|W. A. CHESTERMAN
I TO GET CONTRACT
Common Council Disagrees With
Board in Auditorium
Matter.
REJECT COMMITTEE REPORT
Ordinance Passed Fixing the Tax
Rate in the Annexed
Territory.

After a session OF over an hour last
night the Common Council. at a special
meeting, declined to concur in the action
of the Board, approving the resolution
Of the Grounds and Buildings Committee,
awarding the contract to A. c. Bedford
to convert the Third Market Hall into an
auditorium without seats.
A substitute was offered bv Mr. Pollock
and adopted making the award to Mr..
Writ a. ChesterMan. on the ground that
he was the lowest bidder. The substi-
tute requires the committee to liveiwithin
the appropriation of $1,000. including the
putting in OF seats. !
Tho whole matter turned on the ques-
ton of making tho Third Market per-
manent auditorium, the majority being
opposed to this view.
The substitute resolution adopted last
night will have to go to the Board for
concurrence.
It took but few moments to get
through the ordinance applying the reg
the territory recently brought in under
the new annexation scheme, there having
been no debate upon it.
The only other business was the intro
ducuon by Mr.. Lynch of report of the
Ordinance Committee appropriating $40 600
for n Richmond city building ut the
jamestown. Exposition. This was referred
under the rules to the Committee on
Finance, and the body adjourned.
x Session in Detail.
President Peters called the body to
order at $40 o'clock, and more tlian,
a quorum of members responded.
IS, The gfirst matter called up was the
ordinance fixing the tax rate in the
annexed territory at sL40. so as to
make it conform to the rate prevailing
in tho rest of the city.
The matter was purely formal. and
was agreed to on roll-call without OBJ
lection or debate. s+
The contract made by the Commit,
tee on Grounds and Buildings with a.
G. Bedford for converting the Third
Market into an auditorium, without
seats, at s13,4S1, caused discussion
Some of the members Thought seats
should have been provided for in this,

ADJUSTMENTS
"HooLIGAN" coMINa TO TOWN.

Another dramatizatiOn of the Sun
day comic supplement Is due This
time 1t is 'Hooligan" who is portrayed
under the calcium light, the "HooIi-
gan" who manages to get into all sorts
Of trouble only to bob up again mex
week with the same smiling counte
nance. In his stage clothes. "Hooli-
gan" has a broad expansive smile
that is as good as a tonic: and while
the plot will not tire anyone. the COM
edy is there. for all OF Hooligan's mis-
haps for the past few years have been
boiled down into three hour enter
tainment. Yet there are claims made
for Hooligan this time that are some
what beyond the average musical farce
comedy. HOOligan is on earth for
pleasure. and nothing vulgar is allow
ed TO creep into his talk or manner
isms. He is not like the average tramp
of the tramp comedy He can sing ana
dance. and he can find trouble always
awaiting him, but when he laughs it
off it is only TO plunge into fresh dir
ficulties for the enjoyment of the au-
dience
The plot contains many skillfully
contrived situations and uproriously-
funny complications. The company
carries a band and orchestra. and
there will be a Hooligan band parade
at noon.
"Hooligan's troubles" will be pre-.
scented at the Doris opera house on
Saturday, January 18th.

NOVEL CURE FOR COLDS.
Healing Medication that is Breathed,
Giving Quick Relief.

II seeems just as ridiculous to put
medicine into the stomach to cure a
cold in the head or lungs az it does to
go out in the rain if we want to keep
dry.
The fact that many people right in
Phoenix cough and hawk and shuttle
for days and weeks after they treat a
cold with the usual stomach dosing.
shows how valueless are the ordinary
cough and cold cures.
The right way to cure a cold i'm the
head or a cough and irritation in the
throat and lungs is by breathing
Hyomeis medicated air. Put a few
drops of Hyomei i'm the neat pocket in
haIer that comes with every outfit and
breathe this healing air for a few times
and immediate relief will be noted.
The medication goes right to the spot
where the disease germs are located
and renders them harmless i'm the flu
ture.
At the same time the soothing and
healing effects of Hyomei on the irri-
tated mucous membrane give quick re-
lief and the cough or cold is broken
up.
The best evidence of the great value
of Hyomei in curing coughs. colds and
all bronchial troubles is the fact that
the Larson Drug Co. give an absolute
guarantee with every outfit they sell,
that if / does not give satisfaction,
the money will be refunded.
a complete Hyomei outfit, consisting
of a bottle of Hyomei. the inhaler and
a medicine 'dropper. costs but 81, white
extra bottles of Hyomei, if needed. can
be obtained for only soc.

