kansas river near the Maple street bridge
and the greater part of the island was
washed away A man named Davis
lived on the island and he raised q big
howl about 1t. so the street commissioner

The public buildings committee has
been working on repairing the city
building for some time. but the matter
has been put off by the council. but last

few wake up. Councilman Reynolds was
sitting at his desk listening to the dis

came down and his square on top of his
bald head with a smack that sounded as
loud as a report from a shotgun. Mr..

Reynolds moved his seat and the water
came pouring down from the ceiling. and
soon a big pool of water was standing
on the floor The fire marshal sent a
man upstairs and the matter was soon
remedied.

The hdrmOnu Meetjn0.

The Republican State Central
Committee, with other prominent
Republicans, met in harmony con-
ference at Parkersburg last week to
endeavor to harmonic the warning
factions that exist in two or three of
the Senatorial Districts. There
seemed to be disposition on the
part Of all to come to an agreeable
and satisfactory arrangement where
by there will be only one Republi-
can candidate for State Senator in
this District and only two (instead
of FOUR in the Parkersburg District.
The resolutions adopted by II e
meeting follow, the committee APP
pointed under its provisions being
Chairman Dawson, Elliott North
colt, of Huntington, and III. G..
Richards, of Wheeling:
Whereas, there exists in several
localities in this State among Repub-
licans unfortunate differences and
difficulties, which endanger the sue
cess of the party; and whereas, it is
highly desirable and necessary that
these differences be harmonized and
the difficulties adjusted, therefore
Resolved, by the Republican State
Central Committee (First) that our
brethren in the said several localities
are hereby earnestly urged to take
such action rs to them may seem
best, to harmonic their differences
so as to present to the voters of
their territory, whether country or
senatorial district, a single set of
Republican nominees to the end that
the ticket thus presented may lie
successful at the polls. This com
mittee is of the opinion that an
al justment of these difficulties is
absolutely necessary; that failure
to so adjust them as to present to
the Republican voters for their
hearty support single set of nomi.
nees or ticket, will result in serious
party defeat and disintegratlon.
Resolved, (Second,) that a com
mittee of three, of which the chair
man of this committee shall be one,
be appointed, TO confer with our
brethren in the said disturbed local
tiles, to assist them if requested, in
the adjustment of their differences
Said committee is hereby authorized
to visit the said several localities
and if in their judgment, they deem
1T advisable and necessary, TO inves-
tigate the condition, take evidence
as to the facts and report to the
State Central Committee at a meet.
