the city at the rate Of $40 per cubic
yard by contract while by using city
asphalt and having the work done
by one OF the cltys departments the
cost of the paving this year was only
Is cents per cubic yard. This Is indeed
a remarkable saving and well worth
considering In future work of this
character.
Twenty-Five Miles OF Sidewalk.
There has certainly been great ac-
tivity In the matter of the construc-
ton Of cement sidewalks during the
year az 22,6 miles OF walks were con-
structed the total cost OF which was
sl20.OO0 This is a record breaker In
that matter. A great many sidewalk
districts were created during the past
few months OF the year but owing to
cold weather coming 10 soon they
could not be started. However they
will be rushed to completion next year
and at the rate established by the
present administration It Will be
but few years when the entire
city viii be well provided with good
cement sidewalks. AS fast as cement
sidewalks have been completed It has
been the policy OF the present admin
istration to Immediately connect them
with stone cross-walks across the
streets and the total sum Of si1,149.27
has been expended In putting in such
oross-walks during this year. The
city council appropriated ;i2,soO for
the construction OF 30 cross-walks but
the street department has succeeded In
putting In III walks at a cost Of 81, 500
less than the sum appropriated for 90
walks.
Much Sewer Work.
There have been SO miles OF sewers
laid during the year at cost Of $45, 500.
This does not of course include the
special sewer work done, as It is paid
for out OF the special bond fund. The
city laid three miles Of watermains dur
Ing the year at cost OF $4,000.
An item Of considerable interest was

COMFORTING WORDS.
Many a Leon Household will find

To have the pains and aches of bad
back removed; to be entirely free from
annoying dangerous urinary disorders
is enough to make any kidney sufferer
grateful. To tell how this great change
can be brought about will prove COM
forting words to hundreds OF Leon
readers.
Mrs Sherman Clayton, living two
blocks from the southeast corner of the
square, Corydon, Ia, says: II honestly
believe there is little need of any one
suffering the fortunes Of backache when
such an effective remedy can be procur-
ed as Doan's Kidney Pills have proved
to be. The prompt and thorough relief
which followed their use in my case has
given me abiding faith in the merits OF
the remedy. know that the remedy
can be depended upon to act up to the
representations made for it, and this
knowledge should be Of untold value to
people suffering from hackache and kid
ney complaint"

Cuban Djarrhoea.

U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba dur
ing the Spanish war know what this dis
ease is, and that ordinary remedies
have little more effect than so much
water. Cuban diarrhoea is almost as
severe and dangerous as mild attack
cholera. There is one remedy, however,
that can always be depended upon as
will be seen by the following certificate
from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of Houston,
Texas: Il hereby certify that Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy cured my husband of a severe
attack of Cuban diarrhoea, which he
brought home from Cuba. We had sew

WIFE MAY CAUSE ARREST.
DEVELOPMENTS in Connection with
Recent Discovery OF Geo. N.
Wilson.

Two weeks ago the Leader gave the
strange story taken from the Toledo
Times, of Toledo, Ohio, stating that Geo.
Nj. Wilson of this city had wife living
in Toledo, and that the woman in this
city with whom he had been living for
over thirty Years was not legally his
wife.
His two daughter, Mrs. Krall and Mrs.
Williams, came here from Ohio as soon
! as they discovered he was living here
and had disagreement while here as
to what course to take in the case and
returned to their homes by different
trains.
There lave been no further develop
ments since except what may be briefly
given in the following clipping taken
from the Toledo Times:
Papers for the arrest OF Geo. M,
Wilson and Rebecca Farmer, charging
him with unlawfully co-habiting from
May, 1872, until the present time, were
signed by the lawful wife, Mrs, Wilson
of this city, and forwarded to Seymour,
Iowa, last night. Mrs. Wilson and her
daughter, Mrs. krall, hope for an ami
cable settlement on a money basis for
the support of the aged wife, who may
then be induced to give her husband a
divorce.
The sisters, Mrs. Amanda Williams
and Mrs. Mary Krall, are still at sword
points. Mrs. Krall claims that her Sis
ter wishes to effect settlement for
$500 to be divided between the two
daughters, leaving the mother out OF
the question. She further alleges that
Mrs. Williams while in Seymour accept
ed 500 from the father not to prosecute
a case against him.
Mrs. Williams, on her part, claims
that the 800 was gift from her father
because she had treated him kindly and
had endeavored to bring about peace
able settlement. She believes that her
sister, Mrs. Krall, only wishes to have
the father pay her mother large sum
so that Mrs. Krall may eventually obtain
the full amount as she has the mother
in the family
We might add that the papers for the
arrest of Mr.. Wilson, which are men,
toned in the foregoing, are in the hands
of Attorney Wagner of this city, wait
ing till everything in is readiness"-we
do not know just what things-but are
informed that there will be further
interesting developments in the near
future.-Seymour Leader.

Friend of the Birds.

Mr.. James T. Eveland, we'll known
farmer who lives few miles east OF
Garden Grove, has published the follow
ing notice as warning to those who
kill our song birds, while at the same
time he says all genuine ,sportsmen are
welcome to hunt game birds on his farm:
All genuine sportsmen who hunt game
birds in their season, are invited to
hunt on my farm, but you who think it
sport to kill swallows, meadow larks,
ground sparrows, bobolinks, thrushes,
or any song birds, are advised to stay at
home, read natural history, admire and
listen to the beautiful birds singing in
your. own door yard, calculate the good
they do, and if you still feel inclined to
amuse yourselves by shooting these

Oklahoma Lots a Fake.

Last week the Telegraph reported the
sale of twenty lots in barrow. Okla, to
about sixteen of our citizens. The lots
were to cost $25 each, and an advance
of So per lot was paid to the oily-ton-
gued agent. Fortunately the boys de-
cided to send w. P. Sheets on tour Of
investigation before they let loose of
the remaining $50 per lot each. Mr..