Effect of Imaoination.

Imagination has great deal to do
with some cases of Sickness said a
doctor in st. Joseph's hopsital, quoted
in the Philadelphia Record. ''There
was a woman who used to come here
regularly, complaining that she had
swallowed pin and that it was stuck
u her throat, hurting her dreadfully.
Week after week we assured her that
sc could, find no pin, but still she
came. At last we determined to sat
= her, SO we told her to open her
.2Uth wide and shut her eyes. Then
placed a pin between a pair of
l3Iceps and ran it down her throat
ter fo0Iing around awhile we drew
: out and declared that we had at
last succeeded in extracting the trou-
h.es0me pin. She got up, declared that
she felt better and went away. I saw
her later, and she declared that the
Hain in her throat had entirely disap-
peared."

ume Of an encyclopedia was under
his arm.
He sank into a seat and, with deep
sigh, opened the book. He lost no time
in finding his place, but he seemed far
from satisfied. Soon he turned in great
evaporation to his neighbor and re-
marked:
Now, wouldn't that jar you? I've
been paying for this encyclopedia for
the past two years and never had occa-
sion to use it before. A new client, a
big tanner, is going to call on me this

SUGAR From RauS.

A chemist tossed a handful Of rags
into a bowl.
''Out Of this ounce of rags" he said,
Il am going to make an ounce Of
sugar.
He shredded the rags with a sharp
steel comb into a fluff. He added to
them two ounces of concentrated sui
pluric acid Then he began to pound
the pale and Kissing mixture with a
mortar
"It must stand for two hours" he
said. "Then it must be filtered, then
It must be boiled half day, the wa
ter as it evaporates being continually
replaced. In the end you have an
o;-2ce Of pure grape sugar. Try this
experiment. 1t never fails. Save all
Your rags, and with the help of 81
worth of fuel, chemicals and labor you
can change every pound Of rags into

The Machinery They lacked.

The following story is told Of the
first appearance of paddle wheel
steamer on the Canton river many
years ago and of the native attempt
to copy her. A junk of course was in
every way superior to a foreign built
ship and only wanted paddle wheels to
completely eclipse this new craft. Ac-
cordingly paddle wheels were fitted to
a junk. funnel put up and some wood
lighted underneath. When the smoke
was coming up freely the anchor was
weighed, the wheels moved slightly
and off the junk started, to the delight
Of the proud owners. But their pride
was short lived, for a few collisions
soon proved to them that the tide
alone was responsible for the move
ment. So the anchor was let down
again and the situation discussed. The
next step was to put Chinese joss by
the fire, but with no better result. They
could not make out why their boat
failed to compare favorably with the
foreign boat until a wiseacre discov-
cred that q Chinese joss was no good
for that business, but it was foreign
devil that they wanted inside. None Of
them, however, had any idea how to
get one so they decided that the old
fashioned junk was far the best.

Weddinq "Cutups."

If there was ever an ''unwritten law
applying to the most unmitigated nui-
sance of modern times, it should cover
reprisals upon the brainless "cutups''
who consider wedding an appropriate
opportunity to display their asininity.
Just why the barbarous and idiotic
custom Of prosecuting brides and
grooms should survive in this day of
alleged civilization is not clear. In
most other respects men have outlived
the influence Of the anthropoid ape,
but the wedding jokers are still with
US to remind us of our origin.-Kansas

Thermopylae.

The word Thermopylae simply means
hot springs. and the famous pass
wher" the battle was fought between
the Spartans and the Persians took it's
name from the warm springs flowing
from the side Of the mountain. Their
nopylae was in ancient times the only
practicable route for an army between
northern and central Greece. The road
was only wide enough for single We
hicle. The morass to the east of the
pass has now become an alluvial plain
from the retreat Of the Maliac gulf, au
arm OF the Egean sea and the deposit
of the river Spercheus.
