HAPPENINGS IN EAST SIDE CITIES AND TOWNS.
CITIZENS ARE INDORslNG
MAYOR COOKS DIXIE PLANS.
Favor Special Protection to He Voted
On nt an Election TO BE Held
December Is.

Sentiment on the East Side seems to
be crystallizing in favor of the scheme
proposed by Mayor Silas Cook to author
ize the City Council to issue bonds and
make a special assessment to pay the
city's share of the cost OF a dixie which
will protect the city from future floods of
the Mississippi River.
The plan, which has been outlined in The
Republic, is to divert the course of
the Cahokia Creek, to build a dixie on the
south side of the creek bed and to raise
the tracks of the railroads SO as to form
an embankment about the city.
1t Is also proposed to raise the tracks
at the Relay Station and to do away with
the Broadway viaduct. Missouri avenue
and Broadway, it is intended, shall be de-
pressed.
construction Of the diIes and depression
of the streets, is figured at between $780,
0O0 and 100000 by City. Engineer e.. G..
Helm. This sum, 1t is intended, shall be
law gives the city the right to pay this
money in. s.
The law provides that per cent OF the
assessed valuation, OF property on last
law if 1t is passed. but it is said that
only about half the money which the law
makes provision for will be needed to
fully protect the city.
on this proposition will be held on Decem-
Der 10, Mayor Cook said yesterday that
of support and believed that it would
carry unanimously.
The railroads, according to Mayor Cook,
will have to do their share toward the
building of the dixie, but in addition there
are many points which must be looked
after exclusively by the city.
I'VE do not touch the river front levee
north Of the Eads bridge" said Mayor
Cook, in our scheme. and instead we
leave that 10 the proposed protection of
the big dixie which is being talked of and
which if built win extend from Alton to
below East st. Louis. and will give the
entire East Side protection.
This dixie will prove n great thing when
it is built, but it will take several years
at least, and in the meantime East st.
Louis would be at the mercy of the flood
waters OF the Mississippi River.
"Our dixie will afford us absolute pro-
lection from high water, and when the
big dixie is built we will then be doubly
protected"

PRACTICAL JOKE COST HIM s45.
Sebastian Fired Revolver to Have
Fun With Quarantine Guard.

Charles Sebastian of Lenzburg has been
cured OF playing practical jokes 1t cost
him yesterday s45 in fine and costs to
settle joke which he played on the Mar
shall of his town.
Sebastian thought that it would be fun
to fire revolver near one Of the guards
who are patrolling the road to stop per-
sons from New Athens, if they had been
exposed to smallpox. The shooting badly
frightened the guard, who reported that
the people of New Athens had decided on
retaiiatoTy measures.
Sebastian had a good laugh until Mar
shall Patrick Kelley heard that he was re-
sponsible for the joke He caused the
arrest of Sebastian on a charge OF dis
tuIbing the peace.
Then Sebastian thought he would try
another joke by securing change OF ven
ue which would take the case to New
Athens, where none of the witnesses would
go on account of the fear OF smallpox.
Instead, Attorney Charles karch dis
missed the case in the New Athens court
and began case before Police Magis-
trate Bedel in Belleville. charging a vio-
lation of the State laws.
On this charge Sebastian was f1ned s.

''If the House OF Delegates will pass the

The Street Commissioner was informed
that the House would In all probability
clean up all the street-improvement bills
which have been hung up in the committee
since last spring.
He is hoping for couple of weeks open
weather TO finish up the work now under
way. and by having nothing to do next
spring but start the work he said that
Lindell boulevard could be made ready
for traffic by the time Opening Day
rolled around.

be boulevard direct 10 the Fair grounds,
which in general opinion is much needed.
The cost of the work is estimated at

BRAIN FOOD
Is of Little Beneat Unless 1t Is Di-
Sested.

Nearly every one will admit that as a
nation we eat too much meat and too little
of vegetables and the grains.
For business men. office men and clerks,
and in fact every one engaged III sedentafy
or indoor occupations, grains milk and
vegetables are much more healthful.
Only men engaged in severe outdoor
manual labor. can live on heavy meat
diet and continue in health.
As a general rule. meat once day is
sufficient for all classes of men. women
and children. and grains. fruit and vege,,
tables should constitute the bulk OF food
eaten
But many of the most nutritious foods
are difficult of digestion and II Is of no
of grains and vegetables where the diges-
ton is too weak to asSimilate them prop
ery.
1t is always best to get the best results
from our food that some simple and HARM
less digestive should be taken after meals
to assist the relaxed digestive organs, and
several years experience have proven
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets TO be n very
safe. pleasant and effective digestive and
a remedy which may be taken daily with
the best results.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can nardly
be. called a patent medicine. as they do
not act on the bowels nor any particular
organ, but only on the food eaten. They
supply what weak stomachs lack. pepSin
diastase. and by stimulating the gastric
glands increase the natural secretion of
hydrochloric acid.
People who make a daily practice Of
taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal are sure to have
perfect digestion, which means perfect
health.
There is no danger Of forming an in
furious habit, as the tablets contain abso-
iutely nothing but natural digestives: CO.
caine. morrhine and similar drugs have
no place in stomach medicine and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are certainly
the best known and most popular of all
stomach remedies.
ASK your druggist for a fifty-cent pack
age of Suuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, and
after a weeks use note the Improvement
