The CHARTER And
BONDS ON BALLOT
ALDERMEN ARRANGE TO SUBMIT
PROPOSITIONS AT ELECTION.
For the Proposed Filter Plant Bond
Issue of $1,ooo,Ooo Will Be Asked
Alderman Powers Seeks to Simplify
Legal Situation by Repeating Dead
Letter Ordinances.

Two important municipal questions
will be presented to the voters Of Mime
apolis on general election day accord
ing to resolutions adopted by the city
council last evening. These are the
proposition to authorize the council to
issue bonds to the amount of $l,OOO,O0O
for the construction of filter plant at
the reservoir and the ratification Of the
new charter proposed by the charter
ty years from Jan. /, 1905, and to bear
interest at not more than 4 per cent.
They are to be issued in denominations
of $50, 800, $500 and $1,000. There
was no opposition to placing either
proposition on the ballot.
James G.. Houghton, the city s build,
ing inspector, called the attention OF
the council to the fact that the present
electric wire ordinance does not clearly
define the responsibility for the re
moval of fFdead'' wires. The building
inspector should have more authority in
this matter, both to remove such wires
himself and require the companies to do
so. He suggests the employment Of an
expert lineman by the city to look after
dead wires so that they may not menace
life. The matter was referred to the
committee on underground wires.
Thomas Lowry made a formal tender
to the city of fifty acres Of land adj
proposed filter plant. The only con
| ditions are that the land shall always
be useA for Waterworks purposes, and
that not actually in use shall be main
tanned as a park. Mr.. Lowry's com
munication was referred to the commit.
1 tee on waterworks.
Alderman Fred M. Powers presented
an ordinance repeating several old ordl
nances which are virtually dead letters

There is nothing odd or peculiar about
the sleep Of the lions and tigers. In

enc to danger that they manifest In the

full or unconscious of the noise. Their

Since the Indians have been thinned
out the gila (heela) monster is over
running the southwest territory. The
only antidote known for the gila's poi

Mexico who think it Godgiven, and

That ants perceive and avoid rays OF

The X-rays are invisible to man, but

they are too long or too short for his

but simple indeed is the orthodox of the
tailor-made skirt. 1t is fuller round the
feet than the orthodox plain skirt of yore,
mostly finished with three rows of deep
braid or large fiat tucks with braid laid
thereon. 1t just clears the ground, no
more. These skirts are made in coarse
canvas, plain cloths, rough friezes, and
big checks in black, navy blue and
brown.
The somewhat sombre effect of some
of these frocks is lightened by cavalier
cuffs, and neat collars of velvet, adorned
with beautiful buttons. In style these
garments are absolutely perfect and
they form a very welcome change after
the more voluminous varieties, and are
more appropriate for quiet occasions and
travelling Nothing looks so bad as a
much befrilled and gagged skirt when
travelling by train or steamer, for 1t
catches up dust and microbes, and soon
presents bedraggled appearance
There are the striped cottons and neat
aannels which are made up over here
with long basque coat and semi-fitting
waist, somewhat after the style of an
English riding habit. These skirts are
cut as plainly as possible, though we still
notice little fulness about the hips and
feet. With these the Frenchwoman ger
orally wears dainty washing linen or
cambria blouse, showing some fine hand
stitchery, and neatly finished at the COL
lar and cuffs as such costume should
be. Very pretty are these skirts with
gathered frills of muslin down the front
and on the collar. A simple and appro-
pirate hat completes these neat tailor
made models.
Some notable elegantes of Paris are al

"Josh Billings wit.

