1t would do no good to gravel that
street. A catch basin should be put
in to take the surface water into the
sewer.
Mr.. Haas said there was only one
sidewalk along Twelfth street. Very
little had ever been done on that
street. They wanted a grade and a
curb line established. His motion
was carried.

of the Oregon Electric, said his COM
pany was ready to do its part.
Mr.. Downing said the people were
ready to petition for a permanent
improvement. The railroad company
was ready to act il the city would
establish a grade.
Mr.. Stolz said the grades must

There was too much water now to
get over the ground At next meet
ing the street committee would bring
in report.
Mr.. Low asked that the recorder
write the Southern Pacific company

dinance to compel the Southern Pa
cific Company to install alarm bells
at street crossings.
Mr.. Bayne moved that a four-foot
plank walk be constructed on lots

March 8.
Mr.. Jacobs said he was opposed to
four-foot walks as It gave an inn
preston of being poverty stricken.
Mr.. Downing said the resolution
was out of order as 1t conflicted with
the city ordinances. The council sus-
tained Mr.. Downing.
The resolution was referred back
to Mr.. Bayne with instruction to
draft IL in accordance with the side
walk ordinance.
Mr.. Goode moved the construction
of a crossing on Broadway on North
side of Belmont.
Mr.. Stolz said he favored referring
this to the street commissioner with
power to act. Carried.
Mr.. Jacobs asked whether the city
charter had any provisions that gave
a committee arbitrary power over
crosswalks.
Mr.. Bayne moved that the alder
man be referred to the city attorney
for information.
Mr.. Haas brought up the case OF
a citizen who had asked that his
house be wired by the General Elec-
trio company. He wanted to know
what rights the Portland General
Electric company had TO refuse to
connect up lights with a citizens S
house. He moved that the city at
torney be required to report as TO
the rights of the people.

payment of the bill. MIR. Dieck had
paid the bill once. He had bill for
$105. on which SEQ was paid and
$45 was mutliated currency sent to
Washington for refunding to the
hospital. This was clearly an at
tempt to make tho city pay bill
that was already paid. It was try
ing to collect a bill twice. He was
opposed to this way of doing.
Mr.. Gesner said the hospital could
sue the city, or its friends could go
around and "cuss the council" They
would find the city ready to stand a
suit
Mr. Gesner introduced an ordi-
nance to repeal the saloon license or.
dinance passed December 81, 1905.

Mr.. Bayne asked that a sum from
the $4,000 park fund of $400 be set
aside to install the new fountain that
had arrived for Marion Square. Mr..
Gesner wanted to know If this money
was absolutely necessary. He was
opposed to appropriating money un-
til the city had II.
After hearing the objections of Mr..
Gesner, Mr.. Bayne moved that 5000
be set aside for freight on the new
fountain, which had been bought by
the ladies' committee of Marion
Square. The warrant should be
drawn payable to the park board.
The motion was carried by Mr..
Bayne.

A MAD-DOG PANIC

Vinees the Owners.

owensville, Ind.-Not one dog is
left In Cynthiana, condition that
probably does not prevail in any town
Of 1000 inhabitants in the country.
The absence OF mans canine friends
Is due to the fact that an epidemic
OF hydrophobia RACES around the
town. A condition without parallel
in the state prevails there.
On account OF the extensive terri.
tory over which the epidemic RACES,
the attention OF prominent bacteriolb.
gists OF this and neighboring states
has been aroused and they are In.
vestigatinE and watching the progress
OF the disease with intense interest.
Naturally the persons living in the
infected district are greatly excited
and they have helped to keep the dis.
ease within its present confines by
submitting TO the mournful ordeal OF
having their dogs killed. a number of
which we're valuable.
So alarming did the situation be-
come at CynthianR that the town
council ordered the marshal, William
Montgomery. to patrol the streets
with a shotgun and kill every dog
running at large. The marshal, who
ls a veteran OF the civil war carried
out the edict without fidelity, and
every dog in the community fell be.
fore his aim. So popular has the
prejudice against dogs become that
it will be long time before they will
be tolerated here again.
So far the ravages of the mad dogs
have been confined to cattle and
horses, and luckily no person has been
bitten. though many have had mar.
row escapes.
