The Light Report.

On the 26th of last October the
city installed two ammeters for the
purpose of measuring the illuminat-
ing power of the arc lamps used to
light the streets. and tests were
made by Mr.. ID. A. Hunt. an electri-
clan, and also by policemen on duty
at night, as the current furnished.
These reports, which were submit
ter TO the city council at the regular
meeting of that body which was held
last Tuesday night, are conflicting.
To furnish the candle power required
by the contract with the city the am
meters should register 7 y kilowats.
and according to Mr.. Hunts report
they showed from 3-1o to 3-5,
while the report submitted by the
police showed that the registration
was never above Z LILO, and on some
occasions it went as low as 6 IL.
The reports were referred TO the
light committee. and this committee
will take the matter up with the
Columbus Railway, Light & Power
Company.
In explaining the discrepancy be-
tween the two reports, Mr.. Hunt stat
ed that most of his readings were
taken before midnight. while those
of the police were taken after that
hour, and that the voltage may have
been higher during the early hours
of the evening than later on in the
night.

Woodmen of the World.

As there are now some four hun
dred Woodmen in Columbus, we take
pleasure in copying from the National
Economist of Des Moines, Iowa, the
following notice of Sovereign Com
mander Root:
Col. Joseph Cullen Root, sover-
eign commander Woodmen of the
World and father of all Woodcraft,
will celebrate his sixty-fourth birth
day on the third of next month, and
every member of every order of the
Woodmen will bear the day in mind
to wish for him many happy returns,
while the numerous camps of the
Woodmen of the World are vieing
with each other to see who can ini-
tiate the largest class of candidates
as a birthday present to Father
Root Col. Root has lived to see
joy the satisfaction of having accom-
plished things as but few men in
this world are enabled to do. At
sixty-four years of age he is practic-
ally in the prime of life, hail and
hearty, an exceedingly young man
for his years. and has before him
many years of both usefulness and
pleasure. The editor of the Econo-
mist, as one of Col. Roots organiz-
ing deputies in the early days of the
Modern Woodmen. learned to love
the man and respect his genius. and
it gives us especial pleasure to be
able to chronicle his success and note
the pinnacle to which he has attain
ed. Sovereign Commander Root is
today the leader OF fraternaiists of
the world: the leader in thought.
the leader in action and the leader in
the esteem of his followers. Col.
Root probably knows personally more
of his fraternal children than any
other fraternal executive, and ii is a
source of pleasure to which he is Of
ten treated TO feel the hearty, SYM
pathetic response to an appeal or
even a suggestion TO his followers.
Were the Colonel's life to end today
success would be written over it.
Few men can say as much-none,
more. The Economist joins his host
OF friends In the hope that he may
see many returns of the day. know
ing as we do that each will crown
him with greater laureis."

Percy Elliott. Negro, Charged With
ltobbins Man in u Hack.


M f. Hight, employed as a driver
for the Bamberger Coal company, and
residing at 554 south Fourth West
street, called at the police station last
night and told rather remarkable
story OF a robbery, himself being the
victim. He said he had Just been paid
ST and Intended to use the money to
send his wife to Kansas for the holt
days. He said he had visited several
saloons and was drinking and finally
took Gag to go to his home. He said
that two negroes and a. soldier got into
the cab with him but that he did not
object to their presence. The cab drove
to Ninth West and Second South street
where. declares Hight, he was dragged
from the vehicle by the two colored
men and while the soldier stood by
WAS robbed of the $71.
Shortly after telling the strange tale,
Patrolnlan Howell arrested a negro
named Percy Elliott and the police are
now looking for the other negro and
the soldier The cab driver was located
and admitted that the robbery had
taken place and identified Elliott as
one Of the men in the cab. The colored
man denied this and Hight was unable
to positively identify him this morning
Elliott is being held pending further
investigation.

among the foremost in the bidding.
Tho sale commenced at 10 o'clock,
with auctioneer f. NJ. Onion at the

der the direction OF j. =. Caldwell.
representing the freight department Of
the Denver & Rio Grande, and G: r..

freight were lined up against the rear
side of the freight platform, and the
articles were taken from the car IN
the order they came, and were sold and
disposed Of in the manner most con-
venient in their handling.
Some of the freight has been heiu
for year or more, 1T being the Gus