There are some who have an idea
that Josh Billings" wit depends
largely upon his il-literary posing
his bad spelling and strained gram
mar, but this is serious misunder-
standing. What these did was to call
attention to the text The clown in
the circus says witty things, which
would be just as witty if he were in
a respectable dress; but the tradi-
tional fool costume makes attention
to him more certain and continuous.
You can take samples of Josh Bill
lings'" sayings almost at random,
and find their pertinence and shrewd-
ness unreduced, with their spelling
corrected. Here are two: 81 like to
see man just as honest when he is
measuring a peck of onions, as when
he is shouting Glory Hallelujah!' !"
Some folks brag of their great de-
scent, when their great descent is just
what ails them'-From Josh Bill

MOdlSh Summer EV6nlnQ Gowns

at the feet, and lined with soft muslin
You will do well if, when dancing, you
eschew the frou-frouy muslin petticoat,
and wear your gown over soft taffeta
silk petticoat. Then let your bodice be
made in picturesque style, gagged or
gathered to match your skirt. If you
have some good old lace, use it as ?
berthe or tucker; if not, cont emit yourself
with fine muslin tucker and ficu.
Let your sleeves consist of an early
Victorian puff, which is in keeping with
the fichu, or else let it reach to the elbow
finished with plated muslin frills. In
place of muslin you can use chiffon, lace,
net, or what you like, but there is some
thing particularly quaint in the mixing
Of soft muslins with satins and silks.
Then little newer is the frock of
white taffeta with sash of pale lettuce
green, and a berthe of ring spotted net,
edged with Valenciennes lace, and ap-
plique with pale green taffeta roses.
This skirt is plated on the hips, and sets
better If lined with muslin; it may be
finished with a festooned design of ruch-
ings, or one thick ruche round the feet
Then really inexpensive frocks for
dances can be made of ring spotted net
with little flounces edged with Valen-
ciennes lace, and prettily gagged bod
ice, finished with deep, pointed waist
band. Ecru net and ciel blue make a
pretty combination, and though ecru is
giving place somewhat to white, the
former is hard to beat from an econom-
ical point of view.

Writing of Savage and Civilized
Dress" Edwin Smith Balch says that
while it might be assumed that the SUI
perior development of the brain Of civ
ilized man would result in some form
Of dress far better and more tasteful
than anything found among savages,
1t may be doubted whether this is the
case. One marked error Of civilized
dress is it's interference with the
proper ventilation of the skin.
The human animal breathes with his
entire skin; refuse matter is thrown
off as perspiration through every pore.
The fact is we'll known, but in the gar

WRONG TRACK
Had to Switch.

Even the most careful person is apt
to get on the wrong track regarding
food sometimes and has to switch over.
When the right food is selected the
host of ails that come from improper
food and drink disappear, even where
the trouble has been of lifelong stand
ing.
From a child I was never strong
and had capricious appetite and
was allowed to eat whatever 1 fancied

biscuit, etc.-so it was not surprising
that my digestion was soon out of Or

Electricity and Plants.

Recent experiments of the Massachu-
sets agricultural college tend 10 show
that atmospheric electricity acts as a
stimulus to plants, and has much to do
with their development and configura-
ton. 1t was found during the expert
ments that at distance of 80 feet from
the ground the air, for about nine-tenths
of the time, has positive electric
charge. The differences of potential be-
ing the earth and the air ranged from
Is volts negative to 800 volts positive.
In thunderstorms the potential of the
air frequently changes from positive to
negative, and vegetation often becomes
charged.

PLAYERS AT MONTE CARLO.
Are Closely Watched and Investigated
by Large Number OF Ac-

Nowhere on earth is the faculty SO

1t has become huge gambling trust

The splendid business capacity of M.
Blanc, who is Monte Carlo as much

ton, has led him to make the discov-
cry that some lucky gamblers have
been taking money away from Monte
Carlo. This is a defect in his sys-
tenn that he intends to xemedy, as
in his opinion the Casino company
needs the cash more than anyone else
does.
About 200 active spies are employed
! at Monte Carlo. They throng the
gambling rooms, pick up facts about
the players, catch and expel pick
pockets, track persons who exude
counterfeit coins, and make them
selves generally useful to their EN-.
ployers.
One of their duties is to collect sta
! tistics as to how much the big win.
ners win and what they do with it.
These gentry have discovered thai
when a gambler has won few thou

. quer, and he goes off and loses al
his profits at Nice or Cannes at thi
