FILED SUIT
Or. Cooley Wants 1870. Claimed for
Services in the County,
Was Special Smallpox Physician and
Fiscal Court Refused to Pay.

Attorneys Campbell and Campbell
have filed q suit in circuit court for
DR.. MN. Cooley against the members
Of the fiscal board and County Judge
r. T. Lightfoot TO enforce action on a
claim of $3.50 that DR.. Cooley holds
against the county by virtue of his
appointment last February by the
county board of health as special
smallpox physician in this county.
DR.. Cooley was authorized to go to
woodville during the smallpox scare
by the county board and do the neo-
essary fascinating and to see that
the quarantine laws were complied
with. The work consumed thirteen
days and DR.. Cooley presented his
bill for $3.50. No action was taken
on the claim by the board, although
il has been presented more than
once. The petition asks that the
board be forced to take some action.
either to allow or to refuse the bill.

NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY
MAYOR YEISER THINKS THE
POLICE MAY REMAIN AS
THEY ARE.

Mayor Yeiser seems to think that
the board of fire and police commits
sioners do not have to meet and ap-
point police unless it is the desire
of the members.
1.-THE board can meet whenever it
wants to-" the mayor explained, land
it is not requisite that call a meet
ing for them to appoint police.
The police are subject to the boards
action and il can meet and discharge
any policeman il wants to and can ap-
point any police it wants TO. There
is no law that makes il ne ,sssry that
they meet and appoint for one year,
although this is generally done. They
may meet before the year is out and
appoint, but they do not have to. 1t
is in their power to let the police go
as they are and make no sppoiut-
ments."
The commissioners have been talk
ing about the appointments for some
time, but seem at loss to know what
TO do about il. They are looking to
the mayor to call meeting. but judg-
ing from what the mayor says he will
call none.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is In
PRESERVING Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
Is the safest and most efficient dfsintect-
ant and purifier in nature, but few real
ize its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is remedy that the more you
take of it the better; it is not drug at
ali, but simply absorbS the gases and I'M
purities always present In the stomach
and intestines, and carries them out Of
the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
and other odorouS vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion. it whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and emlnently
safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which col
lect in the stomach and bowels; 1t disin-
fects the stomach and bowels; 1T dlsln-
fects the mouth and throat from the poi
son of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money is In
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal and other harmless antiseptlcs
in tablet form or rather in the form OF
large pleasant tasting loZenges, the char
coal being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges VIII soon
tell in much improved condition OF the
general health, better complexion, sweet
er breath and purer blood, and the beauty
Of it is that no possible harm can result
from their continued use, but on the con-
trary, great benefit.
A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the
benefits of charcoal says: II advise Stu
arts Absorbent Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas in stomach and bow
els and to clear the complexion and puri-
fly the breath, mot tn and throat; l also
believe the liver is greatly benefited by
the daily use of them; they cost but TWEEN
ty-five cents a box at drug stores, and al
though in some sense a patent prepare
ton, yet believe get more and better
charcoal in Stuart'S Absorbent LoZengeS
than in any of the ordinary charcoal tab

Cautiously Framed Legislation.


"The necessary supervision and con-
troll in which / firmly believe as the
only method of eliminating the real
evils of the trust must come through
wisely and cautiously framed legisla-
ton which shall aim, in the first place,
to give definite control to some Sover
eign over the great corporations, and
which shall be followed, when once this
power has been conferred, by system
giving to the government the full
knowledge which is essential for salts
factory action. Then when this knowl
edge, one of the essential features Of
which is proper publicity, has been
gained, what further steps of any kind
are necessary can be taken with the
confidence born of the possession of
power to deal with the subject, and of
thorough knowledge of what ought
and can be done in the matter. We
need additional power, and we need
knowledge.
81 personally feel that ultimately the
nation will have to assume the re-
sponsibility of regulating these very
large corporations which do an inter-
state business. The states must COM
bine to meet the problem caused by
the great combinations Of capital; and
the easiest way for the states to COM
bine is by action through the national
must be delay in securing the adoption
of such a constitutional amendment
insures full discussion and calm con-
'Sideration on the whole subject and
will prevent any ill considered action.
II firmly believe that all these OBJ
stacles can be met, if only we face
them, both with the determination to
overcome them and with the further
determination to overcome them in
ways which shall not do damage to the
country as whole.
without the adoption Of a constitu
tional amendment my belief is that a
good deal can be done by law"
Almost Tragedy.
The celebration came near being
marred tonight with a panic that
would have caused a countless loss Of
life. 1t is estimated that there were
over 5000 people packed into the Au-
ditorium when the president began
speaking. At the same time the adj
joining exposition halls were crowded
with people viewing the exhibits, as
they were unable to gain admittance
in the music hall.
After the president had been speak
ing fifteen minutes there was a great
commotion In mechanical hall, ad-
jacent to music hall, on the north. The
sparks from an electric wire had set
a curtain on fire and the fire depart
ment had been called to the scene. The
police and attendants Of the EXPOSE
ton soon put out the fire, but. they
had much more trouble in controlling
the alarmed crowd, and it was with
great difficulty that Capt. ]. B. For
aker, son Of the senator, and one Of
the officers of the day headed off the
fire department from rushing into the
building. Very few in the Auditorium,
where Fthe president was speaking,
knew anything about the incident, and
the president suffered only a slight in
terruption without knowing what
caused it, Had there been a cry Of
fire or any knowledge of what was go
ing on among those in the Auditorium
the fatal results could not be estimat-
ed.
After the meeting in Music hall the
presidential party left at midnight for
Detroit.

If present plans carry, all of the
apartment houses in the city will be
under one management. Edmund G..
Walton is at the head of the move
ment and has eleven buildings in the
combine. Options have been secured
on a number Of fiat buildings and Of
fers made.
The main idea of Mr.. Walton is for
the owners of apartment houses to pool
their properties under one manage
ment and form a community of inter-
eStS.
Plans Stock Company.
Stock will be given in exchange to
the owners as in other kinds of trusts,
and dividends will be declared at stated
intervals on these shares. The COM
bine will have a capitalization of about
So, 900, 900, and will only take in fat
buildings in this city first.
st. Paul may be included later. Larg-
er profits will be made by the pooling
of interests, not by eliminating COM
petition, of which there is none, but by
cutting down expenses.
Rents Will Be Raised.
Coal will be purchased in large guam
tiles and prices will consequently be
cheaper.
Engineers will be employed who can
easily take care of a large number of
buildings. This will cut down the ex-
penses considerably, as q large num-
Der of men will be let out under this
system. A complete janitor service will,
however, be maintained. Rents will be
raised in all cases to a paying basis
and undesirable tenants will be forced
to other quarters.
