Sewer Contract Let.

The most important business to come
before the city council at its meeting
Thursday night was the letting Of the
contract for the installation of the sewer
system. Four bids were received for the
supplying of materials and laying the
pipes, J. b. Hicks, of this city. being the
successful bidder. He agreed to do the
work complete, with no comeback for
extras, rock work, etc, at 1850. The
other bidders were File, whose figures
were $3377, with an extra charge Of $3.50
per yard if rock is encountered in ditch
ing; Broad, who bid $3665, with $4.00
extra for rock work, and Costello, $4,000.
Hicks bid being the most advantageous,
and with no strings attached, he was
given the contract, and will commence
work as soon as the preiminaries can be
arranged.
An ordinance was passed creating the
sewer fund, and into this will go all
money raised by assessment and other
wise for the building of the system. The
ordinance establishing the grade on Pa
louise street was also passed. The APP
plication of Richardson Bros. for per-
mission to erect an iron warehouse at
the rear of their store building was
granted.
The license proposition was discussed
somewhat, and the committee was in
structed to amend the present dray IL
cense, and the agitation will likely end
in that result.
The water committee was instructed
to have the reservoir cleaned out, but
will give notice beforehand by publica-
ton in the papers when the water is to
he shut off for that purpose.

a neighbor and appeared in the best of
spirits, laughing and joking with the
members or the family. He went from
there to the drug store and sitting down
in chair, picked up a medical journal
and began reading it. He suddenly
pitched forward and died almost instant

Death of Carolyn Savage,

Carolyn, the 18-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. T. w. Savage of near this
city, died at st. Ignatius hospital, in
Colfax, on Monday, May 22nd, of infam-
alton caused by obstruction of the
bowels.
The deceased was first taken sick
about three weeks ago, but the illness
was not considered serious till few
days before her death. Sunday she was
taken to Colfax in the hope that an OPP
Grafton might save her life, but the dis
ease had done its fatal work, and slight
operation for her relief from physical
pain was all that could be accomplished,
and she passed away Monday afternoon.
The funeral services were conducted
at Cotton, Wednesday, Rev. Father Frei
officiating. The remains were buried in
the Cotton cemetery, beside brother
who died about four years ago.
Carrie was born on the Savage home
stead two miles from Pullman on May
20, 1885, and her entire life was spent
here. She was of that bright disposition
that wins friends, and her untimely
death is mourned by all. father and
mother, three sisters and two brothers
survive her.

The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1904-09-18

Amid the turmoil OF domestic politics and
foreign war it Is well to keep an eye on the
stellar universe. After the familiar example
OF the mariner taking his bearings we shall
thus be able to see where we are in the great
tide OF oosmical affairs, and it may do us no
harm to find that after all, our little agita-
tions have only stirred up the local dust.
The astronomers keeping their gaze on
far OF things may not represent the popular
idea OF good citizenship, but they are at
heart quite as patriotic as the average man.
and their studies OF stars and planets afford
valuable lessons for home application.
1t Is we'll worth anybody's while to take
q glance at the sky through the haze of these
September evenings. There are two OF
three things of unusual interest to be seen
there. In the first place there is the planet
Saturn paying us visit again.
You may see him shining very con-
spicuously in the south between and 10
o'clock. II you have IA telescope with which
to look at him there is an optical feast for
you. His rings never appear more beauti-
full than at their present inclination, for
year by year they are slowly closing up,
!. e., getting edgewise to the EARTH and
just now their plane is inclined about 10
degrees to our line of sight, so that they
appear in the form of a narrow oval with
on either side Of them.
1t is strange sight-that huge world
haloed like the head of saint with golden
circlet, especially when we remember that
that oirclet is almost 10000 miles across

to sleep in.

that Philip and ! saw this summer in the
Adirondacks that was, maybe, dlnerent
from anything you ever did see.
I'VE were padding along one day in a
canoe along the shores Of beautiful quiek
lake there, surrounded by mountains an
covered with trees that came right down,
to the waters edge, when we saw ahead
standing in the woods in level spot, a.
very pleasant and comfortable looking
house, two stories high built of logs with
the bark on, 80 that outside this house
matched in we'll with the trees all aroun1
it and looked as natural as could be. "
had a nice veranda all around it, and 1t GER
tainly did look like very pleasant place
to live in
And then right down at the waters
edge, a little to one side from the front of
this house, the people that lived there
had their boathouse, also built Of logs and
two stories high, with sleeping rooms up
stairs and the whole ownstairs all open
for their boats.
"They had float out in front in the lake
for them to land at. and they could Just
pun their guide boats and canoes out OF
the water on this float and then right
up into the boathouse. where they kept
them when they were not in use.
And Philip and | thought that was q
nice camp-you know they call many such
places camps in the Adirondacks-and we
were keeping our eyes on II as we padded
along, when all of sudden We caught sight
of the dolls camp that | was going to tell
you about right at the edge Of the water.
This dolls camp, which no doubt be-
longed to the children that lived In the
house Just back in the woods, was all COM
piete, but Il was just little different from
the big camp because instead Of having a
living house and then boat house, it had
a living house and an open camp; and the
house stood close to the water, because
they used that for boat house as we'll as
for living house. I'll tell you about that
house first
1T was very comfortable dolls house,
and it had in it everything that any doll
could want, or at least everything that any
doll could need for comfort in the woods
1t had a nice bed. and in one corner dress
ing table with dolls combs and brushes and
things, and then il had some chairs and a
couch.
And then it had a stove, with all sorts
Of cooking utensils, and there was another

!; behooves any one who may desire to
see Saturn in his most attractive aspect
not to lose the present opportunity. As
has been said, the rings. are closing up.
Next year when the planet again comes
into a favorable position their oval will
be distinctly narrower than it is now and
by 1907 they will DO entirely closed, or
edgewise, 80 that only a few powerful
telescopes will DO able to show them in
the form Of slender luminous line.
After that they will begin to open again,
gradually disclosing their southern sides.
At present 1t is the northern surface Of the
rings that catches the sunlight and is
visible to us.
1t is worth remarking that the new ninth
satellite of Saturn, named Phoebe, was
seen for the first time by human eyes at
the Yerkes observatory on the night of
Aug s. 1t required the utmost powers Of
the greatest telescope in the world to reveal
it, the observers being Prof. E. E. Barnard
and Prof. H H Turner, the latter visitor
from England. Heretofore Phoebe has
been known only through its faint image
on Photographic plates.
BIT a greater planet than Saturn is now
also on Jupiter. About o clock
you will see him in the east and there ia
nothing there or, at present, elsewhere in
the sky able to rival him.
His unmatched splendor Identifies him.
Viewed simply with the naked eye he is a
