REFUSE TO GIVE
GAR FRANCHISE

should be bound by it 10 furnish GER
tain service, at certain fares. and I'M
der certain fixed conditions.
L do not believe that the proper
time has come to grant the franchise
Just to connect the two towns. If
the applicants bound themselves to
complete the road between Knob and
McGill and give us local service with
in a certain time, ii would be all
right to grant it,
Attorney Charles A Walker con-
tended that the time to grant the
franchise Is ripe. He said that any
one who would furnish the money to
put in the road would be entitled TO
the franchise. He said he did not
see why the franchise should not be
granted now as we'll as any other
time. He wondered why the appli.
cation had been put in at this time.
In the matter of the city insisting
that the road be built at once from
the Knob to McGill, he said the city
had no authority to say word as to
what should be done outside the cor
porate limits of the city. The ordi-
nance as presented Is sadly deficient
that if he were not city attorney he
would suggest that the city attorney
be instructed to draft franchise
that would be suitable to the city,
and present that to the petitioners.
He said there was no evidence OF
subterfuge or deceit in the commune
cations of the petitioners. Thorough
discussion should be had so that all
the property owners would he ahso-
lutely satisfied. A mass meeting
would be the best means of learning
the sentiment of the public.
He suggested that the matter he
laid on the table until the proper
ordinance, ore that would be accept
able to all, could be drafted
IF we can get any one to build
a street railway system here, he
said in conclusion, I'VE ought to JUMP
at the opportunity
1t was also suggested that the
| Commercial club, the Boosters clul
and the city council get together &c
draft an ideal franchise that would
meet all of the needs of the city and
then file 1t away to be presented tC
the applicants, or to any other ap
plicants who should appear in FIJI
ture.
F. C. Armstrong of the Ely Town
site company was then given the
| floor. Il appear as the representa-

a mass meeting is to be held and {

as soon as possible. There is mucl
work to be done in a project of this
kind, and if it is to be done this win
ter it must he done at once. 1t would
be a good thing to thresh out anC
learn just what would be consid
cred acceptable and we can then sa,
if we care to take the franchise OF

Attorney G. F. Foreman said tina
the form of franchise presented
would not prove acceptable to eithe
the petitioners or to the city. 1t i

TO MAKE PINE ENDURING

The experiments in the treatment
of loblolly pine fence posts. which
the forest service conducted at Maple
vile, Ala. in cooperation with j. A.
Wilkinson. State Commissioner OF
Agriculture and Industries. have Just
been completed.
Arrangements have been made for
setting the posts in an experimental
line, so that the exact record of their
durability can be obtained. To each
post will be attached a zinc tag
stamped with a certain number, which
will serve to identify it in the rec
ords kept by the forest service. In
spections of the experimental lines
will be made from time to time, Sc
that the comparative durability afford
ed by the different methods of treat
ment can be accurately determined.
During the course of the investiga-
ton. experiments were also made with
the treatment of sap pine shingles
In some cases coloring matter was
added to the creosote. The process
therefore. not only increased the
durability of the shingles, but gave
them a lasting stain. As the color
ing matter is actually injected into
the wood. and no, .noIeIy like
paint to the surface, it may be reas
onably expected that the color viii
be retained for long term of years

RAILROADS CRY FOR 1T.

If you want to make railroad
prosperous and happy, pass two
cent law. We are forced to some
such conclusion as this by the news
from Minnesota Out there the peo-
pie rose in their blind, unreasoning
might and passed ii law making the
maximum passenger rate two cents
mile. They didn't investigate or
anything; they were in a hurry. At
first the octopus protested, but it
finally agreed to give the new rate
a trial.
Now there is wicked wink in that
Octopus eye. 1t appears that every
body went to visit his Aunt Mary
forthwith. Minnesotans for whom
railway trains had been only nuis-
ances which scared horses began to
travel. The grasping corporation
finds that it is doing more business
and collecting more revenue than it
did last year. 1t likes to be regu-
lated. 1t couldn't afford to charge
three cents a mile. If the legislature
does not establish a minimum rate
the railroads will doubtless keep on
reducing fares until staying at home
is luxury which only the rich can
enjoy.
If this state of affairs becomes gen
eral there will be interesting devel-
opments. Railways will stop pro-
testing against having their revenues
increased: they will come to the gov
eminent hat in hand begging to be
regulated. One morning we will hear
that the Pennsylvania is trying to
lobby through a one-cent rate. The
next day the New York Central will
be asking permission to carry chill
dren free. Passengers will be pre-
sented with flowers and cigars.

PRESENT POPE CARES
LITTLE FOR GARDENS

An interesting article is published
in the Review, La Villa ct il Glar-
dino. by Signor Severi, directors of
the public gardens of the vatican.
These gardens occupy the site of the
circus and the gardens of Nero, where
the first Christians of Rome were
burnt like torches.
The papal gardens were first laid
out in 1890, during the reign of
Nicholas Ill All the popes who have
succeeded have contributed to the
beautifying of these superb lawns
and alleys. The numerous rich
fountains which now keep the gar
dens fresh are due to Paul V. The
style generally is that of the six
teenth and seventeenth centuries
geometric and somewhat monotonous,
but harmonizing with the severity of
the neighboring palaces and monu-
ments.
Gregory XIV cut down large area
of old plantations. and turned the
wood which formerly surrounded the
pavilion of Plus " into what was at
that time called IAN English garden"
All the popes practically have been
of Bacons opinion, that God first
planted a garden" and his vice re-
gents on earth have always taken an
intense interest, as was fitting, in
horticulture.
Their ambition seems always to
have been to be the first to cult
vate rare and exotic plants and new
vegetables and to introduce unknown
perfumes.

"l'he autumn" said Eben IL. EN-

Foreigners visiting us should inva-
riably come in the autumn
Suddenly Mr. Emery smiled.

song" he said. "A thousand leaves
are falling is the way it begins.
"a lady, at a church concert, rose
to sing this song.
"a thousand leaves are falling
she caroed, and then her voice broke
into screech, and she had to stop,
for she had pitched the song too
high.

Shear Men to Stuff Pilloxs

Like Samson, all the strong men of this city, and the weak ones, too, are being shorn of their locks, and by young women, too. The girls have fad to stuff sofa pillows with the hair of the male human. Half the men in town will be bald within the next few months or their polls will be clipped like a prize fighters.
 The girls have carefully estimated that it takes 250 clippings of hair to stuff a pillow deeently, but they have set no limit--the more hair the fatter the pillow and the more luxurious. The girl who yearns for such pillow makes up list of her male acquaintances and proceeds to shear each of them at the first opportunity. A refusal to give a lock does not discourage her; while he stands talking to a friend she tiptoes up behind him, and before he knows. "Clip-clip."
 So Ansonia men turn pale at the sight of a pair of scissors. A half dozen raids on mans crop by the hair-pillow fends leaves him "sight, v and there's nothing left for him but to go to the barber. As reminder of the fun they have had getting the "goose- down." as they call it, the girls em- broider the names of their victims on the pillow covers.-Ansonia, Conn.,, dis patch to the New York World.

There was some high class tragedy at the Iris theater last evening, when the semi-weekly change of program occur red. The feature of the bill was the film entitled Retribution, from the Bells, and it was one of the finest films ever displayed in this city. It was better than play, according to the opinions expressed after the close. There was more tragedy of domestic nature in the "Phial of Poison," where a faithless wife, her sick husband and lover furnished one act of considerable action. At the end the murderous lover was the only one alive. The comedy features were more than usually funny, the adventures of the dummy being especially ludicrous.
