer viii be a
large one, three feet or more in diam
eter, and win have laterals reaching 70
Kansas avenue and Jackson street
Plans and estimates for the sewer
are being prepared by City Engineer
McCabe, and viii be submitted TO the
next meeting of the council, on October
s. 1t is thought that the sewer VIII
cost about $7OO. If the sewer IS over
three feet in diameter, it will be built
of brick. If under three feet, it will
be of tile.
The object Of this sewer is to keep the
water which falls during heavy rains
from flooding the cellars and base
ments in the vicinity of First and kan
sas avenue. 1T would be better for
the city to build this sewer said City
Engineer McCabe today, than to have
a bill for a thousand dollars or so for
damage to pay for injury done by
water which the present sewers can
not take care of "
There are at present two small sew
ers, one twelve inches in diameter and
one nine, but there is too much water
to be carried out of the way by them
