called upon to pay as high rate as
$50 per front foot, while another par
eel of land, equally as valuable, would
not have to pay more than $3.50 per
front foot. Especially was the assess
ment high on the corners of the diff
ferent streets. This evidently was
very much out of proportion. when it
was figured out that the contract price
would approximately be trifle over
s13 per front foot.
No formal protests We're made to
the council, but after Mayor Hunt had
suggested that the district be reassess-
ed that action was taken.
Lecture on Good Roads.
Much time was taken up at the
meeting by ]. w. Abbott, the govern
ment representative in the good roads
movement, who gave an interesting
account of the manner employed by
good roads, during which he made
some very valuable suggestions to the
council relative to the proposed work
that is to be done by the city in con-
junction with the county in building
the two miles of sample road. He re-
ported that he had made an investiga-
ton of the different kinds of rock
around Walla Walla and was satisfied
that the common boulders found in
the creek was good material for the
road building, and he deemed it prefer
able to the quarry rock. The gentle
man was asked many questions by the
different members of the council and
he was kept busy making answers for
fully an hour. The matter of the pro-
posed Improvement was left in the
hands of the street committee which
will take up the details of the work
and act in accordance with the instruc-
tons of Mr.. Abbott.
Alarm System Accepted.
Upon the recommendation the
Gamewel fire alarm system was &C
copied by the council The clerk was
authorized to draw a warrant in pay
ment of the balance due on the con-
tract price 1t was 5000 on the origi-
nal contract; interest on deferred pay

Music Study Club promises to be one
of the richest treats in music and art
Richmond has had for many years.
The recital Of one Of the worlds
famous operas by so noted a musi-
elan as Mr.. Adler would of itself be
rare treat to the lovers of music
in our city.
Mr. Jordan is one of the best
readers in the West. Last winter he
gave number of readings of Pars-
ifal in Cincinnati and vicinity and
his work was always appreciated By
the large audiences which greeted
him. He is not unknown to Rich
mond people, as he has appeared
here a number of times before. A
few weeks ago he gave two read
ings at Earlham College. In addi-
ton to the recital there will be
shown the celebrated series of Pars-
ifal paintings by Marcus Simons, of
Austria. -
The affinity between the ideals of
Richard Wagner portrayed in the
Parsifal opera and the paintings of
Marcus Simons have long been re-
cognized in Europe. The beauty of
coloring in these eight paintings, as
we'll as their wonderful portrayal of
poetic ideals have attracted the at
Here the painter, like the musician,
seems to be but merely as means
of expressing ideals. The Parsifal
pictures are worthy of study by all
on account of their remarkable and
beautiful color harmony, besides the

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
cure is obtained quickest by a proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking DR.. kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to go often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
SwanpRoot is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, DR.. Kill

City Hospital at indianapolis, where
his leg was amputated between the

there for sixteen days.
Mr.. Schepman says that by reason
Of the injury to his back he has per-
manently injured his central nervous

will suffer severe kidney trouble,

life. Before being injured, he

feet physical condition he was able
to solicit orders for his trade, which
is that of a merchant tailor, in In
dianapolis and other cities through
out the State and he made from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year. He is still
engaged in this business, but his
trade has fallen off to a great extent
because of his inability to travel
around the State soliciting orders
for clothing and his average yearly
income now is about $1,000 a year.

Schepman asks that he be given $780,
