Mcdonnell 4VH1ll Enter Suit,

+ While to many who know of the
work done on the Virginia sewer
system it seemed improbab BILE that
p. Mcdonnell, the contractor
awarded the main sewer system,
would enter suit to enforce set
tlement of the balance alleged to
be due on his contract and for
extras, it seems that he invites
trouble and has retained Judge J.
NJ. Martin, of this city, as counsel
in the matter.
Mr.. Mcdonnell alleges balance
due of 1871, but at meeting of
the council the pastrmonth signi-
fed his willingness to cut this
amount in two, accepting half that
sum in settlement of all claims.
The council, by vote of four to
two, accepted of the proposition,
but the action was vetoed by
Mayor Fay, who in the published
proceedings of the city council gave
his reasons..therefore.
Foremost in the reasons stated
is an excerpt from the law under
which the city is organized; which
issthat no city council shall have
power to ordain or authorize any
compromise of any disputed claims
arising under any contract, nor
any allowance therefor nor therein,
except as provided in the contract.
The mayor further brings forth
the point that Under Mr.. -McDon-
nelps contract no claim for extras
shall be made. He further recites
in brief the failure of the contractor
to live up to the. specifications of
his contract in the construction of
the sewer, and gives it as his
opinion that the city has a better
claim for damages than has the
contractor for the extras claimed.
1t is we'll known fact to many
citizens who were interested that
the work was not done in accord.
ance with the plans and specifca:.
tions, in, some respects, and; while.
the sewer has thus far. given fairly
satisfactory service it should not.
relieve the contractor from his de-
dcieneies.. = :: - =, ~: e. =

one with buckshot, but the others
made their escape. @-.=
The wolves were discovered about

Barr was moving along a logging

any disposition to attack nor did
they exhibit any fear. This attitude

sowE's INDIAN HIGHT.

S~~.~.~~~~~>>Y>
In 1882 james Bowie and his BROTH
er were prospecting for gold along tho
San Saba River, In Texas, when they
were attacked by Indians. The fight
ing lasted only one day, but for seven
days longer the Indians surrounded
the party, to prevent their escape. In
the book entitled "With the Makers
of Texas" 1t Is recorded as the most
desperate Indian battle in the history
of Texas.
The number Of the Indians being so
much greater than ours-one hundred
and sixtyfour Indians to eleven white
men--lt was agreed that "Rezin"
Bowie should go out to talk to them,
and endeavor to compromise. He and
David Buchanan walked to within
forty yards Of where they had halt
ed. Ho requested them in their own
tongue to send forward their chief, as
we wanted to talk with him.
Their answer was, "How do you
do?" in English and discharge Of
shots, one Of which broke Buchanan's
leg. Bowie returned their salutatlon
with the contents Of double-barreled
gun. Then taking Buchanan on his
shoulders, he started for camp.
The Indians opened heavy fire
upon them. and when their shot failed
to bring down Bowie, eight Indians
on foot took after him with toma-
hawks.
When the Indians were close upon
him his companions rushed forward
and brought down four of them. Tie
other four fed.
The Indians now opened heavy
fire. Their chief, on horseback, urged
them to the charge. James Bowie cried
out, "Who is loaded?" All our guns
were empty with the exception of Mr.
Hamm's. He was told to "Shoot that
Indian on horseback" He did 80. His
shot broke the Indians leg and killed
his horse. We saw him hopping round
his horse on one leg, with his shield on
his arm to keep Off the balls.
BY this time we had reloaded, and
several balls pierced the shield, and
he fell.
Finding that we would not be dis
lodged from the thicket, they set fire
to the dry grass to rout us from our
position. The fire came down upon
us before the wind. and our situation
looked desperate. The sparks flew so
thickly that not powder-horn could
be opened. But when the fire reached
the ring round our wounded men and
baggage, we succeeded in smOtherlng
1t with buffalo robes, deerskins and
blankets.
1t was now shutdown, and we had
been warmly engaged with the Indians
since sunrise. Seeing us still ready for
fight. they carried Off their wounded
and gave up the battle.

CAT TRAPPED BY PRAIRIE DOG
Lured Into Burrow in Central Park
New York.

Lured Into Burrow in Central Park
| New York.
Lured into an abandoned burrow b;
his prospective victim, Green Eyes, q
cat who has long preyed on the prairie
dogs in the menagerie of Central Park
says the New York Herald, was i'm.
,prlsoned yesterday for many hours
through the strategy of Dolphin, their
king.
Dolphin was the only prairie dog OH
the surface when Green Eyes looked
about for further prey. Frightened by
the arrival Of the cat Dolphin's sub.
Jects sought shelter in their subterra.
mean homes. Apparently unconscious
of his peril Dolphin remained ON a
knoll watching the cat.
Suddenly darting forward Green
Eyes made an attempt to seize his vic.
tim. The latter, however, lodged the
cats attack and ran to the other side
of the inclosure, followed by Green
Eyes. Then began chase which last.
ed for more than Ave minutes, and
ended by the disappearance of Dol.
phin into an abandoned burrow Just
MS he was apparently about to be
caught by his pursuer.
Green Eyes hesitated few seconds
and then started to squeeze his body
through the entrance Of the burrow.
Small and slim, he finally succeeded in
making his way inside the subterra.
mean chamber. Witnesses of his at.
tack on Dolphin stood in front of the
lnclosure for half an hour waiting for
him to reappear, but he did not come
out Of the burrow.
They were surprised soon afterward
to see Dolphin poke his head cautious.
ly out of q burrow which evidently led
to another passage connecting with
the underground chamber into which
he had lured the cat. After surveying
the village with keen eyes Dolphin
came out Of the burrow and in re.
sponse to his sharp barks other prairie
dogs left their homes to come to the
surface.
While they were perched Oh knolls
late in the afternoon faint cries issued
from the entrance of the burrow
which Green Eyes had entered. They
were followed by the appearance of
his head and then Of his body as he
squeezed out Of the burrow. His body
was covered with dirt, and he had evi.
.dently been compelled to dig his way
out of his prison. Without making
any attempt to attack the prairie dogs
he hurried from the village.

A nervous, irritable mother often on
the verge Of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children it ruins child's disposi-
tion and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak.
ness, and she is entirely nnft to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like "a firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration. ner-
vous despondency. "the blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
OF the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, SO that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive TO light and sound (;
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in n shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
tion than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.
