Van Buren, however. had on his side

honors at the hands of the country.
Jackson declared that the Whig party

FLOWERS OVER EARS.
New Fad For Women Invented by
Lady Harry Bentinck.

New Fad For Women Invented by
Lady Harry Bentinck.
Women in the United States and
abroad are indulging in the pictur-
esque fad of wearing huge flowers
over their ears. says the New York
Press. This headdress is becoming to
most pretty women. although only a
certain refinement will save the wear
er from the epithet freak" This is
a season Of license as far as coiffureS
are concerned. and anything goes"
One sees parted hair. pompadours and
hair low on the neck. The wearing
of flowers at the side was the inven-
ton Of Lady Harry Bentinck OF Lon
don, a great beauty who dresses in an
unconventional way.
Last autumn she appeared at n ball
in n gown of lemon cOlored chiffon. 1t
was an accordion plated skirt, and
the sleeves were flowing masses of
chiffon. Over each ear a large yellow
chrySanthemum was fastened. Recently
at one of the fancy dress parties in Lon
don Miss Muriel Wilson impersonated
Cleopatra, and over her ears were two
lotus flowers in full bloom. In New
York this fad has been gaining head
way.

MEETING is BRIEF
Question of Holding Control of
Milan Bridge Comes Up
in Council.
ooNFERs WITH SUPERVISORS
Railroads Will Re Required to OBJ
serve Gate Ordinance on
First Avenue.

Brevity was the chief and most in
teresting feature of last nights coun-
ell meeting, and the only considera-
ton which even caused IL ripple on
the placid atmosphere was a discus
sion of the Milan bridge question, and
whether they should be kept by the
city or turned over to the county.
Supervisor Kolleff was present and
participated in the remarks delivered
on the subject.
Several aldermen spoke, those in ia
vor of county and city control seem
ing to be evenly divided The former
seemed to hold that the possession of
the bridge by the city would be d
possible factor in determining the
course of some of the many prospec-
tive interurbans now heading in this
direction. The action of the Western
Illinois company in asking the super
visors for franchise from Milan to
the Moline bridge was cited in the
discussion and the aldermen felt that
some move should be made to get the
road to enter the cities through Rock
Island. After some further talk the
matter was referred to a committee
consisting of the mayor, city attorney
and Aids. Eckhart, BIochlinger and
Benson, to meet the supervisors and
talk over the bridge matter, with in
cidental reference to the interurbans.
Wanted City to Settle.
In highly original communication
Louis Fuse, who received minor in
jury while working on the Fifteenth
street sewer. asked the city to give
him his time and settle up for the
damages sustained through personal
injury. He ended with, Il should
think a small help would be better
than a lots of trouble" The matter
was shown to be a private claim and
one in which the city had no RESPONSE
bility, but the contractors are the
liable parties.
The disposal of the hay on the res
ervoir site came up. and it was rec
commended that the health depart
ment take the matter in hand and
cure" the grass.
The national convention of those
interested in waterworkS Is soon TO
be held at Detroit. Mich. 1t has been
the custom in the past for representa-
tives from Rock Island TO attend this
meeting, and in conformity with this
usage Il delegation consisting of the
mayor, superintendent of waterworks
and chairman of the waterworks com
mittee, was appointed.
Demands Gates
There are several very dangerous
crossings along First avenue, especi-
ally at Seventeenth Eighteenth and
Nineteenth streets, where the trains,
switching crews and traffic of three
railroads is constantly passing. There
is no adequate gate system in use and
the crossings are in constant use by
people bound for the ferry landing
and steamboat offices. An accident
is bound to occur here sooner or later
and motion was passed to the effect
that gates should be installed and the
railroads notified that they must com
ply with the city ordinances in this
respect.
