MAYOR vtT0Es MUNICIPAL COURT AcT
Considering Resolution Placed, ,Salar-
les of Judge and Clerk loo stiiah.

ScS u JuO9e duO CseSN UOO 0s9Us
Mayor Hawkinson handed the
signers of the petition for change
Of the municipal court system to
come under the law of 1905 lemon
at the council meeting Tuesday eve-
ming, vetoing the resolution passed
at the former meeting. His reasons
as succinetly stated were :thathe
considered the salaries as set-$2OO
per-month for the judge aud $50 per
month for the clerk-as too high,
and recommended the proposed
change be left to the Home Rule
Charter Commission for adjust
ment. The message was accepted,
but owing to the absence of two
members of the council was laid on
the table until such time as all
members are in attendance.
The resolution authorizing the
awarding of contract to J. p.
Rooney for the construction of &C.
;ment walks around the public Ii
brary was also rescinded, it being
considered too late in the season to
commence such work.
The payment of $12O65O to w. +.
Kern and $500 to c. c. Butler on
sewer contracts was authorized, the
respective contracts covered having
been completed and accepted.
But one bid was submitted for the
installation of city scales, and the
contract was awarded the Howe
Scale Co. at ts$3l0, this price includ.
ing testing weights. The scales
will be placed on Cleveland avenue
instead of in the rear of the city
hall building, with extension regis
tering beam in the clerks office.
Three bids were submitted tor the
proposed combination hook and
ladder truck, the w. S. Mott Co. for
$3.50, the Northern Fire Apparatus
Co. tor $3.50, and the American La
France Fire Engine Co. for $3.50.
Likewise three bids were submit
ted for the proposed No. steamed,
the figures of the W. S. Mott Co. be.
ing $500, of the American LaFrance
Fire Engine Co. $500, and of the
Ahrens Fire Engine Co. $500. The
bids on both hook and ladder truck
and steamer were referred to the
mayor and committee on FIRE de-
partment for report at next meeting.
The committee on police to whom
had been referred the matter of the
installation of police registry sys-
tenn made verbal report of progress,
and of obstacles found thereto, the
matter remaining in their hands
for definite adjustment.

Eats Herself to Death.

Philadelphia, Pa.-It was unfortunate
for ~15-year-old Mary Eckart that she
loved good things SO we'll, and that h
could not restrain her appetite.
Mary died yesterday at 3411 North
Twentieth street, where she was
ployed as a domestic, after an illness
of four days. Her physicians were IN
doubt as to the exact cause OF death
until %coroner's detectives investigated.
Then they found that Mary last Thurs
day ate a little more between meals
than she usually did. This is what n
ate:
Two large bowls of gelatin, one doz-
en- bananas, six oranges, n pound or
molasses candy, one pound of sweet
cakes.
These various articles all followed
upon an unusually hearty dinner. She
was taken sick the following day and
w rallied.
Mary had eleven brothers and sisters,
who live with their parents at 20o1
Westmoreland street.
"Her appetite was always her great
trouble" said her father to Detective
Paul yesterday. "She had an unusual
appetite, and sometimes would eat as
much as the eleven other children to-
gether. I told her a number Of times to
eat less, but she did not seem to do

Dust laden with the germs of con-

by all who use the streets, but disease
is not developed unless the germs find

With people having catarrh there Is
AN ideal culture medium for these
germs, as the irritated membrane and
weakened tissues is a hot-bed where
germs must thrive multiply until
they are numerous and active.
If you have catarrh. you should use

with the air you breathe, directly fol-
lowing the destroying germs that have
