City Council Meeting.

All the alderman except Mayer
were present at the regular weekly
meeting of the city council, last
night.
Outside the regular routine busi-
ness, including the auditing of a
number of claims, the most impor-
tant matter taken up was the laying
over for one week the approval of
the acceptance of the street car
line franchise, which was adopted
some time ago.
The acceptance filed was signed
only by two of the three parties to
whom the franchise was granted, as
individuals, and in a lengthy opinion
the city attorney held that the
acceptance was not within the terms
of the franchise.
The city attorney also filed an
opinion to the effect that the city
council is the proper body to
approve liquor license bonds, instead
of the mayor.
The claim of the Jerrard Plumbing
Company for discount on part of the
paper in which they were paid for
the sewer contract was also the SUBJ
ject for an opinion by the legal
advisor, in which the council was
advised not to allow same.
The library board presented a
report recommending the closing of
the public library unless funds were
available for new books, and on
motion the the board was voted

AS the Pioneer understands the

the Indians of the Red Lake reserve
are granted the permission to cut

AT the conference with the

PHILADELPHIA DOCTOR
TELLS OF APPENDICITIS
Says Disease Is Something OF a Joke,
and Many Cases Cured Without
Surgery.

Duluth News Tribune: James E.
Wilson, NJ. D., of the Medical
Society, Philadelphia, Pa, who is in
the city demonstrating upon the
treatment of disease at the various
hospitals, states that there is not as
much appendicitis in the country as
there was two years ago.
Two years ago it was quite the
thing" said Dr.. Wilson last night at
the Mckay, for people in all walks
of life to have appendicitis. In the
majority of cases the people affected
had some minor ailment or some
thing worse and palmed it off as
appendicitis that they might be in
the swim.
Todaywe find conditions reversed
and a spade being called spade.
tt is no longer fashionable to have
appendicitis for the general public
has come to the conclusion that the
average case of the disease is a joke.
Doctors, in treating appendicitis,
have made wonderful strides during
the past rs month and it is possible
now to cure the most serious cases
without the use of a surgeons knife.
A little medicine and skillful treat
ment as a rule result benefcially
without any resort to surgery. This
probably has had something to do
with the falling off in the number of
appendicitis cases as there is a
certain percentage of humans who
think it quite an honor to go upon
the operating table for a surgical
operation"
