Ordinance Ordering an
Election.
ISOLATION HOSPITAL PLAN
FEDERAL HEIGHTS DISPUTE is
FINALLY ADJUSTED.

The city council last evening did not
take up the matter of calling a special
election for the purpose Of issuing
S6OO,OOO worth of bonds for water and
sewer purposes This is the second
postponement that has been had in
the consideration of this ordinance. and
both times It has been moved by
American" members of the council.
Last evening when the recorder read
the ordinance by title President Davis
said: 1T will be laid over one week"
And nobody objected.
1t is minated that at least one of
the American" COuncilmen will vote
against the ordinance, and as Council
man Ferry was absent last evening the
others of the party did not want to
take chance with only eight present
and eight needed TO carry it through.
For Isolation Hospital.

joining in providing an isolation hospi-
TAI Tor scarlet fever and diphtheria pa
TENTS was brought up by DR.. M. r.

submitted a proposition from st.
Marks hospital which is agreeable TO
the county commissioners.
by the agreement the hospital agrees
TO build two pavilion hospitals west of
the main building and to equip them.
For all patients sent there either the
city or county must pay 81 a day and
each must pay $40 a month additional
for a ten-year period. The city is also
to furnish antitoxin free. The propo-
sitiOn was submitted to the sanitary
committee.
Story of d Cow.
j. G.. Pierce, $50 e street, sent IN a
unique petition. Pierce had a COW in

The water department was not ap-

Pierce has been paying the required
water tax of 81 a year for the departed
animal He does not want to do il
any longer and asks the council to see
that this tax is cut out of his water as
SesSment hereafter. Nothing as to the
present whereabouts of the COW is dis
closed, but it is evident that she has
been a constant source of revenue to
the city.
The matter of supplying water for

MANY MINOR MATTERS CONSlD.
Erred BY COUNCIL.

The arbitrary grades established by the
city engineer without consideration of the
topography of the streets was again the
subject of a protest at the council meet
ing last evening.
Because of the efforts of this depart
ment 10 draw grade line with the as
sumption that a street should be laid
out like railroad track, the city has been
frequently sued for damages and the
courts have during the past two years
awarded approximately $4,000 to injured
property owners.
The latest example of this policy is the
establishment of a sidewalk grade on
A street.
From the council proceedings last even
ing 1t would appear that no profile of this
work has ever been approved by that
DOdy, as the profile was sent in for con-
