COUNCIL MEETING

sufficient consumers to Justify the
expenditure necessary to lay line.
Mr.. Sweeney, of the Farmers and
Producers National Bank appeared
before council with an old order
which had been renewed some six
months ago, and on motion the in
terest of the same was paid, and the
order renewed.
Messrs Fred Wells and Harry
Freedman appeared before the
council with request of rebate
upon taxes paid but which they
were enormously assessed. Both
petitions were laid on the table f'r
future consideration.
Mr.. A. c, Thomas, was exouor
ated from taxes upon real estate he
did not own, the same having been
exouorated by the county court.
Mr.. Buzzard appeared before the
city fathers with the proposition
that he could furnish any kind
| of trees to take the place of the
Zones which had been planted last
spring but did not grow. The
council decided to do nothing In
the tree planting line until some
future date.
A petition for a gas light on
Alley A, signed by J. Il. Mccoy
and others, received favorable con-
siderations, and the light was
ordered.
A list of all the fremen In the
city In good standing was present.
ed by Mr.. Ryan, who asked that
such action as was Necessary should
be taken to relieve them from the
one dollar "head tax" The proper
action was taken In conformity with
the request.
| The final bill for the city assessor
was presented, and on motion de-
ferred to a future meeting.
Considerable discussion was had
upon the adoption of the new sys-
tenn of book keeping, the clerk
! having reported that the books
were ready. 1t appeared that the
.azeW system would involve quite an
amount of additional work for the
clerk and as his salary could not be
raised during his term, the matter
was laid over until the commence
ment of the next fiscal year.
Under the same subject, the new
assessment and inspection of the
I water consumed In the city were
reported. 1t appeared that the In
spection showed a gain of some ten
to fifteen hundred dollars In the
amount of water rent due from
those still using city water. 1t was
decided that the new rating should
20 into effect at the commence nent
Of the next quarter.
The bill OF Hanes & Young fol
services In the Pine case was re-
turned for correction.
The usual bills were read and
passed, and the council adjourned

CITY COUNCIL ACTS

any good reason why It's officers
should get the Ill will of our people
when their demands are so few and
In strict accordance with the con-
tract made with the city. We hope
this action OF the council will be
obeyed, the crossing put In
and the cars run down Wells
street. We have heard many
people express themselves on
this question and all agree the
council Is right and the company
wrong, Let's have the crossing In
and then we will have peace, har'
mony and good feeling all around.
The council ordered gas light put
In on Alley A between Charles and
Catherine streets which has always
been q dark place.
A bill for fifty dollars was allowed
to the city solicitor for assisting In
prosecuting the Pine suit. Coun-
Gilman Noll opposed this motion
and after 1t was carried asked to
resign. The mayor requested him
to put his resignation in writing
when 1t will be accepted.

Stacked there. 1t was ordered that

Uuder the street committee, Mr..
Ry an called attention to the con.
dltion of the crossing on upper

Ing that the services In that church
that evening were continually In
terrupted by the same. The report

of the street that occasioned~ the
trouble for Mr.. Rawley before Sat-
urday.
Of the same committee, Mr.. Krug
reported that two gas lights have
been placed on the hill In accord
ance with the petition and action
of council at the last meeting.
Mr.. Ryan of the same committee
reported that the work on the
wharf had progressed nicely up to
the point Of laying the brick, but
although the same had been ordered
1t had not arrived In the city be-
cause of the inability Of the man
ufacturers to secure cars for It's

KILLED BY LUMBER TRAIN.
Lawyer and Physician of MouItrie
Meet Traoic Death

mSet tragic Dedtn.
Moultrie, Ga, May 8.-As the result
of a collision of a motor car with a
log train on the Georgia Northern rail
road near Moultrie, Matt J. Pearsall,
a leading lawyer of Moultrie, and
Frank Daniel, prominent young ply
sician, are dead.
The accident occurred at night near
Corbett's mill, miles below MouItrie.
The young men had been down the
road several miles on a fishing trip
and were travelling on a small motor
car.
Returning in the evening night fell
upon them before they reached the
city, and it was raining. Coming up
the long grade near Corbett's mill
they were suddenly confronted by the
end truck of long train that was
rapidly backing over the hill.
They were in 20 feet of the log
train when it was first seen and there
was no time to jump even.
In TIE collision that followed both
men were fatally hurt. Dr. Daniel
was crushed from his waist down, the
trucks passing over him. Colonel
Pearsall received injuries about the
head, in the body and had one leg
broken.
Colonel Pearsall is of a prominent
North Carolina family, his brother,
P. M. Pearsall, being the present pri
vate secretary to Governor Aycock,
at Raleigh.
DR.. Frank Daniel is about 22 years
old and graduated last year from the
Atlanta Medical college
