SEWERAGE AND DRA|NA9 e
WHAT HAS BECOME OF THESE
TWO PROPOSITIONS
A GOOD FOUNDATION WAS LAID
Administration Started Out Well and
Was Backed by Public Sentiment,
But Nothing Seems to Have Come
From the Movement.

From the Movement
People are beginning to wonder, and
wonder quite audiby, what has be-
come of the drainage sewerage and
water extension plans that were so
conspicuously before the city council
some months ago, and from which
much was promised in the way Of i'm
/ provemont to the city's condition AT
the first regular meeting of the pres
ent city administration on May 4,
Mayor Friday in his message strongly
urged that measures he taken to over
come the food difficulty in Corpora
tiOn gulCh, and on May Is It was an
nounced that Mayor Friday had ar
ranged with Engineer King of the Chi
cagO and Northwestern to inspect the
gulch and advise the city how the
trouble might be remedied. Again, at
the meeting Of the council MAY 1S a
committee was appointed to investi-
gate the cost Of a sewerage system
for the city and the mayor was dele
gated to communicate with Engineer
ROsewater and have him come here
and make an estimate on the cost of
such system.

SCORES INTEMPERANCE EVILS
Rev. M. p. Smith Makes Address at St.
Mary's Church

drunkenness dethrones man and
takes supremacy from him. 1t makes
of man hideous caricature of Gods
noblest work. Surely If there is re-
joicing in heaven over the one repent
ant sinner, there is hellish glee in those
that hate God over a drunkard.
These were the sentiments expressed
by Rev. M. p Smith, G. S. p, last
evening in an address on "The Liquor
Question at ST. Mary's church.
Father Smith spoke to a large congre-
CATION, outlining the temptations and
evils of liquor. He said in part:
1--WE find in the Holy Scriptures
many times statements regarding this
sin, the greatest of all evils. The
Scriptures give a warning and judg-
ment upon those who let themselves
become victims of this habit. Drunk
enness separates us here and hereafter
from the blessed friendship of the Lord
who created and redeemed us.
LET use look upon the effects of
drunkenness upon the body. 1t un-
mans man. Drunkenness takes the
brightness from the eye and the hue
of health from the cheek, robs the
step of it's elastic grace and inverts
the whole order. 1t makes the soul.
which should be the mistress, the
slave.
"The cities are burdened with enor-
NOUS expenses and debts. The amount
of money used is appalling. 1t is equal
to the assessed value of the whole
United States, with the exception of
three states. Drunkenness is no re-
specter of persons. 1t has assailed the
very priest at the altar and made him
a reproach to the church to which he
has been ordained. A man who is
given up to the habitual excess of
liquor ceases to be good Christian"
Father Smith closed with an elo-
quent plea for total abstinence.
Rev. j. M. Handy, G. S. p, will

last night with the Southside Improve
ment association, and the two CONSOLE
dated, adopting the name of the lat
ter.
The meeting was held in a real es
tate office at the corner of Jefferson and

gate the possibility of securing a fire
house at the corner of Main and Jeffer-
son streets gave a partial report, stat
ing that as soon as larger water mains
are placed by the city the building
will be supplied.
The speeding of automobiles on South
Main street is another question which
has been disturbing the residents in
that vicinity, and a committee con-
ferred with Chief of Police Hammei
The chief has promised to investigate
and report during the week. 1t was
decided that the committees appointed
by the Maple avenue and South Main
street association shall continue to act
for the Southside association, and a
new committee was appointed to make
an effort to secure gas for that part of
the district not already supplied.

APPLICANT FOR
DIVORCE SCORED
JUDGE SAYS W0LAT0RS OF
LAW NOT WELCOME
"Those Who Break the Commands
Of God and the state Need
Not Apply" He De-
cIares

1--WE can't have people come into
court here and confess to the violation
Of the laws of God and the state, and
then expect to get a divorce"
With these few words Judge Allen
yesterday in the superior court denied
the petition of J. G.. Haskell for di-
vorce from his wife, Mrs. Refuffia
Haskell who is about twice his age.
The couple were married i'm the early
sos, when Mrs Haskell was nearly 80
years of age while the plaintiff in the
case was %.
The pair was not as congenial as
might have been expected, and they
dissolved partnership in 1889, or to be
more exact, Haskell told the court that
his wife drove him out during the sum-
mer of that year.
One day he called on his former wife.
Haskell says that his wife had ceased
to love him, and she caused his arrest
on the charge of assault, to which
charge he pleaded guilty to save her
from any unnecessary expense and
trouble.

Wife Urged to Pay Bills

When her husband deserted her Mrs.
Stella C. Ham felt like weeping, but
when he wrote to her and requested
her to pay an urgent bill for him her
sorrow turned to anger and disgust,
and yesterday she pleaded with Judge
Trask in the superior court to put
Arthur G. Ham through a course of
matrimonial bankruptcy.
1t was judicially established that a
wife is not required to foot her hus-
bands bills, not even an urgent one,
and the divorce was granted.
