REGARpING THE SEWERS.

There is a matter in reference to
the petition being circulated for the
purpose of sewering the borough. 1t
is embodied in the petition that the
sewers are to be built according to
certain plans, drawn and submitted
to the borough. According to the
specifications regarding the use of
said plans it entails, IL we under
stand the matter rightly, ten per
cent. of every dollar expended by the
borough in building sewers, accord
ing to said plans. to be paid to the
persons drawing the same. The bor-
ough has already paid for the said
plans over $500. While the town
needs sewers and must have them
sometime, are we just ready to build
them at present? Let us consider
the matter and if we are, then let us
start right, so that no more money
may be given to some n who does
not even sec the work while being
done.

The correspondent OF the NEWS
has been looking into the matter OF

the figures in the matter, he is unable

this year is higher than last yc-.
Why this is SO, he cannot tell, unless
we are getting cXtravagant in our ex-

compiled them, stand thus: Assessed
valuation this year above last year,
S794,347. Total valuation of proper

rho rate this year is SITS per hun

county, school and borough, S51,-.
703.57k. Last year we raised $34,-
130.25R. Our budget this year will
call for $17,573.32 more than last
year, and our state school tax has
dropped ~ cents this year. Why
this is so we will leave for someone

of Much NotOriety.
81. Louis. sept. 2a. 19O6.

~
l.. r. Cooper, the man who mas
created a sensation throughout the
east, and who is rapidly acquiring a
national reputation, arrived in St
Louis yesterday.
Cooper is president of the Cooper
Medicine Company, of Dayton, ONO,
and has made a fortune within the
past few years estimated at several
millions, by the sale of two prepara-
tons, which are claimed to be very
unusual, and which are said to ac-
complish remarkable results.
Cooper spends his time travelling
from city to city introducing these
remedies and in this he has
acquired the fortune he now pos
sesses.
Cooper is said to be a very re-
markable character, and a man with
eccentric ideas; ono of his beliefs is
that a certain part OF his income
should be devoted to charitable work,
and he is said to give thousands OF
dollars to the poor in each city that
he visits.
His charitable work is original, as
he is continually devising new meth

The most remarkable feature or
Cooper's work is what is known as
his "Three minute removal of deaf
ness" In cities visited by him with
in the past year he has appeared
nightly before large audiences and
offered to make any one hear within
less than three minutes, If they would
come up on the stage. Reports from
P%ittsburg, Cincinnati, Detroit, Cleve-
land and Louisville, and other cities,
seem to indicate that Cooper actually
did as he claimed. .s-s ems
Each night he is said to have res
moved, before thousands of people;
cases of deafness in about three MINI
utes' time with one of his prepara-l
lions. The accounts of his work ap-
peared in all of the leading Hdailies'p'e
of the East, and people have t1ocked
to him from all parts of the country.
The sale of his preparations is said
to reach enormous proportions within
a week after Cooper arrives In a city.
Whether he will be as successful in
St. Louis as elsewhere remains tosbe'

travelling through our town as sales
man for the goods of Heinz & Com

were crowned with success. While
he was modest and gentlemanly in
every respect, he was also a fluent
talker and was able to discourse the
merits of his goods with success.
