paration. Miss Matte Tomlinson
never fails to delight her audience,
and in rendering her humorous selec-
lions she is splendid. This time she
seemed richer than ever in her perfect
imitation of the country woman at the
graduating exercises of a city school.
Miss Mabel Wilkes had not hereto

IMPRESSION. Those that have heard

After the reading of the ordinance.
the question was opened for discussion
Mir. Anderson was opposed To- embody-
ing the contract in the franchise or
dinaucc and Mr. Iienery agreed that It
he made separate Mr.. Anderson
was further opposed to the ordinance,
because the company did not agree to
build the gas plant. In answer to this
objection. MI Henry stated that suit
had been filed by Mr. Ortila to oust
the gas plant from the present loca-
ton. and until that was settled he
could not rebuild the plant. The
Mayor was of the opinion that the
Councilmen ought not to bind the c y
for a longer time than their term of
office and Mr. Henry agreed that the
next Council elected two years hence,
might have six months time to rescind
or approve the tive-year contract made
by the present Council.
It was moved by Mr.. Anderson and
seconded by Mr.. Reid. that Mr. Henry
be given a contract to light the ely

the above amendments, and that the
City Attorney prepare a contract and
ordinance to .lat effect, acting in con-

a good contract for the city. All OF the

city to undertake to light It's own
