Course of ErratiC Stream
 To Be Charged.
A CONTRACT IS LET
River Will Be Turned ;nt0 Der. ing Sea, Opposite The
 Baltimore.

The mouth of Snake river k to be changed by artificial means. Away
 back in lN@9 when the first ta,h to
 Nome occurred the mouth of that chaugeui stream wa- nearly (. .posite where the Baltimore bui,d.n. now stands on River street.
 Since tha, time it has been er lually working it's way to the eastward. Each rcrurliu. storm from the south or southeast aided it's movements. Now it, month is nearly opposite Lanes
 way while d big bar has formed on the south. The river, course has also
 been changed hundred feet or more to the northward, greatly cndansering property on the south side of Front street.
 Recently committee of citizens rep rescntlug d number of the property owner, in that locality raised -um of money, approximating 500, besides do- nations of sacks, to turn the river into the oea about the same place a, t en- tered it in 1889. An appeal was also made to the city councIl for aid and the matter was referred to Councilman Guudrich and Stevens, of the street committee. After investigation the street committee rendered favorable report, and last night at a special ses. sion of he city council, an appropria- tion of S2j0 was made to aid the work.
 A contract has been let to Davidson X Montgomery, representing the Mio- cene Ditch Co.,, and canal, p feet wide at the top and F feet wide at the bottom will be cut through the sand- spit, opposite the Baltimore, and the river turned through it.
 A dam will also be built so that the rivers flow eastward will be eifectually checked for some time to come. David- son & Montgomery will commence the work al once and it will be completed in few days.
 The river has widened considerably Df late and small steamers and barges have been unable to either get in or out Df the river, and it is expected that the new channel will be of advantage to people in the transportation business.

INSIDE THE GROCERY.
Some Facts Made Known.

1t is often thought that grocers really
have very little care regarding the food
value of the articles they sell but the
real facts are that grocery keepers OF the
right sort are extremely particular as to
what they recommend.
One of the fraternity relates a tale:
The highest priced coffee on the market
/ introduced to my customers and used
myself. | began TO have bilious attacks
and after little observation attributed
them directly 10 coffee. Every time I
left off drinking it got better, but I felt
the need of warm drink for break
fast.
Along in 1896 a wholesale grocer urged
me to put in some Postum Food Coffee
in my store, which l did with consider
able nisgivirg, for, at that time. the
now famous Postum was not so we'll
known.
He urged me to try it myself, which
/ did and was Disguised with the flat,
tasteless beverage, so was my wife. / re-
membered the wholesale grocer said
something about following directions
carefully. so l took the package and
studied ii. lat once discovered that we
had not boiled it long enough only three
or four minutes. but it must be boil9d 10
minutes at least, SO We tried 1t again
with the result that we got perfect cup
of coffee, 4 delightful and healthful bev-
erage. / have continued the use OF
Postum in my home ever since. We use
il for breakfast, dinner and supper.
My breakfast attacks quickly left and
am free from them altogether. began
10 explain TO my customers something of
the value of Postum Coffee and now
have a very large trade on 81" Name

But all this is more or less matter o!
speculation for at the last moment the
committee may take another view OF the
matter. and indeed. many OF these details
will not be worked out until after the
plans are finally passed upon
The matter of having the entrance To
the Capitol at the southern end is but TO
restore what once existed. and 70 follow
out the original design of the building
brought by Thomas Jefferson from
France. ard which WAS before the COM
mittee in IT'S deliberations.
1t is impossible to say definitely when
the work on the building will be COM
pleted or even begun. but it is likely
that as soon as the plans are definitely
determined upon the work will BIS COM
menced. The time for its completion Is
vartously estimated at from one TO two
years. The amount appropriated by the
Legisla ture for the purpose of putting
the building in shape is $lel"Tr. and tr
is thought to be sufficient TO make the

TO PURIFY THEIR RANKS.
Street Car Employees Take Such Ac-


In an effort to purify their ranks and
have better men in every manner, the
AmalSamated Association of Street Rail-
way Employees of America, Division No
l52, of this city, have taken a stand
which yesterday was talked very freely
by the men on the road.
According to their statements at
meeting of the union held last Friday
night, the question of appointing ten
men, whose duty 1t should be to detect
all acts of fraud or negligence of the men
It is not known even by members OF the
union whether this number of men have
already been Appointed or will be at some
subsequent time. The object to be gained
by such a move on the part of the union
in Richmond is q good one and one to
which every member of the union and
every employee of the street cars in Rich
mond will no doubt accede TO be right
and Just.
It is believed by some that this move
is a stepping stone to gaining recosni-
ton from the officials of the companies
here The men want a nine hour work
day. and have asked for this once before.
TO show the company that they have its
interest at heart they will take this move
of detecting the negligent and fraudulent
members of the union and employees OF
the company and have them discharged.

SUBSTITUTE FOR BEEF.
Market Men Say Demand for Mutton is
Greater Than Known Before.

Richmond people are eating more NUT
ton and hog meat at present than ever
before. This is because of the high price
of beef which is. in turn, due to the
control of the beef of the country by the
beef trust.
The organized laboring people Of the
CITY are going after the beef trust IN u
ma ctic,l way. They are not to buy any
beef for thirty days. This will have the
effect of decreasing the demand here tor
beef in a considerable degree, and hence
will in a measure serve to cheaper the
commodity for Richmond. The action
taken Tuesday night by the Central
Trades and Labor Council to recommend
to the various labor organizations of the
city not to buy beef for THU ty days. IS
a protest by all who are affiliated with
organized labor against the cornerinS OF
a food by a capital.
The market men say that never before
have fish, mutton. hog meat ana cthsr
substitutes for beef been in such de-
.nand,
