Question and Answer.

When Nathan NJ. Morse was trying
the Tuckerman will case before Judge
McKim, DR.. Jelley, the well known
expert on insanity, was one of the
witnesses. One of the hypothetical
questions asked of the witness by Mr..
Morse contained no less than 10000
words. The lawyer started this pithy
question at the opening of court and
closed only few minutes prior to the
noon adjournment. The point that Mr..
Morse was endeavoring to bring out re-

The birth of Il huge iceberg, a phe-
nomenOn that has been seen only once
or twice by a European and to a GER
tain extent has remained a matter of
theory, was observed by the Danish
explorers on the east coast of Green
land some time since. The bergs are
formed by breaking off from the end
of glaciers extending from the perpet-
ual ice of the unexplored interior to
the coast and into the sea. The water
buoys up the sea end of the glacier
until it breaks by it's own weight with
a terrific crash. The commotion of the
water as the iceberg turns over and
over in the effort to attain its balance
Is felt to great distance along the
coast. The natives regard it as the
work of evil spirits and believe that to
look upon the glacier in it's throes is
death

Ford has already been acquitted I'M

inexplicable reason, never made an
attempt TO get the facts from us, nor
interviewed either of the undersigned.
we feel compelled inasmuch as We have
been praC tically accused before your
honorable body of an attempt to force
Il neighbOr to buy property which he
did not wish to buy. to place these
facts before you in cOmpliarEe with
the request of the water committee for
information. We attach hereto a state
ment from the neighbors who signed at
the urgent solicitation o DR.. Crop, a
petition for q new sewer, also one from
Dice & Jackson, our agents for the
sale of the Ward lots, for your further
information.
We brought this matter within the
past few weeks to the attention of thu
health officer who sent the sanitary in
spector to examine the premises, but
owing to our notice having reached the
hospital the rubbish had been cleaned
up. DR.. Braden, however, informs US
that he took the matter up with the
management, who. as he states, rather
reluctantly admitted" that employees Of
the hospital had been guilty of these
practices. We are not familiar with the
provisions Of your health ordinances,
but if there be no ordinance which pre-
scribes severe penalty for such an
institution as a hospital, with its at
tendant treatment of disease. throwing
such articles as are above described
into the neighbours lots. there would
seem 20 be need of one. 1t would seem
the principles of sanitation and clean
illness which in the public mind ought
to be fundamental with such an inst-
tuition as to raise a serious question
whether special regulations for the
conduct of such a business should not
be adopted.
We respectfully petition your hon.
orable body to ascertain whether your
ordinances do not properly protect the
citizens against such filthy practices,
and, if so, that the health officer be
instructed to make periodical inspec-
ton of these premises, and. should fur

management of the hospital be arrested

provide.

sion of water mains on Fourth and

Considerable discussion was precipi-
tatcd over the report recommending
the grading and sidewalking of Second
street from the Mill creek bridge to
Elm street.
Attorney Pedigo who lives in that
section said he doubted the Willingness
Of the people to make the expenditure
unless forced to do so. Kirkman
strongly favored macadamiZing the
street by the city at the expense of the
property owners which he said void
be light as the city already has the
apparatus and creek bed full of
rocks.
The matter was laid on the table and
made a special order for next Tuesday
in order that the sentiment of -.e res
idents of that district in regard to ma
Cadamizing may be ascertained.
A new water main from Cherry
street to the new car barns will be put
in. AS the city already has the two
inch pipe for the extension on hand the
expense will be but 5000.
The water department was autho-
rized as recommended by the water
committee to divide the expense of re-
pairing the reservoir at the cemetery
with the Masons and Odd Fellows. The
citys share Of the expense will be one
half.

LAND CONTEST INVOLVES
VALUABLE DESERT TRACT

The mOnotony of routine business at
the land office was broken by live
ly contest for the possession of 800
acres of desert land just across the
channel from Blalock's island on the
Columbia.
Ben Gillian says the necessary
amount of improvements was not made
last year on the land in question by
Frank Hayward, who took up the
claim, being furnished money for the
required development work by the Bla-
lock Island company.
Decision on the case will not prob
ably be made until Saturday. This
piece of property is said to be valuable
as it is all level and can be irrigated
at small expense.

John P. Kent. John Kirkman and
City Engineer Wilson were appointed
viewers by the city council last night
to appraise the value of lands which
will have to be taken for the OPEN
ing up of East street from Alder to
Birch.
It is not yet known whether the
property owners will sell the lands
which will be appropriated for the
street at a satisfactory figure OF
whether condemnation proceedings
will have to be instituted.
A communication from the CONNER
ciai club and from DR.. S. B. L. Penrose
chairman of the parks and public
highways committee of that body re-
garding the trees in the new street
was read. This was upon motion OF
Councilman Kirkman. referred to the
street committee with instructions to
follow the suggestions contained
therein as far as practicable.
The question of grading College
avenue was brought up by an urgent
petition from D. NJ. McDOnals asking
that the street car track be moved
SO that he would have convenient ac-
cess to his premises. The tracks in
this street are much to one side Of
the street but it was the opinion OF
