vandenoexer Plan.

Alderman Vandenoever Is certainly
original. He now wants to bring pure
water from the upper Mouse river to
this city through tiles to a reservoir,
from whence it can be pumped into
the tower on top of the hill. He ex-
plains that this would prove to be a
saving Of $4,000 to the city, and City
Engineer Severance is looking into
the matter. Vandenoever believes
that It is possible to dam the river
easily to save a great deal of digging
for the tiles.

weeks ago a. Minneapolis land man

Psychology Of Broken Jaws.

1t might be bit of strange fact,
but you would be astonished to see
the broken jaws which are presented
at free institutions on holidays-elec-
ton day, New Years day and the
Fourth Of July. A great number of
fractured jaws are the result of quar-
rels among the very lowest classes. 1t
surprises me that the number Of bro
ken jaws is not on the increase on &C.
count Of the heated newspaper discus
sions that we are constantly having
on various topics of the day. 1t has
been said that were It not for the
mouth nine-tenths Of the gossip and
the mischief Of the world would be
prevented. And very often were 1t
not for the mouth there would be no
broken Jaws.-D. B. Breundlich in New
