PROTEINA IS
 DISCUSSION Council Talks of Food for Its Stock. PATENT FOODS ARE TOPIC Aldermen Speak of Feed For
 Municipal Mules. Adoption of Uniform Charter and ordi- nance to Borrow Money are
 subordinated--Adjou
 at Late Hour.

Of course the Council talked about the uniform charter bill which 1t adopted, and about, the borrowing of $100,000 to make the city solvent through October. but 1t was really about protein" which was believed by its promoters to be the very thing for the horse and mule things of the city, that the debate was caused
 Really the point was we'll taken. The idea was, as made by certain orators, that the stun might be good, but that it's goodness should not be proven on the city's stock. It was only when Aldermen Johnson and Parrish made heated speeches that other members sat up and took notice and laughed, in- cidentalIy. Then Alderman Sullivan, answering to the plea that the mules of Montgomery be not subjected to an un- known provender. said, with Dooley and others foregoing.
 "The mule, without pride of ances- try, without hope of postertty.
 After that there was little talk about the patent food which yet has Its merits and Is to receive serious con- sideration.
 The new Uniform Charter Bill was enacted into the city's affairs without concern. It was introduced by Presi' dent Gunter, it's author in the Leglsla- ture and was adopted without dissent. Previously. ordinances in regard to paving of North. Court Street, and oth- CT measures were introduced and pass ed C. pc @'. 9* 2s 't.
 The question of borrowing s100.0o0 was reported adversely by the Finance Committee, which said in brief that the matter ought to go back to the Mayor. It was stated by President Gunter that Mayor Teague had realised that the bargain made between the city and tn 6 First National Bank was not fair, and that he ought to make the loan on his own responsibility.
 T suggest said Mir. Gunter, that we pass a resolution that the Mayor borrow tine money, and if the Mayor thinks he is in honor bound to accept the proposition. let him accept; other- wise let him reject"
 There was question here, and later Mfr. Gunter said: Tt is e question on the letter. It is not our business to do the executive work"
 Finally on vote 1t was referred to the Mayor.
 Afterwards Alderman Johnson moved that the Mayor be authorized to mak c the loan at not more than per cent.
 The Council, after many debates of routine matters, adjourned.

THE WAYS OF THE LOAN SHARK.

Harper's Weekly.
 The loan shark is the most insinuat- ing and relentless of all the scourges that live upon those of little means Let there be one moments relaxation of the victims pledge to him, and he follows and hounds him until the full price be paid, year after year, If that be necessary, from place to place, or until flight or suicide shall have set him beyond the reach of his rapactty And the pursuit is the same. whether for an unpaid half dollar or an owing thousand; the loan shark exacts the last dirty penny of his demands.
 The borrower Is required to give numerous details as'to his family his- tory. his tparents' names, his marital conditions, two names of acquaintances of personal friends. and two of trades people After an interval of abouf two days, he receives notice to call, when, if the inquiries have produced satis- factory statements, he Is instructed to make over an assignment of hts salary and also to sign a power of attorney in favor of the shark, so that, in the event of his leaving his present em ployers, a change can be male in the name upon the papers and the name of the new employ 9r substituted. The borrower then receives a sum Tn dol- lars and cents.
 should the money be paid promptly, the borrower need not too soon con- Rratulate himself on his escape The shark is merely waiting. He knows the tendencies of human nature. Some day the victim will come back. When tha holiday season Is near his atten- ton is called to the fact that he or his friends will find a small amount handy for the purposes of his vacation. These letters follow each other month after month, always with some season. able reference In fact, 1t may be said that, once in the clutch of the money lender. the victim Is never free from reminders. He may have escaped, but the shark pursues him. And sooner or later, he generally goes back
 But if the loan be not promptly re- paid the sequel of catastrophes comes like a succession of thunderbolts. Per haps he is a day or two behindhand on an instalIment merely through mad vertence! he may escape with a small fine. But let him fall to repay. or re- quest an extension. First, comes the violent tirade at the office of the money lender, with threats and insults. Next morning a letter arrives. which says: If we are not paid by 5:30 this even ing we will file papers and have your salary attached" An hour later he hears this threat repeated over the tel ephone. That afternoon a collector calls. Another letter arrives the fol- lowing day, and another telephone call. Then comes the collector. And so the pursuit continues. until the debtor, harassed and broken down by these i'm. y,ortunitfes. collects the money in any nossibIA way. or leaves his employ ment to And peace in some obscure place where he can not be followed-or ss happens too frequently. he realizes that he is cornered and helpless and homeless. and kills himself.
