TELEPHONE QUESTION

The ordinance committee of the city
council met last night for a final con-
sideration of the Bills & Workman and
Illinois Independent company tele-
phone ordinances preparatory to thu
formulating of report and recon-
mendation TO the city council at its
adjourned session this evening. Both
ordinances were gone over by Sec
tions, but the committee failed to
reach decision on account of the alb
sence of the city attorney. whose adj
vice was desired on legal questions
pertaining to the ordinances. The
committee, it was stated, expected to
get together this afternoon and pre-
pare report.
M j Carney, general manager of
the Central Union Telephone company,
dropped into the city this morning
and may be heard at the council
meeting tonight.
L. Bills is here on behalf of B lis

$3.50 TAKEN IN so FAR
ATTHE RUMMAGE SALE.

The biggest crowd yet was present
at the rummage sale last evening. 1t
is estimated that there were not less
than 1000 people in the building at
one time. The. sales for the day
amounted to SIG. making total for
the three days of $3.50. The sale will
close tomorrow night. but there will
be no cutting of prices IN order to
dispose of any articles of real value
that may be lefe on hand. Neither
will there be an auction. but the goods
left will either be given outright to
the mission or savei for the next
sale.
Considerable rummage remains to
be collected, as there is some trouble
in getting persons to go with the
wagons and look after the goods. The
demand for ove-costs is very great
and it is not too late to send them in
for the sale. Mage zines, bibles an
dress skirts are mostly needed.
The ladies in charge of the refresh
ment booth desire to announce that a
warm lunch will be served tomorrow
evening for the benefit of those clerks
and business men who are on duty in
the evening. Ry taking advantage of
this it will not be necessary for them
to 60 home to supper. The price
will be IS cents.
